Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
Mattel designs, manufactures, and markets a broad variety of toy products worldwide, which are sold to its customers and directly to consumers.
Segment Data
In the first quarter of 2024, Mattel announced an organizational change that resulted in the American Girl business being integrated into Mattel's North America commercial organization. Such integration resulted in a change to Mattel's operating and reportable segments. Mattel's new reportable segments are: (i) North America; and (ii) International. The prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The North America and International segments sell products across Mattel's categories, although some products are developed and adapted for particular international markets, and American Girl products are only sold in North America.
The following tables present information regarding Mattel's net sales, operating income, and assets by reportable segment. The corporate and other expense category includes operating costs not allocated to individual segments, including charges related to incentive and share-based compensation, corporate headquarters functions managed on a worldwide basis, the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on intercompany transactions, and certain severance and other restructuring costs. It is generally impracticable for Mattel to present net sales by categories, brands, or products, as trade discounts and other allowances are generally recorded in the financial accounting systems by customer.
