People think this Costume Disney Brought out for the Moana Film is Racist

Halloween is fast approaching and Disney have just brought out a costume for the character Maui from their film Moana which is set to come out at the end of this year.

Buuut people immediately reacted to this costume saying Disney are portraying brown face/black face because of it's dark complexion and cultural tattoos.

Disney's advertising this costume as an "allover Maui body tattoo screen art", and people are not happy with them involving the cultural appropriations and are uncomfortable with the use of a brown skin colour in particular.

You can see what people have to say below and the costume itself:

Many people are Rightfully upset about this new piece of #Moana merch. Cultures are NOT costumes. pic.twitter.com/J4R5W9ZLsy

cosplaying things like moana is one thing - cosplay shouldn't be limited to what ur race is. but literally wearing a brown skin costume? no
