Petition for show accurate ponies. Do it for the sake of @pony http://www.change.org/petitions/hasbro-toys-games-produce-show-accurate-mlp-fim-plush-toys
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 21:04:22 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash if they go show accurate there goes my hope to buy them
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 21:06:07 UTC from web-
@purpleenchilada Not when we get all third world country orphan children making them.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 21:10:56 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash you dont know how prices work here. A 5 dollars pony is not less than R$ 20 here
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 21:36:45 UTC from web-
@purpleenchilada @abigpony Sure. I know. But we don't hit a beehive thinking it will make it go away... At least i don't.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 21:42:43 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash my problem with this is just that i cant buy these bleh toys, who'd say an accurate on
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 21:45:21 UTC from web-
@purpleenchilada huh? If Hasbro made accurate ones they would be like 50 bucks, tops. not like 1000. give or take 500.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 21:59:56 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash in your country. for exempole, the price of twilight's ballon is about R$130, that is almost 70 dollars
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:02:28 UTC from web-
@purpleenchilada Well not really everyone wants a balloon so it goes up in price a bit?
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:06:53 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash nope, the pink celestia is this price too, all the big pony toys are at least this price
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:09:17 UTC from web-
@purpleenchilada pink celestia, #donotwant But I suppose you make a point.

@firestormdangerdash No, it's just that entertainment stuff is priced really stupidly in Brazil in general.

@firestormdangerdash we've been whining about it forever. We've made countless petitions and such. Can't we just settle on the newest wave of plushies? They look really quite good.

@firestormdangerdash gotcha :) I haven't been on as regularly lately to be honest so it's no wonder you've missed seeing me.I think I've just been taking a break sort of.

@firestormdangerdash this is stupid and whoever made it is stupid for thinking it will do anything.

@thelastgherkin Not good once silly filly.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 21:43:06 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash I dunno, the new ones still in development that've been covered on EqD a couple times look pretty show-accurate to me.

@bitshift this :http://www.krazykingsoftoys.com/images/detailed/1/My-Little-Pony-Friendship-Is-Magic-Pinkie-Pie-Plush.jpg isn't really close to that : http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5hacruKEv1rxnac8o1_500.jpg
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 21:56:47 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash Thing is, that's not the new wave that I'm saying _is_ an improvement. Not denying that it's bad, but it's not representative of what they're working on now. (In fact, as far as I can tell, that design has already been around for over a year.)

@firestormdangerdash No, these are the new ones (albeit in an unfinished state, hence the lack of mane on some of them): http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_JCE19p1r1g/UE6U77qtq0I/AAAAAAAA3gQ/S5JAcHuC1ic/s1600/Clipboard01.jpg

@bitshift @thelastgherkin Sooo they added spihgetti to the head, enlarged the head, and added hoof prints. #ohimsold

@firestormdangerdash These are new. You will find that they are a marked improvement. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-72SNJupGlxg/T_Siko6DxJI/AAAAAAAAvHI/tLzOwigluPY/s1600/photo.JPG

@thelastgherkin @bitshift those manes

@firestormdangerdash you realize A) the new plushes don't even look remotely close to that and B) how expensive it would be to switch production to accomodate that?
-
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:12:06 UTC from web
-
@firestormdangerdash they can't afford to risk that. No one buys their plushies as it is so how can they be sure that they'll get their money's worth.
-
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:18:11 UTC from web
-
@firestormdangerdash not everyone petitioning is going to buy them. You're all just self-entitled fans who want it not realizing what it takes to run this stuff.

@firestormdangerdash It's impossible to do something to the level of quality that the fanmade plushies have _without_ charging an exhorbant amount. Unless you're expecting Hasbro to take a large hit to the wallet to appease a small minority.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:19:07 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Foriegn orphan child workers. They do more for less. :)
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:20:07 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash Uh, that won't even come close to the quality you're demanding.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:20:41 UTC from web-
@redenchilada You never seen a little mexicon child have you? They scare me with talent.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:21:30 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash It's not going to happen. Just face facts. Hasbro is a large company, and they're not going to put forth the extraordinary effort in a fruitless attempt to appease a small minority of their customers who buy their stuff anyway.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:23:54 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Duh. you did catch my comment about hitting beehives right?
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:24:53 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash They're not "hitting a beehive" by not doing it. The fandom isn't going to get up in arms over the official toys being slightly off. Man up and blow the money on a fan-made plushie if you _insist_ on accuracy, because Hasbro is a business, not a democracy.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:28:09 UTC from web-
@redenchilada it's for the lulz, what dont you get? now stop complaining of a link that is an option of signing.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:30:53 UTC from web-
@firestormdangerdash It doesn't seem like a joke when you're taking the time to argue back to anyone who tells you it's silly.
Sunday, 23-Sep-12 22:31:36 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Nah, it's just science. Every Action has an Equal and Opposite Reaction

@firestormdangerdash Because, like it or not, I saw dozens of people with those "terrible" plushies at the convention I went to two weeks ago.

@thatonestocking I've seen come conflicting stuff about the ratio of bronies to the target demographic. http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/04/season-2-finale-sets-rating-records.html According to these numbers, averaged between the two finale episodes, a little more than 20% of all viewers are 18-49 years old. I wouldn't call that small.
