So if most toys are bought by adults now when characters like rose tico or Lando or Parker from alien shelfwarm and go on discount it’s not because kids simply don’t like these characters it’s racist man baby adult toy collectors(you) avoiding them
>>
>>11602858
Those are boring toys that nobody wants.
>>
>>11602858
Yeah, so?
>>
>>11602858
100% of people who buy toys have always been adults, children don’t have jobs. Kids just ask their parents for what they want.
>>
>>11602867
This, I’ll buy whatever the fuxk I want thanks

Stop replying to yourself. This is embarrassing.

>>11602896
how do you know that? im legit curious
>>
>>11602858
Like >>11602865 said. Those were boring or pointless. There is a big share of behaviour and preferences between kids and adults. I mean kids and adults are very much alike.

>Adult collectors are 1/3 of the buyers, which makes them a lrger demographic than children
So if adult collectors are 1/3 which is a larger number than children, then who's in the other 2/3 of the sales? Is there another demographic besides children and adults that I missed out on?

>it’s racist man baby adult toy collectors(you) avoiding them
Every kid had Lando and Mace. No one wants Finn because he's a racist hostile asshole, and no one wanted Rose because Rian Johnson deliberately took an attractive actress and made her ugly and unlikeable "to subvert expectations." But hey it's easier to blame racism than have a constructive look at the whole situation.
>>
>>11602858
For the record Holdo is the SW sequel trilogy figure that rotted in stores the longest. Long after Finn and Rose got cleared out, there are stores that STILL have Holdo figures. But that White woman doesn't fit your narrative to smear people as racist, so let's selectively ignore it, right?

Owning black people was outlawed, and owning toys of black people sounds very confederate coded. I don't feel comfortable having a shelf full of black people doing my bidding. I don't want to pretend I'm a cotton plantation owner.
As for Rose Tico, Moonhead made her frumpy and undesirable by dressing her in a potato sack instead of a cool outfit like Leia's Both outfit from ESB. Her sister didn't pegwarm because she was in a flight suit, but she was also fridged in the first 10 minutes of the movie. Maybe you should blame Rian Johnson and his obvious vendetta against Asians due to being friendzoned by the cute hafu girl in highschool. Stop Asian Hate.
>>
>>11602858
>Parker from alien
The figure should have come with some sort of bonus, but nobody wants to discuss the bonus situation.

There's a part of me that feels the same way too with feeling uncomfortable with owning a plastic Black man when given how over-sensitive certain types are (especially racially-hostile pricks like Boyega), and how easily they misread even the most harmless of situations.
>>
>>11602858
don't call me a man baby you bitch.
>>
>>11603012
Don't take it personally. OP is just another White liberal who thinks he's putting on his Superman cape to defend the Black and Asian people from White people without caring that those people didn't buy Rose or Finn either (annd there's enough of them to make both figures sell out 100 times over). He also doens't care that White-woman Holdo was the worst-selling figure and some stores still have that crap.
>>
>>11603014
OK it looks like /toy/ has a new bitch to add to NECAnon and Subjectanon. This is a board for discussing toys, not arguing or slinging shit at other poeple you don't like.

And for the record I am not one of the ones crying about tariffs. Toy prices have done nothing but rise for a decade now, and they would have gone up without the tariff excuse anyway.
>>
>>11603014
Ok glorpgleed. Do you even own any toys?

How haven't you recognized Athena anon? He's been doing this same song and dance for years.
>>
>>11603019
NTA but I'm not autistic enough to recognize patterns like that. Also way more than half the time I'll see someone quoting a deleted post calling them Athena.

I'm more amazed that nobody at Disney or Hasbro understood that putting a regular ol' person in beige coveralls just never sold as a toy at all.

In the old fashioned Kenner days they would have packaged Rose with some giant oversized spark shooting electric lightning claw arm that fried stormtroopers. And then made a vehicle for her that never appeared in any movie like some walker thing with bog arms to grab enemies. Basically take a boring ass character and turn it into shit a kid would want to buy. Because a normal person in beige coveralls fucking sucks.
>>
>>11603066
It worked. That was the first figure from the line I got because it looked cool.
>>
>>11603066
That's what happens when millennials are put in charge anon, everything is lame and gay just like it used to be in the good ol' boomer days of soulful boring 5poa crap
>>
>>11603058
I know the words that you're using, but the combination of them confounds me immensely. It also made me cringe audibly.
>>
>>11603069
The boomers are still in charge. They refuse to pass the torch. Millennials control fuck all. Until they die, you're stuck with boomers making everything shit thanks to their brains rotting from old age.
>>
>>11603066
Indeed i had like 4 JP dudes from kenner that i didn't know who the fuck they where
That one one you posted
Some dude in a elevator
Some dude with a magnet in the chest to stick magnets
And a injured dude

One of these two is the brand manager over the whole GI Joe brand, and is the boss of the other. The other is just an employee. I'll let you figure out which is which.

As a woke company Hasbro is one of those that promotes "women in leadership" everywhere they can. So older seasoned/experienced workers having to bow down to young "superiors" who decide everything on what they feel is the norm there.
>>
>>11603087
Clearly Americans have a wokism problem and needing to make everything lame and gay for the lame and gay agenda it's why movies suck so much and have the men bow down to the woman.

Since I want to fuck Rose Tico, I would get one. I couldn’t find a good one.

I want to see Rose naked. I bet she has a cute little chubby asian dumpling body.

Rian Johnson had the chance to make Rose Tico figures that we would buy, but he decided to cover this in a potato sack.
>>
>>11604629
Kelly Marie Tran is not an ugly woman. Rian Johnson is just one of those liberals who are offended by beauty and wants everything to be intentionally ugly. And I feel bad for her because much like Ahmed Best who played Jar Jar she took criticisms of Rose Tico as a personal attack on herself without understandind that people hated the character but had nothing against the actress who played her at all.
>>
>>11604629
>>11604638
She looks like a thicc Lucy Liu.
>>
>>11604638
Which is odd, seeing he cast her because she looked like a girl he wanted to fuck back in middle school.
>>
>>11604638
Pretty sure both her and Best got death threats sent to them for playing those characters.
>>
>>11605862
nta I think they did. I'm not a fan of the show or whatever but I was super happy to see Best being a live action Jedi.
>>
>kids dont like the characters, fine
>adults dont like the characters, racist!
>>
>>11605862
Of course they did, for years.

Because of people like you, refusing to adapt to the times.


You got rose tico removed from the sequel because of the sheer backlash at Asian janitor girl who says "choosing differently is how we win" in a war movie jerking off your favorite space Republicans.
>>
>>11606221
They seem pretty good at making you post here with the same comment over and over.
>>

>people like you
I only said that they received death threats, not that I made them.
