#plushie problems

Hhhhhhh....

One Overly Sensitive Dragon Age Fan reblogged my Dragon Age Fandom post about them freaking out over the skin color on a doll and then IMMEDIATELY BLOCKED ME (ie I can’t reblog the post to respond or even save it as a draft) so I couldn’t respond so they could come off as some high and mightly avenger for brown game characters.

This was their post (and you can probably find it if you click the notes thing on the original post:

“I mean, you can trivialize it if you want and make it sound like people are upset because oh no a toy isn’t the right color but what you’re actually saying is that people are upset that they made a non-white character white. And there are plenty of people who roll their eyes and don’t care (or it wouldn’t happen so much) but maybe be honest about what you’re complaining about. Other people being upset a non-white character is now suddenly white.” 

How very interesting, this might have opened up a fun debate, had they not decided to be an entitled, bratty twatwaffle and block me.

So, My rebuttal even though they won’t see it but might send someone to check for them like the sniveling little coward they are:

He’s not white. The plush is NOT white.

His felt color is darker than the usual felt color they use for ‘white’ plushies. I have plushies like him (UFO Catchers) and he is noticeably darker.

Also this isn’t as big a deal as everyone is making it out to be. You would think from the way they’re talking about it that this plushie possibly being a little lighter than in game would suddenly negate and destroy his model in the game and comic. As if Bioware’s staff released an article announcing “SORRY FOLKS! I KNOW HE’S BROWN IN THE GAME BUT SANSHEE USED A GENERIC LIGHTER BROWN FELT SO JUST FORGET ALL THAT! HIS NAME IS NOW DONNY PETERS FROM JERSEY!”

Does that sound ridiculous? Cuz it is.

I as well love how you tell me I’m not being ‘honest’ about my ‘complaining’. I literally posted something I observed and you act as if I attacked them. Not to mention the fact you felt the need to mention that ‘plenty of people’ don’t care as if I had accused the whole fandom of rioting instead of just pointing out the over sensitive fans.

If people don’t like the plush, whatever, fine. Etsy is your friend. I will be buying the little guy though because he’s cute as fuck.
