via Irune Chronicle A toy pet in likeness of our environment suits from a Serifian toy manufacturer has prompted Protectorate citizenry to the streets and extranet to display their disappointment. The culprit to this outrage began to make rounds on Aru’s extranet servers some weeks ago, but the issue reached public consciousness when the Irune Civil Advocacy took notice yesterday, condemning the toy and its manufacturer, which are based out of the Terminus world of Serifia. “We are not animals. To equate us to such is devolasizing. The ignorance of Playtime is glaring. We politely request that they retract their product or rebrand it in acknowledgement of their error.” said Var Molax of the Irune Civil Advocacy. Playtime Ltd. and their parent company Sleck Partnership have yet to comment on the issue. The “Aru Buddy” toy at the center of this controversy is a quadrupedal robot operated by a basic VI chip, that plays sound clips of a dawnstalker. It is stylized and coloured after the most common pressure suit used by volus when going off-world. According to the most recent retrievals from Playtime’s product catalogue, the toy was first introduced in the second quartile of 2189.
