DarkHooves


I'm still here; I watch you play. But I can't think of much to say.

A rant about Equestria Girls Minis · 8:19pm Oct 14th, 2018

We interrupt this program to bring you this message.

So I was checking out a toy store, (as you do when you're 25 years old with nothing to do on a sunday...) and what do I find? The Equestria Girls Minis Mall collection Movie Theatre! Price 399SEK, down from 689.

I took a long time vacillating in the store...

I really want the Juniper Montage mini. I really like her. And I know what you might be thinking. "But DarkHooves. You like all the asshole characters!" and that's true. But I actually sympathise with her. If I got forced into working at a cinema counter I'd be miserable too. And If I got a magic mirror I'd do the same she did. Just use it to clean up shit and other menial stuff.
Her character has potential and I hope she return. (HA! Like that will ever happen!!!)

Anyway.
I want the mini, but it's exclusive to this massive package full of shit!

Now I'm sure it's fun to play with, and the idea of adding a tablet to simulate a kino is a really clever idea. But I don't want it.
Plus it comes with tons of these small, plastic food crap, which I just hate. Clothes and accessories I get, but simulating eating with the minis sounds dumb to me. And I'd love to know how much Hasbro paid the Health and Safety regulators to be allowed a 5+ rating. They're just so small and so many that they'll get lost like crazy. Or eaten... Or showed up a nose...!
I can only imagine they're leftovers from some previous toy venture that Hasbro's desperate to get rid of.

If I hade made this I would have kept the popcorn machine, the popcorn buckets, the tablet hold obviously and the ticket stand (but have it be detachable.)
The actualy counter, cashier and all the food (Though I guess some drinks would be fine) I'd replace with another row of seats. Just three of them is pitiful.

So did I buy it?

Yeah...

...

I suppose 400SEK for a doll isn't too much for an exclusive... But all the extra crap certainly stings.
Then again, I can't really brag about have it mint in a box without it...
