"Skylanders" What the hell is this lodsemone crap?

[Tetro Block]

"Buy the new skylanders..."

What are you doing? We don't want another company getting lodsemone by getting children's parents to splash cash. Seriously get a life and do real business, don't just lure children into your trap and keep them.

In my school there's this dumb kid, (He's a few years younger than me) that won't stop going on about skybaiters, and he wastes his pocket money every month on buying some stupid plastic figure for £20 that probably only cost 50p to make.

Why do we let these companies do this? When will we stand up and stop this nonsense? I don't mind most companies but come on, targeting children just to get their parents buck?

And now Disney's trying to do it with their crappy Disney infinity. And Amazon is very cheeky with their kindle fire, allowing kids to simply tap and pay for something that's $300 with the touch of a button.

I've had enough of this stuff, seriously it disgusts me, hence I posted.

Doesn't matter, it's still relevant.

that's pretty much the goal of toy companies, yes

On that note, I do agree, they could be good games but the whole figures thing is idiotic.

Then again... There are Amiibos

I know it's been around for a while, but I saw Freek's topic about Nintendo trying to do the same, it just disgusts me.

Do you mean that in a good way or a bad way? Because if it's in a good way, I agree.

[Rigel]

and candy companies

Haribo Sugar Free Gummy Bears, anyone?

[Reshiram]

Either way you wanna take it, was just putting it out there as they're quite close to those other things.

I meant it as a good thing, as I have six of those myself.

[Headcrab Zombie]

What is this about and why is it a problem?
Until I know that, all I can say is
