Hasbro Selfie Sequence is giving us a brand new option to interact with the followers. We’re simply scratching the floor relating to customization, and we’re excited to see the place this new, progressive platform takes us.
I’ve plenty of ideas on this. For starters, they don’t point out the price of this within the press launch. That at all times has me a little bit frightened. I can 100% see this be Hasbro charging an arm and a leg. Second, I don’t suppose Hasbro has the very best observe document with face sculpts. Generally they get it proper, however I really feel like (no less than with Energy Rangers) more often than not the faces simply look a little bit (or extra, relying on the character) off. Primarily based on the pictures shared, these don’t look that significantly better total. There are additionally privateness issues to think about.
All that negativity on the market, I do suppose that is additionally actually cool. I do know that I’ve dreamed of being the Pink Ranger since I used to be about 4, and this could let me have an motion determine of the Pink Ranger with my face on it. A plethora of followers are going to like this for that cause. So many people have dreamed of being sure characters or in particular roles and this helps feed that dream just a bit bit.
What do you suppose? Is that this a nightmare ready to unfold or one thing actually cool?
