Way too many times I have to explain what this is TwT

Guys let's make rifle spinning popular!!!!!

I nearly botched the last big toss. Oh well.

Back in around 2025(?) when the Medkit plush released, I was amazed how there was so much detail. The coat that showed his naked back (teehee), the stitch lines and everything. It was all very detailed, high quality, and very squishy. I was very pleased.

However, when I ordered the Banhammer plush, I was quite surprised that the plush was just... a texture drawn on a model of a plush. No detail whatsoever. Just a JPEG. I would not be able to know it was Banhammer if it wasn't by the side horns, and the horns in general. The blindfold wasn't even able to move at all, it was just a part of his head. The thing just lacked creativity and was a texture slapped onto a model.

Then, the subspace plush & the Broker 2.0 came around and decided to buy them because they're my favorite characters aswell, they looked promising too!

But I was disappointed aswell when they arrived. Broker, of course it being a 2.0 plush, it has the design recycled from its first version. No surprise, just like with any other 2.0 plush in the Makeship store, but it still looked bland. Why am I saying this? Because if they were able to make the Medkit plush so good, why does it look like that? But not going to say anything else because it was made before the Medkit plush.

Nów let's move to the Subspace plush. Of course, him being Medkit's evil ass twin, I kind of expected to also have some detail, especially with his cool mask, but oh well. Still a JPEG on a model, without cool stitches or the amount of detail Medkit had. Also, the inconsistency! So the rot on his face is stitched and made 3D, but then his hand just is also just a JPEG pasted onto his hand! And they also could've made a mouth, but the mask was stitched.

I have no idea if this is Makeship's lowering of quality fault, introducing new regulations to producers that they can't add detail to their plush... (If it's this case, then I take back everything)

Or the Phighting team's fault.

I apologie for my language, but I think "slop" is a fitting term for what's happening to these plushies. Copy&Paste, modify it a little bit & profit. Pretty much the Apple move.

Either way, I'm disappointed with the quality. I doubt I want want to spend 35 bucks for each release of my very much favorite characters, if they're going to be textures slapped onto a plush, and it being called a day, when there was and IS still a clear possibility to add detail to their plushies like bands or eyepatches, or clothing itself. Medkit's coat is still amazing, I wish Broker had that, or Subspace had their eyepatch not exactly detachable, but just so you could peek into their eye, etc...

I very much appreciate though the team's effort for making the plushies possible! And I know they might be busy with other stuff, and I'm hope I'm not offending anyone typing this out. It is just my opinion on this situation. Sorry for sounding like a bad review from an angry mom on Craigslist :(

Kind regards to both the devs, fandom and everyone making this entire thing possible!

PD: Writing on a phone is very difficult!

DO NOT USE DEEPL ANYMORE. IT IS PURE AI SLOP NOW.

Deepl was one of those translators that seemed accurate and a perfect switch from Google Translate. As a polyglot with shitty memory, it’s easy for me to forget basic words and have to use a translator to get it back into my brain.

But ever since generative AI went on and ruined half of careers both in the internet and physically around the world, DeepL has DEFINETLY decreased it’s quality.

I wanted to go and translate “antzokia” real quick because basque is one of the most difficult languages I know (and it’s non-Indoeuropean too) and it spits this typical chatGPT stuff out. “I’m sorry, but I can’t help you with that” What do you mean?? Unbelievable. Slop slop slop. AI slop.

As the title says.

We NEED a Sword plush. Please!!
