HASBRO's New TROLL-IFICATION Policy!
« on: April 28, 2012, 08:38:04 AM »
Is it just me or has HASBRO either recieved an extra cheap shipment of Troll Hair fur fabric , or are they trying to brainwash the planet into loving rainbow coloured faux fur in time for the launch of the up and coming Troll movie and I guess their impending product launch?


So far HASBRO had managed to Trollify; Littlest Pestshop pets with their new fuzzy dos, My Little Pony's Shinning Armor with his unruly marital frizz, Fur-real pets are covered in the stuff, and now Dizzy Dancers have it sprouting from their twirling bonces!

That is all amounting to one very bad hair day/year in my book! Enough with the static, acrylic styling HASBRO, wash those tangles out of your hair and bring back glossy flowing cascades of smooth, smooth shimmering nylon:)

Amen!!  I despise troll hair (well Trolls in general for the matter!).  "Come on man", Hasbro...I'd really like to see Shining Armour with some decent hair.  Once I get my hands on one, I might rehair him!

Good thing my ponies all end up dehaired anyway. Since the regular hair on G4s already tends to end up messed up.
I'm seriously considering switching to resin manes for them. Atleast all the major characters seem to be provided for by the community.

I know I don't like troll hair either.   I offered to buy a Troll at thrift and try conditioning it, ... but all of a sudden there are NONE to be found. :( sorry team,  but I'll keep looking

I'm not too fond of it either. Admittedly, I don't mind it on Shining Armor, but I'd prefer a proper mane overall.

*looks up at my Treasure Troll* I had no idea there was going to be a Troll movie. I like Trolls but I have a feeling it's gonna be cheesy. I don't care for the troll style hair on Shining Armour either.

Hasbro, quit trollin' us!

I think Hasbro was trying to avoid making Shining Armor too "girly" with the standard nylon hair. As for the other toy lines... That is pretty curious! Perhaps one of the more influential people in the toy design circle has started to favor this stuff or something.

I was definitely on the "nasty" side when I saw Shining Armour and unfortunately his mane and tail do have that horrible troll hair texture. But....[preparing to duck fakies] I actually think it works for him - just look, dont touch. Maybe its because I have my lovely handsome G1 boys with their long flowing locks so I have my "Fabio" quotient filled but I dont mind this on SA and I "think" I might be able to live with it if thats their plan for other boys...

Blah, I can't stand troll hair  :mad:
I feel like it's a cheaper way for them to hair ponies instead of doing it the right way by threading locks. I get that they are trying to make the male ponies look different from the girls or something but realistically, male and female ponies both have long, flowy manes  :lol:  plus, the male ponies have a totally different build than the females. I wish that they would just toss the troll hair idea. I mean look at Shining Armour in the Royal Wedding episode... he's a handsome guy, hair and all but his toy looks pretty freaky  :lol:

I don't care for the troll hair either, especially on the ponies.  It's just too fluffy and flighty.  Hopefully Shining Armor is just a one-off and they'll return to the normal hair.

I don't like the Troll hair, to me it looks like they are slowly balding.  I will probably leave Shining Armour's hair alone when I get him, but I am sincerely hoping his Troll hair is a one time thing in the MLP line.

You're not alone on this, I don't like it much, but I can see it working on male ponies
But I still think I'll be rehairing my Shining Armour when I get him =p
