Toby Fox discusses DELTARUNE Merchandise, highlighting a lack of Lightner merch: fwugradiation.tumblr.com/post/682656560684711936/deltarune-merch >Recently, Fangamer brought something to my attention: It seems there’s some disappointment that certain characters of DELTARUNE, particularly those from the Light World, aren’t getting very much merchandise. >This is an intentional decision. >I wish I could explain more now, but when I consider everything, I don’t think certain official merch (plushes, etc) of certain characters feels right for this game. Since Chapter 1, I told Fangamer that some characters would be more or less off limits after a certain point, and this feeling has only gotten stronger over time. These characters include Kris, Susie, and Noelle. >Other times, particularly with Dark World characters like Spamton, I consider the game setting and think “the game is improved by selling this.” >I understand if some feel disappointed or confused by this decision. I want to make it clear I really respect the passion of the fans, who love the characters like I do. I feel very blessed that the player of the game thinks things like “Kris! I wish I had a plush of Kris so I could open it up and see what’s inside!” >I WANT everyone to be able to have the merch they want, to play with the characters the way they want. So you can still feel free to create goods, commission handmade plushes, etc. following the fan merchandise guideline I created for UNDERTALE. I’m happy if fans go ahead and create what they want to have for themselves.
Interesting distinction for someone to make, I wonder what he has planned

Imagine having your cock so firmly planted in the depths of your own throat that you genuinely believe that a plush toy would negatively impact the reception of your story about purple lesbian dinosaurs and magical worlds
Well, considering politeness and this level of decency is a rarity nowadays, especially online, no wonder Toby always talks like foreign translated to English

rent free

>could have made millions selling asriel merch >refuses to because of it might spoil a game thats been out for almost a decade
I would murder many at least 7 innocent children to have an Asriel plush
Kayden Gomez
I foresee 3 possibilities
1.Toby is intentionally trying to hold back so that Deltarune doesn't just explode like Undertale did. This might be why Chapter 1 and 2 released they way they did. I imagine if Toby had just waited and dumped the whole game all at once we'd see a second wave of Deltarune fanworks that would flood the internet similar to Undertale did.
2.Story Reasons like with Asriel and Chara in Undertale
3.Toby saw how shameless Scott Cawthon was with Five Night's at Freddy's Merch and is intentionally not allowing some merch to be made because it might come off as too Greedy/Corporate. Especially when all he has is 2 out of 7-8 Chapters of the game released.
Could be a mix of 2 and 3, since in regards to the FNAF example, Funko leaked the designs and names of Security Breach characters long before that game came out.
Jose Evans
Past a certain point in the game the light world is just going to stop existing at all and all the old areas will combine to one world map, permanently missable enemies to recruit are a ruse.
Colton Phillips
It makes me think that there's a lot more to the characters, like Noelle has a good chance at being the angel, her becoming an antagonist would sour some peoples purchase of her doll if he made one Or it could be like the Toriel plush and inside each of them would be a soul, probably colored based on the humans from Undertale which would be a spoiler if it did happen
William Allen
Shit, meant for

>ralsei dolls are ok >noelle and susie are not what did he mean by this
baste toby "don't call me radiation" fox, understanding the needs of the people. marketable furry twinks and tumblr sexymen.
Juan Moore
He is essentially gimping himself on an explosion of merchandise sales so I guess he do whatever he wants/
Jonathan Brooks
pretty sure it's 2 because it's specifically only prohibiting merch of lightners. and considering the lightners are the "real" world and the darkners are "toys" it makes sense to only make toys of the toy characters. if it was 1 or 3 we wouldn't have all the ralsei merch since that shit prints money
In Scott's defense, the man was working as a fucking cashier until FNAF and considered suicide after Sterling's review of that Beaver game. I think it's warranted for him to sell out.
Blake Hall
I'm debating whether I should get Spmaton plusg or not I still have time to sign, though I don't know how much it will cost
all their talking plushes cost $32 (strong bad is articulated and has more materials so he's $36) so I'm willing to bet spamton will be the same
Asher Young
why is OFF a tranny game? this seems random
Colton Torres
Kris, Susie, Noelle and Birdly may undergo changes throughout the game you know. and with snowgrave being a thing, I doubt Toby wants people to have a Noelle plush.
The mere existence of Asriel and Chara is a major spoiler for Undertale, which is why they have little-to-no merch.
Christopher Bell
Yeah so what? They exist as characters now people have grown to enjoy. Toby is counting too much on dumb autism people will seethe and destroy their shit because character X turned evil or changed or whatever. This is silly.
Adam Young
They may reveal something spoilery or there is a planned story that may not be plush appropriate. It's a smart move if it's the latter, the fans are fucking crazy. It doesn't sound like much but I know it's gone wrong for games in the past. Think of moefags and the reveal that some blob had a boyfriend in middle school.
Nolan Murphy
Toby is a silly developer making a silly game. If anything, I'd imagine it's due to spoilers. Kris's eye-color, Susie's tail, Noelle's wrist-watch and Birdly's not being dead may give people a set-in-stone canon in the form of a physical object they can reference. It kind of ruins the fun of the video game in that way, and he's silly enough to protect that aspect of his stupid dumb game.
>buy an adorable Kris plush >all of deltarune comes out >cant look at it without thinking about that seen where kris fucks ralsei's ass until he cant walk Why didn't I listen to Toby?
The quality seems kind of low for the price. I general, the Fangamer plushes are disappointing. How did they fuck up Madotsuki so badly?
Dylan Thompson
Fangamer is a small company, please understand

Damn it last thread got archived and I was in the middle of typing something. Spamton worked with Mike at one point. Either a co-worker or cameraman or something. But Mike betrayed spamton right as something good was about to happen. (probably kicked him off and took all of some big reward for himself) He used to be a friend. This was all before he found that mystery man and became successful. Despite being stabbed in the back he tried to get into contact with Mike and failed. >Please Mike answer the phone I can't explain it to your alone
based. literally only trooners and faggot zoom zooms play this trash.
Adam Edwards
what games do you play?
Isaiah Garcia
Their association probably had something to do with BIG SHOT AUTOS. Maybe spamton had commercials planned out for the thing and Mike screwed him over by giving the adspace to someone else.
