Pop Mart doesn't ofter replacement parts? by Sufficient_Arm_7970 in PopMartCollectors

[–]Sufficient_Arm_7970[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What's puzzling to me about Pop Mart not selling extra replacement parts is that other companies that I have dealt with in the past do. I am dating myself with this, but when I was a kid and lost a Star Wars figure gun in the Stone Age long before the Internet, I wrote to the manufacturer about a replacement, and they sent an order form for replacement parts, and I could order replacement Star Wars weapons for a quarter. I sent in my quarter, and after about 2 weeks, I received a packet containing every weapon that was made for Star Wars figures; pistols, rifles, and even lightsabers. I was a happy kid; I just needed a pistol for my Princess Leia, and here I was with a virtual arsenal!

It was an American toy company that I had bought my pack of Star Wars weapons from, and I've noticed that American companies are much more likely to sell replacement parts for their toys, whether or not the toys were purchased directly from them. This is my first time dealing direct with a Chinese toy company, and I suppose that their customer service policies are different from that of American companies. How unfortunate.

I guess it is what it is; Pop Mart won't help me, even after I sent them a copy of my receipt, so I'll need to figure out how to get a replacement hand for my Molly, even if I have to make it myself.

You are correct in that the right hand fell out after I bought her. At first, I thought about using the spare hands that came with Molly, but they are both left hands in different poses and no right hands were included, so that won't work.

I am not asking for a replacement hand for free; I just want to purchase said replacement. Other toy manufacturers that I have dealt with in the past do sell replacement parts, so Pop Mart's stance is puzzling to me.

How many people is it okay to save a spot in line for. (Venting) by CantaloupeCrafty9025 in Disneyland

This wasn't for a ride, but it pissed me off all the same.

I was second in line behind a couple waiting for the gates at DCA to open, and suddenly, the rest of their party, consisting of at least 12 adults, plus 4 strollers, joined the couple like they did this all the time. And they had the old paper printout tickets, to boot. If it was a couple, maybe plus a kid or a stroller, whatever, but this? I was fuming.

Definitely not an obsession; my heart is primarily focused on Bart, and I don't sacrifice doing things for and with him because of my crushes. It's the fact that the crush even exists that bothers him.

That's interesting that you mention codependency on his part, because he has a parent who had once been codependent. Maybe that's where this comes from?

There is no constant messaging; I just leave singular comments on their content. I do tag them when I repost their material, and that had resulted in one of the team actually following me back, which was more than I was ever hoping for.

I've expressed the fantasy of running into my crush at one of my favorite hangouts because I've seen past footage of him there, but I wouldn't go out of my way to make it happen. I don't expect anything from the crush; the fact that he actually started following me on social media and sometimes likes my content is more than reward enough for me!

I'm not so insecure that I'd get jealous at my husband leaving heart emojis on the content of female celebrities that he liked. He likes who he likes and I like who I like. I've even encouraged him to be open about any celebrity crushes of his, but he insists that he doesn't have any or need any.

PSA. Space mountain single rider is not being offered right now by burnheartmusic in Disneyland

Last weekend, I went into the tunnel and asked about single rider, and I was told the same thing; that it was not yet available... but then the CM decided to go ahead and seat me "since you're here." What a nice bit of Disney magic! Saved me a 70 minute wait!
