  I understand the sentiment, but I think paying attention to this stuff is important. Like it or not, they are a huge part of the zeitgeist and they can set trends. This is one I’d like to not see. It’s important this shit is reported on and pushed back against, hard.

    Pushed back? By whom? This merch set will sell out and other IP owners are envious their franchises don’t have the same ridiculous traction.

      I haven’t seen a single positive comment about this so far even in spaces dedicated for fans of GTA, but I also fully recognize that does not necessarily reflect the majority of consumers.

  That’s how shitty it must be. They’re just cashing in on the hype before everybody knows
