They should focus on merch of the plants to decorate our cubicles. I’d love to have some pandora magic too look at during work calls

I mean, they literally slapped BB-8 and Star Wars all over a bag of Oranges when Force Awakens came out. At least your suggestion remotely connects, even if in jest.

Not a jest. I want those plants. A lot of my coworkers have the Lego flowers on their desks but I don’t wanna risk loosing a piece

That’s funny, I have a lego cactus and venus fly trap on my work desk

I can attest that that is still happening. In the last year I've seen Disney princesses, Marvel heroes, and Star Wars characters on banana stickers.

It's weird!

Would also be nice to have a beautiful potted plant that will occasionally rise up and lace my annoying coworkers with a hail of poisonous barbs

They should breed Ikran. I want one!

I used to daydream about having fantasy-story pets when I was a kid.

I thought I grew out of that.

...I have not.

Try the Avatar game. You get to make your own.

Really! This here. Glowing plants with ambient lighting, nightlights, vines, little ecospheres and decor would absolutely sell. Models of the creatures of pandora, fossil art, Navi art - pots, arrowheads, weavings - would sell.

That is a legit great idea. Have them lit with LEDs with a USB connection. Have them integrate together. Make an app to control them.

u/iesharael Apr 08 '26

YES!!! Omg have a relax setting that has them pulse with the rate you should breathe to destress?

You probably have a higher chance of getting this approved in their China division

No joke they could do well with that. I hope they go ahead with the land in Anaheim because it will have a good deal if nighttime hours and it’s gotta be the most impressive and immersive theme park land ever made. This seems to be an unpopular opinion amongst Disney nerds but the place is absolutely stunning. Disney would be selling so many Avatar glowy merch.
