Hopefully there's a sane way to recover/recycle the plastic used in these kinds of larger prints, especially if it starts to see widespread commercial application— thinking character statues in cinema lobbies to replace cardboard cutouts. I suppose it's nothing compared to all the plastic popcorn buckets and drink lids, but it still feels like it would be significant if they were printing a new display for each new major release.
- Stinkosaurus 6y agoReally? People are trying to raise awareness of underrepresented people and your concern is about the plastic they used for a few statues? So we should use cardboard for statues of black people while all the white dudes get stone and metal?
- mikepurvis 6y agoI think it's great; I said that elsewhere in the thread. I'm just acknowledging that should this become a more widespread trend, it would be nice to figure out a full lifecycle for these prints upfront rather than after thousands of them have been sent to landfill.
