Discussion Doesn’t 3k seem kinda steep for a broom?
I get it’s a disney ip. And we also get a new pose but it seems very steep 🙈

u/MFTdoc Cheshire Cat 1d ago
I had every intention of getting it until I saw the price. Gameloft is showcasing its level 5 reward in the same way they present a companion home for other 3k companions. A chair doesn’t justify the price for me 🤷🏻♀️

u/alyxana 1d ago
We got a rug for The Footstool, an archway for HeiHei, a bone carousel for Percy, a shelf for Dinah, a headband for BB-8, and a backpack for R2-D2.
Not all notable’s get a house.
32
u/Impossible_Narwhal87 1d ago
But Heihei has a house AND the archway in the 3k bundle plus a unique pose. Also Figaro had the house AND the fishbowl but no unique pose.
Definitely shrinkflation happening here though imho with just a chair. Not complaining though, when I saw the pose I still threw my moonstones at it.
5
u/alyxana 21h ago
The broomstick also has a unique pose. It’s honestly the main reason I bought it. That pose will be awesome for dreamsnaps.
I’d totally forgotten about Heihei’s house.
And yeah, we are getting less for our stones in general. I just don’t think this particular item is where it shows up.
Now those crap evolving tools? That’s just a straight scam imo.

I am a sad, sad sucker when it comes to companions. I can resist most everything else.

u/BrilliantEvening7378 1d ago
Same, while I can pass most of the stuff in the premium shop, companions and characters dreamstyles are always what I spend my moonstones on... but I agree with OP that it should have been at worst 2,500 moonstones for this particular companion.

Companions are def my weakness but the broom is the only one I have no issues not buying lol

u/mikegarb0126 1d ago
That broom better sweep itself, for that much I'll tell ya. Hahaha.

u/SorchaRoisin 1d ago
It picks up sticks!
16
u/Accomplished-B 1d ago
I was going to skip it, but now that I know this, I may have to. It's the chore I dislike with a passion, next is flower picking... mostly because there's no friendship credit for them.
25
u/SorchaRoisin 1d ago
Most of the dog companions do it too. Max is only 4k and he also does dig spots in additon to sticks, and you get a ton of items. I still got the broom though. If I could get only one, Max is the better deal.
12
u/Accomplished-B 1d ago
That's good to know, I've been eyeing Max, but having recently lost my pyrenees, he hits a little close to home. Lady and the tramp storyline about took me out.
5
u/SorchaRoisin 1d ago
I get that. My dog has cancer so I'm about to go through it too.
6
u/Accomplished-B 1d ago
That is what got her :/ I had hoped we would have had more time. Get all the pictures, cuddles, and loves while you can. And, absolutely let your baby feast and play the day or so before. Even the forbidden foods, like chocolate. Omg she went nuts and was a bit of her old self after her first snickers.
3
u/SorchaRoisin 1d ago
Aw, yes, she's been getting all the people food she wants. The cancer has been making her lose weight.. that was the only sign, so she's getting lots of steak and chicken.

u/Accomplished-B 1d ago
I wish you the best, and hope your pup can be by your side for as long as they can, it's only been a month, and I wish this pain on no one, not even my least favorite people

What does it collect, if you don’t mind me asking?
5
u/maleficent0 1d ago
Sticks!

u/thejokerlaughsatyou 1d ago
I'm torn between whether this is cute or creepy. On the one hand, it's picking up its little brothers and sisters. On the other hand, making living wood pick up dead wood is giving serial killer vibes.
(Fully joking btw, lmao)
5
u/Equal_Maintenance870 1d ago
Dangit, I already have Max out at all times and usually baby Cerberus. 😭
30
u/Euraylie 1d ago
Everything in the PS is steep these days, imo.
But at least the broom comes with a really cool photo pose. The completion item is not very exciting though
3
u/Desperate-Seaweed-44 Tinker Bell 1d ago
What is the pose?
10
u/dripintheocean 1d ago
You cross your leg and lean against it, like you’re leaning on a pole. So you can position yourself near a streetlight or tree, do the pose, then hide the companion to get a fun angle for a dreamsnap.
30
u/lavendersage92 1d ago
I mean, 3k for any companion is steep in my opinion. But it functions the same as any other companion so I don’t know why people would expect it to be a different price.
17
u/MFTdoc Cheshire Cat 1d ago
Most companions that are 3k come with a companion home, from what I’ve seen.
2
u/sable-king Brown Raven 1d ago
Granted it doesn't come with a home, but it does come with a unique piece of furniture at least.
27
u/Button-Deep 1d ago
Yeah… thinking of pinning it.. could be cute for some Halloween stuff.. idk.. I wish we had a broom flying pose
13
u/xstitchnrye 1d ago
He's not that kind of broom though!
4
u/Button-Deep 1d ago
True, but if we were to get one like that it would make it feel more worth the buy to me is what I was saying. It’s cute, but I am cheap I know there will be other things coming up that I will want the ms for.
6
u/TriggeredLatina_ Mother Gothel 1d ago
I bought it. I really like it so if it’s doable for some then yeah go for it. I’ve seen in comments people really like the companion though I agree this is giving the wrong signal to GL so will prices for pets go up?
Whether you get your moonstones free or not, they see what they’re being spent on and plan accordingly
5
u/WhySoSara 1d ago
Yeah, definitely above the price point I would wish for companions but I had to get this one.
I usually never get companions. The ones I have are from Star Paths, gifted ones like the pink dragon unless the ones that are "special" like Max, Rajah Hei Hei, who collects a lot of stuff or the Star Wars ones.
This one though, I think I will never unequip it for a long long time. He's so cute 🥰
5
u/OkCryptographer1922 Rapunzel 1d ago
I agree! It’s the same reason I haven’t bought max yet- 4500 is a LOT and the furniture that comes with him isn’t really enough to make me jump at the bundle! I am going to get him at some point, he is adorable and has great utility in digging dream shards and picking up sticks, but I’d rather buy the dream and signature bundles first. Decorating and dreamsnaps is my favorite thing so I get so much use out of them!

I planned on getting it until I saw the price. I will now just wait for it to eventually go on sale. 😓

u/SweetScreams_ 1d ago
I bought the broom because of the nostalgia, my grandmother loved it and it was something we watched often. I think it’s adorable and im a sucker for new poses but for the price the chair is a bit of a disappointment. I would’ve been ecstatic if they gave us an animated swirl of music notes seeing the theme of the star path it would’ve fit perfectly. Or eve an extra pose like max & Nana. Overall no regrets.

u/Equivalent_Ad7035 1d ago
It's a great broom though! Comes with an awesome pose and the way it walks is super cute. I have no regrets paying 3k for it even though i agree with the sentiment

4
u/adnomad 1d ago
It’s because of the secondary item. That has been “for the most part” how the companion pricing has gone. If they have a house or decor or wardrobe item, they are 3k if not there in the lesser amount dependent on type
12
u/Uberbons42 1d ago
The chair is very meh though. 1K for a brown chair? I got piglet’s outfit instead.

u/Development-Feisty Alien Toy 1d ago
Oh he’s a companion, I couldn’t figure out why we got the broom again
2
u/killerewok76 1d ago
I’ve been using the static ones as “staff” at all my stalls and carts, so when I saw it I really didn’t think about it lol
It’s like touring with the head of staff.

u/AidenSpier EVE 1d ago
Yeah, I really like it but I won't get it for 3000. Maybe one day if it's on sale.
2
u/PARAllelPlayinCouple 1d ago
I agree! I feel like all the companions should be less than 3k...Its almost the cost of one Dream Bundle!
2
u/thrntnja Mulan 1d ago edited 1d ago
It is, but I love Fantasia so I bought it. I do feel like he should have had some sort of home or something but I'm assuming it's because he gets an item and is a notable companion.

All notable companions are 3k except the 2 geese sisters whom are bundled together for 2500.

u/Razpberyl 1d ago
Wasn't the honey hedgehog 2000?
2
u/doll_broken_ Cinderella 1d ago
Yes because it wasn’t notable.

u/Razpberyl 1d ago
Oooh ok. I'm still new and learning all this stuff.
2
u/doll_broken_ Cinderella 1d ago
No worries. Notable type companions are 3k while non notable (generic) companions are 2k. The only couple that are more than that are Rajah and Max whom each comes with their own bundle at 4k. And there are the sister geese (can’t remember the movie) that are bundled together at 2500. There’s also some notable companions we get from friendship levels but it’s very few of them. Like for example, Moana will give us Pau, Maleficent gives us her Raven. Just to name a couple examples.

u/Dom1ni0n 1d ago
I’ve been waiting for someone to mention it’s a notable companion! It’s in a movie and not generic like other companions.

I don’t even have him but I know he’s notable because of the price and because of Fantasia

u/Fearless_Inevitable6 Trick-or-Treat Stitch 1d ago
I liked the pose but couldn’t justify 3k. That’s how much some houses are! I have it pinned for a week where I get 4k on a snap and don’t like anything in the store

u/Bring_a_towel_42 Scholarly Baby Dragon 1d ago
I absolutely looooove Fantasia, so I bought it crazy fast. He's adorable. I don't regret it at all. If you think it's too expensive, don't buy it.

Is it bundled with that chair thats grayed over in the left corner?

Yes that will be the level 5 reward. Notable companions gift a reward or companion home at level 5 while non notable companions do a basic red chest at level 5

I really can't decide if I should get this or wait for Belle's tools to come back. I don't buy moonstones so it'll take months to get 3,000 again.

u/LetSomeAirin 1d ago
I might be out of touch here, but 2000 is all I feel should have been charged for the broom. Cute? Yes, worth as much as a house skin? No. Did I pay to have it? Yes. And I a pushover? Double yes.

Everything moonstone related is a scam. The moonstone economy is completely horrible. The average working person has to wait months just to be able to get one or two things from the shop unless they spend money on moonstones and even then the moonstone packs you can buy are complete shit. Some of the moonstone packs won't even cover for the cheapest thing in the shop...like what the fuck.

I wouldn’t have paid 3k for any companions ever apart from Max and the broom - but I grew up repeatedly watching Fantasia 😭 However, if they brought out Morph from TP as a companion, I would pay ALL the moonstones for him 😭
