Interesting question when thinking about it. I really don’t think I’m particularly fussed, I think sometimes prefer texture of some kind rather than plain smooth - so I guess that goes towards realistic more. However, as someone else mentioned, ‘realistic colors’ are very meh if I give it too much head space - and purple is sooo over-used. Would love to see more orange, yellow, red.
Toys are exactly that, toys, fun to play with. So yeah, never bought anything with the thought of ‘this needs to be as realistic as possible’ in mind.
