What the hell is this POKEJUICE!

[yappycat]

@pfvapes - your branding caught my eye precisely because it does look adult and sophisticated. I think you've pitched the way your product looks just perfectly and even though I've not yet actually tried any of your juices (just waiting for that Karma Frappe 3mg/10ml to be ready ) I have certain expectations of quality when I do just from how your stuff looks. It's not cartoony, or 'laddish' there's no insanely screamingly ott colour scheme, it's not made to look 'cutesy'.
I don't agree when detractors of vaping say things like 'adults trying to quit ciggies don't want flavours like blueberry cheesecake, peanut butter and jelly, candyfloss - that's just to get kids hooked on nicotine blah blah etc' that's BS coz plenty of us do want those delightfully sweet and tasty flavours, why should quitting smoking involve vaping something that tastes like a burned toilet roll...we just don't need the packaging to look like it fell off a shelf in Toys R' Us

If this is doing the rounds on social media, it won't be long until we do see this in a newspaper, which is what we really don't need with the TPD-many people will be up in arms about this once it does reach national media.

I hope the manufacturers see sense, and rebrand the juice and change the packaging before they are forced to do so, and also portray vaping in a bad light yet again.

It's not the only one, saw some the other day that looked like those caprisun foil cartons and I've just seen this

which looks like a box of sweets my little lad occasionally has

Can't believe the length's people will go too to make money! Give it a month and the sun will have a story of a 14 year old boy who took up vaping just because it had a pikatue on it not that I know how to spell such a fucking daft word! This shit should be banned some how and not that I'll buy it to try but I'll bet my best mod that with having to do this to packaging to sell there shit it can't be any good as the best juice could sell it's self in a plain bottle! Shit like this makes me mad [emoji35]

That's shocking, it says not for sale to minors as well it should but the font they've used to state that the contents of the packaging is actually e-juice and not some sort of sweetie is the smallest font on there and not noticeable at all. When people say that ejuice packaging is designed to appeal to kids and point to stuff like that to make their point then there's nowt you can really say in defence is there? /facepalm and /headesk just don't cover it, it's almost as if the manufacturers of ejuice who choose to market their products in this way are inviting industry restrictions in with open arms, their stupidity and shortsightedness astounds me

This is just moronic, I grew up with pokemon, I now vape would I combine the two?
No.
I'd look like a damn childish idiot, something like whoever thought this was a good idea.
I already hate tpd with its ejuice limits and, guess what, it also prohibits sale of tobacco UNDER a certain amount unlike vape liquid that gets a max allowed amount.
This is the kind of ammo the daily fail jumps on.

These are deliberate tactics by those wishing to endorse their arguments about promoting sales to children,that is all.

Its not - the pokemon juice is made by a legitimate juice company (Russian I believe) - with a marketing department that is either a: very good at making very bad decisions, b: not averse to doing whatever to see their juice sell and absolutely couldn't give a fuck or c: all of the above.

my grabs my gonads about this mostly is the shops that are stocking it and think it looks great on the counter.
