None of the above and I also would not support that shop. I have a hard line rule on not buying anything from any shop that includes more than 3-4 flags and doesn't include the gay male flag (the blue and green one)
Hey man, as someone who flies the MLM flag maybe wording things a bit nicer? The flag is only recently gaining more popularity and not everyone might have seen it or known about it. I would say suggesting the flag rather than berating the seller would be the kinder way to go about things.
That being said, these are adorable and I would buy the trans one in a heart beat as well as the rainbow and the ace for my partner. If you eventually made the MLM one is snatch that up too!

: it really comes down to amount of specificity. This list contains some pretty specific ones but when there's four flags it's always going to be like. rainbow/bi/trans/ace or soemthing like
Ngl I would love to see a purely aromantic flag represented. As an aro myself, we tend to always be lumped into the aroace spectrum and that’s not always the case. Purely aro flags are extremely rare to see and it’d make me really happy to have some representation.
in my personal experience, my aspec and bi plushies consistently sells out fastest. lesbian, trans, and nonbinary are also strong sellers. polysexual is the one on your list where I haven't had a sale in quite some time now.
but again, as stated above, these are much more recent popular additions to the family, and they've got a much wider reach in the younger communities than our age's
Regarding the MLM flag, I didn't include this one in my list for a few reasons, but the main one is that it uses 4 colors that aren't present on any of the other flags
If I manage to successfully develop these kits and there's a consistent enough demand for them, I'd absolutely expand the range of flags, but as it is, I'm already looking at a wool order of over $100 if I offer all these flags in the initial/test run of this product
To me that is an INCREDIBLY valid reason. I will say it might be nice to have even a simplified version? I know I can't speak for a lot of people but even I would appreciate that. Granted it not sharing as many colors with other flags is also a good reason.
Smaller businesses I know can have a hard time with having the materials for something that might not sell as much and can't be used in other projects as easily.
so I realize that they're different hues of green, but would it look too odd to do the aro and MLM flags in the same greens? I know when I did the aro pattern for someone a while back, it was a very "work with what ya got" situation, so I went with more blue-hued greens like in the MLM flag there....
I'm eyeing the green in the top two hearts in the OP image, and tbh, I think that darker one would look cool enough in an Aro one. (hi, aro ace here, lol)
