MOAs, also known as avid fans of TXT, shared their dissatisfaction with the U.S. stop of TXT’s 2024 TOMORROW X TOGETHER WORLD TOUR, specifically in regards to the merchandise.

One MOA stated, “I was so excited to get the T-shirt I saw online, but what I received is completely different. It feels like a scam.”This sentiment was echoed by many others who had eagerly anticipated purchasing tour memorabilia.

The discontentment does not only arise from inconsistencies in design, but also from worries regarding the balance between quality and price. Despite the merchandise being priced at a steep $49 USD, customers discovered that the material used was below par, prompting doubts about its worth.

Despite fans anticipating the “U.S. version”of the merchandise, they were taken aback when they saw the TXT members donning the original Korean designs during encores. This sparked a longing among fans for the promised versions. Additionally, the presence of images featuring the original designs on merchandise flyers and banners at tour locations further amplified the feeling of being misled by false advertising.
BH are also scamming moas out of money with false advertisement for the tour merch – there’s been multiple tiktoks about the tour tshirt being sold and then when moas open it up it’s completely different to one in the photo and the ones txt are wearing pic.twitter.com/sWlPRzvokP

One fan shared, “We were told the tour dates would be printed on the back, but it’s just a plain shirt. It’s disappointing when you expect something special and get something generic.”
The design of TXT’s upcoming album, “The Name Chapter: FREEFALL”, has caused quite a stir among fans and netizens. The use of unconventional cardboard packaging, which strays from the usual formats, has sparked a heated debate within the fandom.
Although some praise its environmentally-friendly concept, there are also those who criticize it for sacrificing style and functionality, particularly for potential resale value. Online users express dissatisfaction and label the design as unoriginal and unattractive, in contrast to MOAs who view it as a suitable representation of TXT’s environmental themes. As the release date for the album approaches, debates about its design continue to spark passionate opinions and discussions on the internet.
