Yeah, I don't know what they were thinking. Polaroid image area is twice the size of Instax Square. So are the borders! The thing(ie) is totally different

Polaroid really going to piss off their supplier for their 300 film for some extra coin? Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.

Talk about your yellow water spraying event........
I'm a big supporter of IP but square boarders? There must be more to it.
The investment firms that gobble up great old companies (e.g. Polaroid) live for this sort of thing.
We have changed from a country that makes great stuff, to a country of people how make money from almost nothing.
