It is not without reasons that the Toyland is by far the least popular part of the game. So who's being a troll here?

Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you should bash it. Even if there are good reasons that Toyland is the least-popular climate, that doesn't mean that complaining about it is going to get it changed.

Still, I think it would be worth to think a bit more about whether this choice will serve the game well on the mid- to long-term perspective in terms of attracting new players.
Personally, I will just
exchange the title game with another one I like better, as described
here
But the title screen is also the place where new users interact with the game for the first time and if that first impression is "Hey, what kind of silly nonsense kid's game is this!?!" than they will probably just walk away and never touch it again.
And I don't think that is what the community should aim for ...
