Let us discuss Lego Star Wars sets that are relatively to scale with minifigures. It will never be exact so fuck off with your Legos aren't to scale bullshit. I just want to discuss the idea of sets sitting next to each other and making since spatially.
So far, it looks as though the only UCS sets that are about scale is the Millennium Falcon and Slave 1.
So, as for the regular system sets, which are in an acceptable range of minifig scale?
I'd say these are to scale even if they're a little too big or a little too small. That's as close as we'll get.
Rey's Speeder
X-wing sets
A-wing
B-wing
V-wing
All the TIE variants
All the small speeders/bikes
So then there are numerous versions of a lot of these vehicles that are different scales. The 75050 B-wing seems to be the most to-scale while the older sets and the UCS are either too small or much too large.
Yeah man we probably do need another Lego thread.

That thread at the bottom of page 10 was going places!
Have any of the playsets ever been to scale or is that a MOC only thing?

whats the best spiderman toy?
Amazing Yamaguchi Revoltech
I have the figma, probably my favorite Spidey figure, but it's certainly not the best.
For price, accessories, and articulation, ML Ult is the best.
In terms of articulation only, that'll probably be the upcoming Revoltech

BBTS has this for $129.99. Anywhere else I can get him for cheaper? In before "take your ass to ebay"
>buying Play Arts
>muh "not going to ebay" meme
You kinda just set yourself up for SOL man. You won't find it anywhere for cheaper unless you can maybe snag a used one on mandy.
You're literal best option is to get a bootleg (i.e. factory defect and no difference in quality) on ebay for like, half that price.

...what?
So the Fwoosh guys got an email from the company putting the figures together and it basically says "Hey we finished everything and then noticed our employees built them all incorrectly, whoops, we now have to fix the problem with short staff due to the holiday"
They will now ship in April instead of late February/Early march.
Thoughts?
Hahahahahahahahaha what
Don't shitpost OP.
The pins were assembled incorrectly
I'd rather wait a bit longer than teceive 16 figures that are all fucked
Not really surprised. They don't really give us any really updates with the entire 67 or so updates they had. So I expected delays regardless.
I'm thinking of pre-ordering pic related. Does Max Factory make good stuff? I almost bought the Good Smile PVC one a while back, which looks better, but you can't pose. Any input would be appreciated since I've never owned anything from MF before. Thanks!
>>6132513
Max Factory is one of the premier Japanese brands. They generally make excellent products, though pricey.
>>6132513
>pre-ordering
It's out already.
Reviews say it's good. Yes, Max Factory (and the Figma line in general) are generally good shit. Go buy it if you like the look of it.
>>6132525
I really like the look of it. They seem to have done a great job at making her posable, but still sleek.
Amazon says release on March 29 for $74. Where is it out already? I've only ever bought one Japanese figure before, so maybe Amazon isn't the place to get it from?

I really want a new Big Daddy Figure. He turns into a god damn pimp car (1957 Chevy Bel Air).
Idc if it's turd party, I want one, and the bigger the better.
>>6132416
What about the 2007 movie repaint? He's the one of that line I wanted most, but wound up with that Jolt who actually grew on me as a generic background con.
Why are Berserk figures and other merchandise related to the property so expensive?
because they know you'll pay
Low supply and high demand. Re-release of Berserk armor guts figma when?
>>6132123
>Re-release of Berserk armor guts figma when?
Unless I'm mistaken or they've changed the way they do things, I don't think exclusive Figmas ever get reissued. Plus that wasn't just a normal exclusive, that was a special pack-in deal with a current volume of the manga. I'd say chances of a reissue are almost nil.

The S shape is always good advice though. The basic idea is that straight lines tend to look stiff.

Repeating this comment because last thread is kill.
Where could I get the best figma bootlegs from?
>implying not all bootlegs are shit
Yeah bootlegs are bootlegs, but getting replacement joints isn't too difficult, and modding is a future possibility.
Is there a specific site or ebay seller that has the "best bootlegs?"
I just don't want a toxic piece of plastic coming in the mail, or a completely different figure showing up.
Anyone have SHF Stone Cold? I was looking forward to him but I'm having second thoughts now.
What?
He said he's having second thoughts
What
I'll probably never be as happy again as I was as a kid in middle school walking around with my little brother finding cool stuff at KB toys.
>>6131352
When malls were cool.
Instead of Westworld, they should just recreate a peak era KB for me to run around in. I miss it.
>tfw you never bought any of those 10" Toy Biz X-Men figures when they were 3 for $10
I've seen these on other boards.
a little hesitant to buy a figure or toy?
afraid it won't look good on a shelf or not posable enough for you?
Ask others if it's worth it. Share experiences!
>>6131266
I think if someone has that kind of question they can make a thread for it and there doesn't need to be another fucking general up 24/7 just in case someone might.
More like CAN i buy that???
Is that a zoid?
>>6131266
Is that a custom or off the shelf?
Storm Collectibles wins!
>still a fucking sausage party
That's it, canceling my PO's and abandoning the line. Shit scale and they won't do any females despite me wanting females in the SFV style.
>>6130654
Maybe it would help if you weren't some Miku-obsessed waifu fag that can't appreciate a figure unless you can have a bizarre romantic relationship with it.
Okay /toy/ what say you?? Should I open Donnie, or leave him boxed?
>>6130346
I already have the Revoltech Donnatello opened, so I may keep this one in the box..
>>6130346
Keep him boxed. Toys are an extremely great investment, and if you wait long enough , you'll make hundreds per toy.
Personally I've kept all my incredible 1990's era spawn toys in their packages even though I wanted to put them out on display. I'm taking them to the local comic dealer in finally so I can buy my mom a house to show her I didnt waste my life.
>>6130346
Me? I'd open it and it to my cartoon animal superhero collection! WOWOWOW!
