They sure put effort in making a toy of such shitty design.
By that I mean a lot of gimmicks.
For those unfamiliar, "Plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model." If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here.

Secret Santa
It's that time of year again. Just look at the form and fill it out. Signups last until December 1st, pairs go out in the days after that.

A few things:
-Use an active email, I don't want to be hounding you and then have to repair someone.
-Use your full address, I don't know every damn city and zip code in the US.
A new option, Cards Only. If you pick this you're assumed to be willing to ship international (it's a card after all). It doesn't have to be a handmade card, just something nice. Of course handmade is nicest, but not everyone has the skills for it.

First for big fucking sword
0/10 would not build again.
So I have been debating on just getting the reissued Legacy series (2015) of the instead of waiting for the Bandai Tamashii Nations Soul of Chogokin Mighty Morphing Power Rangers Action Figure that is supposed to come out in July of next year. Do you think it would be worth the wait and the extra money?
I could get the Megazord and the Dragonzord for about 400 total but the GX-72 is 299 but it's beautiful.
Also, if I do go with the Legacy line, should I go for the 2013 20th anniversary or just go for the re releases? The goal is to get an Ultrazord if I didn't wait for the GX-72
>>6026454
Bumpin with Titanus...Is this worth 500 dollars?
Get the Chogokin

This is the Legacy version I'm talking about
Old thread >>6014651
What the fuck is that.
>>6025769
Eh, I don't really like the look of the official Devastators. Too many hollow parts, weird combined proportions, and the UW version is more expensive to get here in the UK than second-hand Hercules. I can see the appeal (very G1 accurate, surprisingly poseable combined mode etc) but...nah, he's not for me.
Fuck that is the first 3rd party combiner I'd really want.
Can't believe that /toy/ doesn't talk about Motuc.
I know that these figures can be considered as statueshit, because of their lacks of posability, but come on !
Finally, we can buy a Teela or a Ram-Man at decent prices, and I assure you that this is our last chance.
Hop in, motherfuckers !

I have a pretty good collection, but I will definitely snatch some of these up.
>>6025354
Meh, I might get Teela for the blond head but I'd much rather a good Filmation or 200X version. Too bad they just crashed the market for the original (I ended up with 2 due to a rushed checkout back in the day).

Is it alright mention that I have a few old shinkis listed in the bst thread?
Anyone know of any 3 3/4 inch figures with similar articulation to this? I just need a decent body with good articulation in this scale. I'm one of the few people that seems to hate ball joints, so the main criteria include hinge joints for the shoulders and hips, but still has thigh and bicep swivels. Thanks.
>>6020480
Do you have a price range in mind
>>6020490
I'm open to whatever really, but with the smaller scale I'd rather not be paying a crap ton of money.
>>6020480
Google is your friend.

Well, this is it. I'm set up for a half a year worth of supplies and I shouldn't buy more stuff anyway for my own good.

Well, shipping from spain is kinda expensive (at least for me) so it makes sense to buy more stuff at once.

Unfortunately the only Mk-II I have is the Ka Signature, which doesn't serve as much of a comparison since articulation-wise it's the exact same as the Barzam, haha.

Ho ho ho! Hello, boys and girls of /toy/!
Halloween has come to a close so its time to start our annual Secret Santa gift exchange!
As many of you might remember, last year’s SS was far from perfect. I’m a new Santa and I’m committed to fixing the mistakes that were made last time. I’m going to do my best and hopefully we can make this the best Secret Santa yet!
To sign up please email [email protected] with the following:
>Your name:
>Your shipping address:
>Are you willing to ship internationally?
This is an option for U.S.A anons only. However, I will try my best to match international anons with someone else in their country.
>Your wish list:
Make a list of toys! I recommend putting 3-6 things so your Santa has a variety to choose from. This year’s minimum is $20. There is no maximum.
>Message to your SS:
This part is optional. If you have anything else you want to tell your Santa put it here!
Registration will end November 18th at midnight EST. The assignments will be sent out before Thanksgiving.
>>5999399
Can't we put a maximum? I don't want a request saying some hot toys $500 shit
>>5999444
Double trips comands you.
ITT old/cheap/lower-quality action figures that you love
I own the Neca, Revoltech and Figuarts TMNT figures, but there's just something so utterly charming about the original Playmates line, particularly the turtles themselves. I think they might still be my favorite TMNT figures.
Those old ones are nice, but the belts always tore. I can't wait until Amazon ships my Figuarts Don.
>>5995751
Definitely agreed. My dream line is a bunch of turtles figures that somehow encapsulate the said charm of the old playmates figures, kind of like those MOTU figures.
>>5995751
I was going to make a TMNT general thread earlier but then I realized how quickly people would bitch about the quality and autistic I am for collecting the TMNT 2012 line and the re-release of the original line.
What are your thoughts about collecting variants of the same turtle? I mainly have different variations of Donatello since he's my favorite.

I recently ordered a bootleg off ebay. It was a great bootleg just kinda mad I was ripped off. Anyone else got stories about eBay?
>>6031687
Nope, never heard of em.
>>6031687
You do realize you can get your money back for that, right? File a fucking dispute, you pushover. People like you are the reason bootleg sellers exist in the first place.
>>6031687
You didnt get ripped off , you got what you paid for . Perhaps you should spend more time to check what you are actually buying next time .
