So when do you think they'll finally release a figure, and will it be good enough to satisfy standards?
>>6010992
someday, no
Bison looks like a real good poseable statue. They're using hard plastic on the figure which is a hard no no.

I stopped planning on getting Ryu when figuarts announced their own line.
You know the drill, new thread new stuff.
Can't wait for Twinferno/Doublecross/whatever the fuck Hasbro's calling him now.
Found some old TFs from my younger years
Here's the Target Exclusive Construction team from 04 (I think)
>>6010780
Well, you could get one from hqyc7637 on ebay, then pray for it to arrive
They have held up well. I thought them to look much worse from all the play they suffered.
you know you want to

>>6009967
make me
>>6009967
If you like Star Trek, Dredd, or DKR Batman: Yeah, 100%.
If you like Marvel characters or other DC characters aside from DKR Batman: Fuck no.
>>6009967
this retard >>6010098 doesnt have the recently released cap or Shadowland DD so he cant say shit.
These figures are outstanding in hand trust me, dont trust the pics, every reviewer online will also tell you so. I'm still waiting for Mezco to send me my Shadowland DD which is also getting great reviews online.
Also TDK Batman is goat
Welcome to the LEGO General. Everything is awesome. That's still a thing we say right?

I have to admit City is getting somewhat interesting.

Uh, is this the correct board for RC cars..?
I think some guys tried starting a general RC thread a few times but they just went to page 10 without much interest
>>6008830
probably.
never seen one but it seems like this would be the board for it
I'm not sure if it is OP, but I'll post. I'm rebuilding a free SCX10 honcho with spare bits. Pretty fun truck, haven't been able to run it too hard because there's no battery tray. Currently fabbing one out of a cutting board.

I want to build a small diorama/piece of sea for my Yamato but I don't have the time, tools or materials (not to mention the skills) to make a nice one like shipwreck-anon. I'm thinking about just using plaster or similar material to model the water and then try to paint it to make it look like the sea. Anyone know if it's feasible and have some good tips or things to keep in mind?
>>5972959
Vallejeo has some kind of liquid thats look like water once dried.
Sorry for the multitude of questions. Can a 1/700 ship look ok without PE?

What are some Transformers you want to get modern figures but probably never will, /tfg/?

You could repaint Rewind.
Of all the TM I've gotten so far, Nightbeat's the only one that has a shade of blue that works well with the Blur mold. Why was it so difficult to do this with some of the other TM and bodies?

Japan store exclusive, available by Japan post only to verified Japanese addresses only, completely unavailable online, head, arms, thighs, and feet are all painted in the current factories.
And it's $110.
Anyone have these?
Are they good toys? The mecha designs are interesting.
How are these diffrent from gunpla?
I had the two gold ones, which I believe were Gaia and Saturn. For the 300 yen i paid for each after a sale, they were worth it.
They're made of a very, very soft plastic, seeing as how they have to be to facilitate the gimmick. You buy them as a Frame, then you snip all the individual pieces apart. Then, since all the pieces have pegs and holes all over them, you can plug them back together their frame mode, which looks, unsurprisingly, like a model kit frame.
Aside from molded-in detail, a lot of which is missing due to hollow parts, the coloured details comes 100% from stickers, some of which have to go over some awkward surfaces. The biggest offender of that are the round, Planet parts in the chest of the guys. Those stickers are a bitch.
All of the joints are plastic on plastic, instead of any polycaps being involved. For a super-cheap line, they're alright. I don't have the two I had anymore, but that's mostly because I didn't find myself doing much with them, not because I thought they weren't worth it or anything.
Don't go in expecting too much and you should be fine.
>>6007791
Thanks! Got a couple from a sale.
I'm surprised by how small they are.
Not a fan of the stickers.
They really are worth it for the sale price.
They are the perfect gifts for snapfags because you can disassemble and snap them back into a frame. INFINITE SNAPFITTING
For those unfamiliar, "Plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model." If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here.

Old thread: >>6001769
So based on the previous poll, the winner is "Unspecified non-Bandai build."
What that is, however, I'm not too sure. We can do something with Kotobukiya in general, the SRW line, the Frame Arms (or Girl) line, something with tanks, aircraft boats, or even just a literal "Submit something that isn't Bandai" build.
Thoughts?

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.

I think "anything not bandai" is my favorite option because people have such different interests it's likely to get the most submissions, many people may not even be able to get a kit in a reasonable amount of time if they don't have something lying around
Transformers got off easy. This is gonna be one turd of a movie.

Considering half of my actual posts on /toy/ are questions about whether or not somethings worth buying, this is a great idea for a thread. Looking forward to it.
Hi, /toy/
I've taking a liking to the action figures in the figma Table Museum line, I'll admit it.
Can you recommend any other museumesque toys so I can flesh out the collection?
Maybe even a uh museum diorama for them to live in. Wouldn't that be cool?!
Also it's a little silly how on myfigurecollection all the images of David and Vitruvian Man are classed as "NSFW" don't you think?
Thanks!

None that I know of. I love this line though> I want to get a David. I need a legit Thinker too. Got one that was bootleg but his joints disintegrated as soon as I touched him =l
Revoltech takeya is a series of buddhist statues, l think it can give you a museum/art feeling
