Are there any decently articulated figures of cyborg girls? You'd think Japan would be all over this, but all I see are overpriced schoolgirls in mech armor.
Who is this semen demon?
This probably isn't the bets board for this, but I don't know where else to go, so. Anyone have any idea who/what this guy is? Found him in a relatives pile of crap, tried googling but got no info.
The first thing us /toy/soldiers need to identify your figure is some kind of copyright mark. It's usually on the back or bottom of the feet. Also what kind of material is he made of? hard plastic or soft spongy material?
That aside, I'm going to give a wild guess that this is some kind of promotional figure for a long dead tech company during the .com days. Plenty of startup companies wasted their investment money on bizarre promo items, including fully functional action figures.
It kind of looks like the emachines logo

Anyone know the type of material Polly Pocket clothes are made of?
dafuq is this midget-barbie shit? what happened to the Mini-clamshell playsets i used to steal from my sister?

They changed style when Mattel bought the company that made the originals.

Is this dude shilling his own shit or something?
Also, paint looks Marvel Legends-tier. Not really something to boast about.
>a: hey, let's make some premium figures
>b: awesome! great idea!
>a: yeah, I was thinking mother fucking NINJAS
>b: oh dude, I love it
>a: yeah, and we can go totally nuts and charge premium prices, and market it to adult collectors that want ultimate figures. and I know some guys that are professional toy designers, we can hire them!
>b: sweet! fucking awesome! this sounds like a dream come true
>a: yeah! and we'll make the articulation exactly identical to a bunch of shitty $20 figures that have been using the same ancient clunky joint system for basically 15 years without a shred of improvement
>b: yeah, I- wait, what?
>a: I think $45 would work for a glorified Walmart toy, don't you? plus shipping, of course
>the hands
I hope that isn't the fucking final plastic for them, the pictures had pretty real looking skin, the skin on this is shiny silly putty.
This seems like the place to ask, so here goes.
My wife is teddy bear obsessed. She has 7 in particular that she loves, and I want to suprise her with costumes for them like pic related. I'm not totally sure, but to me they look about the same size as Build A Bear and I think the costumes they sell would fit nicely. Just to be 100% sure though...
Can anyone give me Build A Bear sizes? All the website says is 14 inch. How wide at the neck, size head, waist, length of arms and legs, etc?
Any help will be appreciated.
Bump for interest
>>6035938
They're all different sizes, but use a "one size fits all " system. I mean it doesn't really make sense because some animals are quadrupeds and constructed differently, but essentially everything can fit every animal.
Heads up for BABs, it's buy one get one free for Black Friday
Are you ready for Kancolle's best freedom boatgirl?

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

>Third wave of Desktop Army announced

>the Shinki kits are kind of in limbo with no official release dates, but they're still showing off the prototypes
Where to buy second hand Shinkis:
>eBay, Amazon - generally overpriced, but you might get lucky.
>Mandarake, Rakuten - search 武装神姫 and don't trust listing images.
>Yahoo Japan Auctions, Suruga-ya - you'll need a proxy if you’re not in Japan.
>Taobao - some shops ship international now, so you might not need a proxy.
>Amiami, Jungle-scs - occasionally get some preowned.

Reposting info on the C91 Collab book:
Instructions document:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/6ypyrdhq54udq7s/C91nijiurashinki2_e.txt

Make sure you DM or email @donimassa on twitter or [email protected] to let him know you want to participate!
This is an all-ages book, so nothing too lewd.

>>6034723
Will us burgers be able to buy one of these art books?
>>6034773
Yes, Donimassa will let us know once they are printed so you can contact him.
I recently tried purchasing an order that contains some 18+ goods from mandarake, which requires a verified by visa CC. I would get booted back to the CC payment page after the visa.com page showing my bank's logo. I spoke with my bank, visa, the store, verified by visa, and others. The bank told me they didn't know anything about VbV. Visa told me it was with my bank. The store told me it was with my bank, and so did the company that handles VbV. After I found out that my bank hasn't supported VbV since 2013, I have been in the process in moving to another bank. I initially contacted mandarake after receiving the message [WTDA0204]例外(java.lang.IllegalStateException)が発生しましたが、例外メッセージが設定されていません。which hasn't gone away no matter what I put in. I have a temporary debit card at the moment, and am unsure if it supports VbV. I'm still waiting to get the real one in the mail. I'm on the cusp of pulling my hair out and eating it, as I have spent about 4 days on this issue so far. If anyone has any advice, or has dealt with a similar situation before, please help. My order is currently on hold. I tried repeating the payment process 29 times, according to mandarake, before it generated that java error.
>>6034687
>they updated to a new version of java without updating their code to replace the removed APIs
Rookie mistake
I don't know whose end this is on, but it's driving me absolutely up the fucking wall. I've never had a problem like this before. Not to mention the incredibly limited amount of info about 3d secure and Verified by Visa in the US, due to there being better and more secure payment solutions. To say this is driving me up a wall would be an understatement. I've driven up all of the walls I could find. Seriously. There are tire marks and dead squirrels everywhere.
I've spent 4 days trying to figure this out, and I've switch banks because of this. I'm lost.
Neat, looks like HLJ is going to implement some kind of points system like AmiAmi.
Was checking to see if HLJ had changed their quantity limits on some Figuarts and found an unfinished store credit thing had been added to the shopping cart.

Ahh, a fellow Bandai / superior nippon collector I see. Good taste, my friend.
Mods are asleep, post SD.
Post your your rarest fig. Currently Red Son Bats is my only fig, he has survived many ebay purges.
What do you mean by "rare", rare as in most valuable, difficult to get figure, or rare as in something very little people have, and could potentially be worthless though?
>>6031936
bought it from some anon here years ago
>>6031936
Is Armor Girls Project Bismarck any gud?
She is, after all, one of mein fav fictional Nazis. If her action figya is decent, I would give a go.
The quality will be nothing more than acceptable.
It's for people who want that figure but not a high quality display piece.
I heard AGP was ok. Not great or anything. Just ok. I personally wouldn't.
If you like Shitcolle you have no standards anyway, so go for it.
