For those unfamiliar, "Plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model." If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here.

SD Group Build
Rules:
Pick up an SD anything, plane, Gundam/other MS, whatever, if it's generally an SD it counts (so I hope to see someone do a D-Style). Obviously, per all group builds, you'll want to paint it.
Submissions:
Email it to [email protected]
USE AN ACTIVE EMAIL ADDRESS
Due Date: November 1st
Good news! A kind anon has purchased some prizes for the group build. He has decided to do a random drawing rather than judge them like I did in the previous group build. Winners will be contacted via email.
For those curious, I intend to start the secret Santa signups on October 1st.
First for Doki Doki Love Deathbeams

shitty posing thread
Anything made by Hasbro cannot be posed well.

I just found out X-Men '92 is a thing, and with the recent Legends Rogue and upcoming Cyclops coming out, I'm hopeful for a Jim Lee Wolverine and the rest of the crew to come soon.

I don't know why i get sideways pictures from time to time I posted that picture form my PC.
Are the mastermade figures worth a pick up? That omega and Trypticon just look so tempting and fun.
Are He-Man toys sexist?
>>5904433
I don't know about sexiest but he is pretty attractive for a toy.
>>5904433
Sexist toward straight.
>>5904433
yeah, where's She-Woman? women can fight too
So i saw this tonight at TRU walking past the LEGO aisles to the action figure side.
I only saw two and when i went back to the LEGO aisles 8 minutes later, they had only one left. Mine. Apparently, they're selling really well according to the manager up front.
Never played the game and only know it because of my nephews. They're creepy Chuckie Cheese rip offs, so i had to get it. They're really nicely done and i'll have to buy more, if i ever see them again.
Creepy as fuck and much better to play with than regular lego figures.
They only feature swivels, but they're enough of them to make them fun to play with.
The heads are all interchangable, but only the main figure has the out opens. The skeleton is also poseable.
>>5904350
wow, i didnt know it did that. nice to know these are selling well
Why aren't there posing threads anymore?
I did one last month with the body-kun. Not many participants though.
>>5904301
Generally the pose been asked to recreate is boring.
Maybe posing threads should have topics to recreate a bit like the Lego threads building challenges.
I would love active pose threads, I usually try to keep them alive, but I get tired of seeing a thread that's 80% of my shit set up.
There's a pretty cool transformer bro that keeps them active sometimes too.

>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.
>Check the BST threads, My Figure Collection, and Busou Shinki World too.

Preordered my Megami Device girls, better get yours before they're all sold out.

>>5899128
There's a few slowpokes out there who haven't got theirs yet. It would really suck to have to wait for the reissue.
