If you don't specify what brand/line/company and have a solid marketing plan to back it up, the most you'll get is shitty Funko POOP! vinyl thing.

Where to buy
>GSC Online Shop - some figmas only are available through their online shop

>Hobby Search Japan - items stay in stock the longest
>Mandarake - search figma or フィグマ

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

You knoe what versions of the TMNT need new figures but probably won't due to 80s nostalgiafagging everywhere?
Cool, some ninja turtles that look like all the other ninja turtles
>>5861521
They actually don't.
I'm an 80's TMNT nostalgiafag and even I can admit that the 2K turtles had some really cool designs and possibly the best storyline outside the comics.
I'd love to see modern retakes of their future perfect designs.
Love the 80s show bit the 2003 show was amazing. I used to a big collection of the figures from that line when I was younger but sold them all :/

Speaking of Coffee, did Kayke make it to BJDC? She finally got wise enough to separate her art from her insane shit, but said she was in an inpatient facility.
>>5859839
I like beansproutmomo too. I think the anon that posted her Coffee was pretty much alluding to the fact that this doll is a trainwreck.
I just impulse purchased a bunch of vintage vinyl dolls. Can't wait to have them in my grubby little hands. I know one is a Susie Sad Eyes she needs a bit of work.
Did I just completely overlook the thread this was posted in or something? Why has no one here mentioned this yet?
That's lookin' gooooooooooood. Now we just need Brienne of Tarth so I can make them smooch and make up.
so the non-exclusive version doesn't include the helmet? Might as well not include the hands. Who the fuck would buy this without the sweet helmet?
Never bought a 3A figure before. Are they pretty solid or fragile hipster trash? I want to be able to change up the poses and fiddle with it and not just put it in 1 pose and leave it on a shelf forever.

Have a figure mimic this pose, /toy/.
Not as easy as it looks. Maybe with a fig with shorter legs.

Well, none of the monsters at least. I want a Cyclops

Out of nowhere!
>>5852908
Damn, I was hoping the SoC would be the definite version. Looking at the individual bots I'm skeptical.
>>5852908
Still think the legacy is a better value
With the Japanese market being what it is now with the yen influx, I wonder if Bandai is thinking of targeting the western market more and more. That makes two SoC releases in the last month debuting at American conventions, both of which have more relevance in the west than the east.
Personally I'm ecstatic. I ahve a few SoCs(Gaogaigar, Gunbuster, Big O), and I love them but I'm not much of a fan of 70's/80's super robots. I'm happy to see them doing more like this.
I just started on Marvel Legends and was wondering if anybody physically shops? I'm a college sophomore and feel awkward as fuck strolling down the toy aisle, but I'm looking for Rogue without paying overpriced eBay fees. I bought a few online but went to Walmart at 6 AM and bought Scarlet Witch in the self-checkout.
Look normalish and nobody gives a damn
I try to, but there's a scalper in my area. No matter when I go to the store, they've already cleared out.

mixed feelings on cartoon colored xenos. they bother me because they disrupt the movie vibe but they add a little variety.

Shit. A new thread .Thought there was an error with my post. No wonder duplicate error.

Was Trunks 2.0's SS hair also looks like that? Why is the banana color hair making a comeback? I thought that was done with the PC version. And that shitty smug. Think I'll cancel my pre-order.

News:
>The first Megami Device is up for preorder and includes a full Machinca body with swappable parts to make two distinct characters (just not at the same time).
>The second MD looks as far along development wise but isn't available for PO just yet, and there are more waves planned already with additional designers signed on. Get hyped.
>FAGs still going strong with more rereleases available now and even more new designs in the works
>Desktop Army's first wave is shipping, with two waves prototyped so far and concepts for even more
>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.

This sitting pose is cute.
No collection thread? I guess I'll start one, want to show off some changes I've made.
1/2
Not many changes here, just added the SDCC Legacy Red Mighty Morphin' Ranger. I've got Green on the way.
>>5841080
2/2
Added a few things here. I swapped out the shitty Walmart exclusive Miles with the new ML. Also got Ultimate Pete as well. I added Carmine Infantino Robin to my Batman Black and White collection. I've got Damian by Frank Quietly on pre-order. He'll look great with DickBats.
Post your collections!
