I only own these.

I bought myself Digimon Cyber Sleuth to play on a couple of long-haul flights I was on this month. It's great. Kinda makes me wanna buy a Digivice. I used to collect Tamagotchis, but never Digimon. What are the best/most recent ones?

/toy/ is a slow board, someone will have your answer, maybe not now, but eventually. Maybe it would help if you posted in the related general as well

Depends on how many and how rare. Obviously a troll thread. But seeing how high some gashapon go for especially videogame themed ones. Tis a scalpers dream

>>5721812
>Am I wrong
I mean, what kind of dumb question is this. Some people do make unequal trades, it happens. So what.
Now, if someone says "I want ____ for this figure", where _____ is a dollar amount, or a specific item, and you offer gashapons instead, depending on the circumstance someone could think you were a chucklefuck.

Hope this helps.

If someone denies the trade, then you were wrong. If they accept it, then you were right.

It depends on the complexity of the toy.
Mostly they differ in the end. Since the stockphotos are prototypes, from original companies or the thing copied.
If something is complexer the looking or paint job differs. Not necessarily, but mostly.

A lot about how good the figures look like depends on the photography.
Of course photos made in a well lit studio by a pro look different than some photo taken by a phone in shitty light.
I'm also sure the one on the right is a bootleg.

I have a few 1/6 myself and some of them look out of the box pretty normal, as soon as I start taking pictures of them they "work" way better.

The MGS Hot Toys were pretty good (heh), but they are also older releases and Hot Toys are better nowadays.
If you are unsure about an already released figure just look for reviews.
Here's one of a pretty new HT for example:
http://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW-060616a.htm

And here's one of The Boss and Naked: http://www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_012014b.htm

Posing them is a bit of a pain in the ass because of the suits.
Naked is also the better looking of the two.

Thanks for the info!
If I wanted to buy something like the OP pic that is sold out and has tons of fakes on eBay, how would I be able to tell if even a single one listed is genuine? U.S sellers could have bought theirs from China/HK eBay as well.

Are we still posting custom abominations, or has that ship sailed?

This guy's videos are animated well enough, but am I the only one who finds them bland? Seems to be a common thread with stop-motion animators when Transformers are involved.

Are you nine, op?

I recall seeing something about abs plastic and lacquer paints not mixing well. Does that mean that I won't be able to top coat abs pieces with Tamiya's spray cans?

Nope

I keep them in the box so they dont get dusty

I only dust them when I play with or re-arrange my displays, which only happens twice a year maybe.

Alan?

send it to me and i'll send it to them for you

Im talking about the info.
They asked me for my info and i dont know where to sent it.
Not the figure.

>>5720533
>Easiest

Lego.

>Highest quality

Hot Toys, Arcadia/Yamato, various Bandai lines.

>>5720533
Funko Pops are garbage, you can collect them, but don't ever mention having them

>What are some of the most popular or high quality toy brands or genres that people get into (at least on this board)?
Figma, S.H. Figuarts, Transformers/unofficial third party, Revoltech/Vulcanlog, Nendoroid, Super Action Statues, Robot Damashii, Super Robot Chogokin, Ultra-act 2.0 (for Ultraman), S.H. Monsterarts, Cu-poche, etc etc.
Other Western shit includes like Marvel Legends or LEGO.
Basically, most people here collect animushit, robotshit, and/or tokushit.
>What type of toys are easiest for people to get into?
Most of what's listed, except maybe Ultra-act and Monsterarts because many are discontinued/expensive on the aftermarket. Third party Transformers are also pretty steep.
>General rules/etiquette that are followed?
1. Don't be a faggot, respect others opinions, don't talk shit you don't know about, etc
2. Do your own research first before asking questions, seriously.
3. Ignore the obvious shitposters, report and ignore.
4. Invest in Shock Oil lubricant (for tight joints), fine sandpaper, and acrylic clear polish (for loose joints). You'll need it.

Also, just buy whatever you like. I don't know why some people here buy things for /toy/ credit.
