What are some good Dracula figures? Can be from anything.
Mezco will probably do one in their One:12 Collective line. It will probably be around 80 dollars though.

I know it's a pipedream but I kinda hope they'd make a Nosferatu now that you mention this.
hey /toy/, I recently discovered that there is a collector market for sofubi nowadays. Ever since I was a kid I've loved sparkly/transparent/glow in the dark silicone figurines and thought I would try my hand at making some. I am a glassblower by trade and in the future wanted to make molds for a couple of my designs, but the question is, is it worth it? I'd appreciate if you could post any of your favorite figures and point out what makes them valuable and appealing compared to others, I plan on making them as a hobby if I cannot market the idea. Thank you!
>>5702594
So basically you're an unoriginal hack who is trying to make a quick buck like every other dumbfuck with this market who thinks their ocdonutsteel sculpt is worth a gorillion dollars each piece.
Don't bother. The only reason they're expensive is because
>Actually talented and well known painters/sculptors are making them
Or
>Well-known vinyl shit group makes them
Make mustard gas and kill yourself.

Hey op, that's pretty neat that you are thinking of living the dream with making your own toys. I appreciate that you are reaching out to the net for input.
I personally have not seen many well done ball jointed vinyl figures. Even if its just a neck, shoulder or waist, I feel like it adds a lot to the figure. I have no idea if this works well with vinyl at all, but there's my shitty input.
>>5702806
Cringe...
Is there anyway to fix pic related. I have OCD and it's annoying the fuck out of me. I got the piece for free but it's an expensive piece to replace and I can't paint for shit. Any ideas or do I just have to succumb to the torment and wait until I stop noticing it?
>>5701462
well, looks like you already answered your own question
>>5701471
A there's no other way?

If you look at the old UCS Millenium Falcon adjusted for inflation, it's cheap as fuck
Ok guys. So, I took my thinker from the shelf, and when I tried to rotate his head, the joint broke. How bad did I fucked up? Is there a way to fix? Maybe buy another head? Pls help!
>>5697311
Don't they sell spare figma style joints
>>5697313
I dont know friend. The problem is that even if the joint is broken, how do I remove the piece inside the neck and the head?
>>5697311
The joint is fucked beyond repair.
You'll need to heat up the neck piece (with boiling water or a hairdryer) and try to pry out the broken peg without damaging the surrounding area where the peg goes in.
Take out the other half of the joint from the head with some tweezers or something.
It's going to need a new joint. You can't buy 'another head' without getting any entirely new figure, the head isn't the thing that's broken.
Nendo or Figma, what's more likely for this glorious character?
Goodsmile has to have him coming since they did Nendo Kirby & Meta Knight is coming. However, I think a Figma figure would better suit him due to his size.
>>5696456
>Goodsmile
Enjoy your Nendo, senpai.
>>5696456

Seeing as you had to ask, FigFix

So pre-orders for these will open on the 1st of June, if I'm reading right, yes?
Are black lights ok to have around figures /toy/?
Pic related
>>5687990
Only if you hot glue them from time to time to stop the blacklight from causing damage.
>>5687996
What if it were an led black light? I'm aware of florescent lights damaging everything, but I want to be sure if like your average light that something like one of the LED black lights will not cause any sort of damage, that or one of these things.
As long as you don't buy your figures secondhand.
Figuarts when? Entire James Bond line fucking when?

Never because the rights owner has a strict taboo on all Bond toys.

Sounds like we need a special agent to take care of some business

Why do I get the feeling this preorder page is full of shit? Oh maybe because it's GBJR/Shocker
Regardless, you'll still be able to file a Paypal case if they end up screwing you over.
That said, when did these pre-orders open up? I thought Shocker Toys went defunct or something.
It's through GBJR, the Shocker "successor", and I get the feeling these order pages went up in 2014-2015, before the "lost" the steel molds. Then they found them but the licensors wanted more money and they did a kickstarter then Geoff fled with the money.
How do people who do this avoid prosecution?
Shocker toys still disappoints me, I really wish Marvel Toys survived and Legendary comic book heroes continues. Most of the things Shocker toys got their hands on where things I wanted LCBHs to get.
Does First 4 Figures only make statues?
or do they make figures?
Have never hear of them before....
>>5703066
I saw this picture on facebook the other day, and asked myself the same questions.
As far as I can see they only make statues, unfortunately.
That sculpt is looking good though.
>>5703066
Pretty sure they only make statues. Sorry dude. I mean, don't get me wrong, any sort of Dark Souls merch has me excited, but yeah, it woulda been really nice if this were for an Ornstein and Smough articulated 1/6 set.
>>5703100
a 1/6 Smough would be really large.
as in masive.
Galvatron will never get a perfect toy edition.

if it's two pieces fused together it's still meant to count as one piece. i mean, if you take them apart you'll end up with two fucked up pieces.
can anyone who has an Axl post a picture of what the inside of the torso looks like?
