OLD THREAD >>5583687
First for OP is a fag.
Isn't there a X-Men wave coming out soon?
I just bought the Venom Legends for $30 at Emerald City Comic con.
I saw the Legends Spider-Gwen for $45. I know it's scalper price, but I need someone to convince me not to buy it. I want it so bad.
We pose our figs in sexy poses.
Example in pic.
Also not my pic.
Post 'em now sweet /toy/!
>>5589439
No, part of me wants to just sell them or throw them away.
Being addicted to plastic is the worst feeling in the world. I do not even feel anything when obtaining anything new.I don't even play with toys, I'm better off with statue shit.
Yet I still buy and look at pictures of others collection, one day wishing and hoping me being cynical about it will be a phase.
I don't like your collection as I do not like Star Wars, also don't like how they're all spread out on the table. Why no shelves? risers?
>>5589439
Extremely.
>>5589439
Fuck yeah, Star Wars!

Modern Throttlebots when?
Shitty day. Not very productive. Got rained on.
Popped into my local toy shop and who should I see but motherfucking WRECK-GAR? I didn't even know this guy was out anywhere, never mind the UK. We're usually 1-2 waves behind, but there he was at the front of the pegs.
Guys, look at this info i got about the SDCC Dragon Ball Figure.
"According to Alex Blas from Ageless Geeks, the SDCC will:
Not be a hero
Not be a new figure
We may have mixed feelings about it"
What figure may they launch that day? Do you have any clues, or more "Top Secret info." we should know? :) i'll be here reading your comments.
Maybe a Cell PCE? Guess no, i donĀ“t have Cell normal for its price now, can't imagine Cell PCE SDCC
Inb4 Vegeta repaint.
>Not be a hero
Vegeta
>Not be a new figure
Vegeta
>We may have mixed feelings about it"
Half of you will be "YAY VEGETA OVER 9000 LOL", the other half will be "Fuck, not another Vegeta.
>>5608041
>Inb4 Vegeta
What do you mean with "Inb4" ? Hope will be that figure and not a Bardock or Cell PCE, by the way, with the story, did vegeta become a hero too right? He ain't bad guy anymore, don't he? So that's why i don't think the figure will be Vegeta.
Those of you just joining us, please read this guide. Please read it before asking questions as there is a chance it has already been answered there.
For those unfamiliar, "Plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model." If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here.

Any theories on Liokaiser?
It will be trash just like every other figure since 2010.

who the fuck is that monster?
Oh no, an e-drama thread
So I've had second thoughts on buying a figure from Amiami and want to cancel the order but I just found out they don't do cancellations. Have any of you guys ever canceled an order from Amiami? I'm planning on buying more stuff from them and have an order coming at the end of the month. The figure I want to cancel doesn't come out til August so there shouldn't really be an issue right?
>>5605854
You can cancel as long as you have a good reason. They won't be happy about it.
>>5605854
Amiami is great as long as you're sure of your purchases. If you're new to shopping with them I wouldn't dick around with cancellations. If you contact them regarding a cancellation and be polite they're usually understanding enough, but they still don't like it and might be less forgiving if you're never bought much from them before.
I'd say either make up your mind, or go to HLJ for the item.
If it's your first time, they might allow it if you send them a polite email. But don't make a habit of it or they'll ban your account.
are there any toys out there that you just wonder, who the fuck is buying this?
I don't mean to make this some sort of troll thread where people post moderately popular toys that you just think are shitty. Or even a thread intended for shitty toys in general. Its more for wondering just why people would dedicate so much time an energy to something that doesn't seem like it'd sell well, or have a really niche audience, and doesn't seem all that appealing beyond that.
Like this. I know Bayformers has its fans, but do people even like this Starscream? Can you even tell what's going on in this image? I get spending $30-50 on a retail version of a toy of this design, but $400 on something from a Michael bay movie? Who'd want this nasty thing as a centerpiece of a display?
>>5598639
It's a shame because these are by all accounts some of the best items ThreeA's made in recent years. Really amazingly engineered and painted, very much premium high-end collectables justifying the price tag.
But as you say, I can't wrap my head around anyone with an ounce of taste wanting the Bayformers designs front and centre in their collections. I guess there must be at least 500 people out there who do though, or they wouldn't still be making these.
>>5598639
>Who'd want this nasty thing as a centerpiece of a display?
Yeah. Who would want something ugly on their display?
>>5598684
Bayformers are impressive design-wise, tho. Translating organic functionality to machinery, playing with the position of the vehicle mode's parts, and coming up with recognizable silhouettes from that kind of aesthetic and shit.
Only reason people dislike them is NOT MUH TRANSFORMERS.
>>5598684
The transformers bot modes are shit. Ridiculously overdesigned to the point they carry no resemblence or connection to their vehicle mode.
Bayformers is garbage.
Who is getting Teto?

Make videos. Give me high definition photos showing the detail and engineering of the figures. Your shitty low quality videos and nasally ass voice tell me nothing.

>"uh... heh."
>>5597309
Video consisting of anything but clear shots of the figure.
I've done product ad and review videos. You don't see dick all but the product. That's the point.
You don't need to do it in one cut. I don't need to see you fidget and screw up posing for a minute. Just cut to it displayed properly.
I never saw one figuart school girl figure that looked good.
At best it was "ok", like the Maki Love Live figuarts. But it looks like shit when compared to the Maki figma.
Doesn't Bandai have more money and is also bigger than GSC?
How come they can't do a better looking product?
>>5594907
In what way do they look like shit?
Figma wins
