This isn't new, we've known about PAK bootlegs for a while. Plus, they're still fucking expensive. A lot cheaper than the highway robbery S-E charges, sure, but the fact is you're still paying the price of a legit Figma or SHF or SAS for a fucking bootleg. A bootleg of a PAK, which are full of issues (both sculpt and engineering wise) as is. I'd rather take my $60 and use it on something better, thanks.

Oh yeah PAK bootlegs have been around a while but this is the first time I've seen a MGSV bootleg.
I agree, it's way too much fucking money for a bootleg.

There's also about four or five different version of the Virgin Mary. Again, nobody in Christendom gives a flying fuck, unlike those whiny Hindus.

What's your favorite scale? Mine is between 1/10th or 1/12th, maybe 1/12 slightly more

meant to say 1/10th slightly more
>>
>>5554252
1/12 means 6" right? because yes.
>>
>>5554280
1/12 means take the height of the object and divide it by 12. 1/12 only means 6 inches if the particular thing is originally 6 feet tall

Bionicle was so cool in the first year. What would have happened if they kept the mysterious lore and never changed the aesthetic, but built on what they had made?

nah the new stuff is trash they threw all the mysticism, mysteriousness out the window. with puffy masks and superhero chests

I found the later figures alright (2006 and 2009 were great years), but the lore lost it's touch I think. 2009 had a chance to do something interesting, but it was gutted pretty quick.

Meanwhile, Fanstoys is finally clearing out some of their backlog. Supposedly Kickback is April and Hound (with the improved head sculpt here) is June/July.

that kickback would be perfection with a glossy black finish and a better headsculpt. Oh well.

Unorthodox toy thread? Unorthodox toy thread.
When I was a kid, I used pic related to simulate the Martian spaceships from The War of the Worlds and pretend to ray-gun my figurines and Army guys.
What random objects did you appropriate for your play setups?

I'm hoping for more kid-proportioned Figmas myself, ALBW Link looks pretty good. I could definitely see an Astro Boy or Mega Man based on that same framework

Less than two weeks to go and they're only a third of the way there, you guys reckon they'll make it?
I was hopeful at first but i'm not too sure now. Shame since i wanted to get a bunch of those glow in the dark skeletons to go with Quan Chi.

1/18 is shit and dead, nobody gives a crap about it.

Maybe, the ninja one (which I'm still fucking waiting on) was dead in the water until the last few days when they decided to step in and show off shit for once.
These guys apparently aren't involved at all, going by their comments.

You guys ever include anything toy related as your interests and hobbies on a resume?
are there really ways of making things like making model kits or collecting toys seem like a good thing?
I guess you could also put down things like photography

No.
No.
I guess that would be the best way to put it.
>>
>>5555524
no...unless it's something that could be considered a tertiary skill, somehow beneficial to the company, or paints you in a good light don't mention it.
maybe if you had interest in buildling RC planes or geology it might be ok to mention, but collecting action figures? no

Saying you enjoy photography is fine, saying you enjoy taking photos of toys is not.
I think of every potential employer as an idiot normie who likes nothing but sports and drinking beer with other idiot normies. If it's not something that a normie would enjoy, I wouldn't put it on my resume.
It's a harsh truth, but that's the catch 22 of finding a job.
They want someone outstanding, but also completely plain and unexceptional who'll fall in line like an obedient wage slave.

I was talking strictly SHFSS. Kuuga (series) has base + 2 upgrades + Daguva, Decade will likely be base + upgrade + Diend, Kabuto will be base + upgrade + Gattack. Agito, Hibiki, and Kiva will just have the base form of their main Riders. I'd expect a bike too with all the bike pushing lately but Hibiki doesn't have his either.

Hey /toy/ so I recently bought this gun accessory (along with another revolver) modeled after the gun used by the character Vash The Stampede from the anime called "Trigun". I say accessory because it's scaled for 6-inch figures and I obviously plan to give it to my figures. Thing is, the next day I ended up ordering some head casts from the same site: http://castingcave.ecrater.com/
Strangely, the head casts arrived just recently but I have yet to receive the guns despite ordering the head casts at a later date. Has this happened to anyone who have dealt with Casting Cave? Adding to my worries, I live in Australia and I'm scared that our country's silly laws might deem the gun accessories as a no-no where I could be in trouble for buying tiny guns (though this could just be my autism flaring up).
Can anyone offer some advice? Am I fucked?

Track the package, foo (or call the company). It might be something mundane (like they had the heads in stock and ready to go).

It's your autism.
Fellow ausfag here, never had a trouble bringing in 1/12 toys in the shape of guns.

Why would customs confiscate 1/12 guns? It's not like you could shoot someone with it
Finished this bad ass last night. My only compliant is that it's fragile as fuck...
