My monsterarts destroyah is getting kinda dusty. Does anyone know a way to dust off something with such ridges?
Soft tooth brush?

Hello /toy/!
Newbie collector here. I was walking around my local Walmart/Kmart/Toys-r-us looking for something that caught my eye just to add to my small and pitiful collection when I thought of something. I thought, "Whats the craziest thing someone has ever done for a /toy/ they wanted?". Since none of my friends collect, I bring the question to you. Now this question is very broad and generic, I know, but interesting nonetheless. This could be when you grabbed something from a kid that you knew would destroy it, bought something instead of paying a bill, or camped in line for a day to be the first to have it, whatever you consider crazy. Since I'm not a hardcore collector sadly I don't have a crazy story to tell but I would like to hear yours! Also, pics of your collections would be awesome to see as well!
I spent almost $90 on a Bandai GMK Godzilla that had paint scuffs and no tag because I didn't feel like looking for one on eBay.
>>5374006
time for some good old turkish snacks, topkek
i spent 500$ on a haruhi figma set and 500$ on a k-on figma set back in 2009 when I was 18
I regretted it, so to redeem myself from looking like a pussy, I bought the whole fucking set, and I'm talking whole fucking set of Gokaiger figuarts and Shinkenger.
When I feel a little more like a dude finally, I realized I'm still childish.
So I've chilled on the huge purchases.
Then I realized I spent a lot on toys over the course of the years without knowing, Lego, MB, etc
Fuck this hobby, The past 6 months though I have only gotten some Star Wars shit and I don't feel like such a bitch.
Only thing that comes to mind is that one time I camped out all night for WonFes during the winter of '14 the day after the heaviest snowfall in decades hit Tokyo.
What Ibuki figure should I get, Play Arts or SOTA? Scale is not important and neither is price.
From what I can see the Play Arts looks more screen accurate but I don't like that her face is not covered up while for the SOTA one the pants look a bit odd and I was told Ibuki's legs are a little loose.
>>5372637
Don't think theres much for Ms. Target Combo
>>5372637
>Ibuki's legs are a little loose.
At least it's accurate to the source material then.
>>5372637
I like the PAK, it's a little stylized more than the game. Easy to pose, good range of movement, and it's pretty hot. Soft chest and ass. Only problems were that her front hair pieces come out very easily and she can't stand on her own very well so you have to use the stand.
Best figure of this guy under $200?
>>5367238
Either wait for the figuarts a new hope han or save a bit more and buy the hot toys.
No smaller han's are going to be half as good as the figuarts and no larger ones will stack to the hot toys.

Will Figuarts realease old Han? I want to collect my favorite force awakens characters but they only have Kylo Ren atm
Post toys that have nor right to have been made, whose function is baffiling, or just boring unplayable trash (pic highly related).

But... it comes with a bonus license plate.

That looks great. I'd definitely use that as a figure accessory.

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

I updated the amiibo checklist with Corrin and Bayonetta, but I am unable to post the image because I'm getting a "connection error." Is there a reason for that? Should I just post a link?
I also found a way to cut off one of the rows and move those amiibo up, so it looks much cleaner now!

Hi /toy/, i've been thinking in starting to collect toys and figures, but my concern is the dust. How do you prevent the toys from catching too much dust or do yo clean them periodically? If so, how do yo clean the ones with really tight spots? Do you just dissamble them?
>>5372572
If it concerns you that much, don't start.
I find the sweet spots of my place that doesn't get dusty, and put my collection there.

Mattel
>>5280309
They need to redoo this doll properly desu.
Mattel just released a bunch of ballerinas and some "birthday" dolls, all super boring and uninspired, even if some have nice faces in the prototype images.
There's also the new Barbie Look dolls.
In wich they try to be a little like what they portrait on instagram...
I miss the rooted lashes, and the outfits are not exactly for my taste, but I think I'll get one of them.
>>5280618
They need to shitcan whoever is obsessed with making everything look like cheap crap from the 80s-early 90s. If people really wanted to pay $30-50 for 80s/90s Superstar era junk, most of it wouldn't be $5 on eBay.
