no, i figured this board would have a bunch of meanies, but i wanted to be cool

Sideshow makes excellent quality statueshit. I have a few and I absolutely love them.

That should tell you two things:

1: If you have the cash and you really love the figure, go for it. You won't regret it.

2: This is statueshit. Take it someplace else.

Can you post some pics of yours ?

I'm a yuropoor so i cannot see the "statuesh€t" before buying. Is there any flaws i can expect ? Will the paint craft be as seen in the photos or one step down in the small details ? (As i understand it's cast and paint by chinese painters.).

batman v superman one:12 when?

Shit. I hope they make more. I have been itching for good 1:12 star trek toys.

The Blammo Log is the best one. It's better than bad, it's good.

I had one as a kid and it was great, but it rolled over my neighbor's dog and my parents made me get rid of it. :(

Log is pretty great, just make sure you have a big enough hill to make the most of your log rolling fun!

I already know about the Polynians.

I bought a charming drossel for 7k last week.
Look up Black Lotus and the original Drossel.

>>5323760
From Mandarake? If so, good deal. Black Lotus looks pretty cool. I might be interested in her later on. Thanks, anon.

People are scalping them because they're the "hot new thing" right now.

>>5347854
First off, eBay and many other online websites can be poor representations of a toy/s value. You have people scalping (buying toys in higher demand for a higher price to make a profit, see your picture). You also have people overestimating a figure's value, also seen in your picture.

Star Wars usually doesn't have limited release figures, and if they do they are usually comic convention exclusives and are stated as such. Sometimes waves of figures are harder to find than others, since distributions of those figures can get screwed up. You have figures from certain distributions being in higher demand than others (Captain Phasma versus Finn for example). There are a ton of reasons a figure can be set at a higher price outside of inflation.

The 3.75" Star Wars figures got screwed like a year ago. They divided the line into 5 points of articulation (usually $3-4 a figure), and the higher point of articulation figures (which are now $12, which is a huge rip-off imo). They used to be $5-$7, but jumped in price over the past couple of years.

And yeah parents get the worst end of the bargain if they don't pay attention to the market for some figures. ToysRUs likes to take advantage of this quite often by having higher prices than MSRP for most their stuff.

All I can say is, shoot for MSRP prices for figures always. If you can get it cheaper then go for it. Hope this helps.

>>5347868
Oh I noticed a mistake. The 5 point of articulation 3.75" figures are now like $6 or $7 since the Force Awakened figures started up, even though they used to be about that price for 2 figures. Now is not a good time to be a Star Wars figure collector imo.

>buying lego simpsons
Literally kill yourself abd GTFO /toy/, plebian shittaste bitch.

I got the newest Millennium Falcon. It was a pretty fun build. Not sure if you're into Star Wars, though.

>>5347362
Family Guy fan detected.

Was it Japanese?

Was it a Battle Droid?

>>5347123
No
>>5347126
And no, aswell. It was a lego nexo knight, i lost it on my bed, i was afraid its in the drive way runover(i still havent found it), si i threw everything iff my bed looking for it, making me loose scarface, my only friend. Being alone made me panic, so i frantically looked for him all night, only now finding him.

The plastic is generally pretty on par with the authentic versions. The rubbery plastic on the chest shell is pretty stiff on the knock offs compared to the real ones preventing you from using the ab crunch but to be fair that joint doesn't have much range to begin with.

Just watch out for some of the hip joints. I haven't had any break but some are kinda loose. Overall they are totally worth it for the cheap prices they go for on ebay.

>>5344138
so no brittle plastic syndrome?
and do they hold their weapons well?

/v/ plays Lego licensed video games so their arguments are invalid.

>>5343575
I'll put you under "Pro-Prostitutes" then

>>5343568
God help me but /v/ is right.

Prostitutes cost you money and pretty much achieve what I can do with one hand only with the chance of an STD :^)

>>5342714
They are not rare, and in fact if I remembered, peg-warmed quite a long time.

Hope you didn't pay a lot for it, or buy it because you thought it was rare.
