the question is, do you want a giant mecha for your lego style figures?

Yes, they're fun to play with and are very poseable.

They're a must if you're into 1:18 figures, since they're like half an inch shorter than what they would be in 1:18 scale. A 4" figure will fit in the cockpit, as long as you don't insert the chair.
Everyone loves 1:18 mecha.

Nice.

Also OP if they are $15 that's an awesome price. Now I want to pick one of each up for my Bloks.

The mini figs and mini fig weapons look pretty sweet too.

They became cheap for the same reason that 1990s baseball cards are cheap. They were aimed at and collected by an older audience that put them away expecting them to become valuable. I don't know anybody that actually played with Star Trek figures. So you have something like half the Trek figures ever made still sitting on card in closets or shops all over the country. Now, because they are ultimately toys, most of those cards are pretty rough, either through manhandling at retail or curling with age, making them not particularly desirable as display pieces. On the other hand, they're kind of so-so as functional toys and have been surpassed by the Diamond figures from a few years back. Sure, they have their charm, like Diaclone or ARAH, but there's a whole generation of collectors who outright shit on anything that isn't a Figma.

Fuckboy that mini is suppose to come with a scarf piece that is already around his neck, that covers that area since the scarf is a permanent feature on the sculpt.

You'll have to wait for Juggy Briggs to get one first now since the MK guys are pushing the new generation.

Also, everyone knows black figures don't sell :^)

I'd swear he's had at least one.

The joints don't look like Myth Cloth and the plastic looks cheaper, but maybe it's just the lighting.

From a 2 second google search and it seems like they are 4 inch figures that come with a diorama and effect parts.

All I can find on them is that they're 4" figures, and that the diorama parts can be assembled together to make the temple from the show's ED.

Also that they had probably the most bitchin display at TN15.

Grunt Bash Group Build
It's time for a new group build, and damn simple one. All you need to do is combine a grunt design with a one off design, including named Gundams, Sazabi, Kampfer, and the like.

Due By: November 10th
As always, send it to (and post it here!): [email protected]

Gunpla/Plamo Secret Santa!

Sign ups run until December 4th. I'll try to have everyone paired up by December 6th.

Like last year, I'm going to have everyone fill out a Google form so I can collect the information easily.

Also, if you have some kits in your backlog that you are willing to part with feel free to email me a list and estimated values.

Hey guys, This is the unicorn head stand, are these hard to find and can I only buy them with the HG unicorn special edition set?

>>5263252

Like should I use from japan with my tenso account or would it be the same just to use their from japan service and ship it to the states?

My only experience has been with Noppin. It's a bit of a confusing start, as they require you to make a deposit up front to prove you have dough & aren't gonna fuck them, but you can get it back mad quickly. The service is pretty good, they keep you up to date, they'll hold items so as to group them together, etc. but the fees can reach bullshit-high levels. Depends what you're gonna do, I guess. Works out to be like a $7-ish charge per item bidded on, & you pay for the item to not only come to your door, but for it to get to theirs in the first place. $16 of goods ran me like $48 in the end.

Buyee nigga

Mcfarlane made Akira figures? What the fuck?

>>5264615

Yeah. From their Anime line, lasted two waves. They did Kaneda, Tetsuo, Kaneda's bike, a clown thug and Akira.

Well, like most McFarlane figures, they're basically statues. They look really nice, though.

Get the fuck out of my thread

I was looking at this thing myself. Will probably pick it up if any EU retailers get it. Apparently it uses the same body and a lot of the gear of previous figures by this company, so you could probably find some reviews for those. That should give a pretty good idea for what it's gonna be like.

Did you find the German giraffe they did too yet? Don't like that one as much. The neck isn't long like giraffes have, so it just kinda looks weird to me.
