For those unfamiliar, "Plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model." If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here.

Old Thread: >>6347693
So I left the vote up, and both lines won. So:
Frame Arms Group Build
This time the idea is to build any Frame Arms, or Frame Arms Girl kit, and paint and customize it.
The rules are overall pretty simple, the base must be recognizable as FA or FA Girl, other than that there's no limit on what you can do.
Due Date: September 1st
Note: This is a prize build, there will be a prize provided by me, there will also be a mystery prize provided by another anon. That means that to enter, I need WIP pictures submitted before the due date. Simply email me some pictures of you working on it, I don't care at what point, as long as it's possible to tell where your final product came from.
Prize Pack:
MSG Free Style Bazooka
MSG Impact Knuckle
MSG Beast Sword
MSG Assault Rifle #2
Miscellaneous supplies
I'm probably going to add more, but I'll let those be a secret.
Email: [email protected]
I'm also available via IRC and Steam.
Question from previous thread. Should I get http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-144-HG-RX-78-GP03D-EFSF-s1-gundam-Model-Kit-Water-Slide-Decal/172373155180?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D41376%26meid%3D7d3bc7ad778b4308ab7af0ce262d5d71%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D172530828323 for the dendrobium? (I figure the Force part of the decals being misspelled can be fixed easy enough)
>>6358253
i mean if you want man, we can't really make those decisions for you. Decals are very much to your taste and its your model
What are you throwing? This is my first real mono metal besides the crappy dv888 I had. It's a B grade Prodigy. Yes that Piccolo in the background.

This.. I have had it for two years and I love it.
I want to get this playmobil of Martin Luther, but there seem to be two different types. One is number 6099 and the other 9325. What would be the difference?
>>6346331
the packaging in the top right corner and the book itself has been altered. also fun fact, the older one was released 2 years ago
Where will this be sold? Amazon? is it German only?

I only really care because of the possible implication of other Square properties as Figuarts
>>6344542
FMA Figuarts when?
Sets or companies you wish were around when you were a kid,
>>6337582
World of Nintendo
Xevoz
D-arts, figuarts, figmas and revoltechs
but here's one problem: IF they did exist when i was a kid, i would completely miss them because i had a very small interest in toys. What would we have growing up? also now i think about kids today not being able to get the cool stuff we can get

>still don't own a xevoz figure to this day
I always assumed the figures were just really expensive which is why my parents didn't get them for me. Now I know they were under $10 and my parents just didn't care. Sometimes I still dream of finding them for their original prices at flea markets or thrift stores but can't bring myself to spend $70 on each figure.
>>6345624
Tragic tale. But hey man, you seem to be quite the hard worker, or at least very thorough. I think you could put those skills to use watching eBay like a hawk. See, I missed out on Xevoz too. I came to the party years after the line had ended and was really bummed about it. With some careful eBaying though, I was able to collect nearly the entire line at close to retail prices. You just gotta be diligent. I believe in you.
Chase them, anon...trust me when I say they're STILL WORTH IT. They hold up extremely well even after all this time, and are some of my favorite toys in my collection.
Well it's May now and that means that Pinkle is right around the corner! Are you excited? Or are you waiting around for the fiery queen Vania? Either way, welcome back! Also welcome to any new comers to the Polynian general.
Okay so in figure news we have Pinkle's inspection samples in hand so we can expect more photos soon. Along with this we have news of Lucio's colored prototype coming soon. Only a blurred out teaser was shown.

So are these the final samples? Didn't they have some sort of issue and needed to send shit back to the manufacturer or something?

I'm not too up on news, so we'll just start from here.
Mezco ONE:12 Captain Marvel/Shazam has hit. It's a great figure with some YMMV problems.
Of note: sticky joints, lightning bolt insignia is akin to an iron-on patch and mine was peeling from the moment I opened the box.

Only Revell 1/72 Mig 21 tooling I can find over there. 2004 ain't particularly ancient.

>reddit the collectable toy
I don't get the appeal. They do fucking every brand known to man, they're mass produced, cheap as shit and just overall look tacky. As they so desperately appeal to the "le nerd" sub culture.
I don't get the appeal really they're not a collectable toy becuase there's nothing exclusive about them
The appeal is the they do every brand known to man, they're mass produced and cheap as shit.
>>6336258
I bet you view Beanie Babies as the spawn of satan.
>>6336266
Not at all becuase they had their own unique character their whole appeal wasn't just slap on some branding.
Which I has no problem with McFarland Toys are get but at the same time everything about Funko feels cheap and just about the "$$$" like it feels like it preys on stupid peoples love for media consumption. Don't get me wrong all branded toys do but I feel like funkos feel disingenuous to toy collecting culture

I grew up in the 90s, things were different back then.
Besides, it's not that I was "bound to gender roles", I just figured I'd regret getting those kind of toys, but at the same time I found them fun.
Anyway every time I was at my cousins' I played with their polly pockets, lots of fun with these. Thankfully there was a boy version of those, Mighty Max, loved these.
Generic knight figures? I'm talking full plate, semi-realistic stuff.
Revoltech's gona have you covered soon.

But no, I can't have my dream toyline
