It's happening. Those crafty bootleggers finally did it.

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.
>>5562924
It'll be interesting to see, given that these are on the higher end of the bootleg spectrum, if the bootleggers get the idea into their heads to start improving the figures. Different plastic colours and less nightmarish meth-fiend paint apps on the skin would be a great start.
>>5562924
i'm waiting for some shrinked ones, can bootlegers do that?
>>5563296
If only, the scale of PAK figures is so fucking stupid. They don't fit in with any other fucking toyline.
>>5563328
the idea is that you don't need any other toyline, seing how many franchises there are in the PAKverse.
>>5563390
That would work if fucking pak were in scale with each other. They are not even in scale within the same franchise.
>>5563390
Except even different PAK lines are different sizes

Holy shit Wonder Woman is a fucking TANK.
>>5563296
bootlegs are usually just recasts
>>5562924
looks like a PAK to me
>>5562924
Looks like a stolen factory reject.
>>5563608
It's possible that a lot of the "bootlegs" you find on eBay and Aliexpress could be stolen factory rejects.
Thing is PAK quality control is pretty shitty anyway so it's entirely plausible.

This just in!: Local Toy Collector Played Like a Damn Fiddle!
>>5562924
Can't look any worse than regular PAK.

snu snu
>>5562924
Quiet bootleg when?
>>5563468
not trying to bate here, but couldn't that be actually accurate? i expect wonder woman to be really tall.
>>5564123
Shrunken down to 1/12th scale when?
>>5563468
just looked it up. Seems about right:
Cat Woman: 5 ft 7 in (1.70 m)
Wonder Woman: 6' 0" (6'2"-6'3" in heels)
(1,80 m)
>>5562924
Made an even worse product than the original?
>>5563296
>shrinked
Idiot.
>>5564123
Someone posted that they found one on aliexpress a while back but IIRC they disappeared and the order was canceled so I think the bootlegger got in trouble.
>>5565120
I don't think that was a bootleg, I think the guy was just a scammer.
>>5563617
Looks like his toys weren't the only things being played with, here's Cynthia with the weather.
I actually want one of those. Can't afford the real ones.
>>5565163
Also possible.
