Never Ever in your collection edition
ITT: we discuss any Star Wars related figures Movies, EU or otherwise
Never ever indeed. I found the E-Wing and Jabba's Sail Barge from that wave, but never the TIE Defender.
>>5758839
at this point im still debating whether or not just to man up and drop the 200 or so that most of them go for before they are all bought up or keep trying my luck/drowning the pain of not owning one of these by collection those little starship magazines
>Action Fleet
Oh damn, I had quite a few of these. My favorite was the AT-AT that was remote controlled, and it had a little snow covered display base with AT-AT footprint impressions. It was cool having it walk all over the fold-out Hoth base.
we dem bois
>>5758839
Man, I always wanted the E-Wing and Tie Defender. I still have most of my action fleet in pretty good shape. I had like 6 X-wings and a couple guns have broken off and snapped, but all the others are good. Should unpack them and take pictures.
>>5759541
I only ever had the X-wing that came with the Yavin base...I do have the E-wing though. Didin't know that the Defender was in that wave too.
>>5758836
I was lucky enough to find one in the wild when it was new. Ewing too (which I passed on). It was on clearance for 3-4$
>>5759728
>>5758836
Anyone else super upset with how Hasbro has gone utterly downhill the last five years?
I feel like I'll never get a Gorax 20 inch figure with other awesome EU characters.
So many oppertunities.
I feel like it will never happen.. Like the black series but an entire couple of lines dedicated to random characters from some of the best CLASSIC EU. :/
>>5760868
>Gorax 20 inch figure
uh... Hasbro only has the licence for 3.75" and 6" figures. Jakks Pacific does the 20" and 36" figures.
Get with the program man
>wanted Action Fleet Hoth
>Had to make do with Death Star instead
So we're three weeks away from SDCC and we still don't know what the Black Series exclusive is going to be. I'd really like to know if it's something I can skip (like last year's First Order Trooper that was completely identical to the retail release) or if it has something exclusive (like Salacious Crumb and Han in Carbonite from previous years).
>>5759289
draw a smiley face on the headless one's neck ball with a sharpie.
>>5761658
The Gorax is a giant creature.
>Hasbro and Lego only release Phantom Menace toy/sets once in a blue moon
>Black Series Darth Maul is over 100 bucks online
>Disney pretty much refuses to acknowledge the prequels even existed so Phantom Menace toys will pretty much never come out on a regular basis ever again
>Even if people complain about it no one will listen to them because lol TPM sucks and no one would buy toys from it
Being a prequel fan is suffering.
>>5763686
>Being a prequel fan is suffering.
It should be.
>>5763732
Oh fuck you, you're either a Star Wars fan or you're not.
I cant wait for more figuarts battle droid figures but I think what we all need is a decent magna guard..hard to think not one exists for such a incredibly cool design.
>>5763758
>You aren't allowed to be critical of something in a series or you don't like it!
This is what fanboyism is, kiddo.
>>5763732
No, you're just an grateful shit pile.
>Shadows of the Empire was considered official canon because ti was adapted from a film idea Lucas himself wanted to do in the 80s
>big media push when the novel and video game were released
>no toys of those characters since then
Tell me, did Disney retcon that out of canon too?
>>5763773
>be thankful you were beaten, at least you got some attention from someone else in the process
>>5763774
They can try. The Outrider is in A New Hope now, so fuck them.
Any one order the Mafex 3PO & R2?
>>5763776
That doesn't mean Shadows is canon. It just means the Outrider exists.
For all you know according to Disney it's piloted by a new character played by Leslie Jones for another interquel.
>>5764033
Way too expensive. I'll stick with the model kits for droids.
>>5763686
>Being a prequel fan is suffering.
it's lonely at the top
fun with smoke bombs
>>5764051
Exactly, according to the new canon rules when something from an old EU property is mentioned ONLY that specific thing that was mentioned is then considered canon.
>>5765530

I just still can´t understand it.
>>5761658
What AT-AT is that?
> Unmasked Kylo
> Exclusive to Brit Toy Show
>>5768530
He looks like Tomax
>>5768541
How come no one has brought this up?
Were the threads deleted or something?
>>5768697
Congratulations, you're the first to post it. Looks good, hope to nab one on HTS, but I know that won't happen, so I'm prepared to just get the stripped down version later on. I just hope they still include the robe in the retail release. Also kinda wish they'd used soft goods on parts of the tan robes so he could sit down, but no biggie, I'll probably have him standing most of the time anyway.
>>5768697
That thing is really mediocre
If this figure was a Target or TRU exclusive it would wind up on clearance. We all know it.
They just aren't trying. Lazy all around.
I think it's an exclusive because no retailer wanted it.
>>5767295
It's total crap too. It's the same figure that's currently warming the pegs at all the local Walmarts. Only it's unmasked and it comes with a melted vader helmet.
Pass.
>>5768697
Because it looks like ass. Looks like Obi-Wan has a little PTSD from the clone wars, and thats the damn hand painted promo. I can only imagine how shitty the mass produced figures will be.
>>5768697
This is one figure the scalpers can have. I don't want it.
I have most of the black series figs
And I hate most of them too
I would sell them if I could
>>5769183
why can't you?
>>5768530
>>5768697

>>5768863
Agreed. Very bland.
>>5768697
what scale is this?
>>5770241
>overwhelming evidence
>implying that Stormtrooper didn't end up with horse helmet, despite dozens of people claiming Bandai will totally change it, because changes in manufacturing can totally happen that fast
>implying their Darth Vader wasn't out of scale and his alternate head isn't bigger than the head he comes with, proving me right that he was disproportionate
>implying people are constantly saying the newer IM are better proportioned and that the first ones weren't
I think what oyu mean to say
>overwhelming cognitive dissonance
WAAAGH! isn't real. You aren't even orks.
Sorry, but i would never argue things not announced or shown.
It's why in that other thread I'm asking for any proof about McFarlane not using any joints, because McFarlane is known for hiding them and the fact that the announced figures are said to have ~15 on average.
I exampled a prototype of how the painted ones are likely just 3d prints, because the actual tests show joints. So until there's any actual evidence, i really can't believe something that nothing but conjecture. And no, something like this isn't conjecture, especially when it's proven to be correct. It's evidence that's proven to be a fact.
>>5770286
Fucking Bandai. They're screwing up the Godzilla line too.
>>5768863
>>5768927
>>5768931
What in the world are you guys whining about? The sculpt is spot on, the paint job is great. What did you expect an Obi-Wan figure to look like?
I'm the first to admit that the ones that land in stores will probably have subpar paint apps but if they looked like that I'd be overjoyed.
>>5770959
They've been buying too many FigureArts
>>5771099
We should start saying that to annoy people.
>>5763686
I know how you feel man, at least you like Episode I, which is at least infamous for being generally hated and is at the very least recognizable. REAL suffering is always having your favorite character overshadowed eternally by Boba Fett
>pic related took way more time and money to get than it should have
You think being a prequel fan is bad, just consider Star Tours fans.
Now that C-3PO pilots the Starspeeder 1000, there's no point in licensing anything from the ride.
>>5771833
>mfw I have a Bossk centered collection
Feels good man. I even have the Sideshow 1:1 scale bust. That was an expense I'll never do again.
>>5771847
Rex is actually in Rebels so it's possible that they'll make another small figure if him at least.
>>5771958
Really? Well, we can hope!
Are my Vaders cool?
>>5771861
>no Mafex or SHF ever
What feels good about THAT?
>>5773293
Sure.
>>5773354
> Excited for Mafex Ray
It looks boss as hell, I don't blame you.
>>5773354
Is it cause this is the only fucking option we have so far? Seriously, Figuarts needs to get to fuckin work, and BS needs to put out a Resistance outfit version before I kill myself.
>>5773399
Is there really a difference between Figuarts vs Mafex?
They both seem really similar quality -wise to me, the only difference being accessories or something.
>>5773419
I've been through this a thousand times, but yeah there it. Mafex quality hasn't improved much from when they began, they still have too many loose joints, joints that pop apart, and sometimes just breakage. They also haven't proven themselves capable of realistic faces in any capacity, but with the release so far away, I'm really hoping they get it together.
>>5773426
They also take for fucking ever to release anything. Rey should have been released at the latest by now, not a year after the movie.
Though at this point, Tamashii isn't too far behind. Seriously, how long has Han & the droids been in the prototype stage?
>>5771833
i admire your passion! will you be enjoying the figuarts jango fett too?
>>5773535
Agreed. That's not to mention Mafex's delays, which affect at least 70% of their releases.
I believe Figuarts 3PO and R2 were first shown off around 10-11 months ago, and Han was shown as far back as October 2014. Ridiculous that we keep getting shit like prequel figures and 3 FO troopers that clog the schedule
>>5773551
I don't mind the PT figures, I can't wait for ROTS figures to go up for preorder, but their schedule so far has barely included any OT figures recently besides ANH Luke which will be released soon.
And now that you mention delays, Rey probably won't be released until this time next year. By then Rey's new outfit would have been revealed and all anyone will care about will be Ep VIII. Her Resistance outfit looks better anyway.
>>5770286
You're so full of shit. You're not objectively looking at anything. You decided to shit on Figuarts and then looked for info to support your argument after the fact. That's why the examples you use are always so flimsy like using the first two figures they ever made as proof that the line sucks. It's called confirmation bias. It's why you'll never ever say anything good about anything bandai or anything bad about a Hasbro figure (it's also why you constantly have to samefag to make it appear as if you have any support whatsoever when you clearly do not). You're just as big a whore as the people who claim that bandai can do no wrong, I just can't tell if you're doing it on purpose or if it's a product of your crippling autism.
>>5773612
>notice right away something has proportion problems
>because am human and like most species, innately dislike sick looking of own species, like those with deformities
>can notice deformities in thumbnails
>i must only hate it because only trolls won't over look poor sculpts cause FIGUARTS!!!
sure thing
Nevermind that i do the same shit for practically every other line, but since you're a weeaboo, you won't notice me in other threads or care about what's being discussed unless it's weeaboo stuff.
>your crippling autism.
>liking good sculpts and expecting better from actually collector toys is autism.
Ok, sure, but at least it's better than your cognitive dissonance, delussions, and holding a grudge against someone on the internet because WAH THEY DONT LIKE THE SAME THINGS AS ME.
Stay bitter.
>>5773544
Thanks a lot, and I'm not sure man, I already made a big purchase recently with this monstrosity and I'm trying to not spend much more for a while. Eventually I may get to it though
Anyone know a good place to get the new clonetrooper model kit?
>>5776153
https://www.amazon.com/Japan-Action-Figures-Trooper-plastic/dp/B01DTX1MGA/
>>5774039
SHF definitely has some misses... But all the recent releases look stellar to me. Surely your issues are with the earlier garbage.
>>5771833
I need better lighting, but we're best friends now.
Can somebody tell me if the Bandai model kit Scout Trooper can hold the long rifle from the Stormtrooper model kit and maybe post pics?
>>5776708
The boxes in back really ruin this for me. With out them it would be great!
>>5763686
>Black Series Darth Maul

How about you spend less than $50 and get a significantly better figure RIGHT NOW?
>>5774039
>delussions
It's delusionment all over again with you.
Stay being a massive brandwhore, subjectranny.
Is anyone voting for any new Black Series characters?
>>5778018
I'm going HK-47. If we keep getting KOTOR/EU characters in there, maybe Hasbro will slowly get the hint. And if they don't (they won't), at least we'll have a couple KOTOR/EU characters!
>>5778018
How and where can you vote?
>>5778205
I may join you. Will they accept non-canon characters? Pic related gets my vote otherwise.
>>5777977
Not that guy, how long are figuarts available or how long does it take for them to go out of production?
>>5778210
http://www.starwars.com/news/vote-for-the-next-black-series-figure
You can name any character you want on multiple fan sites. Looks like you can vote a dozen times by voting on each site individually. Seems extremely complicated, I wonder which figure will win.
Should we attempt to establish a consensus on a few characters or at least some sensible guidelines? For instance, nothing that is likely to be done as an SHF or any character with a face.
I myself am partial to EU characters such as HK-47, Darth Nihilus, and Thrawn as well as ARC Trooper Fives/Echo and Captain Rex (Phase II).
>>5778394
Maul is already out of production and sold out in most places, HLJ seem to have found some additional stock in the warehouse.
Basically, short of the occasional reissue, they're out of production as soon as they're released.
>>5769412
Where the fuck is my ANH era Vader damn it....
>>5778210
The last one got us Revan, so I don't think they mind if it's Legends
I voted for Asajj Ventress (Dark Disciple version) because my heart felt that that's what I want the most, I'd be happy with the TV version but
>>5778018
Voted for Plo
Oh wow, Mafex 3PO has a cool action feature where it falls apart!

is the bandai kit kylo ren any good?
>>5776708
Respect.
by the way, where did you get that base for POTF2 boba?
>>5774381
Almost bought that at the Lego store last month, but my debit card was declined. Identity theft had just happened and Lego store sales are red flags. I got it taken care of now though.
>>5779234
He should come with a net so Chewie can carry him around.
>>5780635
From a couple of my episode 3 figures if I'm remembering correctly. I'm not sure which ones though.
>>5780183
It's pretty good, the rubber skirt makes it hard to pose, but everything else about it is great
>>5778394
I voted for Jar Jar.
>>5781020
GO AHEAD... THROW YOUR VOTE AWAY
>>5760868
hasbro has gone to shit
figures seem to be sometimes okay, but I've seen a lot that have shitty details
even the black series lightsabers are bad, I've read plenty about kylo sabers having shit LEDs or fucked up crossguards
>>5778394
>http://www.starwars.com/news/vote-for-the-next-black-series-figure
Darth Talon will still get passed over, FFS.
>>5780648
I suspect that may be the idea, but they haven't toleranced the joint pegs very well...
>>5781962
She seems to mentioned often on various polling sites. Those imbeciles however are also wanting General Grievous and TFA Luke, as if those weren't already likely to be released.
My vote goes out for either Darth Talon, Captain Rex, or Hera Syndulla. It also looks like Jaina has good chance of winning.
>>5765530
What Tie Crawler is this?
>>5781979
Production is so slow with black series and distribution is so bad, I think people are impatient for core characters. I'd settle for a Gammorean Guard or a Royal Guard. Those are staple characters that should have been released alongside Jabba or the Emperor. But you are right. If the majority of collectors were strategic they would pick more EU characters that will never come naturally. They got the message with Revan last time though...
>>5758836
oh shit I should have scrolled more, could have posted the melted darth vader helmet in this thread...
>>5781979
I expect Hera will get a figure - we've got Kanan, Ahsoka, and Sabine on the way, so I think they'll flesh out the Rebels line. Ditto Captain Rex since he'd require minimum reworking.
Darth Talon is never gonna get made otherwise. I have no affinity for the character but that's a good use of your vote - put your votes into that one!
Where does everyone go to get their figures? What's the cheapest place?
>>5782795
amiami for Japanese figures. Amazon for western I guess.
>>5782795
Amiami, HLJ, CDJ, Mandarake, Nippon-Yasan, Mykombini, biginjapan and Anime-Export for foreign.
Dorkside, BigBadToyStore, Entertainment Earth, and Amazon for domestic.
>all these people unironically voting for Jar Jar
TFA Luke is stupid too, Of course we're gonna get him
Hmm I was going to vote for HK-47 but I'm wondering if I should go for Bastila Shan instead? Jolee Bindo won't make it.
Nah, I think I'll go for HK-47, the 1:18 Bastila is still affordable but the HK is a pain.
Ordered Black Series OT Han, do you guys have any thoughts on him?
I'm excited for the pictures I can take now of him alongside Chewie and Greedo.
>>5759289
is there any actual rarity to these?
SHF Luke looks to be coming along nicely, that normal expression looks nicer than the promo shot (imho), though that smiling face is just horrid..
What expression is that supposed to be based on?
http://tamashii.jp/akiba_sr/?p=2695
>>5787061
This maybe? I don't know, he never smiled like that in the film, normally he would show his teeth.
>>5787069
>>5787061
oh geez, the smile is horrid.
The normal face looks like a cartoon hamil, but this looks like his evil step cousin stunt double.
>>5787069
hmm good point. Pretty odd choice for the figure.
Maybe they should have done a shouting expression, for when Obi-Wan died or something.
>>5787127
pretty sure this face will be meme worthy down the road.. like Bruce Lee's shouting expression.
Dear Hot Toys.... Nope.
What happened? Couldn't charge $300 for just BB8, so you decided to downsize Mary Sue to reduce the costs for the 2pack?
>>5787805
So
You now have a small young female to play with
what's the problem?
>>5787812
Whats the problem? I wonder.
errrmm Guys i just bought 3 bandai clone troopers and i plan to do legion markings on them any tips
has anyone customed their clone trooper figures before
>>5787835

>>5787816
Is there a large outcry from fans? Beat down Hottoy's doors, demand that they fix this
for a price.
>>5787816
Huh, weird. How does that happen? Hot Toys is generally pretty on the ball about this stuff, aren't they?

I was about to ask if someone else received it falling apart. Mine can't move the hand without disarming the arm
>>5765530
what mini stormtroopers are those?
>>5788733
They might be from the old Star Wars Miniatures game from Wizards of the Coast.
Today I was browsing toys at my local chain video store, and I saw black series skywalker and kylo ren. The thing is, they weren't in the standard boxes, but in blister packs with a simple cardboard background. Does this thing exist? It didn't look like a bootleg
>>5789013
Shit I'm retarded. Still, do you think it's worth the 15 bucks I think it was at the store?
>>5789016
15 is a little high, it's 10 on ebay with free shipping too.
So we're getting a Hot Toys Resistance Rey before we're getting a Black Series. Hasbro can fuck a donkey.

I've never seen anything as loose as that except old as fuck toys i played with a longass time.
Not even Toy Biz's Showdown figures are that loose.
>>5792540
Mafex C3PO & R2 set, costs 90 fuckin dollars. Stupid company still hasn't gotten their crap together.
>>5792491
The storm trooper makes the whole set worth it. (Currently working with lighting that's why it's so bad.
>>5792491
What new set is this?
>>5792491
Got mine today as well, pretty sweet set for only 50 bux.
>>5791786
Well they've announced it first... doesn't mean it'll be out before Hasbro can release one.
>>5793088
It's set for 3rd quarter this year, and Hasbro's line-up is pretty well mapped out from Fall to the end of the year, no Resistance Rey in sight. I'll eat my own dick if we get a BS Resistance Rey before the Hot Toys.
>>5771833
i just got the black series jango, and I've gotta admit, it's pretty damn nice. he feels very sturdy, well built, the sculpting is good and face looks decent for hasbro, very easy to pose, all in all, it's a good fig. i just might try to find Boba and kylo. only other black series I have is rey with the lightsaber and BB-8

So was Vader the exception to Mafex's crappiness? Is the Stormtrooper any good? I was going to get Fett, but... eh.
>>5793546
Vader's pretty great.
>>5793551
Yeah, I have him already and love it. Which is why I'm so confused with the rest of the Mafex releases and am wondering about Fett.
Where can I get Star Wars sideshow collectible figures for cheap?

>>5771833
as someone who played the trash out of Star Wars Bounty Hunter in his youth, I fucking love Jango and have a similar display set up. Always loved him. Got the black series for $20 last month after weeks of seeing it at $30+
>>5793396
Can't wait, Jyn a qt
JUST
>>5793958
Yeah, Black Series. They said they're aware that it's fuckin balls and have claimed they're gonna fix it, but I don't believe them.
>>5793957
Oink, oink little piggy!
>>5793957
Why not hoth leia. Why not endor leia. Any other, better, costume that doesn't require softgoods they can't do properly? Hell, why not just do it like kylo and give her regular plastic arms since sleeves always turn out like shit? This is gonna shelfwarm just like the first one, and we'll never get the other costumes.
>>5793396
At least jen looks ok, I guess. Have we ever gotten an answer for why no double elbows? It's like my number one problem with the line, and it's gonna be a conscious choice.
>>5793957
Amazing sculpt, horrible paint apps. As per usual.
>>5793992
The sculpt is not amazing, it's actually quite bad compared to other stuff.
>>5793995
What "other stuff"?
>>5794009
The Jango sculpt was incredible, old Han was as well, Rey was pretty great. They're shitty ass paint fucks them, I agree, but that Leia sculpt is just bad.
>>5793992
dude, that sculpt doesn't look amazing and that's hand painted too.
>>5793995
I'm beginning to think western artists don't actually study actual humans anymore. They just study those (male) caricatures that exaggerate bone and muscle structure with 0 fat and softness. And when they want to add fat they just make the muscles bigger.
That legitimately looks like a dude with weird buns. I mean Carrie Fisher is a butterface but she's not a man.
>>5794047
I didn't think she was necessarily a butterface...
>>5794050
Holy shit, she's like a much more attractive version of my old asian GF in this pic. It's really weird.
>>5794047
>I'm beginning to think western artists don't actually study actual humans anymore
You're 100% correct. Art schools are no longer about developing fine art skills. Ever since post modernism it's become nothing more than a den of rich kids showing off how "Beautiful and unique" their "brilliant artistic souls" are.
And just as happened last year with TFA figures like Rey and Finn, I can't get excited about this figure because I haven't seen the film and the design is quite boring. And from what we have seen, I can't say I like her stupid, cringey, Katniss like attitude.
>>5794062
>That filename
Just reading that triggered my cringe reaction anon. Jesus christ I've never heard a line delivered worse in all of acting than that one line.
At least the unmasked Kylo is looking great. Quite excited for this honestly. And correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like a different material being used for the soft goods instead of that old Nike shorts looking shit from the previous ones.
>>5794068
Eh, maybe not.
>>5794081
3PO rumored to be Amazon exclusive. Still pissed that they don't seem to be including swap out leg and arm parts as to encompass all this looks.
>>5793963
They addressed the deco, aka the paint, but not the god awful sculpt. That shit is final for production, guaranteed.
>>5794067
So you've seen what like three movies ever then?
>>5794220
If they can get it semi-close to how it was looking a few months back, I'd be fine. It wouldn't look like Carrie Fisher, but at least it wouldn't look like a beaten pig
>Love Jawas
>Trying to decide if I $200 love them
>>5794248
>200 for both and they aren't even hot toys
ISHIHG
Has anyone customized a 1 12th scale clone trooper like this before
>>5794253
What's so bad about Sideshow figures anyway?
>>5794258
Vastly over priced. And compared to Hot Toys, the gap in quality between the on-show prototypes and the production pieces is bigger.
The X-Wing Luke's sculpt looks terrible in comparison to the Hot Toys ANH Luke. And its more expensive with less accessories.
They failed at getting the colours right on the Hoth Luke as well.
Aliens and Clones are pretty good though.
>>5794280
Are the statues any good?
>>5787127
It reminds me of the kostanza >implying face
>>5771847
Black Series when?
The fact that there is absolutely no attempt at a likeness just pisses me off. Why the fuck can't these people get it together?
>>5794483
>brown eyes
Doesn't she have blue in the movie?
Someone finally took a picture of the Revan on display.
Guess they're serious about the flat paint on his armor and that red thing. Guess I'll have to get two so I can customize one.
>>5794940
it is the BLACKED series afterall..
>>5795008
What the fuck did they do to the hood?
>>5787816
Well he's a big guy...
>>5795232
Looks like latex. Getting string bdsm dungeon vibes from him
>>5795308
He looks like a Michael Jackson backup dancer circa 1995.
>>5795317
Nah, it's straight up glossy. Whats next, sparkles?
Have they announced Black Series Snowtroopers yet? They're basically the only things I want in this line now.
>>5795440
Yep, last big toy show I think. Don't have shots handy but they're around.
>>5795008
>>5795232
Even our ol' buddy here taking the pic doesn't look too positive about it.
>>5795534
Nice. I'm only in this line for OG droids, bounty hunters, and troopers, so all these face characters and prequel/sequel shit has me tuning out on the news and updates.
>>5795610
Yeah, there you go. Along with Revan looking how he should look. Since this is the earlier prototype I'm hoping his paint will look like this and that the glossy version was just a screw-up by the same dope that messed up the Leia face.
>>5795686
Man, Snowtrooper looks great. I don't army build, so two will suffice for me. Wonder if they'll release a deluxe set with the cannon that they use. It would be a no-brainer, and it would easily tempt me into making a 3 man squadron.
>>5787816
What the actual fuck
>>5795963
Love me some troopers. Think this means we're getting an AT-AT?
>>5795966
I think an AT-ST isn't out of the question.
But then, I thought we should have had a landspeeder by now so what do I know
>>5794280
>>5794289
Sideshow 1/6 scale figures are actually just about even with Hot Toys in terms of quality, and I actually prefer their Luke Face and much prefer Han over HT. There was definitely a time when they were far inferior, but they've made tremendous progress in quality.
Statues by sideshow are typically fantastic.
>>5795963
damn that looks pretty nice
>>5795966
We are getting an AT-AT, just not a 6 inch scale one.
>>5795440
From Toy Fair 2016
I'm trying to sell some of my old Star Wars junk but I have no idea what to even charge for all of this since, most of it is junk. What do you guys think?
>>5796298
None of it is 70's/80's Kenner.. So im guessing you could sell that lot on eBay for about 25 dollars or less.
>>5796298
Pretty much worthless. You're better off either donating them to a salvation army or giving them away to another collector for the cost of shipping.
>>5796160
What are the odds that he'll actually be able to hold that gun properly?
>>5796298
I'll give you 5 bucks for that podracer though. And 2 more bucks for the droideka's.
>>5796298
i'd head over to the BST thread to get an accurate read, but it looks to me like this is worth nothing substantial, maybe like $20 for the lot
>>5796309
His arms arent double jointed so I'd say the odds are none, none odds.
>>5796309
>>5796314
It's good enough
>>5796319
He said "properly" hold the rifle though. His ability to hold it at all was not in question.
>>5796322
Well that's how they held their blasters in the film.
>>5796332
They are two completely different guns, and I think he meant while firing.
>>5796334
So what's the point of arguing whether or not he can aim a gun that he never used in the film? It's clearly not possible to shoulder a rifle like that in the outfit irl anyway.
>>5795605
Thanks for the photos Dj Khaled.
>>5796567
I assume it's to save money as they have to make brand new sculpts for nearly every figure and can't reuse the same 3 bodies like they do with Marvel Legends.
And double-hinged elbows have never been a normality with BS, I don't know why people continue to get upset about it. 95% of BS figures have single-jointed elbows, just gonna have to deal.
>>5796572
>I don't know why people continue to get upset about it
Because it lessens the enjoyability of characters whose sole function in an entire heptalogy of films and innumerable media adaptations is to shoot guns. You can disagree with that, but if you don't understand that, you've got mental problems.
>>5796591
I guess so. In my experience, at long as the figure can achieve a 90 degree bend, it's good enough. Cases like the FO Stormtroopers piss me off, but the Tie Pilot had an effective range of motion
>>5778210
If they're bringing Phase 3 Darktroopers back for Rebels, they'll probably at least be getting a figure somewhere...
Should I get the SHF or Black Series Kylo Ren?
..can you believe in this day and age not single decent version of a magna guard exists.....I dont even think a statue of them exists, only a poorly done tiny figure. Stormtrooper repaints galore are in higher demand it looks like though
>>5796958
>le get the ShF and put the softgoods from the BS meme response XD
>>5796976
But there is a decent version.
>>5797209
I'm.NOT. IMPRESSED. give me better. I'm talking 6 inches at least im talking the kind of sculpt you would die for and I'M TALKING DECENT ARTICULATION..do you know what I'm talking chief?
>>5797209
what I can't figure out is why someone who has ever seen cloth before would use a gloss finish on obi-wan's tunic
>>5796976
>>5797223
It may not be 6 inches, but don't knock it when you obviously don't own it.
The Vintage Collection Magna Guard has some really nice sculpted detailing and paint. And it's one of the best articulated Star Wars figures, ever.
http://www.itsalltrue.net/?p=9259
>>5797246
>http://www.itsalltrue.net/?p=9259
his stick ends look like dildos..thats not accurate to the source material. He is probably going to be quite hard to get a hand of anyway, I am just going to hope on a figuarts instead.
I appreciate you giving your case though.
>>5797251
They're just effects parts, and removable.
I'd personally love a figuarts version, but I don't think it's very likely. At least not for a very long time. Grievous hasn't even been officially announced, and there are way more important characters than Magna Guards to do first.
>>5797338
well they did do battle droids, there is super battle droids that have been shown and as you know Grevous. I think they are likely due to no high end figure manufacturer having taken a jab at the magna guard and I think that alone is the perfect reason! before figuarts the battle droid had ...nothing special and now ...it has a figure to be proud of! its perfect figure everyone loves that battle droid!!! I think they should tackle these kind of characters that really need that high end figure.
>>5793957
>>5797373
you could always make a custom =]
>>5782036
Looks like it's from Star Wars Miniatures, same as the figs.

I never come into this sub but I noticed you guys were talking about SW toys and saw the Tie Defender, I sold mine on eBay years ago to a collector in Hong Kong, I picked mine up at a thrift store for roughly 12 bucks, I just bought it as I liked the Tie/D , held onto it for years and decided to sell it, got roughly a lil over 300ish in box and shipped it to Hong Kong, never really realized how rare it was, kinda funny though to see others talk about it.

You are aware a sub forum is a term that has been around a lot longer than Reddit. Im not sure if you were born after Reddit, but you should have some better insight into how the internet works. ;-)

Voting time, elect our queen. A bunch of faggots have already started voting for Jaina Solo
http://www.starwars.com/news/vote-now-for-the-next-black-series-figure
>>5798685
I need Mara
>>5798693
No chance, she's currently in last place somehow.
>>5798695
Seriously... How is Dengar beating her...
>>5798685
who is Jaina Solo? Han's mom?
>>5798685
I don't even like Star Wars and I want a Darth Talon figure.
>>5798685
>darth talon
Not gonna lie, until I googled her just now I thought she was a straight up OC porn character. I voted jaina.
>>5798705
I assume to try and get one step closer to completing the bounty hunters.
>>5798707
The Rey of EU

Fuck that Gary stu, rather have dengar than him.
>>5764033
>>5792471
Anyone who has this, can 3PO do a sitting pose?
i cant wait for more figuarts to be released so i dont have to put up with shitty black series
I think I may have found Hasbro's shitty reference for Leia.
>>5798685
With the exception of Finn and Han & Old Han, the humans always looks terrible.
I want Rex.
>>5798868
The fuck are you even talking about, it was confirmed to be this version of Princess Leia that they used for photo ref.
>>5798899
Nice 3 day old joke man, laughing so hard right now.
who the fuck cares about leia. she already got a sexy naked barbie, go that you lonel;y virgins with no real taste in waifus
>>5798904
>3 day old joke
That's oddly specific
But expectedly assblasted from the one and only subjectanon.
>>5798908
>3 day old joke

?
I don't get the reference
>>5799072
>implying that's subjectanon
good joke, greg
How the FUCK did HK-47 not beat Starkiller, Dengar or Jaina
>>5799141
I dunno man, I voted for him on every site.
To all of you voting for Rex, you're essentially throwing away your vote.
>>5799126
>implying anyone but subjectautismo defends garbage Hasbro Star Wars sculpts
Subjectanon, why the deflection? You're usually so open about your autistic rants and ravings, why are you trying to disguise yourself?
Stop talking about subjectranny, no one cares about subjectranny.
>>5799269
why the fuck did you even show up, Jin?
This thread is already worse enough with Greg and SA in it, but now you want in? Fuck.
The only way this thread can get any worse is if Hitler himself shows up.

So is liking EU the same as liking Beast Wars in the TF Fandom? Dear God most forums hate the idea of any EU in their Fan Poll. MUH OHTEE and everything.
>>5799334
It depends on the series.
The EU in general is basically what all SW fanboys like.
Some books or comics, and even authors, are looked down upon. Not sure if that's what you meant with BW and TF though.
Fuuuck me man, I want that stupid table so bad. It lights the fuck up and has sound recordings in it!

>Starkiller is in the lead
He's got more costumes that Amidala, so it's hard to imagine which one Hasbro would be made. And the two best costumes, the Stalker and the Hoth Stalker are not much different that Kylo Ren or Darth Raven.
I'm still rooting for Darth Talon to win.
>>5758836
who else finna army build?
>>5799666
Pretty clear the costume they'll do is the one in the image. Also no head sculpt to have to do with that one.
Never really paid much attention to the realization figures but Darth Maul and IG-88 look pretty tempting
>>5799666
Of course you are, Satan
>>5799769
Oh shit
And I thought I was done with the line
>>5793546
Stormtrooper is pretty good if you don't mind the shoulder pads connected to the torso armor. I love mine.

>>5799563
such a based set senpai
>>5800676
I bet this'll suck. I want to be happy, but this probably be a great big wet fart by the time the figures are revealed.
Unless it's got the Tonnika twins...

Sure doesn't sound like it. Sounds like you want to whine about something that hasn't even been announced yet. Pretty lame.
