newfag to collecting toys here. what are some brands /toy/ approves? i'v been collecting for 6yrs. but when i found out about this place it seems /toy/ hates PAK. i mostly have final fantasy characters figures. i see /toy/ like figmas which i bought i few and i love but i didnt know they were so small. what is your opinion on bishoujo statues? i want to buy a few. the designs look nice and all but are they durable? like the paint wont fade away or the statue would crack over time would it?
1. Statues are not toys

funko is a staple for /toy/

Bishoujo statues are PVC so they shouldn't crack but it might degrade if it's a really really bad manufacturer, most are good though. Paint on everything will fade eventually but they're no worse than toys, probably better actually.
Statues are better discussed in /a/'s buyfag threads since statues aren't allowed on /toy/ by these faggots.

/a/'s full of retards so they don't link their own guide but tell people to read it anyway

Hasbro is approved

Mafex is the best toyline of all time. You should ignore anybody who brings up "QC issues" and "bad likeness", those are just trolls. Only buy Mafex for your favorite characters, never cheap japanese stuff like SH Figurats or Revoltech.

>wanting statueshit threads to further ruin an already shitty /toy/ board with a bunch of newfag anons knocking off actual toy threads with threads like:
>"HEY GUYS WHERE I GET THIS SEMI-LEWD FLAVOR OF THE MONTH ANIME STATUE ?? IS EBAY GOOD? THEY HAVE IT FOR $20 FROM A CHINA SELLER EVEN THOUGH THE ACTUAL THING COSTS $100!"

Except we get those kinds of threads about figmas all the time anyway. The fact that you throw this out there as a reason why statues are banned shows you don't even know why they're banned in the first place.

Mafex is the worst toyline of all time. You should ignore anybody who says anything positive about Mafex, those are just trolls. Only buy SH Figuarts or Revoltech of your favorite characters, never cheap shit like Memefex.
