Many such cases.

What's the best Buzz out there that isn't a rape price like the Medicom one?
We've had some decent action figures like the Pixar collection or the Mirrorverse, but I don't think we've gotten a perfect 6" Buzz in his classic design yet. The closest is maybe the model kit or the revoltech.
The current 12 inch disney store Buzz isn't as good as the signature collection but is otherwise acceptable.

A buzz light year toy without a working “laser” or sound effects just seems pointless. The $30 Disney one is pretty good and nearly identical to the one I had 20 years ago. Though, for the life of me I can’t remember which exact one it was.
>>
>>10981913
I'm kind of that way too, but specifically Buzz's utility belt from TS2. Pretty much no modern figures incorporate it and it kind of makes me angry. Even more than the fact that almost none of the LGMs/Pizza Planet Aliens are rubber squeaky toys

so I miraculously managed to pre-order one of these almost 13 hours after pre-orders went live

How does toy feel about sofubi

>>10986768
Also worth noting the actual process of making them is EXTREMELY technical, time consuming, expensive and has to be done by hand. It involves some black magic with making a mold by electroplating a master sculpt, various dips in hot chemical baths (with the chemical formula being a closely-guarded secret) and then meticulously painting everything with special paint. It's not like they're just making a silicone mold and pouring resin (which itself is an expensive process)- sofubi production is an art form.

>>
>>10985755
I like them for what they are, especially the indie ones, but some of them can get really prohibitively expensive.

Moreover the highly commercialized ones (KAWS, those ugly funko pop type ones with their arms tucked into their hoodies or whatever) are just ugly to look at. They're not interesting, they're just plain hipster garbage that people flock to because they're limited or are collabing with some hypebeast nonsense.
>>
Sofubi has become a good chunk of my collection over the last 4-6 years. I appreciated from afar for the longest time, but the prices and availability are huge barriers to entry. I finally decided to just buy one I really liked and that led to following a bunch of the people and businesses that produce this stuff. Have a quick pic of one of my sofubis.

Okay it's a long story but I'll try to make it short:
>Namco made Pac-Man in Japan
>Midway published Pac-Man in the US
>Small company GCC makes money selling rom hack kits of existing arcade games, has one for Pac-Man in development called Crazy Otto
>GCC gets sued by Atari over one of their hacks, leading to a new law being made that they can only sell these hacks if they get permission from the original game's owners
>GCC decide to negotiate with Midway and Namco over getting Crazy Otto released, and it becomes Ms. Pac-Man
>The agreement is that Midway owns the game while GCC would be paid royalties
>A little bit later Namco buys the copyright from Midway
>Namco makes a bunch of rereleases of the game and features the character in new games for decades, not knowing about the royalties
>GCC finds out and sues Namco in 2006
>Namco loses money and now have to pay royalties to rerelease the game and use the character
>Bandai Namco attempts to sidestep Ms. during the 2010s, only occassionally rereleasing her game
>Bandai Namco attempts to negotiate with GCC about buying out the royalty rights from them in 2019
>Fucking AtGames (some shady company infamous for shitty plug-n-plays) offers a larger price and buys the royalty rights

Yeah, like side eyes, it's more expressive, and natural looking.
Does it work all the time? No, and might not work if you want to do straight up and down poses, hence people not liking it and preferring the most generic option.

And I'd like to say that C-cup hands are the worst. ugly as fuck and does nothing right. Can't believe some companies were still using them into the 00s

If anyone has trouble with English it's you. I'm >>10996903 and I never said it often flakes. If anything I was supporting your point. I cited a specific case that's caused by shitty paint and NOT aging. >>10996908 summarizes my point well: vac-metal doesn't inherently have a short shelf-life, it's shitty materials and poor craftsmanship that causes vac-metal to flake in the box.

Also you clearly didn't look at the image because you can see the green flaking off the helmet in the top right corner. Here's a better pic to show my point. The parts painted green and red have bad flaking, but the silver parts on the shoulders are still intact.
