>>>11672801 in like 2012-2016, when the US market was collapsing
ooof, what is this delusion?
That era was a huge rebound for the US toy market, with 1:12 becoming popular again and other popular toylines starting. Black series. Tons of video game lines. DC Direct, NECA, Diamond, etc making their toys super articulated. indie toy market was rising up hugely because of kickstarter.
The collector market was expanding too, so now there were TMNT collector lines. Marvel and DC got niche collector lines by NECA, Mezco, etc. Vintage toylines were making a come back with revamped new lines like Battle Beasts, Power Lords, etc.
>well I was buying more japanese stuff so it was collapseing to me!
Jeebus, there seems to be a common trait with the subjectanon haters and its how self centered they are.

You're can't notice anything beyond your own ass, just like the no-toys in this thread who only came to make their hate for me everyone else's problem.

>>11672787
Speaking as someone who reads a lot, i think mispelling words on a $150 toy counts. They butchered a righteous regal character with their engrish. a fucking mockery.

Speaking of butchering, i think this counts too. Fucking supposed to be a god-like character, who has the resources of the entire galaxy to get him gold inlayed armor, instead mocked with all this brown plastic so he can blend in with the wooden wicker basket in the background.
The $150 toy is completely fucking ruined.

wat? is this just schizo theories or is there an actual screenshot for proof?

As far as i can tell, traffic has slowed down thanks to root certification expiring on older browsers and captcha spinning forever. Lots of shit happened in 2025 that made posting harder to do, not just 4chan getting hacked, so it's made people less likely to continue posting or coming back.

By some you mean you. You said that. Stop pretending there's a large amount of people impressed by slop. What you are spamming is not new or novel or important, what you are spamming is essentially lazy fan art. It's no different then the stuff people can make in photoshop or MSpaint, except with those programs you actually need *some* talent to actually create something. If people were posting bad photoshops and saying they're "concepts" people would be telling them to gtfo as well because this isn't a "concept" thread, it's a toy thread.

What you're posting is something any idiot can create and only an idiot would be impressed by. And as clearly demonstrated, the majority of the thread is not impressed by or even enjoys seeing your lazy slop. If you want to post it, go create your own thread or go to one of the many boards you claim enjoy that trash and post it there.

That's why I jumped so hard on buying the new Castle Greyskull. I know it's not an actual Target exclusive but it took a weird ass amount of time to show up and I just expect Amazon to randomly take down the page for no reason.

I want Sketchbook figures so much. When I got into MotU in 2p24 I spent hours reading Battle Rams blog and staring at all that concept art.

>>11672399
I wish the sketchbook figures were easy for you to acquire. If you are in Canada, I wonder how easy or worth a trip to a nearest Target in the states would be. They are usually at most Targets and stay available for a couple months until clearanced out. Some Targets are slow to get them though, so would be worth going to multiple, under such a hypothetical situation.

Their parents aren't going to let them waste 80 bucks on that. They're going to stick them in front of a tablet which will provide more value to the parent as it will entertain the kid for far longer.

So what's the fucking point of the whole unbumpable old threads thing when it clearly doesn't stop spam and flooding?

I was actually completely on board with this until I actually heard the sounds that come out of this thing. I understand they are trying to future proof the brick so it uses a synthesizer instead of sound bites. But... outside of playing midi jingles it doesn't seem very good for replicating familiar sounds.

Finally bought the playmates 5 pack megazord. It's alright for an actual babby's toy. Second biggest megazord I own. Fuck them for making it have additional paint apps and stickers over that individual release though. I waited a long time before buying the original release and they shortly announced the improved 5 pack version. I had time to return them, but I'm sure many others couldn't

>Thats actually pretty damn smart
Thanks, but I think the problem was that while it stood well, it wouldn't pose well. What I wish existed was a slider piece, like a beam except it's hollow all the way down except maybe a pin at one end, such that a shorter version of the piston axle with its flat head could slide through it. It'd be low-profile and and add resistance to joints that only need a single degree of freedom.
>Were you ever able to straighten out his back?
I think not. It was only a single balljoint in there, and even if he was always a technically slumped forward it still meant I could rotate the torso. I'm having a hard time imagining if parallel balljoint connections would lose a degree of freedom or not, but that's what I'd try if I were to redo it, and if rotation were lost then a pin with sufficient friction could be used at the hips maybe; 1.5 pin with an axle end plugged into a 2-deep hole would probably be firm for posing with a heavier torso.

The main problem with this guy was mostly in the fatass shield-sword in his right hand; those hoses looping through the back were structural, and kept the flimsy shoulder joints up. Piraka thighs as forearms didn't help.

>are the buzzmod cloth goods decent quality?
Yes

>looking at the faces, their tanjiro looks like a chubby boy but the cloak might be worth it
The cloth cloak is good but like this anon said >>11672756 Buzzmod tends to struggle with the likenesses at times. Personally, I'd go for the SHF overall while supplementing missing characters with Buzzmod releases like Tengen and Daki (still salty they skimped on Gyuutaro tho).

A major problem with Buzzmod now is if you're getting into the line this late and want to get everyone, you're beholden to aftermarket prices on a lot of figures. And that's on top of them already costing more than all the other options.

>>11672350

This hobby is already perfect for an introvert like me. What are YOU doing interacting with others just for a toy?

>>11670521
There are some pieces of merchandise that are so rare they are not found via traditional avenues, e.g. ebay. You have to go and ask around on social media or forums for the item you want to buy and wait until someone shows up who is willing to take up your offer. Right now I'm looking for a dvd and book that is unlikely to show up on ebay anytime soon so I have to interact with people in the fandom I am a member of to buy what I want.

What an absolute clusterfuck of a head design. I normally love KOF's style of aggressively robotic head on an incredibly feminine body, but this one is just didn't survive the translation to 3d. Not that I care either way, I was never going to get her because of the scale, the seamless body and the light up eye. If it were up to me I'd say just let snail shell go back to making KOF's designs into figures. Anime head or not, they still did a better job and were smart enough to pick one of his designs that would translate into a coherent 3d object.

It's Bambu Lab H2D. Matte PLA can hide a lot of imperfections. Resin is still the king when it comes for detail.

I have plenty of digital models I want to make into a reality.

I actually just got this guy in the mail a few days ago, pricy but he's such a great looking dude to have sitting around. Like a funny bonus character chilling in the background to any other set of other figures.

>>11670475
As a guy who clearly collects higher tier stuff as well as that Neytiri, what do you think of the Mcfarlane Avatar figs? I am pretty picky with the stuff I get I usually only get the sort of higher Chinese imports, figuarts, figma etc. sometimes I get the especially good Marvel Legends (Spiral for instance), but these Avatar figs really catch my eye, I'm just hesitant because I think most Mcfarlanes look terrible, so I have no experience with their quality level. How would you rate them?

Mam, they do look pretty. I gambled on Varang the other day when she briefly reappeared on Amazon, but I'm not convinced it'll actually get fulfilled with the delivery estimate being the end of January, I suspect it was some fake stock error. Wonder if they'll do any more figures.

>I did buy some Mythic Legion accessory packs
tragic. their weapons can break from falling a few inches onto carpet, but i guess they're pretty much the only way to get mass produced weapon sets.
These past 5 years have been pretty shit.

Before COVID, lots of companies were making accessory packs.... but not really for 1:12. While there's pent up demand, it seems like most companies shy away from making shit for that scale. Too expensive, i guess.
Whereas with 1:18, they were a dime a dozen companies out there making weapons and accessories of all sorts.

Personally, if i wanted to get something in 1:12, i'd just buy an entire figure. I bought McFarlane's Diablo and Warcraft statueshits just for their fantasy weapons. And like i previous mentioned, i bought Mezco and McFarlane Military figures just for nicely painted modern guns.

>>11673233
I guess I never transferred the picture from my phone but that was for the /toy/ secret santa they do every year on this board, I bought those for an Anon that listed Mythic Legions amongst their request and mostly because as I've mentioned here, I think accessory packs can be fun to have and I had no idea what to buy - almost all his asks for for imports and lines I had never even considered.

If their quality is bad, that's news to me. And what I got him was the Ogre pack, that included some weapons but also included heads.

This is the one I would have bought for myself but it was sold out when I looked and is still sold out today:
https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/23692

Once Todd loses the DC license, I plan to never look at his crap again if I can avoid it. If I see it remaindered or on clearance, maybe. I'll keep waiting for some customizers to list a bunch of random fodder that includes a bunch of weapons on eBay for swords and again, it's a low priority thing. I have a few now, I just would like a few more.

>If their quality is bad, that's news to me.
i guess you weren't here from 2015 to 2020 when the line was new and popular. Lots of complaints.
The last time we had a MYthic Legion General was in 2024, because an entire wave came out defective and 4H shat on everyone who publicly complained. It then merged with the fantasy general due to how few fans were left.

I think you're better off buying Chinese weapons sets, because they can't be any worse than 4H's and will be cheaper. If you wanted heads though? you'd be fine, as there's nothing that can really break.

here's a pic of a Mythic Legion shield breaking. The figure has loose ankles, so he fell onto the desk, his hand immediately popped off (loose joints everywhere) and the peg for the shield snapped off. A 3 inch fall onto Ikea cardboard broke my toy.

And I'm not sure why you hate McFarlane so much. What you see is what you get and their plastic is about as good as Hasbro's. This is why i bought their Blizzard statueshits, because they increased the amount of paint apps on their toys from missing articulation and now i have some really fucking nice fantasy weapons.
