>>10915827>>10915829Whole armor installed and next to the original inner frame of the Seed Zaku.Absolutely no fitting issues into the metal inner frame, which is impressive on its own, as I expected some sort of trouble due to using a relatively unknown third party accessory.With the base body fully put together it feels really, really solid and heavy, the fell you get when lifting this thing up is that of a freaking Metal Build.Guess I'll practice a bit with first the mr hobby weathering bottle using older kits and junk stored in boxes before doing anything to this one
>>10916010Even got a fancy monoeye ready
Anybody use Mr Surfacer 1500? I put down two layers, but I'm worried that it won't serve its purpose as a primer and will peel off cause it's so thin. But I also worry that the same will happen if I put more layers down.
>>10916344>it won't serve its purpose as a primerThat's because it's not, it's a surfacer. Its purpose is to fill fine surface imperfections. It will stick to regular plastic as well as any other lacquer-based paint (which is to say it will stick pretty good as long as the plastic is washed), but it will not stick to resin or any other non-plastic materials as well as primer would.Putting down more coats would make 0 difference as to adhesion, all it would do is fill more imperfections (or fine details like panel lines) until your surface is smooth as a baby's ass.
>>10916454so how do you prime areas that need that fine detail to be visible?
Don’t get me wrong, they play with toys as toddlers (mostly paw patrol shit), but around the time they hit elementary school age, kids don’t care about toys anymore. What the hell is the big idea? Are video games and social media really that more interesting? LEGO seems to be the only toy kids potentially care about nowadays. Kids don’t seem to be into action figures as much as we did growing up.
>>10909256Could be because this eras toys are absolute shit. No wonder. When I was a kid toy stores were everywhere and the competition was fierce so tehre was like a billion fucking toys out there. Now? It's like 3 companies selling the same old shit.
>>10916413Walmart killed the competition by only stocking toys with media tie ins, and only the biggest companies can afford popular media tie in licenses.McFarlane lucked in, because WB and Mattel ruined DC's reputation, which drove down the price for the DC license.
>>10912577I just want to know how big the crackpipe was that these boards of directors were using to justify the price increase for 4-5" figures to 30 dollars. THIRTY FUCKING DOLLARS. I cannot fathom how much crack they must have been on to come up with such a number but I assure you they are certifably insane.

Since it seems they aren't making Nomas alongside Pan, i may have to make a clay figure of him, his design is very simple so it shouldn't be hard
>>10912016Holy fuck, you know it's really bad when you can find metal cooler cheaper on ebay. You have to be a brain dead fuck face to buy from BBTS. There are still several places online selling cooler near retail price.
>>10916510BBTS still occasionally has stupid pricing like this, but their prices have mostly equalized. Like for instance I was wondering today whether to keep my Mininpla Blue Beet from HLJ, since even with the cheapest shipping it was slightly MORE expensive than BBTS.

>>10914254White Tiger. This is the one introduced in Avengers Academy (there have been many characters that had that name, including a tiger that was turned into a human).
>>10914254Boy you're projecting pretty hard there.
>>10914254>Probably because being fat makes it pretty difficult if not nearly impossible to look good. It's instinctual to see a fat person and be disgusted, and for good reason, since it's indicative of poor health and other problems with the personYou sound like a filthy peasant.
>>10914553>>10914612You're both being defensive. Being fat doesnt necessarily mean you're unhealthy and/or ugly, but you still took harmless bait personally

I wish Target distribution for sonic figures weren't a fucking hot mess. It seems like they're stocking random past cases like the one with Jet, Blaze, or even Big.I missed Heavy King wave at two different locations. At least I finally have 4 inch Classic Knuckles finally.
Welcome to the Fashion Doll General!A thread for discussion of fashion dolls including Barbie, Disney, LOL OMG, Rainbow High, Monster High, Licca-chan etc but not BJD. There is a BJD general over in /jp/.Other toys considered dolls as well as girl collectable toys that are related to dolls or can be used as accessories to dolls are also welcome such as LOL, Shopkins, Polly Pocket and the like.*Reminder to REPORT trolling, bait and off topic posts instead of responding.*Previous Thread: >>10890761>Archived Threads:https://archive.palanq.win/toy/search/subject/Fashion%20Doll%20General/>Helpful Links:Comment too long.

>>10915753That was my immediate thought too lmaoThe art style just doesn't look right
>>10916175I think it's the line weight and color, this has very thin and colored lines whereas the main G1 art has fairly thick black lines. Coloring your lines is a more trendy style than black lines so it feels anachronistic when emulating older art styles
>>10916175I think Shipman drew it and just can't 1:1 the monster high style, someone else should have done the final product
>>10915742>>10916211Lel yes this art quality is exactly like the 14 year olds who use dodge and burn tools for shading on deviantart.
>>10915712>>10915720For a $75 collector's doll she is boring as fuck, I honestly don't even mind her design at all, but for all the hype? Huge letdown>>10915742God damn they seriously couldn't get someone else to do more G1-accurate art?>>10915782This 100%, she's fine but not worth the build-up or price point

>>10908783Skeleton Warriors already got a revival a few years ago through kickstarter. They only made Baron Dark since the second figure in the line was Grimskull which nobody wanted.The actual figure is great but they messed up with the scale. Line was meant to be 1/18 so Baron Dark was 5" since he's supposed to tower over 3.75" figures but people just saw him as a shrimp next to their 1/12 figures and too tall for 1/18. I own the figure and it's pretty damn good, wish they had made more. Would love a revival cartoon, but no one seems to care and if they see He-Man keeps failing no one will dare try.>>10914253There's already a spiritual successor to Dino Rider toys, Imaginext has been doing them for over a decade now. Dinosaurs with technology and weapons to attack and humans/aliens that can ride them.>>10915600These were likely done to gauge interest in the brand. I own it, the sculpts are amazing, I do wish they had some paint but at that size it wouldn't have been great either so whatever.I remember an anon on /toy/ leaked that after Jurassic World Dominion Universal would take a break from Jurassic and Dino Riders would come back in full swing, but it was just a lie now that enough time has passed sadly.
>>10914173Imaginext and 5 Suprise have made some pretty inspired toys with a Dino Riders feel, and Mattel put >>10915600 out for some reason. Plus I found this thing on Amazon once and it's amazing.

Bandai vs Jazwares. Which is the better Tyranitar?
>>10916450You can eliminate the nendo, its a bit stylized and it's gona cost too much for what it is cause it comes with Cynthia. Get the Jazwares it'll look good next to their Tyranitar.
>>10916455Why would you still want a small toy of a big guy? Might as well get the moncolle
>>10916455I mean I guess it depends on what sort of display you have. Do you want a ton of pokemon and dont really care all that much about how they are next to each other? Do you have a smaller team in mind like >>10916440 , where scale clearly matters more compared to a trainer? Are you just getting this as a one off to play with (in which case articulation is probably better)? Is it a pokemon that can even have good articulation based off its body type? Like Tyranitar is a pretty chunky guy, the select is limited and not perfect but I think they did a good enough job squeezing some movement in and didn't butcher it badly with a ton of ugly joints
>>10916453>jazwares shit>scale accuratethis is the funniest cope poorfags use
>>10916480Still better scale than shortos

this was a huge, dense build. i like how it turned out
more like a full playset that's also a vehicle. not sure if it needed to fold out on both sides, but i guess it lets you get in to take interior shots.
>>10915323it was released a few weeks ago >>10901264
>>10904091Mega has been in a coma for a long while. Time to play with its taint.
>>10915899>>10915902Still undecided if I want it badly enough to take the 300 maplebuck hit. Have the original and it hasn't seen any action in years; still, I passed on the Mammoth and the Halo Wars Elephant and have regrets on both. Kinda tempted to get it as a celebration of a long overdue contract negotiation coming to a successful conclusion (pending ratification later in the month), was a long drawn-out thing, very stressful and we were literally hours from walking off the job. Also that Lord Hood fig...
Was hoping to see how you anons display your figures, so I can s̶t̶e̶a̶l̶ be inspired by your displays to help with my own. Nothing I do seems to sit right with me so I'd love some pointers, especially since I've seen some of you guys do some nice ass displays with the randomest of characters. rn I just got my shit in the general poses that I want but positioning is harder than I thought.
>>10912892>>10915863Simple but soulful, This is what I strive for actually.I especially like the posing and theme of red vs blue.>>10914332>>10915760 Shit like this is very impressive but I wonder how tedious the upkeep can be.>>10915533>>10915966Even if robutts aren't my thing personally,it's cool to see all types of robot designs bunched together like this.Honestly, I would definitely trade my final wars godzilla for the not dumb looking Kiryu Monsterarts.>>10915970>>10915926it'd be nice if I weren't so autistic for Goku, maybe I'd have space for other ips that I like LOL>>10916031Yeah maybe I should cut down on the gokus lolComment too long.
