So I'm in the UK looking for a Dragapult select figure and the only ones I can find are from US ebay sellers, most of which not specifying a shipping cost to me.After messaging some asking for shipping costs it seems most use this 'ebay international shipping program' where they send the package to ebay and have no idea how much ebay will actually charge me once they send it.Anyone got any experience with this? The dragapult figure costs ~$30 and I don't want to get raped by a shipping cost of more than the figure itself, that I can't even see until I've actually bought the product
>>10988222You will get raped by shipping costs. eBay shipping is expensive and slow. I'm in New Zealand, I don't get charged less than $50usd anymore. Ordinary postal services are faster and cheaper, around $24-35usd. I imagine things won't be better in the UK.
>>10988298Shame, but expected as much, thanks for replying
>>10988222As I understand it you can't send toys from the US to the UK via eBay's international shipping program. You will need to persuade the seller to send it to you via another carrier, which probably means they'll have to update the listing so you can choose this option.
>>10988222I have used the Global Shipping Program a few times from U.S. ebay sellers, to Australia. Sometimes, if you really want the thing, you just have to eat it. That's the reality of limited distribution & lazy sellers. They get indemnity from the GSP that they don't get from USPS, and it's because of shady buyers who've fucked them in the past that they have no trust or willingness to take risks. I get it. And I get your position, because I've been there.Tl;dr - if you really want the thing, buy it; you will forget the shipping pain and enjoy the thing down the track. Don't make a habit of it & it won't be the end of you.
>>10988647 There have been several lengthy discussions about this on ebay's community forum. Here's one:https://community.ebay.com/t5/Report-eBay-Technical-Issues/EIS-not-offering-shipping-to-UK/td-p/34026140The short version is that as a result of post-Brexit changes, the UK government now requires certain categories of goods to be accompanied by a declaration that they meet UK standards when they are imported into the UK. When goods are imported through ebay's international shipping program, ebay will be responsible for providing this declaration. They seem to have decided there's no easy way for them to do this, so they've suspended shipping goods to the UK in all the affected categories (one of which is toys).
Does anyone else wait a bit to open a new figure? If i went and bought something in store, no, but sometimes, I save something to open for a rainy day as a little hit of dopamine. Extends the excitement, i guess. Anyone else do this or am i just bizarre.
>>10987939>don't open the figure>Not checking for QC problems>When you finally open it you have 2 left feet and the store won't do shit because you waited too longNo.
>>10987939Ive had wfc jetfire for almost 4 years, still un opened. Ive had black zarak for 2 years, still unopened. Those are the oldest ive got that i intend to open. What am i waiting for? Im waiting till i find my 'home', i do not want to pack them up again.
>>10988254This happened to me with the Figuarts Hit. I waited a long ass time and its wrists blew up when I swapped the hands twice.
>>10988461If its any consolation I think thats an issue with a ton of people's Hits. Mine are whitening from minimum use and I've heard stories of people who have them break whilst he's posed up on a shelf without them even touching him
>>10988184Nigger go back.Everyone know the OPENINGS IMAGE of any thread is the most important part.if you post a picture that you know people don’t like, you gonna get a lot of attention, but don’t be surprised if the attention addresses your picture instead of your topic.
Are Power Rangers toys saved after six years of ineptitude, or has the damage been done?
>>10993278If Cosmic Fury is Dino Fury season 3, Zeo is MMPR season 4. They're both direct continuations which start in the middle of an existing conflict.
>>10992936>How many completed teams did we actually get in the Lighting Collection?MMPR (plus Ninja and Metallic Armor sets)MMARZeoIn SpacePsychoLost GalaxyDino ThunderSPD A-Squad>Semi-CompleteSPD (only missing Kat and Nova, which were one-off appearances)>IncompleteComment too long.

>>10993289Zeo didn't start of in the middle of a conflict but at the aftermath of one. Then sets up a new conflict and new status quo. None of this "my mum had secretly been a villain" or "how cool, the blue ranger from like 28 years ago is back" bullshit. Zeo also aired only a year after the movie. That was when the show was popular enough to have multiple full-length seasons. That time is over.
>>10984425It's strange that episodes of Cosmic Fury aren't on either of the PR official youtube channels. Or that only like 3 toys were produced with the Cosmic Fury brand. Toys that you can't find on Hasbro's site.Hell, you can't even find the amazon exclusive Megazord on that amazon.com anymore. It's probably going to be valuable someday. >pic related, 3 top results you get when you search "Cosmic Fury" on amazon
>>10993565>None of this "my mum had secretly been a villain" or "how cool, the blue ranger from like 28 years ago is back" bullshit.You're right, Zeo started with "Zedd and Rita destroyed the Command Center" and "We just spent a bunch of time gathering the Zeo Crystal" and "We lost our powers and now what are we going to do?"
Best way to fix this?
>>10987414Or maybe you just need to get with the times, grandpa.

Which toy line has the best community AND makers/designers who enjoy connecting with the fandom?
>>10979623>"hey are you going to actually release characters that we want like *insert popular mario or sonic character*>"we here at jakks do believe in providing for our fans with the best quality-" *nothing of note and basically just a nice cooperate way of saying idk*that's what all of those retarded Q&As were like.half of their figures are shit and they have god awful distribution.
>>10979280Kotobukiya's mecha musume franchises but strictly within the borders of Japan
>>10979875Yeah, they’ve done a lot better lately. Especially with Haslabs,
>>10980754I need to move

>>10992877Honestly not big into love live, but I like some char designs and I enjoyed the first season of Nijigasaki (didn't like the 2nd), which of course, they skipped out on making figma of. Dropped Superstar.
>>10992884>NijigasakiI'm still coping they didn't even try with these and just make the boring Superstar ones.Imagine a meaty Emma and/or a petite Rina fig.

With or without sex and it doesnt have to be a part of the same site like with jr and next. With the hamster games they developed then deleted and wasted so much time and money on we couldve gotten a game with guns, death, crimes, robbery, drugs, grand theft auto, sex with webkinz shop owners or webkinz x webkinz sex to create baby pet hybrids. New shops like an X Shop Instead of WSHOP. People would still be playing that unlike the hamster and jr games they got rid of.

>>10970783Generally, #8 for '82-'84, #9 for '85-'94. I hear #10 will work, too.
>>10973876Retarded
>>10970783How is it semi related?
>>10973876I would guess those are o-ring sizes, personally I think o-ring figures are for gays those, so please think through you decision here.
