It bewilders me how Nintendo has not capitalized on making toys of the Koopa Clown Car.
>Comes with Mr. Potato Head-like features such as being able to slap on different facial expressions and weapons.
>Can be multiple sizes depending on what Bowser figure you want to set inside or shove multiple characters in there like the Koopalings or just one small one for Bowser Jr.
>There can be two versions with one being the classic flying vehicle that comes with a stand and another can be based off the MK version with wheels.

Quantumania must've disappointed you heavily

I call the man who leads mcfarlane toys now the mad dragon. He ruins relationships with customers that were decades long in but a few years. What else could drive such a man but madness. Not only does he botch toys as they did before him but now they are overpriced in addition. Who would buy such toys?

>>11660596
I call him Ol' Swole, im raw and puckered each time I buy a Mcfarlane Toys figure.

Snail shell x crazy
I don’t really like the body used on Hasuki personally

>>11661314
Snail shell, I like the soft goods on hasuki though and their figures are a little more explicit so that's nice

>>11661314
Depends on what you're looking for. Hasuki offers more SFW options, Snail Shell is more sexy. Hasuki is actual 1/12, Snail Shell is about 1/10.
Snail Shell has more common QC issues, but sometimes Hasuki figures have dark clothes with staining issues or that smell bad.

>>11661291
I mean, on the other hand, if this even is the real end and not just end of part 2, we know all those servants will be reused in other projects. The Fate IP's too profitable. They should've given us more Figmas while the iron was hot.

Kino jail scene.

It's easy for be because I suppose my interests(that get toys anyway) are limited, I'm a bit of a snob so I don't want 5 PoA trash, and I'm a generally cheap bastard.
If something is going to cost me more than $100, it better goddamn well be worth it.

>>11660849
Frogposters are none of those things, and certainly not useful in any real way

I don't keep any kind of weekly/monthly/etc. limit but I have a hard rule of never spending more than $50 on a toy.
I guess "hard rule" isn't quite accurate since I'll bend a bit for bundles or starter sets etc. but the sentiment is to always remember they're just toys and not something I actually *need.*

I can buy a kit from yahoo Japan, have it shipped to my forwarding service and shipped to my gate in about 7 days, and not be horribly gutted by shipping.

There is a strange discrepancy with hlj's shipping prices, I can gave a roughly 2.5 sq ft package shipped for less from ami ami of all places right now for a third what hlj is charging. I just finished out the p-bandai mg wing kits on yahoo Japan, about 5 kits and the mirage frame and shipping was under 200 usd.

>I wasn't bumping.
Sure sounds like it, especially when you're talkingabout the other General dying prematurely and being inactive.

>you were arguing with people who disagreed with your belief that Classified is a failure because you can't find it where you live.
Yes, this is actually happening, unlike your AI posts that you're only putting up because you have nothing else to discuss because you don't want to put effort and own any GI Joes to even post.
And you keep ignoring the most important thing about why GI Joe is a failure. It's not about me not being able to find GI Joes where i live, it's the fact that Walmarts and Targets stopped selling the toyline in many of their stores across the country.
5 years ago, they were found in every single store, with 10-12 different spaces for their toys. 4 years ago they had 6 spaces and some stores stopped carrying the line. Today they have 4 spaces and most stores no longer carry the toyline.

10 years ago, they were selling 100,000 vehicles despite having limited support from toystores. They made 10 million dollars. Today, they're only selling 20,000 vehicles and making only 6 million dollars.
10 years ago, making only 10 million dollars got them canceled. If they're only making 6 million dollars today, you should be expecting Hasbro to finally pull the plug

The writing is on the wall.

>>11661028
Then leave.

Just leave the threads. Everyone is tired of your faggoty-ass posting these same verbatim posts thread after thread, day after day, year after year. You've been trying to convince people here pretty much the entire life of this line that it is a failure with anecdotal "evidence" that most people can prove you wrong just by going into their own nearby stores.

You're a disingenuous retard peddling the same tired old comments trying to convince us a 6 year old line has actually be dead this entire time when anyone with eyeballs can see you're wrong. This line has existed practically as long as the ENTIRE modern era 1:18 Joe across ALL lines for that era.

No one gives a shit about your "muh ollies..." "But muh ross..." "But, but, some guy said his store doesn't carry them...nevermind that yours does..." "But the line will be dead soon....trust me guys....please, it's happening...."

People reply to you with shit-posting because you are posting shit. No one cares about your weird AI crap and it certainly isn't helping to make this thread more engaging.

>>11660932
I hate that they're the same exact figure just in different colors. They could've done something to make the Cobra feel more unique, even something as simple as using a full balaclava mask like the ME toy did, though I would've preferred if he had the Eel's gear. I know it wouldn't be "cartoon accurate" but I'd rather have cool toys over source accuracy.

That said, I'd buy a Lady Jaye/Baroness scuba suit two pack in an instant.

I think the way most people "buy toys" is a waste of money because it's the shopping, keeping up with releases and shitposting that is the hobby. Once the thing is bought it's basically forgotten because NEXT THING is on the horizon. Same with the rest of this shitshow of a civilization really. Monetized and gameified fake and gay facsimilies of life but it's just a hamsterwheel.

Speaking of Marusan/Marmit. Anyone know how many of a figure with a certain paintjob is usually made for either? I say since I know Y-MSF usually gives details that he makes 400 standard units of a figure and then 50 or less on the see through, mono colored, glow in the dark figures etc.

I made a easy 20k this year selling my old amine statues. Haven't even touched my old Joe's, turtles or kaiju stuff.

Old Republic Sith are some of the best performing figures on the secondary market, however when they came out very few people were investing in Lego. There will be thousands of people with a stack of sealed buildable R2s in their garage, however even then he will still likely be worth hundreds a decade after retirement, just play the long game. If you want an investment that will rise in value quicker, choose picrel. Nien Nunb is being slept on and the set itself is an extension of the sale barge which will continue to be sold despite the Skiff retiring any day now. Expect an easy 2x a year after retirement.

One day she came home with that line's Gandalf the Grey, and found the rest of the accessories the next day.
His hat is molded to his hair, and his bags slot into little holes on his belt, and he has a hexagonal stand with a bit of the Middle Earth map on it.
She gave it to her brother, who's always been a big LotR fan.

I'm hoping for a Prowler Ultimate. It's a good dual figure because it's also just a WWII soldier in camo.
