Has anyone else heard of these guys?The same media company that makes The Toys That Made Us for Netflix has bought up a bunch of obscure toylines from the 80's and is trying to pass them off as a new interconnected universe for future comics/shows/movies. They're using shitty forgotten franchises like Biker Mice from Mars or Robo-Force and have also been producing new figures for them. It all seems like a giant scheme to get in on an already dead trend but I kinda like the absurdity of it.
>>10955549Sounds like some real soys faggotry.
>>10956024They found their niche.
>>10956024Toys are all about nostalgia tbqh
>>10955522I definitely see Mattel buying the rights like what they did with Sun-Man and MOTU.
It would be cool to see them do Tech Deck Dudes.

>>10956589I agree with you on the o ring skystriker, i was on board with the 'retro' line and it really made me grumpy when hasbro killed it for o rings then you find out hasbro sold that off to super 7. Like wtf.
>>10956589There's nothing set in stone about having it rotate from cobra to joe on the haslabs and by using your same logic then they should rotate land versus air vehicles each year. If they do decide to do a Rattler haslab then it'll have a much bigger drop off than the Dragonfly from the HISS and will more than likely fund but won't reach all of it's stretch goals. There's going to be a drop off anyways because resalers are going to be backing off due to the HISS' poor performance on the secondary. The HISS sells for around $500 shipped on ebay right now, at it's lowest it was around $400-$450. As a seller your probably only making $70-$80 profit after 13% ebay fees, shipping, and buying the HISS plus sales tax which is horrible for something that takes a year to make. You can make more money selling VAMPs on the secondary than the HISS. So combine resalers backing out of haslabs plus buyers who won't buy a Rattler because it's too big and your going to see a BIG dropoff on backers.
>>10956589Can't wait for Zap just because of his mortar. I really hope they don't fuck up like they did with the Snow Serpents.

>>10955398Big question mark if they actually managed to get Andrew's likeness - apparently the rights for that are funky or something (Sony hates the MCU).
>>10956470>sony hates the mcubut they signed a contracts that further lends out Spidey to Disney & even Venom. Even the other (sony marvel) movies try to inject or pretends to be MCU movies, good try tho
Got the no way home upgraded suit coming, any feedback ? There aren't many reviews of that figure, but that suit is one of my favourites so I got it on sale on HLJ.

In a shocking turn of events Scott “toy guru” Neitlich’s channel will be taken down soon. Someone has posted copyright claims against his channel for using images without their permission. Scott has reached out to the individual with his lawyers and they have yet to respond. Do you think his channel should be taken down or was the claimer in the right here?

Hello,I'm that Anon that posted last year those orange male and female 3D printed action figures. I redesigned everything to work with resin and improved a lot of stuff. I'm still in the experimenting phase which is why I made this Pikachu figure as a test run to see how well it prints for other people.It will be released next week but now I want to know if anyone has any suggestions on how I might improve the figure. Expect an image dump.>printed in Siraya Tech Fast Grey on a 4k printer>~8cm tall
>>10956076Jesus, even I though all that other shit had gone on for way longer than it did. I guess when you spam threads constantly with hundreds of images, and are constantly promising and never delivering things which just angers people, it makes time feel so much longerBut even so, what's your point? OP still hasn't finished either of those figures and it's been over a year at this point. The promise of monthly new items was retarded. And all it does is prove their word means nothing
Its kind of cute if you don't look at the face, but that looks nothing at all like pikachu. I don't think it needs all those joints. They just make it loos really bad and more robotic.
When is faggot op gonna smash it up? Show us how good it is already kek
>>10955863I really like the look of this Pikachu. Will it come with a female tail?

>>10954971I could dig that, if it didn't also randomly have gold parts. You're stretching real hard.
>>10954981I knowits just one of those horrid recolors they pump at times that for some reason, go up higher in price despite looking so shit
Fuck my better judgment, the Arcadia VF19kai is actually pretty nice. Really like the candy red look, I can't tell how much is bare plastic vs painted on gloss but texture wise it's very pleasant to handle.That said, there's some douchey design choices like a hidden peg locking the gerwalk hinge to the wing root which is unprecedented to me coming from the YF19. Also it's just overall a stiff cunt out of box, but now I'd really love to see the mass production F and S models reissued. On top of that, I did get a VF171EX with it which is kinds funny as the 171's design still has enough of the original 17 in it as to work as a companion piece to the 19kai.
question about the Metal Build Hi Nudid they ever made effect parts for the funnels? or maybe by some chinese third party?
>>10956677Nothing official, I thought I saw a third-party one floating around at some point.
Would you want one? By Diamond/Jada/Neca/whoever, and going through all the series (so giving us Soma, Richter, Alucard, Julius) etc
>>10951625For that art style I’d only want figma or figuarts to take a crack at it
>>10955628>And they're just content to make slot machines nowadays...This is just a common misconception due to gaming youtubers. Konami always been a entertainment company first and gaming company second. They been doing casino stuff for decades before the whole "Fuck Konami" trend of the mid-2010s. Infact, companies like Capcom and SEGA does the same thing as shown with Megaman pachinko machines. Like for gods sake, Konami literally sells gym equipment. Secondly, Konami been making games. It's just not the usual Silent Hill or Castlevania. It's franchises like Momotaro Dentetsu and Bomberman that are receiving new entries and are doing great + being super successful in sales, as shown with Momotaro Dentetsu being one of the best selling games on the Switch throughout 2021 to 2023. >inb4 then why can't they do the same with Silent Hill/Castlevania/MGSBecause Konami is struggling to move these franchises forward without their respective creator. You can't just make a new Castlevania entry without planning shit out. This is why they're releasing remasters as a test to see if people are still interested in these IPs. Or how they're letting multiple companies make their own Silent Hill so they can see which game does people like the most.

>>10955832Remember when busou shinki was failing at retail and the megami device edelweiss shelf warmed on AMIAMI for like 2000 JPY a set? And the Konami Store in Roppongi closing for whatever reason selling busou shinkis at discounted prices?

Anyone get anything good recently?
>>10955060I will as soon as something good is released
>>10955060I think my last glyos purchase was the purple manglors like a year+ agoI was eyeing the brinelord limb packs but it doesn't seem like i can build anything with just them and I don't feel like buying $20 worth of tentacles
>>10955060that glitter gradient Geodraxus from the last drop. no pics cause i'm not home. but it's real nice.
There's no digimon general at the moment so why not.

>>10951416This is pretty cheap all things considered. I'm thinking about buying it.
How are Boss Fight Studio's Popeye figures?
>>10955750i've heard they're very limited. most people Ive asked end up suggesting I buy the dasin popeye instead.
>>10955750Hat doesn't connect to head in any meaningful way
>>10955750good but the hat doesn't stick to the head. Also it's way too big. He isn't Mario, it should be way smaller
>>10948794I can only run up to two at a time, but that's rare.Any more and I'm worrying about them too much.I did run five ver.20th at once for six hours so I could unlock every unique egg but they prevented me from focusing on much else.Also, forgot that each of them needed five connects, so I had to restart one, lel

Post why Robo formerly of The Fwoosh is the best toy Youtuber around and wish him a speedy recovery.
>>10956019It's still speculation, but it would be pretty hypocritical to have a channel where you review and critique figures, and then shill your own that are objectively overpriced and poor quality compared to everything else.
>>10956058Wasn't he supposed to replace McFarlane as the King of Toys? Guess Robo failed

Old one fell off, so I'm stepping up. Company status:Joytoy: thriving!McFarlane: hanging in thereBandai: they're still around!?Let's keep it to the toys, and no lore.Thread question - is there a repaint that you'd really want, but hasn't been done yet?
>>10954300>TQI'd really like some Knights of Blood as they appeared in Devastation of Baal. The red/silver combo is nice and I think they could do some interesting things if they included un-helmeted heads, seeing as the KoB have very interesting physical manifestations from indulging the thirst.
