Looks like we're getting a MDLX Bass
>>11678221damn, maybe I should sell mine. not even posing him.
>>11678246yeah the paint chipping is bad on these, i don't really know whats up with it because threezero is normally pretty smart about this stuff, mine had the paint chipping on the forearm hinges immediately thanks to them being diecast and not well toleranced
>>11678246>>11678392has threezero ever gone back and updated anything before for like a 2.0 or something?I can't stand paint chipping from diecast feet
>>11678515No idea. I have other figures with die cast feet, and their's haven't chipped, so I assume they just used shit paint on these. Feet in general should NEVER be diecast however. It puts extra strain on joints, and naturally, is much easier to get chipped in general.That said their X is decent so far. The chest is diecast so little chance THAT will chip, I fucking hope. Really though I wish companies would just stop using this shit metal in the first place. It never helps anything, only becomes a problem.I'm definitely going to grab the Hiya Zero and X though. And a Hiya MM if they make one to replace this shit ass MDLX.

How do you buy rare toys off of social media and not get scammed?
>>11676412I have never got scammed in person.
>>11673300>ZelleZelle is run and owned by actual banks and it's just another way for them to make money now that they can't charge all these fucking fees because people expect free checking or don't even use checks.>>11676412Someone passed me a $100 counterfeit bill. Was it intentional, who knows. And asking for $20 as I started doing after that, doesn't help since it gets counterfeited as much. And yes, it looked that good.
>>11678277You’re a fucking dumbass lmfao
>>11678277Avoiding counterfeit cash is super easy. Just look at shit in the sun, because 99.9999% dont bother to use the right paper, muchless have paper that gets watermarked.And those counterfeit markers are really cheap. They're so cheap you can probably get one for free if you ask a friendly owner/manager, if not a used one for a buck.Also, a black light will make the metallic strips shine in day-glo colors. I think everyone who owns a toy should own a blacklight flashlight, because who doesn't own glow in the dark toys? Shit makes your figures instantly bright.
>>11678465I'm sure you feel better about yourself, son.At least your mommy loves you and lets you live in her basement.One day, you'll inherit the house and even though you'll be an old, fat virgin by then, you'll finally have the freedom to have some tranny hooker swing by to give you a handsy so you can pretend you're no longer a virgin.

>>11676408I should have been more specific, I was VS'ing the Ver Ka against the new RG Wing Zero that most recently came out. I built the RG Wing Zero Custom during covid and that was an immediate headache and floppy mess, extremely disappointing. Super happy I picked up this MG, will grab the new RG later. First MG kit in 10+ years. Last one was either Zeta 2.0 or Astray Red, wicked difference in builds.
>>11677053As someone who just built that, that's a tough choice but I'd still go with Ka. It's not like RG TV Zero it's a bad kit, it's exceptional, all the parts hold together fine and a single arm can hold up both busters unlike the HG but I just like the MG more visually.When you get the RG don't forget to grab Epyon too.
So I found a metal parts set for the inner frame for Wing Zero Ver Ka, I didn't know these were a thing. Is it just for better balance and to mitigate stress from the transformation? I don't think I be posing it a ton but I could imagine the wings sagging one day, do metal joints make a difference in that aspect?
>>11677134I used most of the metal parts for this one >>11676213 you can kind of see it poking out in the foot joints and I personally wouldn't bother unless you want the extra weight. The knees for the metal parts are horrendously loose for mine which is why I didn't use those.
>>11677134there are lots of diecast inner frames for various kits, ranging from MGs to RGs to even fucking bootlegsThis is the Daban Strike I'm building for which I got the diecast inner frame option set (specifically made for the thing lmao).Pretty good so far, the only other time I did something similar was with a MG Zaku Warrior from Seed and the metal frame there really helped it with its balance, since the normal model is extremely light it has a hard time to even stand up with all its weapons
Why isn't Playmobil more popular?
>>11677439Why don't you just buy domestic? >_>
I offen wonder what kinda crap Asian people import from America.
>>11677439Another note on the "free shipping": they have a .jp site and a .com/international one. The latter pretty much has baked in higher prices compared to the domestic site to make up for the free shipping they offer so regularly.Anybody who's worked with forwarders and proxies should do the math and see if it's better to go through those. This may end up being cheaper, but doesn't have to be.If the forwarder undervalues, that'd save you some of those taxes and duties, too, but obviously not everything.
>>11677907Find me a shop that sells Japanese only Gashapon items individually and I will. >>11677948Last year when I used their site, the free shipping was absolutely worth it. I was buying items worth $1-3 a pop and my total order could be as low as $20-30 bucks, so even if their price per item was "higher" I didn't mind. Throw in the fact that this site is the *only* site I found that had a deep and frequently updating stock of the items I was looking for, and was selling them at non-absurd prices (for the most part, ebay prices for these things was three times higher) and it was very much worth buying from them. I'm glad I got everything I wanted back before the changes, because it wouldn't be worth making those small orders now. ....err, but yea, Playmobil. I managed to decorate that Castle I bought! Re-ment's stuff works really well with Playmobil's scale and has much nicer details then Playmobil's accessories. The Castle itself is still missing some key pieces that kind of bug me, but it's complete enough for me to play with and I'm not sure if it's worth investing more money into just to get those last two or three items I really want. Maybe I'll try and grab some pics when the kid goes to bed, can't get anywhere near it while she's awake because as soon as i start to play with it she wants to play with it too lol.
>>11678478Did you buy her a castle?
Also called Digital Pets and VPets or V-Pets? I guess also V Pets. Yeah.Question of the Thread: Did anyone buy picrel?
>>11676062>>11671684Does anyone know who made the Care Bears pets? It wasn't made by any RoseArt subsidiary, yet it functions exactly like a GigaPet.Did some foreign manufacturer just hijack the GigaPets programming not realizing it's an established brand and not a generic v-pet?
>>11677337“ThumbsUp!” is the brand selling it and seem to mostly sell those “160 games in one” type things on their website but somehow got the license to sell Atari and Care Bears products. Wouldn’t be shocked if the code was just stolen. They claim to have plans to release 5 other versions in a 3 year span and that the current wave is just the version 1 so I guess they sold well or they really want to make quick bucks on false promises, who knows.
my grumpy still hasnt evolved or whatever they call it on the care bears pet so i wonder if mine has a programming error >>11677353>5 versions in 3 yearssounds very not realistic

Get ready for SMART Bricks, SMART Tags and SMART Minifigures to add a whole new dimension to LEGO play. (YES WE’RE EXCITED.)So I guess this is the future of plastic brick toys now. Companies are making everything "smart". At least Lumibricks still has their light gimmickWhat do we think of this? Pre-orders open tomorrow by the way.

>we're incorporating AI into lego
that sounds like the natural evolution to things at least ever since lego mario came into existence
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. The Black Seas Barracuda on fire off the shoulder of the Eldorado fortress. I watched Futuron Defender ships glitter in the dark near the Blacktron message intercept base. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
Why do toy companies have this fascination with making toys that have lights and sounds and then pretending it’s some kind of revolutionary technology? Hasbro did it with CommTech and Force Link for Star Wars, and LEGO did it with the whole “Smart Play” thing. Why?
>>11670753>"i hate that the actors were ashamed of being apart of the nanking style rape of star wars and i respect the dumb fetal alcohol syndrome pin head who stood up for her character that was artificially pushed by the feminist swine studio head"Shut the fuck up you absolute faglord
>>11668584Why did rian think killing snoke would possibly be a good idea? Kylo could never replace him as a villain as kylo ren stopped being cool the moment he smashed apart his awesome helmet and became some faggy love interest for rey that was straight out of a YA novel from like 2010
>>11670753Yeah, their job was to act and go on promo tours, and they did that job. Now they’re free to say they don’t like the final product and just did it for the money. They don’t need to swear undying fealty to Disney just because they acted in a movie once.
>>11667533Force Link was such a piece of shit. It was clunky, it barely worked, and on top of that there was no way to update it. They had to release a second version that had samples for the new figures and it would have just kept going like that because fuck you, you're a kid and you don't get to demand futreproofability, now buy the slop.Somehow Hasbro managed to do this same basic concept 20 years earlier and did it much better with the Commtech chips that came with Episode I figures. Yes the chips were not in the figures themselves but the functionality was much better and you only needed the one scanner and you were set. You could even save up to four onto the scanner's memory, and it had some fun Star Wars sounds like lasers, lightsabers and explosions built in.
>>11667553>Sorry kids, Christmas is canceled. I really subverted your expectations there, didn't I?

>>11679062>I don’t really need them to be that expressive because we don't see them making different faces and don't really know their personality.So because we don't know these character's personality you're fine with them just having no personality? they could easily just have some boilerplate expressions, sad, angry, happy, etc. the promo work and what few expressions they do get already give them some personality, there's no reason snail shell can't lean in to that. It's also a little annoying when the faces we get don't have a lot of variation. like lustia is either smiling or smiling with tongue, you get two faces but not actually a lot of difference between them, they could have made one face angry with fangs or something to play into the whole demon thing and gotten a lot more dimension out of it with no extra work from what they did. and angela has blindfolded and not blindfolded, but basically only one expression.
>>11679108>angela has blindfolded and not blindfolded, but basically only one expression.That one is truly criminal.
>>11679098>>11679098Maybe I'll walk back the comment on personality because I do kind of imagine their personalities. Like to me the tactical maid is a kuudere type, Muse is awkward, Grisa is dumb, etc. But the couple face plates they give you + their product shots is enough to imagine that. Ironically if they gave you more varied ones, it could be harder to determine what their baseline character is supposed to be.>they could easily just have some boilerplate expressions, sad, angry, happy, etc.But they do? Most have some kind of smile or an angry combat face>It's also a little annoying when the faces we get don't have a lot of variation. like lustia is either smiling or smiling with tongueyeah that's true I don't like when companies include faces that are similar it feels like a wasted slot.>>11679132What other faces would you guys have liked for Angela? I read her as a sort of non emotive/stoic character. She is beautiful/angelic so I don't see her making a fool of herself and having funny expressions. Maybe not a fighter either so no need for angry/screaming face. But idk maybe I only imagine her as stoic because they didn't give her any more expressions....yeah thinking about it more maybe you guys are right. Like while I can live with the lack of faces, more accessories is never a bad thing and it would be good if they leaned more into the "story" they tell with their marketing by better defining their characters with more expressions
>>11679171I would've liked an either angry or sad face. angry to give kind of a divine wrath thing going on since she has kind of a fuckoff spear and the four wings make me thing archangel warrior vibes. otherwise a mildly sad face could've also doubled as a sympathetic or merciful, just knit brows and a small frown go a long way.
>>11679186wonder if they will make a black repaint down the line with an angry face. feel like that makes too much sense not to do
