Transformers are totally unappealing to me when the design style strays from their Japanese super robot origins and look increasingly western.
>>11706380>look increasingly western.That's literally a chinese design.
>>11706643and china loved the bayformer movies which were extremely american
>>11706558Rice is rice.
>>11706393>Even TFOne's designs I still dislikethey were really bland looking
>>11706393I don't mind Prime, but they made for shit toys with how thin and brittle they felt and it always felt like I would break them while transforming them. Animated had super stylized designs too but the toys were still chunky and felt solid.

It's surprising how this franchise hasn't died yet considering we just got some random hairy ones that were at Walmarts (if you're lucky) and now there's minis at 5 below for $1 and a new standard series (no idea where the fuck those are sold).
According to the walmart site the new blindbags are up for sale
>>11707356$1 is a great deal. Hopefully they'll do more again like with their other IPs (ie Care Bears). I think making them cheaper is a good idea to allow for more accessibility but distribution still needs work. Right now on Amazon you can buy a SINGLE Mad Ball series 1 in the potion bottle for $30 which isn't worth it.
>>11708493My thoughts exactly. I also think Five Below should make a bigger deal about their exclusive toys. They're effectively the closest thing to a modern day toy store, especially with how lackluster nu-TRU has turned out.Distro for this revival's been awful from the onset. Anyline that goes direct to walmart usually has a rocky time branching out.
>>11708536True 5below has a nice handful of exclusive toys and they're like alright quality and their stuff is better than the $1.50+ crap at the dollar tree surprisingly. The fact they still have a $1 section is a miracle.Fingers crossed MadBalls has improved distribution/visibility. Those DNA design figures are great and like not TOO pricy, but they drag their feet on releases. I really wanted a Skullface figure. I love my Oculus Orbus though.
>>11708565Honestly there's alot of bang for your buck at five below, especially around christmastime. You just have to check in routinely to see what's come in. Seems like they're getting overstock figures in again considering the number of Jakks and Spinmasters Sonic and DC toys they're stocking now. As for Dollar Tree, Final Faction's early demise was a massive missed opportunity. It was a step in the right direction otherwise.If these new Madballs take off my hope is that we get modern versions of the old Madball action figures. Honestly thinking it over now maybe Playmates would do well with the IP. It was supposed to get an animated series by this point, I wonder what happened.
ITT: unbranded toys from your childhood. The strawberry grandma candy of toys. Post em.

You had to be there.

Can anyone explain to me why Ben 10 seemingly does not have an adult Collector’s line?All of the iconic Alien designs seem perfect for more high end figures or at least a premium edition Omnitrix to get the ball rolling. It just surprises me that a franchise made for toy merchandising and a passionate now adult fanbase is still sequestered to just kids figures. Look at Gi Joe, Transformers, Pokémon, Power Rangers, TMNT, He-Man, Thundercats, Gargoyles etc etc.Ben 10 was my absolute favorite cartoon until Omniverse and I would go crazy seeing my favorites likes Heat Blast, Swampfire, Ben Mummy, Frankenstrike, Rath, etc.I just find it crazy, Ben 10 was like the biggest thing in the world at one point. I think there is enough nostalgia to tap into that market now, my generation is ready for this.
>>11696027Gecko did variants for his Heatblasts. I'm surprised more of these guys havent. https://youtu.be/6Sm4hER4-sE?si=_hFgNhhekRx2LvMv
>>11696064Gecko's are pretty good but G98's look way more accurate and better proportioned I think
>>11695074Wake me up when we get a good gwen tennyson figure
>>11696412Wtf
>>11695074Once we are all in our 50 we'll get nostalgia toylines for stuff from the early-mid 00s. 80s kids have to start dying off before anyone else gets a turn.
What do you guys plan to do with your toys before you die? Whether you don't want kids, are unable to have them, or your own kids don't share your interests, what should you do with them? I love my small collection and plan to enjoy them for the rest of my life until my time comes and when that time finally comes, I want them to make other people happy but don't know how to go about it.
>>11708369No, I'm not that guy but this shouldn't make you depressed because we're all going to die someday and it's good to know what to do when that time comes. Not only do I find my toys awesome to look at but they're extra special to me because my family and I have bonded over them and they're going to be the only things keeping me sane (at least until I find a woman and/or pet) as I eventually lose my remaining closest loved ones.
Not my problem kek
>>11708067>>11708067had this thought when i was like 10 playing with Hero Factory and had an existential crisis and started tearing (not crying cos i'm a big boy) because i had no idea what to do with my toys and thought they were gonna end up in a landfilli still haven't reconciled with this as a grown human being, mostly just compartmentalizing and enjoying my plastic in the moment. i do know toy museums exist here and there, i could donate before i went, but i have no idea if they would want it and of course it needs to be in good condition too

>Kotobukiya Preparing to Announce New Rockman Kits in FebruaryOh snap
How sturdy are these kits?
>>11706964They're alright but some of them have very tiny piece that can be a pain in the ass. For me the only kit from the X line that had an important piece snap on me was the tiny joint for Axl's legs.

Dude has disposable income. Let him spend it on whatever makes him happy.

>>11707804For a computer or legos?
>>11708096Either.
What are your thoughts on it? Do you prefer the 2.5 in, 4 in, or movie lines or do you prefer to combine them? What does your collection look like so far? Do you have a limit on what characters you're collecting (i.e. if you're bothering with all the Koopalings/minions)? Hopes/fears/expectations for 2026?
So no 2.5 inch figures?

>buying from aliexpressthats how ya get scammed
>>11705703I tried buying it off a chinese seller on ebay, and they pulled the same trick lol. 4th and final attempt is with an american, the shipping is brutal though but I had wasted so much time trying to get it I'm into sunk cost fallacy territory.
Aliexpress:Buy item, seller contacts you, Anon shipping has gone up please pay additional funds if you want your item or please ask agent to cancel.Ebay:Chinks running from a small shutter store. Order expensive items online. Once arrived they steal/remove bits from it and claim to ebay it arrived damaged, demand you refund them, recieve item back with parts stolen. Ebay do fuck all about it. They actually know this scam goes on but do not 1 thing against it.Dont ban the user, dont allow negative feedback to warn other sellers, find out the scam sellers have 2nd or 3rd accounts doing exactly the same shit.Amazon:Put high shipping prices on everything.It's also just shit your getting cheaper from aliexpress or Ebay but because its Amazon you add more to the amount.I've seen people on amazon selling glue sticks for 15-20 bucks and then charging shipping. Its then the exact same sticks on ali for 4-8 with free shipping.
>>11700109What’s the name of the store? I used to buy from one with the Bandai logo and they even packaged my order with extra padding

>>11707571I do. The main guy’s super passionate and committed to giving customers releases that are as complete possible (and he cracks me up). Also their product is getting better crazy fast. I’ll definitely be watching out for them acquiring a franchise I’m interested in.
