I love variant rabbit holes, thanks to those that collect and publish this info for us lazy anons to find. I made this thread to see if anyone has random variant sites, pics, fun to share.

>>11660344>F1a-1.jpgThis is just sad. It looks like a collection of sad mistakes, over exhausted slave/child/prison labor with no QC or even American distributor checks due to them being very minor discrepancies. I mean, light blue versus 'slightly darker blue' is just stupid nonsense, trying to make something out of nothing.At least this looks intentional: >>11660404
>>11666139Toy-makers did lots of deliberate variants as well as "running changes" in the 90s. You should count how many variants there are of POTF2 red-card Boba Fett. It was normal, and collectors loved it.
>>11666385>>11666139Ty did this BS too and collectors bought it up

>>11667165Oh, sorry, I don't see much variety. These ones? I know I could find the real ones somewhere but I'm not willing to pay much + shipping for that
>>11666590Obviously, any Number 57 stuff can be modified with paint to fit a certain aesthetic. The more recent Oni and Police robots with their new pre-assembled inner frame have good stature and could go well with the 30MM kit you have. I’d also recommend the soldier kits, though they come with a lot of armor options that change them from snipers to scouts. If you have spare inner frames, the Hunting Tooth bike/beast kit comes with a nice soldier armor set, as well.I would recommend Gray Baskyrottos, though.
>>11667613I see those stocked by Euro shops too so they must not be too bad.
Let's say you have a kit that is supposed to have an instrument panel, but the part is just a blank smooth piece and there are no decals for the instruments. What are you even supposed to do in a situation like that?Post WIPs.
>>11668063Many thanks!
I didn't see any foty threads so I thought I would make one myself hope that's ok >.<Feel free to post your top figure(s) and discuss other anons'. I picked 5 for myself but you can pick more or less. These are probably my favorites from the year in order from 1-5>1. Black Series AnakinLong over due but wait was worth it. He is really well designed and face likeness is easily one of the best, if not the best in the line. I am sad I couldn't get the SDCC Mustafar duel set with the extra heads and hands but even without them he is fantastic.>2. S.H.Figuarts Romance Dawn ZoroZoro is really fun to pose. Double knees would have been nice but even without them you can get him into a lot of cool poses. >3. Figma LaiosIdk I just like Laios and I'm glad they are making Dungeonmeshi figures. They will make for nice comfy displays and I am looking forward to the rest.>4. S.H.Figuarts Rei AyanamiThis one surprised me how much I like her. She has really good articulation and all the joints feel nice and smooth. desu I am an Asuka fag and don't really even care that much about Rei so I might have put Asuka on the list instead but I won't be getting her before the year ends.Comment too long.

>>11666871shf*
>>11658643my top 5:1. Figma Raging Wolf (Elden Ring)2. Figma Link DX (Zelda Tears of the Kingdom)3. Figma Eunie (Xenoblade 3)4. S.h. Figuarts Malenia (Elden Ring)5. Hammond Collection Spinosaurus (Jurassic park 3)
These are my top 5, 2025 was a great year for figures all around. My figma Skull Knight still isn’t here but he would’ve been in my top 5 if he was.
>>11666871The Howling figure was one of my favs of the year :)

Happily got a driving pomni and some cybermen
>>11660541I am so tempted to buy that particular Pomnomneromneynom
>>11660541I got the Gamestop one but I really like the look of this one. Where's it from?I ATTEMPTED to watch the series and imma be real the voices are so bad cause it's ((Voice Actor)) tier shit[We found them on Twitter]But I really like her design, some moments and the memes
>>11667147>Where's it from?Its the kart pomni plushhttps://glitchproductions.store/products/pomni-kart-plush
>>11667147I will also say that I love the show alot and i find pomnis voice very cute but even then i will say im not the biggest fan of the direction of TADC in the last episode and i hope the cast has a happy ending by the finale
Why Pomni says "eh" when something hits her?
>everything i want now is street dated or a preorder>companies hold off everything in store for shitty "bomb" style drop events every 3 months or so with barely anything releasing in betweenAnyone else fucking pissed off by this shit? Target especially is infamous for this shit, as alot of figures have non manufacturer street dates now that target themselves arbitrarily puts on items for their shitty reset date. Its a recent move too like within the past 3 years or so its gotten to be the norm. Whats worse is that nothing new releases around christmas time at all now, despite 10+ years ago thats when all the new toys would usually come out. Intentionally baiting people for months on end with no new product in between just enrages customers imo.
>>11660746>>11660747You should ask yourself why you need all these toys. You dont have to answer me nor anyone else, but you need to know if that benefits you at all in the longest possible run. It almost sounds like you buy for the sake of buying, and only live for the hunt. But then youre just leaving behind what you have, thus making this whole collecting thing pointless. You should keep on playing with your current toys, and do what it takes to make them really earn their place there
>>11660768I already said im keeping alot of toys that i already have, but alot of stuff i really just dont want anymore>It almost sounds like you buy for the sake of buying, and only live for the hunt. Yeah that tracks, i really do impulse buy alot to my detriment>>But then youre just leaving behind what you have, thus making this whole collecting thing pointless. Its early in the morning and i feel retarded in the mind but i dont fully understand that part, could you elaborate?
>>11660746If you forget or don't keep track of what you have on order, that's on you bud.
>>11660769You only buy toys for the sake retail therapy. Now that you have them, they''ve practically become a mass of "generic filler objects" in your room that serves no purpose, because the pursuit is something you crave instead. You can believe that isn't normal, but it IS relatable and something all of us on /toy/ still do everyday.The cure or treatment is actually making time to play with your toys. Whoosh them around, imagine stories with them, arrange them on your shelves, and/or try all the poses they can do. By doing this you'll actually see and feel the value of what you bought. When you ultimately decide you have to get rid of them, think about ebay, goodwill, a Book Off if you have one, or extra off-site storage just for the sake of clearing out your room temporarily and see all the space you have all along. The reality is that you will buy toys again, but at least your mind will be clearer after all that.
>>11660145Now target is putting everything that i want behind a street date for the 11th despite the fact they have it in the back. Why do they want to lose money? Why are they waiting until over a week into janurary to release stuff that shouldve been out at christmas time. Why are they so litigious about street dates why do they want to piss customers off?
Is haslab dying? Seriously wtf is going on? It's been nonstop fuckups for like the last year
>>11664049Yeah, it's only Mexico that is effected by this, and only people that bought the deluxe.
>>11664726OK then fuck it. I don't see a problem.
>>11664726Hmm, sounds more like one of the drug cartels intercepted the whole batch for whatever reason and now these guys are trying to blame Hasbro.
>>11665542>>11664726It sounds like it's most likely a case of Mexican tariffs will cause Hasbro to take a big loss on it.
>>11663406All corporate PR statement sound like chatGPT. It doesn't really matter. It could be a human fake message or a chatGPT fake message either way. We won't know until toy sites start widely reporting it. And if it's just Mexico affected they may not even do so on english speaking toy news sites.

How do artists go about copyright and trademarks? I know the Japanese have some sort of free pass when it comes to Comiket and WonFes but what about the rest of the world? Do artists ride on the line of parody and such? I know if they get big enough they could get legit collabs and stuff
After doing some research I've come up with some skills that would be useful for sofubi making>Draftmanship/sketching/artist>Sculptor >3D modeling (zbrush seems most common) >Airbrush painting >Networking Any others that should be included?

Does anyone sell models/model kits of any of the vehicles from Avatar? The whaling boats and submarines from the second movie especially, haven't been able to find anything
>>11661375The only kits I know of are for the valkyrie shuttles. Your best bet is probably to seek out Japanese "garage kits."
>>11661375I'm sure somebody's working on 3D printer files
I've only seen the crab subs as a toy. I agree that big boat plane hybrid would be a sweet kit.

can someone help ne put together a parts list for Grimm's armor? It's pretty basic but also black....
>>11665807Do you have a better pic to work with? I'm sure there's ways to approximate an armor set, but I'd have to know what it looks like first..
>>11665898It's not very complex design. Most important is the helmet I guess with the feather or whatever that is and the rest varies from fan art to fanart but he's inspired by the dark souls 2 guy I think
>>11665904>>11665908Looks to be fairly generic black knight dude, without painting easiest option is the Warrior/Revenant Legionscon set. The chest armor is more jagged and rough looking, but it has an accurate helmet option (minus the feathers), uses the newer and more articulate build and will be easy to pick up as his retail version should be going up for sale in the next month or two. https://sourcehorsemen.com/mythic-legions/entry/the-warriorIf you really, REALLY want to get into the weeds of things and start popping and swapping and up various bits and pieces, then you could probably make an almost exact build of what's shown in these fan arts. It would be way more expensive and involve tracking down some potentially rare parts from popular figures, but it's not entirely impossible. I still would suggest starting with the Warrior figure mentioned above, but then you''d also need the torso from either the Valiant Knight or Sir Elijah, including their matching belts, then you'd probably want the pauldrons from the Unknown One as they'd line up nicely with the art. You could also swap out the Unknown One's shins to get that jagged layered armor look over the Warriors more sleek, traditional shins. The cloak would probably be custom, though I'm sure if you googled around long enough you might find a decent fur cape in black. Off the top of my head, the Mezco Conan Barbarian weapon pack comes with one that fits Legion figures pretty well, you could always try to hunt down that set (Legions figures can use those weapons as well, assuming their hands haven't held any larger weapons prior). As for the feather, Magnus comes with a thick black feather plume, but if you want a whispy hair one you'll have to go custom. The old Toybiz LotR Lurtz figure with the bow shooting gimmick has a pony tail bit you could easily pop off and mod to fit. Shouldn't be too hard to find a junker on ebay, and he's a pretty decent figure in his own right, even with a hair cut.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/themightyorbots/mighty-orbots-deluxe-combining-12-figure-1985-edition/40 years later, Mighty Orbots gets its toy (maybe).
>>11656722Yeah. The two girls eat up every frame of animation they are in
>>11658246>I'd be interested in modern toys where they can nail the proportions more accuratelyI dont know how they could do the two girls without massive parts forming if they did that
The only way to really do a 'complete' version would be to have two sets of robots - action figures for the human-sized 'civilian-mode' Orbots, and blockier combining versions (which do appear in the animation, but very sparingly outside of stock footage).Kickstarter's up to 76K now. Anyone think it'll reach goal?
>>11668518>Kickstarter's up to 76K now. Anyone think it'll reach goal?Maybe. If its on the radar of bbts. They sometimes put in a big order to push a preorder over the line. They've done it with the ghostbusters haslabs. Then slap it on their website with a $100 slapped on top. What is it, $300 for the actual combiner? How many more do they need to go over?
>>11668555Looking at it, they need to sell 78 more. Yeah, that seems possible.
