>>11678181it's weird that they didn't made more color schemes considering how fast the UM ones sold out. They didn't even restock them.
>>11678181>>11678215Joytoy haven’t made any mark II figures, have they? I’m surprised they didn’t do them with the Iron Warriors to tie in with the new starter box. Hopefully when they get around to the Salamanders or Death Guard we’ll get some.

>nephew loves lego, specifically lego star wars>Promised I would buy him a few lego sets for his birthday on friday>fastforward to tonight>checking out what they have in stock at walmart and target>almost $200 for one droid mtt>$150 for the attack of the clones at-walkerWhat the hell.
>>11674602>Complain about price of Lego>Drop $1000 on that for a kid's birthdayI'm with you on not cheaping out on stuff that could make a kid happy but come the fuck on the 3 in 1 castle for example is a fantastic decent size Lego set for just like $120, get two of those and you have a good amount of Lego for the kid to play with. Fuck I don't spend $1000 on myself for Lego, it's nice that kid gets nice presents but don't blow your wad in one go.Stuff like Lego is better and more thrilling when you can slowly collect sets over time as opposed to "omg I have a hueg collection now"
>>11674602holy shit, i hope the kid is responsible
>>11673464Genuinely, go for the 4+ sets. The piece count, price, and complexity are more similar to old Lego than the new stuff
>>11673464You can only buy LEGO on a 40% discount these days if you want to pay a normal price. Or become part of their shill network and get free sets in exchange for 5 star reviews.
>>11674602You’re gonna create unrealistic expectations for this kid when it comes to presents, geez. And if he ever finds out how much you spent and grows up to be an asshole, I can only imagine the conversation>you spent $1000 on legos, why can’t I have the Playstation 17?
I dont want to ruin a general, so ill post it outside. I've fucking had it with Lego. It's never the prices that bother me, it's the fact that their builds comparably suck to what Mega Construx has done better. For the latter, we get better, more posable minifigs, distinctive bricks and parts, and much cleaner builds that do as much to avoid relying on part reuse. Lego's minifigs are the same 5poa shits and still use parts that are are only versatile because they HAVE to be, resulting in a blocky inaccurate mess that pays little tribute to its source.
>>11674731>Nah, instead you are going to ruin the boardAnd I thought OP was being dramatic, sheesh!

I have that Megablocks Krang. He's great. The little turtle figures are also very fun and poseable for their size. I also bought their tecnnodrome and totally failed in building it because I'm apparently an idiot.

Toji was literally the only figure I was looking forward to and now I had to cancel it. I can't even imagine how scammed I would have felt if it didn't leak. They want 100$ for this....This is it. NEVER again will I preorder from slopdai. Nothing but garbage and scams. Worst import line. Worst QC. Fucking embarrassing to shit something this bad out, fully knowing how much people wanted it. FUCK Bandai.
I just simply don’t like glorp because he spams esl shit everywhere. Stay outta my general asian.

>>11677346The poster on here I would have expected to turn killer long ago would have been Dio with how much he glows up this place, but I guess he will always be all bark no bite.
>>11677379there is no shill, it’s just whenever people are having a normal discussion, glorp ruins it by saying it’s all a samefagging shill when he is the biggest samefag on the boardIs there a chance grapeape can actually get rid of this loser?
>>11677493A lot of the worst spammers are all from asia, only a few of them are from america or europe, region flags generally helps fight against spammer problems more than anything else, or testing bringing back the ip counter, besides just device blocking the few asian’s devices and banning on site for further appearances since last year’s leak showed they were fully capable of doing such.

>>11677385I think that ship sailed long ago, back when the crossbone gundam got a fucking HG kityou all know bandai and sunrise make gundam series as toys commercials, so there would be no point in making a series for something that already has lots of merchandise out there (maybe a MG renewal?)the problem is the crossbone is a mold milked to fucking death, sure it is cool but it is not the only suit in the series and sadly, it seems the jovian empire has too much of wacky designs to even be considered (only the final boss from Steel 7 got a HG kit with that hand MA thing >>11667152). I can only see the Amakusa getting a HG and that is a big maybealso, yes Tobia is so based he makes every other gundam MC look bad, especially after how shitty the last series have been in that regard:>NEVER bitches or whines about his situation>slowly climbs up the ladder from grunt pilot to ace>he piloted ALL the crossbone gundams>battled DEERS>disregards all the newtype fuckery as mere bullshit>saved the fucking earth by destroying a fuckhuge colony laser in wat was a suicide mission>saves his girl and even has a family with herComment too long.

>>11674574any improvement? wasn't the MB Hi Nu kinda shit in the first place?
Have any of you ever had to touch up a figure with paint?
To elaborate on >>11678824, I have an idea that might be kinda out there.I'm really into the End of Eva version of the 02 design, but only one figure exists and it's like 20 years old and pretty expensive online.So I'm considering grabbing a RD Eva-02 and painting some of its parts to match the End of Eva version. After comparing the 2 it actually appears that the EoE design is closer to the rebuilds than I thought, so sculpt wise there wouldn't need to be too many adjustments.Is this idea too far out there or is this feasible? I've painted and sculpted gunpla before, but I'm not sure how similar the plastic of RDs is and I wonder if there's any precautions I should take since they're not designed to be customized like that.

>>11675909I have a 9-60 ratchet but I don't have LR. I'm looking at the prices online for it and it seems a bit much for 1 inch of plastic.

As long as the quality is close enough to real and the price is good I'm fine.

>>11678848>You just need to store soft-pvc in some open, ventilated container for some monthsDoes this actually work? I imagined they'd be leaking plasticizer constantly, since, you know, it doesn't stop being PVC. I love blast effects but the idea of them shredding the figures scares the fuck out of me.>soft pvcGot me thinking. ARE there hard plastic blast effects? Them being bendy has no appeal to me at all.
>>11678570Hey, that's the Gobot character homage guy.
>>11678852There's only so much plasticizer they can add, it's bound to stop offgassing at some time.>hard plastic blast effects? Bandai makes some but only a small number can be attached to TFs directly. And even if you get them on, these don't grip onto the shallow blast effect peg as well as bendy softpvc ones.
Low angles are fun
So HLJ is getting worse and JP shipping is getting out of control so I've decided to ship out my PW just to get it done before I have to start paying fees on them. Just asking if anyone has experience doing the same, did you bite the bullet and ship all at once or is it better to split them up?If you're wondering mix of mainly model kits, but also a few figures like figmas and nendos.And I guess anyone else pulling out of importing because of this?
>>11673116there is no country that doesn't have tariffs for the u.s. it automatically starts at 10%
>>11673091me personally yes, I costed out what Snail Shell's Kitsunebi Senki Honoka would roughly cost from Amiami compared to my local store.for me, post the shipping and import taxes it would land at roughly 140 usd (I am not American so its not what you would pay) and locally they'd sell it for 150 with free shipping, and the local store is easier to work with in case of issues, so yeah local stores from now on, I'm only gonna use Mandarake and maybe Amiami for in stock second hand stuff from now on and even then that will be rare.
>>11672257Even splitting isn't great.Just shipping my kits alone would be $300 at this point. (I want my fucking snek, man.)I am not pulling out but I have gotten VERY selective. I have started using western retailers for the lines that they don't overcharge too crazily for like Figuarts and impulse buys are over.
>>11672257ended up looking up the storage costs, and for me with a lot of cheap kits with small boxes it wasn't too terrible, so not shipping all at once and take a small fee might be a viable option
>>11672257Just shipped to the UK and EMS and fedex are basically the same price for their shipping right now when it’s generally pretty normal on other sites like Amiami and zenmarket.

>>11677856>the internet is either dead or hidden.TRUTH. AI-aided searches do more harm than good now. It seeks "the most relevant," which it's programmed to focus on e-commerce as the most relevant. But still my point stands that a lot of 60s Joe collectors have simply passed on, and took their sites and interest with them.
>fucking yojoe.com is basically abandoned nowIt was sold in 2018 by the people who owned it to a data-harvesting site. 3DJoes.com has taken over as the 3.75" fanbase's "main reference site" since then. The people who sold out and sold Yojoe have since disappeared because I guess they figured out that the fanbase hates their fucking guts right now.
>>11677856The Classified series killed off the old schoolers for the most part. Just a handful of us left. The 'deth of da line' actually happened for us in quiet, and it was a multitude of reasons, mostly from Hasbro. I wouldn't count out those annoying, exclusive, custom making faggits who made spin off forums and didn't want any 'outsiders' in from ruining the community. People splintering off and being cunts. Shitty mods at CustomJoes and HissTank did plenty too. Shills had also went too far, pushing crappy movie figures and repaints as great. One of my favorite sites were JoeDios and Checkpoint Alpha. Now both gone or basically defunct. The hobby for most of us eventually imploded and got too costly even. Why do we need remakes in another scale again? We got older with a lot of memories and great figures we've already collected, so most of the future of GI Joe lies with the newer breed of collectors.
>>11678428*To correct, I'm sure Classified has a lot of old schoolers in. It has to since they're clamoring for cartoon characters we never got. I like Classified, I'm just not committed to getting a new scale, and I'm sure a lot of others feel the same. Figures look great though.
>>11678428The problem is that there's just not enough new fans to fill in for the old fans leaving.Other fandoms regularly replace oldfags with newfags. TMNT, Marvel, DC, etc have a constant influx of newbies entering the fandom. They create new communities (discord, tiktok, etc), fill in to the old communities (forums), and they're as vibrant as they were in the 00s despite how much things change.GI Joe died in 2016 and it made a small recovery in 2020... and that's about it. Forums were a little bit more busy, but not in the way that otherp laces are when new products are being released.I think there's way more activity when it comes to the comics than there is for toys, and that's super fucking strange since the comics side always felt lax compared to the toy side. The comics were a bigger hit with fans than the new movie or video games. And despite the comics hitting it big with fans, that hasn't translated into more toy discussion.In fact, there seems to be little crossover between the comic and toy fans. Toy fans seem to keep to themselves and are mostly unaware aware of what's going on in the current comics, unlike before or other comic based toy franchises. Who knows if the comic fans even buy modern GI Joes, since their discussions are heavily nostalgia-based.And Hasbro isn't helping, because they aren't cross promoting shit like they used to either.

Haven’t seen a proper Nerf General on /toy/ in a long time, so let’s bring it back.This is a thread for discussing modern Nerf and foam blasters: new releases, modding, performance, internals, darts, comparisons, and why Hasbro accidentally cooked again (or didn’t). A lot has changed since the last time these threads existed, and there have been way too many genuinely good blasters in the past few years to ignore.Post your loadouts, favorites, teardown pics, hot takes, thrift finds, and mod questions. Stock or modded, Hasbro or third-party, foam is foam.No airsoftNo gel blastersFoam onlyBe civil, stay on topic, and remember: it’s still toy guns
>>11675438Oh wow.....it's hideous. It's like they just stopped making the blaster halfway through and said a copper pipe is good enough. I mean, I'm sure it's performance is stellar, but style wise....that's pretty yikes. >>11675449Airsoft was never welcomed on /toy/, it's a topic that's been kicked off this board for as long as I can remember. It got pretty bad for a while with how often Airsoft stuff got bounced around. There was even memes of people trying to find which board to start Airsoft threads on but the mods would just move em to a different board.
>>11673781It's not in a particularly great state to be honest. Hasbro has all but driven the Nerf brand to the ground, constantly introducing new proprietary ammo dart types in an effort to prevent cross compatibility because somehow in their heads that means more sales. Not to mention the constant reskins, almost 70% of the N-Series blasters are Ward reskins. And then you have the other brands, they're great for being aimed towards hobbyist and likes to standardize ammo dart type as well as accessory mounting points and having excellent performance. But not much about them are appealing for kids who are the ones that primarily play with dart blasters. The ceiling is too high for most kids unless they know what they're doing and who are only in the minority compared to the rest. Dart blasters just don't have the same appeal they use to anymore.
>>11675449I think a big factor is 3d printed guns and even off-the-shelf ones that reach their levels of performance overtook the discussion so hard that it really started to feel like the threads were just airsoft-lite more than anything else. combine that with the flagbearer Hasbro doing Hasbro shit and killing their brand and youtubers dropping off like flies, there really isn't much to discuss. "member hammershot?" can only carry a thread so far.
>>11675533>>11675739Yea, the super "high performance" Pro model stuff or constant comparison to home made 3d printed blasters more or less nuked any possible discussion of foam blasters. They're really not as fun anymore and none of these new ones have any cool but useless gimmicks or themes. When you aim for performance you'll eventually start to hit plateaus and everything will just start to become homogenized and boring. There's a reason why so many Nerf Blasters are just "Stryfe but with extra junk", because it was such a solid platform to build around but none of those additions actually made the blasters better. It's also what killed the Rival line, once you get into the realm of 200 round full auto blasters that are easy to load and work off re-chargeable batteries, where can you even go from there? Everything just starts to retread old ground and come up short in comparison where performance is concerned. I was hoping Nerf finally bending and accepting the Half Dart in their little Franken-stryfe release would help spur them into a second renaissance or sorts where they'd go crazy making weird, wacky, sometimes impressive half dart blasters. Lean into the new ammo type to make Blasters they couldn't make before. Instead they just stopped trying entirely.
>>11676148I'd be a lot more down to clown with nerf's hard-on for periphery ammo if they were still doing interesting stuff with it like mega/early rival but ever since Ultra it's just been one dud after another.
So I guess sparkster wasnt so exclusive to the Konami shop. DNA toys has the figure up on their web page. Konami sold out of these. I wonder if DNA will honornUS orders.https://premiumdnatoys.com/collections/catalog

I didn't even know all their Jim toys came out.
>>11674934Of course it did, it's made by 90's Konami.
>>11674942They haven't officially, apart from the one exclusive that was released before all of their stock ended up on AliExpress. They are all listed as coming soon on their website. Also every other toy they had up for preorder before their year of silence has completely vanished from the website. No Madballs wave 2 apart from an old product announcement page they have probably forgotten here:https://premiumdnatoys.com/pages/madballs-wave-2Madballs vs GPK, Mars Attacks, and Care Bears pages all exist with "this Collection is empty."https://premiumdnatoys.com/collections/madballs-vs-garbage-pail-kids-wave-1They are still listed at other retailers. I wonder if those will still happen or if they will need to cancel them and refund customers (yeah right) because the license expired while they were in toy company purgatory.
