Does it bug anyone else how much Kenner dropped the ball on the T2 line? The Endoskeleton is basically the only genuinely good figure in the whole line. I know it was common practice for companies (especially Kenner) to get creative with the designs, but the sculpt work and gimmicks basically ruin every figure. The Exploding T-1000 and Power Arm Terminator are tolerable but do weird things like making the T-800 sleeveless of the T-1000 half silver. I can understand what they were going for with the T-1000 but it would have made more sense to give him the power arm gimmick and make his alternate arms his various weapons from the movie (or make some up like a giant axe). Even as a kid this stuff bugged the hell out of me and I had no interest in the line beyond the Endoskeleton.It's just such a weird drop in quality given how amazing their Alien and Predator lines turned out.
>>11660300>There just weren't many characters in the movie to turn into toys.I guess that's true, and I know "boys don't buy toys of girls" but they couldn't do at least one Sarah? They did Ripley and Vasquez from Aliens. Maybe a "High explosive Miles Dyson" or "Tech Gear Miles Dyson." Also did they only have the license for T2 specifically? The did T2 3-D, doing Kyle Reese from the first film would have been better than doing a whole bunch of repaints.>I think they're pretty good for what they are.I'm trying to appreciate them for what are, and it's easier to do as an adult, but I just hold Kenner to such a higher standard, and maybe that's unfair. I think it hurts more because we still haven't gotten a decent Terminator toyline since.
What the fuck was Playmates thinking sculpting the upper teeth as a separate piece? It almost totally ruins a pretty decent figure. In fact why do so many companies sculpt the head with the mouth open? Kenner did it, NECA did it initially. It's weird.
>>11659556i always hated that t1000, thought he looked like joe pesci. Power arm t800, john conner, and the skeleton were the best, I didn't stick it out for the better ones, I got deep into crash dummies
>>11660326Back then it probably was a last minute scrapped action feature.
>>11659556T-1000 figure should have had the arm gimmick and come with normal arms, hook arms, blade arms etc. Or maybe he can look normal but turn silver in hot water. Seconding the giant mechs from the future scenes. Those would have been great.
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.
>>11660344There are days where it's hard to rationalize what I spent to friends and family. It's even harder with "YEAH I GOT THIS FIGURE ALREADY, BUT THIS ONE HAS A BLUE SABER AND A SLIGHTLY-DIFFERENT COLOR OF HAIR!"
>>11660344there's a bunch of power of the force oddities, there's a proto stormtrooper with a viewmaster like feature drilled into his head, it kind of works, also potf Chewbacca was originally supposed to be flocked
>>11660344I do like a subtle variant! The original Beast Wars Cheetor comes in green-, blue- and red-eyed versions.
lot of news today for FNAF toyswaves 3 confirmed
So do none of the Toy Chicas come with the black eyed beakless face? Seems like a major missed opportunity since that is her attack animation and coolest look.
>>11656736when and where can I get it

>>11659259Do you have link to a specific video? I found the RSC review but he didn't compare it to the Actic Gear RSC, he compared it to the Actic Gear Next Burglarydog which is significantly different from the regular Actic Gear Scopedog. However, I noticed that the lower torso hatch of the Toyrise opens, which Actic Gear doesn't do.

The bastard child of a Bionicle and Gorgonite.
I see they now branch into Bayverse too, I saw many Transformers G1 AMK Mini Series figures at my local store, are they good? I might get them. I like that they are cheap and wonder if the quality is good.
>>11657895They should've go with a darker color plastic for that Megatron. It looks unfinished in that picture.
>>11657895Nice
>>11658036Agreed

OK honest opinions, please. I had gotten a shit-grade Bandai FF8 Edea as a place-holder until a better one came along, (and it did). So now that I have two I decided to paint the placeholder one all-black in place of the Bandai paint job. Ignoring the frayed capes and missing crown pieces, does it look better in all-black or how Bandai painted it?
>>11658675Sorry about the shit picture. For some reason my camera phone wanted to focus on the high point of the base of the dress then blur everything else.
FITHOS
>>11658675Feels like a mix of them would be better, the original paintjob gradient starts a bit early and ends very light. Conceptually I like the right hand side more.
>>11658682kek
For me I exclusively collect domestic live action capeshit figures
Transformers mostly. Like I think the only thing that comes close is Hot Wheels cars as a kid, and I think those might have been surpassed in number by robots at this point.
>>11654238A bit of everything. Marvel, Dragon Ball, DC, Pokemon and Kamen Rider. I only buy characters that I absolutely love.
>>11654238My collection when I was a kid:>Sylvanian families>1/12 dollhouse stuffMy collection now:>Sylvanian families>1/12 dollhouse stuff>figma>shf>revoltech>snail shell>sentinel>basically any figure from a show or manga I like that will fit with my dollhouse objects >sometimes transformersI just really like setting up scenes with my tiny furniture and such.
>>11654238Primarily collect Monster High dolls. I've also got a few statues of certain characters I love. Tried collecting action figures for a while but realized I'm not really into the small stuff so only have a handful left.
>>11654238Half random figs from pop culture - Mars Attacks, Universal horror etc.Half random generic non-IP stuff (XesRay, D13) or figures that at least looks generic. I quite like plain figures, like a simple lizardman or a skeleton.

Hi /toy/, I have a 25" NECA Balrog from 2004 and over the years it has started to warp and loosen up at the leg joints under its own weight. I'm wondering what would be the best way to keep this thing standing.>drill peg holes into bottom of feet and create a stand that keeps the legs from spreading apart>glue all leg joints (the articulation here is pointless anyway)>heat gun to attempt to fix the warped tail and/or warped legAny ideas?
>>11659373You've been trolling everybody in this thread that has an unfavorable opinion about the Balrog for days. You've been trolling the entire board all Christmas because you are sad and miserable. Don't pretend to be the victim now because you got some clapback on one of your shitty trolling attempts.
>>11659382>anyone who disagrees with me is a troll, and my opinion of everything I hate being shit is absolute!You are such a miserable person. It really is a good toy, and it's worth fixing loose joints to. And even the best-quality toys do get loose joints. You're acting like that's something exclusive to NECA while selectively ignoring that the toy is nearly a quarter-century old.
>>11659374>But you're ONCE AGAIN doing that thing you do where you decide that your opinion is how everyone should feel about a given item.I'm not the one attacking people because i disagree with their opinion. I'm telling the person attacking me that he is a miserable sack of shit. The person that, FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON, decided to tell me I'm full of shit because my experience with the figure matched someone else who had issues with it.
>>11659382You really need to get off the internet. It's rotted your brain.
>>11659385shut up man
Just wanted to say that finally nintendo started caring and randomly put dozens of official plushes on their store in europe. I just bought a few, are they made with good quality? They are pretty cheap, 35€ for a giant kirby
>>11651637I know the build-a-bear Sanrio plushes have longer arms and legs than their usual designs. Their Kuromi also has a plush tail, and she has the usual seam on the back but no zipper.
>>11655325Thanks, this is the one I was looking at.
I keep seeing these 'RollyPet' plushes at stores and thinking I might get one. I eventually saw one that I couldn't resist, pic related.
>>11657746I love it. I want to squish it. Excellent choice anon
I love my Blue Archive plushes.
What is there even to say about bionicle, except that it was intended as a 3 year theme, that quickly ballooned out of control?Why did we do a 2 year flashback arc?did the guy who wrote it really know the whole thing was a robot from the beginning? if thats true how would the end of year 3 had been changed?why is Makuta Mata Nui's brother, when the two are completely different species?is the red star really supposed to be a failed organ transplant?what happened on the southern islands, and why is it so mysterious?why was the mask of time and light so important? we shift all their power of to the mask of life, during ignition anyway.What was the glatorian reboot supposed to accomplish, if it carries all the baggage from ignition?
Did anyone else just like bionicles without the lore? like my favorite concept of them was just a bunch of robots waking up on an island. It was fun and mysterious; I'd see a cool scene from a commercial and that's all I ever needed.
>>11651846I am sure people liked toys as toys
Someone explain Bionicle to me. I'm looking for pure 2000s feel. What should I watch? I think I don't want a summary but rather see/read the entire thing. What have I gotten myself into?
>>11651865I know a lot a trannie fags like it. Other than that, It is pretty cool.
Hello there!
Show me your dollhouse. Pic related, it's my dollhouse before I turn it into something worth owning.
>>11659258It needs stairs so they can get up to the upper level. Also decorate it with art. People do make mini-paintings.
>>11659371Oh, it's not staying the way it is now. I have much more expensive and better dolls and furniture to put in it. I also have big plans for lights and exterior work to make it look like the home alone house

What's kinda disappointing about the Black Suit Tsuna is that his Dying Will Pill canister is a pre-order bonus, itself a semi-iconic item because he uses it a lot more than Reborn shooting him.
I guess I'll repost my nendos here. I ordered Saya, so Madoka will finally have a logical pairing
