>Finally, a good Goliath figure that can share shelf space with other figures.>it's 1/6 scale>comes with all these pointless accessories and a statue that also couldve been a separate figure which only raises the price furtherBeing a Gargoyles fan sucks
>>11813703Terrible comparison. it still comes with an articulated Rush. Bass got articulated Treble too. Also Metool's helmet is removable so you can pretend its defending.
>>11813703Terrible comparison. That's thing:Japan which means anything it does is okay. We're talking about thing, which means anything it does is evil and bad.
>>11812793>>11812789I agree whining over too many accessories as a general rule is retarded, but I also can't stand pointless accessories that don't need to exist. Like his little broken medallion and unbroken medallion. How about make one... That can break apart? Hold it together with some fucking magnets. It's a toy, it should have cool features like this. Also 10 barely different hands. I am so sick of this trend. Make accessories that fit into a universal hand. If a wrench's handle is a little thicker than normal and a guns grip is a little skinnier than normal, great. Who cares. Make them both fit in one hand. It's a little different for a character like Spider-Man where you should WANT to have fists and web shooting hands and a splayed wall crawling hand, but every character under the sun does not need a dozen hand options. Make like 2, MAYBE 3 sets that all are for dramatically different things.
>>11814591>Also 10 barely different hands.According to the product description, it only comes with 4 sets of hands. I think they repeated the open set that are already on the figure. Fists, weapon gripping, and open handed/clawing are all pretty much essential. The other set seem to be for holding the Phoenix Gate, so they are kind of superfluous.
>>11812789I do wish the dog creature was articulated. This world needs more articulated non-humanoid monster figures
I just wish he wasn't so smol but for 20 bucks, can't beat it.

>>11814240>>11814245Looks nice but Nia looks out of place with the PSG backdrop
>>11816917Yeah, but not to the same degree as a Hot Wheels car. Plus, the only "diecast" part is the chassis. In that sense, they're pretty much spiritual successors to the Jazwares All-Stars Racing cars, though, you do get more variety, thanks to them being based on the TSR vehicles.
>>11815135Oh man that sucks. Not sure what would work to cover that kind of finish.
>>11815135I have the 10 inch Metal Sonic from Jazzwares that was pretty similar in metalic sheen and scratched him up when trying to remove a smudge. I went to hobbytown and had the warhammer guys give me some advice. I would do the same for paint matching and by having them show you how to drybrush.

I love Lego and I have a shitload of boxes in my wardrobe but the problem is, they smell like shit. I have identified that it's specifically the Lego boxes smelling bad, and as the time goes, the smell is getting worse. I don't want to throw them away though, because they're nice and colorful and might be useful in case in the future I want to sell the sets.I took out the boxes but there is no mold or any other visible damage.Any advice?
>>11811784>2. Place a plate filled with baking soda if you're using a box or try to get a clean sock filled with baking soda if you're using a bag and put them in the same container and seal it and leave it alone for like a day or two. If they still stink leave them there for a week.this isn't going to do anything, because there's going to be no interaction between the baking soda and an object in an air tight environment. there's no air circulation going for a reaction to happen, and even if there was, it would be almost nothing.Its like putting a crayon in a box and expecting a mosaic to appear on the inside the next day.Also, bags and boards to reduce the effects of air, humidity and acidity on comic books has been around since the 80s. Bags themselves were being used since at least the 70s.
>>11811859Ok. Listen here homo: the baking soda absorbs odor. That's what it does. It works. Otherwise my stinky comics would still be stinky.Secondly, yeah bags and boards have been around since the 70s, but those were unbuffered and made from polyethylene which eventually yellowed from the acids. It wasn't until the end of the 80s that we got "archival" mylar bags that keep humidity out. Both formats are good but Mylar is just much higher quality and is manufactured differently.
>>11812294>Otherwise my stinky comics would still be stinky.I bet they still stink, because that stink comes off from you and you're used to your stank.I used to work in a university library and i was trained to archive shit, since they were moving shit from the old library to the new one.I coudl go into the details of how shit works, but so I'll be brief: smells come from PHYSICAL shit laying ontop of an object. Your evaporated sweat, your shit particles, your skin flakes, dirt, bug shit, is all laying on your books and boxes that needs to be physically removed.Like i said, you can get rid of a LITTLE of the smell, by circulating air, which helps dry out the moisture that undoubtedly has saturated your paper books and cardboard boxes. This helps way more and faster than if just sticking shit into a box with no air to help dry your shit out.The backing soda helps remove moisture, but it would be exponentially quicker if you had a small fan to move air around in the box. Just leaving out in the sun outside would do the same shit in just a few hours. It'd actually work better to, since UV light will also kill any bacteria and molds.So by drying out your books/boxes, you're still leaving all the physical smells on your papers, but now there's next to no humidity to carry the stink lines to your nose.Also, buffered inserts were used since at least the 80s. It's ancient technology, but was little used due to the price (20¢ isn't much until you have 100-1000 books) until the comic book boom happened in 80s and enough people using it brought costs down to the point they started advertising that shit in the early wizard mags (1990?).
>>11812672>I bet they still stink, because that stink comes off from you and you're used to your stankLmao they are comics that I buy on eBay. Sometimes they come in stinky because some smoker in the 70s owner them.Yeah I think Wizard used to have the ads, probably that Comic Buyers Guide magazine and of course The Overstreet Price Guides since they're the same company that owns E Gerber.
>>11812672Almost forgot to make this post:You need to physically clean your boxes/books/whatever to actually get the smells off, because those smells comes from physical (usually literal) shit laying on your box/books.First dust off your your smelly shit. Use a dry towel, sock, or paper towel to do this. Then get a clean paper towel, completely soak (entirely wet but not dripping) it with 90%+ alcohol and proceed to wipe down your box/book/whatever. Wipe the box on every side, every square centimeter to make sure you clean every little spot. If the towel gets dirty, you can fold it to use the other side that's still clean or use another towel that's soaked with alcohol. Then clean that shit again and let it dry afterward.Avoid doing this with cardboard or paper that isn't glossy. If it's not glossy, you can use baking soda and use your hands to scrub the surface. Dust it off afterward thoroughly, using a towel/duster/whatever.There's other stuff you can use, but it isn't much better and costlier. For books, there's buffered papers you insert inbetween the pages that draws out oils, moisture, and even kills bugs.I use alcohol on basically every used comic/graphic novel, magazine, and book i buy, whether they smell or not, because who knows how many trips to the bathroom it took the original owner to read it

hey gays i'm into lego because:>looks cool>just follow the instruction, hard to fuck up even when you're high>can be done when tired and unfocused, which is most of the time for methe problems are:>it's expensive>it requires a lot of spaceI bought a yo-yo just to try out something different but the problem is, it requires energy and concentration which I don't really have because of undiagnosed mental issues. But I really like the idea of spending lots of time with just one small toy.Any suggestions?
>>11815992Too bad about the concentration because otherwise I'd say learn an instrument. The ultimate frustrating fidget toy.You could get a finger board and then make or buy cheap ramps.

How do you deal with yellowing plastic? My Toy story collection Buzz started to yellow. Not so bad as picrel, but bad enough to annoy me. Previously I tried several methods.I used a peroxid paste hair product and sunlight. It worked remarkably well, but only in a few cases. I managed to whiten a G1 Metroplex nicely and also an O-ring Cobra commander, so it worked on blue plastic too. Unfortunately in several other cases it didn't work, guess it really depends on the type of plastic.My other method is to simply paint the figure white. It works for smaller figures like GI Joes, but I'm hesitant to paint a big figure like Buzz Lightyear. I also tried hunting down junker figures and use them to replace yellowed parts.I just wish there was a good solution that worked every time.
>>11815945>hit it with retro-briteI've heard that Retro-Brite actually ends up destroying the plastic.
>>11816383who knows, i've never seen anyone actually come back and show any proof of that.
>>11816460This is a sticking point for me honestly. I genuinely wish there was more chemical analysis done on the aging and preservation of toys. You'd think the way hippies piss and moan about wanting less plastic ending up in landfills there would be more call to have fewer toys thrown away because they haven't been restored.
>>11816383The yellowing is a result of UV degradation. It's already in the process of being destroyed. There is no reversing this. The options are either to let it keep degrading naturally and just accept that it looks bad, or attempt to bleach it as gently as possible so it looks better while it still has some life left in it. The problem is you can easily over-bleach it which will accelerate the degradation, but if you are willing to take your time and experiment a little it should last as long as it would if you ignored it. You don't need extra additives like retrobrite uses to make it bleach faster, and you don't need to expose it to extra UV light for the process to work. You just need peroxide and a little heat and patience. Placing it in sunlight or using a UV lamp is just a way to heat it but people are stupid and think that because UV rays caused the problem then UV rays + a magic potion the learned about on the internet will reverse it.>>11815930>it really depends on the type of plastic>I just wish there was a good solution that worked every time.Unfortunately the first statement is true so the second is wishful thinking. A lot of yellowing in toys and consoles is UV damage where peroxide bleaching works, but not all. Some plastics just can't be bleached with peroxide, and a few can react very horribly because it is a powerful oxidizer. If you're lucky someone has already experimented with the specific thing you want to restore and published a detailed guide on how they did it, but odds are if they have there will be someone who claims to have followed their guide and fucked it up, or worse someone will respond with their own guide claiming it's better when it's actually worse and they're just an idiot spreading misinformation.
>>11815945Retro-Brite is just hydrogen peroxide as a brand.>>11815930BE GENTLE. 50% peroxide solution with 50% water. Use the weakest (5% peroxide) so you don't damage the plastic. A UV light bulb works better than sunlight because it's consistent and doesn't deal with clouds or a moving sun.

>>11818573>man i really want the purple outfit and the hatSame. That's my all-time favorite look for her. I know the coat would probably be a pain in the ass, though.>>11818606I mean, this arc was literally 20 years ago for those of us watching from the start. That said, her boobs in that gif don't look quite as big as the figure's to me, not that I have a problem with that.
>>11819355You should definitely rewatch it.
>>11819358Maybe when it's finally done. Honestly, chest size in One Piece seems to vary as wildly as larger characters' height from scene to scene, especially earlier on. Can easily find images from the arc like picrelated where she's much smaller.

What's the actual reason you collect action figures? Not you public relations answer or your cope answer. The real reason.
>>11799341It's true, you know.
>>11815703kek
I'm not stupid enough to collect toys for the most part, but gacha fake gunpla are neat and affordable and modest desk additions. Sometimes I'll pick them up and make them pew pew at each other. I'll tell anyone this who asks because being embarassed about something is what makes it embarassing.
>>11815243They are consistently perfect. They're perfect because they're Japanese. American things are bad because they're American. God I wish I had yellow skin and slanty eyes!
>>11815995Why are Vulcanlog toys bad?Why is SHF Seiko loose?Why is D-arts Charizard just the worst but Blokees uses the same design but improved everything?
Do you have a favorite Littlest Pet Shop, anon?Fox 807 and Hound 808 have a special place in my heart. I've recently started collecting them again and like some of the newer ones. I've heard that people don't appreciate the neon colors on some newer molds. Personally, I'm just glad we're out of the age of stickers for eyes, or pets that can't stand on their own feet.Natural colors are best, but sometimes neon makes the figures pop and I'm not sure why there is so much hate around the idea.A list of all LPS by number: https://www.toysisters.com/toy-guides/littlest-pet-shop/g2-littlest-pet-shop-by-number/Blindbox code guides: https://lpscode.carrd.co/
I liked LPS in the 90s before it became bobblehead shit with giant KAWAII UGU eyes
Why does collecting /toy/s carry the stigma of "virgin loser"?
>>11815894you mean transbian
>>11819931Absolutely not. One of the most virulently transphobic people I know actually.
>>11820042A lot of LGB, especially lesbians don't like being lumped in with the T and feel like they've led to more homophobia, so that checks out.
>>11798973Because women think you should be spending that money on them and can't stand seeing a man happy about anything that doesn't directly involve them, as they have to make everything about themselves.So it's their way of shaming them into becoming their own pussywhipped lapdog!!!FACT!!!
