what company makes the best fidget spinners these days? I'm thinking of getting one for my autism and ADHD.
Just get a Lego minifig that you like.>Can move the arms>Can move the legs>Can rotate the hands and head>Can pop on and off the head and legs
>>11727045you kinda just have to grab any number of dedicated "fidget" toys and find the one that works for you. my friend swears by the worm/snake thing but personally I rely on pic related
>>11727015>my autism and ADHD>more fun>fidget.I collect due to my OCD.Not an Autists so don't ever fidget.
Get a skill toy if you want to fiddle with stuff. You can easily penspin, manipulate coins, or play with begleri if you have a desk job.
>>11727718"the worm snake thing"?
McFarlane Toys is reducing their points of articulation for new articulated figure lines like the NHL line. Your thoughts?
>>11724633so garbage?
>>11727513spawn has some stuff coming up soon and savage dragon and hellboy should be cool
>>11723903Todd really should just make fucking statues, he clearly just wants to make statues not action figures
Wow a red platinum of a character to promote new comics that isn't in the look that character has in the comics. Genius.
>>11724468>And since I am not a kid playing with stuff in the backyard I don't care about "maximum posability."your condescension doesn't make sense. kids like to action figure smash, they don't that much about articulation.

I noticed that deepdiscount.com (known for blu ray sales mostly) also sells SHMA, Hiya, Ichibansho and other kaiju toys. I found the SHMA Mechagodzilla and Rodan set (Makuhari Battle) there for $110 after coupon. I bought mine last year for $160 and enjoy it, so for $110 I recommend it to anyone still undecided.
So who's looking forward to Megaguirus?
>>11734913It should have been Orga.

>>11735120This but unironically. Guy was blasting comments sections on YouTube, spamming here, and apparently flooding reddit too. All he did was attract all the wrong attention. I guess we know who to blame for all this.

Like haven't bootleg transoformers been a thing and going strong for years now? Plus, China is like the wild west of 3P shit so I see this more as a temporary hiatus than the full death of 3P.
>>11735133I don't think reddit and youtube comments were what alerted bandai kek, they've always known what was going on and waited until someone (LS Studio) was dumb enough to plaster copyrighted material on their packaging then used that as a reason to go scorched earth on factories and 3p companies.
>third parties are dead lol. Lmao even. Bandai always wins.
Picked up a few things from the Toy Hunters Toy Show in Markham! wdyt?
>>11727885Better pics-the yellow was actually a color offered on real Altezzas but it was very rare. I prefer the metallic gray though, it seems much more fitting for an executive car.
>>11726493>>11726759They make an actual Fat Thor action figure, sis.Why so surprised?
>>11726493>there's a hot wheels of the fucking Dumb and Dumber dog vanDamn, this is on the list of "obscure shit I wanted as a kid that I assumed woud never exist", but here we are. Like, I don't want it anymore, but I feel obligated to buy it just to make my 8-year-old self happy.

>>11732414I love the MK4 Supra's stock oval spoiler, but I heard the Hot Wheels that will come with it will have a tuner spoiler on it which ruins that set for me. I really wish they could've retool-el the MK4 cast with an oval spoiler finally, they have been using the same cast for 10+ years
>>11733719I miss Halo Construx like you wouldn't believe. I'm glad I snagged a bunch of MkVI Spartans when I did so I can repaint and modify the armors at my leisure.

>>11734783NTA but it's worth noting alot of MCX sets are in deep discount on amazon these days. Bite now while you can, god knows they'll never be back.
Anyone remember these things?
>>11728410Did you stick around for their 2009 revival?
>>11728410I know that feeling. Bionicle G2's cancellation has made me extremely adverse to ongoing retail toylines.
>>11728750I got a few but by that point i moved on. Honestly i resented mighty beanz as a kid and hated them because i felt they abandoned me when i needed them the most. I even smashed all of mine out of revenge for the line ending. I was a deeply lonely and troubled kid and later diagnosed with aspergers in highschool to no ones surprise.>>11728752I hate lego so much for not bringing back bionicle.

>>11734616Oh yeah it 100% is bad on the back. In all honesty, i rather have that over theweird ass cuts that makes it look disjointed from the front. They couldve easily remedy this with a movable piece on the back at this price but what can we do right?
>>11734589Having a cutout for the back of the shin in his ninja pants is pretty brilliant.
>>11734643What's funny about that is that they actually were some of the first companies to do it at the time, almost twenty years ago. I remember it being pretty novel when they did it with their original Gurren Lagann.
>>11734643>>11734758Yeah there are few tricks they chose not to do this time. GL and a few robots Revo had the hinged panel and it was very simple too, not that it made a drastic difference but beats having a gaping space behind the leg. Even recently Juri has hinged covers behind the knee joints. This is something I'm noticing more and more with Revoltechs today. There seems to be zero interaction between sculptors. Some engineering choices are ignored even though they are appropriate for the sculpt. It's like they each try to reinvent the wheel anytime there's some issue to be handled. It wasn't that noticeable back when all they had were a few revolver joints to work with. YGO line was the worst but they eventually took notice and changed some aspects, like having ball jointed hips.
The recent Revoltech female figures are cute and well-made.

>>11718269I have a 1954 Godzilla toy that scales with HO model trains near perfectly. Anyone have any suggestions about what trains I should set up while I play with it?
>>11729305You're gonna want to look into the Ginza Metro trains. Kato has some in N-scale, but there is HO/OO scale from other sellers.
Smokey Joe arrived today so I can go ahead an take the body off and start properly measuring Lady to fit on it. Also bit the bullet and got a M1 Kato set from the local train shop along with 2 Bachmann engines "The American" and a UP Prairie.
What's the recommended glue to use for affixing small parts?Instructions say "rubber cement", but that's not really a thing in current year, beyond tyre repair kits.I've got Tamiya glue, but it melts plastic. I like the idea of non-damaging glue that can be removed without damage if needed, like hot glue, but the size of the applicator (glue gun) is much too big, leaves stringy trails, etc.
Watched "The Bullet Train" (1975), and then later "Bullet Train Explosion" (2025) and it was actually a pretty good modern day movie/sequel and I can recommend a watch, just skip the first 60 seconds as they show an action real during the opening credits of all the major shots of action which take place during the movie, which is kind of a spoiler. Your bitch ass better not watch the dub either.Anyway my /toy/ point is, at various stages during the film they use toy trains as irl demonstration/planning tools. They start with Plarail, move on to Kato N, and then finally Kato HO complete with track and everything, moving under its own power. I found it amusing and I was also able to point at the screen and go "I HAVE THAT"
Anyone hyped for the 2026 collection? They are going back to basics.
>>11727188I miss ERTL, too, but they were no saints, either, when it came to proportions. The motorized Thomas trains were actually a subline of Tomy's Plarail trains(which had been around since the 50s), so they were, naturally, designed for synergy with their pre-existing catalog.
>>11726038Cool
>>11719193I love this shit

So I’m trying to identify a fast food toy I once had from either the very late 80s or the early 90s. All I remember, was they were bugs and were transparent plastic. I think they might’ve even had such cups on them. This is the caterpillar one that I had that had a bowtie. I don’t remember which fast food place had it.
>>11728939>I had cootiesEWWWWWWWW!
>>11729069at one point, you had cooties, too
>>11729063This is probably your best bet
>>11718071it looks like a super mario enemy? reminds me of a desert themed spiky one
>>11731212OP here. No, it wasn’t Super Mario. There was also a grasshopper one too.
They literally have Pokemon tier lineup but they always make toys of the same 4 characters. Why? It just seems like a waste of potential to me, they could make lots of money.
>>11728498Disney is dumb duh
Ultimately Stitch could stand to be Disney's answer to both Pokemon and Sonic. Many parallels between these properties exist from autist appeal to character power sets. The thing is Stitch on his own, just like Pooh or Mickey, makes so much money they never will bother to put in the effort to expand things beyond just the focus on him and maybe angel. It should speak volumes that they jettisoned Lilo a few dozen times.
>>11728499I wouldnt say "dumb" as much as I'd say callous and cynnical. They know they could do more but they make so much money as is they wont bother.
I would totally fuck Angel up the ass
They considered a plush line. Beanie plush protos of the cousins made it to ebay. Look on worthpoint.
I rarely see anyone posting pics or info about thesethere sure is something magical about the VF-1 seeing how many renditions has had over the years
>>11734154We've already got the VF-19Kai and VF-19P.
>>11734181Yeah but those are the bad 19s nobody wants
>>11734218Ok retard you can't ask for Frontier shite and then clown on 7.
>>117342227 sucks shit
>>11734266We already know you're a tasteless midwit anon no need to keep further removing doubt. The only truly bad Macross is II and Frontier (TV not the movies).
Just completed my set this morning. Unfortunately I still have 4 to get for my nephews :/
>>11722751That's the one minor knock against the new robots they just have marketable child friendly faces and not cool totally not Bionicle faces still better than the changeables 1989 cursed ice cream cone face.
>>11723070>still better than the changeables 1989 cursed ice cream cone face.What, you dont want that pervy Frenchman popping out of your ice cream?
I just saved my sanity and bought the last two I need on ebay for the same price as buying the meal twice. Now I can sleep during the crocs promo.
>>11723070>they just have marketable child friendly facesHonestly it'd make sense a successful business would have happy friendly faces though
