Blokees introduced DC characters for their Defender series at the China 2025 Toy Expo - it was all B̶a̶t̶w̶a̶n̶k̶ ̶ Batman, but presumably they will make at least some Superman and Wonder Woman? Or maybe some Arrow, with Felicity and the Arrowcave? McFarlane Toys - Page Puncher Cheetah and Extant pre-orders came and went, even GS is out- Multiverse 21" Batman '66 Batmobile (with NO accessories or figures) will be available for pre-orders Friday- meanwhile, it's been less than 72 hours so the news from the previous, previous thread is still the most accurate, recent news. previous thread: >>11597737
>>11610162more than the rest of the line? maybe.
>>11610162Almost every figure now is underproduced besides the megafigs. It's more like it's massively overdemanded and they refuse to take even a tiny risk to produce a good quantity, even if there is a 95% chance it will sell like Batman Returns figures.
>>11610001I do enjoy other lines but i got burnt out classified and thankfully motu has been focused on cross overs so i just kinda ignored them and focused more on multiverse and trying a couple of snail shell figures out. By focusing on just the figures i want from one line instead of trying to juggle several diffrent lines it gave me a chance to understand my collecting habits and notice things i may not had seen if i was playing around with a variety of figures at once.
>>11610333Do Snail Shell figures heavily stink (literally, smell strongly) out of the box like Hasuki ones do?

>>11610740That’s for the cartoon. In the comics, Dr Mindbender and Darklon invented Python Patrol.And I’m sure in the toyline storyline it’s different as well.
>>11610761The original Python Patrol was just a subsect of of Cobra who underwent the "Pythonizing Process" which is what gives them their distinctive grid camo scheme and makes them invisible to radars. They were a stealth infiltration, espionage and sabotage unit working for Cobra. Copperhead only joined em cause he had too much gambling debt and they paid more for tougher missions. He was also the only named character in the initial run.Personally, use my Classified Python Patrol as Serpentor's personal guard and entirely skipped them when I was collecting the ME stuff. They're a cool subgroup and all, but I prefer my Cobra in their original flavors.

The Kirby is very sticky. Is there any way to counteract that? It's made of that faux-rubber stuff that becomes mush if you leave it in its packaging forever.Also in completely unrelated matters: do you have any suggestions on how to convert the Astro to a Christmas ornament? I have another one I intend to do that with. I was thinking of using the mounting peg somehow but I'm not sure if I can find something that will fit in there that will also work to let me hang it from a tree.
>>11608864>However, all our houses out here have central A/C so my collection room stays quite cool. Maybe that has something to do with it?Yes, obviously.I also wonder if different kinds of heat also have something to do with it. The dry heat of a desert are pretty different from the humid heat of living close to the sea, as I do.
I thought the issue was supposed to be if the Kirby nendos are exposed, you're telling me they need to be removed from the box to be salvaged?Guess I'm breaking the Cafe Kirby and Waddle Dee out today.
>>11608866I think something else is at work here, and that's the temperatures the figure had to endure before reaching your home. If it ended up in a hot storehouse or delivery van it could have affected the plastic even before you got it, and the damage was only obvious after a while.Just speculation, but seems possible to me.
>>11608874Mine was on display since day one and now it's a plasticizer mess. It's just pure luck at this point.
>>11608869Yeah, I've had toys from my childhood that were kept in a non climate controlled storage unit for over a decade and while some of the older stuff from the early 90s is sticky as fuck, a good portion of stuff is still fine. Humidity is what fucking kills all your shit. Makes me glad it only rains like a handful of times a year here.
What are you collecting and why? Do you collect everything from a franchise, company or certain kind (like an animal)? Do you pick and choose? Do you have any rules like you buy only a certain scale or X amount of toys per month? Do you make sure that all your toys fit in together? What are the things you wish you've known before you started? Anything you regret? Not just a single toy but maybe even a whole part of your collection?
>>11608700Dude, these were the shit back then. But my allowance wouldnt stretch far enough to buy them so i only ever had the few i traded for or got as gift.

What if playmates abondons the whole remaster shit, and just makes new vintage style figures instead. The TMNT market is flooded with better articulated figures. I'd rather get vintage style figs of characters we never got, like the rest of the Punk Frogs, Tempestra, Big Louie, 90 movie Casey Jones. I'm even open to new characters or even pull from other timelines. 2003 and 2012 characters in the old vintage style and card art.

So if most toys are bought by adults now when characters like rose tico or Lando or Parker from alien shelfwarm and go on discount it’s not because kids simply don’t like these characters it’s racist man baby adult toy collectors(you) avoiding them

Hey guys. Can we just take a moment to give thanks to the greatest 2nd hand store to exist on their 45 Year anniversary!I've been addicted every since I found it 20 years ago and have undoubtably spent more with them than any other store.Share your Mandarake memories, from the elating wins to the crushing misses!
>>11602395>>11602422>tarrifsDoes that shit keep going up with each order? I notice the fee ia more and more wach time. I thought iynwas a flat rated based on the total of each box.
I finally found a couple of... interesting figures I'd been looking for thanks to manda.
Asidw from general doujins and magazines, I also find they jave a bunch of Japanese books about toys.I found this awesome one about bootlegs of Japanese and American toys.
I find so many various things in my orders
Even have found a bunch of Tokyo Disney stuff.
What’s on the workbench, /toy/?Sculpts, castings, original plushies, 3D prints, dioramas, mods, kitbashes, and repaints are all welcome!Post WIPs, finished projects, ideas, techniques, ask for advice, and most of all, have fun!HELPFUL TIPS:-Invest in a rotary tool such as a dremel for sanding/sculpting, especially a flexible extension tip.-Pin vises for drilling holes can be found at hobby stores like Hobby Lobby and are great for making peg holes.-For soft, flexible parts get Sugru silicone putty and Oyumaru-Hardware epoxy putties such as Waterweld, KwikWood, and PlasticWeld are similar to milliput, greenstuff, and apoxie, can be cheaper some times, and can be found at local hardware stores such as Lowes, Ace, and Home Depot.-Bootleg figures make great custom-fodder, especially if the legit figures are pricey.-Body-chan/kun, Figma Archetype He/She, and Sozai-chan/kun are great base bodies for import-style human characters.-For 3D models to use for editing, the following sites are good to bookmark:Comment too long.

>>11608011Honestly some of the most interesting customs I've seen in a good while. Like how you tried your best to keep to the retro aesthetic with the stylized colors and proportions.
Is there a reason to buy an expensive hot glue gun? I feel like I need one to level up my game but the ones stores in my area have are super cheap 5-8€, Online I find them up to 100€. Now I don't know if they are dangerous in any way but I do not want to "gas" myself or something.
>>11608715i know absolutely nothing about this, but I know about some other similar equipment (airbrushes come to mind) and where the price usually ends up mattering is -clogging rate-apparently cheap airbrushes clog every goddamn few seconds and have to be cleared. and I can only assume hot glue guns are twice as susceptible to that.
Got some kits coming in that use GI Joe Classified series figures as the base. Don’t own any currently, but how widely swappable are the legs on them? I want to use the legs from Torch (same mold as Dr Mindbender and Raptor) on a kit that recommends using Duke or Flint’s torso. Anyone know if they fit?
>>11608715Personally I've mostly replaced hot glue with B-7000 these days, but obviously that's no good if you need it to dry fast. You should aim for something cheap that's at least 100w, I hate the typical design with the tiny little flat plastic trigger.

>>11605353I have never once cared about The Goonies even though my generation acts like it's the most important movie ever made.
>>11607418It's just a fun and comfy movie. I don't think anyone is calling it important.
>>11605353I like the goonies and think this is pretty cool but lego is insanely priced, for $330 it should at least be a complete ship that opens up instead of half of oneI guess typical lego collectors will just drop $660 and stick two of them together though, price is no object for them.
>>11605353I did not, despite my love for the Goonies. However, might as well post this while the thread is still up.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Scu81EW4UC8

Apparently the Man o' War from Air Raiders is ludicrously rare and there are no videos of the thing in action outside of the commercial
Takara’s Super Best Jushin Liger figures. Acquired this pair recently and they’re a great time. Still want to pick up Liger’s horsey Begaruda.
>>11606050The packaging beats the hell out of the figure .
>>11606079The packaging is sick (like everything Takara made for that series), but the Liger is pretty awesome. Loaded with metal and very articulated for the time. Here’s my old beat up copy that got me into the line.
>>11606079>>11607492Head switching gimmick is fun. Complete figure comes with a shield that unfolds into wings (or a sort of goblin glider as it was occasionally used in the anime) and a sword (that’s just a sword but does sheathe neatly into the shield)
>>11604228Most vintage releases between 1995 and 2005 dont have alot of online coverage for whatever reason. Y2K remains a major blindspot as far as toys go.
THE RULES:-We have e-mails for a reason. USE THEM.-Be sure to have PRICES (with photos preferably) in your SALE listings - NO "feeler" posts, just post the thing with a price.-Ignore price-policing posts, as someone will ALWAYS complain. E-mail the seller and communicate accordingly if pricing is an issue.-I'll save you the effort: check Mandarake, either for pricing (if selling), or for availability (if buying).-Don't shit-talk buyers or sellers without evidence.Previous thread:>>11568703

With the show's 35th anniversary spawning a lot of new merchandise, I figure it's worth staring a thread to discuss it all. First up is a Speedy model kit from Bellfine.
What was this show even about?I remember everything happened very fast, episodes seemed to be a review of last episodes paradoxically enough, and... their armor... are they robots or some shit??
>>11601488Yes, everyone in the show is a robot. There was something of a chibi mecha fad in the late 80s/early 90s in Japan. In addition to SD Gundam you had stuff like Wataru, Musashi Lord, Iron Leaguer, and Pizza Cats.
>>11601103They have said that these eight will be at a lower price point, presumably because they don't have any big, deluxe accessories like the cats in their battle armor did.
A couple more nice photos of the Bellfine models:
