Rate this gun I made with dollar store stick-together toy pieces. It was not easy. I tried a few different ways before I made this one (I originally wanted to make a rifle). I think it turned out okay. The pieces get loose pretty easily and just trying to find the perfect length of pieces is impossible as you may notice.
3/10No trigger and I don't appreciate the eye of the wood spirit staring at me.

>>11289731>>Hot glues fabric to plasticThat's exactly what the factories do too.
Why the fuck does every god damn figure have indents in their ankles that make their feet sit in either of these positions. Sometimes I just want the figure to stand normally.
>>11294764ntabut the only figma joints that have become loose is the lower legs i've partsswapped 9000 times wich isn't necessarily intended, and the old hinge wristjoints were very flimsyrest is all completely ok even if some joitns are tighter than others, heating them up can often kind of reset things too
>>11296140to specify, not the kneejoitns that "bend'but rather the peghole in the lower legs got a bit looseygoosey so they kind of want to swivel a bitagain, i was very rough on these and can probably put some non-acetone varnish in them to remedy itand I fidget with my toys a lotthe old revoltechs I have with ratcheted joints? those get loose as fuck though
>>11296140Sounds like you don't own Figmas where they're holding any accessories or doing action posesThe more weight there is, the more stress and wear happens. A little girl will take nearly forever to wear out vs Guts who's wearing armor over his many physique and holding a sword that extends the load on the joint even more.A knee joint will take longer to wear out than an arm or elbow joint, since knee joints tend to weight distributed evenly. It's mostly lined up and down, thanks to balance to keep them standing up. Whereas an arm joint being at 90°, 45° or even 15° is being more stressed out 2-20x more, like if you had them swinging a swordThe joints keep their position through friction AND a mechanism, where the joint is held in with a post to keep it tight (also more surface space). So the friction is held in way longer because of a simple mechanic. Whereas the post hole (i assume, since that's my problem too) you're talking about? That's going to give away sooner, because it's purely friction. The plastic wears away and there's no force to keep it tighter. And take into account materials. Revoltech joints tended to be made of smoother/glossier plastic all other brands, so that's less friction right away.And since Revoltechs tended to be manly, armored beasts, of course they're going to wear out faster than a Figma, where most of the brand are skinny little girls like pic
>>11296258I mostly have dainty girls and they don't carry fuckhuge weapons rightMy legs tend to wear down easier as balancing them you put more pressure on them and due to the heavier hair of some of mine they carry more load so I have mostly the opposite problem.I have way to many figmas yet never use any of their stands. The heaviest accesoiries are relatively normal realistic sized guns or swords. at the heaviest or maybe carrying eachother.
>>11296147I wish ratched joints were still the rule for Revoltechs. Miss those damn clicking sounds, but I agree that mine got quite after a decade of usage.

Someone is selling replica sets of the 12 talismans from Jackie Chan Adventureshttps://www.orzgk.com/product/shisanqushouhuo-studio-jackie-chan-adventures-twelve-talismans-ornaments/
>>11299431Why do you retards keep advertising this crap?
>>11299431Buy an ad
>>11299431>Product Material: High-toughness polylactide>$75.00 pretaxI shouldn't have to point this out, but like that other anon said, this is actual garbage. Cheap 3D printed junk is fun, but it's still junk, and should never have a price tag that high for quality that low. Maybe if they were cast resin or had some light-up feature, I could overlook the lack of show accuracy and general low paint quality, but this is the least amount of effort to trick you into paying for nostalgia.
Welcome to 2025. While Mattel and Jazwares fight over the 7" era of WWE vs AEW there are plenty of other fish in the squared sea these days.

>>11296484They stock that often at your stores? Must be nice.
>>11298087Cody took a year, CM Punk took a year, Jade is still not out yet
>>11298087I thought that AEW was fast tracking the figures for WWE kek
>>11299165Feels like Jade disappeared pretty fast>>11298223They skip a lot inbetween. Superstars is maybe one chance per case. A floor display sometimes helps and it gets restocked a bit. The first MNW case with action figure WWE2k24 code made it to the floor. Cleared out of figures in less than a week
>>11282885there's a 3rd trump now up for orderhttps://www.hookedontees.com/product-page/old-glory-trump
What were these called in the US? I've seen a bunch of copycats in the aftermarket in the early 2000s, but this mold seems to have disappeared since then.
>>11288736I remember there was a set of toys in the early 90s that were random things that transformed into bases/playsets and had these guys. I had a gun that opened up and it was a whole scifi fort inside and it had a few of these.
>>11286457What's the scale on these? They actually kinda look wargame-suitable.I'm currently looking into finding cheap fantasy minis and keep getting fucked on the scale but tehnolog 28mm minis seem like a bargain and I actually like the scale, just tricky to get a hold of because they are russian.
>>11296573They are life sized, pain in the ass to set up.
>>11288736>enemy forces>They're just like us with a different coat of paintI didn't need this commentary on the nature of war...

>>11300102That's the symbol for bongbucks
>>11300113You're right. My mistake. I feel stupid, but I had just woken up, so I'll blame that.I just got back from the post office to pick up my HLJ private warehouse shipment. Only thing relevant to this thread in there is Rania, so into the pile she goes. Oh, and Plamatea Guts, depending on how loose we are getting with the "and Friends" designation. I'm gonna let him ride Arcanadea Elena, so I guess he's a friend of a friend of a Shinki?
>>11300102Also remember that HLJ's payment processor has the worst forex rates I've ever seen, while Ami just shows the money market rate as an approximation. I have HLJ set to display in ten as well as pay in yen. I can look up exchange rates easily enough if their baby-mode settings are going to be so far off.

Is there an actual relation with teenagers and adults who own plushies with childhood trauma?
>>11297965Is your son special needs? You should probably ask a therapist, specially regarding the need to hold your hand to sooth him.

I'm 34 and still have the same Teddy I had since I was a baby. I just don't see why I should throw it away.
>>11298400Hopefully you keep him repaired and clean at least
>>11293254I have cptsd from childhood and I carry a plushie with me everywhere. on some days I carry two if I'm feeling really anxious. I'm also autistic though I don't know if that makes a difference
holy kino
>>11298001yeah it sells you on the toy but the toy doesnt hold a candle to cartoon argus
>>11298018Yes and noThe cartoon designs are pretty bad in hindsight. The plot is just really interesting, conceptually. The dialog isn't even that great. It's just the idea that two races have cheated death by putting their brains into machines that control the robotix is pretty wild. And humans got to pilot them. It would be like diaclone was released in the US unchanged. That's the 80s though. Lots of crazy wild ideas, so so execution. Late 90s cartoons sucked when they made the shift to school cartoons. Animation got better but the ideas were pretty bland
>>11297412I disagree completelyThere's already 8 billion shitty transformers knock-offs, a building toy based around walking space-vehicles is much more interesting than another shitty robot dinosaur action figure
>>11298091I'm just surprised the toys were technically being sold and supported up until 2019.
>>11296882Ah, thank you!

Lego dragon ball z will be my favorite theme ever
>>11296028I had this Unit 01, bought it from Suncoast back in 2001. It was hangin around with Palisades Resident Evil figures and Irwin Dragonball Z figures... I think there was a Spike Spiegel figure by Kaiyodo too... it had a base with the rose he dropped. There was a big figure of Sachiel as well... god I miss those days.
had the ghost in the shell and Tenchi's ryoko figs from the same time. There was little point in opening these back in 2001 because most of them were barely above statues.
>>11297913Suncoast and Media Play etc took a big chance on carrying Japanese stuff (Bandai, Kaiyodo, etc). Glad I was there to see it happen. I was also glad Media Play was the only place to give store credit on sealed merchandise without a reciept LOLLLLLLLI would buy Walmart DVDs and flip them there as a 'I got this as a gift. Can I get store credit?" a few times.After getting $300 in store credit I felt like a kid in a candy store!!
