Was it really LEGO's worst theme? Or was it simply a case of wrong place, wrong time? Thought the mixing and matching of limbs was novel enough, does wear thin after an hour, though.
>>11623550get a new gimmick
>>11617177Galidor? More like GAYlador!
>>11623593Bionicle had no studs either but they did well
>>11624293Bionicle had its own building system in tandem with Technic and made use of reusable parts
>>11617177From what I recall, the story was boring, the characters were lame, and while the gimmick itself wasn't a bad idea the execution left a lot to be desired. While swapping parts was fun enough for a bit, the characters and pieces being so wildly different meant that most of the time they looked coolest in their default forms, which contradicts the whole point. I had the red bug guy because I thought his head was cool, but even when he was built he just felt like a clunky mess of awkward parts. In different ways both Bionicle and Xevoz did a far better job at what Galidor was going for. Bionicle was a far better building toy that also functioned as an action figure line with its own lore. Xevoz made far more appealing characters with parts that were more fun to swap and vague enough that they could be interchanged into more cohesive designs.
>>11621324I mean yeah, I agree but the loli thing was a bad way to make that case.
>>11621392no

>bought a set of mcfarlane figures and literally all of them have stuck jointsIm fucking tired and done with this shit
>>11613687classic NECA guy
>>11611783shouldnt have to, especially for mcjewlane's exorbitant prices
>>11615766McFarlane has lost the DC license. Their Spawn and whatever else they make (Witcher for Netflix since I see those remaindered at Ross for like $2.99 all the time), probably also is greasy and sticks, but their customer service sucks ass.
>>11620204It takes longer to whine about this than it does to just heat up the joint. This happens all the time with imports too. Hell I've opened marvel legends with stuck joints
>>11619206I sure hope this shit is bait, this is what happens when designers/production engineers don't get customer feedback
Should I get him one of these Disney Labubus by Popmart instead? My wife thinks Labubus are demonic. These Disney ones are made by Popmarrt and they cost just as much and I think they’re a lot cuter. I wonder why they arent more popular. I just dont want the kids at school to think he couldn’t get the brand name toy….
>>11618833Buy him an Uglydoll clip-on
>>11621171How do you think they escaped the post-war genocide?
>>11621163Good! He's begun pilot training. We're starting with something easy before moving to Mobile Suits
>>11618833I keep on dancin

Marvel Universe Avengers vs X-Men.Much as I like my new Rogue, she doesn't fit in with the late 70s X-Men figures I have. A shame we never got a classic X-Men uniform Shadowcat to complete the early 80s X-Men roster
>>11615522Isn't that Hawkeye the Dark Avengers version, bulleyes ?
Why is Avengers VS X-Men depicted with old designs?
>>11615655Not OP but no. Bullseye's Hawkeye suit had long sleeves.
>>11615522Is the camera flash supposed to be blinding the figs? Kinds off putting bro.But yeah shadow cat is something I looked at getting but the selection is poor, same with warlock.
What are the best Alien and Predator toys? Does Alien Earth have any good toys? Or Predator Badlands? I only see Funko Pops...
>>11624617Yes.
>>11624566Wrong. It does have an accurate head.
>>11624626There’s plenty of videos and reviews that point out the inaccuracies
>>11624626If you say so, troll.
>>11624634There's plenty that are wrong, so, deal with it.
Having revealed himself to be Guntuber Justin Taylor, Devil Z none the less continues to lead the Decepticons in their battle to conquer the Earth! Thread to post all things Transformers related; someone else can post the copypasta that I don't give a shit about!
>>11625758Why are you so retarded?
>>11625758>>11625760>>11625779Anon doesn't know how to properly add the general name, which is why it's constantly invisible. What an asshole.
>>11625623I wouldn't mind getting a Tripledacus too, but I'd need the Telemocha Motorarm as the OG has weirdly fragile black plastic, IIRC. Also they never reissued DJ for some reason?
Actual new thread:>>11625879>>11625879>>11625879
>>11625423>>11625615idk, Tripredacus' goatee really ties the figure together.
If you could make any toy what would it be?
>>11613631based, same here. What a great manga
>>11613095We never got dragoon-mode Legend of Dragoon figures. It's been on my wish list for a quarter-centure with absolutely no possibility of ever getting them.
I'd love a RE line by Figma or Jada. I really want a nice beefy 1/12 scale Nemesis with modern articulation.
>>11613095Just a really good DeathWish figure
Some figuarts or figma Hellsing figures I’d be happy with Anderson, Seras and Alucard but a nazi vampire troop builder, a templar troop builder, the major and Intergra would be all must-buys for me as well Seras would get a lot of mileage too because she could come with the blue police uniform tan Hellsing corp uniform & red vampire uniform
franchise so successful it kills off every attempt at trying to replicate it
>>11617796Singapore.
>>11617796y r u so mean 2 me
>>11617785
>>11617771most of these were planned to have the limited run they did and not be ongoing themes year after year. Chima was planned to be the next big thing and did well, but Ninjago was too high in demand and had to come back.
>>11620518It’s the creature.
Playmobil x WWE announced for July 2026.This joins new licenses such as Monster High and Barbie.https://wrestlingfigurenews.com/2025/10/30/playmobil-wwe-toys-coming-in-2026/
>>11619609>I wonder what kind of time Playmobil takes from concept to production. WWE moves pretty fast, and "character" popularity rises and falls with the random tide of cheers and boos.They release next July, we don't know the full lineup yet
>>11618958Sorry, i am dumb. I meant signature move.
>>11617986Kino
>>11617986If you remove the tattoos on the Rhea figure it turns into Chyna
>>11619285>their whole audience now is libtard faggots that booed the fuck out of himI've caught a few of the Netflix shows recently, and it's super confusing. the audience will sing the theme songs when the wrestlers enter, cheering wildly.when they start talking, they get boo'd. the crowd starts chanting profanities that WWE hilariously tries (and fails) to edit FU(silence) YOU [NAME].... FUCK (silence) [NAME]!!...and then during the match, they start singing the entrance song again? cheering?the best part is that even the wrestlers seem confused by this behavior. they stand there confused as the audience chants for minutes, and it awkwardly drags on, and they shrug like "do you want to hear me talk, or do you just want to sing my theme song for another five minutes?"
Pic here is the upper echelon of what everyone remembers about 1980s cartoon villains. Some like Tex Hex had a cool look but still didn’t help the BraveStarr show. Overlord from Spryal Zone won but the show isn’t memorable.Could TigerSharks have done better. T-Ray and Soulmate are cool looking but the show needed a scary big bad.
>>11612625T-ray was the most badass of all the rankin bass bad guys. Even with regards to the shortlived toyline he looks the best of the bunch since he didnt sacrifice good looks for the sake of the silly gimmick. It's just a shame the line was buried before it could pick up much steam because it could have really been great. Im still baffled Nacelle didnt try to nab more one hit wonders off warner when they had the chance. Bionic Six, Turbo Teen, Sky Commanders, Centurions, etc all seemed way more interesting than Roboforce ever did.Since we're discussing overlooked 80's limes, where the fuck is my modern Rambo and the forces of freedom collection? That's such an ideal competitor to Classified and nobody's biting.
>>11612664People born in the late 70s/early 80s are the action figure audience. 80's are never going away until action figures stop being made entirely.
>>11612708I think spiral zone is cool. Give it a shot
>>11613006I think secret galaxy did a short video on them.
>>11612797There was no battletoads toy line in the 90s you inbred

>>11628642I'm more afraid of the clip at the bottom breaking.Shit broke on my Tamomo.
>>11628644GSC clear plastic is ass. The clear plastic connection piece to joint of my pixie cracked without me doing shit to it.>>11628448Ive never used the portal effect on my link so that effect is almost entirely useless. I really wanna thicken the ballpeg to make itsturdier but I dont wanna risk breaking it during disassembly like some people have with link due to the weird ass angle the peg is.
she looks alrightbut so far, just a bit whelmed. maybe actually seeing a video with her range will impress me
>>11628735ass pics?
>>11628771None yet. There's like 3 or so pics, and two are neutral and one is in a really bad pose.
>Final Fantasy VII gets Bring Arts of the entire AVALANCHE crew, Rufus, The Turks, and Sephiroth, all in their original 1997 glory straight out of the official art>Final Fantasy IX gets Bring Arts of the main party and Kuja>Final Fantasy Tactics gets a little less with only 3 characters, Ramza, Delita, and Agrias, but it's still something>Final Fantasy VIII gets NOTHINGI'm not a huge FF8 fan, but it's still be neat if they did Bring Arts for FF8 just so we could have Bring Arts for the entire PS1 era. We're so close.
>everyone gets to make 2B, 9S, and A2>because Yoko Taro is a little bitch that somehow feels shame for his past work we'll never get Caim and Zero figuresTruly Yoko Taro is the Anno Hideki of Video Games.
There's a barret on aliexpress. https://a.aliexpress.com/_EvswyTS
>>11623882Yoko Taro has little say over these licenses, let alone its toy lines. Aim your complaints at SE
>>11623847>>11623849Nice Display!My plan at first was just to get my fave team of Cloud, Tifa and Aerith and be content and done, I kinda knew once these figures sold out that they will skyrocket in price if the FFIX Bring Arts is an indicator. The universe gave me a sign to continue as I saw a Barret for sale loose but complete so it lead me to buy atleast the main team to complete them, I think most collectors will go with this route anyways as while Rufus and the Turks are also important, they are only secondary cast and not playableBut I went the extra mile for Zack as he is also a playable character and to make Aerith happy and the bike >>11613129which I did plan to skip also but found one cheap so I bought it tooSE is releasing "new hat" version of the FFVII Bring Arts line so there is maybe hope for a Barret "reissue", for now, get Nanaki asap as I feel he is next in line to follow BarretSince this thread is now on autosage, anyone is free to make a new thread and like what I did in this thread, will post the updated release dates of figures, I will make a new one like always when a Bring Arts from FFVII gets released or if SE somehow proves me wrong that the Tifa Mythril Claws version isn't the last one and announce a preorder for a new FFVII Bring Arts figure >Bring Arts Chocobo FFVII version with different colors and a bundle with a version 2 of Cloud with improved articulation and a smiling face similar to the old 90's Nomura art
>>11623847>>11623849>>11627353sovlThis guy arrived today. He's very good. I also ordered Nier and Emil. Was on vacation for 2 weeks and couldn't post much. Gonna make a christmas diorama over the next week and post more stuff.
Do you enjoy tungsten cubes?
>>11621334maybe the "6" scale keeps the price down" anons are right..
>>11621334No one in here could lift that.
>>11621432i could im built different
>>11622074One in here could lift that.
>>11612805I am interested in getting one because I recently used a paint named tungsten steel. I've seen listings on amazon but some pics had cubes with rounded edges which I autistically hate. I want a proper cube
Who the fuck asked for this, and how did the Hokuto ones sell well enough that they're making Baki stuff now.
>>11621765Quality is good for the size. I feel the HnK ones came with more accesories though like the speech bubbles and effects. Baki seems a bit barebones.
>>11621922>American collector toys were mostly statueshit and McStatues (limited, preposed articulation), but since around 2007, they started getting more and more articulated.And they were still utterly BTFO by Japanese collector toys.>And American collector toys generally are more faithful in sculpt, have higher paint quality,Absolutely not. Hasbro's realistic figures didn't become worth buying until they copied Bandai's faceprinting technique.>more paintMore =/= better. See that Saitama and its pimply paint finish.Also, are you seriously trying to claim those toys in your pic are anything other than complete trash compared to even a basic contemporary Figma?
>>11622026sure is third worlder who just wants to make contrarian arguments for entertainment because he can't afford a hobby anymore
>>11622041>T-THIRD WORLDER!That's all you can say, that's all you can say!> because he can't afford a hobby anymoreI'm not the one demanding everything be shifted to smaller scales and poorfag pricing. Smells like projection to me.
>>11620182>And the DIGAction webste isn't domestic either, so you will pay shipping and tarrifs on that as well.I didn't say anything about that other brand. Only compare prices on any products that are after all applicable fees and duties.
