Lets talk about Tamagotchi Friends and other digital pets :3 uwu
>>11652304Just bought one and so far my biggest take away is that the cell Tama with the eyelashes is kinda hot
Based JYW shipping quickly.
>>11655866What's the name of these?
>>11652980How do you deal with worrying about keeping all those batteries charged and healthy? >>11653002Can't believe there is already going to be a godzilla penC. They only announced 2 new monsters or something and thats not enough for me to shell out more cash after getting both of the colors. Wish they would have waited till 75th anniversary or something and added more monsters. Will probably skip it unless I really like the art on the shell.

What are some of the most absurdly popular "must have" toys in history, /toy/? The ones that cause literal riots to break out over them.
>>11652726Subby is the only "person" I am fighting with. Whereas he has been fighting with no less than 4 people in this thread. Weird how you would white knight for him. Are you guys related?
>>11652724>still no proof that Power Rangers was talked about on a national levelSomeone less retarded than you already conceded the fact Power Rangers doesn't belong in this thread, but you're basically doing the same thing, since you haven't offered any proof of anything. Just meaningless words to try and rationalize something that never happened: Power Rangers being as popular as Tickle Me Elmo or Furby.Also, how old are you and when did you pretend to move to America? Because you have no idea how people used to use mall. People didn't have unlimited entertainment back in the day. IT's not like today where neets like yourself don't even have to leave your house to buy cheetos and high end video games that you could only find in arcades.So if your mommy took you to the mall, you sure as shit would go to the arcade and hang out with your friends. Once you ran out of money, guess where you'd go? any shop that had shit teen boys like: books/megazines/comics, toys, video games, music, and movies on VHS, because you can look at things you can't afford in malls.In 1993, i sure as shit didn't have the money or a drivers license to impress a girl, so i didn't need to avoid going to nerdy shit.BTW, i've taken GFs on dates to TRU/KB and even conventions to hunt for toys (and other nerdy shit). They have even hunted shit for me on their own, because that's what someone who becomes infatuated with you does.Of course, your infatuation with me is driven by hate, thus your contrarian posts, huh? Well, girls who wanted to know me better would pretend to like the same shit i do, even if they thought it was cringe. ... most girls who have done this never actually became real girlfriends though, because i think it's pretty pathetic to fake that shit and probably wouldn't end well.
I’ve got sbubby fatigue. When is he gonna leave.
>>11652858Do you know how third hand your account of living in 90s America sounds? It's like you saw Saved By the Bell or Boy Meets World and assumed that's what America was really like. It's really apparent from the tropes you go on about that you get all your experiences second and third hand.

Is this ever coming back?
>>11650414Bandai will never stop milking Adventure so even if they never rerelease that one another "new and improved" version will probably be released for the 30th anniversary.I already own that one and the D3, so I'm more interested to see if they make a D-Ark next.
>>11650414whoops wrong pic
If you want to try a Vpet literally, there is some dude who made a Vpet emulator you can download for free for both PC and phone. They're better than the real thing since they can send you notifications when your Digimon requires attention. The problem is that only the original model is available right now. The premium model isn't ready yet.https://k0as7.itch.io/vpet-emulator-windowsandroid-original-v1-6
>>11650414I don't see why. They're pushing new vpets all the time. There's a new Godzilla v2 and the Shambala Pendulum. Obviously not the same, but hey.
What are some toy features/gimmicks which never survive the test of time but you kinda love anyway? For me it's vac-metal chrome. It's a damn shame it tends to flake so easily and is very difficult to restore, it looks super cool. Especially the slightly nonsensical way it was used in 90s/2000s toys (Beast Wars and RID 2001 Transformers, Microman etc).
>>11652249Light piping is a pretty awesome gimmick in toys and miniatures. Light piping was even used in atomic testing to detect the Teller light thats emitted in the first nanoseconds of a nuclear reaction. They sent that light to far away equipment that could detect the "flash" before they were destroyed by the resulting explosion. Probably won't see that feature on a toy anytime soon.
>>11647206"cartoon accuracy" has been a shorthand for "we cheaped out on the deco and are trying to peddle that as a good thing" for years
I actually have some vintage Microman toys.As long as they aren't specifically damaged, chipping/flaking doesn't seem to occur. It's not like the beast wars Transmetals toys where sometimes the paint seems to simply flake off over time.
>>11646543It's gotta be sparking toys and cap firing figures like robocop. Extinguished from the market but man it was fun.
>>11652543Throw in the fact that Hound and Hot Rod were their only anniversary-reissue Autobot cars when there were a ton of good choices to reissue.

Has anyone who owns the HAL from the Armored Core line had any issues with the thumbs when holding the rifle? I've heard that over time the thumbs can bend and break from the weight.
Are there any clear stands that work well with Metal builds?
>>11655903I wouldnt trust any clear plastic stands with metal builds considering how big and heavy they are. Hell I cant even trust the clear connection pieces that comes with my metal builds in general.
>>11655903maybe a caliber wings stand could hold one up, but the adapter wouldn't fit
>>11655261I would not be surprised if that’s the case, but the instructions do explicitly say that you should use a stand arm to support the weight of the rifle, it’s pretty fucking big relative to the figure and physics are gonna physics.
I need good toy stocking stuffers <$10 please gentlemen.
Ban youtubers. Ban Zat.
>>11652593I mean at retail, I don't want to spend a chunk of change shipping every fudging time, sick of that shit
>>11652632There's gotta be a place that has them stocked. Btw, who are you filling the stockings for? Your kids?
>>11652360Go to Dollar General
>>11652360Dragon balls are people pleasers and cheap

>>11653034I'd do one of the City sets then, Speed Champions tend to be really complex with the building techniques
>>11653035Thanks. He has done City sets. He's got the blue car transporter, the orange jungle explorer chinook (my favourite set), yellow digger, several more. I just want to build something with the same bits.
NEW>>11653087>>11653087>>11653087
>>11652991>>11652984Ok but Lego was actually popular with little girls. The new generation of little girls that grew up with shit like Bratz dolls were then the focus for Lego and the reason they made mini dolls. It's just shitty colors for the main sets that can't be used on normal people MOCs. Also how they have their own line of molded animals that just look fucking terrible next to regular Lego. Lego Group has been making bad decisions for a long fucking time (Dreamz, Monkey King) when they are chasing some kind of business venture. They should focus instead on affordable sets for ALL kids.
>>11653058Look up those exact sets and go through their alternate models
More stinky boys edition.
>>11643933Get 2 rust oil washes, one dark one light for metals. It'll kill the gloss and look sick. Just go slow and light. Dark rust first over more areas, then light only at areas that has recently rusted.Any droplets, etc. use gloss varnish.Buy streaking grime oil wash for everything else and streak it.
>>11652889>>11652891nice
>>11652855looks pretty goodwhat a cocky narcissistic fag tho, that dorn. going around looking like that
>>11641574>>11641192the refreshed death guards are simply trash, they feel so outplace with everything else in 40k
>>11652889>>11652891Badass.
Which one is bagging more bitches?
The HomoRapien
>>11651993Goku's at least tries to look like a motorcycle, so there's that.
>>11651993Justice Jogger looks comfy. Stomp Cycle looks like it will annihilate your ass.
>>11651993Surely a better choice for a pack-in figure with the Stomp Cycle would have been Bulma?
>>11652119Little boys don't buy girl action figures.
A place to discuss your bouncy ball collection and show off your highest bounces!
When I was in 2nd grade one of the recess ladies gave us these reflex balls to play with, we would spike it into the ground and see who could catch it first.
Me and my best friend had bouncy balls, our play included forming tribes of bouncy balls with social hierarchy and drama, having them engage in combat, building them mud settlements and having bounce height contests between the tribes.I also had one of these and I chewed it open to free the pikachu inside as I was not allowed sharp knives at that age. This was not a true bouncy ball for the bouncy ball tribe as it contained a captive pikachu.
>>11643590would be better if he did that at night.
>>11643732Good you should feel bad.
>>11650028kek, based chomper emancipator.
What's the smallest, most pathetic toy you begged your parents for growing up?
>>11645367Hex bugs
>>11645367I never beggedI never had pathetic toys although I didn't really have many toys to be honestSmallest, cheapest toys were likely things like knock-off versions of whatever was a hot wheels in those days.
>>11645533I had them too, at one point I did become super obsessed with them as well. A part of it was really just the collection of all different characters, they even got the Simpsons IP at some point and they made some interesting shit like one Christmas they had a race track kinda like hot wheels.And just like that as soon as they appeared they were gone from everyone's memory. Tbh that's also when my toy collecting started to decline
>>11645367This pullback toy duck that wiggles its butt as it goes. I think I got it at a Sav-on
>>11650777My cats loved these.
What is there even to say about bionicle, except that it was intended as a 3 year theme, that quickly ballooned out of control?Why did we do a 2 year flashback arc?did the guy who wrote it really know the whole thing was a robot from the beginning? if thats true how would the end of year 3 had been changed?why is Makuta Mata Nui's brother, when the two are completely different species?is the red star really supposed to be a failed organ transplant?what happened on the southern islands, and why is it so mysterious?why was the mask of time and light so important? we shift all their power of to the mask of life, during ignition anyway.What was the glatorian reboot supposed to accomplish, if it carries all the baggage from ignition?
>>11651200
>>11651202
Did anyone else just like bionicles without the lore? like my favorite concept of them was just a bunch of robots waking up on an island. It was fun and mysterious; I'd see a cool scene from a commercial and that's all I ever needed.
>>11651846I am sure people liked toys as toys
Someone explain Bionicle to me. I'm looking for pure 2000s feel. What should I watch? I think I don't want a summary but rather see/read the entire thing. What have I gotten myself into?
My kid is obsessed with this green poofter. What are the highest quality toys of the Grinch available?
>>11648303 People with kids have no friends because taking care of the kids eats up all our time. Checkmate.>>11648327Google only brings up trash toys. I'm hoping you homosexuals know of obscure figures from Japan or something.
>>11648292The Jim Carrey movie had a surprisingly decent toy line. I had the Santa Grinch as a kid.
>>11648447Fugggg that slutty Who in the red dress.I've never understood the concept of hot glue until this moment.>my coom grew three sizes that day
>>11648459
>>11648447Wow, somehow I never knew these ever existed. Grinch even has way more articulation than I would have thought.
Apparently Storm does still have the ability to release Mortal Kombat figures--they have not lost whatever license they had--as they are reissuing Nightwolf. Does this mean they could actually release new MK figures or did the line not end up doing so well by the end so you'd think they're just trying to get the most of their molds?Also I never noticed how ugly their knee joints are...
>>11641608knees are terrible
>>11641608eh, I feel they could roll out the Cyborgs and Ninjas again and make cash so I'm unsure they be motivated to roll out new figures
I wish Storm would do some more Soul Calibur. Quitting after 2 characters is pathetic. Why even aquire the license and start making them at all if you aren't going to give it a better effort?
>>11651254Reptile is still digitally pegwarming at BBTS for some reason, so not sure on that. I guess they made too many.
Do they still produce the electric Thomas trains without the Disney/Paw Patrol faces? Seems like the classic looking shit is in rape-price territory
>>11641089>they make the jeeta train pull an elephantkek
>>11650714The ironic thing about Nia is that her face isn't "ethnically correct". She's supposed to be from Africa, but her basis was built in England.
>>11651433The real African engine ran out of coal and water and then rusted in place while her African driver and fireman wandered off and within minutes forgot that they had ever been railroad employees.
>>11641089What bugs me about modern Thomas toy lines is that there's never any expansion packs that are JUST rolling stock. They're just making you buy multiple engines to have a train that's longer that 2 cars. It's frustrating
>>11653963That was one thing I loved about the early Trackmaster sets. I sometimes regret not getting pic related because it has the only legit narrow-gauge coach of both it and Plarail.
