Ok for the price this is tempting but lack of torso front/backward movement kinda ruins it. But look how happy officer Nick looks. I'd prefer better movement so I think I'll pass but that's actually really really tempting.

Why don't you just buy domestic? >_>

I offen wonder what kinda crap Asian people import from America.

>>11677439
Another note on the "free shipping": they have a .jp site and a .com/international one. The latter pretty much has baked in higher prices compared to the domestic site to make up for the free shipping they offer so regularly.
Anybody who's worked with forwarders and proxies should do the math and see if it's better to go through those. This may end up being cheaper, but doesn't have to be.
If the forwarder undervalues, that'd save you some of those taxes and duties, too, but obviously not everything.

>>11677907
Find me a shop that sells Japanese only Gashapon items individually and I will.

>>11677948
Last year when I used their site, the free shipping was absolutely worth it. I was buying items worth $1-3 a pop and my total order could be as low as $20-30 bucks, so even if their price per item was "higher" I didn't mind. Throw in the fact that this site is the *only* site I found that had a deep and frequently updating stock of the items I was looking for, and was selling them at non-absurd prices (for the most part, ebay prices for these things was three times higher) and it was very much worth buying from them.

I'm glad I got everything I wanted back before the changes, because it wouldn't be worth making those small orders now.

....err, but yea, Playmobil. I managed to decorate that Castle I bought! Re-ment's stuff works really well with Playmobil's scale and has much nicer details then Playmobil's accessories. The Castle itself is still missing some key pieces that kind of bug me, but it's complete enough for me to play with and I'm not sure if it's worth investing more money into just to get those last two or three items I really want.

Maybe I'll try and grab some pics when the kid goes to bed, can't get anywhere near it while she's awake because as soon as i start to play with it she wants to play with it too lol.

Yeah, their job was to act and go on promo tours, and they did that job. Now they’re free to say they don’t like the final product and just did it for the money. They don’t need to swear undying fealty to Disney just because they acted in a movie once.

>>11667533
Force Link was such a piece of shit. It was clunky, it barely worked, and on top of that there was no way to update it. They had to release a second version that had samples for the new figures and it would have just kept going like that because fuck you, you're a kid and you don't get to demand futreproofability, now buy the slop.

Somehow Hasbro managed to do this same basic concept 20 years earlier and did it much better with the Commtech chips that came with Episode I figures. Yes the chips were not in the figures themselves but the functionality was much better and you only needed the one scanner and you were set. You could even save up to four onto the scanner's memory, and it had some fun Star Wars sounds like lasers, lightsabers and explosions built in.

The funnel connection was really badly engineered, but otherwise the only real problem the figure has is the paint QC lottery.

The Classified series killed off the old schoolers for the most part. Just a handful of us left. The 'deth of da line' actually happened for us in quiet, and it was a multitude of reasons, mostly from Hasbro. I wouldn't count out those annoying, exclusive, custom making faggits who made spin off forums and didn't want any 'outsiders' in from ruining the community. People splintering off and being cunts. Shitty mods at CustomJoes and HissTank did plenty too. Shills had also went too far, pushing crappy movie figures and repaints as great. One of my favorite sites were JoeDios and Checkpoint Alpha. Now both gone or basically defunct. The hobby for most of us eventually imploded and got too costly even. Why do we need remakes in another scale again? We got older with a lot of memories and great figures we've already collected, so most of the future of GI Joe lies with the newer breed of collectors.

>>11678428
*To correct, I'm sure Classified has a lot of old schoolers in. It has to since they're clamoring for cartoon characters we never got. I like Classified, I'm just not committed to getting a new scale, and I'm sure a lot of others feel the same. Figures look great though.

>>11678428
The problem is that there's just not enough new fans to fill in for the old fans leaving.
Other fandoms regularly replace oldfags with newfags. TMNT, Marvel, DC, etc have a constant influx of newbies entering the fandom. They create new communities (discord, tiktok, etc), fill in to the old communities (forums), and they're as vibrant as they were in the 00s despite how much things change.

GI Joe died in 2016 and it made a small recovery in 2020... and that's about it. Forums were a little bit more busy, but not in the way that otherp laces are when new products are being released.

I think there's way more activity when it comes to the comics than there is for toys, and that's super fucking strange since the comics side always felt lax compared to the toy side. The comics were a bigger hit with fans than the new movie or video games. And despite the comics hitting it big with fans, that hasn't translated into more toy discussion.
In fact, there seems to be little crossover between the comic and toy fans. Toy fans seem to keep to themselves and are mostly unaware aware of what's going on in the current comics, unlike before or other comic based toy franchises. Who knows if the comic fans even buy modern GI Joes, since their discussions are heavily nostalgia-based.

And Hasbro isn't helping, because they aren't cross promoting shit like they used to either.

>>11678486
>>11678433
>>11678428
Oldschool fan here. I collect both as best as I can. We're not going anywhere. That's why the 80s stuff keeps its prices up. That's why all the demand for Classified is 80s-derived stuff instead of it being an entirely new line like "GI Joe Extreme" or "GI Joe Sgt Savage." We're probably the biggest backers of it, especially the expensive stuff. If we're dip-shit enough to spend $2 grand on a shuttle or aircraft carrier, then Hasbro knows they can put us on the hook for a $400 HASLAB.

>GI Joe died in 2016 and it made a small recovery in 2020... and that's about it. Forums were a little bit more busy, but not in the way that otherp laces are when new products are being released.

Forums in general are dying, and getting replaced by the comments section on Youtube, Instagram, and Twatter.

>>11679000
>getting replaced
that's the problem, because whatever is being replaced isn't taking up what was there before.
There's just fewer people posting everywhere and the sense of community is all but gone.... except in comics. There's more people posting about them now than there were during IDW's Cobra Civil War, which was pretty hype.

Also, I'm buying older GI Joe shit for cheaper than ever. So demand isn't as high as you claim. I was actually avoiding buying vintage vehicles due to high prices and even the modern 1:18 figures/vehicles has gone down in price since 2021.

>>11675438
Oh wow.....it's hideous. It's like they just stopped making the blaster halfway through and said a copper pipe is good enough. I mean, I'm sure it's performance is stellar, but style wise....that's pretty yikes.

Airsoft was never welcomed on /toy/, it's a topic that's been kicked off this board for as long as I can remember. It got pretty bad for a while with how often Airsoft stuff got bounced around. There was even memes of people trying to find which board to start Airsoft threads on but the mods would just move em to a different board.

>>11673781
It's not in a particularly great state to be honest. Hasbro has all but driven the Nerf brand to the ground, constantly introducing new proprietary ammo dart types in an effort to prevent cross compatibility because somehow in their heads that means more sales. Not to mention the constant reskins, almost 70% of the N-Series blasters are Ward reskins. And then you have the other brands, they're great for being aimed towards hobbyist and likes to standardize ammo dart type as well as accessory mounting points and having excellent performance. But not much about them are appealing for kids who are the ones that primarily play with dart blasters. The ceiling is too high for most kids unless they know what they're doing and who are only in the minority compared to the rest. Dart blasters just don't have the same appeal they use to anymore.

>>11675449
I think a big factor is 3d printed guns and even off-the-shelf ones that reach their levels of performance overtook the discussion so hard that it really started to feel like the threads were just airsoft-lite more than anything else. combine that with the flagbearer Hasbro doing Hasbro shit and killing their brand and youtubers dropping off like flies, there really isn't much to discuss. "member hammershot?" can only carry a thread so far.

>>11675533
>>11675739
Yea, the super "high performance" Pro model stuff or constant comparison to home made 3d printed blasters more or less nuked any possible discussion of foam blasters. They're really not as fun anymore and none of these new ones have any cool but useless gimmicks or themes. When you aim for performance you'll eventually start to hit plateaus and everything will just start to become homogenized and boring. There's a reason why so many Nerf Blasters are just "Stryfe but with extra junk", because it was such a solid platform to build around but none of those additions actually made the blasters better.

It's also what killed the Rival line, once you get into the realm of 200 round full auto blasters that are easy to load and work off re-chargeable batteries, where can you even go from there? Everything just starts to retread old ground and come up short in comparison where performance is concerned.

I was hoping Nerf finally bending and accepting the Half Dart in their little Franken-stryfe release would help spur them into a second renaissance or sorts where they'd go crazy making weird, wacky, sometimes impressive half dart blasters. Lean into the new ammo type to make Blasters they couldn't make before. Instead they just stopped trying entirely.

>>11676148
I'd be a lot more down to clown with nerf's hard-on for periphery ammo if they were still doing interesting stuff with it like mega/early rival but ever since Ultra it's just been one dud after another.

>>11674938

>>11674942
They haven't officially, apart from the one exclusive that was released before all of their stock ended up on AliExpress. They are all listed as coming soon on their website.
Also every other toy they had up for preorder before their year of silence has completely vanished from the website. No Madballs wave 2 apart from an old product announcement page they have probably forgotten here:
https://premiumdnatoys.com/pages/madballs-wave-2
Madballs vs GPK, Mars Attacks, and Care Bears pages all exist with "this Collection is empty."
https://premiumdnatoys.com/collections/madballs-vs-garbage-pail-kids-wave-1
They are still listed at other retailers. I wonder if those will still happen or if they will need to cancel them and refund customers (yeah right) because the license expired while they were in toy company purgatory.

>>11673458
>there's a whole world you don't seem to be aware of
I agree.
And I own my ignorance but it's more than just a lack of knowledge. I'm not going to collect every possible thing that might potentially interest me or appeal to me. I want swords and space blasters for the toys I ALREADY OWN. I'm actually going to start selling off some of my statues and other collectibles and just focus purely on articulating figures.

I'm not interested in going down rabbit holes and investing into entirely new lines and franchises and the like. This is a good way for me to be prudent since I'd still rather buy expensive red wine and Japanese whiskey instead of a $200 import bit of plastic crack. Dinner out in a metro area isn't cheap, either.

I appreciate you're being interesting and challenging. And politely engaging in conversation. But you aren't going to lure me to the dark side. It's great when people don't just have four walls of crowded shelves all with fifty billion batman or fifty billion spidermen or fifty billion son gokus or waifu/coomer figurines, but actually have a variety. But that's also not going to be me - either of those visions.

I knew when I got older that my behavior as a kid, where I used to save old magazines and collect shitty Duck and other cheap comic books, with boxes and stacks of paper in my childhood bedroom, that I had addictive behaviors. I've gone through spending small mints hording import records while in school, graphic novels and omnibus editions as an teen and also in school to adulthood, steel books and complete season DVDs and BluRay as an older adult, etc. and once I sold all that stuff off, I've never looked back (well, I have an excellent set of digital pirated comics, movies and music but my out of pocket costs is limited to a few external drives).

Plastic crack is just my current crack. And I have a system that works well for me. And I don't really need to go outside it.

>I'm not going to collect every possible thing that might potentially interest me or appeal to me.
man, but sometimes you NEED that specific accessorry that comes from some random McStatue. This is where the majority of my oldass Mcstatue purchases come from.

I dunno if you're seen my Game of Throne McFarlane legos sets that i bought, but the minifigures those building block sets came with sorely needed a dragon to head their army, and this dragon rider is roughly their height.
I've also bought that Matrix stair set diorama by McFarlane, along with their military figures just for their guns. I've bought oldass Spawn movie playsets, because they're ~1:18 scale. I've bought McFarlane Conan figures for swords, thrones, and shields.
Why wait for some company to make an accessory pack when there's thousand of toys that already exist that that come with beautifully painted accessories?

Shit, that Medieval Spawn? 50% of the reason i bought him is just because he comes with a shit load of beautifully painted weapons.

So for me, I'm not investing in a "new line", but rather, it's FOR the my collection that I've been buying since decades ago. I'm constantly looking for cool shit i can use to interact with my collection. I almost never buy something just because it looks cool, UNLESS it can go with my current collection

BTW, I'm polite to everyone as long as they're honest and genuine. Posters like the above poorfag obviosuly just come into threads just to cause problems.

Way too much.
This is the drawer for the HG kits.
For Figure Rise, Megami Device, and other human kits, I use individual boxes for accessories (hands, other faces, etc.).
For pre-made figures (shf, figma...), I use bags with the name written on them.
