Not sure if anyone here bought these, I remember them being posted here at the time they were announced.Wonder why they decided to cancel, not enough orders?Really sucks as these would’ve been the only good options for fans of the film.
>>11697474I stopped using them after that crash too, it's a shame as it was really the last actual toy forum out there with any kind of traffic. Now all that's left is this place...which is mostly a ghost town, or reddit....which is reddit and thus is just awful. I miss old school forums and I hate how "social media" has so thoroughly taken over and killed them. >>11697513Him being some private school nepo baby would also explain why he knows nothing about how actual small businesses work and why any decent small business would choose ANY other method of raising capital over getting a bank loan. Having a few of those myself, loans suck and interest is nothing but a scam. But yea, most of these companies go to Crowdfunding to A) Advertise and 2-ensure there's enough of a demand for those big ticket items. But the first one is always the most important reason as Crowdfunders become "community events", a period of time that fandoms will spend talking about specific products and brands, which is always the goal. The 4H have more then enough funds to make new figures, but what they want with the RPG stuff is to expand the audience. Jumping into Kickstarter, which already has access to TTRPG enthusiast is easily one of the best ways to do that. Also yea, he's a spaz. I don't know how any sane person can drop the line "interest free loans" for ten years and still think it's somehow clever or novel. It's like he's trying to force this meme and has been failing for near a decade in doing so.
>>11698340There's still some forums out there. Toyark and HissTank still have traffic. Plus, some of the Fwoosh refugees started a new forum that's ok
>>11698340>4H totally wanted to delay producing their toys for 4 years and halfassed their releases to raise money, because bank loans aren't supposed to be used by small businesseslmaoSince you're ignorant: the scarabus figure was delayed, the minifigure was split it was supposed to come with it was split to raise money for the scarabus (because a barely articulated 4" figure was the only thing 4H could actually afford), and then the scarabus was delayed even more. This in turn delayed the birds and mythic legion line, AND killed other planned figures too.And since 4H requires to its fanbase to give them an interest free loan to produce their toys, ALL the stock that 4H will sell on their store (beyond what the consumers "preordered"), it falls on their fanbase to pay for it. Hence their figures costing 4x more than what collector figures cost at the time.In other words, the consumer paid for 4 figures to be made for every single figure that they ordered through Kickstarter (~2 is the norm). Since their fans are paying 4x more for what a collector figure costs, they can't really give retailers wholesale prices, hence retailers charging even more than 4H's store. No other toyline does thisSo good job at defending assholes like 4H ripping off their customers and not understanding how a business nor bank works. It's no wonder that 4H felt confident to make an hour long video insulting their fanbase after customers complained that the latest wave of Mythic Legion figures had the worst QC issues for any toy line ever. And this is why the Mythic Legion General is dead.Nevermind you already agreed with me that banks rejected 4H because they deemed their business to be untrustworthy.
Remember when this thread was about Fwoosh cancelling their Ninja Scroll line and not about Subjectanon throwing a tantrum over a toyline he cannot afford?
>>11691298Mmm I only have the Black Ghost from that line so I wouldn't say the quality will be the same, but mine is really with articulation and quality, a bit loose in certain areas but not enough to be concerned.

>>11709915I recognize that I seem to be the weird one here, as your opinion seems significantly more popular than mine, but I still just do not get it at all. How do the hips suck, in a way that isn't about time? There's no pose you can't achieve with them that barbell hips would allow you to do, and the figure will look exactly the same, so what difference is there other than time spent posing them? The only issue I've ever had with them is that by being an asymmetrical piece they won't pose well if facing the wrong way, but again that just comes down to "take extra time to spin it the right way" and is thus still a time-related issue. Let me put it to you this way, if you were an army builder, would you re-buy 40+ stormtroopers for this one singular change? I can understand having a preference for the barbell hips, but I cannot understand having such a strong preference that I'd be willing to spend 800 dollars or more on it.

>Japanese companies continue to innovate and put out ever more impressive toys>China of all places is suddenly making some really nice stuff>Western companies still lagging behindWhat gives? Granted there are some great Western toylines- G.I. Joe Classified is really good and Jada makes some amazing figures considering they started out doing diecast cars- but the West is still so far behind with this sort of thing it's baffling to me.
>>11704885Japanese imports are fucking imploding tho, awful QC and overdesign. I just got my Figma A2 and I can't believe how badly they fucked the arms by making the torso to shoulder joint to be a fucking long stick inside the body. The ab crunch it's also a fucking abomination. Marvel legends ab cruncy looks bas but works, this one looks bad AND doesn't fuckinh works.It's weird because their 2b it's such a simple design with normal ball joints on every cut and do anything that a2 can do
>>11705005Bandai (not the Hobby division) and GSC have both been shitting the best with their most popular lines.
why do you faggots write so many goddamn essays about this hobby?
>>11704885>>Japanese companies continue to innovate and put out ever more impressive toysI get that you're trans and wish you were asian but you can't just lie like that and expect to be taken seriously. Japanese lines are charging higher prices for worse products than they ever have. Features are devolving, build quality is worse than ever, the Chinese are eating their lunch in every category.

>>11704583That was a terrible decision, but the film itself is at least a relatively solid action film. Zero is just fucking terrible all the way through, shitty acting, bad writing, annoying characters, franchise continuity mistakes, and worst of all it makes the Terminators wildly incompetent (as well as fucking up their design).

>>11711049>>11711052Ya... idk about that. Almost half the price of a regular release and no accessories and also tiny. Give it bags to hold stuff, weapons to attach, something. I'd like to get one but...
Wtf did they raise the price on this to? Wasn't it $109 before?
>>11711217It depends on where you live, to burgerland it cost 126 bucks, that didn't change
>>11711218I was 109 the last time I looked at it(Canada). And they removed the $20 deposit option, only full price now.
Also they are selling the scalped price version of the regular smasher...
which film or series had the best toyline?
>>11688652Mincromachines ships line from 93 was the best.
>>11698076I don't understand how this didn't happen in the 80s when they were making the movies, and toylines with oversized vehicles was the norm. The first run TNG figures were perfect size for this too. Just have a line of 3 inch tall figures and a GI:Joe vehicle sized Enterprise to stick them into.

I'm looking for driver/passenger figures for a 1:10 scale RC car (so roughly 7 inch action figure scale) but I've yet to find anything that would be suitable. It's mostly dominated by horror, capeshit and other comics/cartoons, and classic movie characters that would be way too recognizable. I'm looking for more original/generic characters, with at least reasonably realistic styling.Any suggestions for brands/lines to look out for that might offer what I'm looking for?

>>11695156Your best bet would be to cobble together civvie looking figures released in the last couple of years. DST released a few of them between Westworld, Sin City, and Clerks. Mcfarlane and NECA have a few options too.

>>11707935Figma Ninja Slayer doesn't have butterfly joints, bicep swivel, the single joints in elbows and knees and ankle pivot is pretty limited so that's more like extra 80% of range for Ryu and assuming you have NJ (I doubt it) he got ugly man breast and if you compare it with a bunch of figures, it has pinhead, the best about that figure is the accessories

Getting a lot of ads for Zen Market. Are they reliable? I do most of my purchases through Big Bad Toy Store, but I’m open to alternatives.
>>11710910Yeah they're fine. You have to pay then for the item, load up a wallet with currency. They charge a small fee.
>>11710910ZenMarket is legit. I stopped using them because they increased their buying fee from like 300 to 500 yen (might be 800 yen now) from certain sellers (think its independent sellers). Not too bad if you buy a handful of more pricey items. Pretty bad deal if you are buying mutiple cheaper items like I was.

heard some riceburner speed off so I checked my porch and my package was delivered by some uniuni n word smoker. Box reeked off cigs and smell had even seeped inside to the packing paper. Great new thing to worry about with uniuni...

>>11690551So you're saying he's a dude playin' a dude dressed like another dude?
Faces aside these look really good for Western mass-release collector figures. They're well detailed, the articulation is great, and paint looks good. Man-At-Arms's armor looks dull and worn-out in all the right ways. I love it. The issue is those faces are really bland. They have no expression, no life in their eyes. Still, I'm excited to see these bodies used on more traditional figures in the future. Give them more stylized heads and they'lll be 10/10. Also I might just have to go all-in on DCshit if this is what we're going to get.
A nigger and a jew. Awesome.
