>>11723657It literally isn't though. What makes you think this? Toys are lowest priority so they're re-ordered last, after everything else in the store. Sure, a computer may do the ordering itself, but the reason distribution sucks is because the actual stores don't give a fuck.
>>11723681>What makes you think this?because it's literally how walmart operates and has operated since the 00s.Maybe even Target at this point.>Toys are lowest priority so they're re-ordered lastIt could be, but the trucks aren't always full especially from January til April or May. If they're not shipping, it's because they either don't have stock or they have too much stock and a store doesn't warrant new stock.>the actual stores don't give a fuck.They may or may not, but that's because it's out of their hands. It's mostly handled by computers at a national level and a regional manager will have a little bit of input. Store managers can only order/stock what their computers allow them to and they're allowed to bitch to their regional manager.
>>11724066So you're just making assumptions. Got it.
>>11724510If i was making assumptions, i wouldnt have said literally, retard.This shit was on documentaries everywhere in the 00s, because walmart was so proud of their system https://www.scribd.com/document/291239014/Supply-Chain-Management-of-Walmarthttps://www.scribd.com/document/88868876/Case-Analysis-WalMart3And i didn't make any assumptions on whether a manager likes having stock being handled by automated systems, hence "may or may not". Who knows what their personal opinion actually is.Whereas everything you said is made up based on what some third world janitor overheard.
>>11724527Oh, it's subjectanon. Should've realized. Opinion discarded.
So for context, I've had this Tigger plush ever since I was very, very little and as you can imagine, it's gotten really old. There's a lot of stitches and the entire neck is almost gone. I'm trying to figure out what year it was made and which brand it belongs to (all the tags are gone cuz I was a dumb kid) so I can get it replaced in case something happens to it but I'm having trouble finding out the exact one. I've seen some that look pretty close but not exact so I don't know for sure. Can anyone help a guy out?
>>11719197(Me)Since no one's responded yet I'm deciding to include a couple more angles. You can probably see what I meant by the neck being almost gone entirely.
>>11719742(Me)
Fisher price, probably 2001 and tricot
>>11719197a local pajeet tailor could probably very easily fix that neck for you
>>11721527Gave it a search and besides the stripes looking slightly different it seems to be the one yeah. Thanks a bunch Anon>>11721530Maybe, but I don't want to take any chances
Is there a site like myfigurecollection but for comics and western statues?
>>11718930Seconding
I think I found some communities in myfigurecollection for western toys like cartoon and [spoiler]horses[/spoiler] some months ago, but they're probably not as extensive as you would wish.>>11715002That's half of this board though
>>11718930Pretty sure it's the revoltech, though the SHF's looks quite good when posed from some pics I've seen.

How is the quality of lego sets nowadays? Rivendell is tempting me to spend several hundreds of dollars on it despite me not building any lego sets since I was twelve.
>>11721978Its definitely worse quality that in it used to be. Lighted, more translucent bricks. But that's because theyve been using clear ABS pellets and they mix them with color pellets instead of the originals having solid ABS colors. The pieces seem a bit lighter and are also produced and molded much faster than they used to be so they have little white parts where the pieces are broken off. Its still way better plastic than most Chinese shit. As long as you keep it out of direct sunlight like in front of a mirror, and in a temperature controlled room the set should last a long time.
>>11716733Not a minifig fan but the frog one is fantastic! what part did you use?
>>11722186Thanks! New CMF Frog costume for the hat and legs, plain black head, DnD halfling CMF torso and cape. The shield is a custom sticker on a plain white shield.
The eternals torso was good for something, at least (I don't have blue eyed neutral faces)
What do you guys plan to do with your toys before you die? Whether you don't want kids, are unable to have them, or your own kids don't share your interests, what should you do with them? I love my small collection and plan to enjoy them for the rest of my life until my time comes and when that time finally comes, I want them to make other people happy but don't know how to go about it.
>>11720838>>11721050i usually take close up photos of my shit. Completely disassociated with my rooms and bookcases. Or i use black backgrounds. I'll even change up the background from time to time, to keep things "new"When i want my posts to be linked with my stuff, i include a figure or something unique that appeared in my old photos, so someone actually has to pay attention and have a good memory to recognize my photos. ... if i don't repost them.
You have to make a ledger with prices and values and make sure multiple people have a copy before you die.Even then, there is still a good chance your family will get 30% of the value because they are lazy and or stupid and just trade it to some dealer. 30% is the high end too. The average american is just a dumb consumer that is barely ok at their day job. Yes, even the people you love. They are not going to be assed to get top dollar for your things.Worst case is in their greed and laziness they dumpster everything you own so they can sell your car and house and split that thats what usually happens.Middle ground is they donate it. Also, organize your shit. Put all the like things in a box. Label the boxes. You have to make it insanely easy for the next person. I can not overstate how lazy and atupid people are about this. Besides. If you organize your shit, it will. E easier to still enjoy if you make it to old age. People that pile everything into huge totes from Lowes are in for a rude awakening when they can not longer lift thoae things

>>11721050>so shit nowThat’s how this whole site is becoming, /pol/ infected everything. It’s the same as people posting their home gyms on /fit/, there’s always some absolute freak who will try to deduce where the poster is located and then harass them.>giving internet access to the masses was such a mistakeAnother reason why the early 2000s were a great time to be alive and young: you had to have money to get broadband.
Always had this quirk since I was a little boy (in b4 weirdo fag loser) where I'd see my old dog's cute toys and feel really sad for them because they looked lonely.Fast forward. 30s, totally sane (I think), decent job loving wife who is just like me and still, I position my favorite lil guys all together so none of them are lonely or left out. It's not a toy story complex or belief they are alive, it's just a weird inner world quirk or something I have. I had to leave my laptop on to watch a stream for in game rewards one night and I sat 2 of em on my trackpad to pull an all nighter together and enjoy watching the show.Ever heard of this? It was never any gay weird or sexual 'BUT THEYRE MY BEST FRIENDS. shit, I just want them all vibin when I am. That's as far as it ever went. Always felt there was some sort of personality theory/ism behind it. But I dunno.
>>11709569Its a cased of the based
>>11709795That's cute as fuck, anon.
>>11709569I'm the exact same way. I try to treat them all equally and spend time together. They are like family to me. But I was always a very lonely kid until high school so that might be the reason why.
>>11709569that's not that weird, people anthropomorphize cars as if they were living things all the time>>11711036I second this anon, we have that built into usI also have this strange respect for toys like even bootleg ones I would not throw out unless they were absolutely torn to shreds, it's like I feel they deserve love despite just being objects.
>>11711067I'm not a spiritual person but I'd be lying if I said I didn't think cursed/blessed objects don't exist, especially after how many people had bad things happen after getting the sonichu medallions, but not just limited to that, there's been a few times in my life where certain things have just given off a bad vibe.

>The one toy you want out of a specific line is the most difficult to find.What's her name?
>>11718147I have the M&R and I agree, they're fucking garbage. Love the duckies though, got more fun out of them (to the point one lost its leg) than the main figures.
>>11718147Don't buy them. Both the Jaz Adventure Time and Regular Show toylines sucked. They don't stand on their own, are literal garbage and fall apart in your (adult) hands. I can't imagine how fast they'd break with a child playing with them.
>>11718164>>11720549>>11720575They made an episode about these shitty shit toys. If you were around back then, you'd laugh and cryhttps://youtu.be/nHC2oh4emLE?t=140
>>11718164I remember they sucked so bad the show itself made fun of them. ?
>>11720862That episode's a classic
Are there literally only play, bring, static ARTS figures for Cloud, Aerith, or other Final Fantasy characters? I really want a good figure but play arts kai has a reputation of being fragile and over expensive action statues, and I would rather have some six to eight inch tall figure I can switch poses wildly, or even switch outfits on, but the best idea I have winds up being a huge figure with a custom head.
>>11719832AI is your only friend
>>11719832I don't think there are any. You got the legit but overpriced Square-Enix stuff, and you have the fakes that are still somewhat overpriced on the Chinese sites. That's about it. Every now and then on a rare occasion Square-Enix will allow a 3rd-party to make an over-priced statue, but that's it.
As shoddily made and expensive as square shit is, it just has too much paint for the average sweat shop to clone
>>11721029They can license the IP out to allow other companies to produce cheaper stuff that's more affordable, but they won't because if affordable choices are present then people won't be so willing to pay $80 for a single action figure.
i don't think FF is popular enough these days for the chinese to make illegal figs
https://youtu.be/4azApeWqyq8?si=cX2GIYy7_VRJ3M51I saw this cool video and wanted to use it to springboard a discussion about greed and toy collecting.How much is too much?
>>11706943I think the problem starts when the hobby turns into lifestyle. When you turn it into indentity and it becomes main/sole escapism.You start to buy and hoard became fomo and seeing every new release as a next resin/plastic/abs hit.The money is an issue only if you lack them or other parts of your life are touched by it.I probably spent around 200-300dol per year on lego in the last 7 years and around ~500dol on other toy stuff each time I visited japan (which was 3 times in the last 9y). 3500dol spent on toys is large amount to some, to others its kind of money that can start your collection.In the end I dont have space to display any more of this shit and I acknowlege it.People that cant are the one that jave a problem.
>>11715498building these sets is piss easy since they all come with numbered bags
>>11706943I understand the joy in building something, but then what? Are you supposed to actually display these ugly looking things in your home or something?
>>11720982This guy mortgaged a commercial building to hold all his legos. If you watch his videos he complains about commuting to go play with his toys.
>>11721036Holy crap, how many toys this guy owns for god's sake?
>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.
>>11723529It's a given considering the OP is bait for arguing East vs. West and China vs. Japan.
>>11723710OP here, and yeah, I should have thought of that; I was honestly trying to start an actual discussion on WHY Western toylines on the whole are dragging their feet with improvement, given Western companies have been doing it for so long, whilst Chinese-original toys have gone from "avoid at all costs" to "actually really quite good" almost overnight. And again it's not to say the West produces nothing good; Jada Toys are amazing for the price, 4H makes really nice looking stuff even if they don't pose all that well, David Silva(? the Beasts of the Mesozoic guy) makes great stuff for a one-man band, G.I. Joe Classified is honestly great for what it is, hell, Mattel of all companies pulled their finger out with some of their more recent He-Man stuff and the Hammond Collection. It's just a bit weird that so many (but not all) Western toys still have this inexplicable but instantly recognizable feeling of ...I dunno, not exactly cheapness but slight sloppiness to them considering what's possible now.I think >>11704897 has it right; strictly adult-collector-focused toys (rather than repackaged or tarted up kids' toys) being a thing people actually want has only recently occurred to the people up top (as said, probably brought on by the Kung Flu). Hopefully they actually take that on board and we see an increase in the amount of non-minimum-effort toys being made to a higher standard.Oh well. Worst case scenario this ends up as a containment thread for him.
>>11723760>strictly adult-collector-focused toysNECA still has a General, Super 7 sucks and doesn't have a dedicated autist, and Mezco priced everyone here on /toy/ out three years ago. That said all these brands exist and should be acknowledged as for adult collectors.
>>11723529oof, sorry for being one of the few toy buyers on the board who has a ton of toys from Japan, America, Brazil, UK, Canadia, Hong Kong, etc. I guess you only want opinions from people who only buy from one country to proclaim it the greatest ever, huh?Generally, Chinese figures are bad. The only company who has consistently been great is Hiya. Been buying their shit for over 10 years (before they became Hiya) and I've never had a problem.Companies like Storm Collectibles have had many joint cracking problems because their plastic can be poor. Ori/Toy Alliance had aging issues due to the softness and the newer ones can still easily twist themselves apart. Joytoy has QC issues out the ass, from bad paint, to brittle plastics, molding issues, and forgetting to glue down their figures. And that's just my first hand experience. Second hand, you need only look at the fantasy, furfag, and coomer threads to see how often Chinese figure breaks. Only Transformers gets as many reports, but they're the biggest fanbase on /toy/ and one of the best selling toylines in the world>>11723760>I was honestly trying to start an actual discussion on WHY Western toylines on the whole are dragging their feet with improvementit's because a toy company in China has an operating cost that's 10-100x cheaper than in Japan or America. So not only is manufacturing NOT hired out (the factory owner can also be toy company owner) but the accountants, lawyers, sculptors, secretaries, marketers, are also cheaper by at least 10x. And if you're buying from an overseas shop, the costs are much lower there too. Stores, warehouses, etc are cheapSo China can afford to give paint jobs that you rarely ever see in Japanese figures, so they can look really nice. Why don't they also have higher QC though? Because poor regulationsAlso, you're comparing apples to oranges. Collector toys ≠ children toys. Hasbro and Mattel make kid toys. Chinese toys on /toy/ are collector toys.
>>11724135>Chinese toys on /toy/ are collector toysI agree. Now who is the target audience for Mezco and Super 7 stuff that's triple the price of kids toys yet still do the same IPs?

It's weird that there's not more. Like I remember there being a lot of them when the movies came out and you got the lego sets but you'd think there'd be more adult collector stuff
I'd love to see Hiya do a line similar to their Walking Dead stuff. Both scales but I'd be most excited for the 4" offerings. Especially if they do it like their G.I. Joe line and do a few pairs of hero characters and then a couple of army builders and then back to the heroes.

Anyone seen this? A new toyline coming from BasicFun, licensed by Hasbro based on DnD called "Dungeons and Dragons: Questers". This looks dope. They showed a shitload of monsters that you can collect and each figure comes with a classic DnD dice. You can also mix and match them and will be in the cheaper range, I think they will be quite a hit.
