>>11555391No you'll just make fun of me
Got Bring Arts 9S in today and I'm expecting 2.0 2B soon. He's pretty good! Massive step up from 2B 1.0. The elbows are a touch janky looking and the paint on the severed 2B arm is a bit rough, but that aside he's good and I'm looking forward to Toobie. I feel like he's like, a centimetre too tall though? Not a massive deal as I'm not a massive scalefag but still.
>>11558832get a tripcode already so people can filter your esl ass
>>11559136I have still yet to purchase a Bring Arts. Always been tempted by the Dragon Quest one. What made you decide to get this version compared to say figma or Figuarts?
>>11560191It was a bit of an impulse purchase honestly, he was cheap on Mandarake (and 2B was going for cheap on another site). That said they're based specifically on the games rather than the anime, and 2B comes with a TONNE of weapons, so that was a deciding factor.
Is this /toy/ related ?
Im a fan of these Lego pieces too but I figured /b/ would mog me and /fa/ might gaslight me again.
>>11548844yes, but you can make ANYTHING, heres what ive been making into chains
>>11559862why?
>>11559985I think they're cute
Last thread hit page 10. Discuss all shonen related toys here.Recent News:SHF Kuripika & Leorio up for POStorm Arena Baki due for release in SeptemberMedicos Toru & WoU promo images out
>>11565641>Both are extremely overpricedSo it seems... But I'd rather get the best looking one. SHF articulations seems pretty good, but the colors on the buzzmod look better.
>>11565613Buzzmod 100%. The sculpt is a lot better and the soft goods waist coat is removable. It also comes with more accessories.>>11565673The revo looks really bad with how they did the waist part and wrist joints. I'm definitely getting the shf.
>>11565613You also get the static legs for deep poses.
>>11565890>>11565894I'm gonna be honest, seeing them side by side the sculpt and proportions of the SHF look more accurate to the character design. Vest looks fucking stupid from the back for the SHF though. Colors look better on the buzzmod aswell.Man I'll probably go for SHF for him, I already have a bunch of blue effects that will work wonders but sucks that for that price he gets jack shit, and sucks that the buzzmod costs like 2x more with no real justification.
Icons.>>11566482Yeah. If i was just getting into collecting demon slayer figures now I'd probably get the figuarts instead since they're cheaper, easier to find and may even get more characters long term. Im just sticking with buzzmod since I'm already 2 far go. Although I will mix and match if bandai do Gyomei or Obanai.
How come Lego only makes sets based on licenses? What happened to all the OC stuff?This goes for preety mich every toy company. Where are all the original toys and designs? Things like Bakugan, Gormiti or NERF. Nowadays the only original character figures are japanese, therefore super expensive and anime adjacent. Even toys have fallen prey to the mass enshittification of everything. What is going on?
>>11556606>>11556774Bionicle is a flop Ninjago is way more profitable get over it.
>>11556925The most soulless Star thing ever
>>11556970he's talking about the word you autistic retardalso the word is manchild
>>11546221Because it's less of a risk in the investors' eyes. Licensed toys already have a baseline market of people who are familiar with the product, so there's less marketing required. Why invest in making Johnny Thunder or Dino when you can just sell to people who already know Indiana Jones or Jurassic Park? That's also why anything that doesn't fit in a license gets swept into City or Ninjago – they already know it'll sell. It's the same reason we get so many franchise and nostalgia movies, rather than new stuff. If it flops, the exec who pitched it can just say "I guess people just weren't as interested in that brand as the data implied" rather than "we made a bad product"On a related note, we're never getting the old way back. Now that the market is saturated with IPs people recognise, they're not going to buy up toys of the no-name characters they don't recognise. It's true of the old Lego building style too; now that every Lego set is packed with little bits for exact details, something with a simpler build like pic attached wouldn't be bought by a lot of buyers. It's probably more in line with the 4+ sets these days.
>>11559766That’s really sad. Old Lego was wonderful, and now it’s succumbed to the same muh graphics sickness that engulfed gaming.

>>11561665>Then go to RedditWhy? He's saving me from going to Reddit.>You want to white knight his ass?If it causes you to die from a brain aneurysm so that you stop replying to his posts, I will actively encourage him. Call it accelerationism. Anything to stop you from crying like a bitch. You are 1000 times more annoying than a Reddit repost.
>>11561678You're as much of a troll as he is, the board will be better off without either one of you. I'll make sure to tag both of your asses every single time, just to make you even more angry.
I'm fine with someone calling out the reposting. It's annoying. Especially the more blatant shitposty ones lately.
>>11561698I just want the reposted threads to stop, or be at least legit punishable, I am tired of redditors infecting this poor board
New thread:>>11562034>>11562034>>11562034
Does anyone have the threezero Konoke Link MDLX Dango? Is it an OC or an existing character? I saw a youtube review and it seemed pretty feature packed for a 3.5” thing. 49 points of articulation.
Anyone?
>>11559199Existing character from a mobile game or something. It looks cool and all, but idk, something so random is a bit of a hard sell when the aestherics doesn't really fit into much else I collect. I think it's around 1/1, so I guess it could hang out with Shinkis and other similar supposedly 1/1 items.
>>11559199The person that designed that really likes Digimon.
NECA has always been my go-to affordable provider of collectors items for some of my favorite films, characters, creature designs, etc. Like really high quality stuff and the best bang for your buck on the market by far, but the prices are simply getting insane.Like out of control insane. I don't know whether it's due to tariffs or what, but in the past year and a half the prices have skyrocketed on this stuff so much that I can no longer justify spending the money on it anymore. Prices have jumped by about $6-$7 on most all of their 7" inch scale figures, whether they're ultimate or not. Single ultimate's are burgeoning on becoming relatively the same price as what two-packs used to be. The jump from my mental post-pandemic-yesteryear of retailing $27-$28 Ultimate's, with tax being somewhere around $32-$34 at checkout, are now retailing for $36 with tax taking me near, or over the $40 mark now. Since there has been no noticeable increase in quality or features from what I can perceive, I can't help but feel like I'm being scammed.What once made NECA great in my eyes has since perished, and I know that many people here are going to disagree with me and that's okay, I truly feel like the best of NECA is now behind us. To be honest I've been out of the loop on all of the releases coming out, as well as this community and I just realized that I stopped caring about it because it doesn't make any sense to me financially whether I can afford it or not and it simply feels wrong. Without any sign in returning in full swing to their seminal brands like Alien, Predator, Terminator, Robocop and various horror properties that they continue to just sit on and not use to their fullest potential, not to mention all of the half-assed re-releases this past year, I now find very little initiative to continue to collect. With that I'm going to have to call it quits once and for all by saying goodbye to this hobby. For the foreseeable future, this will be adieu.
>>11559171Shut the fuck up you lame ass troll. How many of these threads do you have to make? Fucking spammer.
>>11559171Sup Redit Reposter! Kys.https://www.reddit.com/r/NECA/comments/1nd4stb/im_done_finished/
>>11559321Based on some of his trollish responses to comments, it wouldn’t surprise me if he posted it to both places
>>11559171>I don't know whether it's due to tariffsOf course it is. When even McFarlane's prices are skyrocketing, you know something crazy is occurring.>I can't help but feel like I'm being scammed.You are, but not by NECA. Corporations don't pay taxes, their customers do. It gets passed on to you.
>>11559616Bro, it's a troll taking a post from Reddit. You're wasting your time posting.
It recently struck me how pretty much every robot figurine I own either has claws, fists with a hole for accessories or swappable hands stuck in one pose. What are some cool robot figs with really nicely articulated fingers?
most of the World War Robot figures, but they aren't easy to get nowadays
>>11555497dud wtf is that shit? Looks like a tin turd lmao
>>11556128overpriced hipstershit cans of turds, and the y're fucking awesome.check them not so dainty fingers

Does anyone remember their first Beyblade?
>>11568351probably dragoon or whatever. just whatever my parents bought me. I know I really liked pic related as a kid.after that I didn't keep up with beyblades, I remember seeing burst when it first hit the west and thought "they still make those?" did buy a few later into its life but I didn't get really into it beyond just being another toy I'd fiddle with sometimes until I fell down the rabbithole with X.
>>11568351As a kid I found Earth Eagle at my local supermarket.If only I knew the gold I held in my hands that day...
>>11568292I'm still pretty new so I might be retarded, but is there any reason to use 1-70 over 1-60 on that tyranno beat build?
>>11568366Ive heard Beat likes to hit downward to knock other beys off balance. Apparently it can also hit upwards but I dont think anyone actually tries that. Also I had 1-60 on Wizard Rod, I could just put 1-60 on Beat.>>11568329Why Point over Taper? I've had some success on Taper but idk. Also I did try Shark Scale on 4-50 Rush but idk if I wanna keep that

So in case you don’t know, NECA made a Donatello’s Lab from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or TMNT for short. This was a $300!!! made to order set. When they finally started shipping it out, people were getting multiple sets even if they only ordered one. NECA neglected to say anything about this for like a month, until they sent everyone a threatening email that they need to return the set. Their claim is that they were “changing the warehouse system” and it led to duplicated orders. Well, now they’re saying that if you don’t return the set, you will be charged for any additional sets, despite this being a clear violation of FTC laws. What does /toy/ think of this situation? Is NECA in the right? Are people who keep their labs stealing from collectors?
>>11558769>It's found the people that want it already.Maybe they should stop restocking it if it's already found the 0.000005% of the population that want their shelves lined with horny gilfs.
>>11558953AC/DC has millions of fans and is one of those rare bands that just can't become has-beens. They move merch. It's just that most don't go to WalMart to shop for AC/DC, and at NECA prices many won't "impulse-buy" it either if they just happen to be in the right aisle to even see it.
>>11542952That's not illegal if it's been sent to you in lazy error by incompetent people that don't know how to work a computer working the desks at some company. It becomes a "mystery freebie" in the mail.
>>11562533Get a life you sad troll
>>11562568There is no trolling. You saying there's trolling is trolling. If someone sends you a thing you didn't order, it is not "illegal" to keep it. State the laws that describe what you're saying, or just stop trolling with falsehood.
ITT: Ugly licensed figures
>>11546822That looks fine. This thread is stupid.
I don't know if I'd go so far as to call it "ugly," but I do still wonder why Bandai turned Lord Zedd into a triangle.
>>11546697What is that?
>>11558805It's supposed to be Monty Gator from Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach.
>>11547142That seems like a light piping gimmick figure. Probably something to do with that.
