>>11628887They are probably autrocious brick build a la brickheads. No true lego fan want's that shit. WE WANT MOLDS WITH STUDS THAT SCALE WITH THE MINIFIGURES, WHY DOESNT LEGO FUCKING UNDERSTAND THIS?!!?!
>>11638435--it is absolutely possible for Lego to make minifig trainers with minifig-scale Pokemon.--it is also absolutely possible to put those trainers in Pokecenter, or other various locations from the games and/or anime cartoon, sets.it is indeed frustrating. we all imagine that is how it will be. Lego must be making so much money with $400+ sets that they are no longer interested in anything else. any "small" set these days, is basically charity. a waste of their time. why make a $30 set that will conclude with X profits, when a $300 set concludes with 10X profits? would you rather make 1 million dollars, or 10 million dollars? you really can't blame Lego for making a $650 set. blame "the public" for buying it.

Starting off with Metasaurs, a line of robot dinosaurs in the same vein of Zoids that are 3D puzzles made out of punchout plastic sheets and balljoints that were sold in the early 2010s. As far as I can find there were only these three designs.
>>11626917I have never met another living soul that remembers Storm Hawks. It was such a cool concept.Half-motorcycle, half-fighter jet. Launch from an airborne aircraft carrier with a lightsaber in hand and go fight the bad guys. What's not to love?Toys kinda left a lot to be desired, though.
>>11628901My secondhand toy store had a shelf full of the Zoids Wild kits. That was the only time I ever saw them at retail.
>>11636259>I have never met another living soul that remembers Storm Hawks.Have you considered /co/?
>>11636094Going deeper, no one remembers the 5 inch toys of the characters from the cartoon.

>>11646529Because nothing happens most days.
>>11646529I've moved to other forums and places to talk because its been so dead here the past year or so. Even Godzilla day was pretty quiet. I also buy mostly MMS and this place seems more focused on the Monsterarts and Hiya lines.>>11645232I got the Wolfman in a baggie with a header at the top. Also the giant snake and giant octopus came in baggies. Other more modern ones I got didn't come in bags. I think its kind of random.

what have you guys picked up during bl*ck friday? w*lmart had a bunch of the jada megaman guys for $10 so I'm happy
Batman Funko pop.
>>11636541>... granted, black fridays for the past 5 years have been generally waaaay less busy, but there's fewer toylines i buy at retail now, so i've continued my trend of buying toys on black fridays.Probably because stores were starting Black Friday earlier and earlier every year and even staying open on Thanksgiving in the US, which caused a lot of people to look at it in a negative light. But now that they push a lot of the sales online, "Black Friday" tends to last pretty much the whole month of November, so it thins out the crowds physically in stores for a day or two.At any rate, there have been some pretty good deals on LEGO sets, which I picked up maybe 5 or 6 sets. Some up to 50% off, and some were deals on got on LEGO's website. They were maybe only 20-30% off, but they're larger sets that don't often go on sale, and they ran their extra points campaign, so the savings ends up being probably another 10% off in points back.
>>11636735I talk about HLJs old sales like fucking woodstock. They just don't do it like that anymore. Used to get shit like hot toys or big ticket gunpla for 60-70% off. Then they just slowed down and for years it's only been stuff they can't move.
>>11638101Nah, stores did that shit in the early 10s too but didn't have such a negative result back then.The 20s have just been that shit. People just don't like leaving their houses anymore... or buying shit, given how poor sales have been for the past couple of years.
Still haven't bought anything specific but did get a retro toy from WalMart at retail when I ordered my vitamins and coffee for the free shipping.Who knew Walmart tried to dupe prime. Do they also have shitty video streaming shows no one watches?

>>11640674Origin Bee reminds me of the Action Master one's colors, I dig it.
>>11640674I don't like how the Origins figures have aspects of their Earth vehicles in their robot modes. Bumblebee has the front end of a VW Beetle on his feet despite the episode taking place millions of years before they were invented. Jazz is the most offensive of the set though. I'll have to find someone who can print that replacement chest piece once I track down that figure.
BBTS is now getting into the business of selling graded action figures. I fucking hate this...Tell me how much you hate it too.
>>11636751>subby getting pissy because it was pointed out how fake his bullshit sounds. Lmao. I'm sure you did go to all those parties subs. I got to go to the Met Gala this year, it was a blast.
>>11636751Do you tell "people" at these "parties" how much time you spend here? Do you regale them about JoyToy's "mustard" gold?
>>11627708imagine getting a modern star wars figure graded imagine getting a modern figure graded
>>11627708I don't even understand the concept of grading something like an action figure. Are we grading the packaging? How clean the paint on the figure looks? If it's placed properly in the bubble or looking off to one side?
>>11641051It's just a money making scheme. There is no higher purpose.
Previous thread: >>11604510Mondo>Egon and Boogieman shipping directly from MondoHasbro>Haslab Ecto-1 starting to arrive in backer's hands
didn't realize the vents were stickers... thats pretty shiti wonder if someone will 3d print a replacement hood with them sculpted
Reviews have been rolling in for the Haslab Ectomobile.Most common complaint is that the decals don't stay on easily. There are also these two round plug bits that go on the side, which aren't flush when plugged in. Then there's the hood vent stickers.Anyone get their shipping notice yet? I haven't heard a thing.The GB2 figures seem mixed. Egon and Winston likenesses seem off. Still hyped though.Post pics if you've got yours in hand, pl0x.
>>11639274Made to order is always kind of putting the customer at the mercy of the corporation. I can understand why some people refuse to do it.
>>11639274>Anyone get their shipping notice yet? I haven't heard a thing.I received my Ectos on Sunday, but I'm saving them as an Xmas gift to myself. Has anyone said whether the car is white plastic, or painted?
>>11639421Haven't heard anyone say anything specifically. I think someone claimed they say scratches on it in some pics, so it might be painted.
Please recommend an Fukno Pop for my wife. I cannot do my own research because my internet is down. Thanks lads!

what went wrong?
>>11634708This is the big niche for companies that produce bad products, just doing something no one else will do. McFarlane is doing the same thing with Fallout figures now

Why do you think Super7 just didn't do what McFarlane Toys did and just limit production to ridiculously small levels?
>>11640095they're flaming liberals who have anti homophobia, ant racism, DEI inclusion crapped baked into their branding. delusional butt huffers who are as about as deep as a hep C riddled puddle. they just don't live in reality
>>11640095They wanted to expand. Todd seems pretty happy where he is; he knows he’s never going to be hasbro but he has his toys in the kids aisle and still doesn’t have to bend over for shareholders. S7 was hoping to get to that level, and to do that you gotta sell more shit. It just blew up because they make trash and vendors could no longer sell it.

Does anyone know what's going on? I'm seeing people say the current CEO of Hasbro threw out the entire archive of toys but I can't find the sourcee.g.https://x.com/RuHamsDollRace/status/1990932817044512944Finding out that the current CEO of Hasbro threw out the ENTIRE archive of toys (given to them by ex-employees for preservation) is so rage inducingsome of them being 1 of 1 or rare older toys. Ponies, Transformers… gone… history gone… all bc corporate greed
>>11634351What the fuck does this have to do with fucking anything?
>>11634427He’s mentally ill, thats all
>>11629329>2. Transformers dinobots, Jetfire, Shockwave, Mirage, and probably every Transformer after 1987 except for Power Master Optimus PrimeHasbro never had most of these. Most of kt was in the hands of Takara or the back of whatever factory in macau ar China. Shockwave, omega and sky lynx I think we're toybox. They seemed to still have them for the sky lynx encore release.Bandai owns the jet fire mold. Its just the dyrl Roy fokker with a different nose cone. Bbts had a reissue of the seacons ad well, and before that, beast wars II released them.
No one from any site went to the dump? Were all the nearby fags who heard about this too busy gooning? Tf?
I truly believe there are good people who will find the truth and bring hope to archiving history like these iconic toys,Chris cocks truly is a terrible CEO but I know you all are dedicated to your love of collecting toys because deep down were all just younger versions of ourselves just wanting to have a piece of our childhood that we want to keep,to have,to love. I may not know you all but I know there is good inside you, despite the other anons saying stupid shit you are doing good keeping history alive, you are collectors and you should be happy you have a piece of history in your home or studio,Look past the hate and share your voice, screw Chris Cocks anonymous friends.

Is Mega dead? Is Mattel Brick Shop replacing it? Are we getting more sets? Did Lego kill Mega for good? Who knows!

>>11644126This, but guys with hairMost Mega males are b*ld for some reasonThey developed removable hair pieces for the AC line only for them to disappear into the voidbtw have you tried the females from the infinite era of Halo MarinesThere was a brief period where they tried to make them scale closer to the CoD figures but people didn;t like it due to them being taller than spartans
>>11644309 I remember those HALO figures. one of the snipers if I'm not mistaken. Honestly the range of female characters was small. If they had made actual Witcher figures (Besides Gerrault) we might have seen more.. but even the Futureama figures only had Fry and Bender. They never made a female colonial marine or a Scully figure. The He Man line had the most female characters in any group, ( Ignoring Monster High and Barbie. ) And I don't want the giant tit torsos that casters are producing. (with prohibitive post to Leafland anyway.)
>>11643776I wish Dragons would come back. Or any fantasy IP really. The latest I acquired was a couple of GoT small sets and the Witcher set, which while actually a great set, is just the one and done. So now I am scavenging ebay for anything that might come up while trying not to go into massive debt
>>11647043I wish they had made smaller Witcher set(s) with more of the characters. (from the games not the T.V.) . That way they would have been a lot more appealing than a "Masterbuild": one off. Gerralt, Dandelion, Ciri, Yen and Triss as well as a man at arms or two and a few smaller monsters. And also big monsters - but not the superfluous buildings. with lower prices. I suspect they could have made use of the Game of Thrones parts as well.
>>11646960There was also the GoT female figures. I planned on buying multiples of the throne set to customize the faces--specifically thought about turning Ceres into a awoken. Only bought one though.>>11647043Did you buy the Skyrim set?>>11647364They could've easily at least given us an Unsullied (or whatever they're called) vs the ice zombies. I'm not a GoT fans and have only seen clips of season eight so i don't know the terminology.
