I’d like to hear suggestions on how to display smaller toys, i started collecting 2.5 inch Jakks figures and now im looking at other lines that have characters on a similar scaleBut since they are so tiny im trying to look for ways to optimize space on my shelf specially if it’s stuff i can get on amazon since i have a lot of money there, something like pic related seems like a good start im just not sure how or where to find those smaller shelves on the back or how to get some custom made
>>11837089One option is these clear acrylic shelves. There's loads of options on aliexpress.Also a tip is to get clear double sided adhesive dots and sticking them in place. They cost next to nothing, are easy to remove and help avoid everything getting knocked off.
>>11837089You can try looking in the direction of what people use to display lego minifigures.
>>11837089If you're on Amazon, search for "trinket shelf" or "wooden storage divider box".
Op here thanks for the advice im thinking about using these 3.3 inch acrylic cubed and stacking them to put my 2.5 inch figures in them, hope it works, the cubes will take a few days to arrive

I have yet to receive any tariff refunds.
>>11825604>have to pay more because of tariffs>company gets tariff refund>they just keep itkek
>>11836872It was pretty clear this would happen when sites started forcing you to pay tariffs to them instead of directly paying the tariffs yourself
>>11825604That's never going to happen, even if you used FedEx or DHL who explicitly passed on the cost of tariffs to (you) to pay.
>>11840426That's how tariffs work you idiot. The cost is on us, the consumers. That's how it's always been. I'm sorry you believed the liar who told you otherwise.
>>11825604This was basically an indirect handout to corporations who had the excuse to raise prices on us then got refunds. But we don't get refunds and the prices stay high.

Got my first 888 about a month ago, love it to bits.
any good bearings on aliexpress? just trying to get back into it and my skyva from a few years ago is fucked
>>11843294I recommend getting a bearing on YoYoExpert instead. Good picks are the center trac and the One Drop 10-ball. Can't forget a bottle of thin lube for proper maintenance.
>>11843303spending 5 bucks on a bearing for a yoyo doesn't sit right with me. even the generic recommendations for skateboarders are less than that (bones reds, $3.50/ea on amazon)
The best YoYo I ever had.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J8GRRZcbUY
>dna gives me spaghetti string >hiroyuki bind gives me a terrible wind and i have to do a couple of those light responsive throws to get the thing to fully unwind >cant get the snap start wind for the life of me so i have to do the one where you roll the yoyo up the string and it only winds halfway insteadsheeeit. I think I'm just not getting the fingerspin fast enough for dna and for the bind the only thing I can think of is that I'm not throwing it high enough.

Garchomp on Target finally dammit
Why the actual fuck is distribution so fucking shit now? Nothing ever arrives in stores and things go at a snails pace to ever arrive anymore. Even the mail is slow as shit and everything id a shitty goddamn preorder now which kills any enjoyment out of them since the figures take so frustratingly long to ever come. I want to kill myself because it frustrates me so goddamn much i dont enjoy this shit hobby anymore i dont enjoy anything anymore.
>>11834403>Other than that, distribution has never changed.Sure it has.Stores are different, the entire store exclusive concept is different.Getting shit shipped for free is different.Places like Ross having high end collectibles like Bandai and SHF is different.
>>11835587but it's still the same. We still dont get ALL the Marvel Legends, Transformers, Necas, McF's and all the vidya lines in store. Only SOME of them can be pre-ordered/readily available in other stores, but not all the time

Anyone else heard about this?DHL seems to be the first domino to fall, but wouldn't be surprised if other shippers end up having the same problems after July 8th.I'm curious where a lot of you buy your stuff from. Do you wait for it to come to the US through someone like BBTS or buy it directly from another company overseas?
>>11845432No more tearing packages apart for customs?
>>11845592At least not with the last batch of packages they sent off. In theory, packages should be safe as long as they use the right HTS code and they aren't opened by customs (and found in violation).It's gets iffy though if you order something like say a Picconeemo doll. The package says its intended for children, the HTS code that *should* be used is the one for dolls to avoid falsely entering information but (1) the HTS code for dolls requires CSPC material testing and (2) it's 99% going to be an adult buying it for themselves and there's no way for Customs to prove that one way or the other. Which do you enter it as, as a business if you want to stay above the board?That's where the uproar of this all comes into play. There's still a wide variety of things that are in the gray or black areas - plushies, candy toys / blind boxes, dolls, action figures made for kids (SO-DO), other toys made for kids (tokusatsu toys) and so on.
>>11845624From my interpretation, it seems they would have to say its a doll but acknowledge it doesn't have the testing and thus it would be destroyed by customs. Isn't the intent of the regulation effectively banning dolls (or other kid toys) without the testing from being imported because they could be "dangerous"? Not the answer anyone here would want to hear but it sounds like the intent of the regulation: to keep kids toys that aren't tested in the way the US wants from being imported into the US, whether by huge corporations or individuals. The US doesn't know or care if adults are buying the toys for themselves. It can't be reasoned with either. It is a hammer and all it knows is how to drive nails and smash toys. I don't see a legit solution for legit Japanese stores to import kids toys without the material testing.
retarded laws are also robbing us of kawaii menhera cosplayers :(

>>11851845Also yes, I am autistic.
I'm only starting to get into model kit building (well, *back into*, since I was into it for a while like 20 years ago), and my question is: are all Heller models as rubbish as their 1:100 Caravelle/Concorde double set, or did I just have extremely bad luck?
>>11852002You picked their worst kits. There are better in Heller's range, but there are better brands too. I personally would have steered you towards a Zvezda small subject kits (the History on the Table range as it is currently being marketed as), or the main line of Airfix kits in 1/72. Neither of these are perfect, but they are what you should look for at your skill level. Something not perfect, but good enough to as to simply learn how to correct fitment issues of parts. Price is another big factor. You will mess up, but you will mess up with something cheap, if you use your mind when making purchases. Professionalism takes hundreds of models of practice, so work your way up slowly.You should also invest in some quality paints. I am taking it that you use a paintbrush, rather than an airbrush. If you are, then a water based acrylic is best. Those of Vallejo and AK's 3rd Gen line (not the Real Color line) are the best for your needs. Tamiya and Mr. Hobby paints are best when airbrushed, the Mr. Hobby's Aqueous line is somewhat brush friendly, I still have found it inferior to its Spanish made cousins.
>>11852034I forgot a but between friendly and I in the final sentence, so forgive me.
>>11852034>You picked their worst kitsThat's the worst thing, it was a gift.But thanks for the quick lesson on paints, I need to do a deeper dive into those one of these days.
