Old one fell off, so I'm stepping up. Company status:Joytoy: thriving!McFarlane: hanging in thereBandai: they're still around!?Let's keep it to the toys, and no lore.Thread question - is there a repaint that you'd really want, but hasn't been done yet?
>>10954300>TQIt'd never happen but The Cleaved from the Chaos figures. Wouldn't even need new parts.
>>10954300should have just let it die
>>10954319Just fuck off then, subby.
>>10954339it's ogre

Any new leaks since the wolf dudes?
>>10954365never say never anon. sex work is real workbelieve all custodes!
>>10954366I been leaking from the tip of my power sword ever since we got dommy mommy custodes.
>>10954359we need to go bustier
>>10954366>rumor has it thunder warriors were actually all women.>space marines are trans. straight from James ass
>>10954371can we go... bustier???

>joy toy is doing all the lame heresy legions firsti get fists and soh since their the poster legions of 2.0, but why the furries next?wake me when the cool legions like world eaters, death guard, and white scars are announced
>>10954413more sexo
>>10954346it's canon
>>10954359Hate to break it to y'all, but since they're doing female custodes to pander, that means sexy women are offensive unrealistic body types, and instead you get https://youtu.be/MO_0acQfKuU?si=C6E0VZPbp4JZR6HU
>>10954300Dunno if it counts as a toy, but I bought an aquilla necklace from starforge recently, and its pretty niceGood size, looks nice and shiny, the necklace it came with was a little short for my taste but it had a twist latch that's a lot better than "normal" latches that I'm used toGood necklace, wonder if I'll be able to get one of the Emperor pendant necklaces
>>10954444How'd the picture end up upside down of all things?Also >Quad 4sCheck'd
>>10954435let us have this
>>10954447They're Australian, duh!>>10954449Hey man, I'm not ashamed to admit to being a coomer, so I'd be down for sexy/slutty versions of shit! I'm also an aspiring writer, so I would like to see something challenging to the narrative like an exceptional female character in what used to be an all boys club, so long as it was handled in a narratively interesting, but not BREAKING, manner. Unfortunately, with the gaslighting from James workshop "there always been female custodes", it's gonna be handled in the WORST way. No single female custodes, with a chip on her shoulder, something to prove, and an interesting story to tell, most likely just another marry sue, super talented, well beloved, boring character...
>>10954435>74% of girls are overweight slobs>and that's a good thing!
>>10954365
>>10954413something more like this please
>>10955086
>>10955086>>10955088DOM ME, MOMMY
man I hate this coomer shit. Any space marine without a helmet should get killed immediately
>>10955314better?
Any chance we could go back to toys and save this coomer shit for TG?
So with the 30K Space Wolves being next, probably leading into a release of Russ, what's everyone's bets on when new BA stuff hits? Iirc there was a "leak" that said Dante soon? That'd be 40k, which is great, but after getting hands on with the breacher sergeant, I'd love some 30K BA as soon as JT can make them happen.
>>10955588post something instead of complaining?
>>10954300>TQI'd really like some Knights of Blood as they appeared in Devastation of Baal. The red/silver combo is nice and I think they could do some interesting things if they included un-helmeted heads, seeing as the KoB have very interesting physical manifestations from indulging the thirst.

Possible preliminary knight pricing at $1000 usdGuess we'll just have to wait and see if it changes before it goes up in Junehttps://joytoyfigure.com/shop/joytoy-wh40k-knight-paladins-imperial-knight/
>>10957850anyone here planning to buy one?
>>10957850>>10957854That fan Twitter says this is just a reseller, not Joytoy' official site, so this could very well just be a literal placeholder price
>>10954359They will be ugly as manly as shit and you fucking know it. Amazon's series will feature a Strong black woman of colour who don't need no helmet.
>>10957157>literally just a sister of battle in marine armor
Actual Joytoy Twitter is posting solar watch custodes as in stock, so hopefully those will be shipping shortly
>>10957850Fuck, that's pricier than I was anticipating. I guess it makes sense that price would sort of rise exponentially after a certain point, even the logistics of shipping something that huge and heavy with no breakage has got to be a bitch.Hoping >>10957860 is right and it's cheaper. I definitely would like one, it would not only make an amazing centerpiece, but it's massive enough that I could have tons of figures climbing and hanging off it.
>>10957850Hardly anyone will buy at that price. I'm a re-seller and I only sold one Dreadknight. I don't think I'll get any Knights, they'll just take up space and capital for years before I sell them at fire-sale prices.
>>10957969>even the logistics of shipping something that huge and heavy with no breakage has got to be a bitch.Yeah, that sounds impossible....
>>10957854Before this femstodes debacle? Yeah definitely. Now? Not so hot. I'm also cutting down on my preorders and selling off a huge chunk of my existing collection. I'm still hyped for 30K and the primarchs, but I've decided to be a lot more discerning. Mind, I'm one of the goobers that bought a dreadknight full price, but that's because Grey Knights are a favorite of mine.
>>10957474Did everyone forget Trans Sister from the novel a few years ago?
>>10958328No one ready sister books.
>>10958360Point still stands, they already exist.
>>10958374trannys? yes. Trans sisters? no.
>>1095832899% of people here aren't Warhammer 40k fans, so they wouldn't know. They're just bandwagoneers and just repeating what actual fans are bitching about.
>>10958850No true scottsman!
>>10958850And election tourists defending GW's decisions because they agree with them politically (but would never buy a product) naturally
I was afraid that the Iron Hands would end up a little too plain or boring, but they actually ended up being some of my favorite space marines that I own. Their accessories are great, and the color scheme really pops more than you think it would in person.
>>10959075
>>10959078Feirros is great too, but his poseability is somewhat limited by hik being extremely top-heavy. This is the first figure that I might actually consider using one of the included clear plastic stands with.
With a little effort you can strategically break your penitent engine to make it accept all sinners.
i feel like the joytoy stuff is too small for me to enjoy all my other shit is 1/12so I'm inclined to get some mcfarline shitam I in the wrong
>>10959258if you care about scale joytoy and mcfarlane are both wrong for 1/12, too small and too big respectively
>>10959258Uhhh you're free to, but they look like fucking shit compared to JoyToy. Kinda awkward sculpts and virtually no paint. I can't fault them, they're making a bigger toy for cheaper, but shit, it's ugly. I thought I wanted bigger too initially, but they look so bad I just put them away in the closet.Oh, the Genestealer and Flayed One are the exceptions though. Those are the only two I would recommend.
>>10959281didnt answer me at all retard thanks for the useless imput
>>10958228Just make it preorder
>>10959258I think they are ok for the price but you will only get hate for them here. they look cool next to other 1/12 but are technically too big but that's ok for me. the paint is mostly shit and limited posing but not as bad as they look. The genestealer is an awesome figure.
>>10959613What's with the "too big" comments? They fit really well next to a 1:12 figure, very similar to the minis, and not off from any other common depiction.If your autistic and go strictly with the stated text sizes, then the Marines are too short, as primaris is supposed to be 9' tall, which should put them at 9" tall next to a 6" figure.Each line is almost the exact same ratio in each scale (see pic).I wouldn't say either is wrong.
I just realized as I was messing with some of my Dark Angels, has JT never made a regular space marine-sized plasmagun? A lot of figures have plasma pistols, and there are combi-plasma weapons with some of the chaos terminators and a chaos plasmagun with the havocs squad leader, but the only loyalist plasmagun that I can recall them making is the one that comes with those ugly ass stormtroopers. It seems like a weird omission, similar to how they have never made a chainaxe.
>>10959789They made hellblasters which are the new Primaris plasma gun dudes. But they have cords connecting the gun to the backpack. I don't think they made ones without that backpack connector. Rules wise I don't think the heavy ones exist anymore so everyone should be using the non-cabled one? Maybe they'll make another set of toys in the future.
>>10959808I always thought that the hellblasters carried the equivalent of the firstborn devastator marines' plasma cannons, but according to the wiki, they are actually classed as regular plasma guns. Interesting.
>>10959816Yea, I don't think GW has made a Primaris Devastator marine yet. Honestly despise the whole premise of Primaris Marines and wish they'd have just done scale creep without trying to find some way to explain it. No one would have cared and everyone would have just bought the new models anyway.But yea, maybe some time down the road they'll get to them and we'll get some joy toy stuff later. Anyone who purchased the hellblasters know if the toy can have the additional back pack piece and cable removed or not an option?
>>10959823i did some light tugging, they don't come out easily. but if you pull hard enough they'll likely come out, the tubes are a different material and therefore a separate piece that's just glued in. honstly tho it's not really a hindrance, the cables are extremely soft and flexible and have never gotten in the way of any pose I wanted to do. i don't really see a reason to remove them unless you hate how they look or something.
>>10959850Yea. I just assumed since he mentioned Dark Angels, he was specifically looking for plasma guns for Dark Angels and the Hellblaster backpack is blue unfortunately.
>>10959885ah, i see. yeah, in that case just try to yank out the cable and break the glue seal. you can probably even re-insert it later for a friction fit if you want to give it back to the hellblaster (I did this for one of the Terminator thunder hammers that was connected to the arm with a cable).
Khorne Berzerker: KNOCK KNOCKYou: Who's there?Khorne Berzerker: BLOOOOOOOOOD FOR THE BLOOOOOOOOOD GOD, SKULLLLLLLS FOR THE SKULLLLL THRONE!!!!!!Khorne Berzerker: WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?!You: Why?Khorne Berzerker: BLOOOOOOOOOD FOR THE BLOOOOOOOOOD GOD, SKULLLLLLLS FOR THE SKULLLLL THRONE!!!!!!
>>10959823I don't think they will, as they seem to have gone the way of the elder, and have specialized units, with specific weapons. No mixed heavies,.only a squad of ALMOST heavy weapons (hellblasters' plasma weapons aren't quite the same as heavy plasma cannons, desolation rockets aren't quite as versatile as normal rocket launchers, etc).Real shame that when they made the hellblasters', they didn't make the three weapon variants, either. at the time, hellblasters' had an "automatic" plasma gun, a standard plasma gun, and a "heavy" plasma gun, with the heavy one using the cables connected to the backpack.
Has anybody who's gotten any normal human figures also gotten any of the WWII figures from joytoy? They'd fit in really well, wouldn't they? After a weapon swap, of course (give em lasguns or bolt guns).
>>10954359You know they’ll just be proportioned the exact same as the regular custodes. Emps likes his women masculine as possible.
Yoink.
>>10960118kek, nice
When the fuck are we getting Thousand Sons and World Eaters? I need someone for all these loyalists to fight
>>10960256I feel yea. Thousand Sons are my favorite legion.With us getting Geigor Fell-Hand I'm really hoping that signals Ahriman and Thousand Sons for HH are right behind him. Them releasing 40k Thousand Sons at the same time would be perfect. I would seriously consider getting a full squad of 8 with an Aspiring Sorcerer if they make one too.
>>10959719Black series is 1/12 scale.Vintage series is 3.75" scale, not true 1:18 scale, so it looks undersized compared to 1:18 lines.
Where the heretics at?
>>10960285I am wondering since they seem to be following the "Release Legion, then Captains, then Primarch" pattern for HH, then will Magnus (as well as Angron and Mortarion) be pre or post Daemon Prince transformation?
>>10961218Well we got Horus Ascended, but he's also one of the tamer "transformations" compared to someone like Morty, so I'd say it's still up in the air
>>10961218Probably pre, because post would step on 40ks toes, or so I'd hope, at least (they make the traitor primarchs pre-daemonic, and then release their daemonic form for 40k).
>>109592581/12 is the better scale, that most true collectors agree is the best to collect, dont listen to the literal shills in the thread, Joytoy has some massive quality issues, they break easily, shit color scheme (claims to be gold but is closer to mustard yellow), McFarlane is better in every aspect JoyToy is just overpriced crap
>>10961436>No true scottsman>Hates joytoy>Uses "shills" unironicallyHello, subby, back to hating joytoy again? I thought you were excited for their new stuff now that they're 0.4cm taller?Mental illness, everyone.
>>10958270>sell stuff you already had and enjoyed because some of the completely covered armoured figures might be women.This pretty pathetic tbqh
new reveals coming tomorrow, apparently
>>10961218The stormtrooper in question is 4". Now that I'm looking at their exact size, the newer stuff is all 4", rather than the previously established 3.75", so it seems the line crept up at some point.
>>109621623.75 inch scale refers to Luke specifically. The original Kenner line was designed around Luke being 3.75 inches tall, and Mark Hamill is a manlet, so most figures will be closer to 4 inches.
>>10962162>>10962171what does the size of star wars figures have to do with the observed release pattern for the HH line and possible daemon primarch figures?
>>10962162When you're wearing a helmet, you should be taller.Stormtroopers aren't manlets. 6' tall men, not 5'9 females.Anyway, i'd be surprised they would increase the height of their Star Wars figures, since they're supposed to be compatible with the actual vintage stuff
>>10962171And this isn't the original Kenner line anymore, so it looks like TVC is a true 1:18 scale now.>>10962185Nothing, just a small tangent of autism.>>10962186A helmet wouldn't add a whole 1/4", when adjusted for scale, and it does look like the line is 1:18, or 4" tall, now, instead of the previous 3.75"Pic is more of my newer figures showcasing this, besides Luke, which may be my newest Luke, it is not the newest version of him.Just an interesting observation (and clarification for some).
>>10962450Are you stupid or something?
>>10962478In reference to what, exactly...?
>>10962490Just in general
>>10962498That's not how any of that works, but ok, call ME the stupid one...
>>10962531I will. You should feel lucky that I didn't decide to call you retarded. If you continue down this path of being stupid, I may yet have to resort to that.
>>10962450how much a helmet adds depends on the helmet, but still, barely 4" at 1:18 scale WITH helmet? 4" = 6', so you're totally a manlet regardless.Also, it really says a lot about the state of SW because i haven't bought a SW figure in years.
>>10962533Says the retard too stupid to understand sarcasm.>>10962581A helmets thickness varies, but at most, would add no more than 2" to ones height. Regardless that's a negligible amount. It's close enough, really.
NidsAlso I think my solar watch just shipped from CTC
>>10962906
>>10962908Also ultramarines terminator chaplain
>>10962906>>10962908Termagant has separate hands!? That's exciting!Kind of would've liked to have seen the same on warrior, but two melee weapons isn't bad.Interesting to note is how the sculpts don't seem to be based off of the minis (old or new, in the termagants case). Exciting, nonetheless!!! Only these two, though?
>>10962906>>10962908>Can finally have decent sized tier Tyranids for my Kaiju shelve.
>>10962906>>10962908These look rad. Preordered immediately.>>10962909This somehow looks less good than that leaked photo. I dunno if I want it anymore.
>>10962906>>10962908Have they shown or talked about how big these guys will actually be?
>>10962906>>10962908NEED
>>10962906More pictures here: https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/d1uyQnA0yAZKV7QcI2lAgwThere's also some Russian military figures that the NPCs in the pisscord are predictably asspained by.
>>10963006if the plastic stands they come with are all the same size, then we might be able to reverse engineer something from these pics
>>10963267
>>10963267There are images with sizes on them, if we take them as correct here is a rough size comparison.
>>10963267>>10963272Man, opening jaws, AND removable weapons!? They went all-out with these bugs! I REALLY want to jump in these guys, but I also wanna see if they will do a behemoth recolor, and or different weapon options!
>>10963360I don't know if the fleshborer can be removed from the gaunt, you can see there's a tube connecting them in >>10963267, but then again there are seams on both ends so there might be some wiggle roomMight be more like the volkite on that one first praetor than a bolter
>>10962906>>10962908>>10963267>>10963272YES YES YES NIDS NIDS NIDS
>>10963578Well the hand isn't grafted to the gun, like on the miniature, so it can THEORETICALLY be removable. I have magnets for such situations.
Meanwhile, mcfarlane seems poised to release an eliminator figure around this June.Solicitations are already out
Came by just to say grats on the Nids to all you faithful holdouts. Hopefully they sell better than the Tau and Necron.
>>10963310Fucking shit, counting the hunchbacks, Termies are now like a full 6" tall. This is just too big.
>>10964363their existing Phobos body is not too good, and this will require a hooded cloak, sooo...we're either going to get a really clumsy rubber one, or a cheap fabric one. I have no hopes for the printing on the cape making it into the budget.
>>10964418I'm doing my part! (to buy Nids)
>>10963310Couple more actual ones
>>10964611"It's right next to me, isn't it?">>10964612He looks so nervous lmao!
I know this is a toy thread, but I assumed you guys might know the answers to my questionI got recently into Warhammer and besides the figures, I've been checking what games to buy. I watched the trailer for Darktide and since I'm not very well versed in the lore, I was wondering if you guys know what exactly is happening to these guys in the trailer.
>>10963267>>10963272fucking finallybut I do hope we get some of the bigger stuff soon
>>10963310>bet some guy will buy a million of these
What's the best site generally for getting a Joytoy? Joytoyfigure seems legit, but I'm double checking so I don't accidentally order a bootleg or anything.Sorry if this is an obvious question; I don't frequent the thread much.
>>10965252Read the books
>>10965689you can get them on Amazon easily enough, though there isn't a consolidated "joytoy store" like other brands might haveJoytoy itself does have an official site of "Joytoy.com"There are various toy selling sites you can buy from, like BigBadToyStore and CoolToysClub (my personal site of choice)And lastly you can go for the chinese Amazon of Aliexpress, which like Amazon itself doesn't have a unified joytoy store and you'll have to deal with individual sellers, but Ali itself has a pretty good customer support system so you're likely to get your money back if you do get screwed over for whatever reasonas long as you pay attention to reviews or ask questions here, you're not likely to get scammed with these things, and resellers keep their own stocks so what might be sold out on one site might still be up on another
>>10965252chaos is turning them trans
>>10965252presumably psykers of some sort, and the third eye on the helmet on the one on top makes me think its a navigatorno idea about the bottom if they're not supposed to be the same person
>>10965689Like other anon said, there's a few good options around. To add some more reliable, and consistently good priced places, see showzstore.com and their sister site, gundamit.com (I use these most of the time).Ali is the best, though, especially if your going to be buying a bunch all at once, and for the first time, because you can find and stack a BUNCH of coupons codes for some crazy discounts (literally Google Ali express coupons, and try those. If they don't work, spam try them like a dozen times, it might make it work. You really can stack HUGE discounts like 30% or more off).
>>10957474Sphess Maroines are full of all kinds of synthetic organs and bullshit, right? So they're probably full of testosterone being produced by those organs, which means they probably have massive, meaty, 12" clits throbbing beneath that power armor.
>>10965252That is the navigator (psyker who plots the ships course in the warp), the rest are just random crew. They are losing their minds due to an issue with the warp jump. They mention ingame that something went wrong with their jump because the local area is all fucked up from all the Chaos shit going on.
>>10964501It's accurate to the models. Remember, the Warriors are an older mini so they are scaled to the old marines.
>>1096326736,89€ in October>>1096327267,49€ in October
>>10963267why doesn't his gun look like a throbbing cock?
>>10965741I'm on it.>>10965821>no idea about the bottom if they're not supposed to be the same person.The guy seems to be part of the navigation crew, I'll leave the trailer here in case you want to confirm: https://youtu.be/D0Z53bk4lvc?si=yPPZ6eICr4XUD0dF&t=92What I found jarring and slightly confusing about the scene was seeing the dude kinda phasing out (?) unlike the others who were seeing visions, so I was wondering if it he was going through an expecific symptom of the warp.>>10966113I see, thanks for the clarification.
>>10965819unironically this
>>10966298May want to get tested if the cocks you suck look like that.
>>10959084>>10959075>>10959078Fucking love the Iron Hands. I use the bottom arm as stand to keep him straight.I hope we get Morlocks terminators in 30k
>>10965814>>10965846Thanks. I'm leaning towards either BBTS or Gundamit depending on what's in stock. I was considering Amazon, but it's not worth sifting through sellers to figure out which one isn't a bootleg.
>>10960118Beautiful.
Going in blind with HH stuff, I got a Mk. VI SoH Marine, SoH Contemptor, and John Heresy himself on the way.>>10960129>>10967305Much obliged.
>>10967289Damn, I just looked at BBTS, and I never realized how shitty their prices are... Amazon has way better prices.As far as I can tell, there are no bootlegs, as the Chinese don't skim their own, so that shouldn't be an issue. Just go for where's the cheapest, and or ships the fastest.
>>10967289I've gotten most of my JT stuff through Amazon and haven't had an issue, aside from Guilliman having two of the same pauldron, but the return only took, like, 2 days.
>>10965610I ordered six of each.
>>10967289Amazon is awful in current year, just order from AliExpress. JT bootlegs don't exist currently and AE unironically has better customer service. I have only had four instances where a figure was missing something (I have 114, only a handful were bought on Amazon or from the JT website and the rest from AE), and all but one of those times they either refunded the cost of the entire figure or sent the piece that was missing for free: My Castellan Crowe was missing the potion bottle thing that goes on his hip and they said they didn't have the part available to replace that, but from what I have heard, that part is mismolded and all of them that do exist are fucked up and don't fit in the belt anyways, so I don't think it was the seller's fault. I can't speak for Gundamit since I don't use them, but I know that BBTS has awful pricing and I hate that their name sounds like a sex toy shop so I never purchase from them.
holy fuck.... tyranids, finally
When are we getting some daemons? They are long overdue
>>10969449you didn't buy enough CSM
>>10969535Fuck you
>>10969589Wow my phone is horribly inconsistent when taking toy pictures
>>10969589>>10969601that's what happens when you put some sort of a filter over one picture and you don't over another
Any news on which figures will be re-released next?
>>10970521>>10969601Moronic take. Don't you think the poster would be aware of a filter they used? It's more likely that the AWB is compensating differently at different distances, subjects, and lighting situations.
>>10970771Yeah it's obviously not a filter, the picture of all the CSM was taken from a further distance and I think the light I was using was too bright. It looked fine on my phone when I posted it but it looks terrible looking at it on my PC now.
>>10954300New to warhammer 40kSo, how are they joytoy figures? Better than mcfarlane? Worth it? Good quality?
>>10971555yes by a significant marginI would say soyes very much so. Although switching hands is a huge pain
>>10971555Literally the only thing they don't have McFarlane beat on is size, and for a toy line based on a game where you collect whole armies, that's probably a good thing. Joytoy wins on articulation, paint apps, decals, accessories, and overall accuracy to the tabletop models. And the smaller scale lets them tackle some of the bigger models, like dreadnaughts and Kastelans, while still remaining in scale with the infantry.
>>10959258>>109614361/12 is the braindead retard scale and you are shining proof. First guy so mind brokenly autistic that you can't fathom buying a toy that's not exactly the same size and shape as the rest of your toys. Second guy is just a massive faggot but that's typical of almost all 1/12 fans.
>>10971667First guy is reasonable, as he stated that he already has a bunch in 1/12, so it makes sense to want to stick to a single scale, and he says he FEELS 1/18 is too small, in other words, he has awareness that it's subjective. Each is a fair and reasonable argument.Second guy is indeed a huge faggot that will cry about how much he hates joytoy, but then preorder their latest stuff.>>10971555Like the others have said, joytoy is superb, especially now that McFarlane quality has gone down, while prices have gone up. You can pay $50 for a decent 1/12 terminator figure (that should have been like $30-$35 tops), or you can pay less to get the same character, but with much better quality, articulation, paint apps, details, and from a MUCH wider selection, such as the guy with rocket launchers, or the guy with a mini gun, or a guy with a sword, or the white armored guys with ceremonial robes, shield, and maces, or a red guy with claws.I always say, the ONLY reason to go McFarlane is if you like 1/12 scale better, and literally no other reason. Otherwise, choose joytoy, the clear winner.

I have some Heresy stuff coming but I think I am done with space marines unless I see Iron Warriors because they were my boys.No Eldar or Squats coming so far, that's disappointing.Still hoping for some character figures, Fabius Bile, Cypher.But I think I am done.
>>10972101>McFarlane quality has gone downThis is false.Quality has remained the same since the line started and they actually improved a bit by giving the Terminator some weathering, which probably never got done for Imperials.

>>10972269We will ALLEGEDLY be getting a Farseer soon but that's pretty much all the Eldar we will probably ever get.
Why is joytoy so fucking expensive?
>>10972700They aren't if you buy from chinese vendors like 99% of this thread.I'm sure someone will link you to their uncle's aliexpress store within the next hour.And they're priced as high as they are because Chinese companies think their products are as good as Japanese collector brands, which are also overpriced mostly thanks to cost of living being super fucking expensive.Working/living in China is cheapo as fuck and wages are even lower, yet....
>>10972689In that order?
>>10971589>Although switching hands is a huge painThat's not been my experience with em? They're big balljoints, just pick an angle, keep your pressure slow and steady, bingo. It's much preferable to deal with a big ol' ball than the tiny ass kind in say, SHF. Gives the wrists amazing range too.
>>10972476The weathering (of which there isn't much and it's inconsistent) is just thrown on there to distract you from the fact that it's a $50 "Megafig" that's barely bigger than their normal figures, and has next to no paint. It's an embarrassment when you consider gloriously huge and paint slathered figures they released just a few years ago, like Violator.
>>10972700Relative to what? The line scales extremely well, you can get into it at nearly any price point. Yes, there are super complex figures for like $60 each, but basic Intercessors have gone for as cheap as $16-17 shipped. That's like $10 less than a Marvel Legends, and it includes shipping.Learn to use Ali, learn to stack coupons and coins and wait for events, and you will soon be getting some good deals. Even checking in daily nets you like 20-40 coints (cents), with bonuses for repeated daily checkins. They don't let you use all your coins at once, only a small percentage, but it's still free money, and it's nice to get a little knocked off the top. Oh, and compare prices for your item from every major JoyToy store on Ali before purchasing, and then you can pick the cheapest one, or the one that offers the most store perks.
>>10972767Alternatively, get into the ecosystem at Gundamit/ShowZ. Every thanksgiving they sell memberships for like $5 ($10 normally), which is the cheapest way to get in. With a paid membership, you get 3x the points, and if you buy your stuff from there, they add up quick. You can also get points there for commenting.
>>10972476Like, every review of the latest wave has said (and shown) that the figures are more shells, and less solid bricks of plastic like they were before, and the torso joint is REALLY flimsy.Also, they gave them some weathering? They also raised prices by quite the margin (+50%), so not much of an improvement...>>10972696I can't see them ignoring basic infantry, no way!>>10972700Bruh, you can get intercessors for like $17, that's cheaper than a marvel legends or star wars black series. Even the schizo that tells you not to buy the line, buys the line.
>>10972761There's a big difference between a scaly monster and a figure with a lot of smooth armor everywhere.Of course they can slather on the washes on the monster to show off the detail. Cheap and fast.The Terminator gets washes on its skull emblems and that's about it. The armor doesn't hold washes well and can get pretty ugly fast, ala gundam marker panel lining. This is why they instead used sponging on the feet and legs.>>10972767Other 1:18 lines offer bigger figures for the same price Joytoy charges for 4.3" figures. Better quality too and also include working electronics. The Robocop 2 robot in this picture was less than $50 and also features a bunch of extra limbs, moving fingers, etc. Stands up to 7" tall.Hiya is a Chinese company, same as Joytoy, yet also uses more durable plastics. Their toys don't feel Chinese.
>>10972791>Hiya is better than joytoy, which is too expensive>Posts pic of majority joytoy figures, with a single hiya figure>Actively buys joytoy Warhammer figuresMental illness, everyone
>>10972786>Like, every review of the latest wave has said (and shown) that the figures are more shells, and less solid bricks of plastic like they were before, and the torso joint is REALLY flimsy.This is the same retarded logic as people who like diecast because it feels heavy.Bandai uses super light plastic too on their Space Marines, but the toys are still very durable. They use the same plastics for their giant Dragonball figures and their Robot Spirits line, and i understand their reasoning: too heavy and it'll have problems holding itself up.Same shit with McFarlane's Terminator. Anyway, the complaint is pretty shit anyway. There's not even an inch difference in height from their other space marines and the terminator, and the weight difference is 1 ounce between them. 14ounces vs 15 ounces.Nevermind they share the same construction (read: they're hollow in the same places).The "hollow" complaint comes from McFarlane using hard plastics on the backpack part and other armored pieces. IT feels like the same plastic as the Joytoy Dreadnought or Bandai's Robot Spirit figures. So it's not the all vinyl-feeling parts as the normal Space Marines.In other words, it feels less hollow than the Joytoy Dreadnought, which is the same height as McFarlane's Terminator. I notice no one ever bitched about the Joytoy's Dreadnoughts feeling hollow and despite being 1/3rd wider and about 2/5ths thicker, it's only 6 ounces heavier.>>>10972796>having an informed opinion and being able to compare a bunch of lines together am badSorry i can't agree with your ignorantass that Joytoy's figures aren't supremely overpriced for what they are. I'll pay up because it's a property I like... as long as they're actually the scale they say on the box and aren't fragile like their Sisters and Cadian figures.
>>10972807>>10972791Schizonigger seems like he's mellowed out a bit, no rambling about Chinese Communist shills, actually reasonable complaints. What a world.
>>10972808>JT is experimenting with laser printing to apply paintjobs, notice the scratch marks, they are all laser printed with no manual labor.>Color is just random chosen for testingInteresting, will be neat if it gives us more battle-damaged looking troops. I'm presuming the horizontal lines are just because this is a 3d printed proto figure they're using and not to do with paint application.
>>10972812Hmm, that is a really interesting development actually. If they can figure out how to accurately map this tech over sculpted nicks and scratches, we'll really have something going.
>>10972791You moved the goalpost. Ignored that you can get JoyToy figs as cheap as $17 shipped, then tried to make a blanket comparison to Cain as if they all cost $60. If you want to debate on fair terms, quit this dodgy bullshit.And I own that Cain, the plastic does not feel good to handle. It doesn't feel cheap necessarily, but it's lightweight and very hard, which is not a feel I like in my toys. JoyToy's heavy, thick feeling plastic is both satisfying to handle, and feels like it could handle being dropped off a roof decently well. Hiya's Cain would vaporize if I tried that.
>>10972823>If you want to debate on fair termsLOLIf you bought any toyline from China, instead of the company's MSRP, of course you'll get it cheap. Figmas, Figuarts, McFarlanes, you name it, for half off or more. Fair right?If you wanted actual fair terms (instead of waiting for special sales with coupons, clearance prices, etc) judge it on their MSRP, which Joytoy's stuff is overpriced even if they were 1/12 figures. At 1:18? Supremely overpriced.>which is not a feel I like in my toys.So what? You can like them to feel like ravioli for all that that matters.Point is that it's a durable plastic that's hard to break. QUALITY.Go watch any video of people abusing Hiya's Alien Queen trying to get pieces onto the figure. Tiny little pieces that are being pushed in with the strength of adult males, because they're too dumb to heat the pieces up to make it easier, yet they don't break.That Cain has poseable fingers that are smaller than most wrist joints in 1:18, yet nothing breaks.Joytoy has a long history of shitty plastics though, which I've experienced first hand. They used to include extra joints, to minimize that issue, but not anymore. And these Warhammer threads have made me steer clear of their normal sized figures, because Joytoy still seems to continue using shitty plastics. The larger figures seem immune, probably thanks to just being too thick to break easily, though they also still seem to break too.
>>10972835oh shit, I didn't even realize who I was replying to lmao i'll stop wasting my time
>>10972808Never give subby an inch, nothing that he said is even remotely sensible; took 'started from solid bricks of plastic and went to hollow shells' and got his bullshit diecast BS going.Nobody's complained about the dreadnaught weight/mass? Because it's never been reduced by a notable margin, to a clear loss in quality.And then he went from "I like joytoy now" to "joytoy is the worst ever" in like 2 posts.Mental illness.Speaking of...>>10972835>Joytoy is still shit>Still busy joytoy stuffMental illness.
Tartaros SoH, ooh!!Joytoy can't stop winning!!
>>10972874Shit, I thought I was done for a bit, but these guys look seriously nice, the praetor, sergeant and flamer guy in particular. I might be able to resist since I don't have any other seafoam SoH, not to mention no space at all.https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/BqO1TK9dvUslC1fKTRtUtAUnhelmeted praetor head reminds me of gigachad a bit.
>>10972886
>>10972887Another change in shoulder joints, presumably just for (HH?) terminators.
>>10972886Interestingly, the mini praetor has an open-handed powerfist, very nice that they changed it to closed. I wonder if this means they will have slightly more latitude going forward to deviate from the minis.
>>10972886lol, that's an extremely chad head. I was already gonna get this guy but this seals the deal 110%.
>>10972888>alloy jointsI really, really hope this works out. I am very wary of metal joints.
>>10972894That part is not new, all the HH terminators have had metal joints, as did the deathwing terminators. The abbess and the nundams did too iirc. Can't remember about the primarchs. But yes, I suppose we'll need time to see how they hold up.
>>10972895I think Lion did but not Roboute. That big SW guy, Arjac, did too.
>>10972845>Never give subby an inch,what does that mean?
>>10972915https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/not-give-budge-move-an-inchhttps://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/give-someone-an-inch-and-they-ll-take-a-mile
>>10972917but how does it work in that context?
>>10972886Does the sergeant come with a helmet?
>>10972926Sergeant is only unhelmeted, praetor gets both, everyone else is helmets only.
>>10972886I'm not complaining, but I thought that joytoy would release thousand sons tartaros termies instead of the sons of horus since we got Geigor and that one space wold contemptor. So which dread do you anons think is going to be released next? The only ones to be released are Furibundus, Lucifer, Deredeo, Leviathan and Telemon,
>>10972932Furibundus and Lucifer don't have models do they? JT said recently they don't have plans for custodes dreads so no Telemon, which is sad because I quite like them. Probably Deredeo.
>>1097293640k wiki has a pic of Furibundus, however Lucifer doesn't have one.
>>10972938I mean a current mini, those are long, long out of print.
>>10972936>JT said recently they don't have plans for custodes dreads so no Telemon
>>10972956>custodesgood riddance
>>10972924Give him the slightest bit of credit for anything and he'll go "SEE YOU ADMIT I'M RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING HAHA I WIN" because he's a genuine retard who only posts here because he's a no-life troll.He also doesn't even know anything about 40K (hasn't posted a single model, refers to the Sisters of Battle as "the nuns", hurriedly bought a bunch of books off eBay to try and look like less of a casual, etc).
>>10972966>refers to the Sisters of Battle as "the nuns"You say this like it isn't common. If you're going to sperg out at subby all the time, you should at least make them reasonable points. Or you could just ignore the nigger.
>>10972969OK, I should have added some context, he literally called them that because he admitted he didn't know what they were called and didn't care about them. For someone who claims to be a massive 40K fan, that's a red flag.On a better note, speaking of Sisters, it'd never happen but I wish the classic metal Canoness would get a figure. Love this design. Book a must.
>>10972975I don't really like my death korps guys and I've been too lazy to sell them, so I have been thinking of who I could give some of the accessories to, like the book. But I don't have any sisters except the chief nundam abbess or whatever she is. Guess it'll just languish in my loft.
>>10972966>slightest bit of credit for anythingLOL, so basically you act like a contrarian then?So you also believe that Joytoy's WH40k is overpriced, but don't because SUBS HURT MY FEELS?Is that why you need to use Chinese alibaba stores to find the lowest prices to say they aren't overpriced and say you can't use the same chinese stores to say Figmas/Figuarts/PlayArts/McFarlanes are much more expensive?Or that you really don't believe lore isn't lore because it proves the WH40k Joytoy figures aren't to scale?And can't admit Joytoy finally fixed that scale with the WH30k figures?Or that other 1:18 toylines that offer same or better quality at much lower prices exist?Tell me how butthurt you are over me without telling me you're massively butthurt.
>>10973009Post models.
>>10972887looks a little too top heavy, like its just the arms, top of the torso, and head cowl thing physically lowered onto and over normal power armorI like Tartaros armor, especially the part how it was slated to be the new standard issue if the heresy hadn't happened, but these figures just look a little off to me
>>10973084its probably for articulation purposes, but the sharp change in thickness between the upper breast plate and the trunk of the armor doesn't look right, and the legs of the armor look too thin/narrowat least compared to pictures of the mini/art on google
>>10972886These are up on cooltoysclub, the terminators are $47.70 for the sergeant $45 for the others. Praetor is $62.99
>>10972956>>10972957more like transtodes amirite
Banana split/cream custard boys arrived today, and they sure are custodes painted white with some reddish weathering/bloodstains/sand or something as well, honestly don't know what it's supposed to beCuriously only the sword and shield one came with a misercordia, but that's a pain in the ass to stick on the belt so I'm not too broken up over it
>>10973009>+0.4cm "fixes" the scale>Believes it's overpriced, but is still buying the product>Says it's not 1:18, but then in the next breath, calls it 1:18Tell me your mentally ill, without telling me your mentally ill.

Joytoy shit is overpriced, especially when you consider other brands charge way less and are of equal or better quality.Nevermind i purposely avoided all the thinner and smaller Joytoy figures, because Joytoy's plastic is low quality shit. They're more likely to break and these threads prove itAnd the Horus Heresy era figures are literally 1:18. Whereas the Primaris Marines literally aren't. That's how shit Joytoy is, where even you guys were bitching about the change in scale.Of course, I love it, because I got what I wanted.
>>10973825I'd explain how wrong you are, but that would require the ability to properly perceived reality on your end, so I'll just stick with the classic, but always applicable;Mental illness.
>>10973979>faggot who admitted he's a contrarian here >>10972966 says he won't come up with bullshit and contrarian logic to argue why older non-scale Primaris figures are totally 1:18 scale, that shit plastics are actually good, $150 7" figures is not overpriced, and how buying from chinese stores can only be applied for one specific brandGood.
