The whole Simpsons family $19.99I could nitpick but it feels like a decent deal.
>>11070403What scale is this?
>>110704052.5" but they're also making 3.75" I believe.
>>11070403American toys are so fucking ugly
>>11070403Show us those ninja turtle blind bags
>>11070445I posted them in the TMNT general if you want to see
>>11070450I dont see itAlso could you post the DPCI of them for me or at least take a pic of their barcode?
>>11070408No, it's a 5" line, and maybe a larger scale one too but that's not confirmed what size the largest ones with bases are yet. I'm thinking 6-7". The 5" line is being found at Target now too. $12.99, basic hinged and swivel hinge articulation, plus an accessory or two. Again, not super incredible figures, but they seem like a good enough deal for the price. Some Youtubers have reviews up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0AQFHOLJZQ
>>11070403I have no idea how these are priced so much lower than the Sonic lines. You'd think Disney-owned Simpsons would have a much higher licensing fee. Sonic 2.5" figs are $5 each, 4" are $10, and the 5" Prime ones were $15.
>>11070490Have you seen the ratings for it?Fewer people watch it now than the amount of people who watched shit like Fosters Home for Imaginary Children in the 00s.Also, you have no idea how licensing works. Shit like pic is produced for dollar stores. Lots of companies can license expensive series and produce cheapo 12PoA toys.Which really says a lot about how cheap toys actually are to produce.
>>11070403Lol'ing @ Lisa's eyes
>>11070474I think I might buy them all. That price and the fact that Jakks FOMO exists are incentives for me
>>11070403
>>11070490simpsons fucking sucks and nobody gives a shit about it anymore sonic still has a diehard cult following and they haven't completely run their legacy into the ground. and even if they did people would still love it also, OP, those figures are fucking terrible. stop being a consoomer. just because something is cheap doesn't mean you should buy it. would you buy a bucket of trash if I told you it was on sale for 4.99? you probably would because you are buying those garbage figures
>>11070403Super7 really sucks ass
>>11070403some weird fucking sleeper agent memories started FLOODING my fucking brainlike ive been activatedi havent given a shit about simpsons since i was single digit age but seeing this just reminded me of an early memory where i went fucking loco trying to cop some simp toys and all i finally was able to get when i was scouring the land with pops for some simpsons toys was 2 keychainfuckin bart "rofl"ing and homer naked in a towel holding a toothbrushand i made them go on grand adventures with some LOTR figures or something like that, memory fuzzyso yeah i need this shitthanks for the heads up that this existsfinally ill be on my way to acquire some normal simpsons figures with minimal articulation
>>11070649Jakks will probably do a bunch of deep cut characters over the years, they're doing it with Sonic and the figs are cheap and good, but the distribution and character selection every wave is the worst, like 3 Sonic and 1 of every other character per case so scalpers rape the shit out of their fellow collectors every time
>>11070403>3poa hard pass for me might as well just buy the world of Springfield ones at that point
>>11070403I'm more interested in the Killer Krusty doll they're making, but if they make Itchy, Scratchy and Poochie in this line I might pick those up
>>11070683I just want in universe figures like Krusty, Itchy, Scratchy, Poochie and radioactive man.
>>11070450I checked the TMNT general, Its not there. Where did you post it and can you post the DPCI for the blind bags please?
Happy meal toys literally
>>11071397Those usually have some sort of fun play feature though.
The Simpson kids' heads are too big
>>11070403IM BARTMAN
Not really understanding what niche these are trying to fill that isn't already occupied by better figures of the characters
>>11071538maybe a little bigger? but it seems about right I think
>>11071548What Simpsons figures are there aside from the Super 7 ones which are now done and were never at retail for the masses?
>>11071538oh yeah, their eyes amd skulls shouldn't be bigger than their parents
>>11071689but maybe the kids figures would be too small if done to scale. or disproportionate size/cost to make the parents bigger
>>11071548>>11071676maybe anon is talking about world of springfield but those figures were only about 3poa because the legs didn't move due to a stupid talk chip at the bottom of the feet. It is still to date the longest running simpsons figure line, N*CA tried to bank on the nostalgia for it with their weird run of simpsons figures by trying to make them scale with Playmates, but that did not last long.
>>11071692If he's talking about WoS, that's just silly. That was over 20 years ago. There are multiple generations of casuals who would buy Simpsons merch again.
>>11070554This is a good PSA. I saw the 5" in person and noticed Bart had googly eyes too. For anyone interested in buying them, do it in store while it's still an option. If not, order more than 1 and return/scalp what you don't need
>>11071141Same, pretty sure they did show off a radioactive man, or rather a mock up of one ar a show.
>>11070403Whoa, I don't remember Marge being that curvy.
>>11071873>>11071874>>11071876Who even wants this fuck ugly garbage
>>11071874Can all of those donuts be removed from the box or just the one?
>>11072018I would be interested since Jakks makes good cheap figures and will keep the line going as long as possible but I just don't want to dedicate any kind of space it would eventually require to keep a massive Simpsons collection, it'll probably be year 3 or 4 before we'll really know if it was worth it to keep up with, if it's like their Sonic line and there's 20 Homers at every store and he's the only character anyone but scalpers can find then that'll be no good
>>11072018I've wanted ugly posable garbage my whole life, especially after Disney buying Fox increased that chance. What's even worse is now it's a mousecuck brand no less than Marvel and Star Wars now>>11072022there's "kibble" seen between each 4 donuts. If you took them out, they'd be a single piece
>>11071697>There are multiple generations of casuals who would buy Simpsons merch again.okay boomer
>>11072153>okay boomerokay zoomer
>>11070403Why is that Marge so sexual?
What's the dpci for the 5 inch el Simpsones?
>>11072473Don't have a cow man
>>11072473man the eyes on these are scaring me about ordering them online
>>11072473>>11072525>>11072525>525▶>>11072530>>>11072473>>11072530>>11072541
>>11070403Their sizes are absolutely fucked
>>11073505They're 2.5" figures. You have to have more leeway at that size. Making them perfectly in scale would make the kids and especially Magie super tiny and they still want to articulate parts on them. They 5" line has them scaled better.
https://youtu.be/4BP3CLOfHTEGoogily doogily
>>11072473>Eye, Caramba
>>11073641prease understand $10 budget figure
I found a decent Homer. Articulation feels on par with what super 7 did. This is ironically the most articulated Homer figure to date but that's not saying much.I found another Bart but of course he had googily eyes.
I still hate the upcharge probably due to Disney but I hope the line goes long enough for us to see Sneed and Chuck. I'll buy him even if he's googly eyed.Wonder if Jay Sherman is doable...
Why does jakks make most of their 4 inchers with thousand yard stares and no expressions?Several of the Sonic and Mario ones just have a :[ expression
>>11073934I guess they want them to look good from the side too. I also guess it wouldnt hurt to add eyelid expressions
I want to like these but man. Two (three?) different scales. Ugly articulation. Overpriced. I wish Playmates had made another go at these instead of Star Trek.
>>11073901>>11073915how much leg range does Homer have? Is it similar to Mario?
>>11073990I'd say on par with Mario as he can move his feet, but also has bicep and waist swivel.
>>11073977I wish they went with a more expressive face but a lot of modern Simpsons merchandise they went with neutral expressions like most of the lego minifigures and super 7. Not sure if it was a mandate or something.I think this is a promising start especially if they perfect making the eyes properly aligned.
>>11073915>I still hate the upcharge probably due to DisneyWhat up charge?? What other line is doing 5" articulated figures for $13? I was thinking these would end up being at least $15 like the 5" Sonic ones
>>11074042I thought they were closer to the Mario and regular Sonic figures. The Prime ones are bigger, but maybe you're right?
Anyone ever think of this yet?
If anyone is curious how big the 2.5 inch figures are. They have a waist joint so they can sit down which I hope will be useful for future playsets like the Krusty Burger or Simpsons car or something.
>>11070403jfc $20 for something a chinese 8yo made in a sweatshop
>>11074120All toys are made by chinese in sweatshops. You guys fin the weirdest reason to hate everything
>>11074051The main 4" Mario and Sonic lines are $10. The 5" Sonic line is $15 and the 5" Mario movie figs were $20, so these are cheaper than expected for me anyway.
>>11073915they've got to make a 2.5" Steamed Clams diorama with Chalmers and Skinner
>>11073505this actually makes me think the figures are better than i initially thought. not 1:1 to the image but not super far off.
I made a wishlist of what I'd like to see from Jakks in the future. Honestly curious if Apu/Kwik E Mart is off limits.
>>11074186shit didn't think about steamed hams, they could probably make a line entirely out of that.
>>11074188Sounds like an epic meme
>>11074186doubt they would do this. they are only going to stick with shit they know for sure will sell. super 7 took chances with "unpopular" characters so they had a better chance of releasing these types of characters.
>>11074197Doesn't matter who makes this crap, it's gonna bomb either way.
>>11074120>Five dollars for each figure Considering the price of a blindbag, it seems good to me. >>11074186The chaos of having the Sneed brothers in toy form would be kino.
>>11074197it's a wishlist for a reason. We'll probably get Moe, Nelson, Ralph, Thrillho, Mr. Burns, and Krusty easy within year 1-2.They did randomly include Otto. When was the last time he had a prominent role.
>>11074229He's the bus driver and drugs guy, and always in the new intro
Best Bart I could find.
>>11073985If its anything like the Mario and Sonic lines, 2.5 inch will be the superior with playsets and certain characters exclusive to it.
>>11073985This.I might pick up the 2.5 inch ones just because they're nice and tiny, but the 5 inch ones look like hot trash. They went overboard on the articulation being noticeable. Jakks' Mario and Sonic lines hide the articulation fairly well, what the hell happened here?
>>11076235Jakks has started using those stupid separate ball joints for the arms and shoulders that does nothing that breaks up the sculpt more. They've done that for the 5" Mario Movie figs, the 5" Sonic Prime figs, and now these Simpsons ones. They should just do normal hinges like the 4" Mario figures and the 4" Sonic knees are done.
>>11076240Yeah I've noticed that too and it really is ugly as hell. I don't think it even improves the range of motion, the Sonic Prime figures in particular had a really weak range for their elbows.
>>11074186we NEED the homermobile. Im personally holding out for radioactive man myself
>>11073901This looks like it would really benefit from a matte clear coat.
Remind me of the BK ones. Homer can actually stand but the rest cannot.
>>11073901Evil Homer when?
