So I just got this delivered a few day ago, i’m a fan of music & such and was wondering if yall can help me on how to pose him. i’m not the best but i can pull things off
these aren’t my pics but he will be going on a display that has various franchises mixed in
>>11196417Are you the guy who posted about getting him in /fng/?
>>11196449many of us got him
>>11196417>>11196423I don't give a crap about the dude this thing is based on, but overall that is a *nice* looking figure. I like how they seemed to have gone with traditional hands instead of the hinged fingers, those were always the worst part of their Fortnite stuff.Very impressed by the stuff Jazwares puts out and I'd love to see them pick up the 6" fortnite stuff again.
>>11196602He looks okay, but keep in mind this figure was $96 and barely came with anything.
>>11196417If he could write his own music...
>>11196423They're Preternia's.
>>11196705lol wtf are you talking about? he has writing credits on almost all of his songs
>>11196417Really nice looking, and I liked this era/look for him, but the price and exclusivity drove me away. Too bad.
>>11196417Idk, just look at some cool pics of him you like, or just mess around with it till it looks cool. Never heard of this figure.
>>11196753I don't know nothing about whether he makes his own stuff or not, but it's actually very easy for musicians to get "credits" for songs they didn't actually write. They just have to change like 2 or 3 words to get "legal" writing credits.
>>11196417for that price i would have never got him 100dollars for no paint and awfull looking ping
>>11196789yeah well I am a fan, and it's pretty clear he writes a lot of it. He also wrote a lot of songs for other popular artists like Sia, Ye, Travis Scott, Drake, etc. so it's not like he's some fake lying about having writing chops.
>>11196417Fuck off OP. Nobody in /toy wants to see this awful figure. This shit looks worse than the $10 mass produced ones. I'd be embarrassed to publicly admit I spent $100 on this piece of crap. Yes, it actually cost about that much.
>>11196833the headsculpt is not bad, but this is ML quality for that price. It''s not even pinless
So why is this figure so damn expensive at $96? $20 was the standard for the old Jazzwares figures back in the day. Even with inflation, this super duper figure should cost no more than $40 tops. There are import figures with better paint, articulation, etc. for less than this figure. Is it because this "The Weekend" guy is demanding high royalties? I'm a boomer, so I've never heard of him. What are the other 7 pieces that this figure comes with?I thought Jazwares lost the 6" Fortnite license to Hasbro. How could they make this figure without Hasbro coming down with a lawsuit infringing on their license?
>>11196417Corny ass nigga. Was funny seeing him embarass himself trying to be this bold yet sultry guy in The Idol. Glad others agreed too.
>>11197046Pretty pathetic of you to clown on a notoriously shy dude who was just trying to break out of his shell.
>>11196857i have no idea who this guy is, but the articulation is pretty good on those legs, i have 100 plus shfs that cant sit without getting all full of gaps, its one of my pet peeves about japanese figures
>>11197077by 100 plus i meant the price not the ammount ofshfs.
>>11197077>>11197086I DO actually own over 100 SHFs, and yeah, most of them can't sit that well. The old SHFs ironically are better at it because a lot of them have dropdown hips.
>>11196833why do u care what people do with their money? why would u be embarrassed with something that has nothing to do with you?Keep in mind that this is probably going to be the only official Weeknd Figure. it’s also probably Jazwares & Fortnite’s last figure.
>>11197219>only articulated Weekend figure ever>Jazwares last Fortnite hurrah>Hasbro about to dumpster their Fortnite lineI agree on these points that the figure be worth the MSRP. I paid double MSRP for pic related because I'm a huge fan of the design and I know it's going to be the only 1/12 articulated figure of Halo 3 Chief. That said however neither my figure nor yours deserve praise for articulation for doing the bare minimum.
>>11196833>$100Yikes, for what looks like a kitbashed custom.
>>11196417I thought he died after he used his Virginal powers to restore a human life?
>>11197250Yeah, I have some figures too that I bought because they were the only option and I was desperate, but I would not really defend the purchases. I know I was a fool, but sometimes fandom makes you do dumb shit.
>>11197250>I know it's going to be the only 1/12 articulated figure of Halo 3 Chief.idk, your logic kind of falls apart for me here. Halo 3 was already like 15 years old when that figure was released, and it's still one of the most memorable franchises in gaming. I think we're going to continue to get Halo toys for a long time, and it's not at all inconceivable to think someone will take another crack at 3 Chief at some point. Vidya franchises and toys go together like cheese and crackers.
>>11196857>So why is this figure so damn expensive at $96? $20 was the standard for the old Jazzwares figures back in the day.This was a super limited, direct to consumer figure. Probably only like 1000 or less were made. Plus they couldn't make it 6" since Hasbro had that covered, so they had to make this 6.5" and thus couldn't re-use any parts from their older 6" suited bodies. Still absolutely a piece of garbage and not worth even a fraction of that $96 price tag though.
>>11197073Pretty pathetic of you to not only give a shit about some millionaire who would look down on you but to spend $100 on a plastic representation of him.
>>11197832I didn't say I bought the shit, I don't think it's worth it either. And newsflash, every single thing you like, from music to movies to toys to games, is run by a "millionaire who would look down on you." what you want me to do, quit having hobbies entirely? shut the fuck up with your hypocritical ass.
>>11197708>No you can't buy a passable 6/10 figure of your favorite design!>how dare you be desperate!I'm not unhappy with my purchase I just wish it was better at the end of the day. No reason to be so petty and spite a company for taking a crack at such an iconic design. Ultimately 1000toys only doing some weird artist redesign and "Chief but TRENDING AND NEW" is shitty considering they didn't bother researching that the two best selling Halo games are H2 and H3 meaning fans deserved at least a Mark 6 Mjolnir Chief from them but Infinite Chief not selling well must've scared em off to Reach. >>11197721>fifteen YEARS for a 1/12 Master Chief figure>dude just wait a few MORE YEARS trust meYou do realize 343 is rebranding and remaking Halo Combat Evolved in like 3-5 years? It'll be another decade before Chief dons Mark 6 Mjolnir again and even then it might look fundamentally different because 343 can't fucking help change something about the design. Also 1000toys already made Infinite Chief which to me is already too different from Mark 6 Mjolnir and are busy releasing Noble Team which won't sell well because Reach is the black sheep of Bungie Era Halo games. I admire your hope but Halo is a walking corpse at the moment and won't be "reborn" for quite some time.
>>11196803truly
>>11197873>I didn't say I bought the shitYou did and youre trying to backpedal. Imagine buying a figure of some lame ass corny nigga. Can't be me!
