>>112441662 expensive for me for the whole set, ought to have made these as figure packs
>>11244168head sculpts look decent however
>>11244168Did they reuse the X-Files guy suit body?>>11244169At least the instruments are cool.
>>11244465>Did they reuse the X-Files guy suit body?Looks like it
>>11244083>red rocket>dogSometimes I wake up at night. Pour myself some whisky, 3 or 4 fingers, and STILL think about what the fuck Todd meant by this.
>>11244791>Four suit bodies and some instruments in a set that will inevitably go on sale Sounds like a good deal to me.
>>11245188>>Four suit bodies and some instruments in a set that will inevitably go on sale>Sounds like a good deal to me.Hoping to see that

>>11245249These were great sets, cashing in on the Pirates of the Caribbean movies them around the time I reckon. Shame the line has now gone all to shit.
>>11244083Any good large pokemon sets after this, aside from the big motion ones?
>>11245303Scyther is a great one. Gyarados of course. Tyranitar and the new Charizard are good too.
>>11244166I wasnt collecting Megaconstrux but if they will continue making music bands sets i would do a total dive in.Imagine Freddy Mercury set
>>11245539>Imagine Freddy Mercury setI'd be up for music band sets (smaller diorama setup)
>>11245539Bowie with 4 of his personas Now thats kino
>>11245924>>11245668>>11245273 Civilization falls. MEGA starts making cool sets.Army builders. more than 3 figures in a "line" But of course mankind is dead so distribution still sucks.

>>11246522>>11246523 The cyborgs are good but I think I like these guys best.
>>11246628>The cyborgs are good but I think I like these guys best.Yup I agree, the T-28 cyborgs are asking to be customized! lots of options that i could with redoing and doing more changes but the ones u linked are prob my favs. tx!
>>11246675>>>11246522 (You)Remember when mega show cased this back in 2018/19 ? we were all excited for the possibility of mega doing their own shit without ties to an existing IP
>>11246678 And the Vikings. But ya. There really seemed to be a lot of potential an creativity.. Wasn't it also part of an educational exercise? Seems like a hell of a lot of waste of tooling now - because I can't see it rolling off the line anytime soon. That's why I'm so angry about the company.
>>11246776>>11246776>And the Vikings.Def>>11246776>Seems like a hell of a lot of waste of tooling now - because I can't see it rolling off the line anytime soon.>That's why I'm so angry about the company.Well, that display, if I recall correctly, showed off a "Brave New World" display showing more of a utopian theme complete with a variety of figs in different skin tones but I digress! That display/presentation was unfortunately just that it seems but it gave us some hope for a long standing toyline that was og and was fun.
>>11246801Just like Star Trek gave us hope for the future... and then DS9 showed us what things would really be like by the 2020s.

>>11246904 Well it did allow us to hold off the sour of government that would set off the Bell Riots - for abut 6 months.
>>11246980>unironically accurate depiction of a typical planet from the TOS era
>>11246958kino
>>11246958excellent, was this done by a fan or mega?
>>11246994Why thank you.
>>11247554 I took a scary number of figures up that year - of various scales. and went crazy.
>>11247558
>>11247561This might be the most autistic thing you hear today but I think you should have had foot prints in the sand behind the figures to make it look more realistic
>>11247623No way. Flying Jesus was carrying them.
>>11247643>No way. Flying Jesus was carrying them.Blasphemer!!

>>11247944I remember getting the cd that had this video in those skull sets. Watched it so many times. God bros take me back
>>11247949I was never specifically into Pyrates but I think I watched part of the animation on YouTube. I was really big into stop motions.
>>11247953

>>11247969no problem
I miss 1/18 threads. they just kind of died as HASBRO and Marvel shifted to the larger scales. But damn there's so much out there. LEGO will never do a S.T.A.L.K.R. (non bootlegs) and MEGA sure as hell won't. (unless somehow the game becomes terribly unpopular in a year then MEGA will announce a build with 3 figures max and then they will never make another) I could make a thread but that wouldn't mean anyone would post.
Smalljoes has a metric fuckton of older OoD MEGA figures. They are pricey but where the heck else are you going to find them. Hell, TRU Canada is closing stores now.
>>11250763>80 burgers for the Hazmat shipping container>mfw was able to get two of them when they were new
>>11250763Used to be able to get COD mega at for cheap prices at retail not too long ago.bought the vietnam gunboat set at saveonfoods for half price and got the astronaut set at londondrugs
>>11250847Heh I got a couple of the Halo Cyclops sets at saveon and pic related from london drugs, I remember cuz I was applying to work at a nearby safeway at the time. Never got the job but in the long run it was the best outcome. I remember seeing one or two TOS sets at a different london drugs, pretty sure I bought mine off amazon though. Amazon, TRU and walmart were by far my sources for mega, actually just bought the Renegade Banshee at walmart cuz it was a rollback.
>>11250845 I think I got them forum... maybe $16.>>11250888 I am sure there are sets lying around everywhere. The trick is finding them for a reasonable price because they kind of forgot about them. I"m hoping to find some Vault Dwellers on Ebay or Ali though. I can live with a little parts swapping even. I would rather them than the set.
>>11251125 I spoke to soon. They are already thereas well as hordes of Bee Man and Webstor.
>>11246076>>11246077>>11246073The composition of these photos are amazing.>>11246522>>11246523>>11246518Custom figures are a rarity here so it's nice to see some. I wonder if it's because we don't have a way to buy individual pieces and parts? The fact that you went through the effort of giving the Mad Max guys uniforms is admirable. Bonus points for the seemingly in-scale car.
>>11251191>Custom figures are a rarity here so it's nice to see some. I wonder if it's because we don't have a way to buy individual pieces and parts? The fact that you went through the effort of giving the Mad Max guys uniforms is admirable. Bonus points for the seemingly in-scale cathanks, the madmax/T-28 guys were photoshopped w some publicity ad for the car. i bought some tmnt figures for the blue jkt. only gripe i have is that the figures are not consistent with their part sizes for customs. u can get away with some but a lot of it was hit and miss.
>>11246080dig this>>11251298
>>11251298fake packaging concept.
>>11251303fyi image was from another collector on the mega construx official blog/site i used to frequent, not sure status now but i posted a lot of customs and got inspired including this image i used
>>11250888desert outpost was a cool little set, pissed me off i could a lot of what was around at the time i started collecting ie 2016 but almost around then it was getting hard to get stuff, not impossible (got the Vietnam gunboat - saveon 1/2 price) and got the space rover vehicle for a good price on Amazon at the time. but its tiny sets like the desert outpost I was frustrated in not getting lol
>>11250763>Smalljoes has a metric fuckton of older OoD MEGA figures.>They are pricey but where the heck else are you going to find them.>Hell, TRU Canada is closing stores now.just popped into smalljoes. yr not kidding , not cheap, i seen worse on eBay, who hasn't lol. I see sets in the 25-40 range which i am tempted to get. ali express MAYBE something but its hit/miss there too
>>11251306Now that you mention it, not sure I ever saw that particular set anywhere else. It was almost like saveon and london drugs tapped into a supply of toys that never really made it to shelves at the usual suspects, feel like it was a similar story for those Cyclops sets. And then of course the liquidation centre suddenly had stacks upon stacks of Terminator and AssCreed stuff the one year... The weirdest one for me remains the January 2019 finding of Halo Series 2 blindbags at a Dollarama, 8 years after their original release.
>>11251312 I"m gonna have to see what the lot of 5 Bee Men looks like when it shows up. The Spider-bros will probably work better as more menacing "bad guys" so I will possibly make an order for those later in the month. If MEGA had actually offered them as singles I probably would have bought at least 1 - but they didn't.
Silly question, but the Fallout T.V. series has a female MC - why doesn't' the MEGA set have that option?
>>11251745cool looking group there, custom paint job?
>>11251957 Not mine. Although it is a custom.I just searched and they popped up. People clearly want them. But I bet that's exactly why MEGA didn't make them. Even bootlego has that.
>>11251963>But I bet that's exactly why MEGA didn't make them. mega dropped the ball on the custom craze imo. opportunity lost imo
>>11251745The guy there has seen some SHIT.
>>11251995Many such cases
>>11252013
>>11252037 He's been at his post for enough time to have seen the glow before sunrise and now it is an hour before sunset. He itches from the sand and the small creeping things. The only thing he has eaten was his mandated chocolate ration, some biscuits and an occasional mouthful of water that tastes like chlorine. He hasn't seen a singer person and only sounds have been the trees and birdsong.
>>11252037>>11252055
Charlie?
>>11252197 That you Charlie?
>>11252336something tells me there is an evil curse about
>>>11252704 This is a terrific little fountain. got it from a "halloweentown" display.
>>11252830>This is a terrific little fountain. got it from a "halloweentown" display.Nice detail that says a lot with little....meanwhile...we have ESCAPE from Zombie Island!
>>11252013>Many such casesindeed....it can hit you at any time....recall can be cruel
>>11251745the only one from the group i trust here is the dog on account of that "look". we need stoicism not regrets in our leaders.
>>11252884Doesn't take much either
I just want an Elite Major on the Halo 2 mold.
>>11252881 Good ole zombies.I wish I was shooting a zombie right now.
>>11252888 Eh.. she seems optimistic.
>>11252704 yep rather it was zombies.
>>11253005
>>11253006
>>11253006George Romero would be pleased with that shot
>>11253007
>>11253007When u absolutely positively have to burn zombies to a crisp
>>11253010Are we getting the upper hand here? or is this the calm before the storm?!!
>>11253010
>>11253008 Thanks.>>11253011 Just happen to have it "on hand" somehow.>>11253013 Well it's a flashback from the alien pic. so....?>>11253015
>>11253020 Ya. I would rather be killing zombies.
>>11253023so resolute! yup, we have the upper hand against the zombies.
>>11251298>only gripe i have is that the figures are not consistent with their part sizes for customs. u can get away with some but a lot of it was hit and miss.What do you mean?>>11251745>>11251971No idea. Fallout four, the game the set is based off of, also has a female protagonist, so it also doesn't make sense. Maybe it's because of what happens in the story. It could also be a licensing thing where they can only make toys specifically based on FO4. >>11252037>TFW getting transferred to the Ostfront
>>11253186>>only gripe i have is that the figures are not consistent with their part sizes for customs. u can get away with some but a lot of it was hit and miss.>What do you mean?Swapping parts (arms/legs etc) of a COD fig w either HALO or some other franchises. Not a big thing really Im just picky with keeping scale.
