>>11568590Somewhat related, I say a youtube video of all the figures you could get of other characters in that game. Lot of baf stuff.
>>11568617They won't ever go that deep
>>11568590I'm really overwhelmed with all these releases
>>11568618A lot of them are already out. The main ones, anyway like white suit Kingpin and some obscure stuff like Bonebreaker and Pretty Boy.
>>11568618Pretty Boy, Bonebreaker, white suit Kingpin, Jigsaw and Bushwacker exist. Fill out the rest with generic thugs and robots.
AnthonysCustoms won
>>11568630Forgot about Dum-Dum Dugan.
>>11568630Damn, I just realized I had like half of them already lol. Almost makes me want to pick up the 2 pack even though I already am happy with the ML Punisher, and have the Mafex on order, and prefer the latest Nick Fury from the 3 pack.
Been having a lot of homosexual thoughts lately do to my meth use and it’s made me realize collecting a bunch of action figures of ripped dudes was a manifestation of deeply repressed homosexuality. I don’t think I am gay but it’s made me realize collecting action figures is.
>>11568590The background almost straight lifted from the game which they don't have the rights to is a bit too cheeky and in poor taste, imo. Some parts have been altered, but most appear to be the same, down to single pixels.
>>11568503 I can't find it, either. Closest thing was the "unleashed" Venom
>>11568590I'm really underwhelmed with all these releases
Does anyone know what head would work best for a Lord Mar-Vell head? Basically just a Maskless Mar-Vell, but I just want to throw him on a Vulcan body and he can be my stand-in.
>>11568710Then you suck
>>11568767it's 90% reissues with new deco.
>>11568693Wait, they did this without the rights?>>11568738Stick with me here.... Arcade.
>>11568773They're doing this pack and the Marvel Vs Capcom figures without a license from Capcom, because they only need the license of the Marvel characters from Marvel. They keep refering to them as "the arcade games" and similar expressions, under a generic Gamerverse tag without ever mentioning the names of the games or Capcom. They just imitate the portraits, the training stage background... and I assumed that they weren't actual assets from the games, but I just compared this background to the original and it's mostly ripped pixel by pixel with some minor changes, which I guess it's ok since Capcom surely has better things to do than making an issue about it.
>>11568773Hmm. Going to try it on both bodies. Might work. Other one I thought of was Adam Warlock without the guyliner, but I still need his head.
>>11568791>since Capcom surely has better things to do than making an issue about it.Maybe... do they just rely on Monster Hunter nowadays pretty much? Still feels kinda scummy, like those bootleg companies selling "Man Dressed as a Bat" figures.
>>11568799Warlock might look better, you'd need to paint the eyes anyways. I guess it depends what kinda expression you want.
will we get Barracuda next?
>>11568801>Caring about multi-million dollar companies hurting each other's feelings
>>11568813Hey, it matters to the consoomer because the figures could be pulled from shelves if Capcom sues, making them hard to find or expensive. Once something is pulled due to legal issues it becomes a “limited edition” by accident. Scalpers jump in, prices on the secondhand market inflate fast, honest fans get priced out. Imagine a figure that by all rights should cost $25 suddenly costing $200+. If Capcom feels burned by unlicensed use of their IP they may refuse future deals with Marvel or Hasbro. This could block official figures of Mega Man, Street Fighter, etc. in the future. That's why this matters.
>have five figures and a 2 pack coming in today. >Another two on Tuesday>Still too depressed and can't motivate myself to even care about opening them Hello darkness my old friend
>>11568856Get into action figure photography. Do something creative with the shit you buy.
>>11568859I do usually, but I've been so depressed and unmotivated that I can barely even bother opening my toys let alone actually taking pics with them. I've just got some shit going on, I whined in the last thread if you want the long version.
>>11568856Open one thing a day and enjoy it. Don't open tons of stuff at once.
Another day of me hoping they make Man-Spider as a Marvels Legends. I think that is the last 'must have' Spider-Man figure, besides them releasing a 'perfect' Venom figure. Every Venom released figure has something slightly off about them, yet they get closer and closer each time.>>11568856You can do what I did:>open them all at once when you have time>realize you are hoarding toys>urge to sell/get rid of stuff to make room for the stuff you care about mostI'm about to go through another purge/sweep. It is good for my soul and reminds me of how foolish I am with how much I purchase.Also good to go through your pre-orders and cancel stuff you don't feel as strongly about anymore.
>>11568906I kinda wanna get rid of my MCU collection, it's just in tubs in a closet not being displayed. I used to really enjoy it back when I built it up pre-2020. But, I don't really care anymore, I may just get rid of all but my faves. My comic themed stuff though, I still love, I'm just too unmotivated to do literally anything, can't even bring myself to focus on playing vidya.
What a nice Spider-man
>>11568908Care to post a short version of what you posted last time?
>>11568909Legs look shrimpy and undefined, like they slapped it on from a totally different figure.
>>11568909Looks awful. Looks like Super7 shat it out.
>>11568912Just health problems, family stuff (more health related shit), my dog passing away and general loneliness. Feelsbad.jpg. I did at least work up the motivation to open up the Iron Man/Mandarin set. I was curious to see what changed they made on Extremis Iron Man, since that's my favorite suit after the classic. Not only did they give him better colors, imo, but they added a bit more articulation than I thought they would. They added an an crunch, butterfly joints, and made his neck a separate piece so he gets pretty insane range now.
>>11568968The new one can actually pull off a decent looking superhero landing which is kind of a first for a Hasbro Iron Man. They've always come kinda close but never could quite nail it otherwise. The added articulation really helps. I can see them doing something similar with whatever suit they choose for a Maximum Iron Man.
>>11568913But that's how his character model looked in spider-verse.
>>11568970And then here's Mandarin. Kinda boring tbqh, even though he's technically accurate to pair with this Iron Man, since they were both in Fraction's run. Still, not terrible, glad to finally have him.
>>11568970Didn't they show the original could do it or was that a hasbro photoshop?
>>11568968Sorry to hear that, anon. Honestly.You don’t have to force it. Maybe just leave them in the box for now. They’ll still be there when you’re ready. Even just opening one and sitting with it for a minute and posing it might help but if not that’s okay too. There’s no pressure to "perform" there. At the end of the day it's just plastic. Think of them sitting in the box as a reminder that your interest is still there. It's just kinda quiet right now.Big tasks (like opening a ton of action figures) feel impossible when your brain is heavy. Break stuff down into smaller tasks. Find or create one thing to look forward to. A figure to open, a new action figure project, a new tv show, whatever. Try to stick to some sort of routine, however small. Brushing your teeth, drinking a certain amount of water, something small. Depression says “you’ll do the thing once you feel okay” but it’s DOING the thing that moves you toward feeling okay.
>>11568996PIcrel is what Hasbro did and you can get it pretty damn close to this, but you can only get the head up properly in this exact pose, whereas the new one can be altered a bit without it being exactly like this.
>>11568996It was just an angle trick, instagram photographers do it all the time
>>11568981Which base body did they use for Mandarin? Seems to have been given pinless tech now.
>>11568970I cane they added an ab crunch and even a double neck, but does it have butterfly joints as well or am I imagining things?
>>11568913Its how he looked in the animated movie it is from, Normal human proportions count for nothing.>>11568972Exactly
>>11569011*I can see
>>11569011Why don't you read the other post
>>11569011Yes they did add butterflies. They're nice. >>11569009Not sure. It's definitely not one of the old suits, and it isn't the Happy Hogan one. Matt Murdock maybe? I don't have him. >>11568999Thanks anon. I'm just taking it one day at a time. I have a nice backlog of stuff from this past year that I need to work on too, it just keeps growing. >Try to stick to some sort of routine, however smallI'm actually pretty autistic about keeping to a schedule throughout my day. Shower at a specific time, eat lunch and dinner at specific times, stuff like that. I don't have a problem with stuff like that, it's just doing something beyond getting out of bed and just doomscrolling, which I know doesn't help at all. This past year has just been rough and it's exhausting.
>>11569031Oof somehow completely missed that, my bad.>>11569034Thanks for the info and pics anon. I'm excited to get my set in even more now. Kind of a weird ask but how useful are the butterfly joints on Iron Man? Like how far can he cross his arms compared to pic-related and if they can move further inwards to the chest?
>>11569044He can't really cross his arms that much further than four picture but he can bring his arms a lot closer to the chest.
>>11569047Thanks anon, that's exactly what I wanted to know.
>>11568805Warlock worked really well actually but I don't want to lose his head because I really like Adam Warlock. Now I gotta find a cheaper way to get a second one.
I hate ratchet joints.
>>11569056I hate ratchet joints when used with gummy plastic. I've had some Hasbro figures just sheer right off by the shoulder because the soft plastic they used for the shoulder peg couldn't withstand the ratcheted indents of the hard plastic socket and it would just lock the peg to the point where twisting the shoulder inevitably leads to breakage. While I've seen them use it on other figures before, predominantly they keep using this engineering on a lot of their recent Iron Men for some reason.
>>11569056Ratchets are very satisfying and durable when done properly on large and heavy toys. But there's not much reason to put them on a 1/12 human.
>>11569056Ratched joints are a reason I like early Revoltech.
>>11568503>>11568700It's this 6 inch venom with a head from the marvel legends comic sandman wave venom
>>11568810My n****. If only.
>>11569104It's still funny to me that they made a completely different design for Venom solely for merchandising and promotional material and absolutely none of the toys matched his in-movie design
>>11569115If nothing else, it made for a pretty cool toy. I still have that figure and I'm pretty fond of it as a movie Venom with comic proportions.
Puck wave Emma is the lewdest.You know you want that version.
>>11568633lil pussy shadowbanned me for questioning his religious stuff.
>>11569157Why are you questioning religious beliefs of a toy reviewer? Don't you have anything better to do?
Soon he will be mine.
Deathbird seems like a wild figure
>>11569247Cheers anon
>>11569034Are they butterflies or ball joints? Can they shift up and down like the new wolverine?
>>11569339Butterflies
>>11568970It really isn't enough upgrade and ugly gold plastic to justify the purchase for me
So I stumbled upon a 'recommended' figure released awhile ago, no real interest in it due to being a game look but I'm curious, why do you think Amazon is so bad now that third party scalpers on their site price Marvel Legends figures lower than Amazon itself now?
>>11568968Something bothers me about Extremis, but I don't know what. It isn't just the glowing eyes since that is something they do all the time.
>>11569441I'm hoping they update the Model 20 mold and do something similar, giving it better articulation and then redoing it as the Pentagon Suit.
>>11569228because being religious is inherently stupid. i'd also question someone eating dog shit.
>>11569483Oh you're an edgy retard.
>>11569483So no, you didn't. Lord be with you.
>>11569104The best part of having lots of Venoms is having lots of heads to swap.
>>11569503Not the place for this my guy. Have a blessed day.
>>11569506>I have no logical response.
>>11568738What about Quasar?Bonus: you get the cape/mantle as well, which should be a good foundation for Cancerverse Mar-Vell cloak
>>11569110Go back faggot
>>11568968An idea is you could modify and customizing your figures like this person does:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jDYGkmHI30Just throwing that out there as an idea. Hope your situation gets better anon and you can enjoy your figures!>>11568970Oh wow thats a big upgrade!
>>11569555But all he can do is crouch and bend his head up more
>>11569554I'm quoting 'Cuda, fake fan.
>>11569526That headsculpt...almost looks like Todd Howard.
>>11569592And those points of articulation are pretty critical when trying to get him in his iconic pose.
The Target preorders sold out. When will the cancelations begin?
I was originally going to skip Cable but I ended up getting him and honestly I don't know which version I prefer. I'm inclined to lean towards the comic design but the 97 figure looks pretty damn good. I also don't have an issue with mixing and matching 97 figures with comic ones. The differing styles don't bug me really. I think I'm going to swap to 97 Nate as my shelf Cable. Which do you think looks better?
>>11569868I'm a bit biased for realism. For an X-men 97 shelf, sure he works, but I couldn't see him as a comic shelf Cable. Especially given the gritty future Cable is from. His colors just look a bit too 'clean' and 'flat' due to the comic style.
>>11569526Looks like Robert Redford.
>>11569868I hate how the new X97 figs are looking like the hasbro fortnite figures. Wave 1 was great, reuse the updated pinless bods and just give them animate heads.
>>11569247Is the 1.5 reissue soon?
>You are now aware of the fact that this Iron Man, too, is Gamerverse
>>11569999Awww shieeet
Maximum Deadpool review https://youtu.be/EnMCJthZQYw?si=w9JzL80zQgZaSQDv
>>11569999 #>this is probably maximum Thor to line up with gamerverse
>>11570197God I can only hope. I've been dying for a new version of this costume. >>11569999I mean, by that logic, astonishing Wolverine is Gamerverse. So is Maximum Spider Man. Or 20th Captain America. Considering, until the last decade or so, these characters didn't really get unique looks for their various video game appearances. The reason Iron Man was using his Extremis armor or Logan was wearing his Astonishing uniform was because that was just their default looks at the time MvC3 released. It wasn't until the 2010s that the characters got shitty redesigns for their various games. Probably something to do with the fact that the MCU updated costumes for every new movie so they could milk merch sales. It works too, look how many of you simp over those absolutely horrendous Rivals redesigns.
Just got this with a broken joint any ideas on how to fix? Thxs!
>>11569104Thank you.The dude is selling it at $35, should I go for it?
threezero DLX Spider-Man 2not a fan of the basketball texture but for an insomniac spider-man i don't mind terribly
>>11570311It’s 1/6
>>11569443>then redoing it as the Pentagon SuitYep. That's what I'm waiting for.
>>11570320>The DLX Spider-Man Advanced Suit 2.0 (Peter Parker) stands about 15.5 cm tall
>>11570170Received for free?
>>11570354Does it matter?
>>11570332>>11570311Scale on these kinda sucks for mixing. they don't really work with anything.
>>11570450For a review, absolutely.
>>11570472Would you care to elaborate as to why? Personally, I don't watch a review for some mouth breather's subjective opinion on whether or not he likes a toy. I watch a review to see the toy in hand, see what accessories it comes with, it's range of movement, if there are any glaring QC issues, so on and so forth. All objective facts about the figure. I don't care if Robo absolutely loves the next Star Wars Black Series figure or if Anthony has a melty because he doesn't like the proportions of the latest Marvel Legends. And you shouldn't either. Watch reviews for their objective facts and not the reviewers own subjective opinion. Everyone has a different opinion, I don't see why you guys get your tightie whities in a bunch just because some dweeb with a YouTube channel has a different opinion than you. As long as they're properly showing off the figure, what comes with it, it's range of motion, any QC issues, and anything else along those lines, the rest literally doesn't matter.Stop being so dependent on what others think and try to use the information provided to you to form your own opinion. I know it's hard for the little autists in these threads, but I have faith you societal rejects can at least figure this out.
>>11570482You realize people who receive the figure free can hide flaws by only quickly rushing over articulation, or showing it at angles that hide flaws, not mentioning loose joints and manipulating the joints as if they work fine, using lighting tricks to hide miscolored plastic, not giving measurements to assure proper scaling, using retakes to hide figures falling over, tilting the figure during articulation to make it difficult to gauge whether range is proper or not and any number of other tricks to obscure objective facts about the figure. They are irrevocably biased and tainted by receiving the figure for free because they want to keep receiving figures for free and will do anything to continue doing so.
>>11570496You're right anon, everything is just one big fucking conspiracy. Take your fucking meds, and watch several different videos of a figure if you're that fucking paranoid about it, holy shit.
>>11570504>>humans like free stuff>WHOA STOP WITH THE CONSPIRACIES THERE JUNIOR
>>11570504They should just not lie and hide flaws in videos :)
>>11570508This isn't even an oversimplification of what I said. You guys argue like shit.>>11570509Name me five videos where they intentionally obfuscate flaws in a figure. I'll wait patiently as you find a handful of literal who channels with less than 500 subs.
>>11570504>>11570508>>11570509NTA and OTOH, I agree that reviewers who get shit for free want to continue to get shit for free; it's different than the people who post reviews on sites, like Crapazom, where it states "incentivized review" or similar. That said, any buyer who looks at shit like YT or worse, TikTok reviews to help them decide on a product, especially anything only ordered on-line where returns or exchanges would be a hassle or difficult, and wouldn't rely on multiple reviews, is an idiot. If I'm looking at reviews, I look at multiple reviewers, even shitty ones that have few views/subscribers, even if I am scrubbing through some of them. I don't, for example, need to have any of them show me barcodes or fucking boxes and can FFWD to the open figure.The rest of you are being stupid imbeciles who probably don't actually buy toys and just being contrary assholes.
>>11570523This is basically all I was saying. Just watch some reviews to form your own opinions. Not sure why you guys had to sperg out about how everything is a big lie to trh and get you to buy a bad toy.
>I NEED AnthonyCumstains to tell me if a toy is good!Embarrassing
>>11570512The real reviews don't come out until someone pays for the figure. Watching multiple shill reviews won't make them not shills.
So she really did sell out after all. Same with Mystique. They just ordered enough for them to last days instead of seconds. I can't believe Target didn't just order 200 copies.
>>11570601Nice non-argyment I guess.
are sentinel and mafex the top 2 1/12 scale atm?
>>11570644Lpzz and Inart are rising
