So, Lego Pokemon smart play Pikachu leaked, he will be released in the summer... the summer pokemon sets will be similar to this... sigh
>>11585424>>11585385I hate Lego with all my might, heart and soul. Mega Construx forever
>>11585424This isn't real...... right?
>>11585493I wish
>>11585416Any idea if Miraidon's hind legs can unfold, or is it stuck in Full-Power mode?
>>11585424WTF how does it look worse than the Mega Bloks one????
>>11585424I would always enjoy laughing at modern lego
>>11585416Who is making those?
>>11585718The *dons? They're Bandai's Pokepla, plastic models.
Nobody likes gen 9. We barely tolerate gen 8.
>>11585725I do but I'm trying to stop buying mid toys from Gen 6 and up. I'll probably buy annihilape when I find it.
>>11585725I enjoy some of Gen 9 but not much. Gen 8 can go fuck itself though apart from Orbeetle.
>>11585725Then why it sold so much
>>11585725Gen 9 rocks
>>11585424Is everything used an existing piece besides the face? I guess there's something about not creating new parts and only using generic bricks unlike all the Mega stuff. That said it doesn't look good though.
All the Jazwares trainer stuff goes on clearance by me. Nobody wants it.
>>11585854You got a side hustle opportunity there
>>11585861people here want them? Which pokes?
>>11585854It's like that everywhere. These are all available online easily aside from people in Canada apparently. But Cinderace, Golisopod, Zeraora all hit clearance. Mega Charizard sold better and most sold out in store. Deoxys hasn't started hitting clearance yet but is still all over many stores.
>>11585889Interesting how it's flipped at the other end of the pond.Zeraora barely appeared for sale, Golisopod and Cinderace sold out, Mega Charizard, Deoxys and Rayquaza are still plentiful in stock.
>>11585911The US got way too much Zeraora, Golisopod and Cinderace. Every store had a ton and dropped down to clearance as low as $7 in some areas. Cinderace and Zeraora are just not good figures at all so nobody wanted them
>>11585719I don't want plamos. I want Epic/Selects
>>11585998too bad
>>11585998Yeah just like they released Zacian and Zamazenta lol, jazwares it's too lazy and those designs are way too complicated for them and even if they do it, remember that because of the amount of details, any figure they could possibly release would add every horn or crest to the total height of the figure, making them super underscaled
>>11585980I think that's the problem with the US vs other countries. Because it's so huge, they always overstock what they do get and then it goes constantly on clearance.
Here's some recent figures I've gottenThanks to the anon who posted about the regice. It's worth it. The creator, "ToyNerdProd" on Etsy, is making the other regis too apparently.
>>11585424Meanwhile people making stuff with existing parts...
>>11585424LMAO
>>11586598Mega Construx did heads better
>>11585725truth
>>11585725Sorry bro, the Switch games are better than the DS games. I know it hurts to hear since those were your first ones but it's true.>>11586598The regis are remarkably good, Metagross is pretty on point too, well done.
>>11585424Lol
>>11585424Pathetic.
>>11585424Why are the eyes lower set than the nose? Like seriously, you can put a straight edge from the bottom of one eye to the other and the nose is still a little higher than it.
Smyths NL opened online order for these three.
>>11586984The time has come.Just need Talonflame & Goodra for Kalos and Dracovish for Journeys. Moncolle so smol.
>>11585725I stopped at gen 6, and I only finally got around to it during covid.
>>11586570That's pretty nice but also like twice as expensive as what I was expecting.
>>11585416What are the best Pokepla to get?
>>11587121I haven't built anything since before Groudon's release, so can't comment on those yet.Picrel are solid builds, except Garchomp's hole-covering stickers.If you just want something quick that still looks nice, get a slowpoke.
>>11587107I buy a lot of 3d printed figure parts. A 1" tall unpainted head is usually around $10 so this isn't too surprising to me I guess.
The poor man's Regice option is here but its only 5" tall and less refined and the arms cant hold the posehttps://www.etsy.com/listing/1901153415/regice-legendary-pokemon-desk-decoration
>>11587128>Gengarbased
Found this big guy at Gamestop. The manager said they also got another Metagross as well.
>>11587121The Gardevoir's only stickers are the eyes and it's a really solid one to get. The ones the other anon are good but most of them have other figure options so if you wana start with something that doesn't, get the Gardevoir.
>>11587549>>11587121Gardevoir is the best one>>11587107It's a bit more than scalper price for selects but I'm a big faggot for hoenn and I want to support them so they make a regigigas someday. >>11587145Looks ok from behind
>>11587760>the chad deoxys
>>11587769Yes
>>11587760>Anna trainerBased
>>11587894All those scale so bad
>>11588183If you're thinking anime, yes.
>>11587894Games
>>11588225why gassy so big
>>11588193If anything it looks like the anime size actually.
>>11588230extra gassy
>>11588397kek
The Gastly line is literally amorphous. The games have different sizes now. The old Pokedex and anime sizes were always silly anyways. >>11587894She's awesome. I mostly use her as a stand in for May. I have a suspicion she may have inspired may's design. I also think a scene from the Shin Chan adult empire movie possibly inspired the opening to rse and that Wes from Colosseum inspired Allen Walker from D. Gray man.
>>11588465Lisa was my favorite movie character and her outfit design had similarities to May.
>>11585725Retard
>>11588816he is not wrong, gen 9 is trash only a few mons are cool the rest are abominations
>>11585719The potential was killed because of the stickers
Should I go ahead and buy all Mega Construx Pokemon sets left?
>>11588614Oh, already showing the new wave?Blokees rolling in success.
>>11588614>>11588948Teaser for CTE, whatever event that is.
>>11588950China Toy Expo, Oct 15–17, 2025.So more news next week.
>>11588950>>11588614How do we get these anymore? I thought tariffs ruined it
>>11589489Book a vacay to China.
>>11589489Basically get fucked and pay the tariff, there is not another way. Also lucky for us, blokees produces shiton of toys for every line they have, right now there are still plenty of stock for the first ever blokees' pokemon wave so you can at least be sure than in a year from now, this new wave would still be up and MAYBE the economy would be better or at least you would have more money I don't know
MFC has a November US release for the Snorlax wave of the Blokees. Now was that added on there just cause BBTS has them or is there actually a more widespread release?
>>11589688because of BBTS. People on MFC are idiots and never have any insider info
>>11589489>>11589673unironically, aliexpress.I imported Scyther and it was a little bit more than like BBTS had it (It was around $33 i think) but i didn't have to pay any tariff or import fees.
>>11589890Same, still gotta buy Snorlax but he's going for almost 40.00. Waiting to see if he goes down. Also really hope we get more Kanto and Johto mons.
How can I remove this plastic or glue residue from my Jazwares figure, I can't switch it out due to being in Canada it was already hard to find and the store only had 1. Rubbing alcohol safe?
>>11591117high percentage rubbing alc and acetone are good for removing paint. I don't think there's any way to remove that industrial glue they use
>>11591117By stopping buying Poorwares crap
>>11591143>Stop buying>Residue is still on toyAnon you faggot, you lied!
>>11591187Well, not buying poor-quality toys from a brand that does a bad job helps you avoid these kinds of problems.
More blokees S reveals
>>11592467If the arms and legs are ball pegs and can articulate that'd be great. I wonder if Corphish is just a one-off (Ash did have one) or if we might see a Classic-M show up where the more mid-sized Pokemon might be able to show up, like Crawdaunt.
>>11588614>>11592456>>11592463>>11592467Guessing Quaquaval and/or Empoleon will get L size this wave. Still hoping on Blastoise, but that's gonna be a lot of water for a single... wave.
>>11592537nobody would buy quaquaval lets be real
>>11592465>>11592467Oh fuck this is great
>>11592465Based>>11592463>>11588950Kinda cool>>11592453Unfortunate. Why so many water types?
Machop and Galarian Farfetch'd round out wave 3. It's cool that Machop is quite well articulated. Hope that continues where possible. Also Sirfetch'd as an M (if it ever exists) like Crawdaunt would make sense, and a Machamp in L seems to be bound to happen.
>>11592675Crawdaunt and machamp would be nice. I've been hesitant to buy the tomy machamp because of its face. This machop looks fine.
>>11592675What is this "M" you guys are talking about? I thought it was just this S series and the L series for the larger figures.
>>11592465Really cool, never thought he'd get a figure like this.
>>11592692M for Mexican It's hypothetical
>>11592692Ya, purely hypothetical/speculatory. A place to fit in the mid-sized Pokemon like those mentioned, or some of the starter mid-evolutions, some of the bigger Eeveelutions (some like Flareon could fit S, given big ones like Slowpoke), etc.
>>11592689You know, this guy looks a lot like the recent articulated gashapon Kinnikuman.
>>11592707I understand. Just wishful thinking. I think the one larger figure of each small wave is basically an M sized figure. Psyduck, then Slowpoke, now Machop even tho its on the shorter side compared to how big Slowpoke is.
Well Blokees actually surprised me by making corpish and machop, I thought it would be only shillmons and starters. L size machamp would surely be made
>>11592465>>11592689We're finally getting 1/12 small guys, and they're posable. I had to use moncolles and jazwares to fill that role
>>11592773Machoke never dammit
>>11592798none of these are 1/12 tho. Some are close like Psyduck but all the others have been bigger
>>115928021/11 then. Still closer than what others have done
>>11592805yeh many of these seem close enough. Machop may be an exact match tho
>>11592465>>11592467how big are these bad boys?
>>11592675
>>11592924
>>11592925
>>11592467>>11592924>>11592926I'll get these 3 at least.Blokees picking up a lot of things lately. Even the powerpuff girls lol
>>11592927These better be finally good. 2016 or not, there haven't ever been good PPG toys
>>11592460MY BOY!
>>11588230Pokemon can be dex size, small, Tiny, large, and extra large. I think as long as the scale is kinda okay you can just say its a small or large variant of the Pokémon.
>>11592986There is no reasoning with a scaletist, anon.
Hoping Blokees makes these one day with the options being wide open now. Geodude with chop/grab hands options, long tongue Kecleon, biting Mawile.
>>11592986This is a shitty idea
>>11593134Exactly. They've got to be close enough to the correct original dex scale. >>11592846These 'Small' series figures are all around 2.25-3" tall.
when's the next large wave, last one was ass
>>11585416Epic Metagross is back on Gamestop, and just in time for a BOGO that's going on
>>11593311No news yet. Probably in a few months.>>11593134In S/V it's much less dramatic than that, PoGo is just weird.
never done model kits in my lifewould you say blockees is a good entry point?there isn't any painting or delicate tiny stickers needed to be put on which is why i am temptedthese also just look like the best articulated pokemon figures and they seem quite cheap and chinese sites
>>11593311Probably shown coming week. These were all teasers for CTE.
>>11593387Blockees aren't even really model kits imo.The L-size are mostly in a tray, you just have to attach the limbs etc to the torso.S-size are basically bigger kinder surprise eggs.Pokepla's the cut & assemble & sticker/paint plamo.
What Pokes are you guys waiting for and in which line? I really want a good Mewtwo.
>>11593405blokees inceleon would be cool
>>11593405I just want a nice standalone Weezing and Arbok for my SHF Team Rocket.
>>11593405Blastoise, Swampert, Lati@s and Salamence from SelectPolitoed, Darkrai from Blokees
>>11593405It's ridiculous how not even gamefreak can produce a good looking 3d mewtwo. As of today, blokees it's pretty much giving us the best sculpts that articulated pokemon has seen in years so MAYBE their mewtwo would actually be good
>>11593634arent the blokees just the 3d models? China doesnt make new shit
>>11593405BlokeesVenusaurBlastoiseRaichuNidoqueenNidokingAlakazamMagmarKabutopsAerodactylDragoniteMewtwoMeganiumTyplosionFeraligatrAmphirosAggronSelectBlastoiseHo-ohKyogreGroudon
>>11593405i have my top three already so i'm already in the bonus round as far as anything else i like getting a release is concerned
>>11593405>What Pokes are you guys waiting for and in which line? I really want a good Mewtwo.i'm waiting for Pokemon Select Giratina.i will buy two - one to play and one to keep in box
>>11593640If that were the case charizard would look like fucking ass so NO. Everything blokees do it's their own sculpt
>>11593134>that's a shitty idea he claims yet posts an image showing exactly why it's a great ideaok
>>11593707the charizard model in scarlet is great though
>>11593640You're so god damn dumb. A 3d model is never a 1:1 copy when in toy form. They have so much articulation and other production crap they have to do that provides tons of opportunities to have stuff look wrong or get fucked up. No toy is ever as simple as taking a game's character model and just clicking "make action figure" or however you think factories are making figures.
>>11586898>>11591187>>11585424"Don't stop you little yellow rodent!!"
>>11593405I just want more obscure mons and less starters. Exeggutor, skitty, kingdra, salamence, Nidoking, armaldo, vespiquen, tropius, camerupt, stantler, wyrdeer, girafarig, ampharos, miltank, a decent tyranitar, claydol, milotic, cacturne, kecleon, manectric, clefable, vileplume, roserade, dusknoir, glalie off the top of my head
>>11593833>>11593405And politoad most of all
>>11593692BASEDDialga and Palkia too and Arceus
New leaked megas are so fucking horrid I hope blokees or jazwares never waste a single slot of their waves making any. I cannot believe someone got paid for making those designs
>>11594208We'll have to suffer at least a year of them until gen 10 and then everyone will forget. Blame the zoomers who begged for megas to come back, they were never good.
>>11594230Megas are a shit idea but they all could simply be what mega charizard X is: just a cooler charizard. Instead they are doing those ridiculous designs that look like someone from the steven universe staff it's making them
>>11594267Since the rise of goofy designs like things from Fortnite, many Pokemon designs have leaned into that instead of makings things that are cooler or scarier like earlier generations
>>11594230Zoomers (DS babes) are the ones who hate megas. Actual OGs, and the target audience of children, love Megas.
>>11586852Good bait made me reply
>>11594392There are like 5 good megas, now try to defend yellow skarmory with huge ass sandals
i'd take a haxorus select or a blokees, just as long as it's big and not too rounded out like its 3d model
How is that Select Mewto action figure?
>this is the week pokemon diesCan't wait
>>11594454Anon... hate to tell you this but... it died a while ago.
>>11594451it gives what it promises for $20.
>>11594457It's been since gen 4 tho??? There is a reason why people are waiting every year for a nidoking toy or yet another mewtwo but good this time
>>11594465In my opinion, Pokemon hasn't really been great since gen 2.
>>115944677 is the worst, imo. I only realize 2 is just bad because after HGSS
>>115944748 for me but it's close
I don't know
what to think
>>11594486skibidi feraligatr
>>11594451>>11594458Not too good but not horrible like some of them. Some joints and the bendy tail just don't work. Foot movement is limited and the bendy tail is too heavy and only can bend past the half way point so balance and foot posing is an issue. Then the base port in the back was done incorrectly so it doesn't go on the base well either.
>>11594485>>11594486This is one of the most retarded Megas I've ever seen. Most of the dumb looking Megas (Victreebell, Skarmory, Scolipede) don't bother me much because I was never a big fan of the base mon. But come on, Feraligatr has been a fan favorite for nearly 2 decades. Why do him dirty like this? It legitimately angers me, and i think that's a first in this franchise when it comes to Pokémon design.
>>11594485I hate gamefreak so much it's unreal
>>11594485This shit here it's basically yet another confirmation of how pokemon designs has been completely took over by Le wholesome westerinos UWU single cat ladies and bearded cucks. So now your typical twitter faggot can say: "Ooooh look at my chunky boy hehehe do you wanted another edgy dinosaur with goku eyes??? Nope no sir XD"
>>11594625>do you wanted
>>11594625100
>>11594625ok athena chungus etc
>>11594485>>11594486WTF please be a bad dream I wanna wake up
>>11594498HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
IT'S OVER
>>11594996It'll grow on us. Maybe we'll buy a toy of that one day.
>>11594996Not obese enough
>>11594996They're giving our lil fat boy ozempic. Too bad he won't look like mochi anymore, which is what the original designer intended.
>>11594996The end is nigh
>>11593807Most of the scale world figures are literally just the models in their idle pose.Some of the jazwares selects look so visually similar to their 3d models that they were definitely used as a base (Raikou, Mewtwo).
>>11594996They're abandoning anime pika for the Pokemon Center/Worlds/promo stock art pika. Wouldn't be surprised if they went after anime pika too when they do the next show.
>>11595199>Some of the jazwares selects look so visually similar to their 3d models that they were definitely used as a base (Raikou, Mewtwo)That's not how it works when making figures. They have to remodel them and then add in all the joints and internal components. Some sculptors have posted the sculpts they've done for the Jazzwares Selects on their portfolios. The goal is to make a figure look as close to the source material so ofcourse some figures will look like the models.
>>11595213So they will use this design for the next anime? Why do this? Anime is ICONIC
>>11595225Well we don't know but it seems possible. He already looked like that before in Generations.
>>11594996Incredible how far this franchise has fallen. I want my fatchu back.
>>11595344Let's alter a globally recognized iconic mascot
>>11592927What the hell are those outfits?
I’ll never forgive them…
>>11592467Aww the mouth cant articulate.>>11592463Getting this mofo for sure
What's my best option nowadays for the HUMAN Pokemon characters?
>>11595682NOWadays? Pokemoncenter still has RaihanAny good deal you can get for Tomy USA AshA flea market selling the Fortnite figuresAny anon's suggestions for othe figmas like the Yuru Camp one
>>11594996Hate it but this was inevitable since they've been using the promo art design for years now.
>>11594485>>11594486I honestly think they're just giving all the fans that begged for Megas back a big fuck you with these new designs.
>>11595755Right? Most are just stupid. A few look clearly like scrapped Gigantamax forms that didn't get the cut (Froslass, Falkinks, Zygarde, Starmie)
>>11595755>>11595769Excadrill, Starmie and Barbaracle are the worst. From what I saw on Pokeos, there aren't even a lot of good ones compared to how much Gen 6 gave. This really does feel like a middle finger
>>11595755Not sure why anyone is surprised. Just compare the designs of stuff they make now compare to 25+ years ago. Gen 1-3 is absolute peak, top tier. that ratio of designs with soul to no soul is absurdly high. Gen 4 you start to see cracks in the armor, but still very good. Gen 5 it's starting to actually get bad. Gen 6 slight uptick back to Gen 4 levels. Then Gen 7-present you are basically lucky to have 2 or 3 designs per gen that you actually like. Stuff like the Tapus, Ultra Beast, Paradox forms, things that don't even look like pokemon. boring ass generic designs or just comically goofy ones that are retarded like the Dragonite/Feraligatr megas.
>>11595682As action figures? 2ndhand TOMY Ash is pretty cheap. I got two. Mainly because the accessories were split between them, but at least the faces differ.Statics you got the tiny moncolle, the tiny scale world and the big pvc scales. Though Ali has some 3rd party I think statics of Misty/Brock/Ash now in two sizes.
>>11595397They're doing several outfits looking at photos, but their default's still there.https://x.com/BlokeesOfficial/status/1978297084949275053
Anyways, pokemon.
No new L-wave reveal yet.
>>11595682Figma styles if you want humans for npc trainers.
>>11595967really no rhyme or reason to these picks is there
>>115963053 are starters, Corphish and Farfetch'd were owned by Ash and then they plucked something from Kanto for the last slot cause you always have to have that.
>>11596305Could you blame them? The first pokemon game they played was SM, and then let's go pevee in 2024. There are no news on any of the other switch games so chinese taste in pokemon it's build upon anime and mobile games
>>11595969I don’t love the random “angry expression” they give to two of them, but I think the lineup is pretty good.I forget, can Slowpoke be changed from a sitting position?
>>11596378No :(
>>11596333Huh? They have to have played SwSh & SV because they've got a fuck ton of new merch coming out constantly. Today they just revealed a whole big Sprigatito line.
>>11596333Yea they're very likely pulling from what's in Unite. Mimikyu and Mew are a given at some point. Then anything standing on two legs has a good chance of being in L.
>>11595967>>11595969Please Blokees, make highly articulated Gardevoirs and Kirlias. I'll buy 3-5 of each.
>>11585536Crabchu
>>11597046Just my most recent haul. Got Jazwares Pidgeotto/Kabutops/Annihilape recently too.Also Z-A and the starters bonus fig arrived today, so playing that.
>>11597193Nice haul. How's that Mega Mawile? Thought about getting either that or the 2025 release moncolle of it. Seems like based on a few vids the arms fell off easily.
>>11597359Yeah, one of the arms of mine was also detached during shipping when I got it. Goes back in easy enough though.All of the weight is really in the two giant mouths, so posing can be a bit limited I guess. Bit of a tripod.
>>11597359>Thought about getting either that or the 2025 release moncolle Does scale not matter to you at all? The Moncolle is like 1/2 the size of the Tomy one
>>11596259all I want is an affordable misty figure or a redhair figma
>2025>still no Dawn figma, Serena figma, or Cynthia figmaAre they retarded?
>>11597592They've only ever done figures from the current generation's games as far as the Figma line was alive. And it's dead now so good bye Figma hopes.
>>11597592The Cynthia figma would sell so well but they're retarded and scarred from making a fucking raihon figma that only lowly gimps bought.
>>11597592>Are they retarded?They made Raihan for no good reason and he's still available. Also try to find a good price for Tomy Serena and customize it with Sozai arms and hobbybase joints
How is Jazwares beyond pokemon? They all have issues or just the Pokemon team that's incompetent?Considered their Master Chief once, but then I got a knockoff of the 1000 Toys one which turned up quite good for a 15 bucks bootleg.
>>11597775We talk shit about their Pokemon, but Jazwares used to be an actual bad company until they learned their lessons with Fortnite. The only problems with those is their ankle joints need work, and they all have knuckle joints which suck at holding guns, but they're still a better job than when they made Space Ghost
>>11597694>Also try to find a good price for Tomy Serena>100+ everywhereSucks when you can get Ash for like 5 bucks.
>>11585424Why not just make actual minifigures?
>>11597775I was actually pretty impressed with their Total Anime line - the figures are pretty decent and in somewhat good scale so you don't have like a giant Anya and a tiny Deku.The new Avatar figures look like dogshit though, especially with the cloth outfits.I feel like having them do Pokemon trainers would really be a monkey paw scenario where they'll end up being terrible and not really in scale with anything else.
>>11597592its honestly really weird how little trainer figures we get when its an open secret gamefrak has been focusing more on human characters rather than pokemon for a while nowCynthia would sold outRed reissue would sold outGold/Ethan would sold outAsh would sold outJesse and James would sold outN, Hilbert, Hilda and Rosa would sold outmay and dawn would sold outGiovanny would sell wellyou could go on
>>11597575The moncolle is small but the Tomy Usa is big. So between the two it's go a little smaller or a fair bit bigger. The Tomy has articulation but imo also looks not as nice so kinda mixed.
>>11597971They already sold lots of trainers, for the only brand that matters and it's gamefreak approved: Scale world
>>11598212>Fail World
Do collectors care about those zukan gacha figurines any more? I've got a shit ton just sitting around in storage and just kind of want rid of them.
>>11585424Lol imagine getting mogged by chinese custom shops
>>11585424
>>11599078If you go and list them someone will probably buy them. A while back I rounded up a bunch of obvious bootleg minifigs I had lying around, listed them together and they eventually moved. Just price it reasonably.
>>11599641>>11599644It's over
Are thery any hyper articulated Nockchan and Kicklee toys out there?
>>11600122Nein.
Got Blokees Scyther and it's great. I hope we get lots of Gen 1 mons.
>>11597592>>11597599Blokees would make at least the classic gym leaders
Anyone here got this guy? How do you feel about him?
>>11597600Raihon having a figma is so insane with current context since his fanbase was almost entirely fickle fujoshi who don't even think about the a character anymore.His existence as a toy much be so puzzling to people who skipped Sword and Shield.
>>11600460I have him. I'm glad I got him, he's pretty cool. Goes well with Deoxys. Would like Kyogre and Groudon to go with him.
>>11597193Sucks Tomy didn't get to Mega Gardevoir.Praying for Blokees.
>>11600460He's the best toy to date. Better than Hasbro, and that large old tomy that shoots a thing
>>11600460The horns always bend and they end up looking bad, other than that it's decent
I cannot believe only scale world made a Nemona figure. It seems like people really forgot almost everything about Galar, the only things from there that endured the pass of time: Fuegococo, Meowscarada...that's it
>>11600990You mean Paldea. There just isn't enough merch for trainers, despite the fact that they pad out pre-release trailers with them. This is all figma Raihan's fault.
>>11600990>forgets even the region's nameNemona might not be big with toys, but sure is with memes.
>>11600990i think Nemona got a decent amount of merch (plush) but figures are just third class things with Pokemon for whatever reason (behind #1 tcg and #2 plush)I wish a company would come in and do waves of the gym leaders or something. I think we'll probably see a lot of Canari stuff from ZA eventually.
>>11601204Iono wasn't really marketed that heavy, but she did end up getting a scale release.We'll see if they actually do anything with Z-A, because so far I only notice moncolle reissues.
How is the Battle Feature line in general? Can I move their joints normally or is it locked to some sort of "switch"?
>>11601349if they even have joints, they're all normal
>>11601350>if they even have jointsYes I noticed that, I thought that the selcet line was the premium version with great articulation from >>11600460, but at the store they had others from the select line and they were basically funko pops.
>>11601350This is not true at all. Almost all those 4" figures have parts that can't be posed normally because of the action feature. Like Rhydon. The legs can't be moved other than when using the action feature and the shoulders are limited by it too. >>11601356The select line is not just one line. The black packages are used for multiple different lines. They have 3" solid figures in metallic or translucent plastic and various sizes of vinyl figures too.
>>11601360Like I said, if they even have joints, they're all normal. its legs don't have joints
>>11601349Features usually have a gimmick locking them, like closing legs will flap wings and shit, or karate chop action.Unless you don't mind breaking that.
>>11601369>its legs don't have jointsBut it looks like he got joints in>his head>shoulders>maybe elbows>hips/legs>feet.
>>11601373yeah. if.
>>11601369>if they even have joints, they're all normal. its legs don't have jointsNo, You're wrong. The hips do move and allow it to bend forward, but it snaps back into the upright pose when you let go. Tons of others also have joints but the limbs are affected by the action feature so you're just not correct. Charizard (legs), Blastoise (jaw), Arcanine (legs), Pidgeot (Wings), Aerodactyl (wings), Grimmsarl (elbow), Cinderace (hip), etc. Almost all these figs have joints that can't move freely and keep their posed position.
Am I save buying the select line? When they have joints do they just work or do they also have those play "features"?
>>116014456" has no features but many have joints that dont work as well as they should because they didnt design the body parts with enough clearance for the joints to work. Like Cinderace cant bend his knees more than 90 degrees or move the hips up much. Some are fine without any big problems and some are really horrible figures. It varies.
>>11601462ok I guess I will, from no on, ask here about any figure I'm interested in buying before I buy them.
>>11601264All these electric streamers, man.
>>11601892Canari's giving me Brazilian Miku vibes and I want Blokees to jump on it.
>>11585424why couldn't they have made shit like this instead?
Anyone played ZA yet? How is it? Admittedly the trailers they put out kind of put me off it compared to the reveal teaser.
>>11603531It's more battle-focused but doesn't compare to the sovl Arceus had. Also for a sequel to XY, it doesn't have features from that neither
kepppley's still doing pokemonhttps://weibo.com/7136849358/QaqAgcsQkhttps://weibo.com/7136849358/QasqzDjjq
>>11603531While half the internet is pitchforking and expecting way too much from Gamefreak at this point, I'm surprisingly having a lot of fun with the real-time combat and parkour. Game should've been cheaper though, and the jewed DLC should've been base if they wanted to keep this price.Also Canari and Gwynn are cute.
>>11603632I only got their Lucario. Might get Gengar, the others look too small though.
>>11603632>>11603659They small yeah. Gardevoir mention for the Ctrl+F guy.
>>11603662That's pretty cool, you can use them with Scale World if it's 1/20 scale.
>>11603531It's fun. I'd say it feels in many ways closer to a traditional mainline than a Legends sequel. You don't craft your pokeballs or healing items anymore, you buy them from the Pokemon center like you normally would. There's a lot more trainer battling. The ZA promotions feel like going through a gym challenge with a few trainers then a boss. The urban setting makes it feel like another Pokemon game rather than the old setting Arceus went for. The battle mechanics I'm enjoying and it's fun seeing catchable Pokemon in a city setting like Trubbish by some trash cans.
>>11603632I hate how the world teases us with all these non-Select Garchomps
guys the last pokemon game I played was crystal, I want to play one now which should I play? Game boy advance and NDS only please.
>>11603632Whats the point of this line? They're not really articulated or in scale with one another and its the same pokemon that have been done tons and tons before in many lines.
>>11604138Hoping that you mistake them for blokees, they even changed to an orange logo
>>11603848You'll get it one day Garchomp anon.
>>11603848Damn you aren't kidding. The prices for Garchomp are so high and there's not really been many on ebay for months. It's weird because when the two pack with Charizard was out, they were all over and even got discounted to like $20 online for a while.
>>11604090Emerald
>>11604514>discounted cheap>insane aftermarket pricesevery time
>select Deoxys never made it to my country>never ever the only articulated toy of my favorite moni-it's not fair
>>11605198the united states will trade you all the Deoxys figs for all your Tyrantrum figs.
Couldn't care less for select garchomp, I'd rather have a blokees one
>>11606216I agree with you, I'd love a Garchomp Blokee. The one from Select is a bit ugly imo
>>11606216He'd prolly be same size as Charizard tho
>>11606478Fine enough, Arceus and ZA already detoxed me from autistic scalefagging
>>11607397>tfw I've become addicted to catching the largest and smallest possible mons
>>11607672Truly marvels of toy engineering.
>>11607672I'm actually glad when something jazwares is so awful, now I won't need to fight scalpers for it and would't feel the slightest amount of fomo
>>11607672This has to be their worst so far.
>>11607955then these 2 >>11607938 look like some of the best they'd ever made. How are they so inconsistent?
>>11607991>best>horrid hinges instead of balljoints>most noticeable pins ever
>>11608008>hinges instead of balljointsWhich joints you talking about? Dont balljoints usually look no better since it adds a break in the sculpt before and after the ball?
>>11593405I'm already enjoying all the new fanart but if the new games don't lead to at least one new scolipede with simple articulation I will be sad. I'm also waiting for indeedee male but I will be waiting a while for that I think.>>11604090black/white +2, emerald
>>11604090Emerald or Platinum. BW would be too new to start because it's all brand new monsters til post game, especially without the online features
1. Is this the best Gengar you can buy?2. is this the same toxtricity figure as in the battle line?
>>116101221. I prefer the plamo for the extra face options. There's also >>11603632 coming out but he might be on the small side.2. No.https://jazwarespokemon.fandom.com/wiki/4.5%22_Toxtricityhttps://jazwarespokemon.fandom.com/wiki/6%22_Toxtricity
>>11604090Emerald or HGSS. Gen 5 fucking sucks.
>>11610122The Vinyl one it's much better even if t's forever on a sit position
>>11610156>>11608522>>11604544>>11608121Thank you all very much, I decided to play FireRed. Currently getting rekt by Misty. If I ever finish it I plan to do SS, OR, emerald Platin, Black1/2 and ultra sun.
>>11603848>>11604306The select Garchomp is chilling with the epic sized Metagross. been waiting on them forever to be available for US at retail.
>>11610265Do play them in order too. Also don't be afraid to research teams. Like if you play Platinum, get the fire starter or you can use Ponyta instead. Either way, have all the fun you can>>11610335single Metagross is actually back in Gamestop
>>11610335Metagross has been in Gamestops for a few weeks now. You better get it quick before you miss is. You guys really can't rely only on 4chan for toy news or you'll miss everything.
Did any of you have these old soft vinyls? Just hoping one of you can give me tips on how to clean them. Not sure what liquids or chemicals are safe. I just want to get all the paint smears from the other figures off without taking the original paint off.
>>11611015Magic eraser works well. Cleaned some old bandai kids figures.
>>11611040I got one of those somewhere, thanks. If it doesn't reach all the small crevices, do you recommend letting them soak in warm soapy water?
incominglikely for feb 2026
>>11611103It should be able to get everywhere. You can try ripping a smaller piece of the eraser off and scrubbing. smaller areas.
>>11611040Love the thing, just don't over-scrub the paint off.
Is there anywhere to get a bunch of Moncolle for nothing tooo expensive? I really want to get as many Mega Evos as I can, but idk if I wanna pay for crazy shipping costs
>>11611539the usual places. Ebay, Mercari, YAJ. YAJ and Mercari JP through the main Mercai site will bee your best bets I think.
