There's smug pricks who think they're the elites in every collector's community. They're usually driven by economic advantage of owning the shit most collectors can't afford, giving them a sense of superiority. On this board they're easy to spot because they'll attack the poor for not being able to afford what they can afford, as well as attack other people's opinions for not lining up with their own which they always presume to be factual. Domination comes from mentally beating down everyone else. They never apologize for being assholes because as far as they're always concerned they're always right, therefore lesser people deserved poor treatment. I've gotten to the point to where I just hide the posts of such people, and don't reply at all.
>>11609952>t.poorfag
honestly if you don't have at least 20 lafufus you shouldn't be allowed to post here.
>>11608282Why are Americans like this.
>>11609952Just like people you see everywhere. Owning cars, houses and chicks.Being a prick boost their ego.
>>11610097Well here you have people telling you to kill yourself (which is actually a felony to bully people like that) whenever your opinion doesn't align with theirs. And being a prick comes from being someone who gets off on being mentally abusive to others. Some people aren't happy unless they're abusing others because treating tohers like shit is something they get off on, and some people use it as a means of bullying others into submissiveness. I rarely see that in the real world because most people know if you treat others like that in person, you're gonna get a beatdown IRL. So it's always "behind closed doors," or in this case anonymously on the internet.
>>11610101Back when I was in school, I saw rich student bully other lesser students and teachers never bet an eye and some other students just being bootlickers.
>>11608563I genuinely don't understand why some people do this. Fonthey reset and forge their thread only got 8 replies last time? Are the attention whoring? It's really baffling to me and I just kind of want to understand it.
>>11609952You'd probably feel better if you took that massive chip off your shoulder bud. Just saying.
>>11610736It's someone trying to force a meme topic. It rarely works elsewhere, so I don't see why they bother here.
>>11608282>is everything wrong with the fig community in you're pathThe people who are bad for any collector's community:1. that one really-rich-and stupid guy who pays such a retard high price for something that all sellers of the same thing immediately react by raising their prices on everyone else. I read a story of a group that deliberately bid up the value of their own Pokemon cards for this reason of motivating others into paying and selling them for more, and it worked.2. army-builders. They can and do often make fodder figures harder to find and more expensive than key characters. 3. sellers who would rather sit on something for ten years at a given price than lower the price to a moving price that gets it sold. That's why so many comic book shops are floor-to-ceiling with shit they'll never get rid of. They just keep telling themselves that someone will eventually come along and pay their price.4. "hobby experts." They're rarely friendly. 5. people with shit lives who feel better about themselves by being assholes to other people. 6. Scalpers. Can't forget about them.
>>11610796This list is spot on, but the dig at comic book shops is especially valid in my experience lately. I know one local toy shop where the owner WILL haggle but that's just an exception that proves the rule
>>11610796>3. sellers who would rather sit on something for ten years at a given price than lower the price to a moving price that gets it sold. Hey I found a guy like that a few days agohave something sit for 4 years and didnt want to negociate.Found someone else selling the same thing for 20buck less
>>ywn go to Japan and hang out with Rocco cruising figure storesfeels bad man
>>11610796>Scalpers. Can't forget about them.Dont forget people who encourage them. https://youtube.com/watch?v=4VfFbJzuH1wAnd people who buy more than one. Extra annoying if they do it just to sell it later. I would have forgiven them if they would use it for custom but most are just greedy fucks.
>>11612233This fucking guy and his friends will never get the credit they deserve for being the grandfathers of the average internet microcelebs people worship out there. Rocco and his pals literally set the table for every single faggot he made a living on the internet being an annoying douche in front of a camera.
>>11612233Why does he always have a "smug prick" look on his face?
>>11613509So they paved the way for Logan Paul?The monsters.
>>11613509i remember watching their early videos when i was in middle school and it blows my mind that they're still around and haven't really gone on to anything bigger in over twenty years. who is still giving them money?
>>11613803they were running low on support and were going to close up show last year iirc. but their pity stream at the time gave them a buffer.
>>11610101You're a whiny bitch, you know that?
>>11613576Rocco is a self-admitted prick, a relic from the old internet considering how people who used to be like him have gone to either end of the exteme depending on who their audience is.>>11613803They have a pretty dedicated fanbase that shows up for them at events and buy the fuck out of their limited merch. Also I think most of them have other jobs outside their videos, Derrick for sure does actual work in the TV industry and Shawn has way too many kids to only rely on youtube money.
>>11608282I really don't get people who do this. Like what is the point of spending so much money on toys and figures and stuff just to shoddily pile it up in your crummy room and let it all rot in dust and mold? If you're gonna buy so many toys at least display them correctly. But I guess priviledged fat fucks like him who never had to work a day in their lives don't really know the value of things, huh?
>>11614209I don't display most of my shit at all. I keep it in storage bins so I don't have to deal with keeping everything dusted. I collect for my own enjoyment, not because I feel any need to show it off to people who come by. Having a room that looks like that makes him look like a hoarder.
>>11614068I'm from the "old internet," and I don't remember people being smug pricks. I remember a "high trust society" internet where people would give trust and faith with doing toy trades with strangers on message boards, and assholes got banned for being assholes due to people wanting everything as chill and civil as possible. Plus it was mentally different since governments weren't monitoring your every word.
>>11614068>Rocco is a self-admitted prick, a relic from the old internetI never really got into their origins, they were early somethingawful irony guys right? They should've pivoted more to twitter like a decade ago when all of the dudes from SA got big followings.
>>11614249they cant do their do old shtick because that kind of thing isn't safe anymore (they used to throw faggot around all the time for example). Now they try to be centrist "safe-edgy" but then things like Shawn getting visibly triggered at any mention of trumpor spending 90% of their podcast doing facebook quizzes make it hard for them to play irony because of how transparent they are.They probably should've pivoted/ sold out sooner, but either way theyre a relic surviving off of whats left of their paying fanbase.
>>11608282All these toys and yet not buying 1-2 cheap book cases to display them properly. Jesus!
imagine knowing anything about these literal whos
>>11614218>I'm from the "old internet," and I don't remember people being smug pricks.Internet celebrities like Maddox and Spoony One says "hi". Also all these walking stereotypes of fanboys manchildren that took treated shit like console wars into serious business. I know, they weren't the norm like today but still. Which is why I don't have nostalgia for most old forums since they were social media's ancestors in terms of stupid drama and shit. And the forums that used to be ok later ended up into SJW circle jerks.
>>11614211>Collecting toys as an adult>Keeping them in storage binsWhy?
>>11608282Why does it looks like his room and clothes are exactly the same since childhood?
>>11609975Better a poorfags than a swallow, addicted collectorfag with shitty attitude and no real, healthy hobbies
>>11608717With a room like this? Lol!
>>11609794>Tranny >Better lookingPick one
>>11608282so this guy has rich parents right?
>>11614854See this:>>11614852
To people who don't know his videos, he was an influencer on early youtube. He blew his career in his interview with Jontron.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TP1eaju_WawNot a shred of grace in defeat. Absolutely buck broken by his loss to ScrewattackGODS
>>11614881I enjoyed their nerd-crew podcast during Covid. It gave a little comfort listening to their antics and shilling for Disney products at the time (Rocco going to Disneyland almost daily, checking out the Star Wars land that had opened).I'm glad they're still going after all these decades. Their skits and pranks from 20+ years ago were cool.
>>11614896They're recent stuff is okay. Go watch their plumbers don't wear ties and fatal fury video.
>>11614990I dont give a shit about their vlogs, I just watch their comedy skit videos.
>>11614718>manchildren that took treated shit like console wars into serious business"The console wars were my personal Vietnam"- Robert Movie
>>11614990You really are the second most pathetic creature on this board.
>>11614881>ScrewattackAnd where are those guys now? Craig is off trying to be a culture war grifter and the entire crew split off and disappeared into the ether. At least Mega64 still get hired to do promo reels for video games.
>>11610796>3A place where I live has had an overpriced Liverobo sitting in the same spot for the last 20 years. Fuckin delusional.
>>11614881He was at least gracious enough to upload the video knowing it didn't make him look good, so gotta give the guy points for that. At the least the key thing about any interview is know the subject and the subject's area of influence and expertise.
It brings me great joy to know that Rocco has probably seen this thread.
>>11616367I don't have anything for or against him. I just want him to smile and act like he enjoys his hobby.
>>11608282Did Rocco fuck that Marky chick like Sam Hyde?
>>11616367Really? He doesnt strike me as a 4chan guy. Garrett on the other hand...
>>11610101Why are you such a pussy?
>>11616834You don't tell people to kill themselves. You think you're being an internet tough-guy but you're actually doing something criminal that people out there have acted on and took their lvies after being bullied like that, which is why it's a felony. It's OK and normal to not agree with people, but to resort to bullying nevertheless trying to bully someone into killing himself because someone disagrees with you is fucking evil.
>>11616841Sam Hyde said bullying is okay
>>11616841>which is why it's a felony.I thought it was only a felony if they actually follow through, like in the case of Michelle Carter. And even then, that was sustained and constant bullying directed at a person that she knew to have suicidal ideation. I'm not sure if there have been too many cases where a casual offhand remark prior to someone offing themself has resulted in them being convicted.
>>11610101>which is actually a felony to bully people like thatyou're actually a massive fag for bringing this up, guess you had the privilege of not getting beat up at school for saying dumb shit like this
>>11616764Johnny and Garrett have both said memes on stream from /pw/, the pro-wrestling board.
New video.Figure update bros... it's over.
>>11616237>>11614881>Look at me everyone! Look at me, im too fucking stupid to understand this is a joke
>>11608282I don't even know who this guy is, I just see this same pic posted every couple of weeks.
>>11610796>3. sellers who would rather sit on something for ten years at a given price than lower the price to a moving price that gets it sold. That's why so many comic book shops are floor-to-ceiling with shit they'll never get rid of. They just keep telling themselves that someone will eventually come along and pay their price.This one is pretty amazing. Some comic shops kept the same high prices up throughout all the 80s and 90s, and they still maintained the faith that eventually some rich guy was going to walk into the door of their far forgotten corner of town, into their ghetto store placed next to the shitty hair salon and spend $2K on that first issue on the shelf.
>>11620499stop posting this ugly fuck
>>11608282I never understood why he has this weird, just smelled something really bad and grimacing from it, kind of look on his face in every pic. But also...it seems weird to me that he is in the exact same room with the same stuff from 2010 to 2025. He even dresses the same. His face got more haggered with time but everything else around him stayed the same.
People made fun of Chris-Chan because his room looked like this but way worse, and now it seems common for people to just have 200+ action figures and shit all around their room. And these are grown men, not children. Chris was already in his 20's at that point anyway, but the men you see with rooms like this are usually in their 20's and 30's easily. I hate to use the word "manchild" but having a room with 200+ funko pops on display and 200+ action figures with shit covering every square inch of the wall just screams "manchild". There is a fine line between a hobby/interest and just being a full-on slave to consumerism.
>>11622183ah but its ok to have a room full of football and baseball shit though. kys retard
>>11622183If you can't tell the difference between chris and rocco, then I don't know what to tell you.
