>>11676835Wow wow wow, we get adidas?
>>11676847Just posted this, damn.
>>11676848Nice write up. They did the most with the joints that they could without breaking the sculpt of Nidoking. A lot of Pokemon have that same issue. They way they are designed just doesn't lend itself to putting joints in all areas. So many have super thick and short limbs, armor plates that cross over were joints would naturally go on a figure, etc.
obligatory post$650 starters$200 pikachu$60 eeveeother two are limited stock "free" gift with purchase to get you to preorder the sets
>>11676863>mfw only want the "gifts"Fucking lego
upcoming
KANTOOOOOO
>>11676868Ah, they're the midlife crisis sets.
If they arent willing to make minifigure-scale playsets with molded pokemon I would much rather have stuff like pic related than those atrocious giant pokemon sculptures
>>11676838>i've seen some shit...
>>11676838Robot chicken sketch looking ass.
>>11676872That's at least charming
>>11676865That's a pretty good lineup of non G1 mons
>>11676838This looks like shit. We don't need to keep posting it
>>11676838>Joy Man>No JoyDoes he even lift?
>>11676848Nice, gona repost your pic so it's easier for others to see. Looks like a good dex size height next to Red. >it seems like they’re very unwilling to add articulation that would compromise the sculpt, or the continuum of the lines. While a waist or pec crunch/swivel would have definitely added a lot to this mold, it would break the lines of the belly “armor.” I feel like this is one of those designs that could get away with a cut because of the natural look of armor. Jazwares gave Dragapult and Garchomp a body cut and those didn't have a natural segment like Nidoking does. Of course on something like Charizard it would be too glaring and no company has put a cut there.
I bought that ldcx infernape, quite surprising that you can find them in aliexpress at $10-15 same with keepley while blokees it's rising their prices. I guess that's the price of popularity
>>11676864if it makes you feel better they both use stickers instead of prints. fuck stickers
>>11676868>>11676871Well, they know their demographic, at least.
>>11676944I have Red, I’ll post another pic tonight.
>>11676944>Looks like a good dex size height next to RedNo, it's pretty small. Nidoking is short but this looks way too short and non imposing next to Red or other Figmas
>>11676835When will Jazwares reveal their anniversary line?
>>11676863TAKE MY WALLET
>>11677056Anniversary line? What did they do for the 25th?
>>11676868>all those OLD peoplewhat the fuck...i'm 39 but i dont look like an "old-OLD o l d" person...the guy on that video looks like grandpawhat the fuck anonsAnd i still feel like i'm 17...i know it's because im a 4channer needbut stillpokemon generation is not that OLD
>>11677062Jazwares didn't have the license for the 25th, did it? Wasn't it Tomy?
>>11677064Stress will age you faster than anything
>>11677064this is you
>>11676944Nidoking would make a better Select or Epic, for size alone
>>11676863How do I get the badges?
>>11677051>>11677074It's near perfect for a standard dex size one. The Blokees Lucario is the perfect height next to Red or Gloriia.
>>11677085I know, I just want a big king
>>11677083you had to buy the $650 starters set but they already ran out of stock. will cost hundreds in the aftermarket
>>11677090>you had to buy the $650 starters setThat's a lot but I can do it> but they already ran out of stock. will cost hundreds in the aftermarketFuck
>>11677072nah i'm one of those "generic bearded white guy that is a gamer youtuber from 2010s" zoomers in general age like milk (to the point it's a meme already) because their generation is full of stress and junk foodI grew up during the "kid generation" and never tasted Energy Drinks till i hit 20+>>11677069I think it's because that video was made during current trend of "ugly actors" that have weird or specific unique look (for example the new Superman actor is what i mean).I mean...come on.what the fuck is that guy's age.
>>11676865I'm more curious to see these sets
>>11677066I don't recall Jazwares doing anything for the 25th but 2021 might've been that Wicked Cool Toys to Jazwares transition phase and they had nothing ready going into the year. Tomy did the mythical thing for the 20th.
I really do not understand aliexpress, it always says 1.8 or 3 dollars but when i try to pay it says 8 dollars (without shipping)
>>11677108>>11677066Thank god. Anniversary releases just prove that they suck. Jazwares released the Select line instead
>>11677116First purchase bonus etc
>>11677120It says summer sale
>>11677066Jazzwares had just bought WCT I think. They did all those chrome figures and plush and started the 6" line that year
>>11677089I feel you anon. I’d just say it was an Alpha and be done with it.
I'll definitely get a blokees machamp if they make oneI can't believe I spent so much money on those f'n d-arts
>>11677414>blokees machamp if they make oneThe person who reported it is one of the two who has a proven track record finding and leaking things on discord so Im sure its real.
>>11677121fell for the bait and scam, or something
>>11677414I want Machoke instead, we already got Tomy Machamp
>>11677108Ugh, I read somewhere Japs don't celenrate 15th, 25th, etc like we do. They celebrate 10th, 20th, 30th, etc. So maybe that had to do with it, 30th will be big.
>>11677600All they did with the 25th logo was the plush and the 3" figure line that they've kept going on until now with different things like translucent, metallic, etc
>>11677600these ones
>>11677557This. I know the eventual Jazwares Machoke will be abysmal.
>>11677619>>11677621oh right. I forgot about these, but mainly because they didn't get in the way of regular releases for once
>>11677108>>11677119I think 20th line was nice, wouldn't mind if Jazwares did Legendaries for 30th.
>>11677090I hate scalpers
>>11677064Either makeup or special effects. The MC of the trailer is a broken, tired MA man who's tired of the 9 to 5 grind and has no joy in his life. So they needed him to look the part. What I find funny is the guy seemingly has friends and even a female neighbor who really likes him.
Tomy in Japan is re-releasing all of the starter MonColle Figures in special 30th anniversary sets.The packaging looks pretty nice. Shame Tomy doesn't have the license over here or else we'd probably get them too.I don't know what Jazwares will do but i hope its something nice. I thought the silver figures for the 25th were kind of a dud and the pearly painted ones have lost all appeal since they do them all the time now for the holiday calendars and evolution multipacks. We definitely need some legendaries but the question is can they get them in market quick enough.
>>11678023I actually won't be surprised if Jazwares just do something like this but they add Gen 10 starters and paint them in a more shiny paint.
>>11677790Jazwares really haven't done mythicals have they. There's basically the Mew and it barely gets repacked. It came with the Mewtwo battle feature figure and that was basically it. It would be cool if they finally got around to doing Celebi , Jirachi, Shaymin etc. I like how Jazwares figures float with the clear stand and you can plug like a figma stand into something like a Jirachi
>>11678023If only they were all gloss-coated again, they'd be worth buying
>>11677093If you are 39 you are at prime denial age, bonus denial points if you still dress like you did 20 years agoI guarantee you if someone put you in a kind of unfashionable boxy suit, bowl cut, and tight close up of your face you'd look old too
>>11676939This is canon, btw.
