>>11725308I'm dissapointed they didn't reveal any new toys or Lego sets yesterday, I wonder if Lego will touch Gen 10? Did anyone get the new Lego sets? Eevee should arrive on Monday, that's the only one I could afford lol
>>>/a/286402869>>>/a/286402908maybe this is the right place to ask this? i've never bought any pokemon stuff before
Has anyone found a place to get the 30th welcome Pikachu aka fat pikachu plush without paying $200 shipped?
Still waiting on G-Max toys.Sigh.Someday.
>>11725308Why does the lizard have eyelashes and bedroom eyes? Is she going to be Salazzle 2.0: Your Starter Edition?
>>11725350Who knows. They aren't made by Takara Tomy, so there's an actual they can hit the US Pokemon Center website, but it can take between a couple of weeks to half a year from now.
>>11725316I'm not a lego person so they needed to win me over for me to get the sets and they didn't. The lego regulars who reviewed them all were saying the large bases of the $650 set was making up like half the piece count cost.
>>11725400Make them yourself. No company is going to make that
>>11725491>$650when I was a kid you would get 3 castles, 2 pirate ships and a whole western town for that money.
>>11725528LEGO has gotten more and more greedy over the years and Pokemon is one of the most expensive companies to license with. We're doomed to have all overpriced sets for these especially.
>>11725528Yeah 30 years ago you could get a good car for $6000 too
>>11725491
>>11725562Damn Pikachu, all that could fit?
>>11725562This is a humiliation ritual
>>11725562kek ruined
>>11725402*he (90% male)But yes the gecko will probably be the zoophile pandering for this set.
>>11726269Dog will become bara
>>11726316
>>11725562Why is there a stick going up pikachu’s ass
>>11726582kekachu
>>11725528>>11725530inflation. Every big set has always been out of reach. Difference was that there was more sales on most sets because Toys R Us existed. I would even be outpriced by small sets that didnt come in polybags. And even if i did buy huge sets like the Agents Command truck or the Exo Force Combat Crawler X2, they still felt less worth the money
>>11725491>The lego regulars who reviewed them all were saying the large bases of the $650 set was making up like half the piece count cost.That's the case of most modern Lego sets.Added shit to inflate the cost.
>>11725316Probably wont see any gen 10 merch for quite a few years. I believe we got the first SV figures about 6 months after the game came out. So we'd probably get figures at 2028 at the latest.No way Lego is touching any non Gen 1 stuff. They know where the nostalgia bait is.>>11725448I believe these are Pokemon Center exclusive products and the tush tags have the generic international stuff on them so its highly likely they'll come to the US at some point.So far the only thing we will not get is the fat pika by TOMY.>>11725469I think WCT took over in 2018 and then got bought by Jazwares shortly after that. So they're coming up on a decade.
>>11726868>I think WCT took over in 2018 and then got bought by Jazwares shortly after that. So they're coming up on a decade.Thats separate from Takara Tomy's stuff. Takara Tomy is who does all the Moncolles and other things Japan gets. They've been making Pokemon figures for ages. Tomy USA was doing the toys before WCT but that got taken over by WCT around 2018.
Here's Feb's Checklist updateNew stuff last month included:-Squish A Long Poke Center playset and 4-pack wave at Target-3pack Wave 27 in stock from some third party Amazon sellers and Gamestop is beginning to get some-2025's Spring wave is showing up at Target again in the Easter section-The less exciting packs from Battle Pack Wave 23 (Espeon, Lucario, Char/Lotad) are starting to show up at Gamestops-3pack Wave 28's Alolan Muk pack is showing up at Gamestops -Battle Spinners Wave 2 is in stock at Smyths stores-Five Below stores are getting 2" Select Case Wave 9 (Nincada, Grafaiai, etc)
>>11726938thx anon
Blastoise review pics from insta.
>>11726269>heThey officially referred to Gecqua as a she. That's her canon gender, and she will be the first majority% female.
>>11727084>>11727085cannons are a bit too thin but other than that I'm liking what I see so far.
>>11727084>>11727085that looks really good actually! It doesnt have all the pin holes or pegs showing in the limbs like other figures. Does that person have the Keeppley pictured to compare together?
in terms of pokemon blokees what should I have set as high priority? been eyeing mostly scyther, machamp, and Nidoking.still don't have meowscarada, lucario, and snorlax either.
>>11727090He (90% male). Expecting Game Freak to go against their pattern autism is a recipe for furfag disappointment... but then again, go ahead and get excited for what will certainly turn out to be tranny gecko, like tranny seal and tranny cat before it. Furfag tears are the best.
>>11726938I feel like the Epic line is redundant and the mons in it should have been incorporated into the Trainer Select line a while ago.
Where the ducks my select zoroark jazzwares?
>>11727219some yes, some no. Gyarados, Venusaur and Metagross are bigger than the 6" boxes and they don't really need any more articulation than what they have. I wouldn't have wanted a smaller Tyranitar tho. I'll sacrifice some joints for the larger size.
>>11727200All are solid picks
>Still no 30th anniversary Figma figuresWhy did Figma make like 5 of the best 1/12th scale Pokemon trainer figures ever then just stop?
>>11727306Hi there
>>11727307I mean i dont like the guy but its a great trainer figure regardless. He's also more popular in Japan ironically. Would habe been cool if they did the final gym leaders for each region.
>>11727084>>11727085Man i really have to buy that charizard now to have the whole trio later
>>11727085Venusaurbros get FUUUUUCKED
>>11727084This looks perfect. I already have the figurearts but I would definitely get this if I didnt. Hope they keep this quality up. Just need a company to start making decent trainers again.
https://youtu.be/X3n5ARfz9dk?si=J_WauggsMgIFXuGJBandai revived this game called Plakoro. Don't get the whole thing except perhaps magnifying Pokémon damage by rolling a combo of the core Pokémon dice and three Element Dice.
>>11727187>Does that person have the Keeppley pictured to compare together?Nope just the one posted with the other starters and this one with Ash and Red.
>>11727374oof, that seam through the head though
>>11727308>He's also more popular in Japan ironically.Correct, but without a Leon figma in the horizon fujos weren't interested in getting him. Shit, he underperformed so badly, you were able to buy him directly from the Pokemon center site many months after release.
>>11727384He's still there now.
>>11727384>>11727392The Japanese figma sold well. Hes just not very popular over here. It sucks him flopping over here killed the line.
>>11727306Because goodsmile is an awful toy company pokemon isn't even their worst figma line
>>11726868>No way Lego is touching any non Gen 1 stuff. They know where the nostalgia bait is.the Superbowl commercial was hilarious when they had almost all nostalgia-level Pokemon but added a couple new ones in the mix...Lady Gaga - Jigglypuff!Trevor Noah - Psyduck!KPop cutie-- Eevee!another young actress I don't recognize but she cute-- Gengar!lots of cute girls play Pokemon! kids probably know who this girl is - um.... Luxray??Soccer Guy? I bet he's popular or talented - some giant garbage mess? I couldn't even hear the name?another young guy I'm too old to recognize - oh! the fire-dog-thing! ah! what was that guy's name again??it's a shame there's like 1000 Pokemon, but "people" only recognize about 20 of them by name and maybe up to 70 with "that's a Pokemon! I think. I don't know what its name is though"
>>11727487The 151 are iconic for good reason. Can't say Game Freak doesn't try to put other generations out there, they're constantly shilling gen 4.
>>11727374He's almost perfect. I'm excited for its eventual roll out.
>>11727200I don't think there's gonna be a better Nidoking or Scyther in the future so maybe those. There will be more Lucario but the blokees one is a perfect size for figma and I'm really happy with it. There could be a better Select Machamp and some company might make a bigger Snorlax.
>>11727418The Pokemon Figma are all amazing.
>>11727504I hate this stupid faggot so much, he doesn't have a creative bone in his body. All he's capable of is taking licensed slop and converting it into more licensed slop, essentially doubling the amount of corporate cock guzzling.
>>11727564What is that figure? Reminds me of something out of ben 10.
>>11727657marvel legends eternity
>>11727725Close. It's called Singularity
LEAK
>>11728310thank God it's not a mouth sticker or painted
>>11728320when has jazzwares ever done stickers on anything?
>>11728310No way!!I fucking love Pinsir.
>>11725350Heads up, but it has been announced that it's coming to the NA store.
>>11728310Looks not terrible...
>>11725350it’s available on Plaza Japan, $126
>>11729198A company is making an articulated Pinsir with a fun action feature. Considering I didn't expect to ever see a Pinsir figure, I'll say it's fantastic.Then somehow with the first series of Placoro, Pinsir is also featured there, what are the odds.
>>11728310>real pinching actionKINO>>11728402Frightful creature
Japan is getting a TCG figure line.
>>11729348When they make the original Charizard I'm sure it'll grab a lot of attention. Nothing in this group that particularly calls to me, but a very fun idea for a figure series.
>>11729348Porygon is one of my favorite mons, and it sucks he got stuck in default pose #1.it looks no different than the Jazware toy other than it most likely being smaller than it.
>>11729409For a bit more context this is the Japanese release of something China did a few years ago. All the cards come from a single somewhat recent set so the original Charizard isn't gona be made and we don't know if there's more beyond these. They're blind box items for 1800 yen but you can probably find specific ones out there right now from the China release.
>>11729474Interesting, so you can remove them from their bases. I may actually get Electrode then, as that looks to be a big improvement from his last toy release decades ago.
>>11729348>>11729474>In addition, the set also includes two 5-card "Collectibles 151 Journey" booster packsTaken from the Chinese description of this item. Who knows if the Japanese release will also come with the bonus booster packs.
>>11729348If you put Ivysaur in front of Electrode it looks like some Doujin panel where the MC enters in the room and sees the of them
>>11729348Why isnt it base set cards? Wtf? They also somehow messed up the poses for Ivysaur and Eggs. That Porygon one is bullshit too. literally just Porygon doing nothing. Feel like we have that exact Porygon in this scale too. Just a waste.
In Canada was the current select wave with Noivern the first time we got the trainer team sticker on the box? Haven't bought one of these in a while, last was Garchomp and Raikou and they didn't have it.
>>11730257Did they have the stickers? I saw them once but didn't recall seeing it. But if they do then ya, that's the first time. They're probably functionally EB exclusives, so maybe that's why they kept the name?
>>11728402I'm thinking I might have better luck nabbing this fat bastard the JP Pokemon Center's preorders rather than the NA Pokemon Center's page. The latter is going to be scalped to hell and back, so the preorder page with proxy shipping might be more reliable.
>>11730282Yea my Noivern box has the sticker. I guess since TRU is dead now they're effectively EB exclusives . Which hopefully means no more waves get skipped cause I'm pretty sure before the idea was that TRU and EB would get alternating waves but then TRU just stopped ordering cause they were going under.
>>11730307Maybe Entei and Flygon will get a reissue at some point... That notoriously skipped wave is quite the pain.
>>11730314I think Suicune appeared on the back of the box once. Since we actually get the reissues shown on the box hopefully they'll throw us a bone at some point since we never got them.
>>11730302>Seller I first purchased the set from took the money and ran>JP Pokemon Center is blocking me from accessing it, even with a VPN>Got the URLs for the two plushes, sent to my proxy>Proxy says they're unavailableMan, that's some rotten luck. Guess I'll wait.
>>11729348beep boop
>>11729348>Porygon>>11732116>The Cooler Porygon
>>11732116gen 10 when?
>>11727085You OK there, Venusaur?
>>11729348Cute concept. If it's a success I hope they do some based on iconic art from the TCG's past. Base set Squirtle would go hard.
>>11732482I like the card dios
>That stand hole placement
>>11696281I ended up getting the KFC exeggutor so now I have a canon Gary Oak team (minus Pidgeot, I need Jazwares to rerelease please)
>>11733309we need bigger, better figures of alakazam, rhydon and arcanine so badly. None of those look good
>>11727374Which Ash is that?
>>11733453SHF, Team Rocket got them too
>>11733078The west nut is the best nut.
>>11733309Embrace the bowtie as long as you can. Exeggutor was one of the best mons back in Gen 1, at least that's what one guy said on that Time magazine
>>117333091/12 isn't good scale for pokemon
>>11733590Overpriced isn't a good quality for Fail World
>>11733592What does this have to do with Scale World?
>>11733607Then why did you say 1/12 isnt a good scale for Pokemon?
>>11733623Because no product line offers a collection at this scale, you have to search for risky items and hope for the best. Often, the quality is highly questionable and varies depending on the manufacturer. Even with Jazwares alone, there are many ugly toys because the quality isn't there, or unsightly gadgets, or even poorly managed joints that really detract from the product's aesthetics.This also means there aren't many choices in terms of species, as very few have figures that meet this size requirement.Pokémon at their final evolutionary stage will have very large figures, not just in height but also in width, length, etc. Six or seven figures the size of a Pokémon like Charizard in 1/12 scale would take up too much space.Very large Pokémon, at least 3 meters tall, will never have anything available, and it would be too big, even though many popular Pokémon are this size.I haven't even listed all the problems. It just becomes a desperate struggle to hope for something decent
ok, but anything is still better than Fail World. They're not only small, they're priced more than they should be
>>11733641I don't know why you're fixating on Scale World when it's not mentioned.
>>11733644maybe he is jealous and frustrated by scale world because he will never have a third of what they offer at 1/12 scale, it's a way for him to artificially reassure himself
>>11733644Name a worse major Pokemon toyline aside Jazwares then.
>>11733652I don't know, it's just boring.>>11733659Unfortunally, there's nothing worse than Jazwares. They're the official toys with the lowest quality, by far.
>>11733659the worst is plamo because of the stickers and fragile joints, followed by jazwares product
New 18+ Pokemon sets coming in august
>>11733078The seam line down the middle annoys me more than the hole. Sad they did this to Charizard Y.
>>11733740When you literally just have to retool normal Charizard, but INNOVATE again instead.
>>11733745huh? They don't share any parts at all. Nothing was retooled from Charizard
>>11733838That's the point.
>>11733867Are you saying you wish it did share parts? What is your point?
>>11733876He's responding to the other person about the seam line and how it wouldn't be there if they retooled the old zard.
>>11733971but retool means to keep the parts the same. Charizard Y cant use the same parts cuz the shapes are all different. So Im not sure what they were saying they wanted anyway.
>>11733662oh so you ARE defending Fail World by comparing it to a toyline that actually tries to be in-scale to anything. yikes>>11733667You compare Fail World to a taller, posable toyline that costs the same as its own quality? you and your straws
>brandwars shit againoh boy
>>11733629I personally dont mind having the pokemon not be its canon pokedex size. It doesn't matter if Groudon or Gyarados isn't actually 30 feet or whatever, as long as it's bigger than a human and I can recreate the look of an in-game battle that's good enough for me. I personally like 1:12 just because so many other toys are 1:12 so it's fun to like make pokemon teams for other characters from other franchises. I don't personally mind scale world, you can even use the scale world onix or steelix to pretend they're 1:12. I mainly am mad about the 1/8 trainer figures though since those are just too big and I have no idea why they couldnt make them 1/12 instead.
>>11734232>I personally like 1:12 just because so many other toys are 1:12, its just oh so kino and makes me feel like a badass. it did save the brand don't toy know? 1/12 is the only acceptable toy scaleboring ass action figure crap that's marvel legends or gi Joe. face it, you faggots are brain damaged and need big toys to not feel insecure about playing with dolls
>>11734232>I personally dont mind having the pokemon not be its canon pokedex size. It doesn't matter if Groudon or Gyarados isn't actually 30 feet or whatever, as long as it's bigger than a human and I can recreate the look of an in-game battle that's good enough for me.Same
>>11734232Exactly. And that's why Fail World can't provide that.
>>11734237you really are everywhere arent you
>>11734051Scale World is a good product line. You seem a bit obsessed with bashing a line you don't even collect, which is odd.However, it has nothing to do with whether or not they have joint. Jazwares is objectively mediocre; just look at the beautiful figures Blokee makes or even 1/12 non-Pokemon products.
Releasing tomorrow in Japan. Still no signs of ZA Megas or new molds which sucks, but it's cool that fug is now a standard release and no longer a lottery exclusive from 10 years ago.
>>11734334you 1/12 fags can't stop crying can you?
>>11734444im not sure why youre antagonizing when i asked a question but you do you
>>11734431I think they'll do Mega Lucario Z at very least cause it's Lucario. Probably some anime ones like Dragonite and Starmie too. It's sad but not even the new starter megas feel like a sure thing anymore.
>>11734611NTA but if even just Lucario Z happened I'd be happy since it would surely be the shiny. Which looks fantastic.
>>11734397>You seem a bit obsessed with bashing a line you don't even collect, which is odd.so you're otherwise saying my opinion is valid. good. And thank you for mentioning other lines that are better than Fail World and even Jazwares
>>11734996>>11734996I don't know if you're trolling or if you're genuinely retarded, but I never said or implied that your opinion was valid.My posts weren't referring to Scale World, and yet you constantly bring everything back to that product line.At this point, you should just see a psychologist; so much hate for something you don't even buy is as ridiculous as it is absurd.When I criticize Jazwares or the 1/12 scale Pokémon figures, it's from the perspective of a consumer who buys those products.Whether you collect Scale World or not, it's objectively one of the best lines TPCi offers. The selection is vast, both for trainers and Pokémon, everything is in a consistent scale, and the character sculpts are the most faithful to the original material.The line has flaws, like all product lines, but they remain relatively minor, and those who collect them aren't dissatisfied or frustrated. And it would be great if Jazwares, or even 1/12 scale, could fulfill its function properly, as Scale World does so well. Unfortunately, that's not the case.
>>11735091My guy, he's been trolling about scale world for as long as they have existed, and before that he whined about shodo, because he can't afford them. Stop replying to him and just ignore him like everyone else does. You're only hurting yourself.
>>11735114I see, thank you. This troll is really weird

>>11737935nobody cares
>>11733078Got mine today from Smyths.Can confirm the awful hole placement.
someone on discord reported that mega lucario 6" is coming with the blastoise and incineroar series
>>11738431>mega lucario 6"Sticking to my Tomy with that one
>>11738438I'll want to see how it is first. If its the size of the Lucairo they made a couple years ago that's like 6.5"+ then it'll be too tall for other figs. They are making some like the Scizor shorter than other figs now so maybe they also went shorter with this Mega Lucario
>>11738501I feel like it might be a little smaller than their last one. With the dangling parts on the mega it could be proportionally smaller with the rest of the body parts. It's like those moncolle where the first stage is bigger proportionally than the evolved form cause the evolved form has to be shrunken down to fit the size with bigger wings, tails etc. But regardless it'll still be around 6" which is still big.
