>>11788872>JoJo line?The only real guess anyone with good experience has made is that these will be the larger figures (like the DC) unlike the Cyberpunk and Fast and the Furious, which were shown in Defender class.But unlike the Godzilla, they didn't even do a preview that gave an outline idea of a figure - so they probably didn't even have a prototype that a licensor has signed off on, so you potentially might wait longer than you want to. Depends on how patient you are?
>>11788872if youre willing to gamble your time on it being legends/champions class, maybe. or you could end up with a jojo galaxy blind box
>>11788858Any time frame on Jeff?
>>11788858Why is only Pokemon an issue? They're doing lots of other Japanese IP.
>>11788905Answered in the last thread - see both of these:>>11774648>>11774694It was news to me, so I can't really tell you more, some of the SEA anons probably know more - can tell you more.I probably should have cut that out from the last OP but I forgot all about it when I was editing stuff and carrying over. But I was making dinner and pirating some tv at the same time.
>>11788858I hate how everything else are plamos, instead of what Pokemon did
>>11788931>why plamo company makes plamoThere are still at least 6 whole blokees series that do the same thing as the pokemon ones
>>11788914>had a chance of getting actual Pokemon Trainer figures>was this close to get a posable Iono>snatched away from me due to chinese militaryGod fucking damn it
>>11788959It shouldnt be 6, it should be ALL of them
>>11788981I think you're wrong because I like plamos.
>>11788981No one likes troll posts, sonContribute something or keep it to yourself
>>11788914Damn, that's scary. I've seen news of cosplay issues, but not of beatings. Unfortunate, but if you're going to villify one it's weird to not to the others. Hopefully everything gets sorted out before long.
>>11788904The prototypes have been out for a while, there were posts in the last thread and those weren't new, I think they were at least a month old if not older. Given the while it took Rocket to hit North American sites for pre-order, unless you are in Asia, you're probably waiting till at least fall?
>>11788858When are they getting Dragon Ball?
>>11789165Didn't someone say that the DBZ rights are all tied up because that guy died? If that's the case, people who have a license right now, can continue to do shit, but people who want a new license, for whatever - not just toys - or NEED a license renewed, can't move forward
>>11789165>>11789301IIRC, Shueisha and Toei having part of the rights, but then Toriyama transferred his part of the rights to a studio named Capsule Corporation Tokyo which is helmed by Akio Iyoku, who was a close associated of Toriyama
I can't wait for their dinosaurs
>>11789402I hope Blokees does a Legends class Devil Dinosaur
>>11789301>because that guy diedwho? Ozzy Osborne, David Lynch or Hulk Hogan?
>>11789512Toriyama died, didn't heOr are you just sassing to sass
>>11789431Hm...
>>11789615I want to see David Lynch's dragonball now
>>11789660I want that - but only so I can use a bunch of water color and poster paint on it ....
blokees needs licenses that don't have multiple toylines like marvel or autobots.
>>11789942picrel unrelated, huh?
>>11789942>animu waifu list>they all look the same
I've just got the bruticus set as my first. You'd think a population who can barely see would have printed the instructions a bit bigger.
>>11789968Pic ABSOLUTELY related
>>11789431Love this design but can't get into it due to the associated character
I guess we can take Macy's and Toys R Us off the OP as a retail option in the states. This is the third one I have been to since the holidays with no stock and no employees having any clue.I did pick up some Dino eggs at the Walmart and a manga store had wave 1, so I grabbed two more.
>>11788858Tell me more about the Cyberpunk 2077 stuff. Are there any pictures yet? >>11788931Bro if you want the semi assembled figures just go buy Yolopark or Blokees kid lines
Tried my luck with a cheap naruto box Got Ino
>>11790928>Cyberpunk 2077It should be defender - and should be similarly to the Blokees Wheels - but not as boring (forgive me, Transformers fans) as the TF C01 and C02 lines but this will give you an idea:https://blokees.com/en-us/collections/blokees-wheels-toys/products/blokees-wheels-transformers-c02-wreck-and-ruleThey don't sell them in North America, but the figures/kits will likely look more like the recent Batmobiles, I would guess.
>>11790928>Are there any pictures yetAnd this generic promo art is that that's been released so far - AFAIK, there hasn't even been any unpainted protoypes released yet. But this is what the finished Batmobiles will look like: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/product/dc-comics-blokees-wheels-batman-e01-gotham-velocity-box-6-random-model-kits-187426 - but remember, these are Hot Wheel sized
reasonably priced, surprisingly, for a weeb/anime/ mostly manga store
Sadly, they only had one thing I wanted. Even shit that is legal, like minions and sesame street, they didn't carry
>>11791016>>11791018Oh, ok. Was hoping for some of the cyberpunk game or anime characters but the cars are pretty neat.
>>11791190>game or anime charactersThey make really small, humanoid figures with SOME of the Defender tier vehicles. I'm sure when they do the Fast and the Furious vehicles they will make them as well. You can see them on the Blokee's Official link I showed you, they are small and probably now what you had in mind.Also, I forgot to mention that the promo material they put out was for releasing these in 2027, so you got a bit of a wait. ALTHOUGH they did put out the Batmobile vehicles this year and did a new (additional) line of Transformer vehicles so far this year.
>>11791266>NOT what you had in mind.sorry was typing too fast You can see the "Drivers" here
>>11790949how tall are those?
Saw the Tarn and Nickel set in store today, tempted picking it up despite never reading the comics because I like Tarn's design a lot but I don't have enough spare income to drop $40 on it.
>>11791477Have the spare income But would want to get rid of some current crap firstWould also want to have more display space than I currently do
>>11791266>>11791269Interesting, do they have functioning cockpits for the mini figures?Ironically for Transformers it's like going back to Diaclone with the drivers.
>>11791373Ino is 10cm
>>11791734No, the drivers are for the Wheels line only. Also not all vehicles in the Wheels line can seat the drivers, like 1/3 the TF ones don't have enough space for them and the entire Batmobile wave is not compatible (hence they don't come with any batman minifigs)
>>11791172Third Eye Comics carried Minions and almost the entire line of Ultraman, but for some reason Sesame Street was going too far for them to bother. Stores are weird
Watch out
>>11791959I have a lot of comic shops in my metro area but the only ones I have hit (I still read, just don't buy any more) since I got into Blokees are still in their Funko or action figure phases, cards, etc. Things From Another World might have the Star Wars and Marvel Rivals blokees fnow that they are legal, but I haven't been there since last summer.
>>11791911That's the Nidoking next to her? So about 4 inches each? So not a blind box?
>>11791269Not including mini-batmen with the batmobiles was such a missed opportunity. Now I'mmalso wondering if micro machine/microverse figures can fit in the cockpits of these vehicles.
>>11791169>>11791172I'd flip for the chance to choose from such a selection. I've only got walmarts to shop at and while the few choices they carry always sell out the shelves rarely get restocked. >>11790137That ball was a real treat to build.
>>11792505Yeah, there's a Walmart about 5 miles away, they had two Transformers I've never seen in person, at a good price, and a butt load of Marvel Rivals Thor. They were supposed to have the MR Deadpool, Cap, and vanilla IM in stock but didn't. I wanted one of the Deadpool's for $14.99, the best price the website has is $19+ from a 3P Seller. They also were sold out of the Star Wars even though the website and app both claimed that had "low stock." I already ordered the three of those I wanted so I don't care, but still. Walmart is a "global partner"of Blokees so it's unclear why they don't get restocked, but I went to Target tonight and realized I haven't see a TF galaxy blind box inside a Target since probably before Black Friday.
>>11790410
Started seeing this Harley Quinn today. Hope that Invis is not long after. I think Moon Knight like was 2 weeks after Nightwing. Not too sure about Harleys legs here but her body looks good
>>11794282seems like she has an alt face
>>11794163Yooooo
>>11788858Red pill me, this line is getting shilled so hard by everyone. are they that impressive? are they cheap? why is everyone in love with Blokees.
>>11794291they are>cheap>detailed>wide IP coverage>shit out products real fastand most of all>gamblingI personally got into it because of their Pokemon line. I also got their eva 01 some months later was pleased with the quality. My favs from them rn are the 1/12 stormtrooper and moon knight
>>11794291If you like transformers, then I recommend going to Walmart to get the galaxy series transformers one wave (the entire case, fresh), because for $5 a piece you get a nice variety of figures, all of which have great articulation, decent details, and some cool accessories.The other stuff at $10 each is still great, and cases being guaranteed no dupes (almost, as it still does happen, just very rarely) basically eliminates the gambling aspect.
>>11794294>gamblingAnd if you don't want to gamba you can buy full cases for guaranteed full sets
anyone heard keeppley before or owning them, they making cheaper stuff like blokees now
>>11794391Yeah I have a few of their Kaiju model kits since they are same scale as Bandai action figures. No interest in keeppley's smaller figures tho.
>>11794397How is the quality?
>>11794291Cheap and fun, though I only get the defender class Transformers
>>11794413Pretty good for their price (99~128 RMB), with lots of parts separation so zero stickers. There are a lot of visible nubs though especially on the back, even on coated parts. There are also some weird decisions like how Lugiel's head LED is magnet-activated, but the chest is shake-activated.Their smaller figures should be ok too. Keeppleey is actually Enlighten/Q-Man, one of the more reputable Chinese brick makers that had early access to Ultraman, Pokemon, Conan, etc IPs. Then Blokees came along and blew past them with the same IPs, so now they're playing catch-up.
>>11794385there's still a bit of gambling as with the case for defenders edition for example, the rare in a single case can only be 1 of the 4 rares.
>>11794304>>11794291Walmart, at least in retail, in person, is a waste of time. I have yet to see a case after looking in person in six different cities, approximately 10+ different (or simply same store, several months apart) attempts to look for Blokees since last summer. That said, >>11794291 if anon wants a case they should definitely ORDER from Walmart (since $35 will net them free delivery) as that you can get.
Anyone here ordered blokees from Ali? Coverage of them in Europe is a bit sketchy and I've heard of people ordering the Transformers ones from Ali with no issues
>>1179453499% of my Blokees purchases come from Ali as a good baguetteman, and I've never had issues. Just choose a store with good ratings and you should be fine.
>>11794534>>11794577I have two issues with ordering from Ali (and this is the States) and both revolve around the delivery. I've posted about both on earlier Blokee's thread and other /toys/ thread here and elsewhere. One problem was a lack of delivery (UmiUmi's fault) where the driver either miss-delivered the case to the wrong address and the recipient just kept it - or possibly even tossed them) or worse, the driver just kept the case and claimed it was delivered (offering up what clearly looks like a small, flat book or magazine sized item as photographic proof of a Blokee's case). To Ali's credit, they gave me a full refund ($80 or so?) and I didn't need to wait too long (about 7-10 days) from start to finish. But my first order with Ali and second UmiUmi (delivery service) problem was a single large action figure received but in a very damaged box.There they offered to pay for delivery back - but wouldn't guaranteed a full refund until they 'inspected' the package and it was going to take a while. Most sources told me not to accept it. My CC company already told me they would fully refund me so I accepted a partial credit but it annoyed me because when I finally opened up the box, part of two joints were cracked. I was able to glue them but I shouldn't have had to do so. >>11794534>EuropeIf all you want is Transformers, there are stores in the EU and in the UK that sell and ship to the EU. It's other Blokees licenses you would need to find elsewhere, but that might have improved as well.
>>11794727I mean, most of my champions boxes came flattened but I never had an issue with broken pieces or the like. Blokees boxes, mainly Champions Class aren't really strong enough to resist international shipping without another box on top of them, but no matter how fucked up the box was, I never had an issue with the contents, and I have quite a lot of them.
>>11794734>I never had an issue with the contentsThe plastic wrapping bag that Umi Umi put my Blokee's Champion box in, also had two Chinese BootLEGOs that were barely $2 each including the shipping/tax fee charged (for what normally sell for $20 and one of them was a retired set, so most asshole sell it for $40-60 even used on ebay). Those just came with the reprinted instructions booklet with the covers torn off but all the pieces were ALL just dumped in those cellophane wrapper bags. And none of those were cracked or broken. But when I opened up my Champion box two of the trays were mostly separated and one of those is a joint piece and it was cracked into two, like a toothpick can be cracked. Not hard to glue together, I just used gorilla glue and taped it up while it was drying/curing. So far is seems fine and it's an internal joint so nothing 'shows.' The other one is on the dog and it's visible if you turn the dog around in your hands and inspect it. So it's the one that annoys me. I will eventually buy a clean box somewhere and replace/sell this off.It came inside a fairly stable look box. Don't get me wrong, I'm probably going to order some more Chinese BootLEGO from Ali sometime soon, and I've been wanting to order a CT, but I doubt I will order something like a model kit from them, not as long as Ali continues to use UmiUmi in the States for the last mile.
>>11794734PICREL is the alleged Blokee's case - Galaxy class - so it should contain an approximate 12" x 12" x about 6" cardboard box. That door you see by the UmiUmi driver's feet is also not my door or even a door into my complex. It's about 10 feet NEAR the large (big enough for a vehicle to drive through) gate to my complex, but that door the driver left this at is a clearly marked fire equipment access door for the fire department. It's not even a locked and secure area. At least when fucking OnTrac does a shitty delivery job and doesn't leave crap at my unit, they do leave it INSIDE the gated courtyard. This was also dropped off in the middle of the night, like at 3 am. Someone wrote on another thread that UmiUmi uses a lot of SEA expats going to school as drivers and thought some of them were like really tired pre-med students after an 18 hour shift who has just crammed as many packages as they could into the trunk of like a Toyota Camry and that's why shit got so damaged and so many miss-delivery mistakes are made.
>>11794964did you blow up their customer service? i'd spam ticket after ticket if I was wronged this way.
>>11795441Well, I spent more time than I should have with UmiUmi - they actually at one point were pointing to also giving me a refund but what I want/wanted was my fucking case. But it still took a week once I made a claim on Ali before they decided to refund me the entire amount even though I have better proof, like a close-up of the address showing it was clearly not my address. I'm just not going to dox myself on this shit hole site.And then once they agreed to refund me, it took another 3/4 business days for my CC company to confirm. It's not out of my checking account and didn't impact anything but I can see for people who pay out of their checking account or have limited credit that it would be painful and a huge hassle.
Just ordered this case for 25% off
where are these leaks coming from anyway
>>11796754catalogues they send to sellers for soliciting orders, usually it's the SEA ones that leak them.
>>11796754Hmm big head, low shoulders, wide hips, tiny hands...seems like they took some awful advice from hasbro
also invisible woman render. god i hope we get a second face like harley
>>11796754>>11796770It looks a little like they just upscaled a tad bit in size and made less cartoon-looking in appearance from the Galaxy blind boxes they released - in 2022?
>>11796738If someone does identified boxes, I'd be interested in a few of those and the Narutos (sp?)
>>11796947See if you can figure out Taobao, they sell identified ones day-1, and even loose individual spare parts.
>>11796799Funny how she's way more shapely and well sculpted than spiderman above while also being a more complex design I guess chinese love their made at home moba designs
>>11796770Have you seen Tom Holland in the new movie? He literally has a big ass and wide hips.
What are the chances we get a Supergirl fig? Always wanted that Revlotech Supergirl but the price is absurd. After buying the Superman Blokees I'm absolutely blown away by the fig. I just wish the other Blokees DC figs weren't some ugly mecha OC crap. Why not just give us nice classic comic book designs?
>>11797019Invisible Woman is a more recent design. We've already talked here and it's been discussed elsewhere that Blokees seems to be improving on and redoing designs with nearly every iteration. Unlike say McFarlane, or Hasbro, or Mattel, they are reusing molds BUT they are also able to alter and fix things versus getting stuck only being able to reuse an entire full mold.I mean, how many Hasbro figures have those holes in the back where a gear pack would (Joe's) or something like a Cap shield go would go (Legends) but in the released toy is just a hole in the back of the torso?
>>11797019i think its just their art direction with each line in general. it seems like anything live action will be somewhat stylised like the superman. meanwhile harley quinn is quite shapely too
Driver compatibility is getting worse every wave
>>11797092Based on the Justice League defenders (which are based on the Snyder movies), we will eventually get more comic accurate looks. But based on the fact that they did a movie look for CorenSupes and these upcoming Defenders, it looks like they are licensed to do the films.So I do think we will get a Supergirl - eventually. But that's just a guess. And honestly, I thought it would be for sale in SEA by now - or at least a prototype, but we are barely getting a Spider-Man for the movie instead. Also, don't forget we got a very normalish looking Nightwing and a pretty normal (for the cartoon) Batman Beyond.
>>11797427we're getting hush batman stuff for champions and they look really solid. they dont look as cartoony as corenswet superman
>>11789942BU-BU-BU-BASED
I need sakura and ino
>>11797789i need them to do tsunade. with articulated boobs a-la frame arms girls
>>11797496Thought it looked fine;At most - problem might be the Gunn suit
>>11798003you can tell that he's stylised. he looks like corenswet superman was animated. its necessarily a bad thing, just not accurate to the actual movie. brand new day spiderman seem like he'll have the same treatment.
I got thisWhy is there a blank face?I am missing the extra decal sheet or something?>The figureI appreciate it for what it is but you really need a stand for it. The leg joints are not strong enough to handle the weights. I don't know why I did not provide a stand for this one when the other smaller non clothes sets have it
>>11798306Thats just regular bjd for you. The blank face it's for customization (some people get decals, some paint the eyes directly) and yeah they are usually looser than an action figure
>>11798306see if there's a water slide decal sheet. i have the fantastics miku and she also comes with blank faces as well as water slide decals
>>11798323NahNothing in the box besidea the general instruction and the character car Here is the figure with the smaller Miku set I will try to get the goth looking Miku one and Jetstream sam suit for the SD Miku once I am back from my trip in June.They ship these directly from china and takes at least 2 weeks to get here.
Any word on xenomorphs being a potential IP Blokees will be making figures of?
>>11798380hmmm a thats odd. are you sure its not still in a bag or something? if there really is no decal, what does blokees expect people to put on blank faces? not like they sell water slide decals by as is
>>11798470Again, that's just how a lot of bjd are. The blank face is for customization
>>11798081>just not accurate to the actual movieI think we're thinking different things when we use words like "animated" or "cartoony."The blind box Marvel Spidey & Friend Hasbro toy equivalents that Blokees does, which I think look okay, and even purchased one (to get the Spider-Ham) are what I think of as "cartoony" and that look like action figures of "animated" characters, in the same way the VHS Spider-Man does for Marvel Legends (or a more recent example, the ML Zombie Hunter Spidey from the What If! animated cartoon, or the ATSV 6 inch figures). I don't think the BND Spidey will look much different than the Galaxy Class blind box.
>>11798441That's be great if so. Can never have too many ayylmaos.
Hasbro bout to pull the Transformers license from Blokees aren't they
>>11799433That'll be weird since Takara just became Blokees' JP distributor. Hasbro could cockblock Blokees from NA though.
>>11798380Point is it could have inadvertently been omitted from your package.
>>11798306>I don't know why I did not provide a stand for thisI actually think it would be great if Blokees sold stands separately. As to the why, I know people were complaining on the TF forums about the stands, lack of stands, needing to use stands (really display bases) for those kits and they got rid of them with - I think wave 7? Or around that time frame? I forget since I don't collect TF. >>11799433no gossip about it yet on reddit and it's filthy with the Blokees TF fans and they seem to have all the insider (SEA) knowledge, since it's mostly people from there.
>>11799433this toyline will fucking die because hasbro will find out hard it is to make good tolerance for snapfit and not to mention the average north american being too braindead to handle lego, let alone model kits. i have seen too many marvel collectors skip on blokees because they are too stupid to build and these people are basically what supports hasbro. i cant see this line surviving
>>11799433If they're smart, they just make 1/12 scale vehicles for their other lines. Like a BARQ speeder for Star Wars. maybe horses for Marvel characters that ride horses as their thing, chopper bikes for the GI Joes or even Ninja bikes. It'd be stupid to compete with blokees. Then again, Hasbro CEO is stupid.
>>11799607chill out, sperg
Fun with Blokees
>>11799719I want to get that "not a cat" just for the hell of it (have no idea how pokemon works) but can't see paying nearly $40 for it ...
>>11799881It's like a bear-cat thing
>>11800095hes talking about meowscarada AKA furry waifu>>11799881where the hell are you getting $40? that place is scamming you. I paid 50MYR for it which is like $13
>>11800130Im sure he's talking about snorlax but yeah pokemon blokees have gone up in price specially snorlax and Charizard even when there is still good stock of it. Meowscarada is like $20 right now
anyone know what current Blokees has the biggest tits
>>11800662Any of the evangelion girls. Invisible woman coming soon prob gonna them bigger tho
>>11800686Nah, I'm pretty sure she's got the biggest rack, Sue Storm or not.
>>11800691Those fantastics series would be soo good if they didn't have that gummy plastic. It was only okay when they were $20
Harley final announcement. I don't like her but I think she's pretty well sculpted. Sadly it has only 2 faces which is specially bad for a character like this
>>11801196
>>11801284a lot of plastic budget going into that hammer. unfortunately Invis probably wont have an extra face as it seems like it didnt show at the back of the box displaying accessories
>>11801196>>11801284>>11801286>no domino mask>no harlequin headdress>not even white face paint ARLEEN SORKIN I'M SORRY, I'M SO SORRY
>>11801196>>11801284>>11801286If I didn't know better I'd assume this was a license free third party design
>>11801286>>11801284>>11801196Just another in the shit list of only gooners buy
>>11802475>comic book figure>gooner>comic bookyou know the only reason comic books sell is because they wear tight as fuck body suits and you see everything. this is like buying an eva girl figure and complaining you can see their 14 year old developing breasts
Post toys or something
Up for pre-order tomorrow
>>11802787look at that slutty waist
>>11800662>>11800686>>11800691you know fake plastic boobies are not real, correct?
>>11800095>>11800130"he's talking" about the Snorflax and locally where I am, I'm not being scammed, just overpaying because 'imports' and 'license' bullshit
>>11802862i mean thats big bad toy store so youre paying their big bad tax
>>11801284>>11801196>>11801286what the fuck is thisHarley?why she looks like robotwy she looks like a normal Stacey...just slightly depressedwhy she dont have Laughing/crazy face
>>11802930if you want classic harley you just gotta wait for the hush batman line to expand. it was pretty obvious this specific DC line wasnt going for their classic looks in case you guys were sleeping under a rock and missed the previous 2 releases that look nothing like their comic counterpart
It's known that DC mandates even the face expressions on toys. This harley is DC's idea
>>11802678>something
>>11803188This is what I thought the MegaMan license would be instead we got hot garbage.
>>11801196>her hope and optimism: gone
>>11802918>i mean thats>big bad taxWhat's Ali's excuse?AND $33 is the welcome offer, which is not what I would get. And it's the choice deal, which is all I would accept from AE. It's bad enough my box will get crushed by UmiUmi, without dealing with one of the scammers on Ali.
Not bad for $15.
thoughts?
>>11803520
>>11803521is this how legend TF are built? i dont remember if legend eva had this inner skeleton
>>11803520https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JX9gcHO1d6oHe looks pretty sick. Also he's a fairly big lad.
>>11803525All the TF ones have had an inner skeleton. >>11803520He looks great, but what's next, more Optimus or other Prime? Though, if we do get more Optimus I'd be interested in their interpretations of various more modern versions.
>>11803559>He looks great, but what's next, more Optimus or other Prime?They're doing a 2.0 G1 Prime apparently followed by an IDW Autobot Megs since that's his fusion cannon poking out of the space bridge.
>>11803564Right i forgot about him. I appreciate the little redesigns, and the carryover of the Siege shield/axe is always fun. I guess the original Prime is mostly a standalone, always looking a bit more cartoony than the rest.
>>11803576I'll add that I'm missing the articulated fingers though. If they want to do alt hands it'd be fun if they still came with articulated hands, kind of like Yolopark often does.
So, does anyone have the Machamp? I have the Tomy articulated figure from ten years ago and am wondering if it's worth getting the Blokees? Also, what's the situation with the line? We getting more mons soon?
>>11803480mine is still in the box, the han arrived today, even cheaper at $13+
>>11803604>Machampyou are better off asking on reddit or just lurking on the blokees facebook pagejust use your gam gam's account to read thatand for reddit you don't need one, just browser searchyou can still buy the machamp in asia you cant in the states cept from scalpers and third party sellers
>>11803604if the charizard is any indiciator, it should be really good. you can probably find reviews of this guy already>>11803564the 2.0 looks so fucking sick
>>11803693There don't seem to be a lot of (at least English language) reviews of Blokees that aren't that SirDork dude or aren't very generic and general, or Transformers
>>11802064she ded jim
I don’t understand how these are pinless but mcfarlane isn’t. Do these take longer to assemble? I put mine together pretty fast.
>>11804441the simple asnwer is mcfarlane toys are wack and stuck in the past. the longest assembly was probably Legend Eva 01 which had so many tiny pieces. Moon Knight took me about 2 hours because I was sanding and cleaning nub marks. sanding takes more time than the actual assembly
>>11803520I hope they make more because I really want the Decepticons (mostly Knockout)
Well if anyone wanted some toy story that is not mattel crap or having to fetch the Revo stuff, here is this. And of course they come with it's own awful naming lol: Toy Story ELITE VERSION 01
>>11804622Is there a rape face?
>>11804622Judging my the pic below they almost look Marvel Legend sized, It's about all I wanted reallyI know there was a 2.0 Revoltech that was basically just the original with an extra change or two and a huge ass fucking $180+ Chogokin that's the "Ultimate" really but I was hoping for an actually just good sturdy Action Figure of them
>>11794727>>11794960>>11794964yeah I hate to say it but ali has let me down when it comes to figures shipping in good condition, everything else has been fine for me on the most part. shame too cause now I have to wait for bo katan and mando on like amazon or something, same case might be for the upcoming ones as well
>>11804622I wish Blokees, just this once, they would give us moveable eyes for their faceplate. I wish they would do DTVA too but they are set on films.
>>11804771just ask the seller for some reinforced packaging and they'll likely do it. ive had ali purchases that come in those styrofoam cooler things that they put seafood in. of course it wasnt a used one. but very protective. i would also advice recording unboxings for anything that comes from china>>11804774even bandai doesnt give us movable eyes or kotobukiya. model kits tend to focus on decals but thats only if they give out extra faces like miku
>the only real classes were hero5/8/10, champion, and legendsi guess the rest were just mental illnesses
>>11804836That's literally on the op. I wrote that like 3 threads ago. Still, it's kind of a mess because they are not even classes anymore they are series. And there is also other series like Dalamode having like 3 different kind of formats (Big dolls, small dolls, nendos)
>>11804865i wasnt even aware hero 8 was a thing. i guess now we have champion lite
>>11804836>>11804865>also other series like DalamodeAnd we now have other OTHER series like Fantastics>>11804802I haven't tried that yet, but I am about to break down and try another order from Ali. I tried a case thinking that would help, and it doesn't - because a case just comes in that box and those boxes are thin - fine for a display in a aisle at Target or Wally's but shit for a plastic bag some asshole UmiUmi driver shoves into their Kia trunk.>>11804771Like I wrote, surprisingly, other things like my KO Chinese BlockLEGO set, that literally came in just cellophane packages when it's some 200 pieces, and literally can more easily crack or have labels easily peel off, came in near mint condition and it was my brand new Blokees that were trashed all to hell. The only problem with the "brick compatible" KO I ordered from Ali actually turned out to be a few missing pieces, which I may have actually lost under the table since I built it in my community room with a few of the neighbor kids. And there are several mall LEGO stores nearby so easy to cheaply get those pieces.
>>11804771>mando on like amazon or somethingBBTS has the Champion and Grogu for $29.99; EE has it for $2 less. It's possible GameStop might carry it but if EE is selling it, it's legal to sell in the USA and that means you might find it at Walmart for less than retail, like the Darth and Han/Luke Troopers. The Bo Katan I can't help you with.>>11804622Goddess, I hope to fuck these are legal in the States. I want those fucking aliens as kits, but cheaply
>>11803520gimme a Miko blockees
>>11804622how tall is this elite version
>>11805415We don't know yet "ELITE VERSION" It's another confusing name that has been used for a coupe of hours since the announcement. But they do look too detailed for being little figurines (hero5-10) maybe they are gonna be their own series like the sesame street ones
>>11805168actually just bought the bo katan at walmart for $20
where are the photos? do any of the blokees shills even own the shit?
>>11806076go back to the marvel or star wars shithole that you came from. you have price increases to argue about
Sleeping gwen
>>11806076Huh?
They need to get more mecha license.
kepppleey OC crab people
>>11806432and lobster joos
>>11806432>>11806434are these keepley's original IP? i've also been thinking, should we include Keepley in these threads? Because theyre kinda similar to blokees and their Ultraman stuff has been top tier lately especially the kaiju
>>11806621Maybe? Thing is, every other toy company in China, mostly brick makers, have made their own competing lines, so you'd be letting those in too. Might not be a bad thing with some variety.
>>11806745Blokees & friends (in the same vein as the girlpla threads) could be good. are these defender sized btw?
>>11806761Yeah 5.5cm. They also made MCBs in Galaxy size but gave up after 1 wave and a repaint-wave.
>>11806773i guess they just didnt have a lot of characters to pull from
i really like the stormtrooper but the knee joint always put me off
>>11806066Congrats. I am stuck ordering from them and a good third of time they cancel or fuck up the local delivery, which is annoying as fuck. There are stores "near" me if you considered an hour and several freeways "nearby.">>11806307I wouldn't mind them doing their own line (similar to the Hirospire they release) of retro-futuristic robots, but nice, clean 1950s inspired look and feel - which I appreciate is more Japanese than Chinese, but they have to accept that unless they want to only sell in China, they have to appeal to a broader market - and frankly, the Japanese have them beat on pop cultural importance.
looks like the toy story stuff is a blind box. i guess theyre hero 10 size?
>>11807827Eh, I just want the aliensShame I'll have to pay for an identified one I wouldn't necessarily object to the dino but that's about it, I don't really care for the rest
>>11807827Awful how everytime there are more and more blindboxes. Makes me think that one of the reasons Pokemon has not returned (even when other chinese pokemon products returned already) is that they are rebranding everything into blind boxes. They already did that with the Minions when they used to be regular product like sesame street and pokemon
>>11807984lucky for you theyre probably the least desired ones>>11807999dont think they'll ever do that for pokemon. its still just china military bullshit. plus, theres only so much minions. its bound to go into blind box territory when they complete the rounds for the 10th time
>>11806432>>11806434>>11806621>should we include Keepley in these threads?>because theyre kinda similar to blokeesThese examples of "Keep Pley's" packaging and even logo makes me think they are a Chinese KO company wanting people to confuse them for Blokees; the other Keeppley stuff I find on-line all looks like third party blocklego knock-offs, and we ALREADY have a decently popular and successful Knock-Off and 3P Brick general.The Keeppley that isn't quite LEGO, that even looks like gunpla military planes or Qposket figurines, or that looks like, yes, Blokees, such as their Ultraman, I personally don't think that last bit is enough to tack on Keeppley to the Blokees General.>>11806745>>11806761That said, if a lot of people actually wanted it, I wouldn't argue vehemently against it.A few have been asking for a Third Party Chinese toy gen of late - I made a post about CT/Mess and asked why we didn't have a gen to talk about KOs (without thinking specifically of Chinese KO), even if it was just -- at least -- an infrequent, irregular general. And some of the few people who chimed in that we should have a 3rd Party Chinese Gen. I don't know if it's the same two or three people, but we're not going to know until it's tried out. Right now, someone tried an Revo/AY Gen and no one seems interested even if those toys are actually probably more popular that that "unpopular" Gen would imply.
>>11807999>more and more blindboxesThat's not at all true.We've had Naruto, Saint, and Ultraman sets, most of which are really reasonable to order the entire case - none of which would net you a duplicate. And singles of Saints, Evas, Narutos, Transformers, Star Wars, Marvel Rivals, etc. etc.That's a good chunk of the "recent" stuff. Blind boxes is part of the Blokees brand. It's like complaining that McFarlane only releases Batman figures.Or that Marvel Legends only releases Spider-Man figures.
>>11808077Theyre not even close to KOs who are trying to trick people into buying them. Theyre like a respectable rival. like megabloks to legos, keeppley to blokees. I mean just look at this. Not even Bandai's FRS line can offer something like this
>>11808087>Theyre not even closeI wasn't claiming them, or even suggesting that, friend.I was saying - if all I knew and saw was those two packages, especially the lego design, that's what would come to mind. If what I found is all the same company, then they are doing a bunch of types of toys - more like Hasbro or Mattel than what Blokees is doing, which is more simply scale of the same exact thing, across their multiple IP lines. ALSO - there's nothing stopping you from making your own Keepley general.
Got this absolute cutie from the walmart today. The second egg I picked up had a severed trike skull and I was so fucking let down because I wanted another buildable figure, not an invite to continue to gamble. What a delightful mini kit, I'm hooked off one the first one.If only they scaled these dinosaurs up and improved the articulation I cannot see Mattel mattering anymore.
Is jeff gonna be big like rocket or not
>>11808947since he's non-human, he's probably gonna be big unlike the humans so far which are about 1/12. rocket and jeff are the same height in the game. Rocket is about 1/7 scale standing at 13.8cm so Jeff is probably gonna be that big too. I wonder though, because we know Invisible woman's box and from that, her height, but no signs of Jeff. Is Jeff not gonna release alongside her? i guess he could be early July as solo release. I can't see BND Spiderman being that far from movie date.
>>11808417I keep seeing those Bandai kits, which are larger dinos, at Ross, for like $8-15 depending on the animal. If those were as easy-to-build, like Blokees, I might have picked one up.
>>11808947>>11808981>he's probably gonna be bigHe is big, they have shown the prototype and it's as big as the Moon Knight in scale.
Blokees Invisble Woman listings have started popping up on Ali
>>11810199Weren't they actually popping up like a few weeks or were those the prototype of the boxes? >>11804865You want to do the next OP? Does that need to be updated? We're probably about ready to bump up a fresh thread maybe when there's a new actual major drop that isn't Transformers or Marvel?
>>11810702that was just the box. it popped up shortly after MK released. Ive been checking ali daily since i saw harley popped up so this was the first time I actually found a listing so it definitely showed up in the last 24 hours
>>11810744I think some Australian sites had it up but those might have been pre-orders?
>>11811759could be. were they taking deposits? the aliexpress ones seem to be full price (marked up) i definitely didnt see them before
>>11794727My Eva 01 tv arrived today.Ordered from Aliexpress.The box is not fucked like my rebuild one.
>>11811876BASED BASEEED
>>11811876I guess the UmiUmi driver put your package at the top of the delivery pile when they shoved it all in to their Kia Sport?
>>11812137Your deliveryman probably
For whomever does the next OP, here's an updated "where to buy"https://paste2.org/Bt4fPtOKI cleaned up the domestic and double checked the Canadian and UK. I am sure there are probably places I still missed so if anyone wants to chime IN and provide update, happy to clean this up some more, but figure someone else can OP, perhaps one of the other people who started this gen or the guy who wrote up the Blokees FAQ?
>>11811876I finished the main body.Just like my Eva 1 rebuild kit, some piece of the chest tends to pop off.Also the positron rifle is a pin in the ass to build.
>>11812442For a second I thought this was a show render. They did a really nice job with this.
>>11812363The panels on the torso are a bitch, one of mine even came with a stress mark out of the runner too, which means that it falls if I look at it funny. I really dislike the kit honestly, probably my least favorite Blokees product, and I've been collecting them for longer than most.
>>11809550>>11810199When is my boy Jeff coming out?
>>11812689i contacted one of the sellers and they said invis is late june. i assume jeff releases with her like spidey and venom.
>>11812540Write to the service email and ask them to swap out/replace the piece?
>>11812540I just watend the EVA unit be a semi assembleia figure like the Mikus ones.Tried pose again and the little piece of his shoulder pop when extending the arms.Bandai refuse to release a proper RG kit original Roboto Damashi tv version.
I've read you can get free stuff on the app for scanning enough of your card has anyone actually done that?
>>11813065I noticed they finally announced an American port for the app, in the steady dump of emails they keep pumping out and sending me, but I've been too busy to download it and check it out. People in the SEA countries have reported here and elsewhere that they are getting stuff. However, I'm not sure if it depends on the actual distributors in that particular territory - meaning people in say the USA or in say Brazil are SOL?
Well, they are putting out more of this kinda crap, like the Sanrio Hello Kitty - and if that's all they'll produce, I guess I won't waste time trying to get claw machine aliens from Asia?
>>11812976All our hopes and dreams are on Threezero's hands...
>>11808417These from those orange eggs? Cause when I bought two I got the same exact dino, and both were translucent blue plastic. Are they not meant to be colored like the packaging?
>>11812976Both rebuild and og tv
>>11813102for SEA they distribute through Shopee which is like SEA Amazon. The user will get a QR redeem I believe and they will simply contact customer service. Not entirely sure though as I havent bought a whole case yet. They will probably use something similar in other regions>>11813223huh TV is a little shorter
>>11813268I know people who buy on Shopee but most of them aren't into toys. However, on reddit people post about getting all sorts of Blokees related stuff via the app and it doesn't seem connected with having to buy a case, but just buying and being active?
>>11813186>those orange eggsThere are three waves of the blind box dinos, and each wave has some 'chase' figures - and things like the translucent blue tend to be those, I believe, since the civilian drivers on the defender vehicles are considered chases and those were translucent blue. But they should look like PICREL if you bought the entire case. You probably got unlucky in that someone dumped two cases together and that's where you drew from. But you should be able to easily sell it, possibly for even more than you paid for it.
>>11813610i just meant buying a case just for completing a set. one of the events with redemption rn is to collect 9 of the Hero 10 S Ultraman so buying a case will make it easy
>>11813223Not something that interests me but they look good. Do they pose as good as they look?Someone else posted elsewhere that the new pilots and their vehicles don't scale with these in very obvious ways?
>>11813186NTA but if he said he got it from Walmart, it probably is the orange egg kits that sell for about $3. The last store I went to was in a poor suburb where people line up in the California heat for when they put the trading cards out for sale because they don't have work and they have no jobs. That Walmart had a few of the original Jurassic toys, which are the tiny boring boxes just printed to look like crates. So anon might have bought that.The next series has already been out and they went back to boring printed boxes. No idea why it's taking so long for them to be sold in the States?
better look at champions BND spidey
>>11814110He looks a bit like having boobs lol
>>11814121dont make me see things that i cannot unsee
>>11812442>>11812886TFP is far from my favorite iteration of the franchise, I think it started off on a high note and became incrimentally worse over time, but having said as much I'm baffled by how good this kit turned out. I cant stop watching reviews of. Frankly I'm very tempted to buy one but I really want a Nemesis colorway of it with a Silas in place of the matrix. I know it's not accurate to the show or whatever but it'd be cool.
>>11812976>>11813223That an upstart like blokees did Eva this much justice is still crazy to me. Part of me wonders why they havent done smaller kits for the series as they have with capeshit, star wars,and transformers. I doubt anyone would turn down pocket sized angels. You could do a bunch of blokees wheels for the series aswell.>>11814110Despite how checked out I am with Marvel I will admit the recent kits all look pretty solid. That Spidey might be the best of all their releases thus far. It'd pair well with their Superman.
>>11814121>>11814223Nah, we call those pecs.It's like all the perma virgins during the last DC General - literally complaining that the new Mattel line is 'too sexy' because of the lips or the 'breast' on a plastic toyif you're having sex, you don't get easily excited by renders or underwear catalogues
>>11814688i dont think it's that deep
>buy case of Defenders>only missing the 1 that got replaced by the rarer version>it costs over half the price of another boxfeels like I should just get another box and gamble for it since I'll get more figures anyway
>>11814566>how checked out I am with MarvelYep.I bought all of them because they were fucking $15 each at WM except for the Venom but some of these I will probably hold on to for a year and then turn around and sell, unopened.I have no interest at all in building Iron Man or Wolverine.
>>11814795i'd honestly just buy the missing one
>>11814795>>11814849his point is that scalpers want so much for that one missing one, he could just as easily buy a case and get more figuresit's not rocket scientist level math, fren
>>11814899but he said box though
>>11814832Somehow Wolverine and Deadpool still seem like highlights of the line. To your credit however thor, cap, and IM do all seem so stale. Disney really needs to wake up and smell the coffee. These designs are beyond tired at this point. Imagine if Warner was still pushing the Batman Forever costume a decade after the movie released, that's where disney's at.
According to some chinese orders, these are the releases for June. Taken from the redditSo, this is a little weird to me, BND Spiderman is BEFORE Invisible Woman and Jeff despite being numbers after them. I guess that explains all the renders. This would track with the info I asked from one of the sellers on Ali who said Invisble woman was end of June.
>>11813689>buying a case just for completing a set.gotchayeah i misunderstood your point and misread it!although thought some of the point of the app (in SEA) was scoring points and redeeming those for merch or is it redeeming those for discounts?
>>11814969case/box the point is he is buying more than one
>>11815145from what i can tell, you redeem a special edition of something for free. or you can redeem a part for the combiners. I think six shot is the current one for the combiners
>>11815026I hope that TS Elite Edition means at least some 3 or so inch high aliens and some 4-5 inch high Woody's, Buzz, etc. Otherwise, I don't care.And most of the rest of this is uninteresting. If Jeff is $15 at Walmart, I'll grab one but otherwise, nothing really excites, at least it's only a few months of waiting for something else?
>>11815145>>11815297Based on what I can find, you scan using a Blokees applet within Wechat. You'll also need to have a Chinese forwarder address and wechat pay already set up to pay for the shipping. There's also an international blokees app on google store, not sure how that works or if you can use the mainland China releases with it
>>11815393china releases wont scan in the international app. i tried it. none of them scans
anyone has KR legend scale? how is it cause the price is not cheap
>>11815393I think when I see people talking about it, it must be an international app. The only people I have ever known who lived in China were actually either American's or Brits (or some other kids who spoke English and were working for like 4-6-8 months on those contracts where they come in and teach English. And I haven't known anyone whose done THAT since Blokees were a thing. The people I know today in the SEA are in Vietnam or Australia. Or it's post I've read elsewhere or people I've chatted with elsewhere and a few comments here (I think we have someone from Malaysia or maybe it was Indonesia who pops into /toys regularly to chat blokees, besides likely others? I know there's some LATAM folks who have posted about Blokees but I don't remember them talking about having an app?
>>11815714You don't need to live in China or know Chinese to use Wechat but whether you can access the Blokees applet from the localized versions, idk.
>>11815484Kamen Riders?They make 'em that big?
>>11816207yes this one is next
>>11816323seems waaaaay better than Bandai's model kit:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ny-bnjNe2zc
>>11816394Their ultraman kits were generally better than bandai but they had to make them 1/10 instead of 1/12 so they wouldn't compete
>>11816420the bandai ones are like 1/11.5 or something they are bigger than the standard SHF who are generally 1/12 even though they are actually non-scale. of course, this assumes that the ultras are at their human height but man the quality gap between blokees ultra kits and FRS is night and day. even the plastic quality looks better
>>11816394oh nice, hope they make black or black rx soon
>>11816443>even the plastic quality looks betterthat actually often feels like the case when everything else is very similar
