Welcome to the 1:18th general. All 1:18th scale lines are welcome, including larger scales that may work with 1:18th. Post pics of your latest purchases, dios, customs and whatever else you feel like posting. We encourage mixing lines.

>>11894811bump
>>11894811proooooooooh :D
Is JoyToy still doing their yearly waves of army builder figures?
>>11895515Yeah, it's kinda crazy how many lines they are able to maintain. Though I guess the Turtle's line is ending soon, so they might have reached their limit.
>>11895358 I have suggestions for that scene and those figures but this might not be the right thread.
>>11895984FREEZE, COOMER!!
Sucks that Joytoy's Starcraft stuff is gonna be 1/25 scale and not 1/18 like their warhammer figures
>>11898120huh, interesting choice. I guess they're thinking long term to the vehicles and doing them like their dark source mechs.
>>11898120I heard they're also doing them in 1:18, but only certain characters.
>>11898120honestly with how underscaled the warhammer vehicles are maybe there will still be some good use for them
I've missed the last few threads and I'm pissed I didn't see them.
There's a bunch of Hero H.A.C.K.S. figures up for preorder on BBTS now. Pirates and this Alien. I really feel like this is a miss though, three heads and none of them are the standard grey alien look? Fuck nobody wants to do them.
Got my eye on this guy as well
>>11901957No Grey head sucks, why even include a pug head?
>>11901957>>11902326I'm more miffed by not having this guy, or even just either of his alien heads, not made at this scale. It so annoying when companies pull this shit and decide to start dicking around back and forth in multiple scales within the same toyline yet don't make the figures, or even versions of them, available in both.
>>11901237Very cool setup anon.
Would it be possible to scan these little fucks,part by part and then 3d print? And if possible could you change the joints?I don't have any skills in either but what would someone estimate the costs would be like?
>>11903254do you ever have people stare at you while playing with your toys?
>>11903299 Actually had a guy watch and offer to post them on a local arts page. I lost his email though. (which kind of pisses me off.) He was more interested in the shots I had already taken. I've also had to call out as people balls deep in their phones notice nothing sometime. There were two guys this year who were fishing in the small park near my place who I saw frequently this year. Shared a joint with two dudes last year. so...not really?
Beaches can get people in the back of your shot till they amble away. and dogs. Dogs crazily running down beaches ain't gonna stop. Also had a pair of ducks that would come and get in my way. I would bribe them with grapes further down the way.
>>11903398 Also, (and I suspect this is what you are fishing for - if you are taking pictures of toys with a phone people DO look at you differently than taking pics of toys with a camera.
>>11903299People would always ask me if I was doing stop motion. Frankly you get more shit online on IG because anytime you comment something someone doesn't like they tell me to "go play with my LEGOS"
>>11903559>Top Gun Anthem intensifiesDamn I miss 21st Century, Bbi et al.
>>11903299nta, but I've only ever had a kid and his mom come up and ask about where I bought my dinosaurs. I felt bad when I told them the BOtM Tyrannosaurus was $200 because the mom said "oof".
>>11904226 I think the guy wanted embarrassing or awkward stories. I'm always very open to let a curious person see what the pictures vrs the setup looks like. It often blows their minds a little. Then there is stuff I take on my balcony.
This would've been awesome
>>11904264 Still looks like it's gonna be.
Last thread I talked about getting the mythic legions Frost Ogre to serve as a giant mammoth herder and someone recommended the Mcfarlane giant from the witcher. So I ended up picking one up for $15, which as a real steal even if the joints are pretty loose. He's a bit big for a 1/18 giant though since he's a good amount taller than the mammoth and it'll get more noticable when my Woolly Rhino gets here next month.
>>11904763He does look really cool
>>11904264That looks fucking sick
>>11904763I guess you could see it as the mammoths being cows for it and the rhino a pig or something
Okay, I'm now genuinely curious if playskool has reasonable looking old tripod cameras.
>>11907183Playmobil has/had one
>>11907778 Surprisingly pricey figure in leafland. there's also a sil you can get but I don't know anyone with a printer.
Got the Nomad, really happy with the figure.The BMW color scheme suits her.
>>11908186really nice!!
>>11894811Adding this Frontovik.He quickly became quite dear to me.Perhaps I will upload more of the shots I took outside. Experiments at night proved to be mixed due to longer exposure times.
>>11908710>>11909210Nice looking guy and shots. I've been considering this guy on Ali as he reminds me of a blue version of Doomguy.
>>11914328Those guys are 1/25 just fyi
Good stuff show by Boris this weekend

>>11914328Thanks, Joytoy pleasantly surprised me.You will have an easier time finding mechs and vehicles for him, due to the 1:25 scale.However, I am yet to buy any figures smaller than 1:18. The Ariadna guy and the Nomad girl are both 1:18. That's how I managed to find a random Burago Honda in the exact color scheme. The UNSC guy looks sick.I am currently eyeing red troops, because this guy reminds me of "Crusader No Remorse".
>>11914388
>>11914332oh hell. Dodged that bullet. I got one of their army builders last year. She's April's camera woman now. I get the whole "headless" point of the figures. but it would be nice if they sold packs of heads as well.

>>11914455Oh that's awesome. I love that April figure, I lost her camera and am pissed about it...
>>11914328Alternative 1:18 could be this guy, closest I've seen so far JT9909
>>11914458>>11914463>>11914465>>11914459These are great! Look slightly better than my Marauder guys, better joints
>>11914774>slightly better than my MarauderPGV is top tier and it looks like we're finally getting the butterfly joints on the males but the paint seems to be getting less attention as the line goes on. The thing MGR has me fiending for is the 'Nam era female in fatigues, especially ERTL. I also can't wait to make a Catwoman with all these Boris Ping bits. I also saw this thing being shown at WonderFest. There were also Evangelion characters and an Eva cockpit.
>>11914730 I can understand that. I have 2 April's and 1 camera. Although 3d printing is amazing and I find you can get a lot of patterns but this doesn't help without the printer. I currently want to get my grubby paws on a Plymobil STL for an old time camera. and a guy made also patterns of tomb accessories for both the 6 inch and 1/18 Lara Croft.
>>11914879 The Boris ping stuff is tempting. But am waiting for Dana from China Beach and Victor Charline.
>>11914879>'Nam era female in fatiguesI'd like Vietname females like KAT from Rambo the cartoon. Could be on either side.
>>11914328>>11914749aren't the new joytoys 1/25 scale?
I'm sorry, that >>11916515 was a very dumb thing to post.
>>11916620 it happens. also I made the size mistake in the first place.
>>11916620You aren't wrong tho.The new starcraft line will be mostly 1:25 from what I've seen.Also Battle of the Stars and Dark Source have a lot of 1:25 scale.In the end you just really gotta do a double check on most figures just to make sure.
>>11917056do you know how tall the 1/25 figures are in cm? No shop I've looked at says it and even on Joytoys own page they don't mention it.
>>11917473I'd assume about 7cm but i don't know for sure
