Hey /toy/, I recently got a Canti figure for a steal of $70. The catch is that the right arm ball joint is broken.
Any ideas on how to fix it. This thread could also serve for anyone in need of similar help.
>>5545392
Is the ball still in there?
>>5545468
Looks like it. Just doused in super glue from the previous owner.
Comparison shit.
>>5545505
Try to get rid of the super glue and then drill the joint out bit by bit. You'll need a replacement joint.
So, I know this line wasn't reviewed particularly well, but...
What are the odds that we get a doomguy?
None, because it'd be a Doom4 haloman if they did make one.
>>5545068
About the same as the chances we get a figure from one of the actually good Fallout games.
I think this line and the Fallout one sold pretty well, regardless of the shit articulation. We might get more of them, only thing is im not sure if thats a bad or a good thing...

The S shape is always good advice though. The basic idea is that straight lines tend to look stiff.

get the PS2 colors version if you can find it, the pastel colors are a little funny but it makes it stand out.
the Anime Colors OYW looks better in pictures but up close you realize the colors are pretty off, the inner frame is a green-grey while the weapons and backpack are in that ugly lightgrey-purple that Bandai should never use again Also the yellow and red are more of an orange hue; altogether i dont see how its close to "Anime Colors" at all.
best colors are...

That color mix is as they say, absolutely disgusting.
Covered all that on the revive mk ii with german grey.
I've recently been watching Yu-Gi-Oh again and now I want some representation in my collection. I now about the models in pic related and the Yami Yugi Figma coming out. What are some other good toys? Statueshit welcome if it's done well.

I remember I had the Ra model from that line. Wonder what happened to it, it looked pretty cool.
There are some upcoming Yugioh revoltechs too. See >>5499608
I gave one of these to a friend as a Birthday gifts years ago. Its pretty cool looking

What's even next that comes out? The new AvP wave I guess? I don't think I have anything to spend money on this month. It's kinda nice. Haha.

Starting to become kind of concerned that we haven't seen much of this guy, Whitesnake and the Tokyo Ghoul chick with the knives.
All of them seemed to be painted at least at one point.
someone at medicos should be fired. winter won fest was boring as shit, and we still don't even have prototype shots of anything from SBR, yet we get to see toyohisa?
Also we have Pucci with the excact same costume colour as Weather Report and Tsukiyama from TG has some of the ugliest joints and coloration of any figure in the sas line so far.
This is my favourite line, and last year they released Johnathan, which was a figure of great quality. The fluctuation in quality is worrying though, can't pre-order without fearing you're getting the cat in the bag.

We just saw them updated less than a month ago, come on.
Hello /toy/! I'm visiting Berlin in a couple of weeks and I plan to look for some vintage toys.
Mainly stuff from the 60's, 70's, 80's and some 90's.
Google gives me a fair pick but I would love to hear from locals and other visitors.
Help a friend out?
>TL;DR: Vintage toy shops in Berlin, Germany.
>>5538896
Here where I live there's only one, and they're fucking assholes. If you ever want to sell/trade they'll tell you your shit's worthless and deliberately rip you off. I had the owner try to tell me my original perfect-condition straight-arm Cobra Commander was only worth $5.
There used to be more, but as nerd culture shifted due to the leftist hijacking and takeover so did the rest of the comic shops, which now only deal with new inventory to retail.
>>5538986
Sounds like most of Europe then.
I will spend money, not trade anything, so that's a relief.
Can you name the store?

I'm afraid I'm going to buy a "brand new" sealed and having it not sealed OR even worse buying a counterfeit after being told it's not

It's about time the poor kid got some figure love. All we have at the moment are the unbelievably terrifying RAH figures.

Existing Figma is old, expensive, and based on the Rebuild design. I'd prefer one based on original series Teh Rei.
