Does anyone know anything about this particular pooh plush? Year of manufacture, country of manufacture, etc.
I think it's from the early 90s but not entirely sure. Any info or links to info would help
why?
>>5414845
why not?
Best way to find info on it is to look for a tag on the Pooh that tells you who made it and when.
Even then stuffed animals tend not to be collected and preserved by their mostly young owners so finding something 20 years old is going to be damn near impossible.
was there ever a Dr. Theopolis toy or replica made from the buck rogers tv series
I got so drunk last night I went out and purchased a Harry, a Marv, and a Jason Vorhees.
Yeah they're NECA, but now I have to return them all because I'm broke.
What's the worst that you've done for a piece of plastic?
The worst thing I have done for a toy was stealing. When I was a kid my family and I went to the beach. There was this little girl there who had these Muppet toys and I really liked her Kermit the frog toy. I made friends with her and we played with her toys but while she wasn't looking I buried it. I help her look for it but she had to go home. I then went to the spot and claimed my treasure.

>implying that 99.9999% of /toy/ members aren't thieves.
Hey guys, I thought I'd ask some /toy/ experts about this. I'd been wondering who makes the most realistic and flexible action figures on the market. I could use one to help me figure out poses for drawing, and it'll be good to have a 3d model instead of working from photos. And I don't exactly have the funds to hire a live model every day.
I'm really looking for flexibility and affordability. I don't need it to be a blank mannequin, necessarily. Any character would do. But good muscle definition would be a plus.
I have considered the Armature 9 figures, which look pretty fantastic and have a lot of different parts. It's got a poseable thumb which is rad as hell. The only real problem is that it's 190 bucks and doesn't really have any muscle detail anywhere. It's a fantastic skeleton though.

get what you have in the op.
The Figuarts blanks are nice but figma is releasing a 2.0 of their archetype blanks pretty soon.
Might be able to find the reissues of the first version for a decent price somewhere.
Anyone on here have experience with the mcfarlane akira figures? I don't know anything really about mcfarlane other then they have pretty shitty figures. I want akira figures but the only other options are the RAH ones which are stupid as fuck expensive.
>>5408135
I meant shitty articulation.
They're products of their time, so the sculpts will look less crisp compared to modern figures or statues, but for the $20-30 price range, you're getting a decent looking representation of the character. Kaneda's bike is probably the one that has aged the best out of all of them, but the statues themselves are pretty decent even by today's standards. I'd say go for it if you don't mind a static figure.

yep, what this guy said.
new to /toy/, do you guys like speed cubing?
no, we don't like toys that require skill to use. /toy/ should really just be changed to /action figures/

Forum isn't nearly as salty about this last drop as I hoped.
It was a good drop though.

There's one guy in the blog comments bitching. He seems to think Matt sell most of his stock ahead of time to the Glyos Illuminati, which means nothing's there for him when he wanders in a hour after the drop starts.

Shit, it's not impossible to get stuff other than the store went down for a few mins

hi /toy/
What is your best all-around action figure? What would you recommend? My criteria are as follows:
>durable - not going to break by accident
>value - affordable or you get a lot for your money
>great articulation
>great sculpt
>can stand and pose easily
>bonus: i own a cat so ideally it won't have a lot of loose parts or small accessories, in case the cat knocks it down

Classics Prime. Although I don't know if it's affordable right now.
Shodo Vs is pretty sweet right now. They're VERY posable and by virtue of their size/lightness, aren't too dainty, unless you a) have ham hands or b) you have a kid who likes to throw toys at walls. They get a lot of points for being cheap, especially if you split a case with someone.
OR, a Figuarts or Figma off Mandy. Provided you don't care about the source material and just want a good toy, you can get something...

Maybe an SAS? When they're on point, they're some of the best things you can buy for 4000JPY or less. The young Joseph Joestar SAS is pretty much universally beloved by any who have bought it.
