I believe Busou Shinki is the cancer of toy. It was okay when there were occasional threads, but now they come up so frequent it's annoying. Threads about Busou Shinki, the war on neckbeard scalpers, Subjectanon, transformers movie/prime discussion with little mention of the toys, and Jin are way too frequent, and pushes aside threads about other important matters.
Yes Busou Shinki is a little bit of a better discussion because it revolves around a "toy". However, most threads end up looking the same involving random crappy art,...

The fact that there are still shinki threads so long after the line has died really speaks to the autism of the your average shinki owner.
I should really sell mine. I'd probably be able to get a lot off these idiots.

That looks comfy af. I want a tiny room for my toys. Can we have a diorama thread?
>>5355371
what's the point of posting stupid pasta like this?
When are we going to get more Cobra figures? Are Max Factory ever going to re-release these again (I mean come on, they re-release Link every year)? Have they announced the inevitable Blacksword Zero and Young Cobra figures yet? A man can dream isn't it?
>>5355180
>I mean come on, they re-release Link every year
Because Link sells like a motherfucker.
>>5355186
Nice chain mail detailing on this high quality figure release
>>5355189
I don't see what that has to do with the fact that Link sells consistently enough to justify frequent rereleases.
so I'm trying to create a Wizard set for my shelf
where they will all be standing around a boiling pot, with dark lighting. What are your suggested figures/characters?
currently own: dark magician, magician of black chaos, merlin

May I suggest you forget about setting up this cringeworthy display?

An important thing to let us know is how tall are the figures in particular. If you're working in 1/12, 6" or 15cm then you could also use the Marvel Legends figures of Doctor Strange, Brother Voodoo and Scarlett Witch.
Another option is Kamen Rider Wizard, of which I'd recommend his S.I.C. (pic related). There's also a Cu-poche of Dark Magician Girl and figuarts/figma of all sorts of witch and wizards characters too.
http://trendysgear.com/products/lolweaponsbox has anyone got theses? Know how big they are? I dont really care that they are LoL, but would be an awesome set to have if they are a good size.

Check all the chinese bootleg sites first I'd suggest. Like two or so years ago then I tried so search some cheap 1/12 weapons here, all the shit was over-designed fantasy swords. That WAS cheap, but I was not really interested. Alibabas, dealextremes, the like. Free shipping too.
>>5354933
I got some of the swordish keychains from aliexpress recently, as well as a few dota 2 weapons. They are an alright size for like six inch figures (Marvel legends). I bought them for the articulated icons like the fwoosh is bringing out next year.
I see a lot of Star Wars threads on here,
and then you got figma and other Japanese shit.
I just want to point something out,
As much as figuarts is fucking top, for me, it fucking pains me when American toys are made by the Japanese.
I prefer the hasblow shit just because I feel American with America.
Don't get me wrong, Figuarts is dope.
But Japanese should make Japanese stuff, and American make American.
Just my 2 Autisms.
they're all made in China so what's the difference?
>>5354819
but theyre doing a better job in general than american companies
i dont want to scarifice the availability of better quality goods just because of muh cuntree feels
this sounds like something a 15 year old would believe
should you not be on habbo instead?
>>5354819
>hasbro feels america
>MADE IN CHINA on every box
I sure love my "American" products
hey im thinking buying one of these drone , you think i can attach a small spy camera ?
http://bigboysawesometoys.com/project/worlds-smallest-quatcopter/
>>5354678
Probably not, but man is that cute.
>>5354678
>you think i can attach a small spy camera ?
If there is one thing I have learned, it's that asking this sort of question here GUARANTEES you are completely inept and incapable of doing things for yourself.
First of all, this is not a board for the discussion of drones. Every thread about Drones dies a sad, lonely death. Drone thread OPs usually get no actual advice, it's like they ask their questions in an echo chamber. So right there OP, you are already too stupid...

Why? They're making one with a camera built in:

Also holy shit these are tiny. I want one for my toys to play with.
Sup /toy/
Been a decade since I've bought any Legos or models. So thought I'd start back with bionicles.
So are these a good price and are they worth it? Any other recommendations?
Also have a bunch of unopened gunpla from when I was a kid.

Promptly kill yourself pls.

Not all of us can be as autistic as you, anon.
What's the best toy version of a speeder bike?
>>5352946
probably will be the figuarts when it drops.

I have the bandai 1/12 model kit. It's a really nice model with plenty of articulation.
>>5353020
Aren't the model kits 1/10?
Hi guys I was just wondering your thoughts on hero clix. I'm not a /toy/ elitist but I saw a bunch of these things at my local dollar store when I needed to pick up some gift wrap.
I think they are great to put around my desk at work and they look so derpy and bad up close sometimes that it makes me smile.
This entire set cost like 15 bucks which isn't bad and when a kid is in the office they enjoy messing around with them.
Anyway thoughts and pics of your collection of these unique tiny figures.
friendly reminder that you might be on the wrong board for that.
this board is more about figures and actual toys like legos; Hero clix are more sort of a board game or a "Tabletop" how the audience calls it.
so /tg/ might be your best hit for that matter. if i'm not mistaken they often have a general for hero clix as well.
have a wonderful day sir.
*and happy holidays.
Thanks stranger

No, it's Artoo Dimsum
I can't stop listening to this idiot, but if I hear him drone on about toybiz marvel legends costing $8 as opposed to their current price, I'm gonna scream.
So, this: http://www.actionfigureinsider.com/reality-check-action-figures-should-cost-more/
At least this guy has the honor of being unknown in the toy reviewing world.
>>5351824
this guy is definitely on the spectrum.

What is the best nono diebuster figure to get?
>>5351718
The only one that's an action figure.
>>5351718
Sentinel is generally good shit. their nono is no exception.
I have the GK made by I forget who, and it's cool, but not as good.
>>5351769
Actually sentinel didn't do a very good job on nono. The leg connections are often cracked right out of the box and her torso tends to be incorrectly glued together.
Still worth buying since there isn't really any other option.
I need the solution to this puzzle, and I don't find it anywhere... can someone help me ?

I know that keeping your figures out in the sunlight will cause discoloration, but do light bulbs? I worry that my figures will get discolored due to the type of light bulbs I use.
If it's not LED, it is.

>>5351375
So would these do the trick?
Incandescent lightbulbs are great and pretty much only cause discoloration if they're near enough to be heated by the lightbulb.
LEDs are even better and most don't get hot enough to discolor plastic.
>>5351379
yes, that works well, but i'd choose a lightbulb that offers blue or white light.
Most LED boxes will tell you how the light will appear with a graph. Most LEDs you find at retailers are going to be shitty "soft white" which has that ugly yellow look. 5000k+ are best, if you want...
