Its a 2 year old post, why do you care?
>>5351037
Yes, still haven't found anything to gift to mom.
I bought a bundle second-hand and it turns out half of the items are caked in dust.
What is the easiest way to mass clean the ones that don't have stickers? Is a dishwasher viable?
Get a can of compressed air, like for cleaning a keyboard. Or simple rag with warm water.
Goo-gone for the unwanted stickers.
And no, I wouldn't put your toys in the dishwasher.
>>5350929
I tried a rag and compressed air, but there are deep/narrow sockets and joints where the dust is too.
>>5351002
Old toothbrush dipped in a cleaner like Mean Green works wonders for narrow crevices and hard to access areas.

So, what should I use for hands on my Nuhvok-Va MOC? Fingers seem like they would be too big for the rest of him. Here's what I've been using for most of this MOC's life. I apologise in advance for shitty pictures.
>>5350234
This one has Onua Mata claws because I had a load laying around. It looks a bit closer to the original, which I like, but now he can't pick anything up.
I haven't collected toys since I was a kid with Star Wars toys.
New Star Wars is giving me the itch.
Where should I even begin? What brands are worthwhile? I know nothing about collecting.
>>5349882
Black series is okay, but better for armored and masked troopers. these'll be around 20$
SHF is better in every way, sans some small differences but have less of a selection and are mostly sold out.
these are 40-80, more if they're sold out with no re-issue
There's also sideshow and hottoys figures, which are incredible but the bodies on sideshow are pretty bad and they cost about 200-400 depending on the scale .
I dunno man. With all the hype, companies are trying to put out as much shitty stuff they can produce while the scalpers are trying to buy out all the shitty stuff they can buy. So currently, consumers have to buy all the shitty stuff at shitty prices.
So unless you have uncontrollable impulses, maybe it's best to wait a while for the craze to die down.
Jesus people.. Get it together. You usually have a shitfit when this happens. What makes Star Wars okay?

When the fuck is Hot Toys announcing TFA Han?
>>5349525
Never, he's dead, so who cares?
>>5349527
I don't know, friend. If Phasma is still alive, Han could be too. Or did an official source confirm he died?
is there an available pack of various R2 droids models?
Disneyland has some droid factory sets. Or you can build your own from random pieces. I was there last week and made an Imperial R5 and a Captain Rex colored R7.
What is the best Tie Fighter model?
>>5349172
Hot Toys
Bandai kit.

Two questions:
1: How much will I regret not buying this?
2: Is this really designed by THE Kazumi Fujita? I know he's credited to this show, but I'd assumed he was responsible for random motw stuff
>>5349115
the src was on sale on hlj for the fall sale. if its still up on hlj it will be on sale the next sale like %100 sure. that is over priced
>>5349122
its $33 on amazon. dont bother buying it from that scalper.
>>5349125
>46$ CAD
That is quite the difference. See, I thought this would be a decent deal considering the crazy extra charges that come from importing to Canada. Thanks for the heads up!
Pic related is on Ebay for pretty cheap, but it's from Hong Kong and I'm worried it might be a bootleg. How often are Hot Toys bootlegs?
>>5348223
HT itself is based out of HK, so it's 100% authentic
Where can I find this exact figure? I really want a 3.75" Kylo Ren to put on my shelf
Walmart
Target
Toys R Us
And other fine retailers.
>>5347976
Get the Walmart version, more joints, cooler looking.
>>5347976
Don't fucking bother. Wait a few moths for the greedy fucks currently selling shit figures to "double-dip" by releasing the better-articulated version that'll probably even have a cloth cloak.

Hello, /toy/.
I'm thinking of purchasing S.H. Figuarts | Tamashii Nations. Only issue is - i don't know how to tell weather they're fake or not. I know already "don't order from China" but, even U.S./Japan eBay/Amazon can ship fakes. Any suggestions? Thanks
>>5347697
What figures are you planning on getting? Not all figures even have bootleg versions to begin with.
If they have a generic stock photo and no actual pics of an in-hand box, request photos. It's not completely helpful, but i've been able to spot bootlegs by doing this.
>>5347697
myfigurecollection.net
search the figure you want
see if it has a bootleg
So, I havent been on this board before, but I'm assuming you guys can help. I need help trying to find a replacement part for my RC Heli. The tail rotor broke after a crash, and I can't seem to find an exact or at least a similar part for it
>>5347448
SENT :)
>>5347448
Can't see the part with you in the background. Could you take a picture of it lying on a table?
>>5347448
why don't you start with the make and model senpai?
also good luck getting help. they only talk about robots and chinese cartoon toys here.
Now, as i am getting closer to the next year, i am trying to understand.. is the XD series really performs better for the extra 5-10 bucks?
And will it even matter after you mod the gun.
As buying used ones seems to be quite cheap, but no used XD`s for now.
>>5347085
XD's just have packaging that tries to justify that most darts go under the expected range of the original Elite, but they're literally the same releases as previous otherwise.
If you're modding them, it shouldn't matter.
>>5347090
Well.. other than that ,did you have any hand on experience on some models?
As i know they love to "tell a range" maybe there is still something.
got my first foam plastic shooty things a week ago, halo boomco replica/lookalikes apparently the darts aren't compatible with nerf
should i keep buying boomco or is nerf worth trying?
