Cure Echo this December, and Cure Beat in April.
Do you have a Dark Precure? If not, why not?
>>5282531
I'm ordering her next week actually. £33 on Amazon, I can't wait.
>>5282644
She does have a really great design, the heterochromia and winking makes it really. I wish more precure villains got releases.
I'm thinking of getting one of these little buzzing bastards but I want to see my options first. It must have a camera or a way to mount a camera, preferred would be customisability.
I also want to mount little remote controlled bb guns on one, but I'm not sure how that'd work.
Finally, it'd be nice if it had a flat top and/or a way to hook shit to the bottom. I reckon it'd be ace to fix on some lego (or god forbid mega blocks) shit as 'pilots', and maybe a jeep or something to the bottom (wouldn't it be ace if it could...

>>mounting a camera
tons of quads by syma and hubsan have 'em built in, but you definitely get what you pay for with the cameras.
>>mounting an airsoft
don't bother, you'd need at least a sixth channel to actuate the trigger/firing mechanism, it will add too much weight for what you're willing to spend, and you're an idiot
>>flat top
can't think of any that have a strictly speaking 'flat' top, but even the x8c in your...

I like the creativity of your thought process, but know that the carrying payload is almost nothing for most entry level drones. Sure you could mount some legos on them, I myself play a game with a friend of mine with our small quads where we each put a minifig on the top of them and try to knock the other one off of theirs first, but don't expect to add a ton of weight.
I love the Parrot Bebop, it's only 500 and the parts are reasonable to replace. They also sell it at Best Buy which means you can...

Will drone registration actually come to fruition? I thought that drones and quadcopters were deemed outside of the FAA's jurisdiction by a federal judge, does that not matter anymore?
I just made a pre-order of pic related. Do any of you guys have the other versions of this SRC? Considering this is same as the older versions, what do I need to expect from this guy?
Also this is my second SRC. My first one is Genesic Gaogaigar.
>>5277061
>Do any of you guys have the other versions of this SRC? Considering this is same as the older versions
There's only one other version of this guy, the one with the cape. The first SRC SKL bundled with the DVD is a completely different and smaller mold.
I also have the Final Count version on pre-order, didn't buy the one with the cape because I was waiting for news about a wings and eyeless head pack or version.
>>5277138
I didn't know the first one (bundled with the DVD) is smaller than the caped version. Does this mean the cape version and Final Count version is in scale with the SRC Mazinkaiser?
Sorry for the late reply.
>>5277061
what the fuck? couldn't they have done wingle or accessory pack? having two of the same figure rustles my jimmies
Can we discuss Lego clones and why they are slowly surpassing Lego itself in both quality and price?
I mean look at the build quality of this Oxford set.
shane Kreo was absoloute shit. not even megabutts can save star trek with all their fancy articulation
>>5276921
Kre-o is ass, but we'll always have godly korean clones of amazing quality.
i mean when was the last time lego made something like this?
Also ahah, holy shit, these guys actually made a historical set about on the korean war, featuring a sherman tank raping a bunch of korean villagers. They went as far as recreating historical pics of war atrocities on the fucking box.

Post the toy you want the most.
I always like these threads but I'm afraid of posting my rare wants in them and possibly having someone be interested in it, and creating more competition for myself in obtaining that thing.
I fucked up. I fucked up so bad not getting this for $90 when I had the chance.
Peanuts Movie Happy Meal toys are out now. This pic shows what order the toys come in.

My only regret is that 90% of /toy/ never experienced the euphoria of playing with Zbots as a teen, let alone knows what they even are.
MiniZ's were the best. The goddamn best. I still have a few, but sadly, lost some to time and moves. Glad you finally opened them, really wish that we still had articulated minis.
They're cute
>>5295564
The minis were cool and all, but the full sized Zbots were the shit. I actually have a fuckload of them and I have a few doubles I keep at work in my cubicle to this day just to fuck around with at break time lol.
Hermey doesn't like to make toys!
Well, what does he like to do? Does he have any training or skills outside of toy-making?

Is this a Greg thread? There don't seem to be enough random capital letters for it to be a Greg thread...
Barnes and noble has these half off. Which do buy?
None, they're fucking trash.
>>5294931
The Gimp and Winston Wolf both look like they have potential for setting up some funny photos.
Other than that, they look like trash. I wish ReAction would learn to make the style of the figures era-appropriate. The 'Kenner' look works perfectly for films like Big Trouble In Little China and Escape From New York because they're of that era. For a 90's film though, they should look more like Powers of the Force or something.
>>5294942
I want Playmates style ReAction figures, but even Playmates can't do paint apps on the level of their 90's stuff anymore.
Between TMNT, Toxic crusaders, Dick Tracy,a and a few more, Playmates had his cool, unique style; skewed, squat proportions. emphasis on gross details, bright colors, and a ton of sprue accessories.
Anyone have experience with Bandai's Frame Robo toyline? Cheap as shit little model kits that transform from robots to weapons that other figures in the series can wield. They look kinda cool and they're retailing for ¥400.

>>5294633
God I love that guy's videos. He churns them out at a great pace and they're fun to watch.
>>5294633
I built the red one. It's okay. the "transformation" is not something you want to do many times as it is basically taking the whole thing apart and putting it back in different ways. The weapon mode is nice but only use some parts of the robot.
As a cheap robot model, it is pretty good
I wish it utilizes the pellermodel/RG frame pre-built-in-the-runners technology because that craziness should be used more
>>5294648
Hmm, sound like they may be worth it at the pricepoint but I'm not really a fan of partsforming.
Man that Pellermodel is some nutty shit.
I'm a first year elementary school teacher and my school has this program where teachers can take a tote bag with a child's name and age, and fill it up with gifts. I took a tote for a 9 year old boy and have to figure out what to get. I want to choose a mix of useful things and toys, but what do you get a 9 year old without knowing them at all? What do 9 year olds want, aside from a game console?
I'm already getting a toothbrush and toothpaste, socks, and perhaps gloves and a hat with avengers or something? What about toys? I want to get him some cool...

Did you call his parents, and ask?
>>5293691
Do you know the child in question? You'd have better chance at making his holidays happy if you knew what he likes.
>>5293699
>>5293701
Unfortunately it's strictly anonymous. I asked the woman in charge if I could find out what he likes and she says no. So far I was thinking a small lego set, maybe a transformer? Action figures? No point in games if he may not have a console or DVDs if there's no tv. Some of these kids live in hotels.
I want to get a die-cast model F-15C for my dad for Christmas, with a stand. I have about 100bux to spend. Is there a particular company/model you'd recommend? I don't mind using hobby link japan, if that matters.
(Whoops, posted a Strike Eagle instead.)
>>5293101
Don't know shit about modern ones, but when I was young I had some great metal planes made by Ertl. A quick search shows a F-15C on ebay right now for $22.
>>5293101
did a quick search for ya.

So this exists. I can't say I'm not surprised, seeing as there's a disturbing amount of R34 of the Xenomorph.
I'm just disappointed with the fact that hyper-fantastical sexual fetishism has become so mainstream that things like this are now marketable.
Whatever happened to a good looking girl with nice tits? Why can't some people get off unless they have an ovapositor shoved down their throat to lay eggs in their stomach?
The Xeno is already a giant walking rapey penis with teeth and THIS is what seems odd to you?
Fuck, putting like 80% of a human body in there is like, actively toning the fetish shit down.
There are still plenty of hot girls with nice tits figures. Don't worry. That didn't die out.
As far as the figure....It looks alright, I guess. I don't like the head at all, for some reason.

>I'm just disappointed with the fact that hyper-fantastical sexual fetishism has become so mainstream that things like this are now marketable.
This isn't mainstream at all and sexy figurines have been marketable for a long, long time, mate.
>Whatever happened to a good looking girl with nice tits?
That's exactly what this is. A good looking girl with nice tits in a xeno costume. Does Halloween confuses the shit out of you?
I personally like it. I've always been a fan of monster girl designs so this might be the first Hot Toy I purchase since I dont give a fuck about Capeshit or Star Wars like most of the toy community. I like how the Facebook community thinks it's offensive and Giger would be rolling in his grave when Giger fucking loved this type of shit. Now only if OE would finally release ND3 they would look perfect together. We need more monstergirls.
Anyone ever try their hand at stop motion
Once or twice, it amazes me how things like ParaNorman exist.
>>5291987
Pretty much this. I swear, it would take less time and effort to go to art school and learn how to draw than to make a stop motion movie by myself.
>Ray Harryhausen worked almost completely alone on his stop motion sequences.
I can't even
