How often do you find these sort of vandalism at the toy stores you tend to visit?.
I found this headless taskmaster on my near mall, as you can see the plastic was removed or cutted and they just took the head.
Be honest, have you ever done it?
>>5689016
>cutted
Shit this guy just removed the middleman and took the head straight up. Props.
Common practice is to buy the figure and return it with swapped parts/ or sometimes even a swapped figure.
And yes, I do it. Only with BAF parts though. Never a full figure.
>>5689016
Fuck shoplifters, especially people who steal stupid shit like toys. They think they're "sticking it to the man" or just being edgy little faggots, but really it only hurts the store and it's employees because they're too fucking cheap to buy a children's toy.
>>5689016
even shoplifters don't want that shitty udon head.
So I got a box of Power Rangers stuff from a friend in Asia and I know 99% of the Sentai/Toku related stuff in it, but this one throws me off (OP picture)
Help me /toy/ your my only hope
I was going to say it's something from Ronin Warriors but after a closer inspection I an mistaken.
My first thought was something like this.
>>5687561
It "transforms" like an old Transformers pretender robot if you see the rear shot how the shoulders fold back.
Has pegs for what could be clip on armor.
This thing is really confusing
For those unfamiliar, "Plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model." If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here.

Posted in old thread by mistake. How hard would something like this be to pull off?
>>5685974
If you use the AC Gaim Orange as the base and build the Ball around it, I'd say easier than the other way around.
>using stock stickers
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
So does anyone else throw out the plastic shell of the packaging while flattening the boxes they like and keeping them for storage?
Do you worry about the resale value of the toy, or do you know that people don't mind the figure been loose if you can supply the original box art and all the accessories without loss or damage through shipping?
I throw all the plastic out myself but it does feel weird doing it even if i have no intention of selling the figure on.
>or do you know that people don't mind the figure been loose if you can supply the original box art
You can't know something that is false...
Try selling one of the figures in the OP image without a clam shell. Not sure how much you may get, but since half of those figures go for like a fucking 1000 dollars, you'll be missing out on at least hundreds of dollars for sure.
I'd personally prefer to keep my clam shells.
>>5682650
None of those figures go for that much money, aside from the SDCC Goku. And he seems to be dropping in price.
The rest of them sell for around $100~$200. And that's even brand new.
I never resell so I throw all packaging away, but if you were thinking of reselling you'd be best to hold on to the shell otherwise you might as well sell it as a loose figure.

Does anybody here have the Picco Neemo Nipako? I've been trying to decide if I actually want to get it for months.
>>5680734
Yep, she was the first release to use the new body too.
Does anyone over the age of 10 give a damn about playmobil?
Yes.
I do.
>>5680520
Really? I honestly don't care about it but I did get a couple of the blindbags (I wanted the god damned robot alright?) and the figures are pretty okay. Seems unfair that it's compared to Lego though when they're nothing alike.
>>5680513
I never liked them even when I was a kid.
They seemed like an oversized shittier version of Lego.
this show is lame. he is looking over a batman begins rc car and a plastic blow up toy that looks like its going to shed lead paint into his mouth.
>>5690874
Fakest shit ever.
Nobody finds a minty loose Bakshii LoTR figure in the bottom of a moldy box filled with unrecognizable plastic garbage in some blown out looking shack.
The best though was when the one guy kicked him out for lowballing him on carded Thundercats figures. That segment lasted like five minutes.
>>5690933
>lowballing
that's another thing he is like buying some crusty plastic space helmet for $500 and then immediately flips it for $1100 in the same episode. That was probably fake and scripted but he literally ripped off some old man for $600
>>5690952
I love the whole 'but I have to make 90% profit on everything' thing. That might work for pawn shops but to let this freak and his camera crew stomp all over your personal space and try that is something else altogether.
Fuck May Mayhem. Did you get Groovy?

Some really bad timing, this last week of May.
Reposting from the last thread. August pre-order for Groove on Entertainment Earth.

What will be the next scramble? Computeon?
What did he mean by this?
>>5689151
He means the new GB film killed the franchise.

Yes, women are actually more abusive than men
The word cuck sure is applicable in these situations.

I'm pretty serious when I say that Storm Beast and Quake are garbage tier.
Storm beast at least has a really cool function, but Quake's is so bad that it affects the sets posing . The arm has so poor friction it just flails around and the beast keeps falling over if what the sets owner tells is anything to go by.
>>5684237
I'm not saying all of them were shitposts, Quake beast does look like crap I agree. As for Storm it's messy back that's just not appealing to me.
So I ordered myself one of these fwoosh ninjas.. Anyone else pre-order one? How long do you think before they start shipping? What are your thoughts on them?
They probably won't be shipping til about July or September at the latest.
That being said, good 1/12 ninjas are long overdue and I am very excited.
>>5683264
They said they're feeling good about them being ready by the summer. They also seem confident with the quality. I'm really excited for these. Between these and Mythic Legions and the Beasts of the Mesozoic and some of the others, there are a lot of really nice Kickstarter figures.
>>5683264
This was the only one I ordered as well, cause I like blue more than black/red/white. Plus that exclusive head with the hair. Hope these come out good. I really wish they would've put butterfly joints on the shoulders, would've helped immensely with sword poses. Also, the way they did the torso articulation was a very odd choice.
you cant play with those
>>5674691
Wait, is that actually Ashley wood?
...I thought he was a girl.
>>5674705
it'd be more forgivable if he was.
>>5674705
I thought he was asian.

Looks like Char's Z'Gok is confirmed to not be the only new RD on display.
Hopefully it will be more than just the GM.
Some quickie comparison pics between the 1/144 Super HCM Pro Zaku II and the ANIME RD.
>>5665170
Sorry for the late response, anon! My Zaku is pretty tight overall, but I definitely know what you're talking about with the soft-click in the knee joint. I can feel two small bumps in the upper part of each knee's double-joint when moving it. Doesn't really affect the articulation though, I can move the knee without any real limitations, there's just that bump when I move the joint over them.
Post all the rare looking non human female toy creatures: the sexy ones and the weird ugly too, let's see how much exotic females we can find
pic related is Octavia (He-Man)
alien female from star wars, sadly the toy look cheap
I have this one and i like the paint, you can see her veins, creepy but sexy in a weird way... is this thing considered necrophilia?
>>5668379
You can post some toys too
>The guy I bought it from online told me it was limited edition authentic shit.
