I wouldn't much worry- the previous CW exclusives got scalped but I can't tell you how many times I've seen loose Superions or Menasors in BSTs with those guys for really cheap prices for the set. Crap, someone had Menasor complete for $80 shipped last week.
>>5689352
I'm gonna get one at TFCon.
>>5689357
That's the weird thing isn't it? Hard to find the dude, but people will clear out the whole team.

Plenty of shit to check out. What was your favorite reveal?
Oh God this is incredible
Ok, im impressed. What is this line?
even you aren't that stupid, peon.
I hope that they don't focus solely on the Attitude Era wrestlers, I need: the Road Warriors, Macho Man, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Doink the clown, Mean Gene, Iron Sheik, etc etc
>>5681775
Is it figma or figuarts? I know both make figs of real people
What are some figures you'd kill for a resupply of? Keep it plausible.
>>5681181
I don't think I can think of anything that I'd kill for, but I would really enjoy:
Several of the dbz figuarts
KAMEN RIDER KNIGHT
SHF War machine/MK 7
Maybe even regular bikini figma sonico for silly headswaps.
>>5681199
>MK 7
SHF never made one to begin with.
Can we talk about some less conventional toys? Ie not figures, but stuff like these:
These are...well they go under a number of names (zen magnets, bucky balls) but they're basically small neodymium magnet spheres. I like them a lot. I've had a fist sized collection of them for years and I still pull them out to kill time.
>>5680253
Unfortunately they're apparently in a legal battle because some shit kids ate them and died or something. Finding more of them is a challenge.
I've also got something called a "Snaak" in the mail. It looks like a similar fun thing for idly messing around.
>>5680256
This better not be another retarded American child. We can't even get Kinder eggs here in the US because mouthbreathers don't watch their fucking inbred crotch spawn and some little turd natural selection'd himself with one.
This is a Japanese vintage vinyl toy (1960's - 1980's) and modern retro style vinyl toy thread.
Discuss what you like to see in old toys or are planning on buying, what the toys depict from what movie/series, and where to purchase these things.
Vintage vinyl is all the old kaiju toys like Godzilla, Kamen Rider, Mirror Man, Ultraman, Gamera, Go Nagi's Devilman and ect., old tokustatsu in general made in Japan from when the toys were made for kids after movies and such.
modern retro vinyl are things that reproduce old characters or create new characters...

Heres a group photo out there.
These are some examples.
Is /toy/ in general not into retro vintage?
>>5679220
I find modern sofubi more appealing than that collection. I want to get into these, but can't really justify it atm. I like super7's rose vampire.
/toy/ is not into retro vinyl
>muh articulation
>muh sculpt
>>5679231
Thanks for the feed back and post.
Maybe I should move this thread to /jp/?
Yeah, there is a huge wave of artists going into sofubi. When it comes to making art and being able to reap a profit from it creating your own sofubi vinyl toys are going to be the best way to go.
Personally I don't like the clunky guys that don't move. They should have at least 1 - 3 moving limbs. Im going to try to work on my own art and work with a studio/factory in making my own.
Any sofubi artists you follow...

FUCKING PREORDERED
It was so hard to find a good Megaman.exe figure. The US ones were shit and the old Japanese ones were either expensive or hard to find, and I heard they broke easily.
Now hopefully we'll get other characters in the EXE series. I want Bass and Protoman. Also for those of you who don't care about the Megaman Battle Network games, there's a 4 Inch Nel classic Megaman figure too.

I have a big one, it's kinda weird since I had it since no was little, if you want

WAT
DO
Overwatch toys when?
After spending a few hours in the beta, I really find myself wanting toys now.
With all the alternate color choices and then skins, it seems like it'd be really easy to market if the game stays popular besides the prerelease hype.
nope
nope
There's a really good figure of Pharah out already. It's called "Figma Samus"
Looks like it attaches to something.
>>5687820
isn't it a first generation bayblade?
>>5687820
TMNT related. It's the lid to this Ooze canister which came with Michelangelo's Sewer Exploration Belt, a role-playing toy with a bunch of accessories on it.
Said toy.
Latest news: Scalpers, what they are, how they work, and how do they sleep at night?
Where the fuck are all the Groove's going? It can't possibly be collectors, just scalpers right?
Furthermore, Optimus Prime: "What the fuck, this isn't my matrix."
>>5687296
Do we have any plantformer figures? I'm not aware of any, not even 3rd party. I'd love some though.
>>5687300
I can't even think of any dollar store oddity that turns into a plant.
>>5687300
The closest would be Saberback, who has a disguise mode of a plant emerging from a Dinosaur carcass. Takara also wanted to do a triffid Transformer for Beast War's 10h anniversary, but plans fell through.
99.9% of toys, including the super articulated import version of Darth Vader can't hold a sword two handed like pic related. Why is that?
because holding a lightsaber with two hands is literally retarded.
name one advantage you'd have wielding it two handed?
>>5687167
When your one handed swing clash with a two handed swing from your enemy, assuming equal body mass he'll have more momentum
>>5687164
...did you not know the Mafex existed or something?

How do you reapply stickers and decals and undo yellowing plastic?
>>5684730
you can't, welcome to the horrible realization nothing lasts forever.
Your only real hope is starting fresh with reprolabels.
>>5684768
Picture was just an example, reprolabels doesn't have what I need.
>I can't wait to show you my toys
As someone who is more than willing to buy toys just because they're wearing cool shoes, that Harley is as good as got. Can't wait.
If they make the whole team, I might be tempted. The movie will make me decide whether I want these or not. The designs alone aren't that exciting.
Harley is an instant buy, that Joker continues to disappoint.
/toy/, Open request hour. Does any one know if there's a decent 6'' + size figure of Cyclops from this style? There's a marvel select figure, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for. i'm looking for more of the bright blue tights with the yellow chest strap, as seen in the pic related. Anyone know of any figure/toy fitting this? I looked around, but surprisingly, I can't find shit...
I don't think so - I collect mainly Select scale and it's pretty much impossible to find anything. Best you could do is maybe do a custom
of the Select one, or hope some time down the line they have a new one like I am.
>>5676146
The Bay has this one for about 95 bucks.
>>5676171
Sort of sucks. I love the Select line, but their Cyclops was a mistake..
