Can anyone explain to me why they stopped doing BotCon and JoeCon is on it's last couple?
>>5779200
Funpub negotiated for the Joe licence for 2 more years while Hasbro get's it's plans together.
Despite complaints against Funpub, both warranted and not, it would seem that the main reason Hasbro wants a convention with all of their properties under one convention. In short Hasbro wants in on the convention bucks.
>>5779336
Yep, and watching the bronies/SJWs under the same roof with the Botcon goers is going to be hilarious.
How is the Metamorforce Dancouga? Specifically the articulation and the build quality? I've been considering it for a while, and may finally jump the gun, but I'm still not sure. I love the design, and Obari is one of my favorite mecha artists, but the price seems steep compared to other , similar things.
Please don't get it. Many reports from Toysdaily have said it has tons of QC issues, especially cracking shoulders, even when kept in the box for months.
It is as bad as the VF-171 grunt version.

Seriously? any link to this? I haven't seen much about any issues on english boards or communities

How's the Qubeley collection going, anon?
Best suit.

Here's mine, missing MG Mk I.
Considering HCM Pro, Zeonography, and Assault Kingdom.

A Qubeley in it's Qubeleys, mad as hell.

New RD Qubeley I got for my birthday.
So, realtalk, minimal meming if possible.
How bad is plasticizer leakage? I never even heard the term until a few years back and have never had it happen myself. I never grew out of toys so still have stuff from my childhood and have bought figures continuously through my teens and adult life. I never heard it being a big issue on any forums I used to frequent, and up until a few years ago didn't seem to be a thing on /toy/.
Nowadays though it seems to be the ultimate boogieman for collectors here, hoping to find ways to prevent it, either by cleaning it off...

Let's make it simple :
Most toys will "never" suffer from this unless you live in a shitty climate (the plastic won't last forever of course but chances are it'll get old enough to basically break, crumble and shit before any leakage happens, think of 100 years +).
Some toys (like figmas using soft plastic and Revoltechs) use bad plastic and/or paint chemicals leading to leakage to happen on 100% of the figures concerned in the "short term". Even if you live in a good...

Pretty much /thread. Depends on your climate and the content of the plastic in that particular toy. Could never be a problem, could happen next summer.
The good news is even if it happens, you can wash it off. Just be prepared to do so every summer once it starts.
If you buy unopened toys older than about 7 years on the aftermarket, then you should be prepared to wash off the plasticizer after you open them.
Is the Assault Kingdom dead with the coming of the Universal Unit line?
Who cares? They're just overpriced gasha shit anyway. Yeah they're articulated as hell for their size but does anyone really bother with them?
>>5773342
Yes, because they're tiny and take up little space atop all of the aforementioned details.
>>5773342
>Yeah they're articulated as hell for their size
They are not all that articulated to begin with.
hcm pro does it better and is smaller.
Nxedge does it better

Soon I'll have my expensive, tiny, grey plastic sex-robot. What a time to be alive.
Are polynian compatible with little armory hands and rifles?
Robotraps with guns are my fetish

I found an Aquaman head while I was out and about today, and discovered that the Mighty Mini heads are perfectly scaled for Mega Bloks minis. Only problem is the neck hole isn't large enough, but a little work to scoop it out won't hurt much.
I have a used one of these
Does anyone know how much it would cost?
It's not broken, just has the usual dust and scratches, and I can still repackage it into the box easily.
Gee, it's too bad that there's no place on the web that's a huge secondary market. Ya knoe, one where you can browse thru sold items to get a gauge on how much a collectible item would sell.
But that's just pure science fiction.

>I have a used one
>How much would it cost?
Looks to me like it wouldn't cost you anything since you already have it. Now fuck off you bleeding cuntstain.
>>5780282
I looked but they're all in *NEW* condition
Is this plastic magic trick worth $140 to you?
old thread >>5778093
>>5779841
No. But the bootleg is worth $20
>>5779841
Depends. He looks cool as fuck, but I have 0 attachment to him.
MP Jazz and Hound WHEN? Or MP Dinobot and Tarantulas (fuck MP Barney, it's gonna look like shit) if it must be a BW character.
Anyone got pics of Blurr with Siren's head on the body?
Thinking about getting two Blurrs and repurposing him as Cybertron vehicle form for Siren.....
These were shown at this year's ToyFair, but when exactly are they supposed to come out? The currently airing season has got me hyped and I need new Battlebots toys, dammit!
I thought it was supposed to come out in August?
>>5779766
August or September I think.
>>5779791
So glad Witchdoctor got wrecked tonight. I don't know why, but I've always hated that bot for some reason, and the team behind it are all so... punchable.
What is the appeal of these things?
Very wide range of characters + easily available + cheap for the most part

Seems you meme'd yourself.
Which one? Lets review the damage.
But who memes the memers?
Sanji
Mewtwo
Furfaggotario

Shame about Sanji's knee joints. It wouldn't be so bad if his character didn't revolve around kicking.
