Post toys being friends
Old photo. I coulda done better with Zwei's shoulders and hands.
And even older.
What have you all been buying this month?
Frog and balls.
Random assortments of Lego parts and 3rd party Combiner Wars add-on sets.
This month has been a good one.
Mezco Kroenen was something of a grail figure to me.
Not super rare or overly expensive but he typically goes for more than I'm willing to pay.
Figma Lady is something I've had on my want list since I got Crystal Bowie.
Satbatz has been here for a couple of weeks now.
Ninja Slayer arrived today at long last, 3 weeks is pushing it even for SAL.
And finally Neca 'Alcatraz' from Crysis 2, an impulse buy but holy shit I'm glad I bought him, what a great figure.
How are the Icons figures? They're dropping in price on Amazon.
>No Nightwing
Pretty shit

I love this line and I'm collecting every figure. Seriously.

It isn't Disney Comics Comics?
second chance preorders go up soon. anyone going in?
>>5601491
I already backed for like 5 figures, but I'm considering getting the Minotaur now too.
>>5601491
Do they have a newsletter?
I'd love to buy some but I always miss when they go up.
Doesn't help being in bongland.
I'm padding my wallet for the inevitable eBay excursion. I'm down with the mobs after the first 24 but I'm not counting on getting much.
Had a couple backers offer to buy some stuff for me during the pre-sale but all of them want the payment as "friends/family" through Paypal and fuck that.
Glad I got in on 1.5 since I missed the KS. Definitely not missing KS MK.II this fall.
Waiting, waiting, waiting for release dates edition.

So how tight are the Titanmaster connections on these guys? I don't want them falling off every time I pick them up but I don't want to rip the head off the tiny guys.
Well, just messed around with my menasor for the first time.
I hope Takara/Hasbro (kek) releases dedicated feet.
>>5604203
How are we supposto know that? They aren't out yet.
So I haven't purchased a Legends figure since ToyBiz was making then, and holy hell they've gotten awesome. I'm really digging Daredevil ans the AIM soldier. Where might a person acquire these at a reasonable price, or at all?
Also General Legends thread what is your favorite.
Also digging pizza spiderman

To reply to this from the previous thread because I'm a massive LLfag, only FOUR were actually normal releases. Not even the bigger half, and Honoka, the MC, was a web exclusive for both her releases. They did do a two-pack for Rin and Hanayo, and I think maybe they would have done better if Maki/Nico and Eli/Nozomi were treated as double packs as well, and if any were to be general releases it should at least be the three girls with the most screen time.
Bandai really...

The S shape is always good advice though. The basic idea is that straight lines tend to look stiff.
Do you have problems swapping part in your figures? check this little advice

Updated checklist of prototypes and planned releases
Have they hinted at when Guyver 3 and 2F are coming out?
>250mm
>70,000 yen
Why?
>>5592755
>Black Getter
Not even surprising.
>>5592755
Fucking Studio Halfeye
Getter toys in general are completely fucked. SRC Shin Getter is shit, the revoltechs have all doubled in price, and most everything else is +100 bucks, usually in the 300-1000$ range.
Also we didn't get any worthwhile Neo Getter or Getter Go toys aside from revoltech.
>>5592755
just get the revo :^)

Playing Blitzkrieg sure gives me a hankering to build something in German Grey.
Thing is, there's nothing too cheap except crappy old tamiya kits.
>>5576919
Its not the kit, its what you do with it that counts, but don't let that step in the way of your excuses.
Is anybody able to give me the tamiya equivalents of a few revell colours:
Sand matt 16 (sandy yellow)
Seegrun matt 48 (sea green)
ziegelrot matt 37 (reddish brown)
If any of you have a link or a pdf version of a conversion chart, that would also be really helpful.

That french text is pretty damn patronizing. "Oh no, the frogs won't know what 8 bit means, better make sure it says bitS!"

There's an amiibo right there, you blind shit.
Those of you just joining us, please read this guide. Please read it before asking questions as there is a chance it has already been answered there.
For those unfamiliar, "Plamo" is a shortened form of "plastic model." If it's made of plastic, someone can probably help you here.

First for getting funky on the flight deck.
>>5593513
What kits or add-ons come with pre-pose pointing fingers?
>>5593517
That is a damn good question.
I'm not sure.
Off the top of my head I think the HG Nobel comes with two peace sign hands that you could mod into a pointing finger.
The only other options I can think of would be any MG with separate fingers or any PG.
Previous Thread: >>5599760
We finally have confirmation of all seven of the original non-Horrorcon Headmasters. Which ones do you like the most from these Deluxes?
>>5600719
Hope Snapdragon gets a proper toy
Guess he could also be retooled as TR Grimlock
>>5600733
Considering that Apeface is getting released in Titan Masters wave 2, Snapdragon may only get a head release as well. I'm not a big Horrorcon fan, but it does seem to be a shame that there won't be a proper figure for the two of them for now.
Hasbro seems to acknowledge that people want new versions of them though, so they gave Apeface a TM vehicle that is pretty much a mini Apeface.
No really crazy about the colors except for Mindwipes, but then again I really don't like late G1 colors.Would be all over these as BW redecoes, though.
