A thread for Barbie dolls, Disney dolls, any fashion dolls that aren't Monster High/Ever After High or BJD.
previous thread >>5585021
The Disney Store has a sale on the Classic Dolls, $9 each for today only. They are more than likely trying to clear them out to make way for this year's batch of Classic dolls.
http://www.disneystore.com/classic-dolls-for-9/mn/1011101/
Will they finally give Pocahontas and Mulan a genuine makeover? Or will we be stuck with those same dolls forever...
Chiffon Ball Gown Barbie (last doll in the Black & White collection) goes on sale next week. Platinum label, Fan Club exclusive.
>>5663606
I hope they make a Beast doll with a head that sits properly while they're at it.
Keeping the accessories in the box of the figure > putting them all together in a craft box
>>5770470
I do both. Imports get their boxes saved, domestics get the accessories stored elsewhere en masse. Figuring out which accessories belong to a cheap superhero toy is a lot easier than trying to figure out which of the 9 trillion identical flesh tone hands belong to one specific import import.
>>5770470
I buy way too much shit to keep all the boxes. That shit goes in the trash unless I think I might sell it later on
>>5770512
Shit, shitiously? Shit, that shit's shit, dude.
I've never seen a RAH thread so here it is!
I'm ordering my first RAH soon and I'm wondering how they hold up. Is the cloth material flexable? Is posing fun? What RAH figures do you have? Which ones do you want? Post your collection!
Pic related. Hopefully ordering this guy soon.
Funny coincidence that you make this thread as I'm bidding on my first RAH. Gyro looks nice as fuck, I'd love to buy him and some of the other JoJo characters, especially Rohan. Same goes for MGS3 Big Boss as well as Guts, Guts looks phenomenal. The one I'm looking at buying is from Lupin III, here's to hoping I win the bid
>>5769558
They're okay. More range of articulation than Some HT figures. Quality and accessories are near HT. I don't like RAH being inconsistent with their scale. They are not truely 1:6 scale.
All I've got. All I need, baby.
i found these Warhammer WFB and 40k metal miniatures when i dig through some of my family's old stuff,probably belong to one of my uncles.
it took me some time to identify which characters or units they really are.
i found out Gamesworkshop stopped making these many years ago.is there any chance some people still want to pay to collect these?
You're bettter off asking /tg/
They look pretty new too
total list:vindicare assassin,kasrkin squad,dark angel veterans,DA grand master Azrael,Ezekiel DA Grand Master of Librarians,eldar farseer with spear,space marine captain with storm bolter and power sword,Obliterators
>>5768990
/tg/ crossposter here.
You ll be able to sell them, easier with the scifi stuff, maybe having an harder time with fantasy ones.
How much you ll be to do, it is a bit harder to predict.
Sup fellow manchildren. /k/ here. What's a good resource for finding 1:6 scale guns, uniforms, gear and(if possible) vehicles? I gave away a box of old GI Joe shit when I was 14 and I greatly regret my decision.
Dolls are shit.
Army build a giant army of plastic men to fight another giant army of plastic men, instead of stylizing and dressing them up.
Also, doing something like this can be cheaper than getting good quality dolls.
>>5768945
Check big lots. They have 12 inch knock offs but also have gear sets for them as well. There are a few places online that deal with 12 inch joe parts specifically.

Google led me there.
>>5769008
Thanks m8. That is a shit ton of stuff to look through
Have we had a thread about this? Looks great
>>5768316
I don't know anything about Gintama, but I've been impressed by every OP VAH I've purchased so far. So it'll probably be pretty good.
>>5768316
I pre-ordered him. Gintoki is top tier. I'll get Toshi as well.
The VAH line is nice, minus a few issues here or there. I have all the One Piece ones except Mihawk, and I'm considering him. Just don't like his character.
>>5768500
>Mihawk
Get him, he's worth it. He has the range of motion in the hips that I wish Luffy had. You can almost touch his knee to his sternum.
Titans Return figures are trickling in to local retailers, check your local store and maybe you'll be lucky!
Old Thread - >>5766520
I got Blaster, Powermaster Optimus, Rewind, Sentinel Prime, and Blurr coming next week.
Pretty excited.
>>5768187
nice man, where'd you order from?
I'll wait for Takara's Blurr but I can't wait to find Chromedome and Hardhead

we finally there
>>5767541
I'll wait for the superior Figuarts instead of that bootleg crap
>same gummy hands as Krang that will warp over time
>those hips
>those 2009 figuarts ankles
>that cross legged pose
>$129.99
yeah no
I will say that I do like that he comes with each of the turtles' weapons and the wired cape is a nice touch. Didn't know the helmet could come off, either.
>>5767541
This look exactly like what playmates would have done to classics shredder, going by bebop and rocksteady. Over designed and looks nothing like classic shredder.
>The knees and elbows have full range despite being on single joints
>get figure
>all is well
>seller included a friendly note
Makes me feel all fuzzy.
>fully articulated fingers
>perfect transformation
The $19 I threw on the garbage for this shit feels like a fortune
>>5767059
What were you expecting? It's a giant headed chibi cat with matchstick limbs. It stands there, looks cute, and does some rudimentary posing. I really am interested in what you thought you were getting.
>>5767070
Idk, I was expecting a more quality feel to it. It feels so disposable
First impulse purchase: Tomoko nendoroid, I liked the show and all but only got it because I thought the faceplates were hilarious and would be fun to mess around with, turned out I didn't really give a fuck about swapping parts that much. Ended up selling her for more than I got her so it wasn't that bad
Also bought a few accessories like chairs and teacups, and tiny swords because I thought they'd be fun to mess around with too, but the same happened and I ended up not caring.
Basically never buy a figure for its accessories.
What are some good sites for 1/6 scale stuff? Preferably heads and other loose parts.
Primarily eBay. You might luck out with Monkey Depot or Cotswold but they tend to have less stuff.
>>5766700
Yeah, I just placed an order with Monkey Depot. I'm just trying to avoid dealing with stuff from china off of ebay, that's the only thing.
>>5767053
I bought basically everything for my custom 1/6 figures off of eBay from Chinese sellers, never had any problems
Are there any okay looking fake nendoroids out there?
>>5765649
No.

Even originals have their QC issues as of late, don't forget with the growth of their currency and how they forget to reduce the price of their items. I don't see why not.
So I'm looking for toys to buy to play with since I'm a man child. The Halo 3 McFarlane ones are just too shotty on quality it seems so I gave up on those. Looking for dragon ball ones on amazon and all the ones that have joints and shit are $40+ were they always this expensive? I can't believe they could have been that expensive as a kid. Am I just looking in the wrong place?
Try lurking for a few hours, read some threads, use your brain. It's not hard. You'll learn.
>>5765475
The $40+ are probably the Figuarts, which are 6-ish inch figures with a lot of articulation. The older releases came with a lot of accessories, and the newer ones still come with a fair deal of stuff (extra heads, extra hands, extra faces, sometimes other parts like folded arms, effect parts, etc)
The one you posted are more like, 4-inch ones that are usually more like, $10-ish each. If they're asking $40 for those figures, that's a HUGE ripoff, as they originally sold for about $55-$60 for a 6-figure case.
>>5765475
yeah the picture you posted is for a cheap smaller figure. you can even find it at gothtopic for like 12$. But generally any import figures go for 40$+
So Anon, where do you keep your figures spare parts (heads, hands, accessories, etc)? I'm thinking about collecting.
In their boxes, which I keep in my closet
>>5764935
Zip Lock Bags and the faces are in dime bags to prevent face damage. I have a very cheap but presentable file cabinet I got from Ikea beside my detolfs where I keep all my acessories.
>>5764935
Picked up some of these at walmart and they work tremendously.
Preparation edition!
You know what holiday is coming up, right? That's right, Talk Like a Pirate day is September 19th! Get to readyin' landlubbers! Ye've a month or two!
