It seems Playmobil is teaming up with Funko to finally do licensed figures ala Lego.

Never thought I'd see them do this.
Great Scott!

Hey /toy/ I need your opinion. As you know I love deadliest catch but alas there aren't many toys out there. Do you think this is worth it? I love it but it's over $100 crabs to buy. Seems like a lot. Any help is appreciated.
Hey /toy/. I am really sorry to bump but just curious if anyone has experience with this toy. I really appreciate it, thanks!
>as you all know
Fuck you and fuck your shitty Cars toy.

I am sorry. Just wanted to see if anyone had opinion of Disney deadliest catch.
TARGET ON!

Is Generations Scourge a good toy, /tfg/? I own Cyclonus and wanna give him a buddy. His Generations design has really been growing on me, too. I like it way more than the space-boat thing from G1.
>>5403671
For the line he's average. I still have one in box since I forgot I had it.
>>5403671
Well he doesn't come with a targetmaster if that's what your after.
He does have a nifty transformation and good articulation.
Part of the art work for Fortress Maximus a.k.a. "Metrople with new duds" leaked, and it seems he really will have the Master Sword.
Anons, what is this? New line that's only 300 yen? Apiece? There's also a black version of the character and a black version of the cart. Then there are accessory packs similar to pose skeletons. Whatever this line is, talk about it here!
It's because they're gashapon.
>>5402411
How get?
>>5402416
Drop the coins into the slot and turn the knob.
What's the best ISS model one can get? The Daron 4D Vision International Space Station on amazon looks alright especially for the price but i'd rather get the best or close to it. There's also a revell one but it seems like it's somewhat outdated.
Saw the bandai EVA astronaut which looks alright. What are some other good space toys?
You knooeeee who needss a figma?
I knoe.

What kind of scenes do you create with your Star Wars toys?
I don't know if constable zuvio is a bad guy or not :/
>>5401740
He's a not appearing in this film kind of guy, I'll admit it! Where's JJ? Wait, you're not collecting the Figuarts? Holy shit, lets doxx this nerd! You're an lolcow now!
>>5401752
Anon, are you alright?
>>5401756
I am space opera's boy, but it's not about spaceships. It's a family soap opera, really.
What are some other lines of tiny articulated figures like Action-66?
The current Mega Blokes minifig is super articulated, Assault Kingdom is the best for tiny Gundams, and Minimates if you're into comics and such.

Pose Skeleton
So, I found my old digivice in a toy box and figured I would open to clean it. One of the cables going from the speaker to the board broke off so I need to reconnect it. I was just wondering of one of you cutie pies would be kind enough to open the back of a digivice (if you so happen to have one) and take a picture of the board with the cables so I know what the fuck I am doing. I tried looking up some pictures, but everything was pretty limited, and the only video I was able to find that shows the cables looks like complete grainy shit.
Any success fixing it, anon?
So who else collects these due to immense nostalgia from your Disney childhood? With the Lion King set recently released I think I've hit my peak of addiction, or at least hopefully.
>>5398054
holy shit these are cute as fuck
where can you buy them?
>>5398056
The best place to buy them is from Disney stores (including online) and the theme parks. They also sell them at Target and most recently JC Penny (why there, I have no clue), but they seem to vary in quality.
You can check out the character list here: http://www.tsumtsumcentral.com/PlushCharacterList.aspx
There's already a thread for these.
Right here.

>implying it's possible to be nostalgic when you're a manchild
>implying I had a "Disney childhood" rather than one of talking animals who fight masked villains to sell toys
>making an additional thread
Is this a Disney shill? Hmm. Odd crowd to market to.
What will it take for army men to be a quality toy again?
new molds
modern uniforms and fire arms.
articulation.
painted figures.
cool designs.
oh wait, we already have that, in multiple forms and styles
... but seriously, new molds and modern weapons.
HEY
STATUESHIT DO NOT BELONG
Merry Christmas tho ;)

Western statues are actually allowed, but these don't even fall under that description.
Happy New Year.
Your favorite toy comes to life one day. It has seen and remembers everything youve done around it or to it directly. What does this toy say or think of you?
>directly
"Why do you only take me out of the box to take pictures?"
If it was indirectly,
"Why do you masturbate every single day?"
>>5398341
pretty much
>>5398341
What is your favorite toy anyways, anon? You really should play with them more also.
So what do you all think? Pretty cool, and yes there's the backgrounds we can build, but do you think they're worth the price of admission?
With the first release bonus Saga might be worth it. And Seiya is at a fair enough price. That said, this line, though cool in concept, may not have the needed legs. The figures are fairly basic, though well done, especially for only 10cm. But then when you can get shodo vs or shodo neo figures at under 10 dollars each then suddenly these seem a little oddly priced. Not to mention the commitment bandai has to make. All 12 gold saints plus the 5 bronze is 17 releases. Then if they use exclusives suddenly they're hindering people from building larger constructs with the pieces......

Is there a place to even order this shit?
>>5389814
Actually, HLJ's opened up their orders, but Gemini doesn't even mention the first order bonus. I'm hesitant to order from them, given that they've had issues with first order bonuses in the past.
Anyone else hate being asked how much their purchases cost?
I used to live with 3 guys in an apartment, and whenever I got a new toy I would always get asked by at least one of them "how much did that cost?" And for some reason it bugs me. I have no idea what about it irks me. I'm also a tech enthusiast so the same questions come up there too, whenever I get a new device.
I've moved out of there and live with my girlfriend (who is supportive of my interests, thinks my collection is cool) now but I still occasionally run into the same issue...

I'm not saying this to be insulting, but you may actually have autism or aspbergers if that bothers you so much.
>>5397970
I dunno, I guess to clarify, what bothers me is when people criticize money spent on hobbies. Being asked how much you spent on your hobby when you are just excited about what you spent the money on is annoying.
For me, someone jumping straight to asking me about how much my possessions cost is weird and reduces things that make me happy into price tags sitting on a shelf.
>>5397970
autists don't have girlfriends or jobs and they certainly wouldn't care what normies think of their hobby
Why do people hate BBTS so much. They say their prices are ridiculous but from what I've researched they aren't at all. For example I was looking to buy the new figma link from GSC. The figure would cost about $42 with $17 shipping. From BBTS it's $47 and $5 shipping. BBTS is the cheaper option at least for me.
>inb4 troll thread
I guess if you only buy a single import meme figure from a popular franchise it's more useful to ship it with your Marvel Legends and Transformers junk, but I buy at least 10 import figures a month. Overall it's much more efficient for me to ship them direct from Japan.
Also charging more just o get a pristine box instead of lowering the cost for a damaged box is a terribly kike-y practice and I just won't support it.
>>5396135
never had a damaged box from them
also
>meme figure
>transformer junk
clever kek
figma Motoko Kusanagi
BBTS: $59.99 + ~$8 shipping (5-8 days, usually towards the latter and that's not putting it in the pile of loot or the fact that their shipment wont arrive until March)
AmiAmi: ￥4、460 + ~￥1500 (3-4 days EMS, ships within a few days of release in February)
So, $65 (at cheapest) a month late, or $50 less than a week after release. Seems obvious to me.
I'll still go with them for western stuff because of their reliability and at least fair prices, but for anything Japanese I wouldn't touch them.
