/o/ didn't take to kindly to trying to make one there.
I'm not even sure if it belongs here, really; I didn't see an RC thread. This is more of a test to see if it works here; if so, I'll organize a beginner's pastebin and all that.
Getting cold out; I really need to get my rb5 back in action.

Oh shit a reply.
Liking the LED display; don't see many front-motored cars, though. What is that?
Just picked up an ecx torment yesterday and have been running it non stop and bashing around the local skatepark. Just taped some glow sticks to it and a headlamp to run it tonight. No lights at the park so this'll have to do.

They're pretty good in my experience so far. All are worth owning, but they're not perfect. I've got UW Superion, UW Menasor, and CW Defensor.
Known problems:
Menasor's the weakest overall in the hips department. He's also kind of top heavy, or he feels like it in my experience, which, combined with the weaker hips, can make posing him a bit of a chore. He might just flop over if you don't balance him out well enough.
Defensor's in the middle. He has some hip problems, but they're not as bad as Menasor. His chest plate though, is his worst feature. It doesn't really stay tabbed in too well. Can be solved by maybe making the tabbing more secure via joint tightening methods like superglue or futureshine, maybe. Or by just holding the chest plate when you move his arms.
Superion is just the most solid. Guys a rock. Not completely perfect, but easily the best.
You'll probably be best off looking for UW Superion if you plan on getting him though, people are scalping the shit out of the CW version's limb bots.
Neca Kratos fucking when
Thought it was coming next month? Either way, pumped af
Oh neat I can pose him surrounded by the few lewd figures I have.
ask the neca thread
HEX by Crystal-Jade Vaughan is finally shipping! Who's getting one of these?
people are going to be angry at you for liking what they don't like
this looks pretty cool, ill admit it could you post the price?
>>5288735
It was 160$
I bought one. I'LL BUY ANYTHING pumpkin related
Posted on /co/. Looks like this one's not the one getting made, though.
TFW2005 says that there will be a Transformers:Micronauts crossover with some similar looking characters.
any bets its just microman reissues seeing how all nostalgia is tied into a comic book that no one bothers remembering the toyline it was promoting?
>>5288299
why did you make a new thread?

Thought more relevant to /toy/ than /co/. More microfags here.

Its cool they went with the classic Milestone version, but everyone wants the pre Nu52 version.

What do you wear, latex body suits?
We need to start having Shopkins threads.
I appreciate the style and the sometimes pun names but they just don't appeal to me.
OP here, just wanted to share my personal experiences with these fellas.
>be in 11th grade
>some kid in my class who we shall call carpenter loves shopkins
>at first I didn't really get why he liked them, I was just now hearing about them
>one day, carpenter gets a shopkin that he already had in his collection
>he gives it to me
>reluctantly, I take it because I'm nice to him
>Google shopkins when I get home from school to find out which one he gave me, since I knew they were selling like beanie babies
>it's cheery churro, and alternate colors one no less
>I now have newfound mutual respect for carpenter
I didn't want to reveal any names, because as far as I know he might accidentally stumble upon this thread somehow, and given the fact that he's in special Ed, that not might be the best thing to have happened. I have seven shopkins now, almost all of them are rare except for one ultra and one common

If you want to join post a picture of the kit(s) you plan on building for it.
Hoping for Tamiya to make a 1/32 P-38.
You'd think being a big company, Airfix could at least commission a decent modeller and get some photos for their website.
I mean are they even trying? Did they get Eve the secretary to build one on her night off? The Airfix tanks I built as a thirteen year old look way better than this.
[spoiler]they have nicely built plane models tho[spoiler]
Actual haul thread.
What've you wankers gotten the last few months?

We had one of these threads a while ago and a lot of people (myself included) gained a lot from be able to ask questions of more knowledgable /p/hotographers and get advice on our photography.
Some basic links:

Perfect timing for this thread. Any camera recommendations? I'm looking to get one black Friday or cyber Monday at the latest. Just want something cheap and digital, primarily indoors. As long as it's quality is comparable to a smart phone's camera, I'm fine.
What do anons use to diffuse? Is greaseproof paper too thick?
Of you use your phone for photos, investing in a stand can make a world of difference.
Any word on release date for these guys? All I've seen is November.
>>5269352
They might be selling them right now at Blizzcon.

Is biginjap superior to nippon-yasan?
>>5291221
They have less stuff, shitty interface and less options but they're not filthy thieves like NY.
For you.
>>5291226
I've never ordered from NY, but have a friend that swears by them.
But I've seen a lot of stuff on there that I'd want to get.
What'd they do that makes them thieves?
CW Brawl possibly confirmed as kinda of shitty edition

CW Leader Starscream, or alternatively, buy a few cheaper Decepticon figures?
I don't have a Starscream yet at all, and the only cheap one is the Armada version with the non-traditional color scheme. The others are expensive as fuck to the point if I am gonna get one, I might as well get the CW Leader.
Or I could buy a team of mismatched Seekers for about the same price as CW Starscream.
This guy would make a pretty good Impactor with a few remolds.
>>5288572
I'm waiting for my TRU to have him. he looks awesome.
