Can we have a thread for exoskeleton figs?
I'm looking for some suggestions since I want to try a couple of those things.

I don't think there are too many. I can name the new FAG addon...

...The hoihoi kit made from combining two of the motorcycles...

...And of course, the Alien power loader.
>buy MOC figure on eBay
>seller ships it in a box way too small, bending card just to fit it in
This should warrant at least an automatic neutral feedback, if not negative. There is no excuse for sellers to do that. They practically damaged it to fit it in the box.

>Buy figure from BST
>Guy ships it loose in an envelope.
This is why I don't buy from either /toy/ or facebook BSTs much anymore. It's been the case in about 80% of my purchases.
Get a damn box, people.
>eBay marked item as shipped
>seller just printed postage label through eBay
>seller doesn't give package to post office for another 3-5 days.
If a seller can only send one or two days a week, I understand, but that should be stated up front in item descriptions. 90% of sellers do not state their handling times.
>item averages $10-$15 shipped
>half the sellers who have that item insist on keeping their prices...

It really really does.
I'm searching for this particular figure from The Marvel Legends line. It is Marvel Legends Infinite Series Civil War BLACK PANTHER. My area rarely ever gets figures, and I know this figure hasn't hit the mass market yet, but I know it'll be a while until my area see it, if it all. Im willing to pay over retail for him, but nowhere near the prices hes going for on eBay, or what some other online retailers are charging. If you have him, please let me know. Thanks!

Chill out and wait a few weeks for the hype train to stop, then you'll be able to find him for a lot cheaper, unless you feel like blowing all that extra money on a ML
Ive got one mah nigha but hes oob and he's been hotglued, still interested?
Yep, you'll eventually find one out in the wild if you're just patient. Only worry if you haven't found one in a month, since it's unlikely they'll do another wave.
Who else is getting Angela, the figma with one of the finest booty?

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
