Just wondering, but why do so many anons on this board collect action figures or toys with joints? I understand posing and being able to manipulate a scaled copy of a character people enjoy, but what draws the majority here to discuss it more?

Because there's really nothing to talk about statues except for paint and sculpt. And then they just sit there for you to ogle on. With articulation usually there's an art of compromise, and then there will be some botched articulation like for example this guy's wrist
Statues are not really toy anyway, because by definition you need to be able to "play" with your toy.

They would not be action figures without joints, senpai...
>>5646507
is this an action figure?
>>5646510
Not if a figure is "a representation of a human or animal form in drawing or sculpture"
>>5646510
it's certainly a toy

Because there isn't a better alternative to /toy/. You can find dedicated forums for specific lines, but nowhere seems to have the broad range of /toy/.
Also, another thing to keep in mind there's a rule specifically against Japanese figurines, and a lot of spergerkings have taken that as a complete ban on static figures entirely. The result is almost everyone who comes here to talk about them gets run off like some sort of leper.

More like lupus. There's no need to paladin for anybody. Your very righteous opinion is irrelevant and adds to the problem. Only ignoring works.
