Yeah but comparing NECA to Figuarts is like comparing a Kia to a Masserati.

The NECA Godzillas are fine if you're like me and you're just going to display them in a standard pose. The MonsterArts obviously have far better articulation, durability, and accessories, but the paint apps are similar enough that I can't justify the extra cost. If I were to splurge on a MonsterArts, it would have to be one of the monsters that NECA doesn't make a version of.

End up like one of the dudes in the Gunpla thread with so many unbuilt kits they won't be able to finish them before they die I only started buying gunpla like two years ago and I feel like I have way more unfinished kits and kits I used for fodder than anything complete on my self right now. It's a serious problem.

Can we agree all toy lines are great so long as they are poseable and not statues like Funko or McFarland?

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:Does anyone have experience with these Bandai dragonball figure models? How do they look compared to figuarts? They're pretty good for its price and for models you buy yourself they do have a surprising amount of articulation. They don't scale properly with Figuarts though. This is the model version (left) of Broly compared to the Figuarts one (right) I own the SSJ4 ones and I'm pretty pleased with them

Whew, I thought maybe it was some sort of build your own gun replica nonsense and thought you'd all gone off your rockers.

Broly was specifically the model I was thinking about, since the Figuarts is really expensive. In that image the model looks pretty good actually.

Got the Deadpool wave figures I needed from work today. No interest in building Sasquatch so if anyone wants the pieces for X-23, Cable, and Domino they are your. Like ten bucks shipped for them I guess.

I got a Spider-Man 2099 (original costume) off eBay and it didn’t include the little webbing cape. Would anyone happen to have one to spare?

Had some luck today at Walmart and found most of the new Infinity War wave and the Walmart exclusive Thanos. Just need Taskmaster and Songbird. I'm guessing Taskmaster is going to be the difficulty one to track down. I can't get over this one. Not my photo.

Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:Broly was specifically the model I was thinking about, since the Figuarts is really expensive. In that image the model looks pretty good actually. Impressions all across the board for Broly's model kit are pretty favorable. Especially since Broly's size actually makes him scale pretty well with regular figuarts.

Local ThinkGeek broke street on the IW stuff or something. They let some dude buy all the Gauntlets and MLs and the local collectors are in an uproar.

Man, the new ML movie Black Panther is surprisingly gawky tall. Also the Chadwick Boseman head is too small for the body.
