Rhyno posted:If you know me from the Transformers thread, you know about me and knockoffs. So imagine my surprise when I found out that some Classics figures had been KO'd. I already own a legit Faker but when this popped up I decided to pull the trigger and check it out. At $150, the legit wasn't out of my grasp but for $35 I wanted to see if this would do the job. I think that's anti he-man, not faker. He's the EVIL he-man who is going to take over all the universes by killing their he-man and absorbing their castle greyskull energy and something something ruler of the cosmos. Read something about it a few months back. Some new comic series? Also goddamn that wolverine is perfection.

It is anti he-man, I read the comic and that's totally him 100%. Faker is blue. Or has his face half torn off, not black.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. There's KOs of Anti Eternia HeMan and Faker. I own the legit Faker so I just picked this one up.

The Wolverine box should really be a clamshell somehow so you can keep the bed setup.

The whole thing probably just slides out of the other end of the box. I think the bedroom is a separate piece from the outer box.

I preordered a friend of Goku because I liked her outfit https://p-bandai.com/us/item/N2580457001001. The Bandai site was crashing as I tried to order it and it didn't actually get to the complete page but she's in my purchase history now. So, I think it worked?

It'll be available for preorder for a month or more. No need to preorder the second it goes live.

That’s why I’m glad I didn’t start with Figuarts. I’d want 18, but then I’d need 17.

Open Marriage Night posted:That’s why I’m glad I didn’t start with Figuarts. I’d want 18, but then I’d need 17. Yep. That was me 2 years ago. Bought Krillin when he wasn't at insane prices. Then decided I needed 18 to go with him. Then of course, that means I need 17. And at that point, may as well get 16 and Cell...I did end up selling a bunch of them afterward, but at one point I basically had the whole collection. I still have a full Detolf for just DB Figuarts, though. I haven't been too excited in a lot of their recent releases, so I've been able to focus on collecting other stuff (Star Wars). Looking at their most recent releases, I've skipped nearly all of them: I skipped great ape Vegeta, Chichi, the motorcycle, Jiren, Zamasu, Vegetto, Super Saiyan 4 Goku, Raditz, all of the Ginyu Force, Hit, Jiren, Cooler, another Goku Black...Skipping these cyborgs too since I have last year's versions of them which I like a lot more. But I can't wait for the new Tenshinhan+Chaozu, Bulma, and Lunch!

I won’t be able to resist a Ultra Instinct Goku if I run into one in the wild. Gotenks would be hard to resist too. I’m happy with living vicariously through you guys. I’d be buried in Gokus, Godzilla’s, and Luke Skywalkers.

Not gonna lie, it's taking a lot not to buy force ghost godzilla to go in with my hologram Vader, hologram iron man, and ai Tony stark. Hopped onto a Witcher figure today, and I'm trying to talk myself out of a Mrs Adler figure from rdr2 cause I had no idea she was gonna exist.

I still have my Ghost of Chuck E Cheese figure somewhere. Wizard made a big deal about him. Wonder what he’s worth.

A couple months back someone had mentioned a site that occasionally had discounts on HotToys figures. I think it had a really generic name like purchaseforeignfigures.com or something but now I can't seem to find it. If anyone knows what I'm talking about and can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. My bitchin Punisher War Machine needs a battle friend.

Yeah I think that was me who originally posted it, I can vouch for it being legit and I’ve purchased a few figures from them. Pretty good reputation within the 1/6 community. Not everything is discounted though and some of the more sought after oop figures have markup.

The Toysbuyingagent guy is Timcent, a famous Ebay source for HK releases. Completely legit: https://www.ebay.com/usr/timcent88 It's a bit cheaper on the website since they're cutting out ebay fees.

I've been dealing with getting game consoles and things this year so I've gotten extremely used to 'order instantly or you don't get it'. Is that the same for the Comic Con exclusive figures available later this week? I like red Goku.

Absolutely not, lol. The con-exclusives must be purchased tomorrow night or you might not be able to get them. They're opening an additional sale on Friday as well, but I'm pretty sure all of them will sell out tomorrow night.

Let's see if my luck holds out for another thing. Red Goku is a power level in between blue Goku and silver Goku?

Shiroc posted:That's the world I'm familiar with. Let's see if my luck holds out for another thing. Red comes before blue, which comes before silver. It's introduced in the 2013 movie "Battle of Gods" which is genuinely really, really good. The best Dragon Ball film until the 2018 Broly movie. Hell, it might actually be better than Broly since the story is actually really good. Broly is good mostly just for its animation.

Nanigans posted:Red comes before blue, which comes before silver. Not to derail further, but I totally agree that Battle of Gods is a better movie, and by far the best. The new Broly movie redeems the character a bit, but is not as good as Battle of the Gods, slightly better than Ressurection F though in my opinion.

Having apparently very little restraint, I thought to myself after picking up a few Power Rangers monsters that having the OG MMPR team would be neat. I was able to get Green, White, Black and Blue for retail. The other 3 are pretty spendy, at least according to eBay. Of you’ve got a Red, Pink or Yellow you’d like to get rid of, let me know.

Holy poo poo I bought my Red Ranger for like $10 on Amazon clearance last year and now he’s ~$80-$90 used. I had no idea.

I cannot in good faith support the LC Rangers Not only are they not in scale with their own monsters, they're painfully inconsistent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdHVhPdbLG0 This video goes into it really, really well. If you don't care about the finer details, go wild but for me I just could not stand looking at them if they're this hosed up. Especially how they turbo hosed the Green Ranger- I still don't know HOW they did that

Burkion posted:I cannot in good faith support the LC Rangers I understand his nitpicks and that's a bummer for hardcore fans. Personally I don't have a strong investment in them so I couldn't have pointed out any of the issues he did. Green is the only one I have in hand and I did wonder where the diamonds were on his chest, but it doesn't bother me since they're covered up mostly anyway.
