I didn't get the amiibo. I would want to pose him. That just isn't enough for me.

>>1028

holy shit yes

How much did those set you back?

>>1047

I doubt McDonald's would let them license their dankest meme

>>1013

>It would be easier to wordfilter

How so?

Go look in the archives and tell me how you'd keep somebody like Greg or Peon from posting.

What words would you filter?

Drossel

3A

Space

Opera

Hasbro

Sucks

Kill

Fuck

Love

Like

Figure

Culture

Shit

Mock

Cool

Aswell

Troll

One

Guy

That's just a random selection of words from posts by Greg, Peon, and Andrew. Now you tell me how filtering any of them will stop the problem of their shitposting. All of those words are fairly common, and used by pretty much everyone. Filtering them does nothing but make it difficult for your average person to post.

Want to start a Drossel thread? Oops, too bad, word verboten, try again.

Want to post your latest grip about Hasbro and how the QC sucks? oh no. Can't use Hasbro or sucks. They're filtered.

However, your IP got banned because you were a shitposting ass? Hey, guess what. You don't get to post anymore!. You change it, or get a new one and start shitposting again? You get another ban. Which is fine. You'll eventually run out of IP addresses and you'll be shit out of luck.

You encourage the continued shitposting by doing it "ironically" or by "playing along" then you're just as bad as the person doing the original shitposting, and you get the same treatment.

And mods can tell who's who anyway. They actually see IP's. They know when somebody's resetting their router to evade a ban. They know where somebody is posting from.

New anon here. Will do my part to make /toy/ happen.

whats our demonym btw? /tg/ is fa/tg/uys. /co/ is /co/mrades, /k/ are streloc/k/s etc

I've usually seen /toy/ soldier been used, but there's not too many words that has "toy" in them, even less that are actual nouns. it's a lot easier when you only have 1 or 2 letters to work with. there's toyon, a type of shrub on the Pacific Coast of the US. Actually, /toy/ons doesn't sound too bad.

Jin hasn't been seen that frequently anymore, although halfchan's janitor is his friend and issues harsh bans to anyone who even slightly insults him. I think Jin's gotten burned out, he's never been a good troll, he's lazy and bad at it, and everyone knows when he's doing shit because even anonymous he only talks about the same old shit. Even /pol/ hates his guts and he's practically one of them. That said, he is a legit racist and troublemaker that's been banned from many toy forums and he's got only one known friend. Fwoosh busted him buying his own customs on eBay- then there's the fact you never see people bragging about owning his stuff, HIGHLY suspect. That many buyers blowing big bucks on his stuff and zero collectors bragging to show off? Come on…

There's also the fact he filed Paypal claims against several BST sellers to get free stuff, then went on a pro-Nazi rant with his trip when people refused to do business with him.

Andrew/Tibbers is potentially a scammer, but it was never proven. TJOmega made up a deal with him hoping to get /toy/ sympathy because /toy/ hates him. It's mostly whiners crying when his name is mentioned because he triggered them.

Greg was innocent at first, morons just flipped out over his fingerless gloves because mootchan is sensitive. Then he went all CWC, kept making death threats, and was thrown in a mental hospital for physically assaulting his own mother, so he kind of ended up being human trash.

mootchan /toy/ is full of crybabies though that whine over nothing, enforcing the notion that adults who buy toys are big babies. In all honesty this board would be better off without 99% of them over here.

well for starters don't use garbage like pacific rim for an op post in a sticky

Is that Snoop Yoda?

Please, share more of your wisdom oh wise puppet of bootleg glory.

>From a quick Glance at TFU it might be just what you need. Keep in mind it only looks at figures.

From what I've seen, so does Unicron. As for TFArchive, I've used it for downloading tech specs, but all they have are the ones from the Original Era and the Beast Era.

So if I want to account for G1 characters (like Arcee) who didn't get a toy of themselves until many years after their debut, I could just look at the disambiguation page category on the TFWiki. Though there are two cons I can think of. One is that some of those pages are either about concepts ('Til All Are One) or non-cybertronian characters. The other issue is that the disambig category doesn't account for characters with just two incarnations. But that could be remedied by process of elimination.

What do you think?

Alright, here's a question. We know the basic lineup of the Thirteen Primes in the Aligned continuity, but in the rest of the multiverse, the spots of Alpha Trion, Amalgamous Prime, Quintus Prime and Optimus Prime get filled out by Logos Prime, Solomus, Epitemus and the Last Autobot.

On one hand, I don’t like the idea of Optimus being a member of the Thirteen Primes like he is in the Aligned continuity. But on the other hand, I’d rather have Solomus and Epitemus stick with being part of the Guiding Hand as opposed to them having membership overlap between the two groups.

So my question for all of you is this. What would your ideal Thirteen Primes incarnation be like?

>>995

Fuck aligned.

> 3. The writers completely forgot about the two silhouettes in that comic panel and won’t plan on touching up upon that subject anytime soon.

Thats not entirely true since Hasbro likes to pull shenanigans.

If you go by IDW the order is Nova, Nominus, Sentinel, Zeta, and Optimus (Keep in mind these are all primes since the first civil war).Optimus though was actually chosen by the matrix. Nova was chosen by Alpha Trion who is the last of the original 13… Or at least the last active. The original 13 primes were killed or fled Cybertron during the first civil war.

> So can any of you anons who read the comics shed some light on the leaders of the Thirteen Tribes and the Prime lineage?

Thus far we know what you know. Nexus knew the enigma of combination, Onyx knew how to make headmasters.

You really want me to spoil the comics for you?

Thus far:

Onyx Prime fled after Galvatron (who is a scion of the fallen) killed Nexus Prime and Blackrock is actually some sorta part of Onyx Prime

This is all kinda jumbled but yeah…

>hear all these horror stories about NECA

>buy the red genocide xenomorph

>no joint stuck or warped parts

>more articulation than the revo and monsterarts xenos

>better sculpt and paintjob

Either I got extremely lucky or they have improved and most QC complaints are due to their lack of quality in older series/waves.

I got the Halo:CE Anniversary Chief. I liked the look and it's the only one with that design. But holy shit.

I mean there's 'articulation limited by sculpt' and then there's this. 28 points of articulation my ass.

>head up/down is a negligible amount

>barely moves at the shoulders

>elbows move ~45 degrees

>knees about 30 degrees

>clicky joints on ankle but knees are loose and floppy

>all joints hard to turn if they get flipped around the wrong way

>limbs don't seem to be removable

>why even have an ab crunch when it barely moves

>Halo 3 rifle

>holds the piece in front of the trigger with his thumb because no trigger finger

>have to force him to hold his gun because elbows can't bend

>tips over super easily

I mean holy shit all I can say is at least he looks cool.

>>1008

Honestly, I'd argue that the Rhino wave has some worthwhile things in it too, but you're not wrong. I want to complete the Hulkbuster, but I can't. Most of the wave just sucks.

That's the name of the game, though. I don't mind most reuse since comic heroes usually do just have the same body with different paint jobs but sometimes it can be inexcusable.

The only waves worth completing are the Hobgoblin wave, as you said, and the Rhino wave in my opinion. Next year is looking better in concept but execution can make or break it.

Care to elaborate Anon?

You've piqued my interest.

>>959

Taking into account how far up it was, it didn't came out THAT bad.

It's good enough. Best to get them while you can still find them easily

> tfw never got generations Cyclonus

Was there ever an Ideon? I don't want one but it'd be cool to see.

I don't watch many super robots, but I do own Gaogaigar. It's a fucking amazing fig, and faithful to the show

>>321

It's true, that's part of the reason I'm here too. That's such a petty little bitch move that it was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I wasn't sure about leaving halfchan until I found out even mentioning 8chan is a bannable offense if you even manage to get it through.

As far as me, though,

21, Midwestern US, just getting started in the /toy/ world. Gonna get me some shinkis next.

>>232

OP, i would suggest to avoid posting shit like age country Occupation

i collect whatever catch my fancy

I am here cause its the freaking toy board

>>943

>in weapons development

>likes mecha

When is the military getting Gundam then?

Well Soldier, don't keep us in suspense

You have more leaks?

At most 4chan is only worth lurking these days.

Stuff on 4chan is being 404'ed for me left and right. Are they DMCAing everything or is this server shit?

The only iron men that you'll find that fit your criteria are marvel select/legends. Foreign toy makers are only doing movie suits. However if your willing to spend $200 I would REALLY recommend sen-ti-nel's re:edit line, which has great articulation and sculpting along with led lights for his eyes and reactor. I can post shitty cellphone pictures if you want OP.

Sentinel Re:Edit

Sentinel Armorize

Can't promise you the former will be under $150, but well worth it nonetheless. Like a half-size Hot Toys figure, but based on the comic armours.

>no frames arms

WHERE IS SHE AMAZON

>>834

Does the heads included have blush on them too or just eyes?

>>876

Amazon cancelled my order. I ordered a new one from Hastings and got it yesterday.
