An interesting situation is unfolding. What do you think about the McFarlane Elite edition line? Does it look like a good portent or a bad one for people who follow toys and how the toy market is responding to high domestic pricing?

At first with Doomguy and Lilith it looked like the line's conception was to be extreme low production run and high prices for an attempt at a return to the "glory days" of McFarlane staction figures when his figures looked good and had an impressive amount of painted detail.

But once the Persona 3 figure got revealed, and even more so after the Fallout one, a bait and switch seemed to occur. The quality, paint and detail has nosedived so far that it seems like it's just $60 DC Multiverse or a $60 McFarlane anime figure.

Even worse for McFarlane Toys, it seems like even if these are limited quantities to lower risk, they are not selling out (barring the madness on Doomguy because he's, well, Doomguy and the best looking of them). Leading to the possibility McFarlane Toys may go the way of Super 7 with online retailers being flush with stock of a bunch of figures they can't sell at anything but a loss. This would not make retailers happy.

What do you think will happen with this line? Will collectors end up embracing it eventually, will it be hit or miss, or will it crash and burn?

>>11484884 (OP)
Too early to say how this will all work out, but charging import prices for domestics pretty much never goes over well. If the character's popular enough or there's few enough options for them, some people will buy anyway. But like you mentioned, if they'd all been on the level of Doom Slayer and Lilith, it'd be one thing. The P3 protagonist looks TERRIBLE with a price comparable to the figma, eliminating any real reason to buy it. Lucy looks okay, but like she should be half the price and Dogmeat being a statue for that cost is a slap in the face.

>>11484884 (OP)
>a bait and switch seemed to occur
This happens all the time. A new line is launched with the premise of either being "high end" or "affordable" at a specific price point, and then immediately after the first couple of releases either the quality gets cut or the prices get raised because they can't just keep things stable, the line must always go up.

>>11484884 (OP)
Gonna probably regret it, but I'm going to preorder the T60 power armor figure. Fallout action figures are so fucking rare it's not even funny. We either have the dogshit 1:12 funko T45, the 5 poa 1:18 mega-merges that are now overpriced on the 2nd market, or 1:6 zeroA figures which costs more than 500 usd for 1 toy I just hope the figure is actually posable and playable instead of a statue with moveable joints. 7 inches shouldn't be a big issue as power armor is a foot taller than a human male anyways.

>>11484986
I don't know how you feel about model kits, but Good Smile Company is doing the armor in their Plamatea line. Just about everything should be on an appropriately-colored sprue, so you won't need to paint it if you dont want to.

Most these aside from Lilith (and maybe Doom Slayer) are the same figures that would be $25-30 in his other lines (DC, MK, Spawn), but just with a jacked up $60 price tag for no reason.

This is the beginning of Todd scrambling to keep profits up IMO. He just lost his cash cow in the DC license and he has no other prominent lines that are carried by most major retailers in any numbers like the DC product was. Their profits are going to nosedive so this feels like shameless price hikes to try to soften the multi million dollar blow McFarlane is going to see once they have no more DC sales.

>>11484884 (OP)
Clearly Lilith is the loss leader in the first series, what the fuck is up with lucy coming with barely anything?
I'm not feeling it from Mcfarlane anymore. i was willing to put up with their lack of paint and sculpt reuse for the 25-30 price point, but at double, cmon, indie companies like 4 hoursmen put out way better paint and accessories for the 30-45 price point.

>>11485042
it looks like it is going to backfire heavily unless he is doing made to order or something that closes after a specific period.

Mcfarlane is trying to avoid left over stock aggressively on his DC line right now, even shorting Batman figures like Year One and obvious in demand ones like Cyborg Superman, which should be sure sellers. most of his DC stuff sells out in hours he makes so little. but then he puts out these for $60 and they're still up? if i were him i would be making even less of these than the DC figures. $60 is only for a few guys on ebay, not for the average figure collector.

Todd seems to want to copy companies that cater to high end collectors but fails to understand you can only charge high prices if your product is actually high end in some way. These are still $20 retail toys, some extra paint and accessories can't change that he is still making shit for walmart.

A mediocre mind once said something to the effect of "better sculpting doesn't cost more." But if he is right, why are sculpts so soft these days? Look at Dogmeat here. They could've made him higher "resolution" and less of a soft sculpt. But they didn't. It really does cost more doesn't it?

>>11485020
Looks great! Problem is I dunno the price, size, and when it'll come in 2026. Mcfartlane's power armor figure at least will have an estimated date. Maybe I'll get both?

>>11485208
The sculpt isn’t soft there’s just zero fucking paint

>>11485217
Here's a largely single colored segment of a Four Horsemen animal figure. The sculpt looks far more detailed than >>11485208

>>11485197
>if i were him i would be making even less of these than the DC figures
What else does he have? Spawn line doesn't sell. It's may be over, right? Mortal Kombat has like 6 or less figures per year, maybe that many anime ones too. He doesn't have any other licenses. McFarlane is pretty fucked for the short term after the DC license is up. They've got the Avatar movie figs this fall, but those have never sold well and that's not a long running line like DC was. Stores order those and a couple months later, stop.

>>11485208
>It really does cost more doesn't it?
If you're tooling a static dog figure, it'll cost the same no matter how detailed that sculpt is. Paint is a different story, but there is no excuse for such a shitty sculpt here. This is just McF putting out absolutely trash product as usual.

>>11485217
You need glasses

>>11485234
Here's my theory: a more detailed sculpt takes longer for the sculptor to produce. If you go on commission and pay a sculptor peanuts, you will get a shit sculpt because he isn't going to spend a lot of time on it to maximize his earnings. If you pay the sculptor hourly, then you will want the sculptor to do it in the minimum amount of time, thus have less time for detail.

Either way, more detail costs more money, which leads to softer sculpts to cheap out.

Only time it doesn't is when you get digital files from a movie studio directly for a movie sculpt like Godzilla figures. Then someone just has to go over them and convert them and make the joint cuts/engineering.

>>11485232
McFarlane Toys is a small company. It doesn't need to shit out hundreds of figures a year. It only does that now due to the DC license costing so much. McFarlane himself has said there are good times and bad times in toy production and he stays small to weather the bad. He just will give the Chinese factories and freelance sculptors less money for less figures. He will go back to how McFarlane Toys was before the DC license, getting small licenses and seeing what sells.

That said he does have the Marvel statue license but who knows how well that is going. Some seem to sell out but I also see them on discount a lot.

>>11485208
Once upon a time the 4H sculpted figures for the "Rampage: The Rocks Latest Tax Scam" movie toyline. It was dirt cheap, wal-mart exclusive, short run, bottom of the barrel budget line where even the larger figures only cost like $20 bucks. The gimmicks were awful, the plastic was creaky, the articulation non-existant, QC was garbage and the paint was barely there. But the sculpts were FANTASTIC.

So there is some credence to the idea that the actual money paid to sculptors is one of the lesser costs when it comes to toy manufacturing, especially nowadays where 3D sculpting prototypes the norm. But you will still get what you pay for....and if you're paying crappy sculptors, all the money in the world won't help things,

>>11484884 (OP)
I'm in for Lilith, but not because she actually looks all that good, nor because I'm even a fan of the franchise. Hell I don't think I ever actually played any Diablo games and I kind of dislike the whole isometric dungeon crawler genre to begin with.....but I *do* love me some evil lookin women, especially elegant demon chicks and that is a type of figure that's not easy to find.

The prices are honestly kinda absurd though, that's import/collector prices for stuff that don't look any better then your average western retail toyline. Hell, I felt his Kickstarter Medieval Spawn figure wasn't even all that better then his usual $25 like stuff outside of the better paintjob and assload of accessories. For what Mcfarlane is charging, I can get far better products from 4H, Loose Collector, Frazeta Girls, Fresh Monkey Fiction, Savage Crucible, Xesray or even some Figuarts (though not many these days) so I really don't think that price point of his will work out in the long run. Especially of the Persona and Fallout figures are indicative of the future of the line as a whole.

>>11485238
Here's my theory : You have no idea how the toy industry works. First of all, McF uses in-house sculptors on payroll. And any good design manager or art director will not accept shitty sculpts just to 'save a couple hundred dollars in sculptor pay' and forever be left with a shitty product.

>>11485246
>He just will give the Chinese factories and freelance sculptors less money for less figures
Same person as above? Again, that's not how the toy world works. When you grab an IP, you are contractually obligated for a certain number of years and/or a certain amount of product. He can't just go making one figure from a bunch of different properties and see what sells.

>>11485247
>For what Mcfarlane is charging, I can get far better products from Loose Collector
All right, let's not get crazy. Loose Collector is another one that's wildly overpriced for what it is. Basically Legends for 3x the price and with some of the most glaring drops in quality from promo pics to release I've ever seen.

>>11485356
I also feel the $70-75 LC figures that are just glorified Legends are still a better value than whatever standard McFarlane figures they are offering for $60 in these stupid Elite packages. While outdated looking, the LC figures still look better than the really bad looking joints on these Elites

>>11485217
Timber from the GI Joe Classified line has a much sharper sculpt, and isn't a statue.
Fuck Todd in his lisping faggot ass.

>>11484884 (OP)
>Diablo IV Lilith
I don't collect McFarlane, but I quite enjoyed Diablo IV and Lilith looks good. And it beats paying double for the figma which likely won't turn out well or tower over my domestic slop collection like I'd want her to

>>11484884 (OP)
$60 for Lucy and her Dogmeat figure isn't even articulated? That's some grade A bullshit.

McF's Lilith and Slayer are showing in physical already, we won't see figma Lilith until late October and while the figma TDA Slayer will be vastly better by mere default, we probably won't see it until next year.

When or if figma or even Bandai tackle the Fallout license, I'd like to think the only one that could potentially rob inventory space are the McF Persona figs.

>>11485466
Right? Wild. That Hasbro 2pack was only $40 right? Better sculpts, better articulation and engineering, more accessories AND the super articulated canine? Todd should be embarrassed

>>11484884 (OP)
It's quite funny seeing McFarlane starting to upcharge the shit out of his figures now that he lost his money printer (Batman)
It's also insane that the Persona figure and Lucy figure costs the same when Lucy comes with fuck all, at least the persona figure comes with stuff even if it looks ass.

>>11485199
But the paint anon! look at the sculpt and paint! this is high end! You can even swap her face! this is some high end luxury stuff!

>>11485572
>at least the persona figure comes with stuff
Hardly. Just the cheap plastic base, sword, gun, 5 hands, and 3 face plates. Is that worth the extra $30? Fuck no. Many standard figures come with a pair of hands and an accessory already.

>>11485604
oh yeah well I'm not saying its worth 60 dollars either, but it at least tries to put up more of an illusion that it's worth 60 dollars, Lucy doesn't and is the most transparent example of Todd trying to scam people, because he lost Batman so no more easy money.

>>11484884 (OP)
Christ, Todd, that Fallout girl and dog are an April Fools joke right? $60, tarriffs have been TACOed out, what the fuck are you charging that much for a barely $19.99 figure? The sculpting is atrocious, the likeness is not even trying, and an dollar store toy dog? Really?

Never gotten a McFarlame figure and don't think I ever will. Besides the 7 inch scale that doesn't fit with anything else I have, their figures always look so weirdly stiff and static. Can't believe they hyped up the sculpting and paint for this line when it's the same bad looking shit they've done forever. That Lucy looks just like their usual $20 or whatever figures. And they are still using pin joints... in 2025... and charging $60 kek kek kek

>>11485646
>likeness
McFarlane is the only company today that doesn't do pinless joints and face printing, right? Heck, even Jazwares and Jakks are doing those now. That's partly why Mcfarlane's faces always look so bad.

>>11485657
>Never gotten a McFarlame figure and don't think I ever will.
You and everyone else complaining about le Poop McFartbutt. For some reason this man and his products makes /toy/ utterly deranged.

>>11485670
There are other companies still using pinned joints and not using printing. I know Bandai America has pinned limbs on the dragon ball figures they do for example. But yeah those aren’t $60.

>>11485720
Right, that one budget line from Bandai has the old pinned joints. But every other company aside from Todd has at least one line with pinless and/or face printing. He's way behind the times

Do you guys think the power armor will be on sale in the future or sold out and scalped? Lucy I'm sure will be clearance, but power armors are beloved. 60 dollars is fucking ridiculous, but how often does fallout get actual action figures though as mentioned from anon above this thread?

I'm going to be fucking pissed if he can't two-hand pose holding and aim with a laser rifle or at least a minigun.

>>11485391
The problem with gijoe is it seems every female has the same 2-3 legs. I will take softer sculpting for more variety

>>11485788
Looks like an artist proof with a wash. For $60 that shit needs to be fully painted

>>11485853
It looks exactly like how an old busted power armor abandoned in the wasteland would look the issue is it shouldn’t be $60

>>11485788
>>11485853
>only the front side is washed
>$60

YEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHIIII Get fooled again!!

>>11485786

>>11485788
better start screaming into a pillow bro

>>11485356
....right, fair enough. Sometimes I forget not everyone got their LC for the early bird price. Vampirella and Sonia are far better figures for $50 then they are for $70.

>>11485675
I'm complaining and I've been buying his stuff since that first Clamshell Kenner style Spawn figure with the nail-in-a-board accessory. McFarlane is actually capable of making some amazing looking figures, it's just the vast majority of the time he chooses to produce crap.

>>11485840
Look at this guy, he likes being wrong.

>>11486103
Keep consuming those movie Scarlett classified leg sculpts. I see them on nearly every damn figure.

>>11485788
Given McFarlane track record on bulkier figures I highly doubt it

>>11485876
The power armors are made out of metal, not gray plastic. For 60 dollars, it should look like this. If you want it for cheaper, sure, it could look like >>11485788

>>11485466
I'm always confused as to why McFarlane can't articulate the animals and just make statues of them. Is their engineering team just dumb or did they all get cut once the sculpt reuse began?

>>11486160
....out of twenty five or so female figures released in the line so far, only TWO of them have those legs, and even then they only share the thighs.

So yea, you certainly do like being wrong.

>>11486240
Yes.

>>11485341
>McF uses in-house sculptors on payroll.
Modern citation needed. It's commonly stated here that most domestic toy companies outsource most of their sculpting now to freelancers. And even if you're right that McFarlane is entirely in house sculpting, I covered both cases there: commission and hourly.

>And any good design manager or art director will not accept shitty sculpts just to 'save a couple hundred dollars in sculptor pay' and forever be left with a shitty product.
Anon, have you ever seen a modern McFarlane release? It's pretty clear they don't care if they output shitty product. There are lazy choices and mistakes everywhere. They pull art that doesn't match figures. They reuse parts that don't fit the character they are making. They don't keep their characters in scale with even their own line. They don't even test their torso and hip articulation to make sure most of it works properly against the sculpt variances. Assuming they have "good" managers or directors is like assuming Hasbro's CEO cares about anything but money. ~70% of their sculpts are bad. I only buy from the other ~30% that I have interest in and occasionally dabble in crap sculpts if they're on clearance, for fun, or if I can use some parts.

>Again, that's not how the toy world works. When you grab an IP, you are contractually obligated for a certain number of years and/or a certain amount of product. He can't just go making one figure from a bunch of different properties and see what sells.
I was stating the output drop of when he has DC which has a huge figure output vs output when he loses DC next year. I don't know what you think I'm saying but it isn't whatever you're arguing against. It's saying he can scale down because the Chinese factories work on orders--he doesn't own them, so he could order 90% less than his DC height if that is all he needs. If he has all sculptors on payroll instead of commission as you seem to think then he will be letting a lot of sculptors go.

>>11486252
>Question that prompts someone to pick from one of 2 scenarios.
>Response is: "Yes."
Is that you Monoco?

>>11486263
Nobody is reading all that. TLDR, McFarlane sucks and always has. They don't prioritize good sculpting or engineering and are now doing the same but also price gouging since Toddy's money maker was taken away

>>11486325
McFarlane's engineering has always sucked, but they used to be the *king* of good sculpt, to the point where they were worth buying despite being literal statues. The fact they've fallen so far and put out so many sub-par products with such mushy or bland sculpts is honestly kind of a shame.

>>11486325
That's indeed a partial summary of the post but it wouldn't really address >>11485341 to just say "McFarlane is bad and is now price gouging."

Todd has talked about how his company is a survivor so they may get through this. The tariffs are probably one of the worst dangers they have ever faced because they hurt small-mid sized businesses like McFarlane Toys the most, so it is possible they shutter if the next few years are mishandled.

>>11486361
>possible they shutter if the next few years are mishandled.
Hell, the last few years have been woefully mishandled. Their only saving grace was the DC license where there were so many super fans that will buy the figures no matter how awful or what scale they are. Their next most popular IP (Mortal Kombat?) is maybe a tenth the size of the DC output, and they certainly will have lost nearly all their retail presence. I think they're definitely fucked.

>>11486278
NTA, but when you ask an "either or" question and someone replies with "yes", it is a cheeky way of saying that both of the presented options are true. Are you ESL?

>>11486370
Look at where they were before DC. The biggest difference between before DC and after DC is not having little retail presence or relying on smaller IPs, but the tariffs. The tariffs are what will destroy McFarlane Toys if anything does.

>>11486387
No native speaker (or anyone fluent) has ever described himself as EFL. You might want to make a note, saar.

>>11486401
EFL is a "cheeky" way to joke about someone calling people ESL. I myself have already posted on this board calling someone who says others are "ESL" as "EFL-kun" in the past. Apparently you never saw that. Have you ever heard of a "joke"? Is it impossible for you to comprehend that someone could have an original thought?

But here have a pic of a fucking toy because you are taking us dangerously off topic.

>>11486395
The massive swing in retail presence and revenue is going to be jarring. In the millions of dollars. Now is the time to actually buckle down and deign things well, but I think Todd has been so used to churning out garbage that he'll never learn.

The DC line was really, really bad but I think Tard McFartLame really fucked himself burning through those Spawn figures. All those huge expensive literal whos just did not move units and I have no idea how he got retailers to pick them up in the first place.

Spending the first couple years of the DC line on endless zombified versions of characters instead of decent ones really set that line back, and Todd's complete ignorance of the modern toy industry ("what do you mean you don't want sculpted screaming faces and non-neutral poses?" "but bigger figures = more better? what do you mean by 'scale'?") are what killed it in the long run.

I do not foresee a future for McFarlane.

>>11486240
todd ideologically believes that people prefer "dynamic" sculpts to posability. He's gone on record saying he doesn't really like articulation and prefers things to be sculpted in dynamic poses first. So to him, the idea is that you sculpt the animal in the pose it's supposed to be in, and then you don't need to waste money on joints.

Another good example: The Drowned from the DC line. She's sculpted with her hair and limbs just so so that you can replicate the pose on her comic book cover. That's it, though - that's the pose you're supposed to use. Everything else will always look weird because her hair is posed to be floating in just that way.

>>11487797
>Spending the first couple years of the DC line on endless zombified versions of characters instead of decent ones really set that line back

because he is Todd Motherfucking McFarlane, he created Spawn you know

>>11487808
That's not technically a McFarlane figure. That was the DC Icons line from DC Direct. When Todd absorbed some of their stuff after they went under, he essentially was given tooling that was already paid for, so of course he churned out some cheap repaints. He didn't pay for the tooling for those.

>>11487797
>"what do you mean by 'scale'?" is what killed it in the long run.
I vividly remember the very first convention when McFarlane had a huge showing and a flashy booth. They were showing off their first DC figures and there was ZERO scale between figures. I remember people interviewing Todd asking about why no figures scaled with one another and he was genuinely flabbergasted that people didn't want every figure to be exactly 7" tall, females and males alike. That was when I knew anything from them was just fucked. Todd and nobody there has any understanding of what needs to be done to make a good collector line.

>>11487975
You don't understand, anon, the line by their own words isn't 1/10 scale. Rather it is 7 inch scale, meaning everything is 7 inch :)

>>11487975
Yes! He thought by coming out with 7'' figures he was making a huge splash and people would be excited because bigger = more toy, and seeing him just not grasp that that's not what people wanted was both really funny and really depressing as a DC fan.

That and his stubborn insistence on that Spawn figure's hip tilt. The man is a fucking dinosaur

>>11488018

>>11488091

>>11488013
Nobody plays with McFarts. They simply put them in the only possible pose that doesn't look like shit and then go hunting for the next Platinum Edition Gold Label Silver Age Bronze Patina NFT.

>>11488091
>>11488098
Joytoy's Space Marines aren't in scale to anything though and are as arbitrary in size as McFarlane's females are to their males.

So the Warhammer figures never really had a scale. And they're probably worse than McFarlane's DC figures at properly representing the size of the characters. It'd be like Doomsday being the same size as Superman or Wonder Woman being the same height as the Flash.

Pic shows how non-scale everything from Joytoy is. The Space Marine should stand about a head taller than the Spartan and the Tau figure should be about half a head shorter (shorter than the Clone Trooper and skinnier too).

So regarding McFarlane pricing, McFarlane's Music Maniacs figures which already go to clearance just went from msrp 24.99 to 34.99. It's over.

>>11484884 (OP)
Doomslayer/Doomguy doesn't even look all that great. Nice sculpt but the articulation is gonna be shite (check out those single elbows) and the paint will probably suck too.
>>11488573
If anything I think the Spartan is oversized. Though it's a moot point as JoyToy's scale is (or at least was before they fucked it up a bit with the HH line) based primarily on the miniatures, with some artistic license taken on proportions. You know, the miniatures, the primary medium for 40K. You'd know this if you owned any.

>>11490962
The spartan is actually undersized, because its in 3.75" scale and not 1:18. Yes, there's a difference, but so slight that most people don't care (forehead height difference).

And the "muh based on minis" was just cope from the shills in the Warhammer thread. They were making any shit up that seemed to fit to explain away Joytoy fucking up. They even blamed GW for the bad engineering in their toys.

No matter how you looked at it, the Joytoy Warhammer line never had a scale and is more inconsistent than anything McFarlane ever produced.

>sbubby meltdown
I thought you were supposed to be dead, or a robot, or both.

>>11491025
>And the "muh based on minis" was just cope from the shills in the Warhammer thread.
They are based on minis though. Hence why for the most part (before JT went kinda nuts with the HH line and the recent SM2 based figures) the scale is pretty much in line with the tabletop models. Which again, you'd know if you had any.
>They even blamed GW for the bad engineering in their toys.
How is not being able to literally defy gravity when faithfully adapting static, tiny models wielding huge weapons glued to bases into fully articulated 1/18 scale figures "bad engineering"? All things considered they did a pretty good job; I've had some figures with questionable balance but nothing dreadful and certainly nothing a base or stand can't fix.
>No matter how you looked at it, the Joytoy Warhammer line never had a scale and is more inconsistent than anything McFarlane ever produced.
Lmao, no. JoyToy's Sisters and other human figures are appropriately much shorter than their Marines...whilst McFarlane made them the same size. I don't know how the fuck you got to that conclusion, but-
Oh wait, this is Subjectanon having a fit because someone insulted his father figure and his crummy toys.

Your entire argument about anything being "faithful" is instantly proven false by the fact that Joytoy's figures not having the midget proportions of the minis.
Even when they changed style mid-line, the newer figures (left) still don't have the midget proportions of the minis.

Pic clearly shows that they weren't trying to copy the minis before and how they aren't faithful now either, despite looking more cartoony today.

So again, you ahve an entire line that is inconsistently non-scale with itself.

>>11491444

Learn to read.

>>11491032
And here's a picture instantly proving you're lying about McFarlane too, because shills like you shit on other brands to pretend Joytoy aren't doing a poor job. Nothing but "whataboutism"
Joytoy lies almost as bad as you, since they plaster on their box that their toys are 1:18, when anyone with a little bit of knowledge about WH40k can see they're not.

... okay, that's that's wrong, because NOW their toys are 1:18 because Joytoy upsized their figures in the past year or so (again), but that pissed off all the Joytoy Warhammer fans because now their old toys are incompatible with their new ones, which is probably why the WH40k thread is so slow now. The shift from the scale increase really killed the line and thread.

Everything you've said is made up bullshit, just to defend Joytoy. Even saying I'm Korean, which you only claim because you're butthurt over me correctly pointing out you (and/or the other shills) are a third worlder ESL.

>>11491447
Thanks for pointing out your double speak.

You can't claim that Joytoy is "faithfully adapting" the minis when they don't have the midget proportions.
You can't blame GW for Joytoy fucking up their engineering if they're taking "artistic license" to make them into toys.

All this proves you'rea bad liar and that Joytoy was just doing whatever they wanted with the toyline, without regard to the property nor their fans, hence the WH40k line being so wildly inconsistent.

Pic shows how they've blown the size of their figures up in ~3 years and this isn't even the first time they increased the size. If McFarlane did this, you'd rightfully be able to shit on their 8" Superman not being in scale with their 7" Batman, but instead
>b-b-b-b-but Joytoy is the greatest company there is and everyone else is worse ever and you're the ESL, not me!

>>11491032

Wait he's a gook? Lmao that explains his shit taste and effeminate sensibilities.

>>11491455

Nice try, you abhorrent gook.
Also, even if we ignore the deliberate optical illusion there and pretend that's an accurate picture, the oldscale JoyToy Marines are bigger in comparison to the JoyToy Sisters than the McFarlane Marines are than the McFarlane Sisters. See pic. Not to mention the JT Sister (who as a regular human is the size baseline) scales far, FAR better with other humans in 1/18 than the McFarlane Sister does with 1/12 or even 1/10 humans.
>>11491464
>You can't claim that Joytoy is "faithfully adapting" the minis when they don't have the midget proportions.
Holy autistic black-and-white thinking, subby.
The designs are basically 1:1 with the minis. The overall height scaling WAS before they started upscaling everything (according to them to get better articulation and proportions- which I could believe, the older termies looked a touch on the goofy side, though Terminator proportions have ALWAYS been ridiculous even in official artwork). The actual body proportions were slightly adjusted to work better as action figures. Emphasis mine, slightly, and the weapons remain comically large, 'cuz 40K, which is gonna cause balance/holding problems.
>If McFarlane did this, you'd rightfully be able to shit on their 8" Superman not being in scale with their 7" Batman, but instead
Instead we rightfully shit on them for being atrocious toys.
Now run back to your K-pop you kimchi-munching freak.

I see this is the subby/Athena containment thread.

>>11491478
>if i make up my own definitions, lie, and make contradictory statements without any evidence, i can bullshit into infinity and there's nothing you can do to stop me
no shit?

pic of how Joytoy doesn't give a shit about you, the WH40k property, and it's why the WH40k thread suddenly slowed down when everyone could see that the second upsize of the line was too much of fuck up.

... nevermind that style change too. Like, it went from realistically proportioned humans to cartoons. >>11491444 wtf were they thinking?

BTW, do you like the new pinheads on the Space Marines? The rest of the WH40k general hates them, but since you're a Joytoy employee, i wonder if you'll even acknowledge this.

>>11491499
You’re korean.

I see a lot of people discussing Warhammer 40k here, including McFarlane's line, and I am wondering...how is this line still going? He just announced more figures today. But the prices went from $20 straight to $30 and for these new ones will likely go to $35 as DC's CEs went from $30 to $35 also. Are people actually still buying these? Do they actually think they are still worth it? Or is McFarlane only making like 12000 of them and that is why they aren't pegwarming everywhere?

>>11491499
>BTW, do you like the new pinheads on the Space Marines? The rest of the WH40k general hates them, but since you're a Joytoy employee, i wonder if you'll even acknowledge this.
Nope, not too fond of them, I don't like the new scale in general. I get why they did it (they're based on the Space Marine 2 depictions specifically, which made them fuckhueg, and I guess the Chinese market went gaga for GRUG LIKE BIG TOY) but I don't much like it. Fortunately it just seems to be affecting Marines (who have a huge back-catalogue of figures anyway) so at the very least any other human-sized figures should still be OK.
>>>11491444 wtf were they thinking?
The Cadian mini that figure is based on is more muscular and generally bulkier than the Krieg mini the other one is based on. If you actually knew a damn thing about 40K you'd know that Kriegers are supposed to be thin and scrawny on account of coming from an irradiated hellhole and essentially being a death cult regiment. But as you're a mini-lacking secondary at best from Japan's repulsive wannabe-imitator, you know nothing about any of that.
Also reminder that this topic is about McFarlane's dogshit figures he's selling for SIXTY DOLLARY DOOS, not your hateboner at JoyToy for utterly BTFOing Todd's 40K line at half the size.
>>11491505
McFarlane's 40K figures are decent enough, if you're willing to customize them and avoid the human-sized figures which are too big to look right with anything. I still see them warming pegs here though, and I dunno if they'll sell at all if he puts the prices up; at £20 a pop they were tolerable, any more than that, nope.

>>11491505
McFarlane's Warhammer line went up in price since the last wave.
And they're obviously selling well if they're still producing them. It's hard to say whether they're selling fewer now, but if stores are selling out, it's a good sign.

>>>510 more obvious bullshit where he needs to say 2+2=5 and his rationalizations on why 5 is the correct answer, because he needs to shill for Joytoy
BTW, McFarlane's non-Space Marines figures work with 1:10 and 7" figures. So NECA, McFarlane, DCD, Diamond Select, etc

>>11491550
>I have no argument so I'll just dismiss your rebuttals as "obvious bullshit" and "shilling" even though you said you don't like JoyToy's retardedly huge newer Marines
I accept your concession you pathetic IJA target practice dummy.
>BTW, McFarlane's non-Space Marines figures work with 1:10 and 7" figures. So NECA, McFarlane, DCD, Diamond Select, etc
So nothing good then, gotcha.
Also
>That pic
Jesus, that Marine scales FAR worse with other 1/10 stuff than JoyToy's older Marines do with other 1/18 figures. A kid (Robin) stands at the same height compared to that Marine as the JoyToy Sister (who bear in mind is supposed to be an incredibly physically fit and tall woman wearing power armour) does next to the JoyToy Marine, if not slightly taller. Either Robin's a giant or the Marine is too small (likely the latter as he's like a hair taller than the other capeshit girls in the pic).
Ironically, McFarlane Marines work pretty well in 1/12, as do the other non-human figures they did- Necrons and Genestealers are pushing it a tad as they're not supposed to be massive but being alien robots and hybridized bugmen respectively you can fudge the scale- but the human figures are definitely 1/10, and too big to stand next to the Marines.
...Side note, 1/10 is such a pointless scale. Just bigger enough than 1/12 (which is a long established miniature scale that predates mass-produced action figures by at least a century) to look weird next to them but not quite larger enough to actually justify its own niche's existence. Doesn't help that most of the stuff in that scale is trash like Randyslop. It's like Play Arts Kai being 1/9 or 1/8- I forget which- for seemingly no reason but to be different, except those actually scaled with each other at least. Or like McFarlane's Halo line which went from 1/16, which is at least a large armour modeller's scale, to 1/15, which didn't even scale with the previous figures.

>>11491550
>"BTW, McFarlane's non-Space Marines figures work with 1:10 and 7" figures"
>posts pic of 7 foot tall Space Marine that is barely taller than Catwoman
So I guess the non-Space Marine figures don't work with the Space Marines then.

>>11491550
If you notice what McFarlane is producing now though it's pretty much all space marines and mostly reuse. That's actually not a great sign.

>>11491628
If you saw the image with the Space Nun, you'd know that that the Space Marines stand at around 7.5" tall. McFarlane's scale is basically the same as Joytoy's... except Joytoy changed the size of their toys every year without warning, so Joytoy's scale is wildly inconsistent, espoecially since they were never 1:18 to begin with.
If you pretend McFarlane's Space Marines are the pre-Primaris marines, they actually scale with 1:12 figures, since the Astartes are supposed to stand around 7'+ (Primaris 8'6"+)

>>>1149 if you don't argue with my contrarian bullshit that means you're wrong
heh?

>>11491644
Well, Space Marines are Warhammer's biggest and best selling factions, so... i think they're just following what makes them the most money. Without actually knowing how many figures they made or seeing sales data, all we know if shit sells out = good for retailers and McFarlane.
I wish they had done some other power armor though. Even if McFarlane just lazily made Tau Stealth Battlesuit as a 7" figure and called it a day, it'd work out for 1:12 scale.

>>11491801
>If you saw the image with the Space Nun
The image where the Marine's feet were tilted down to make them look taller than they actually were you mean? Also
>Space Nun
Not beating the secondary allegations, subbykins.
> McFarlane's scale is basically the same as Joytoy's
But it's OK when daddy Todd does it, right?
And no, it's far, far more out of wack, because JoyToy actually scales with other 1/18 figures without making the Marines look like buff manlets or the humans look like giants.
>except Joytoy changed the size of their toys every year without warning, so Joytoy's scale is wildly inconsistent
"Every year" is hyperbole; the shift to the bigger Marines has been very annoying and personally I hate it even if I understand why they did it (TLDR: The SM2 based figures, which were bigger to match the artstyle of the game, were super-well received so they're using them as the basis for their Marines going forwards), and the weird transitionary period wasn't great, though that mostly affected Terminators (who are always gonna look weird 'cuz the character design IS weird) but acting like buying any JoyToy Marine is going to be Russian roulette as to the scale is stupid. There's LOADS of Marines available in the older (IMO better) scale, and those were very consistent. Also the regular humans have stayed consistently sized, so...
> espoecially since they were never 1:18 to begin with.
This crap again? I swear with your obsession with scales I'd not be surprised to find you on the news for sticking your shrivelled gook micropenis into an unsuspecting lizard.

"McFarlane's Marines scale better with unrelated figures than McFarlane's other 40K figures if you ignore my own goalposts and this is somehow better than JoyToy scaling just as well with their own smaller 40K figures!". Well hot damn, how amazing. With all this goalpost moving you should be a goalkeeper.
For the record, I like the McFarlane Marines. They're alright for the price, and they do scale alright at 1/12, but they really need some paint TLC to shine and the human figures are so utterly out of scale with everything else that I can't recommend the line overall.
>since the Astartes are supposed to stand around 7'+ (Primaris 8'6"+)
Nigga what? The difference between a Chaos Marine (which is the same size as the very few non-Primaris Marine sculpts we've gotten since their introduction) and a Primaris Marine is barely even noticable, certainly not one and a half foot. Unless you think the difference between the old undersized Marines (pictured on the left) and the Primaris is canon, in which case you're absolutely retarded and have no business lecturing anyone about scale.
Dumbass.
>M-McFarlane 40K is totally selling well guys!
Explains why they've massively slowed down their releases and have gone from releasing a lot of unique sculpts to a handful of reused figures and can regularly be found bargain binning OH WAIT.
They're contractually obligated to keep making figures until the license expires and they're just adequate enough to not be retail poison. That's it.
Your hasubando is making crap nobody wants and you're so butthurt about it you're deflecting by lying about how a different toyline is "totally awful, guys, for real!" to defend Maccy F's honour and calling everyone else "contrarians" for not agreeing with you. Pathetic.

Again, this single picture proves everything you say is bullshit, because it shows that Joytoy doesn't give a shit.

Not one shit for it being 1:18.

Not one shit for their own toyline being in scale with itself, because again, they've increased the scale 3 times in less than 4 years.

That's nearly every year, because the line wasn't even out in September 2021 and we're now in July 2025.

>b-b-but the models!... that clearly don't have the same proportions nor style as the toys
what a retarded comparison by a retard. Again, pic proves everything you say is contrarian bullshit.

>>11491951
>Again, this single picture proves everything you say is bullshit, because it shows that Joytoy doesn't give a shit.
How? The Blood Angel on the left is like a hair taller than the one on the right. Unnecessary for sure but easily within the realms of "Marines are not all the same size" and definitely not as egregious as the absurdly oversized Space Marine 2 based ones.
>Not one shit for it being 1:18.
It is closer to 1/18 than McFarlane's Marines are to 1/10 or their humans are to 1/12, because Todd does not understand scale.
>Not one shit for their own toyline being in scale with itself, because again, they've increased the scale 3 times in less than 4 years.
Until very recently, the scale increases were pretty minimal. Your own pic shows how much of a nothingburger it was. As mentioned, I do not care for the extreme size increases as of late even if I understand the thinking behind it, but posting a blurry, tiny picture showing how minor the initial upsizing was and claiming it "proves" JoyToy is le bad because muh scale whilst simultaneously defending McFarlane's demented sizing, with Astartes and humans being two completely different scales, is disingenuous at best, and definitely fucking retarded.
>That's nearly every year, because the line wasn't even out in September 2021 and we're now in July 2025.
They've also released more toys in just their first year of having the 40K license than your comfort-woman mother has sucked IJA cocks. It's not like they released three figures which were all completely different sizes; they've released wave after wave of toys, most of which are in the same scale.
And again, the humans have stayed the same size. Only Marines have gotten bigger. Now's your chance to get the kaiju-sized Marine scaling you've always wanted!
>what a retarded comparison by a retard.
Are you actually capable of understanding the difference between proportions and scale? And what does that pic prove beyond that you need bigger pics?
Retard.

>>11492023
>>nothing but contrarian bullshit because he can't prove anything he shits out
What, do you want a full peer-reviewed study on why figures designed after models are (or were) scaled according to the models? (Which ironically that image does nothing to disprove; the original JT Loyalist Terminators were scaled to match the older Termies, whilst the newer ones are based on the 10th Edition kit, which is itself egregiously oversized even on the tabletop). Surely having functioning eyes and a brain should suffice? I know that might be difficult for you.
>And again, is why the WH40k thread has declined, because even the fanboys started getting fed up of Joytoy not giving a shit
Or because your incessant shitposting has made most people not want to bother with the thread. Same reason the fighting game general died after countless threads derailed by you getting mad toys of an anime styled game might have anime styled faces. Same reason Mezco threads have declined because of your constant tantrums any time anyone criticized a Mezco product (remember the time you refused to acknowledge Hulk's mismatched greens?).

Nobody is claiming JoyToy figures never break or have QC issues; I had a Termagant with a broken claw joint and a Techmarine missing a part (though the shop provided me with a replacement part really quickly). But pretending that JoyToy (which is, again, an extremely prolific company that puts out a shit-tonne of toys, which is always gonna increase the likelihood of duds) is NECA-tier bad with QC because of a few cherrypicked cases is genuinely retarded.

It's pretty obvious that he's trying to detail the thread because he doesn't want people talking about the $60 McFarlane shelfwarmers.

I didn't say anything about the $60 figures, because i don't give a shit about fallout or doomguy and didn't even look at it. >>11492625 is correct.
I'll be buying Lilith, but no one's talked about her, so i haven't said anything. The Figma looks nice too, but is it $60 nicer? No, because mcFarlane's seems to have more paint apps and accessories. The only thing the Figma has going for it is the shading.

So what made me post in this thread? I made a response about someone talking about Joytoy's Warhammer figures being in scale, so i pointed out he's wrong and showed proof that Joytoy's figures have never been in scale with anything, not even themselves.. Then the shills GOT MAD and they're on post #105 on why I'm worse than Chinese Hitler, because i kept on proving them liars and Joytoy is bad at making toys, like pic related

>>>11492663
Sorry for call you samefag, but since you also obviously have an axe to grind against me, you sound the same to me. Completely ridiculous to have a grudge against random anons online, especially when you only have a problem with me because I hate shitty QC and shitty paint jobs on toys i'd love to buy (again, pic related).

take up a trip if you want to be treated seperately.

>>11492644
oh wait, my bad. I thought we were talking about the Warhammer figures being shelf warmers, because how can OPs figures be shelf warmers if they're not even out yet? Again, this is why i call out liars, who have proven they're just shills who only come to these/make threads to shit on other brands.

I didn't say anything about the $60 figures, because i don't give a shit about fallout or doomguy and didn't even look at it. >>11492625 is correct.

So you're only here to shitpost about Joytoy.
Thanks for proving my point.

>>11492697

nice shill logic

again, pic proves my point about you shills and your constant need to deny facts.

>>11492686
>when you only have a problem with me because
Because you've been posting the same bullshit for years. YEARS.
I wish you would use a trip so I can filter you. I am tired of reading the same old bullshit in multiple threads because someone mentioned Joytoy and it triggers you like a fucking Iraq War vet seeing a trashpile on the side of the road.
Joytoy doesn't even need to be mentioned. Someone can point out you are an annoying sperg that has been shitting up the board for years, and how do you respond? "JOYTOY SHILLS WAH WAH WAH GOLD PAINT BRITTLE PLASTIC WAH WAH WAH."
Which only proves that the anon that called you and annoying sperg is 100% right.
>>11492704
>shills
I'm not your boogeyman, you fucking mental case. I don't give a fuck about Joytoy. All your posts about Joytoy make me hate you more than you will ever hate Joytoy. You aren't proving anything about Joytoy. The only thing you are proving is how much of a maladjusted retard you are.

>>11492711
What bullshit? Nothing I've said is a lie, hence posting photographic proof about everything I've talked about.
You're the one that's bullshitting, just making contradictory remarks and dumb lies to keep to defend Joytoy. You offer no real proof and instead just say "nuh uh" and "NO U!"

Again, picture proves everything I've ever said and that you're nothing but a retarded shill who constantly needs to lie. This is actually on topic, because YOU want to claim I'm lying, despite anyone with eyes can see Joytoy uses Kenner quality paint jobs from the 90s on their $160 toys.

>y-y-you need stop thinking im samefag despite I'm behaving like the other shills
again, take up a trip so i can differentiate your bullshit from the rest of the bullshitters.

>>11492729
You should die.

>>11492729
>What bullshit? Nothing I've said is a lie
I know you aren't very good with English due to it not being your native language, so let me explain.
Bullshit has more than one definition.
The bottom one 100% applies to you waffling on about Joytoy any time someone points out that you've been shitting up the board for years, especially when you do it in threads where anons are talking shit about McFarlane.
Of course, now you need to find out what "discursive" means. Just a heads up, I don't mean the archaic definition.
>take up a trip
You should do it to prove you aren't a needy little attention whore desperate for (You)s, but you won't. The idea that we could filter out your bullshit terrifies you.

>>11492756
>use a noun
>expect people to understand it as the verb meaning
What a retard.

If you're not actually retarded, maybe you just need a better education and learn more words that can fit what you're trying to say, instead of ignorantly trying to throw what i say to you back to me.

And you're completely ignoring the fact that I wasn't the one that brought up Joytoy and the shills are the ones that need to keep lying and bullshitting for every single post to pretend pic related isn't actually a fact and brittle plastic on Joytoy's figures still being common today.

If you simply don't like what I'm saying, ignore me. If you want to keep getting called out for your stupid bullshit and lies, then keep bullshitting and lying in this thread.

Also, i find it funny that all my posts previously got responded to within a couple of hours for days but today it's totally anotherfag doing the same shit, except trying a different approach to defend Joytoy (him:lying/denying facts about Joytoy/shitting on other companies VS you:attacking the tone of my posts).
Totally not suspicious samefag behavior.

>>11492783
>use a noun
>expect people to understand it as the verb meaning
Not beating those ESL accusations, Subby. The noun is clearly as applicable as the second verb definition. What would you be filling the thread with if you are bullshitting the thread with discursive posts meant to stray from the topic of the thread?
Bullshit. Nonsense. Twaddle.
>Totally not suspicious
Like you bullshitting about Joytoy in yet another McFarlane thread.

12 inch Doom Slayer Atlan is going up on the 23rd. We're going to see just how high these prices are going to get.

>>11492843
>retard doubles back on needing to defend his low level vocabulary and namecalls instead
Oof. Sure is retard with a tiny vocabulary. It's no wonder you need to try and copy everything i say.

>bullshitting about Joytoy in yet another McFarlane thread.
Again, I'm not bullshitting and it isn't my fault that you needed to create 221 posts to deny the facts that Joytoy does a worse job at scale than McFarlane does, because Joytoy doesn't really give a shit about the properties they shove out the door.

Again, picture proves it. It comes from the last thread, where people are bitching about Joytoy's Warhammer figures no longer being worth getting because they've shrunk the heads on nearly every single new release for no reason at all... ontop of no longer being in scale from figures just a year ago ... where thsoe figures from a year ago were out of scale with the figures from a year before that.. which were out of scale with 1:18 figures despite claiming to be a 1:18 line.

The wrong side won WW2, didn't they?

>>11484884 (OP)
Wtf is McFarland doing? Is he just to set in his way? I remember when he used to actually observe the toy industry and how it engineered toys and implemented it into his shit with fantastic paint and a decent price. Wtf happened? McFarland can just look at what everyone else is doing and do that but better? Man has really fallen from grace and he should feel bad for devolving his brand to this point. Atleast hes not wasting all his money on stupid shit again like the first time he went bankrupt. Fucking wasting all that money on a gay ass base ball he probably shoved up his ass in his old forgetful age.

>>11494124
>Wtf is McFarland doing?
He lost the DC license and is using the tariffs as an excuse to jack up the prices and pretending the figures are worth it, he would really apperciate if you don't look at what other companies are offering.
>I remember when he used to actually observe the toy industry and how it engineered toys and implemented it into his shit with fantastic paint and a decent price. Wtf happened?
dude is stuck in his old ways too used being carried by DC fans buying his stuff because they have no other options that aren't the more expensive import figures, and Todd genuinely thinks his mindset still applies to the modern toy industry and hasn't kept up at all, that and he genuinely thinks people want his NFT shit when toy collectors has made it pretty clear they just want good toys, which he isn't offering.
Seriously if a company like Jakks or Jada got to make a Doom Slayer McFarlane's would be dumped by collectors super fast, but because he is the only domestic option he gets away with it.
Though seriously at 60 you might as well get the figma.
The Persona figure is very obviously him trying to get something that younger people actually care about nowadays and seeing if he can get away with the price.

>>11494068
>Sure is retard with a tiny vocabulary.
Sure is retard that posted Grammarly screenshots and proved he is an ESL that needs an AI to help compose his shitposts.
>I'm not bullshitting
Yes you are. Nobody gives a fuck about Joytoy except the 40k spergs you are trying to bait. This thread is about Todd's overpriced garbage. Stop filling the thread with off topic bullshit, you fucking illiterate ESL retard.

>>11494068
>It comes from the last thread
There is no "last thread."
This isn't the 40k thread, you dementia addled geriatric.

>>11494121
Japs were too lazy and weak to ever have a chance.

>>11494124
Back then there were things the industry didn't do that they could for low extra costs to make the figures dramatically better. That isn't the case anymore short of opening a factory in Africa and having it work out somehow. The Asian factories have closed all their loopholes and are wise to westerners trying to make high quality, low cost figures. It isn't possible there anymore. The tariffs make it even less so. And no one wants to risk setting up their own factories somewhere. Way too risky.

>>11494189
You're proving you're nothing but a retard with a limited vocab or an ESL. I used a word counter (wordcounter.net, which has grammerly built in) to prove my posts are short (~30 seconds to read) because you guys were bitching that they're too long. So when i started making fun of you for being ESLs, for struggling to read high school-level english, i decided to check your own posts to see what level of English you can use.
Turns out, you can't actually use English, because PLAGIARISM was found in your post, which means you're using a BOT or AI to write your posts for you. Of course, because you're a retard (or ESL), you immediately "NO U!" on me, because you need to copy everything i say.

But this has nothing to do with the topic, which has been you making 218 posts trying to defend Joytoy because McFarlane does scale better.

>Nobody gives a fuck about Joytoy except the 40k spergs
Then why'd you make 225 posts making shit up to defend Joytoy for fucking up their scale?
YOU want to argue with me about that shit. I proved my case a long time ago, yet you persist
>b-b-but that was totally a different person! It was totally someone else NEEDING to make shit up to defend Joytoy to your every post and now I'm someone else NEEDING to make shit up to your every post, because I'm now attacking you and still making shit up about other companies, instead of that other guy who was denying [pic related] isn't proof and making shit up about other companies! this totally proves I'm not samefag!
I take it the "other guy" hasn't responded since you took over because you're too cheap to pay for a VPN and don't want to be caught with a super obvious samefagging. Joytoy's shills sure aren't paid well.

Again, pic proves that even the fanboys have turned against Joytoy's WH40k figures, because they got tired of Joytoy being wildly inconsistent with their figures, changing scale year after year (plus shitty QC, brittle plastics, etc). So posting is way down.

>>11494676
>I used a word counter (wordcounter.net, which has grammerly built in)
Why would you use a website for a word counter? Are you really that tech illiterate?
>for struggling to read high school-level english
High school level English with enough errors in it that you wouldn't get a passing grade anywhere that white people are a majority.
>Turns out, you can't actually use English, because PLAGIARISM was found in your post
The fact that you trust the pajeet AI that Grammarly has built into it shows how much of a tech illiterate ESL you are.
>you immediately "NO U!" on me
I've known you are an ESL since before Covid. Your syntax has certain errors which native English speakers don't usually make beyond elementary school, and that is what clued me in to the fact that you are an ESL. Either that, or you are seriously retarded. Most likely both.
>But this has nothing to do with the topic, which has been you making 218 posts trying to defend Joytoy because McFarlane does scale better.
No, the topic is Todd being a rip-off merchant yet again. The only time I have mentioned Joytoy was to tell you to shut up about them. The fact that you are STILL posting Joytoy images as bait is proof that you cannot stop trolling. You are quite literally addicted to trolling and shitposting.
>I take it the "other guy" hasn't responded since you took over because you're too cheap to pay for a VPN
But we were both posting at the same time yesterday, so why would that stop "me" now if that were the case? Do you really think that everyone that calls you a fucking retard is samefagging? I guess we can add "schizo" to the list of your qualities.

>>11494710
LOL, i love how you need to pretend to totally know English, despite the fact it was proven you use a BOT to make your posts for you. If you actually knew English, you'd be able to pinpoint what was wrong with my sentences, instead of making generic insults.

I mean, back when you started copying me when i started calling you guys ESL, it was because of the Joytoy shills were using weirdass terms that only asians use, like "secondary." Nevermind your constant need to copy the shit i say, then reuse them incorrectly, because your vocabulary is so limited. Oh, but i didn't delete a word when changing a sentence around? Most native speakers realize it for what it is and immediately forget about it, because typos are a diamond dozen.

But again, you're just nitpicking and trying to move discussion away from the topic that your past 253 posts before this were about, which is the fact that McFarlane did scale better than Joytoy and you needing to deny what's obvious to everyone.

Again, picture is proof of how badly Joytoy fucks up their scale, which is why Joytoy's own fanboys are ditching the line, leaving only shills like yourself desperately doing damage control

>>11494754
The only person that used a bot was you. You literally posted the screenshot that proved you use a bot. And then you used a bot to try to prove that other anons use bots because every accusation you make is an admission of guilt.
>but Grammarly proved that it was plagiarism which means you use a bot
Spoken by someone that needs an AI to figure shit out for them because they lack the cognitive ability to do things themselves.
>you'd be able to pinpoint what was wrong with my sentences
I have in the past, but I decided a long time ago that I don't get paid enough to be your English instructor.
>back when you started copying me when i started calling you guys ESL, it was because of the Joytoy shills
I've been calling you an ESL for longer than Joytoy have had the 40k license, but keep thinking I'm one of your boogeyman Joytoy shills, schizo. Hell, I'm probably where you adopted the term from. Just like how you adopted the term "contrarian" after someone called you one and you've never once been able to use the term correctly. Probably because you are an ESL retard.

>>11494802
>NO U!!!
a quality post as expected for a retard (or ESL).

But that's enough of you derailing the thread, because you want to ignore your own arguments that you made 267 posts for before.

Remember when you were trying to prove that Joytoy wasn't worse at scaling their toys than McFarlane? What happened to that?
Again, picture is proof of Joytoy sucking shit, because they don't give a shit.

>>11494820
>a quality post as expected for a retard
Says the retard that continues to spam Joytoy images like it has anything to do with the thread topic.
>Remember when you were trying to prove that Joytoy
So, in summary, you can't read the thread topic, you can't read the OP, and you can't read where I stated that I haven't said shit about Joytoy except to tell you that most of us don't give a fuck about your autistic hyperfixation that you bring up in order to bait any 40k posters that happen to be lurking the thread.
All in English, which you clearly don't understand
You are an illiterate ESL that fills threads with bullshit, and can't stop shitposting.
Please respond with another Joytoy pic. You will only be proving me right.

>>11494866
>you're spamming images that have everything to do with the topic, but i say they don't because I've made 286 posts so far defending Joytoy with every sort of fallacy i can, including namecalling because i can't actually prove anything, since everything i say is bullshit
stay mad

pic shows how insanely out of scale Joytoy's WH40k line is. Yeah, they're about the same size, but that's not what scale means. Thsi is like a child being taller than his dad.

>>11494891
>you're spamming images that have everything to do with the topic
They don't though. The topic is how hard McFarlane has been failing at making even remotely acceptable toys despite jacking the price up. You deflected it to JoyToy because you can't stand the idea of your hasubando Todd getting criticized. You are a pathetic shilling fanboy troll and you need to kill yourself you vile gook.

>>11494891
>you're spamming images that have everything to do with the topic
I don't see what Joytoy has to do with McFarlane charging $60 for shit figures, but that is probably because I'm not a retarded schizophrenic ESL shitposter that tries to derail any threads critical of Todd.
>stay mad
Says the faggot eternally seething about Joytoy.

>>11494944
>shit that never happened
Sure is made up bullshit from a retard/ESL.
>>11495031
I didn't bring up Joytoy. Two other people were talking about them first and i clarified their statements by saying that Joytoy figures aren't in scale with anything.

Then the Joytoy Defense Shills started screeching to make 259 posts to claim their surrounding countries are all shit because China is the one true owner of Asia and other toybrands are the worst ever, because photographs proving Joytoy can't into scale exist.

So much mad over facts that you no longer want to talk about toys anymore, but i guess that was bound to happen when the WH40k thread has been dying ever since even the fanboys stopped buying the figures and you need to show Joytoy that you're still doing work for them.

... but it's not just scale problems that is killing the WH40k thread, but also shit like this being common, because Joytoy uses some of the worst plastics in the industry.

>>11495550
>I didn't bring up Joytoy. Two other people were talking about them
That was a week ago. And one of those anons got banned, and the other was talking about how they had increased the height of their figures so that the new figures didn't scale with the old ones, so you didn't clarify a fucking thing. In fact, you repeated his argument a few posts later. The only reason you posted was because you saw an excuse to start ranting about Joytoy yet again.
And all because another anon mentioned Joytoy, you think it's a good reason to spam images of Joyoy figures for fucking days?
For FUCKING DAYS, Subby.

>you no longer want to talk about toys anymore, but i guess that was bound to happen when the WH40k thread has been dying
I want to talk about McFarlane toys instead of reading unhinged spam accusing me of being a "Joytoy shill" all because I told you to get back on topic.
There is a 40k thread active right now, so if I gave a fuck about the franchise in the slightest, I would be discussing the toys there.
>So much mad
You are so mad about Joytoy that you have hundreds of photos saved so you can post them while crying about them.
You are so mad about "Joytoy shills" that you'll accuse someone of being one for telling you to get back on topic.
How badly did the anons in the 40k thread mindfuck you for you to end up like this?

pic of you obviously never being wrong, because Joytoy totally hasn't changed up the scale nearly every single year, and this totally isn't fucking over their fans

Your defensive posts for Joytoy are stupidly transparent, but i guess you're too retarded to realize how obvious it is to everyone. Your needing to switch from "making shit up to defend Joytoy" to "STOP TALKING ABOUT JOYTOY" posts still amounts to defending Joytoy like a shill. If you actually wanted to stop discussion about Joytoy, you could just stop replying to my post altogether. If my posts were actually irrelevant to the discussion, they'd be ignored like the cat post.

But you won't do that, because your job is to defend Joytoy and you can't actually prove me wrong with facts, hence making shit up and screeching at me.

Speaking of which, i think this is one of the biggest differences between old /toy/ and new /toy/. People used to post way more pictures of their toys and people used to be able to prove people wrong, even if people were shitting on other brands back then as much as today. So posters back then were actually authentic. Today, people like you don't take photos, like you don't own any toys, and just sound like shills because of that.

The fact that you can't stop derailing a thread about McFarlane being a greedy sack of shit is what is stupidly transparent.
>If you actually wanted to stop discussion about Joytoy, you could just stop replying to my post altogether
No, I'll keep the thread bumped so that as many people can see what a rip-off merchant Todd is. If you don't want this thread on the front page, you can stop sperging about Joytoy. It's not like anybody will take anything you say about Joytoy seriously because of your extensive history of being the board's biggest lolcow, so I don't know why you bother.
>People used to post way more pictures of their toys
I guess not many people want their photos to end up in the HDD of a schizo ESL with an ax to grind.

>>11495950

I'm obviously not who you think I am, which you'd be able to tell if you didn't have tunnel vision due to your schizophrenia which causes you to think that everyone that is tired of your shit is a boogeyman from the 40k thread.
Anyway, it's nearly 4am and I'm done for the night, so feel free to post another 50 images of Joytoy while I sleep because you are an off topic schizo that wants to distract people from the actual topic of the thread. If only you knew how insane you look in the eyes of the rest of the board, but that would actually require you to have some self awareness.

The next $60 DC Multiverse figure with a Fallout skin takes center stage.

Shocked they are actually putting New Vegas on the box, even when they refrence New Vegas they often omit the name or act cute about it the the NCR Ranger armor just being called 'ranger armor' in 76, and it just being some farmer's work gear in the Amazon show.

Yeah, you're probably the Mythic Legion shill who needs to deny that 4H doesn't have the worst QC in the toy industry, but that certainly isn't stopping you from coming here to do damage control for Joytoy, huh?

IT's funny how you want to call me crazy, yet i've only responded with real facts, to people, adding to the discussion in this thread. Whereas you've only made shit up just to argue and deny problems, which is actual mental illness.

Pic is what happens in the real world, because Joytoy has nearly as bad as a rep as the Mythic Legions line does for 4H, because they both use brittle as fuck plastics and refuse to pay up for higher quality stuff.

>>11496821

Probably because sane people don't have folders full of pics of toys that they are assblasted about and make 100 posts spamming them in a thread about a completely different company.

How unfortuate for that thread, because that means you're screeching "subby" at some random person then. But this shouldn't be surprising, since you're insane.
There's only two threads i go to regularly that literally cry about me: Mythic Legion and Warhammer 40k, because the lines regularly release failure after failure... which is why the Mythic Legion General no longer exists, because most of the fans ragequit after 4H's mocked their fans for complaining about the shitty QC.

Sorry you get so upset over talking about toys and why people have been avoiding Joytoy's line.

>>11496415
We're back!

Now eventually you do plan to have demons in your, in your Doom line, right? Hello, Todd?

>>11496927
>Those elbows

>>11496875
>There's only two threads i go to regularly that literally cry about me
Admitting that you regularly shitpost in threads for toylines you don't buy toys from anymore isn't helping your claim that you aren't an insane piece of shit troll.
But no, I didn't say that everyone cries about you. Just that you act like a retard shitting it up. And then everyone realises who they are dealing with once you post a pic you've posted 20 times already, or fail to contain your acute autism after 3 posts. And then you get ignored until the next thread and you manage to keep your spergery in check...for maybe a couple of posts.
I always see your bullshit in the DC thread as well, but most of the regulars there also know to ignore your tism. The Star Wars general tells you to fuck off whenever you raise your misshapen head. And Marvel general. And everyone remembers your campaign against SHF, or when you were trying to claim Revoltech ripped off McFarlane. But feel free to think I'm from some thread you troll regularly when the fact is that most regulars are likely to be tired of you shitting up most generals at one point or another for the last 15+ years.
Is there a single general on this board that you aren't guilty of shitting up with your autism in the last decade and a half? The only anons that don't hate you are the ones that haven't been here long enough to see how much your bullshit ruins the board. You're the reason we can't have a sticky on the board.
But feel free to keep spamming your Joytoy folder like the insane mongoloid that you are.

>>11497058

I think you are overselling how little energy and effort it takes to shake up a slow board. 4chan is just going the way of the BBS systems of old however this new world everyone is very much more tight lipped and restrained to just share their communities anymore so sadly as these places get slower as more and more of us find better alternatives, that just leaves the posters no one wants here thus further speeding up the exodus of everyone worth talking to. I wager within a year's time these places will be near unreadable garbled messes as they give up to just keep threads going no matter the cost.

Can we please stop giving yous to stubby and talk about joytoy warhammer. I want to talk about mcfarlane fallout figures. Gonna buy the power armor and ncr range.

>>11496875
You are a nounce.

>>11497139
Does Fallout really have that much of a hold on your life that you are actually considering giving $60 to someone for toys that are worth $25 tops? Do you remember when Bethesda bought it and turned it into Elder Scrolls with guns?

>>11497170
why are you such a joyless fag? if you're so smart just 3d print your own it's 2025 already the Technology is there and advances have been made

>>11497171
Todd made me this way. Both of them.

>>11497065
>8 hours straight arguing with /co/.
Wasn't it closer to 18 hours. I think it was on Thanksgiving or some shit because not even his family wants him ruining their holidays. I also left out his rampant shitposting in the Mezco threads, and his sperging about being right about Figma Robocop, which might have been one of the few times he was right, but he acted like a such an obnoxious faggot that nobody wanted to acknowledge it. He is too retarded to realise there is such a thing as a sore winner, and considering what a sack of shit he is, I'm not surprised most people ignore when he has his broken clock moments.
>>11497116
The worst thing is that everywhere else is filled with cliquey faggots. Even back in the old toy forums of the 90s, there were plenty of faggots that acted like top shit because they joined a few years earlier, the same way Subby brags about being an oldfag as if spending two decades with your brain stuck in mid 2000s /b/tard mode is something to be proud of
>>11497139
Sure. How about that pleather? Honestly I'd be excited if it was another company that got the license, like maybe Jada. I will probably end up buying the Plamatea power armor.

>>11496927
There's something weird going on with the hips on that figure

>>11497188
Pleather sucks, but it's mcfartlane. If I'm desperate, I can salvage the head and torso to customize for a 1:12 figure, maybe cut the jacket off at the waist area and glue real leather for the bottom half? Hard to justify this customization for a 60 dollar scam though.

>>11497170
I just follow rule of cool. Power Armor and soldiers in helmets gas masks, and trench coats are cool. I agree they're 25-30 dollars tops, but mcfartlane ain't gonna lower the price, and I'm not going to test clearance chicken with a beloved franchise like fallout. Classic doom guy was never on sale or clearance, these fallout figures will 100% be scalped. I don't think there will be any other toylines that will make fallout figures that isn't 3d printed fragile slop.

>>11497229
Then the asking price will only be higher next time, because when you pay $60 you affirm it is worth $60 to you. How high could Todd go to make you not buy? $100? $150? $200? $250? Ask yourself.

>>11497290
Even if I don't participate in purchasing these cool-looking 2 slop figures, someone else will simply take my place. My non-purchase will not affect mcfartlane and his pricing in the slightest. He's already won by releasing 2 beloved character designs in his 60-dollar scam. I can understand Lucy being a failure, but the power armor and the NCR ranger will be sold out, with or without my purchase. And I intend to have them in my hands instead of moaning and crying about not having them. I'm sorry, I know they're 25$ figures upcharged to 60, but what the fuck can I do? I want them, and hundreds of other normies do too, and will purchase them.

>you're insane if you don't come to threads to circlejerk!
You realize this thread itself is nothing but bait, right?
The line isn't even out yet they're calling it shelf warmers.

You love to bitch at others, yet you're the actual shitposter. You hold grudges against people for years, making completely off topic posts, just to air out your butthurt in public.
Nothing to do with toys, just rambling about how much you hate some random person online, because he doesn't like that a company like Joytoy constantly changes the sizes of their toys, almost every single year. Or how 4H overcharges for their Mythic Legion figures, despite having less articulation than a toyline from 2004. How dare random person online have a problem toyline on a toy board.

Can you imagine getting so upset about someone expressing opinion, that they've held a grudge against a person for years and years, and need to make up entire stories about them and other brands as a coping mechanism?
Mental illness

You know what isn't insane and is perfectly normal to hate? Getting metallic brown paint on toy that costs 5x more than collector lines that do gold paint well. Pic is actually reality, proof of what I'm talking about. Something you can never post, because everything you say is made up bullshit.
>b-b-but why are you bitching about this 2 years later?!
... because they continue fucking up their gold paint to this day, because they haven't bothered to fix their shit yet? Pic is just one of dozens of figures they fucked up and continue fucking up.

Imagine being a fan of something, wanting to buy it, but the maker of those toys fucking up their release wave after wave, month after month. Only shills think you shouldn't complain, because they don't actually care about these toys.

BTW, i like how you don't want to admit what thread you're from, because you know how insane you are. This is also why you won't tell me how many years you've been holding a grudge against me.

>>11497470

>you're insane if you don't come to threads to circlejerk
Oh no, I am critical of plenty of toylines that I buy, but the thing is, I actually buy those toylines. I don't have folders filled with 100s of pictures of toys I don't buy and hit max character ranting about the same fucking bullshit 150 times per thread.
>You hold grudges against people for years
You've been spamming Joytoy pics because of your near half decade grudge against that thread. How long has your grudge against the Mythic Legions thread gone on for? How long did your grudge against SHF go on for? For fucks sake, I saw you bring up your feud from over a decade ago with the Figma thread over Robocop a few weeks back.
You shit up the entire board acting like a fucking retard holding grudges against every thread that disagrees with you, and you expect us not to notice what a giant pile of shit you are and call you out for your obvious attempts to bait the 40k anons.
WHICH YOU ARE STILL DOING IN THIS VERY POST I AM REPLYING TO.
>making completely off topic posts
This is a thread about McFarlane. All I've done is point out that you were being an off topic schizo fuckwit, and instead of ceasing your faggotry, you just keep doubling down and spamming more Joytoy pics.
>BTW, i like how you don't want to admit what thread you're from
No, I told you to guess. The only reason that you wouldn't want to guess is because it will reveal how many threads you actually shit up.

>>11497748
>NO U! NO U! NO U!
is this all you can do? nothing but bullshit and trying to turn everything i say around back to me.

Again, you can't actually back up anything you say. Not any of your claims about toys. Not anything about me. You talk in generalities because if you said anything specific, you'd be found out right away. I mean, you already got found out you're a third worlder because you need to use AI to write your posts for you, because their aint no hiding your limited vocab and plagiarism check

And if you're really an oldfag, tell me who the tripfags were for the Transformer threads (figma robocop time, nothing after 2012) and a popular porn meme. I almost never posted in the Transformer threads and almost never clicked on them, but since they were so plentiful back then, it was impossible not seeing certain names.
I'd also like for you to state why /toy/ would have porn memes too back in the day. An actual oldfags would know. And i don't mean hotglue or rape woody/dog.

>ib4 you don't need to prove shit to me
just like every claim you make, because nothing you say is true.

You know what is true?
Joytoy being too cheap to use gold paint or not knowing what gold actually looks like, because Chna is that poor.
pic of how their "gold" paint blends in with wood.

Again, it's crazy to say someone isn't allowed to bitch about $150 toys doing a worse job at paint than $20 toys. There's no grudge if they constantly do this too, because a grudge literally has to be something that happened in the past and Joytoy still fucks up the paint on their current figures.

Lol retard, you don't know shit about the subject matter because Horus's metallic armour high-lights have always been brass/bronze, not gold. Why the fuck are you so obsessed with WOOD and gold anyway? It's fucking weird how often you bring that shit up.

Man, this idiot really gets hung up on this shit huh.

>>11497890
He's had a WOOD-fetish for years now. With JT he's always comparing their metallic paints to wood, but I remember he used to compare Amazing Yamaguchi Carnage to "treebark"(something about too much texture in the sculpt or some shit) lmao.

>>11497888
You should embed viruses and shit in them or something so he nukes his pc trying to save them

>>11497888
>highlights
Sure is retard who doesn't know anything about painting or Warhammer.
It's actually called SHADING, where they paint the recessed/shadowed areas in a darker color. There's probably silver there too, to make the edges look BRIGHTER than the gold painted parts.

What Joytoy does is that they glanced at Games Workshop color guides for the Space Marines and thought the 5-10 colors that is listed is too much and used the base colors only.
So no bright gold metallic paint for them (that would make sense if you only have the budget for a single color), because Joytoy is too cheap and doesn't actually understand what gold is supposed to look like.

Joytoy has no understanding of how color guides work, because they literally do not give a shit, hence a children's toy company like Hasbro making budget children toys with more accurate gold paint than the $150 adult collector toys Joytoy is trying to sell to a dying fanbase.

I mean, shit, I actually give Joytoy a pass on their normal space marines not using gold, because maybe their shit is just dingly. But for the god-like warlords who have a thousand servants who maintain their personal equipment? That's as fucked up as defending a company cheaping out on a $150 figure that's only 8" tall.

>>11497954
holy shit dude, you just proved as knowledgable about Warhammer as the Warhammer thread. Just like you, the Joytoy employees there had no idea about any of the characters or models until i corrected them 3 years ago.
Again, Games Workshop has guides that tell you what colors you should use to paint the model that you keep posting and what Joytoy ignorantly seems to do is use a single color or base color as the ONLY color. So their toys don't even look gold.

Or maybe Joytoy really gives no shit about being accurate to the source material and uses the cheapest metallic gold paint they have and calls it a day, just like Kenner in the 90s. They can't even make an effort for their $150 toys, whereas companies like Hasbro making budget children toys can.

Pic again proves what I say.

>>11497995
Kind of a failure then, given the fact i didn't post to OP, but to some random post about Joytoy's figures not being in 1:18 scale. And the first reply to me was about some guy who doesn't even know anything about Halo. Random as shit.

>>11498610
C-3PO is a protocol droid made of polished brass, like brass instruments are made of (IRL made of chromed fibreglass IIRC 'cuz a full suit of brass would be expensive as fuck and incredibly heavy). The Primarchs and Custodes are master warriors wearing ancient, battered suits of armour with trim made from or plated/gilded with gold or similar metal- the Custodes, if memory serves, wear suits made from aurumite, which looks like gold but isn't. Their armour has taken enough punishment to turn C-3PO into scrap a trillion times over. Of course it's not gonna be mirror-shiny.
>B-B-But "Goldenrod"!
It's a nickname. 'Cuz brass looks similar to gold to the untrained eye, and "brassrod" sounds weird.
But please, show how good the gold paint is on McFarlane's 40K figures. I'll wait.

>>11498610
>he's still flipping out after being caught-out out in his retard assumption about Horus's colors
lmao, there's no getting out of it woodboy.

>>11498381
I hate to say it, but I will be one of the sheeps preordering the power armor and ncr ranger scams. I'll be at least satisfied if they don't go on clearance in the future. I doubt they will because of the popularity of Fallout, Classic Doomguy was never on clearance.

>>11498610
>Kind of a failure then, given the fact i didn't post to OP, but to some random post about Joytoy's figures
The bait lures the dumb fish into the thread, but you need to jig the rod for the fish to take the bait. Looks like OP caught a 350lb mineo.

>>11498638
Oof, this is almost as big of a cope as the guy who knows nothing about Warhammer minis.
So basically, you're saying that because all characters that have armor and plating that resembles gold don't actually use gold, that means Joytoy can use the chintziest, shitty non-gold paint so it looks nothing like what the character uses?

Are you shills all 8 years old? Holy fuck, your logic doesn't make any sense at all.

Who cares if brass and aurumite aren't actually gold, because their appearance is still gold, hence C3P0 being called goldenrod and Games Workshop's paint guides telling you to paint it GOLD. The fucking custodians are demi-gods playing royal bodyguards for the emperor of millions of worlds, yet there's nothing royal looking about their 3rd place bronze colored armor. Utter failure on Joytoy's part, not just for them, but fucking up the primarchs too, who all have gold highlights on their armor too.

Hasbro is a children's toy company making budget toys and they still do a better job than Joytoy does, even at their worse.

How can you defend a toy company charging $50-150 for toys aimed at adult collectors that have worse paint jobs than $8 children toys?

>ib4 because the painting uses blacks and browns, that means it's okay for Joytoy to paint them brown too
shit eater logic

>>11498815
nta but the joytoy looks better. I wouldn't buy it though because who wants to spend $50-$150 bucks for 1/18th scale.

>>11498815

>>11485197
>>11485232
McFarlane just made poor business decisions all around. No company becomes successful because of scarcity of goods that consumers want to buy.

Someone like Taylor Swift or Coldplay can profit from bootlegs of their concert films, or from high ticket prices due to scarcity of concert tickets, but an act like the Rolling Stones can go out into their 70s and probably their 80s and perform decades old songs and still sell out a concert hall/arena, etc.

McFarlane isn't even re-releasing popular 'scarce' figures the way a comic book company does a second or third print release of a popular floppy, or the way a studio like Marvel or Sony might benefit - the Tobey Spider-Man movies are about to be re-released in theaters for a third time this fall, and this re-release will probably make several million dollars. Marvel wouldn't want to make and release a new movie and just make say $2-4M, but old films, films that are already paid for, that need minimal promotion to still sell out theaters? That's just extra dosh on the bottom line.

McFarlane isn't doing or getting any of that.

He's just an idiot thinking that helping scalpers make money or disappointing and - worse - annoying consumers and fans - will somehow make him rich.

And he's not just wrong, he's a stupid idiot.

>>11498815
The Custodes figure looks far closer to the art than either of those C-3POs, and MUCH closer to the official miniature paintjobs. You know, the miniatures. The main thing 40K is known for. You might know this if you weren't a secondary whose knowledge of the game comes entirely from loretubers.
>All gold is mirror-finish chrome and there is only one shade of it!
Retard.

Now now, go easy. Don't forget he's also got an out of date 4th edition codex that he found at Thriftbooks.

He destroyed the wallets of millions.

The New Vegas figure is reusing the legs of the DCMV Constantine/Todd figure. Reuse in a SIXTY DOLLAR FIGURE. $60 DC Multiverse here we come.

Jesus christ, Todd, get your shit together.
Also is it just me or are those trigger fingers extremely long? Could just be a necessary evil to get him to actually hold his weapons, but still.

I would be ashamed to work for this company.

>>11499425
I do imagine its because of the variety of guns and their shapes that the trigger fingers are so long. The fingers are probably soft PVC. The knife will look ridiculous in one of them though and I dont see a normal gripping hand for the knife

Not looking good for Elite Edition. It's 25 minutes and they aren't sold out yet.

by the way regardless if these sell out or not no one else is gonna make Bethesda action figures

I haven't pre-ordered from McFarlane before.

>>11499533
The order page said January. That's all I know anon.

I'm confused as to why people actually chose to buy the more expensive versions of the exact same figure. Can't even use shipping as an excuse as its free. Are humans that dumb?

>>11499327
how? who the fuck is going to buy a 12" 5POA piece of shit?

>>11499543
>Are humans that dumb?
This is a thread where people are posting screenshots after preordering $60 McFarlane figures with warped weapons in the promo images and sloppy low effort weathering.
You already have the answer to your question.

>>11499447
McFarlane should have the license removed for this.

>>11499563
It is unusual that they are allowed to reuse DC parts for other IP. As far as I know Marvel Legends material has never appeared in Star Wars or GI Joe, etc even when it could've been used. Even for little accessories. But maybe the DC and Marvel licenses are different.

Anyone got the tally on if McFarlane won or lost the day? I can tell EE lost.

Order from Walmart, 10 dollars cheaper and free shipping
dont be fucking stupid and regret this later on.

>>11499643
You'll regret it when you see the delivery date vs the more expensive stores

>>11499652
i pay less, and i get to see the reviews with enough time to cancel if its shit? i dont see the loss here.

>>11499663
>with enough time to cancel if its shit?
Anon, it's a McFarlane and uses known DCMV legs. Might as well cancel now.

>>11499671
>a McFarlane and uses known DCMV legs
they're fine legs with good range of motion. you have one and know that, right?

McFarlane Toys has gone literally insane

>>11499275
>NO U! And Joytoy's shit really does taste like chocolate!
sure is 8 year old being a contrarian.

Pic of how even a Mexican can paint gold better than Joytoy can.

Also, check out how tiny Joytoy's figures are. $150 for a 7" figure that has a worse paint job than a Hasbro children's budget toyline.

>>11498851
i seriously hope you're not saying bronze = gold. Maybe you like the design better? And yes, $50 for a 4.8" figure is insane, especially when you consider how bad Joytoy's QC is. But Warhammer fans are used to overpaying for everything Warhammer.

>>11499752

>>11499754
>i need to ignore that there have been 291 posts defending Joytoy with obvious lies and denials, screeching that everything else is worse, because i got proven wrong
Sure is shit eater who can no longer bear eating Joytoy's shit and pretending it tastes like chocolate.

pic again proves how a children's toy company can make budget toys with more accurate gold paint than a collector toy company charging $150... but what can you expect from a Chinese company?

>>11499783
...That C-3PO looks nothing like the movie prop's polished brass/chrome finish. By contrast, the Primarchs are dead ringers for the studio paintjobs, which is what they're based on, rather than your schizophrenic headcanon wherein all gold is chrome. Sorry that hurts your feelings, subjectgook.

>>11499752
Nah I'm not saying anything about the color accuracy, just saying the design and paint for me is preferable to C3PO. Like if I could have one of them for free I'd take the Joytoy over the C3PO

>>11499783
You look like you touch kids

>>11499786
>dead ringer for studio paint job
>Joytoy using single paint application that isn't even gold for the entirety of the figure = WHOA! ITS JUST LIKE A STUPIO PAINT JORB!
LMAO
You're a fuckwit shill who's never looked at anything Warhammer outside of Joytoy's catalogues

Pic of Games Wokrshop's own paint guides
>ib4 it's not a paint guide specifically for the character thus there's no way that character would have the same type of paint job, thus Joytoy is allowed to use the brown metallic paint instead of gold paint

... nevermind the gold armor is supposed to be reflective, and the only reason GAmes workshop aren't is because they're using shitty acrylic paints that could never have the same gold luster as their own source material. As proven in multiple photos, even a budget children's toy company like Hasbro can make C3P0's with that golden luster.
You can't even imagine a Chinese toy company like Joytoy making the extra effort as Hasbro for their $150 toys? No, you don't, thus your low standards, where you accept 3rd place colors instead of 1st place colors.

glad to see you're not insane.

...The miniatures are less than a third the size of the action figures. Most of the highlighting is done on the gold parts on the studio paintjobs 'cuz, you know, they're tiny. If you literally upscaled the exact same process to 1/18 it would look ridiculous. JoyToy's metallic paintjobs replicate the way the 'eavy metal schemes look perfectly well.
>they're using shitty acrylic paints that could never have the same gold luster as their own source material.
I hate to break it to you, but the miniatures and accompanying game ARE the source material. The fluff, novels, art etc are literally promotional material for toy soldiers. If you weren't a braindead secondary you might understand this.
>B-B-BUT I WANTED AN ADAPTATION OF THE ART BASED ON THE MINIATURES NOT THE MINIATURES THEMSELVES
Too bad, and not JoyToy's fault.
Didn't you LARP as the owner of a manufacturing company with modelling experience as well as a totally hardcore 40K fan? Why don't you start your own collectible company and approach GW for the license? I'm sure you won't get laughed at by the entire company.

>retard who doesn't understand that the same painting process is literally used for larger scales
I don't know if it's your low IQ and your shitty ESL skills or you think you're being clever by just making contrarian statements over and over, but everything you're saying is completely retarded.
You're completely ignorant like an 8 year old child.

You're the one that claimed that Joytoy's paint job is studio quality and now you're saying they're incompatible? You make a ridiculous lie and then you contradict yourself with another lie in your next post.

Competely retarded, all because you need to defend Joytoy's shitty paint jobs, awful scaling issues, because children toy companies making budget children toys do a better job at it for 1/5th the price.

>still pretending everything is based on the miniatures, despite the figures not sculpted in the same style as the miniatures
>the source material isn't source material unless it supports Joytoy's fuck ups
amazing contradictory your logic is to defend a chinese company who makes the same cheapo mistakes as budget children toys from the 90s

And this is probably my last post until SDCC ends. Enjoy making more shit up to pretend Joytoy's shit is the best chocolate ever while I'm gone

>You're the one that claimed that Joytoy's paint job is studio quality
I said it was replicating the look of the studio paintjobs on the miniatures. Learn to read, ESL gook.
>and now you're saying they're incompatible?
No, I said you don't need to simulate highlighting as much on a larger scale figure because, well, it's bigger. If you understood how lighting worked maybe you'd get that.
>Joytoy's shitty paint jobs
JoyToy literally does some of the best paintjobs in the industry and no amount of crying about "NOOOO THEY PAINTED GOLD INSTEAD OF GOLD" is going to change that.
>awful scaling issues
This has already been addressed but I know you'll just dismiss anything anyone says as "lies" so instead I'm just going to remind you of your attempt to make McFarlane's shockingly badly scaled line look less so by trying to make the Marines look bigger with a camera angle and tilted feet.
>because children toy companies making budget children toys do a better job at it for 1/5th the price.
Citation needed.
>still pretending everything is based on the miniatures
Because they are.
> despite the figures not sculpted in the same style as the miniatures
Black and white thinking is a sign of autism, you know.
>the source material isn't source material unless it supports Joytoy's fuck ups
The game and miniatures are the primary source. You, being a secondary pleb, wouldn't understand.
>And this is probably my last post until SDCC ends
Good. Let's hope your attempts to hit on a small boy get you arrested or publicly executed, you disgusting boy-molesting Korean fruitcake.

I didn't know that you could paint.
