I don't understand this mindset. Why buy them at all if you don't plan on keeping them? I mean, it's not like they're going to become toxic or drumble to dust as soon as Mattel takes over. I still have my DC Icons, that I still enjoy, despite that line ending years ago. This is the main reason I didn't buy into McF, because I knew I wouldn't truly like them or want to keep them. So I only got a handful. I feel bad for the people who feel obligated to dump a line as soon as a new one comes out.

New Eternia Masterverse has secretly worse articulation. No butterfly joints, waist cut instead of a ballpeg and now single jointed female arms (the NE Evil Lyn for example). That said, they might at least not be ridiculously priced like ol' Toddums is doing right now with literal turds priced at $35 or even $60

If you didn't like Todd's style, why'd you buy them in the first place? That was also my main turn off from the line so I skipped it and stuck with imports for my DC collection. I'd love for a Marvel Legends tier DC line, and I'm fine holding off until something like that exists. I have gotten a few McFarlane figs here and there but I'm not going to outright trash them just because Mattel got the license.

Honestly it does kind of feel like trend followers. It really feels like most of the posters here only have cursory knowledge of these characters. That's fine and all, but I genuinely don't get why people will invest all this money into shit they don't actually care about. Feels like people trying to fit in without actually putting in the effort, not that there is any, to actually sit down and read a fucking comic book. I post my toys from time to time, but as you said, there are schizos I'm these threads that will outright obsess about you just because they recognize your background or something. I get it from some lunatic in the Marvel thread. I really wish toy collecting didn't have so many mentally ill people in it. It's embarrassing to share a hobby with some of you.

I'm too lazy to get risers. I had the perfect opportunity at the end of last year when I moved and just didn't think about doing it until after I got my collection all displayed again. And at this point, it's just too annoying to take it all down and set it back up again with risers. I only take everything down four or five times a year to dust. It's been way too long, so I do actually need to do that sooner than later. That pic is from not long after I set it back up. It's pretty bad now.

On a side note, having my collection and all my shit stored away in boxes for a couple of months was kind of depressing. My collection was the first thing I packed for my move and was the last thing I unpacked so it was taken down for like three months. Shit sucked, my den being in chaos as I packed and unpacke made me anxious.

New theories to attempt to explain this:

-if she was finalized before the change to move away from wires but NML Batman was not. This theory could be confirmed in time if no figures after her still have wires.

-if Mattel specifically contacted DC and demanded they stop approving McFarlanes with a wired cape of specific big name characters Mattel expects to make (Batman, Superman, etc.) This would of course be to stifle competition from recent past products against Mattel's line next year, but if they didn't include side characters Mattel has no plans yet to do, then it'd explain why Steph can still get a wired cape. If this is the case then it could perhaps be confirmed in time if big name characters like Batman and Superman no longer receive wires but side characters still do.

I really don't get why some figures are so easy to get in Canada/Europe but are a nightmare to find in the US. Like, McFarlane's team have to be idiots to short sending Supergirl figures to the US where they sell out instantly but send a lot to Europe where they will peg-warm.

Year One Batman is another. It's easily available in Canada, but in the US it's near impossible to get as they are scalped immediately. Is it just that Canada and Europe don't have a lunatic scalper culture like the US? Are scalpers selling toys to pay for healthcare?

That does make some sense. Still a shitty way of ending the line. Holy shit, if that means that Mullet Supes doesn't have a wire, I'm going to lose it

>if Mattel specifically contacted DC and demanded they stop approving McFarlanes with a wired cape of specific big name characters Mattel expects to make
That seems highly unlikely because that would mean Mattel trying to influence the competition.
The former option is a lot more likely since McFarlane could be cutting costs at this point to churn out the last couple of figures

Buying licenses is all about reducing competition. Whether WB/DC would agree to meddle with an existing license holder to benefit a known future license holder is another matter though and is a potential stumbling block for the theory. Depends on whether WB/DC have scruples or not.
Anonymous No.11489881
>>11489871
I don't think they send "a lot", it's just that despite the lower volumes, the European market still has less people preordering the figures immediately and in total less scalpers (even though it does get shitty in cases like CE Wonder Woman).
Be sure that the figures don't pegwarm but they're still available for a few weeks till they sell out. Hawkgirl was definitely online for like two weeks till she sold out here

>>11489875
>Buying licenses is all about reducing competition
Yeah but you can't force the company holding the license to reduce their quality, no company would do that and to some extent, it could be viewed as market manipulation.
Plus, bendy wires seem like such a small thing to be upset about in terms of Mattel.

I'm leaning toward the McFarlane theory because Todd has been constantly going out of his way to fuck fans in the ass the entire time

I can believe Kara was too drunk to pay attention to any serious discussion being had at any given time. Also would she really have been old enough to be in on such discussion?

Humans being able to create a pocket dimension being explained in 15 seconds and multiple characters knowing about such a thing was the most ridiculous thing. People talking about something that is light years ahead of modern science like it's nothing in a live action movie stretches suspension of disbelief for me even in a comic book movie with giant kaiju. If they had said they stole the tech from some other civilization or the like then I could buy it but it seemed like Lex and his people made it in house.

It’s a comic book movie. Sci-fi movies pull that kind of shit all the time. We are in so deep with comic book movies that Tony stark told his AI to create time travel and two seconds later it had. There’s no reason to have a chip on your shoulder with how they explained it in Superman. They went out of the way to say how retardedly irresponsible and dangerous it was every time it was even turned on.

Now that I check, the promo images show Troika might have a wire, but these could also just be prototype pictures taken awhile ago before the mass produced version which could come without one like NML.

If Troika does come with a wire, it's absolutely senseless why NML doesn't have one, since Troika is a cheaper figure and is also a Batman figure.

I love Iron Man 1 and even 2 to some extent but the GotG trilogy is the best trilogy in the entire MCU. Despite all the unnecessary humour, Gunn is the one director capable of capturing the comic book style both in story as well as in action form. Don't really like his humour that much but if it's necessary to get decent comicbook movies, I'll take it. Also, the characters are mostly true to their comicbook selves. No matter how much I love MoS, that's what the DCEU lacked for the most part

I did waste $37+ after taxes for the Hoult Lex from Target because it's an excellent likeness and he'll scale with my other Mattel/McFart and DCD figures of Luthor.

When your company is even losing the fans who do updates about your toy releases, you're in trouble. McFarlane toys is likely bleeding customers just because they can't find or order the toys they want from them anymore.

>it means you probably didn't really want it
Genuinely curious whether you're simply too stupid to understand the basic concept of people not wanting to pay scammers or whether you're intentionally trolling at this point. I'd rather pay 35 bucks for a figure from an online store than 35 bucks on Ebay from someone who bought a figure for 25 bucks just to resell it.

While I agree that some people here are autistic about certain things, this is a matter of principle to most people and it's perfectly understandable.

>anything that's sub $50, isn't even on my radar anymore
Because you're straight up dumb. Just because you're careless in the way you spend your money doesn't mean other people are as well. In the long run, people paying any price without paying attention to the quality of figures is bad practice. You acting like quality ain't a huge problem with McFarlane figures isn't going to make the issue disappear

>I just had to pay $320 for and emergency plumbing issue and I'm not sperging out about it
What does that even have to do with anything? A plumbing issue isn't a hobby, you fucking moron

And it's clear as day that you're ignorant and simply too unintelligent to form a coherent thought worthy of a discussion. If most people here were living with their parents, they wouldn't be bitching about the prices of these figures. The bitching is probably more due to the fact that people already have bills to pay and now figures are getting more expensive. Grow up

I can get with that.
Never really moaned about price increases because I always evaluate whether the price equals the personal value I get from the figure. The only figure where I didn't thought the price was adequate was Hawkgirl because for 38€, she should have been a better figure. Then again, I'm also prone to comparing lines. If I'm not getting cool accessories like multiple hands and effect pieces, I'll be more prone to not spending more money on figures. If I were CEO of a toy company, I would take this into consideration

I'll reiterate, if Todd increasing the price a few dollars is enough to deter you, then you didn't want the toy that much anyway and you're better off just not getting it. I don't know why everyone got so butt flustered about that.

>>11491924
>Because you're straight up dumb.
Or maybe, I make enough money that $50 just isn't a lot to me. I'm not even what I consider rich, but the way some of you act about a $4 price increase makes me think you're at poverty level.

>You acting like quality ain't a huge problem with McFarlane figures isn't going to make the issue disappear
I don't even buy McFarlane figures since, as you said, the quality isn't there. Not detracting anyone who does, but see what I said above.

>What does that even have to do with anything? A plumbing issue isn't a hobby, you fucking moron
It was a several hundred dollar expense I didn't foresee needing to pay. I'm just saying, the price differences in these toys we're discussing is literally chump change to anyone with an actual salary.

The assumption I made, that you all seemingly fail to grasp, is that they live with their parents because they don't have any money. If they did, they wouldn't be sobbing about a less than $20 price difference. I'm not advocating to pay scalpers, but I'm just pointing out the way some of you act over $5 is unreal, and if you're that hard on for cash, you probably shouldn't be wasting it on toys. Back when I was broke I wasn't spending money on toys or vidya, or anything like that. I only started buying stuff when I got a job that could pay all my bills, and pay for my hobbies.

Had you put it that way from the get go, my initial reply would have been completely different. I mean that's the case for basically anything people buy. If price increases put you off, you didn't want the product that much.
What I won't agree on however is that people should accept any price thrown at them when the price increase is not reasonable and in fact the product gets progressively worse.
Best example would be the No Man's Land Batman. No wired cape when the last few Batman figures had wired capes should be a valid reason why someone would not get the figure, even despite the fact that the figure has an okayish price

>Or maybe, I make enough money that $50 just isn't a lot to me. I'm not even what I consider rich, but the way some of you act about a $4 price increase makes me think you're at poverty level.
I think we discussed this in an earlier thread, just because one has enough money doesn't mean one should pay zero attention to the development of a company. I have more than enough money to collect ten lines at once but I won't spend a single buck when I deem a figure unworthy of my money due to quality-related issues. Doesn't mean that other people won't complain when figures of the same quality level face a price increase. The main reason for this is that every one or two years, companies try to sneak their price increases through the lens of "but you get more!" to the consumers

>the price differences in these toys we're discussing is literally chump change to anyone with an actual salary
Still apples and oranges. I'll pay 2k bucks without batting an eyelash for furniture or a vacation but I will in fact be stingy with figures when it's a certain line that is prone to messing with the quality all the time

>but I'm just pointing out the way some of you act over $5 is unreal
Except that it's always "just 5 bucks" every single time. Do you forget that the line started out with 20 dollar figures and is now at 28-40 dollars per figure? People are not complaining about one single price increase here, it's a systematic effort by Todd to alienate his core audiences and it's working

Fair enough. I'll admit I didn't specify and can see how you'd see my post as advocating to pay scalpers. My bad.

>What I won't agree on however is that people should accept any price thrown at them when the price increase is not reasonable and in fact the product gets progressively worse.
I never said this. All I'm talking about is a couple dollar price increase. For me, personally, something like even $10-$15 more isn't a huge deal to me. I'm not saying people should pay $60 for ToddSlop, but the bitching about the prices going from $23 to $26 is fucking stupid. Even from the line's initial $20 to the current $26 isn't a big deal.

>I think we discussed this in an earlier thread, just because one has enough money doesn't mean one should pay zero attention to the development of a company.

I agree with this. My posts are under the assumption that you actually think a line is actually good and not actually getting worse. I'm going off the assumption that the people buying these figures like Todd's style.

>Still apples and oranges. I'll pay 2k bucks without batting an eyelash for furniture or a vacation but I will in fact be stingy with figures when it's a certain line that is prone to messing with the quality all the time
I mean that's fair, like I said earlier, I'm going off the assumption that you were happy with the line or whatever. If you don't like the direction it's going, then I do understand what you're saying.

Debatable. To me, it comes off as people with menial labor jobs whining about a hobby that is intrinsically expensive. I'm sorry, I know this an unpopular opinion but, if you don't have a job where you aren't living paycheck to paycheck, you really shouldn't be wasting your money on toys/video games/what the fuck ever. I know that sounds harsh, and I do get that this job market is vastly different than the one I entered when I was younger back in the late 2000s, but it's the truth.

>I don't understand why it's such a foreign thought to you that people might have more than enough money available but still be critical on what they spend their money on
Because we're talking about action figures that are generally less than $30. When it's something that trivial, and that cheap, it's not as big of a deal in my eyes. Oh, this $25 figure isn't as perfect as it could be? Oh well, it may not be perfect but it was only $25 so whatever.

>Except that it's always "just 5 bucks" every single time. Do you forget that the line started out with 20 dollar figures and is now at 28-40 dollars per figure?
Like I said, I don't collect the line, so I forget that Todd is pushing the $40 mark with some of these figures that are in no way better than a $25 equivalent. So yeah, I will concede to that fact. I guess I'm talking more in a general sense than just about Toddslop because I see this shit all over this board and it wasn't always like this.

>People are not complaining about one single price increase here, it's a systematic effort by Todd to alienate his core audiences and it's working
I've been saying since the line started that it was shit, but no one listened. It's vindicating knowing that I was right all this time.

>Even from the line's initial $20 to the current $26 isn't a big deal.
I mean it really depends on how you go at it. I for one collect very few figures because I'm extremely selective of what I put in my shelf. I have like 8 McFarlanes in total. Some people have like 50 or 100 of them so the price increase is more noticeable. I'll still insist on people's bitching probably being more of a "You want 3 bucks more for THAT?!" type of deal rather than people genuinely not being able to afford the figures. There's too many full shelves in these threads to think that people genuinely don't have the money

>I'm going off the assumption that the people buying these figures like Todd's style.
I can obviously only speak from my POV and a couple of others' but McFarlane has been a one-step-forward-one-step-back type of deal throughout the entire line. For every improvement, there was a similar fuck-up. They get rid of side-eyes, they introduce standard bucks for every figure (instead of unique-ish ones). They introduce wired capes, they stop properly painting figures. They give us classic figures everyone wanted, they make 10 of each. Never witnessed such a Monkey's Paw line before to be honest

That's where I disagree once more. The hobby was rather affordable a couple of years back. I remember getting my Toybiz Modern Armor Iron Man for like 20€ (iirc 15 dollars at the time), it included a solid paintjob and a really great stand. Sure, yada yada inflation but companies tend to give less for a higher price nowadays.

>if you don't have a job where you aren't living paycheck to paycheck, you really shouldn't be wasting your money on toys/video games/what the fuck ever
1000% agree, I've been saying this for ages myself. Still, I don't feel like this is an issue people in these threads face. It's more that people make poor decisions by buying too many figures they don't need instead of being selective like I mentioned earlier

>I guess I'm talking more in a general sense than just about Toddslop because I see this shit all over this board and it wasn't always like this.
I think a somewhat positive example (in some cases) would be Hasbro. They increased prices but the figure quality has also started improving, plus they have been giving more accessories most of the time. Of course they are also greedy with some figures (Maximum Line) but overall, Hasbro is on a slight way of betterment. You don't see that with McFarlane

>I've been saying since the line started that it was shit
I was saying it was shit but that people should wait to see the line get improvements. Sad to see that I was mostly right on the former and only 50% right on the latter
