You already posted this last thread. Also it's bad form to take pictures with the subject in front of a light source. You need better lighting, the focus is on the back windows because they're the brightest thing in the picture.

>>11615161
Where did they say that? I don't believe them. It's ridiculous how things are just falling apart.

Still working on Dash Rendar. It's definitely put me on another SW kick.

>>11615397
Steve Evans addressed it on Instagram.

>>11615404
Man I need to get mafex boba but I feel like I should wait to see Hasbro's first which was on the rumor list. I'm hoping this time they will use Jeremy Bulloch's proportions instead of Temeura Morrison's like they did for the ROTJ one. But I can't imagine it having better paint apps than the mafex

>>11615313
Cool dio, anon

>>11615479
Not to say the Mafex's are perfect, but yeah, I hated the proportions on the BS and I assume they'll reuse a good bit of it for the next one.

>>11615498
I am kinda kicking myself for skipping the Mafex for $40.

when am i gonna get my mfkn HK-47

>>11615651
After I get my Satele Shan

>>11615651
After Sim Aloo

>>11615284 (OP)
There really are now too many Guy With Lightsabers in this line

>>11615709
>Kyle Katarn
>guy with lightsaber
He also has a cool blaster.

>>11615709
He also has questions if that helps.

>>11615709
We need more

>>11615723
sifo dyadass has such a weird design. the gold trim and hair ornaments make him seem like a prototype design of count dooku.

>>11615723
The Clone Wars is the worst thing that ever happened to Star Wars.

>>11615765
this, how much shit has spewed forth from a through away line in ep 4?

>>11615723
Making Sifo Dyas an actual guy instead of a psuedonym Palpatine himself used to order the clones was a mistake.

>>11615780
there obviously was a real syfo dyas. obi-wan knew him by name.

>>11615782
In the original script, Obi-Wan replied, "there is no jedi by that name". It would've worked better for the mystery behind the clones.

>>11615780

He was always supposed to have been a real Jedi that Palpatine disappeared and turned into a smokescreen for his plans.

Also, it's funny as fuck when Yoda's questioning Chancellor Palps about him and he pretends to not even know the name Sifo-Dyas in that CW arc.

>>11615765
The show or the era? If it's the era go fuck yourself and die

>>11616288
The show. I always hated the aesthetic then Ahaoka became the face of the franchise.

>>11616452
You can tell when George checked out and let Filoni handle everything. First couple seasons when he was more involved was non stop war kino like Ryloth, Geonosis, Christophsis, etc. Then from season 3 onward after putting more clothes on her, Filoni made every arc about Ahsoka or some other lame side character while Anakin and Obi-Wan were nowhere to be found

>>11616452
Because Disney couldn't dig into anything else. And Ahsoka had some goodwill left.

>>11616288
The era. Star Wars peaked in the dark Forces jedi knight era.

>>11616496
>some other lame side character while Anakin and Obi-Wan were nowhere to be found
I do like when they focus in other characters like Plo Koon or Kit Fisto. 2003 is better

I want a Selkath figure

>>11616616
Black Series Admiral Trench would be great
or they could throw us a bone and give us Mission Vao

Bought a droid and purge trooper. No idea what they're from but they look cool.

Got a pretty well rounded team. The droid guy feels like a sentient bulldozer, which is perfect for my archeologist crew.

The Indiana Jones line is so great for making Imperial officers.

Great. Now he's doing it in this thread. Seriously kid, fix your lighting.

>>11616770
Piss lighting

>>11616687
Go away

>posting a few pics that aren't promo shots is spamming
It's a slow board. There's less than a hundred anons who all post in multiple threads, most of which are generals. It's been this way for years.

>remembered that I backed the gunship
Damn I don't know if I even want that shit anymore. Gonna take up so much space

>>11616956
I think it varies way too much to qualify as spam. Out of 3 pics there is only 1 character who is in 2 of them, so not even in every one of them. Also every pic has a different angle and the last pic offers visual demonstration of info valuable to customizers. So wtf are you talking about! I only noticed one spammer who posted way to much photos of the same lame scene but I take that any day over nothing but stock or marketing shots.

>>11616983
He posts in the DC thread too. Often times the same overexposed Daily Planet background with shitty poses. That's not even the worst of it though, if it was just that I'd not give him a care. But it's the blatant talking to himself, spamming AI slop, and generally just bringing the whole thread down. It's why no one but him posts there anymore. He doesn't even leave his trip on so he can be filtered. Also he has objectively terrible taste in toys and seems to be a borderline coomer due to how obsessed he is with certain figures.

>>11616989
lmao its wild how much of your time you waste making up crazy shit about me

>>11616992
VF, you do post AI slop, you dontslk to yourself, and you have genuinely brought the whole DC thread down with your bullshit. Not even the NECA display fag or kanji are as annoying as you.

>>11617004
yeah me posting pictures of toys on a toy board is the problem, not your rabid obsessive stalking and constant screeching
you keep saying you're some noble schizo warrior fighting for thread culture but you're the obnoxious faggot trying to derail the thread
fuck off, dumb cunt

rerelease my nigga K'Kruhk

do you guys think a TVC Royal Guard (Kir Kanos) head or one of those Marauder Task Force heads with a goatee would make a better Kyle custom
in 3.75? or any other suggestions that aren't "just switch to Black Series/"

>>11617008
>yeah me posting pictures of toys on a toy board is the problem
In my original post I literally state that I don't have any issue with you just posting toys, shitty lighting and all. It's everything else you do. The AI slop thing is the most annoying and cringe. Also, your weird fixation on Power Girl and other female figures like Bariss Offee and now fucking Power Princess in the Marvel threads makes me experience second hand embarrassment for you.

>you keep saying you're some noble schizo warrior fighting for thread culture but you're the obnoxious faggot trying to derail the thread
Homo, I just think you're annoying and that you're a big reason why the DC thread is so trash. At least stop fucking talking to yourself. That's by far the most annoying thing.

Also your AI generated Phantom Lady slop isn't toys. It's AI garbage.

>>11617018
there are professionals who can help you, retard

>>11617017
should add i already have the comic pack figure, but I hate it.. looks nothing like Kyle and that comic sucked

>>11617026
Sorry, no one's gonna stop me from thinking you're annoying.

>>11617036
lol okay enjoy spending the rest of your life pissing and shitting yourself for hours any time I post a Star Wars toy on 4chan

>>11617041
I will, thanks.

Why does everyone (or just one anon) dogpile on that guy? I don't think he posts that much in /swg/ to consider it spam. I will agree with the bad taste though like unironically getting carbonized kenobi shit and dial of destiny shit like come on brother

>>11617017
That might work. I can't think of any other generic looking bearded heads in 3.75". Unless you want to look in other brands or resin prints that you'd have to paint yourself

>>11617066
It's multiple people. He's annoying in other threads and recognizable so people shit on him.

>>11616989
So I checked this DC general >>11610373 to see what its all about. That general seems to be nearing an end, so a lot of stuff, but I couldnt make out any photos you described.
I think you should take a step back and have a breather...

>>11617086
If you don't frequent it, you won't recognize his posts.

>>11616969
Is the articulation on that Killy any good? Been thinking about buying one.

>>11615284 (OP)
do you guys think the Vintage Collection Jedi Spirits 3-Pack is worth it?

>>11617156
Yes. They look so much better than the Cinema Scene versions. Yoda is still outdated but honestly it's fine for what this version is supposed to do. And the swappable heads for Anakin was a perfect choice.

>>11617066
I honestly think it's just one guy being an asshole to him in every thread. I post my toy photos sometimes and you can identify me easily, since my figures are always on my desk. No one says a word to me ever. I only post maybe once or twice a thread though. Half the post on this site now are bots anyway. My personal opinion is this, the more toy pictures, the better. That's the whole point of the thread.

>>11617189
>My personal opinion is this, the more toy pictures, the better
You mean the more toy picture, the more anons will seethe

Which vintage stormtrooper should I get to utilize these heads that came with boba fett? Remnant ?

They come with ball pegs so I assume they are meant to be out on trooper bodies

Thanks !

>>11617189
No one complains about you because you're not annoying like the other guy. What part of "it isn't him posting toy pictures, it's everything else he does" don't you guys understand? Go into the DC thread right now and look for the AI generated Phantom Lady pics he was spamming. All the while, talking to himself.

>>11617204
It'll fit on any that use the VC140 Stormtrooper mold. So Remnant, ANH, Rogue One, Heavy Assault Stormtrooper, etc. will work.

>>11617204
I have them on my Night Trooper Stormies and they look nice. There is a slight color difference though.
>>11617207
Maybe I just don't spend enough time on /toy/ in genera, or to see others spamming in different threads. I am just not personally bothered by his posting here at all. He's never caused any trouble in this thread and the only people who seem to complain about him, are people bitching about his choice in figures.

>>11617237
It's like talking to a brick fucking wall with some of you faggots sometimes. I can reiterate my point, clear as day, over and over again, and you'll still misconstrue it. I mean, I can spell it out directly all day but whatever man, think whatever you want to think. I'm done caring.

>>11617124
Pretty good for his original price. Better than Hasbro and Bandai stuff. About Mafex tier I'd say with the slight caveat of him having rubber shoulder pads and vest on the torso that hinder articulation at those spots. No full bend at the middle of his torso.

>>11617251
>I'm done caring
>continues to make up crazy shit for hours

>>11617231
>>11617231
Thank you.

Toys?

>>11617289
Nice Rendar render.

>>11617385
It's the game. I reinstall it everyonce in a while. PC version is super slippery compared to how I remember it on N64.

>>11617237
>am just not personally bothered by his posting here at all.
You're part of the problem

>>11617251
Touch grass and relax.

Star Wars should stop clogging up shelves. It's literally all the same crap from a year ago or longer.

I don't understand the difference (BBTS)

>>11617665
There isn't any. One of them is just a reissue of the other with a new cardback.

>>11617665
>>11617678
There's exactly one major difference as far as I'm aware, which is that the most recent reissue (the top one in your image) comes with an OT E-11 instead of a Rogue One E-11, which fits much better in the holster. I think all 3 have been slightly different shades of white, too, but that's probably just unintentional factory shit.

When the fuck are we getting Vernestra Rwoh or Lula Talisola & Zeen Mrala or even Lanoree Brock

>>11617189
I used to post a lot of toy pictures here and in other threads but never got any replies aside from people saying that a particular figure is shit and I'm stupid for buying it, so I stopped. Only ragebait and trolling gets genuine responses these days.

anyone here have Figuarts Yoda? Wondering if it's worth the price. Looks good in pictures

>>11617730
Nobody wants whos from Hrt Republic

>>11615313
what head is that on the Trinity body?

>>11617289
Needs some stubble

>>11617256
Very nice. Thanks

i'm kinda bugged the black series ventress we got isn't the 2003 clone wars version, that design fucks

sheeeeiiittt just got dinged $10 shipping from EE for the Revan reissue
never expected it to actually fill kek

>>11617730
>Vernestra Rwoh
They already made her

>>11617791
Post again Anon, people care. I care. We all need to make this lame ass general better

>>11617971
I would love her and Durge. Make them look like upscaled versions of their old figures and I'd be so happy.
I think they are a pipedream. Yet I thought Kyle Katarn was a pipedream before, so who knows?

I have actually been posting every figure I get. But I don't get that much anymore. My next fig I think will be TVC Padme. I guess I will get SHF Grievous before then but that's not Hasbro.

>>11618315
Well this is Star Wars General, not just Hasbro Star Wars.

>>11617730
Nobody cares about Disney Wars, specially the HR. They did all the Acolyte figures including Vernestra but I doubt anything else will ever be made, since it is from comics/books. Maybe if they run out of ideas, but they chose to tap into the Expanded Universe so there will be plenty of figures for a long time.

>>11618590
Not him but there are some HR figures I would buy in TVC even though I know pretty much nothing about the characters/era besides what was presented in Jedi Survivor. Marchan Ro is a pretty cool looking bad guy and his phase I look would be fine as a random pirate for any era. I'd also take Stellan Gios since he's got a neat looking saber. Also the big Trandoshan Jedi since that's not really something we've ever had before. Also a younger Vernestra would be fine since she was actually attractive and not like the ghoul wife of Lego Headland that was put in live action.

>>11618213
I've actually been struggling with my Star Wars stuff recently because I switched primarily over to buying Lego and I simply don't have room to display anything. I spent months collecting figures to fill out my cantina ahead of it arriving, and now that it's here, it's just been sitting unopened because I have nowhere to even put it and the recent issues with SW like $20 TVC figures have made me question whether I even want to keep collecting the line.

>>11618590
The crapolyte is already clogging up Ross stores. There hasn't been anything worse since Reva.

>>11618636
I totally agree with you, any interesting desing is a instant buy for me too, the two you posted look fine. But I don't think Disney is interested in doing them right now, it seems they are going for UE and games (modern and old) first. I bet they will release a new Kreya any day now.

>>11618792
This. I almost get excited for something good as a find and it's just more shit.

Quite possibly the most poisonous character they were forced to make.

No one cares about this anymore I guess.

I took a 3.75 tusken boba and parts from Cobb Vanth to make this boba fett from mandalorian before he repainted the armor. Which was the only 3.75 boba I was missing. Whatcha think?

>>11619509
nice bait. I was writing a whole blog post about how terrible that show was. nobody wants to read that. nobody -needs- to read that.

Is it weird that the thing I was most excited for the new Snowtroopers to be able to do is stand at attention without their legs super far apart? Maybe, but it's the one pose these guys can do that the old ones really couldn't, so it's what I started with.

>>11619576
kek

As much as it makes me happy to put 'em all in formation, though, it's obviously a bit of a waste of the rest of the articulation, so here's somethin a bit more dynamic.

Final two for Last Figure Standing. Not much of a shocker

>>11619509
I don't get the retro collection figures for non OT stuff. It should have been a continuation of the original Kenner figures.

>>11619811
>>11619829
I don't think it's weird to appreciate that aspect of them. But it is nice they can hit pretty much any pose they need. Glad they got them right pretty much out of the gate. I usually don't go for snow themed figures just because I live in a desert and rarely see it, but after buying one, it was such a good figure that I had to buy one of the army builder packs to make a squad. Also helped justify getting the 3 pack with the Commander.

>>11619886
Some people like things in retro style. I kind of get it, but I also feel there's a point where it just gets excessive and it's clear there's no longer a market for them. Making retro figures of every show and movie is too much and it's clear that people aren't really that interested in them. Even Mandalorian retros pegwarmed.

>>11619886
I bought one of them a long time ago (Darth Fring from season 1 Mandlorian) thinking it was like time-traveling or alt-universe or something else silly, to have a figure in the old style, complete with the wear printed along the edges of the card!

>>11619509
but I was horrified when the massive "RETRO COLLECTION KOLLEKTION COLECCION SERIE" circle could NOT be peeled off. it ripped and made a mess! what's the point if it's not exactly like the old style? they never had goofy stickers on them like that argh!!!

here's a thought I had recently:
do you think Hasbro is seething over Lego's success? like, how many action figure bucks are going over to Lego instead of Hasbro? it obviously splits the allocated hobby money away from them

Lego just released a $1000 set! A whole THOUSAND DOLLARS! that's the equivalent of 40 Black Series figures. Ironically, that Lego Death Star includes 38 Minifigures. so Lego figured out how to sell tiny tiny figures for the price of a fully-articulated, multi-sculpted-part, massive figure. and your only option is to buy them all 38 at the same time.

>>11620177
they did the stickers because if they were the exact same, people would have cried about the value of the originals going down, at least for the OT ones

>>11620196
As much as I like Lego, I would take 40 Black Series figures over the Death Star any day. I still have about that much left that I want. The Death Star is really only for you, if you're a hardcore Lego fan.

>>11620196
I don't think there is a lot of goodwill by collectors toward LEGO for that set, though. I've mostly seen nothing but ridicule and frustration with that set. Sure, there will be plenty of people that will buy it, but I don't think there are going to be that many people willing to drop a grand on it.

>>11619576
Well they retconned it back to the razor's edge in the new movie so of course nobody cares anymore.

>>11619576
I'm actually kinda tempted since I don't have a 3.75 Mando and Grogu yet.

>>11619645
Looks good.

>>11620291
>Retconned
>Razors edge
You're trying too hard.

>>11619576
Now the Haslab people can wiggle their butts with joy when they see the mooooovie!

>wanted a Christmas Mando to go with Santa Grogu
>was tempted for pic-related since it looks close enough
>look up reviews and find out through comments it's actually in Hanukkah colors
>quick google search says Pedro isn't even Jewish
Well now I'm sad. Also I'm honestly surprised we haven't gotten another Christmas Mando on an updated body mold after all this time.

>>11620291
That's not what retcon means

>>11620643
I retconned it into meaning that

>>11620606
That must be why it's clogging shelves at Ollie's

>>11615498
I can recommend the model kit if youre willing to paint it. The Mafex is better but the model kit shit on the BS version hard.

>>11620606
Ain't Jews like 2% of the population? How many of them are actually into NU Star Wars? Hilarious HasBLOW would just waste money releasing a figure like this that nobody wants for a holiday a fraction of a fraction of the population celebrates.

>>11620729
all that instead of giving me a goddamn HK-47. m'schitztom

>>11620606
>>quick google search says Pedro isn't even Jewish
The figure is based off the Death Watch Mandalorian mold, not Din Djarin.

>>11620781
I hate Hasbro just used Din Djarin's thighs for every male Mandalorian side character. They look retarded with matching colors.

>>11620792
Pretty sure that figure was an an all new mold and they used the same asymmetrical thigh plates in the show so you can blame the costume designers for the retardation

>REEEE THEY'RE NOT GIVING ME THE CHRISTMAS REPAINT SLOP I WANT
are we really at this point
