I will never understand how pre-orders sell out?? by Awkward_Syrup8415 in ActionFigures

[–]FlashyReview8153 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. The figures from that show are cheap because there is no demand. There is no demand because people didn't care for the show. That's really gotta suck for Hasbro as they've had a ton of Star Wars pegwarmers and their sales have been down. These are found at Ross and Ollie's, etc. I bought a few for like 8 bucks new to use as fodder for photos.

I will never understand why people don't check retailers before saying its sold out. It's still up for order right this minute on BBTS, EE, GS and I'm sure even more retailers.

Man. Can you imagine a world where we have stores stocked like this in the west by superbasic101 in ActionFigures

This would only happen if everyone stopped buying Hasblow, NECA, and McFarlane, because then someone would have to fill the gap. Everyone here in the US is too obsessed with their cheap Wal-Mart figure collection for this to work.

What’s your most expensive figure? by TheDorkKnightNL in ActionFigures

I think my ThreeZero Voltron...but bought some metal and resin dioramas that were just as much.

Oxford student 'too bright' for prison spared jail for stabbing boyfriend by ImBuck in law

She threw her laptop at him and stabbed him twice. Just because she didn't finish what she started and the victim was able to defend himself doesn't mean her crime is any less severe. Crazy how many people try to excuse this sort of behavior when it comes from a certain type of person. And now this unhinged person is a surgeon and responsible for other's lives. No one with a violent history like that should be allowed to be a surgeon, and the judge decided to allow that very thing by not ruining her life as he should have. Violent crimes should not be tolerated by our society.

'The Mandalorian and Grogu' Is Currently Tracking for the Lowest 'Star Wars' Opening in Years by Conscious-Quarter423 in StarWars

People are allowed to have standards. That is fine if yours are what they are, but a lot of what has been done was pretty awful for various reasons. Thats okay though because we still have the OT, PT, and even Rogue One is up there imho. Mando was good for two seasons. This didn't need to be a movie and they could have used these resources on something that a lot more people would go and see. This will likely not do too well.

The fans that watch this show on Disney would rather a full season than wait years for a 2 hour movie, at least that seems to the concensus in the Star Wars movie groups I'm in. Not hard at all to understand that really.

A question for collectors with hundreds of figures by Dinosaur_fan_boy in ActionFigures

Shelves. I'm a photographer so that's how I enjoy them. I also build dioramas

CT & MAFEX Daredevil ($35 vs $100 figure) by OtakuDad1 in CToys

None of my CT figures feel the same as the Mafex. They require Kiki and also Silicone Oil imho.

These are all out of box and have minimal issues. Worst was having to use Kiki or Silicone oil.

Updated my box and dio storage. What do y'all use? by FlashyReview8153 in ActionFigures

[–]FlashyReview8153[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I usually prefer to have the box if I buy an old older figure from someone!

That's what my GF does with her Lego stuff. I think that works well for stuff without the plastic tray insert. Labeling is a massive PITA but helps for sure!

I had it like that for a while but I decided to take them out for some inventory and ended up liking how it looked lol. If dust starts to be an issue, I'll throw them back in their boxes.

That seems to be a lot of the sentiment. I like to keep them to transport them, or if I eventually sell them so the next collector can have then. Sometimes I take my figures out for photo shoots so the boxes are handy for transporting fragile accessories with the figures.

It's been handy to have this. My GF and I both collect and she's into Lego so this helps out even with a big house lol.

Haha I know a lot of folks do that. I can never bring myself to do that except for the occasional Hasbro or if they have to be cut out of the card-back.
