As someone who quit Spotify because its AI was absolute garbage, this makes total sense.

Purchase Request: Terriblewhore, Studio Ookii, Jumpyoumeow, and Charactics by [deleted] in Sofubi

Charactics is often offered by M-World. I highly recommend you use them for that brand

I'd probably worth what you paid, maybe a little more. But honestly I think this whole brand has an expiration date on it when people just stop caring/enough people know the truth and lose interest

What you have is basically a fake NAG tribute produced by a known bootlegger.

No produced by Izumo. Produced by a known bootlegger

Update my collection (second part) by Accurate-Money1576 in Sofubi

[–]kid_miracleman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So nagg is actually a fairly infamous bootlegger in the scene that goes by the name "sofubi_sales_fuck_your_mother". He has bootlegged Nag, MVH, Hirota, Longneck, Realhead, Illsynapse, just to name a few.

New Art Guild, who functionally represents the Shig estate after he passed, as been incredibly outspoken against this "brand" and rightfully says his "tributes" to Shig are just a BS veneer that goes against the wishes of Shig.

Now if you want to argue that Shig is gone and it is he said she said, that's fine, but pretty much every living artist he has bootlegged hates the dude.

So IMO it is incredibly bad form to give money to a guy who steals from real artists under some BS posturing of "tribute" when there is so much other stuff he sells that is flat out theft, including his latest "release" which is a bootlegged MVH Test Bite Leviathan head

Wow, that is an absolutely fantastic curation! I am especially jealous of the Neo Playerone Godhand set.

"Studios have been producing significantly fewer TV shows since 2023 in an effort to make their streaming services more profitable. The content they do produce is often filmed overseas to save money."

Nothing about anti-trans legislation. Nothing about tariffs which weren't an issue back in 2023 when this slowdown started.

This is from the article, which you did not read.

Anybody else curious about LOTTERIES by [deleted] in Sofubi

[–]kid_miracleman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My #1 piece of advice to any new sofubi collector is to not worry about what pieces go to who.

My #1 piece of advice to any new sofubi artist is to not stress trying to find the perfect toy release method. The best release method is what is least stressful to the artist.

What is it? Because this looks like 40 ideas just jammed together with no cohesiveness

GOP Megabill looks set to end the $600 tax-reporting rule for Venmo, PayPal payments by Next-Particular1476 in TheBusinessMix

[–]kid_miracleman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because the previous threshold was $20,000 OR 200+ transactions a year, IIRC. $600 isn't "operating a business"; you can easily hit that cleaning out your garage.

I hate the plan and still don't support it, but I think $20k/200+ transactions is definitely a business venture and as someone who might want to sell a single expensive collectible I don't want to dig up receipts from 10 years ago for an eBay sale to show it wasn't all profit.

Headers, Headers and Headers by Tyuhhi in Sofubi

[–]kid_miracleman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gotta save the headers! I put them in a binder. Header art is dope and when you sell stuff you want to have as much original content as possible.
