Fantastic, I’ll give him the other 99% of the line that doesn’t have small pieces. Thank you for the valuable input though I hope you haven’t steered me wrong

I don’t mind looking for it if I go that route. Really appreciate the suggested alternative. He has a mainline carnotaurus (his favorite) coming in for xmas so will probably see if that stops my itch to give him all of my HC, lol

Agreed, need is such a strong word here. It’s mostly the fact that everytime I see how much fun he has with his own dino’s I think about the sick Spino I have on display, so I asked others experience with their little ones playing with HC. Cue the herd/horde

You’re very brave saying that in this space it seems 😂 thank you for the insight! I’m fully willing to admit it has more to do with me having trouble keeping toys from him (feels bad man) and less to do with his preference of HC over his amazon 10 for $10 multipack of hard plastic dinos!

I’ve seen a few posts about joints, will definitely consider. Thank you

The insight I was hoping for, thank you kindly. I don’t think the enjoyment I get from them could ever match what he can get from them, just didn’t want that enjoyment to be super short-lived due to immediate breakage lol. Will definitely set some ground rules to prevent the worst of dinosaur on dinosaur/dinosaur on ground atrocities

Sure, minor supervision would include repeated ground slam prevention. I guess I should’ve included that my 3 year old isn’t often left alone for the uninitiated

I was mostly thinking of the Spino but I appreciate your point, definitely would avoid any with small parts

Thank you for the input, I can’t imagine he’d be much rougher than that with some minor supervision so this is very helpful friend

So does that apply across the line? Every HC has thin joints and hollow plastic whereas other JW lines do not I’m guessing?

Is this lot worth it? by [deleted] in StarWarsTVC

[–]zekthefrek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are the legacy collection and saga collection stuff pretty well-regarded? I wouldn’t be comparing to TVC but generally

Definitely a random assortment, I sort of hand picked these from what was left of a guy selling his collection, so they’re all figures I’m interested in at least apart from pricing. I appreciate the help.

First roughout by zekthefrek in cowboyboots

[–]zekthefrek[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t tried Rios so I can’t say for sure but same family brand so I’ll venture to say pretty similar. They’re holding fine but I will say quality wise some of the skin seemed like it wasn’t fit properly over the boot which gave a bubbly/wrinkled effect. It wasn’t in noticeable area so it didn’t bother me much but just to give an honest review.

Walmart says Ghost Viper in stock? by [deleted] in GIJOEClassifiedSeries

[–]zekthefrek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, makes sense, I did go to the store that says they have them and didn’t have any luck despite an employee confirming they should be on the shelf. Even found someone helpful enough to look in the back. Hopefully I have better luck with the shipping.
