Good job linking it you faggot
previous thread: >>11877809
This cricket ninja is the only Sexy Ice figure I have been interested in and now with the breakdown of his design, I am dreading how much he'll cost. Considering all Chinese figures seem to be increasing in price, I suspect it'll be outside my limit. I am fearing Inart's massive price increase with seemingly little pushback from all the shills in the """"community"""" it's going to set the trend going forward and other studios will follow suit, we'll see though I guess.In general, I'm hoping we see some progress on some of the figures that were revealed by people at last Wonderfest, Fish Toys snake warrior girls for instance, we haven't heard anything about them since. I don't think I actually have any Chinese figgies coming in any time soon, all my pre-orders are far away I think.
>>11904338Thanks anon>>11904367>Considering all Chinese figures seem to be increasing in price, I suspect it'll be outside my limit>all my pre-orders are far away I thinkI think everyone in last thread can relate to that.I can definitely relate. I swore off Figma and Revoltech for year because I needed to save money and now these Chinese brands are making me consider doing the same with them next year. Pic related might be my last figure purchase until 2028.
>>11904367For inart it's mostly black myth wukong stuff because no one else doing it, look at their dc stuff. Their new joker is 488 rmb. Also what community we talking? Because chink don't like the price of sage armor and the tiger
>>11904203are we going to see the colour of this thing tonight? Whether I buy this or not really comes down to if it's the same gunmetal colour as the ant/maticora or not
>>11904203Wait we just have a thr->page 9Ohhhhh...
>>11904446>full body armor>ass for some reason is bareI mean I ain't complainin', I guess coomers gotta coom
>>11904455It's a tactical distraction
>>11904458>Enemy sneak up from behind>See bare ass>Coom and lostEasy win
>>11904446>Also what community we talkingI meant the western Youtuber sphere, I'm not really speaking of actual people, I have no doubt loads of people are bothered, but the reviewers, podcasters etc. are being so insidious. Take Anthony Customs for example, watch his recent review of the Wukong, he starts off with his usual "muh objective, I'm gonna say how I feel, nobody can keep me down!" then proceeds to say shit like "what even is price REALLY? Something's worth is defined by your comfort in paying it!" etc. despite spending like 30% of every figure review harping on about the price/value proposition. He literally at one point, when talking about the price, reinforces how he is being objective and then instantly says price and value are subjective to each of us, it's absurd. Aspects he cries about on literally every figure he glosses over, like lack of torso articulation, can't look up, ankles and hands barely move, but it doesn't count this time, 9/10 and his insipid soft tone like he's critiquing his girlfriend's pottery, it's so pathetic. He isn't the only one I'm just using him as an example, they are all so desperate to be "in" with Inart or whomever, these same people who constantly (rightfully) bemoan McFarlane, Hasbro etc. for price changes just all communally completely ignore or downplay Inart's basically across the board 30-50% price hike (and it's all their figures, not just Black Myth). It really reminds me of what happened in video game coverage a decade ago, remember the whole flying everyone to a God of War spa session in Sweden or some shit? Sorry I had to rant to someone about this shit, I'll shut up now. Also the figure looks gorgeous still, not a slight on it, they really went all out on that one.
>>11904380I just watched a review on that one, looks pretty nice for how cheap she was, nice paint on the weapons, though I think you need to get/make a proper Hornet poncho, the one she comes with looks low effort.
>>11904446what figure is this
>>11904494Blazewave Valkyrie Brunhilde, pre-order September 28th - November 28th. The bare bum and weird dress shoes looking high heels ruined it for me, I was looking forward to it before those were revealed. Her upper armour looks very N7 inspired, so I'm a bit sad she doesn't work for me.
>>11904494Here is the head sculpt for you.
>>11904483>like he's critiquing his girlfriend's potteryKek nah it was a fun rant anon and I totally agree.Anthony is just ridiculously swayed in what he says depending on if he likes the sculpt and paint. He's still the goat for showing figures off though.My eyes watered when I went to check the price of that figure after the review.
>>11904380I got 2 of those with the white head
>>11904500She's dissociating out of embarrassment because her skirt armor fell off
>>11904505Yeah he's better than most, I agree. SpicyPsyDuck has been my favourite since he started, but he doesn't do as many reviews, he's better for this thread's theme though, lots of Chinese figures with insight into the landscape there. >My eyes watered when I went to check the price of that figure after the review.Did you get one though?
>>11904522>CORPORAL, WHY IN THE HELL ARE YOUR ASS CHEEKS OUT>I.. the armor fell off running here sir
>>11904537Nah, I just had to see what he was talking about.
>>11904446>Oh yes finally a figure that uses MGS5 FROGS as a direct inspiration!>>11904500>ass out>thighs out>partial midriff>any skin showing at all>those stupid high heel bootsNevermind the dream is dead.
>>11904483>>11904505>>11904537>>11904546>Youtuber gossip>doesn't even post a pic of the Wukong figureReally guys? Fine, I recommend No Good Figures. Try him or don't.
You have to be fucking kidding me
>>11904550Price: 598 RMB
>>11904548Sorry.
>>11904550>>11904552LOl told you it would be cringe shit
>>11904550HHOLY SHIT LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUCK THIS COMPANY
>>11904550>the most boring color scheme everWell...I guess pic related will be my next SexyIce2019 purchase. I'm swearing off their Unkvals and humanoid insect experiments. See you guys next year when they finally reveal their Red God Witch prototype.
>>11904552>598 RMB>£66/$90So that means like £90/120ish for the foreign cuck rate I guess. Fuck man. I now AmiAmi is their default seller, probably even more. Hopefully Gundamit come to the rescue a bit.
>>11904550idk why everyone is surprised, this is what I expected. few people will be collecting the whole line for the lore, and a bigger market is people who want another cool hero figure.
>>11904550>no maskless head >same colour scheme as the ambusherbro this is the worst case scenario
>>11904554>>11904555What am I missing, are you guys upset at the colour scheme? I'm pretty sure they showed it as black at one of the events. They'll probably do variants.
>>11904559"cool" lol no it's kamen rider shit with a slight edge
>>11904550>>11904552I mean, it’s par for the course with them at this point. I’ve found a lot of Chinese lines tend to be light on paint apps/have awful color schemes so it’s not surprising, but it’s also not super upsetting. He’ll fit in fine with Eliminator or Manticore depending on the setup. But yeah now that this is on the way I have no interest in getting anything else from them.
>>11904566don't care, just post the link instead of spamming that boring shit
>>11904565I think it looks excellent, I like the scheme. I think it's almost more of an issue with the other figures having such similar/bland schemes, because this one fit's the dark cyber assassin style much more. The Manticora and Ant being black blobs after the Mantis was pale was a weird decision for me, that was their opportunity to add colour into the line.
>>11903123where is it.....
>>11904567>>11904569The pre-order is the 29th.
>>11904572I'm talking about the bug face with the curved antennae....it's gone....
>>11904574reminded them of themselves too much
>>11904574Oh sorry. Likely, but perhaps not, he does have face plats and unless they all go on top of the face with the one eye, which it doesn't look like it, that sculpt could be underneath and they just haven't shown it. More likely they just changed their design though.
Did they drop bombusbee as their official store? The locust posts recommend amiami for overseas
>>11904580bombus was just trying to get money
>>11904567this is an imageboard retard. it's also much easier to view pics here than the terrible carousels most sites have
>>11904590ok
>>11904557>red god witch>ends up being black and gray>>11904564>>11904566Looks like there is some decent "playability". I didn’t really care about this before, now I think it’s cool but still will probably have to pass. Just too much shit to collect. I might take a break from these OC characters. Also I actually like the color scheme. There are subtle hits of color. It’s a nice safe scheme that will match with the unkvals since it’s supposed to go with them. Something else might’ve looked goofy
>>11904566that ass is getting smashed by manticora once i get my hands on him
>>11904595this isn't ctg
>>11904550>>11904552>>11904563>>11904564>>11904566>>11904568It is like these motherfuckers are allergic to color.
>>11904610colour adds to the cost
>>11904591I mean, not saying the link isn't helpful though
>>11904616yeah it would be for me
>>11904614I'm starting to understand that. What better way to cut costs than use the same paint as the figure in production before this one Kind of funny seeing these all together. Just a black mess and BAM red smasher. Fucker stands out too much.
>>11904619I'm not the anon who was posting pics but from what I see, they're just on their instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/sexyice_2019/p/DdnQSm7EnCy
Is it me or he looks almost as big as Manticora?
>>11904593>Just too much shit to collect. I might take a break from these OC characters.Yeah it's killing me as well. I came in with a hard rule, a list I made of characters I care about and would like in figure form and somewhere along the way, I've found myself buying more and more random OC things that are just cool figures. Tempted to purge many of my pre-orders and go back to being more diligent.
>>11904568>literally the coolest Vermin ever>>11904567>>11904560>UH THIS THING SUCKS ACTUALLY I share a thread with tasteless Prima Donnas.
>>11904634I too like it, it really seems like the people here just like shitting on everything along with everywhere else on board.
>>11904634bro it's just a black suit kamen rider.
>>11904639honestly, the helmet in most of this photography doesn't really sell kamen rider as much as the prototype and some of the silhouette shots do. It'd be interested in seeing if some of the alternate plates capture it a little better in the full look instead of just those zoomed head shots >>11904550I also wish her had a little more green in his looks, like a flat military green wouldn't feel out of place and I think would sell the grasshopper/locust look better than the muted blues he got as color accents.
>>11904641that's all I can see so that's all it'll ever be to me. I've already soured on sexyice and the overhype it got after I got mine. I'm just here now for the other chinese brands when they get posted.
crazy how much cooler the grey prototype looks
>>11904561>They'll probably do variantsI would love a vibrant blue Pure Ice variant.
>>11904593>red god witch>not redNow you're being silly.
>>11904552is there a higher quality image of this? 2 of those face plates arent shown in any of the other images (clear and silver)
>>11904683Any better?
>love ghost ant now this
>>11904689yeah thanks. The biohazard one is cool, don't know why they didnt show it
>>11904692fuck awesome. Going to be crazy expensive though. I think my ghost ant was like 110 if you didn't preorder. For the deluxe
>>11904696Might wait a bit to get it this timeI saw ghost ant on sale the other day
>>11904702eh I don't like to risk that stuff. Especially if it's this kind of bizarre things.
>>11904702This is actually the first bug that has interested me. It looks like an enemy you'd see in Doom.
>>11904709he's a big oni muthafucker. will go great with my stuff
>>11904550The color scheme and smiling faceplate seem like they'd be more associated with some sort of shark monster.
>>11904692From the thumbnail I assume the one at the right was The Tick...
>>11904731retard
>>11904550I was expecting green but I guess I'd end up looking like an actual existing kamen rider, black makes sense anyway its a stealth-assassin type unit, and the soldiers are all grounded visually, smasher was a standout
>>11904550same blue as water unkval nahhhh what the fuck is this shit also where is the ugly face?>>11904550holy shit lmao they dont like the sale of that unkval and actually lowering the price
>>11904734>the soldiers are all grounded visuallyThe Unkvals are not in any way grounded. They are ultra buff cyborg skeleton men. Having a dull black color scheme doesn't automatically make something grounded.
This was 5 hour ago
>>11904758ok
>>11904740knew I was gonna get corrected, I meant more like it makes sense tacticool secret experimental supersoldiers would be all black
>>11904761and matches the dark gritty world / lore theyre making
Some early design of locust
>>11904771Inspiration for the mask
>>11904772Scrapped design
and all of their concepts were better. Hope this doesn't sell and they close up
>>11904776>Hope this doesn't sell and they close upSee >>11904758That's minutes after the announcement, now 8000 order and still going up. Clearly people don't really care that much about colour, it's about the price. You can keep telling that yourself tho, it's funny to read
>>11904786Sis I don't read chink. I though that pic was some random shit to clog up the thread
>>11904758Over 10k now, I'm actually a little worried, I know they have a made to order model for pre-orders, but these companies only have so much physical space in warehouses etc. They might end up maxing out before we even reach the 29th.
>>11904380>HornetCan't wait for mine to arrive.
>>11904864Cowl oni had 10k orders too it's not a big deal
anyone have experience buying from taobao? how do you get notified when its time to make payment
>>11904689If they include a clear helmet face plate does that mean there's a face under the face plate that is clearly visible?
>>11904771I hope they make just the bug/non-unk version, that's the one I wanted
>Today I will remind themYou can paint your own colorschemes on your Vermin. No one's stopping you. Buy a bottle of dye remover and strip the parts down, then get your preferred painting tool and go to work.
>>11904964You'd think but why wouldn't they show that? Probably just flat with peg holes lmao
>>11904758>>11904864oh they are 100% making a recolour of this lol don't worry
>>11904978>potentially ruin your expensive figure because I said so>if you fuck up I get to call you a moron>no I never have done any paint work on an expensive articulated figure beforeThis is how every anon sees you when you post your shitty advice.
>>11904964Looking at it closer, only the silver one with the biohazard symbol has the jaw piece like the other 2 plates, meaning the clear and blue masks just go over top of that one.
>>11904644>the overhype it got after I got mineWhat were your problems with it? I've not been interested in their other figures before this one, I thought people really liked them, have they had long term issues? I remember seeing some post about the first eliminator's arms breaking or something.
>>11905344I just expected more I guess. It would be like playing that shit game outer wilds or whatever like I did after everyone glazed it and realizing wow this isn't fun at all. The figure was overpriced and then bombusbee charged way too much to ship. Think it was like 27 bucks so that didn't help. Like I said for me there are better.
>>11905355>Like I said for me there are better.Curious who you like the most, Chinese and other? My current overall favourite Chinese maker are Nottaa, I like Grey Knight a lot and obviously Inart are excellent.
>>11905371Had lucky with my fury, keepgoing, romankey. I'm looking forward to some nottaa I have ordered. Xesray as well I like. It's hard for me to remember them all. Snailshell with the rpg line and their Doro. I haven't had a bad dragonball purchase yet from BD or Kong. I've had good luck with Ct toys. Hoptoys? Might be the name but I have their goblin and he is my foty so far. Had to instantly preorder their other stuff. Fnext is Chinese I think and I like their stuff. I'd be buying even more if the tarrifs and shipping didn't ruin everything price wise.
>>11905386You really rate most of those over Sexy Ice? Is it mostly because of the price difference? I collect Xesrays, I too really like them, but I consider them a different price bracket from say a Nottaa or an Inart which are just better engineered, more articulated, more detailed etc. I mean you list CT Toys, I assume you mean their Mess Toys stuff because I have a CT Wolverine and it's not as good as some of my Marvel Legends in many ways, let alone actual high end figures. Sorry, I don't mean to grill you (others dan chime in with their feelings), I always find it interesting on how we each rate particular figures relative to each other. Like I love Frazetta Girls stuff, even though they are way too limited in articulation for the price and you pay an indie tax, objectively I can't say they are better than a Savage Crucible for example, their sculpt and feel is so good I find myself handling them and enjoying them more than many of my others, they are more artistic. Some people really dislike them though.

>>11905537
>>11905501I just expected more. You just asked to list makers I liked so I did. I was hoping on anaconda all the extra bits could be removed so I could just use him as weird space marine guy. You can remove the shoulder stuff and the helmet stuff but but if you remove the sternum piece it just leaves a gaping hole in the chest. It was many little hiccups in the road to get him from shipping price from a bad seller, hype and then having it in hand and the whole don't meet your heroes part. Mess toys or whoever, as I said Chinese toy makers have too many names or change them too often for me to keep up. I have scarlet spider and hellverine and for the price point they were great. 20 bucks I think I paid and they were as good as ML. Scarlet spider looked the same as the mezco I had except for one funky face it came with. For 20 bucks I could easily overlook it. For a bad buy I had recently was a revoltech Juri. I'm hoping the one I get this month or next from bbts is better quality since it will hopefully come from their A team. I was the guy who got the first in hand sexyice dogs for the thread. I liked them a lot. Some people were upset at the articulation but for a realistic dog they have just as much as a real dog. For their price point which was maybe 50 each I got after shipping from Japan was let's say 50. My knock on them will be the tail. It feels the most fragile since it's thin plastic. Most impressive sculpt and surprise articulation was my Fury Wukong Tiger. He's I think 9 inches tall. Beautiful figure. Imposing, loads of character and was 75 bucks. He would be the centerpiece wherever I put him. His knock would be the hands and wrists. He needed separate cuff pieces that would float to hide the joint from his hand attachment. I'm writing this on kuroba so sorry it's one giant paragraph and is not pieced correctly because I can't really edit it.

>>11905544I'm very ocd when it comes to paint apps especially. I've always been a perfectionist so if I see something wrong it eats at me til I can fix it. Recently got my MTMTE Starscream in and first thing I see is minor paint errors. For being fucked by target by them canceling my order months ago and finally getting him for 35 bucks I can kinda let it slide. Here's my sexyice dog. I will say for anacondas price point I think his paint and articulation was perfect. As I said in the last post it was the hype and everything leading up to him that made him not worth it to me. Also I like the one savage crucible black lizard guy I have. I don't like how they run a business. They run on fomo. I'm very excited about what's about to be put up by the nakers 5k has shown and will probably be doing about 10 preorders.
>>11905545I'll probably get this edgy Kamen rider because of the unique build and paint.
>>11904904From what i read on rednote they will announce it on a post, then you add the item on the cart and ask via taobao that you want to pay the rest of payment and they will change the amount for you
>>11905552>>11905544Thanks, you're right I did ask you that heh, sorry about your Revo Juri as well. Mess Toys is their own figure line, so all the ones they design themselves, whilst CT Toys is the line of knock offs they do, same company though. Their upcoming Invincible looks like it'll be the best of the bunch, compared to Jada and Super 7. I've been tempted by the dogs, but they are just a bit too pricey for me and I went with a couple of upcoming Nanmu raptors instead for my fantasy stuff.I like Savage Crucible as well, I have a bunch of their Lemurians as jobbers, solid figures, but I agree they are annoying in the way they distribute. You have a good while to place preorders from their site and then other places usually list them after, but once they are released it's such a pain to get anything with these stupid limited shop windows and what not. Their shipping from the US abroad is ridiculous as well, basically the cost of the figure again on top, same shit with Mondo, I don't why the US is so difficult to order from, companies charge absolutely insanely different prices for shipping. Mondo legit asks for $55 in shipping for single figure.>I'm very excited about what's about to be put up by the makers 5k has shownSome cool stuff for sure, we're getting a lot of big crocodile dudes coming out. I'm definitely getting a Spartalia, you getting a Fury Tiger, the mount I mean?
>>11905545Thuis guy does nothing for me. I find a lot of these OC Chinese insect/insect adjacent figures are just not my cup of tea at all, though obviously the designers their love them, so many are being made. It's all very one note. Looks like a good figure though.
>>11905552>I will say for anacondas price point I think his paint and articulation was perfectdisagree about the price, should have been the same as smasher because it's literally just repaint. increasing the price just because muh exclusive is bullshit
>>11905041>if you fuck up I get to call you a moronProjecting; I encourage customization not denigrate it like you are. You're the retard getting filtered by paint schemes. The fact remains you can change that, but by your own admittance never will has been noted. Painting has never been simpler today than it has been in the history of toys, but you're still acting like it's unobtainable. I feel sorry for you more than anything, to be arrested by such a shit opinion.
>>11905792>You>You>You>Painting has never been simpler today than it has been in the history of toys, but you're still acting like it's unobtainableAllow me to reiterate my point: All the advice YOU give is bullshit and I will continue to call YOU out because YOU have never actually painted an articulated figure in your life so shut the fuck up.
>>11905795>Triggered retard doesn't understand how creatively handicapped he is because he's afraid people will ridicule his failed attempts so he never even triesAll of the day, bro
Any reason why you're over reacting to customs, Anon? It's not even bad advice you're just having a melt down over nothing.
>>11905797>retard thinks he can offer advice for thing he has never actually doneI paint miniatures that come unpainted because that's what is intended. Same with model kits. I do not buy articulated prepainted figures at full price only to strip the paint off. I already paid for a painted figure. Why would I want to put time and effort into stripping away the paint job I PAID FOR.
>>11905802>It's not even bad adviceIt's the smug attitude. The "you could stop complaining and get painting" when the retard spouting off has never stripped and painted a professionally painted premium painted figure ever. Something I've actually done and stressed about.
>>11905803>I paint miniatures that come unpainted because that's what is intended.No one has a written rule that says you can't paint over already painted things. Your arrogance is clouding your judgement. > I do not buy articulated prepainted figures at full price only to strip the paint off. I already paid for a painted figure. Why would I want to put time and effort into stripping away the paint job I PAID FOR.Because you won't shut the fuck up about how sexyice ruined your figure with grey and black paint. This was a solution proposed to your anal hemorrhaging. If you don't like it, don't buy it. If you do buy it and don't like it, then change it. Simple as that. >>11905802He's bringing up miniature painting to sound like he's an authority on the matter, accusing me that I've never painted a day in my life to slander me and my DEMANDING ADVICE TO RUIN EXPENSIVE THINGS.
>>11905805>>It's not even bad advice>It's the smug attitude.complete and utter projection. You're playing yourself. It was a suggestion.>you can =/= you must
>>11905809>Because you won't shut the fuck up about how sexyice ruined your figure with grey and black paintSexyIce2019 has also released repaints like Anaconda Smasher. Imagine how dumb I'll feel if I buy the new grey figure, paint it blue, only for SexyIce2019 to release a blue variant anyway. >accusing me that I've never painted a day in my lifeIt's not an accusation. You've never painted an articulated figure in your life. The first step of taking an articulated figure apart to paint the pieces and joints seperate when the factory specifically designed it to NOT BE TAKEN APART could ruin a perfectly fine articulated figure.
>>11905811>projection>Today I will remind them>no one is stopping you>not coming off as smugNo one here needs to be reminded customizing exists. We someone posting custom Unkvals last thread with 3D printed parts.
mommy daddy please stop fighting
>>11905818>SexyIce2019 has also released repaintsI hate to jump into the middle of this stupid internet argument, but besides it, people keep talking about sexyice doing repaints and how certain they are. Sexyice has done one (1) repainted release that wasn't a con exclusive and it kinda flopped relative to their other sales. There are still anacondas for sale, which kinda sucks for a limited release. The only other repaint they did was the heatboys unkval which was highly exclusive and hardly a benchmark. There's no reason to assume they'd do it as a regular thing. The crash dummy robot they showed has still not been announced and no alternate color schemes for any other figures have even been displayed to date. Anaconda seems to have made it an assumption of fact, but there's really no reason for it to be.
>>11905825>Anaconda seems to have made it an assumption of fact, but there's really no reason for it to beThere's no reason to be a cynical buzzkill either. We've had repaints for every Unkval/Vermin Unit so far. That's all I need to hope something good might happen.
>>11905838>We've had repaints for every Unkval/Vermin Unit so far. we've had repaints for none of the vermin, and considering the heatboys collab as proof of anything that'll be widely available is just stupid.
>>11905840I'm not going to lose hope because you call me stupid. The same way you're not going to stop being a pessimist despite somethings in life turning out for the better.
>>11905825>no alternate color schemes for any other figures have even been displayed to dateOkay...so these two aren't different colors?
>>11905849fair, but I meant specifically a rerelease with another color as the subject at hand and people mentioning recolors in general trend toward the "but what other color schemes might" rather than just having options. those were both released at the same time but I did mention the crash dummy color scheme which hasn't even been mentioned since their release that I've seen.
>>11905679I wasn't going to get a tiger mount at first but I'm a sucker for gitd so once 5k posts more pics before the order drop I may get one of those. Ah I wanted the basic guys from savage crucible but all the ones I wanted sold out. Same with the add on kits. I didn't know about them till it was too late.
>>11905694Ah I didn't know he was more expensive than his previous versions. Thats even worse.
>>11905852>fair>those were both released at the same timeSo SexyIce2019 offficially has released two different colors for the same figure at the same price before. Interesting.
>>11905854I want GITD mantis recolor now. Transparent green-tinted plastic with a painted face and significant painted highlights. Imagine the kino.
If I had talent I'd paint my toys, I've seen some cool customs. But man I'm sure I'd fuck them up, and I don't want to ruin a $90+ action figure.
>>11905933It's not even about talent for me, even if I wanted to do it, you just can't match production level durability in terms of paint, which makes it useless as far as I'm concerned, even more so when the figure is made to be posed a lot.
>>11905954Yeah this, I’ve made a handful of full repaint customs and I hate them. They look okay but are basically statues because if you articulate them the paint on the joints rubs off.
Customs are cool.
>>11905537Hilarious how these companies rush to copy each other.
>>11906051>rush to copyCommander Norn Sahr is a copy of what figure exactly? Pics?
>>11906084Oh, sorry, I meant "inspired by".
>>11904623>>11904689>>11904771A scarf would go a long way on this guy.
>>11906334What about a little over the shoulder messenger bag? Maybe a nice mocha tailored trench to contrast with navy tones?
>>11906334Aliexpress probably has some.Snail Shell's weathered capes would look great with him too>>11906339I'm going to lay you down on avocado toast and cannibalise you slowly
>toxic positivity Who hurt you? You're so fragile and defensive.
>>11906035They are indeed, I wish I weren't a complete loser and could do this shit.
>>11906634The thing that stopped me doing custom is money, would rather buy another new toy
>>11904550honestly with how colorless these guys are, it's almost as if Sexyice is goading those who buy them into repainting them as they wish...I might wanna try that if I can snag some for cheap. I actually like the generic colorscheme since it means it's super-compatible with whatever Kamen Rider heads I might wanna pop on lol.>>11906334Agreed. Question is: any good thin scarves? The kind that don't feel too big and chunky like the usual AliEx scarf I keep seeing that goes up to the mouth and feels bulky in use?
>>11906634You do know there are things you can buy and customize for cheap? Miniatures and Model Kits. Why is it "will never customize anything ever so I'm a complete loser" or "I will potentially ruin this expensive import because I need to gamble with my meager artistic skill without attempting to train myself first" in other words why the two extremes?
>>11906702These might be a little bulky for locust, but they're apparently styled for unkvals. there's also some like hoodie vests that are made for smashers, so even if nothing quite fits the bill there probably will be after he releases. a little searching there's also scarves styled for kamen riders specifically that are relatively small and won't give as bulky a look, but the first few I could find were expensive for Ali accessories.
>>11906711You know I'm starting to think people on social media posting SexyIce figures hate saturation and color. My Unkval Anaconda does not look as dark and grey as any of the pictures I see floating around out there. Maybe the blue on Locust will stand out more in hand.
>>11906717while true, that pic is for selling the scarves, not the figures. making the cloth pop a little better against darker looking figures is to their benefit.
>>11906718I mean look how dark red Unkval Smasher looks on the promo shots when we all know Smasher is a candy red irl.
>>11906717We'll know for sure in a week or so when they show the coloured prototype in person at shanghai wonfes
>>11906709It's understanding why people would be intimidated by this, because it takes some tools, time and knowledge to execute, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. Like you said, people should get their hands wet on simpler, cheaper, more beginner projects before tackling bigger ones. But the knowledge is out there to do these things, all you have to do is look for it. Never give up the pursuit of what you want; hold true to your vision and believe in yourself. #toxic positivity telling you that it's okay to dare
>>11906785>Like you said, people should get their hands wet on simpler, cheaper, more beginner projects before tackling bigger onesIf you start with this and some actual practical advice I wouldn't need to be pissed and call you out. Every time you start with "just do it" on the hardest thing to customize. Have some damn humility instead of the delusional "just try it on your expensive imports" crap.
>>11906789I showed you how it is done, so just be cool. I wasn't recommending everyone with zero experience do this, I was providing an alternative to everyone beating up on sexyice for not having creative colorways.
>>11906793>providingPost a link with a step-by-step. Otherwise you provide nothing but meaningless rhetoric.
>>11906785Keep your shit to the custom general. We don't want it here.
>>11906806These are all stills from a video. I can't post it because it has facebook in the url. Not hard to look this up with that guys name and facebook though. Also why are you still being an absolute jerk? You are posting in bad-faith and only want to bully the thread. Piss off already and get off my case.
>>11906809You too, shit-stirrer.>it's impossible, you'll ruin your shit!>>>proves it can be done>NO NO NO! TAKE IT OUT OF MY THREAD, NOW!!
>>11906810We do have a Custom Toy General. I don't know why you think every toy collector should consider customizing. Toy collecting and toy customizing are allowed to be two seperate hobbies. This thread is for toy collectors.
>>11906813Stop putting words in my mouth. I never said ever that everyone should do this. Shut the fuck up already, you lost.
>>11906815>Stop putting words in my mouthYou have not posted a single pic of toys in your collection that fit the OP. Every single one of your posts is about customizing toys and bitching about people not wanting your advice. Point out the lie.
>>11906815You're such a loser. Stick to your containment general
>>11906816>Point out the lie.>>11905041>>if you fuck up I get to call you a moron>>no I never have done any paint work on an expensive articulated figure beforeParanoid about my post being a gotcha to get you to fuck up your toy, so a lie.>>11905803>I paint miniaturesProof or it didn't happen. >>11905805>when the retard spouting off has never stripped and painted a professionally painted premium painted figure ever. Something I've actually done and stressed about.Proof or it didn't happen. I never even claimed anything about my works, you don't know me so in earnest you're lying constantly about what I have and have not done. >>11905954>you just can't match production level durability in terms of paint, which makes it useless as far as I'm concerned, even more so when the figure is made to be posed a lot.Well, that was a lie, because people do it every day. You even acknowledge there's an entire thread about it.You also deleted your original "he's being a mean toxic positive person, and he's a troll because he won't respond to me!" bitch post because of how bad it made you look.So yeah, pretty much been lying through your teeth to sound like you're the sheriff of this thread the entire time. I shan't be posting any further, continue to argue with your straw-man by yourself and kindly leave the thread in peace.
>>11906828>ha ha I said you're strawmanning so I winAgain, do you even own any figures or plan to own any figures related to the OP? Do you plan to customize your own expensive chinese import articulated figure? If none of that applies to you then I don't need to make up a strawman to say you don't belong in this thread.
What a lark. Thanks for bumping the thread.
>>11906853>filenameKek
>>11906809You don't speak for us. There's been customs posted in sexyice threads for years now. Remember that time the thread participated in digitally painting their own Locust color schemes? I remember. But yeah, not in *his* thread. No, sir.Stop giving people in this thread the wrong idea, the high end toys are always on topic, no matter who's paint is on them or off them.
>>11906868You can't even post photos of upcoming releases. You NEED to write an essay discussing the image you posted on an image board.
>>11906878That is an upcoming release, retard-kun.
>>11906868Posting cool custom figures and discussing those figures is fine. Treating the thread like this is /cg/ and trying to call people retards because they think expensive chinese figures should have interesting color schemes right out of the box is not.
>>11906882Stop policing the thread, troll. No one asked you to speak for us.
>>11906878>I don't want to discuss stuff in a forum!>I just wanna post images of stuff without even typing out the name of it!Okay.
>>11906881Go on. Use your words.>>11897997

>>11906885Okay, fine. Lets see what other anons say about "customizing their figures.>>11905933>>11905954>>11906012>>11906682None of these posts are mine.
I love how this samefag believes he's won every argument while simultaneously shitting his pants over nothing. Pretty cringe; I'm already tired of him stirring the pot and moving goal posts.Serious question time:Will they retool Mantis or will they make another Femme Fatal Vermin? How long will they deny future foid releases?
>>11906898>will they make another Femme Fatal Vermin?She's already on the way to becoming a prototype anon. She was last thread's OP picture.
>>11906899Oh yeah I forgot that was a she. I'm glad they are stopping the sausage assembly line to give us some more lusty vermin.
>>11906898didn't they post a silhouette of some kind of isopod or aquatic looking one shortly after ambusher? they still haven't revealed it but it looked more femme than their last few bugs, my hopes are high.I'd love an update/retooled mantis with functional wrists and maybe some better forearm joints, but I don't think it's in the cards from sexyice at this point, they seem to be pushing for new rather than rereleases, if it comes it'll probably be years down the line.
>>11906900I'm surprised ant wasn't more femme coded, it seems so obvious given that they're... ants.
>>11906901it's just such a shame their first release is the hardest to get and the worst one in terms of engineering and paint. I really do hope they revisit her, or make a hornet or something.
>>11906902Imagine if they end up making a big booty Queen Ant Vermin, unf.
>>11906902You know that makes sense too, but they clearly missed the mark. I never opened my ants now that I think about it...
>>11906903I don't mind her paint that much, but the engineering leap between her and the eliminators is so massive it gets depressing. I'd love a bee/hornet/wasp girl from sexyice.
>>11906902>>11906904>>11906905Why don't you make custom parts for your Ant to make it more femme-coded? Don't you guys know that's possible? Stop complaining and get to work on making your dreams come true!
>>11906785if these figure where not FOMO i would try but since ITS FOMO i dont even think of doing anything
>>11906909Yeah dude, you totally can sculpt anything you like. Thanks. Care to post examples?
>>11906927He's taking the piss out of the customiser guy, it's sarcasm.
>>11906939The crybaby is still belly aching? Why, I hardly noticed.
>>11906939>taking the piss out>sarcasmUgh you're so paranoid. What's wrong inspiring people to be better? Have a little confidence anon. It's good for you!
>>11906927>Care to post examples?Ever heard of 3D printing anon? You should buy a 3D printer. It'll be so fun designing anything you can think up and fit it to your existing figures.
That's two meme images in one day. A new record for the thread.
>>11906960>animu eyesIt's all so tiresome, I'm glad they went with blank/red eyes for the Mantis
this one will be released soon.
>>11907243
>>11907245A lot of it looks awesome until>One expression face with no moveable eyes
>>11907360That's a lot to expect from a 50 dollar figure
>>11907360Oh but anon don't you know? You could stop complaining and simply make custom faces yourself!
>>11907245im still not sure how large these woman are, i dont mind having her be a big girl but if its gonna tower even my biggest figure that a problem
>>11907360Wow it's just like 93% of all toys
>>11906898>>11906900>>11906902I heard somewhere that the Ant was female. Just didn't look much like it.
>>11907360I HATE NAGGERS
>>11907512About 17cm so like 6.7 inches.
>>11906853>I shiggy diggyGot a genuine chortle
>>11907587
what are they gonna do after the locust, this is the only figure anyone gives a shit about
>>11907599They still need to release that witch
>>11907599back to bug girls >>11906899
>>11904380hope 5KToys ships mine soon, pre-ordered basically as soon as she was announced and only today found out people have started getting her
>>11907599I'm still waiting for pic related
>>11907619why? looks dumb
>We have Manticora at home.
>>11907631They are much closer to equals than one being vastly above the other. This one has a bunch of weapons, a couple heads, wings, a lot more features. Only thing they have in similarity is that they're big insectoids. Insect themed action figures are the flavour of the month over in China right now. Whether this guy lives up to the potential, we'll have to wait and see.
test
>>11907600The anime same-face kills any interest I would have had in that.
>>11907518So 93% of toys is dogshit
>>11907652sorry but the artistry/engineering behind it isnt there. sexyice are some of the highest quality stuff out there
any news from giveme5ive figures? or did they died after airoki?
>>11908057>giveme5ive>airokiSo typed the company name in a search engine and looks like indeed there are no new giveme5ive figures other than pic related. Looks like they're either gone or renamed themselves.
>>11908057>>11908069If they went under I'd understand it, their first release was such a piece of dogshit. I don't think it's on the level of the Ice Figz Spike, but plenty of reviews complained about looseness and cheap-feeling quality. I got one despite the complains because I love the design, I'll give them that. But in hand it feels really crappy, and really loose to boot, those can be fixed granted, but to pay USD80+ for a toy to be fixed they have to fuck themselves.
>>11908069>>11908074It's easy to get swept up by nice promo shots and the high price that gives up the idea that something is quality. It's felt like an era where suddenly all these Chinese figures are high quality, but that is definitely not the case. This one was a bit of a reality check. There's SexyIce, then there's this, and the price is still fairly far off, but the quality is even further. Then there's thing like Mess Toys where the quality is solid and the price is good. Probably better to wait and see for any of these newer companies rather than putting money down upfront.
>>11908122Well said, whenever there's a preorder I better check what the Chinese think about it before pulling the trigger.
>>11908122>Probably better to wait and see for any of these newer companiesShould kind of always be the case really. Sometimes you can tell when something isn't bullshit or they have some established connections, the designer is known, the IP, if they are using one, is known to have decent expectations of its related products etc. but the first figure of a new studio is always a gamble. This upcoming silicon Kratos is one for me, I not sure exactly what it is, maybe the rendered look of the promos, the supposed special silicone body, the insane detail, just something makes me think it's bullshit. I suspect many people will get burnt on that one. AI slop has made and is going to make this so much worse as well.
>>11908306there is a video with the prototype and it look amazing, sadly i would not fuck with the silicon
>>11908350Yeah I just don't believe it though, that's my point. I hope it comes out just as shown, but I am dubious.
¥15,202 for kamen rider
>>11908806absurd
>>11908818yeah then add at least 40-60 for tariffs and shipping
>>11908806Man, I want him bad, but this is outside my single figure limit, I hope some chinese sites list him a little lower.
>>11908926that was hobby genki's price which will be the cheapest nip site. All of my chinese prices have been high as well lately.
>>11908929Yeah looking at it now. If Gundamit or, *gasp* Bombusbee get it'll almost be cheaper for me, but aside from that I'm guess that Hobby Genki one will be the cheapest, ends up at about £85 shipped which is grim.
*almost certainly be cheaper.
>>11908806>>11908818That's about what Anaconda Unk costAlso 14740 on amiami
>>11907599Elevision, if it ever happens
>>11906898This one would look great in black :)
52toy Engineer is out
>>11909151
>>11909152Looking pretty good, interested to see how big he'll look besides other figures I've got
>>11909159There is a review with a few comparisons>https://youtu.be/MXG2MvK330g
anyone have any experience buying from 5KToys?
>>11909151>>11909152Yawn, call me when they do a darker armor one with the pilot helmet.
I preordered Acridid. Probably the last of their figures I’ll get, nothing else they have teased or lined up looks appealing and this will be the last of their “first wave” of designs that I really wanted.
i like the blue bug, sexy ice are just lazy niggers with the jet black shit
>>11909732when smasher came out I mostly saw people clowning on the bright red football player aesthetic. the black shit could well be a reasonable reaction to public sentiment.
>>11909585I'll do the same soon, just holding out a little longer in the hopes Gundamit get him, but I'll just AmiAmi if not I guess. I'm also kind of interested to see how Nottaa's cyber ninja looks at Wonderfest, so I might hold off until then.
>>11909737If you're talking about Acridid, he's actually a mix of greys, blacks, navy blue, green and some red, their photos are just really de-saturated, but he does have dark coloured tones.
is Acridid even available on Bumbusbee ? I can't find a listing for it. Amiami would be more expensive for me.
>>11909769No, they shifted to AmiAmi as their official seller away from Bombusbee, we don't know if they will get any for sale, but it's looking unlikely. I asked Gundamit a few days ago and they said they couldn't be sure either, but as of then Sexy Ice hadn't made the figure available to them.
>>11908306>>11908350The moment I read this will have a silicon body I backed out, I don't own any, but from what I read they are dust magnets and will definitely crumble over time, no matter how careful you are.
>>11904689Decided to pick up two, apparently he's meant to be one of a kind but a guy like that needs a equally great rival.
>>11909861lol
>>11909861He's supposed to be three psyches in one body, that's what each mask represents, so you can do a sort of Tyler Durden self-fight setup with two.
>>11909151>>11909152>>11909164Necasisters... I don't feel so good...
>>11909867What's funny?
>>11910024Obviously the new one is better cos of articulation, I actually think the Neca looks more accurate, the face and especially the shoulder and traps shape is much more like the movie than the 52toys one.
So locust only open on amiami? Kinda sucks just like when they partnered with bbb
>>11910132It's up elsewhere.
>>11910132If you read the thread you'd know. I posted about it like a day before the ami post.
>>11910103>the face and especially the shoulder and traps shape is much more like the movie than the 52toys one.Not really
>>11910448Whoops, forgot the pic
>>11910450head shape: NECAface: 52Toys
>>11910481>head shape: NECA>face: 52Toys>>11910024>>11910450>52toys and costume: rounded skull>Neca: square skull???
>>11910024Neca one looks like Peter Stormare
>>11910553or Kevin James
>>11910024The 52toys version is lacking the huge traps which are core to the look, which the neca one did better. Still looks great though and I like the face better.
>>11911085Cute
>>11910095He's laughing because he just realized they're not releasing a repaint. Customization Chad's stay winning though.
>>11911090>they're not releasing a repaintProofs?
>>11910132whats wrong with amiami?
>>11911125He's a one of a kind character, not a grunt to army build with. It's Solid Snek but in bug form.
>>11911165too expensive, im hoping it will be on gundamit so i can use my points
>>11911174Okay...so? Solid Snake Figma also got a recolor based on MGS2. A single character can come in multiple colors.
>>11911180locust goes on 598 yuan on taobao, so about the same price as amiami thoe.
How's AmiAmi, rapey with shipping like Bombusbee? Never shopped there before.
>>11911340They charge the most.
>>11911350So there is no way to get SexyIce figures without overpaying in one way or another? Man, collecting this brand is annoying as fuck.
>>119113635k or gundamnit. If you're not in the states then get out of where you live.
>>11911528Neither of them are listing this figure, you could have taken 10 seconds to check that before answering in ignorance.
>>11911726I should have added, in Gundamit's case, I asked them before it came out and they said Sexy Ice hadn't made it available to them, but they might. At this point I doubt it, especially considering they are on holiday for a week. I assume anyone who already put deposits on their previous listing will get refunded.

>>11911913Well they are going to busy at Wonderfest. Have you guys seen how many fucking insect man figures are being made? It's one of the most ridiculous trends I have ever seen, it's like the action figure equivalent of Vampire Survivor clones, who and why would people want this many of such a random niche concept? Creativity flatlining.
>>11912013The same happened with Jada's Street Fighter. Now even JoyToy is going to make some.
>>11912011It's mostly just prototype, you will see it in 2-3 years anyway>>11912013Most of the bug is just lacking something when i compared it to manticora
>>11912027>It's mostly just prototype, you will see it in 2-3 years anywayI'm sure a fair bit of it never sees release.

New Inart OC
>>11912378I don't think the heatboys eliminator was considered pureice
>>11912398Okay, so they set the precendent after that and now we have two Pure Ice variants.
Starting to think isopod was ai generated to sell more scuba unks
>>11912127Cool but the three limbs feels like overkill. Not gonna shell out money for something I won’t display in full armor.>>11912142Now THIS is my kind of overkill. It will have the blandest color scheme ever but I will have so much fun with those thicc legs and that backpack. They got me for one more round, at least.
>>11912063>>11912091Aight these look great, hopefully the articulation is too. Joints look better than the skull toyz ones.
>>11912197>pick up that can of bug spray
>>11912127lol really?
>>11912528>>11912455It would unironically look better if it just had the one in the back but bigger
>>11912530I almost wonder if they'll do him like the scuba unk and have the two on the sides be additional ones you can buy

Inart doing Matrix
>>11912633They are doing a ton of stuff, their random Adam Smasher looks great. The Guts is dream figure tier.
Guts in question.
>>11912633>>11912634>>11912635Oh boy more from the every character is two meters tall company.
>>11912656Again, I assume you are the guy who said the same thing in the Mafex thread, this isn't true. >>11912649
>>11912656I just went through some AnthonyCustoms reviews of InArt stuff and there was a mix.
>>11912656>>11912665Man it must suck being a scalefag
>>11912670If you say this effigy is mathmatically to scale 1/12 of the character's, in this case actual real life actors, height I should be able to call you out when the math comes out wrong.
>>11912661>this isn't true>Inart Christian Bale Batman is 6.5 inches tall meaning if you scaled him up to 1:1 he'd be 2 meters tallWhere's the lie?
>>11912673>in this case actual real life actors height It's interesting because I'm not sure that's what people want. I mean on camera, often actors will be made to look taller than they are, or directors avoid shots where tall and short actors contrast too much.I imagine it's preferable to people if most are fudged towards 6 foot.
>>11912661Wut. Its a common complaint about ianrt stuff where they cant even scale properly in their own fucking lines.
>>11912678>it's preferable to people if most are fudged towards 6 foot.Okay then why does Inart insist on making all their figures scale as if every character is significantly taller than 6 foot?
>>11912126Who's making this and when does it go up?
>>11912779Venus Toys. No release info that I know of.
>>11912126He looks kinda tubby
>>11912653Wait what the fuck? When did they get a Cyberpunk license? Is it game or Edgerunners again and do we know of anything else coming? The detail on this looks really good compared to Jada's soft anime sculpt. Oh and if they have Keanu's likeness rights praying for Johnny Silverhand…
>>11912881Judging by that Adam Smasher prototype it looks like Inart got the game license. Finally someone besides the clunky McFarlane junk and the terribly messy Figma face prints that are also undersized.
>>11912126>>11912821What's the source?
>>11912948It's a promotional model being shown by the Venus Toys booth at the 2026 Wonfes Shanghi event. That's all there is to know. Venus Toys does preorders on the usual sites so just keep checking those every few days.
>>11912956Thanks, I always wanted a CJ figure so I'm very excited.
>>11911528>If you're not in the states then get out of where you live.Americans get raped on the shipping the most though.
>>11912858Too much Cluckin' Bell, not enough gym time.
>>11913345Saying most good sites aren't based in or ship to Europe.
>>11913446damn, wonder if they'll do Motoko or just saw an opportunity to do him while everyone else was.
>>11913589First interesting thing I've seen from Nottaa Extreme. Did whomever posted that get pics of the Nottaa Selina and Fang in the background? Looks like a second DLC set.
>>11912937>>Judging by that Adam Smasher prototype it looks like Inart got the game license.I got my hopes up misreading that as Adama Sandlerprototype"
>>11913593Could probably even jew us with two releases. Tacvest Motoko and gynoid in kimono.
>>11913684It's been four years...
One of Inart's oc figures. Reminds me of the Tyrant from Resident Evil.

>>11913720
>>11913716Who is this guy, is he from something? Fantastic looking face.Thanks for posting the pics btw.
Holy shit trauma team too. Keep the game figures coming
>>11904620>>11904623>>11904563>>11904550Anyone know what's going on with the distribution for this guy? Why don't the usual Chinese stores have him? I don't wanna pay the fucking rip-off shipping prices from Japan. Shipping from China is sooo much cheaper. >>11912349Bought the original and prefer the og colors, but honestly it's really fucking annoying that they are already adding features for re-paints.Don't screw the people who bought the normal one by adding extra shit in a repaint.
>>11913894The less places they have to send inventory the less money they spend. Maximum profit. I bet Gundamit will cancel all SexyIce2019 pre-orders like they did with Ant.
>>11913922Wouldn't it be cheaper for them to send the inventory within their own country than sending it to nip-land??Bro I am so done ordering shit from Japan when the cheapest option is $27 and then I get import-taxed $30+ every single time. Chinese shipping is less than $2 and I never get taxed.
>>11913928>wouldn't it be cheaperIt's about popularity too. Hundreds of people use the Chinese sites. Thousands if not millions use Japanese sites like AmiAmi. Couple that with raising the prices and SexyIce2109 is in the big leagues now alongside Max Factory and TOMYTEC.
I've been going back and forth for days and now I've finally ordered the locust. I feel retarded, silly amount for a random oc figure, especially with all the Wonderfest reveals. Amiami is easy to cancel with right? I'm such a moron.
>>11913945I mean, InArt and LPZZ/UPF are in the big-leagues now too, but they haven't suddenly stopped selling from Chinese stores. I'll email gundammit after their holiday break and ask what's going on. >>11913963Doubt it, maybe people will hope on pure ice variant and sleep on this one, but I don't think it will sit like the dogs and ant, this one is way cooler.
>>11913835Smasher is that smol in the game?
>>11913975>sleep on this onenot the chinese
>>11913963Very funny anon.
>things happened and I may not be able to get all the toys I wanted because moneyMan that fucking sucks, damn it all
>>11914113Sell some toys that you don't care, i do it all the time
>>11914225nta but do you just ebay them mostly?
>>11914480yes
>>11904761yeah, I like how there aren't any gaudy colors in the line so far, but the smashers were a fun side dish
>>11913958>Amiami is easy to cancel with right?You can cancel with them but they really don't like it. Just be super apologetic in your request.
>>11913928Anyone remember when Small Packet SAL was a thing and you could ship a nendo halfway across the world for $7?Pepperidge farm remembers.
>>11914480Mercari is better
>>11912349>>11913894I didn't know these were gonna go up for preorder so soon. I also prefer the original colors, but also am not super impressed with it as a figure. It feels like it has some unnatural limits on its articulation and is just kind of a letdown as a dog. I love the harness on these but between the colors and the articulation I'm not buying one just for that, so this is actually gonna be the first sexyice offering I'm fully just out on.
>>11912349feel like these would look 10 times better if they kept the red eyes
>>11913958>>11915062I read Amiami is pretty anal about cancellations, they can even terminate your account if do it a lot. I seldom order with them due to that.
>>11912349iDog colorway when?Glossy white with clear blue parts. Make it 2004 again.
>>11915167>>11915062Fuck, man.
>>11904771>Manticora used to have red-shading on the horns, claws and fingersYo, WHAT THE FUCK.I'm actually fuming that they dropped that.
>>11915435Here is eliminator head btw
>>11913716look like that spiderman actor tom holland or something
>>11915562The nose and hair ruined it. Take those away and he looks like a proper cyborg. Less Raiden from Metal Gear Solid and more Adam Smasher.
>>11915562that looks like ass desu i'd rather just think of them as skullheads like skeletor
>>11915562Manticora needed the extra hit of color. Eliminator didn't need the weeb-head.
>>11915873The eyes give them too much humanity. Also pale/shaved soldier heads with implants would look better.
>>119158732020 design
>>11912349those will start yellowing fast
>>11916400The white bioroids are definitely going to yellow and it pisses me off… I think I will just put mine back in the box and pray that it doesn’t
>>11916400>>11916421>SexyIce>yellowingNice try. Smasher came out in January of this year with a white helmet. No yellowing at all. Meanwhile all these other brands out of China suffer yellowing within six months. Even Mantis from the start of 2025 has no yellowing issues and she's 99% white plastic.

>>11916400the white parts on my smasher are already yellowing
>>11916542>white parts>pluralSmasher only has one white part on an alternate head. You can't even lie right. Kek.
>>11916511basedcan't hex the sex
>>11916558you can literally see 2 white parts on your own pic retard and the letters are white too. Why am I even bothering with some retard that doesn't even own the figure. Stupid shill
>>11916608do you think metallic paint is white? are you retarded, anon?
>>11916608just ignore glorp he doesn't own toys and always shills chink shit
>>11916608>2 white partsSmasher is the one in red. His helmet is the only white plastic part of him. Feel free to name the other white part you're talking about.
>>11916635glorp the helmet has 2 white parts you are embarrassing yourself beyond belief. You are actually retarded
>>11916638>glorp>glorp>glorpYou want this to stick so bad. Also, no, if you can't pull the white plastic off into two seperate pieces without breaking it the helmet is one white part as intended by the designer.
>>11916649glorp having a melty because everyone can see how retarded he is. Helmet is white on both sides you are literally making it only worse for yourself glrop. You are such a fucking idiot and chink shit shill. WE CAN SEE IT IN YOUR PICTURE YOU MENTALLY ILL IDIOT AHAHAHHA
>>11916542May I see it?
>>11916664Ah, no, because he is lying.
>>11916511Retard, don’t comment on things if you don’t know the background. The yellowing applies to light/white colored pok joints which the bioroids have. Mantis didn’t use pok and I don’t have red smasher but if the white is painted rather than molded and/or it’s not pok, it’s irrelevant. There’s literally a bunch of pictures of yellowed pok joints, it’s happening, stop being annoying and defending this shit and be capable of admitting your brand is capable of making oopsies rather than being blindly loyal.
>>11916857>There’s literally a bunch of pictures of yellowed pok jointsUntil you post a SexyIce figure with yellowing joints your claims are worthless.
>>11916542Proof?
>>11917123See >>11916781
>>11917257I wonder if SexyIce ever did an Unkval Eliminator 2.0 would this guy buy a third of their inventory all over again? There's no pics of him collecting an army of Smashers.
Usually get everything off Gundamit, what's the next best store? They sent me an e-mail earlier saying they're uncertain if they'll actually have Locust or not
>>11917492SexyIce wants to be Japanese now so AmiAmi I guess.
>>11917492Best was genki.
>>11917525>>11917601Amiami is slightly cheaper but which one has lower shipping costs?
>>11917639Genki will be cheaper most likely but all together will be high. Ami really likes to double the shipping box sizes while genki tries to keep it more reasonable. This is experience from spending 50k usd with ami and about 12k with genki. There's no real winning with buying from Japan unless you ship multiple items in one order. Shipping will be at least half price of the figure most likely then add at least 20 for tariffs.
>>11913708Am I wrong in thinking this figure looks female in terms of proportions?
>>11917492Bbts just got theirs up for order if you don't want to deal with tariffs. Probably about the same price lol
>>11919014The stomach looks feminine. Maybe it will look better painted.
Thread is already on page 5. New thread when we hit 500 posts?
>>11919126The thread doesn't even get bumped anymore. Did you not notice?
Is Amiami down? I tried to po the Locust.
New thread is up>>11920338
