How important is shelving when it comes to displaying your collection? Seems odd to spend so much on something like that, especially since things like Detolf have only gotten more expensive.

I collect Converges. I have a couple of acrylic step risers, but I'm not sure if there's a better way to display them and I'm running out of room. I kind of feel like they need to go upwards. I was thinking something like a shot glass case, but the problem is that a lot of them have bits that make them too wide or tall, especially the Gundam ones.

>>10757011
Anything can work really. Depends on how big/how many characters you want in your diorama. Plenty of people make and sell 15x15 dioramas for detolfs. Check out if this is the type of thing you're going for. I've seen others where they put a background behind the diorama, too.

Yikes. I bought 3 JTs for the price of that Termie.

I don't really see how this line is sustainable at these prices. With DC I can see lunatics buying "muh iconic looks" at any price due to out of control nostalgia. But I can't see casual 40k fans (and I'm in this camp) putting up 30 bucks for a basic figure, and I can't see hardcore 40k fans buying into this when JoyToy offers higher quality. Whereas previously at $20 I could see them getting a casual 40k audience.

How is this thread off topic? It's a recurring general that's been around for awhile.
Just because OP put an off-hand comment about another figure of the same character? That wouldn't be off topic either since the OP picture is the same character.

it seems to be pretty much everything, particularly toy-collector-focused shit.
I think there's a lot of idiot execs who still have this monolithic idea of how success works in their heads. You see videogame publishers all the time going "Well this is set to be our third biggest success in history... but we want 1st place material only, so it's canceled. what else do we have? nothing? well good, we'll put out nothing but the best!"

Kid Goku would have it if he wasn't normally wearing pants. There aren't many male characters who wear a dress and also go commando as their default outfit, Gash just happens to be one.

Can we talk about what went wrong ?
8 replies and 1 image omitted. Click here to view.
>>
Are the new Raman Toy releases going to be 1:18 scale?
>>
>>10756751
Those were Sky Commanders, and the figures were of a similar scale to mask. As were the Dino Rider pilots, among some other toylines I can't remember but know existed.

It wasn't just the small scale of the figures that killed the line, with how complex some of the vehicles were, making them bigger would've most likely made them more cost prohibitive. MASK was a huge hit when they first came out and is a line that's still fondly remembered today by fans from back in the day, moreso then many other lost 80s toy lines.

....but there were a LOT of 80s toylines.

Really it was more likely market saturation combined with the good old fashioned progression of time that killed the line. It was way easier back then to come up with some crazy toy concept, throw a cartoon together in a year or two to market it and then flood the shelves with the new hotness of your product. Companies were more willing to take big risks for lesser rewards, so there was always something new to compete with. With that much stuff coming out, only the best of the best would ever really survive in the long run. Nowadays with a different economy, more restrictions, cheaper alternatives and generally a completely different world, it's just not as easy to come out with random off the whim toys. So even as popular as it was, it's not a line that was great enough to claw it's way to a full comeback, despite many copycat attempts.
>>
>>10754260
Regarding that they had alot of toys, nothing was wrong. It just followed the normal toy cycle.
The only thing that went wrong was that they didnt kept the toyline alive for years. Like Turtles, Transformers or Masters of the Universe.

Sky Commanders commercials were great. Also the Tyco Battletech figures were under 3 inch as well. And that toy line failed as well.

They've only done three series general retail of gashaponquest. And they sell out super fast.

A lot of figures are online gashapon only and do hard to get a hold of.

>>10750212
For diorama you gotta look in shops. Yodobashi camera/Bic camera/ Loft / Yokyu Hans/ Yamada denki will usually have a blind box area in the toy section full of re: ment stuff that has a lot that you're looking for.

>A lot of figures are online gashapon only and do hard to get a hold of.

I don't even get what an "Online Gashapon" is, does that mean you buy it online and they mail you a random thing? That just seems kinda silly as half the fun is working the actual machine.

But yea, I'm not happy about how rare the "special" stuff is, especially considering it seems to be the vast majority of the line at this point. I would love to get my hands on the Northern Earth Potal Guild set and some of the weapons from the Online Version of the third wave. The swords and polearms from that set are really nice and simple and would be fantastic for background guildies like the North Portal guys.
