So in case you don’t know, NECA made a Donatello’s Lab from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or TMNT for short. This was a $300!!! made to order set. When they finally started shipping it out, people were getting multiple sets even if they only ordered one. NECA neglected to say anything about this for like a month, until they sent everyone a threatening email that they need to return the set. Their claim is that they were “changing the warehouse system” and it led to duplicated orders. Well, now they’re saying that if you don’t return the set, you will be charged for any additional sets, despite this being a clear violation of FTC laws. What does /toy/ think of this situation? Is NECA in the right? Are people who keep their labs stealing from collectors?

Is it possible to use credit cards on Ebay? It's just tariffs are likely to screw up prices.

>Starting August 29, 2025, the U.S. government will suspend the de minimis exemption that previously allowed shipments under $800 to enter duty-free.
>As a result, all shipments to the United States may now be subject to flat-rate import fees starting at $80 USD, with charges increasing depending on the product category and country of origin.
In addition, there are strong indications that Japan Post may suspend shipments to the U.S. as early as Wednesday, August 27, 2025
>As a precaution, we have decided to temporarily suspend all shipments to the U.S. beginning Tuesday, August 26, 2025.

We truly are living in the end times for collectors, aren’t we?

Previous Thread >>11508977

It's a Dodge Ram, a Tootsie Toy. The odd thing is that it appears to be a 1999 model, even though it's the same color as last year's model, and the truck name says 1998 under the hood. I also don't know if those stickers are official or if the guy who sold the toy to my dad and later gave it to me just put them on. Please help.

Just preordered anyway. Can any hot toys enjoyers tell me if there is usually a big disparity between the prototype and the shipped product? Also, post pics your xenos - I'm a tourist and interested to see what else is out there.

Barbie Playmobils are coming in summer 2026. This is the second Mattel IP to become a Playmobil theme, following Monster High, which is releasing this fall. Masters of the Universe is also rumored for next year, and it seems Playmobil is gearing up for the DC license too (which Mattel will have next year for all toys, while LEGO still holds it for building block sets). With the new Mattel contract, Playmobil may be able to make DC-themed items as well. They're testing the waters with Kinder Surprise toys this fall.

Thoughts? Personally, I think Mattel is interested in buying Playmobil and wants to see how these lines perform. Since Playmobil's parent company isn't doing so well, I wouldn't be surprised if we hear about a sale soon.

i despise these things so fucking much. im a girl toy autist and i ocassionally check out local toy stores in hopes of finding some deadstock from my childhood but i never find it all i ever find are these hideous pedobait lol suprise figures. crazy how all of the actually cute toys aimed at femminine audience like shopkins or num noms got discontinued but these abominations persisted throughout years.
