>We’ve created a brick that plays back.

>It's our biggest innovation since... erm... ever! The LEGO® SMART Play™ System is here. Get ready for SMART Bricks, SMART Tags and SMART Minifigures to add a whole new dimension to LEGO play. (YES WE’RE EXCITED.)

So I guess this is the future of plastic brick toys now. Companies are making everything "smart". At least Lumibricks still has their light gimmick

What do we think of this? Pre-orders open tomorrow by the way.

Why do toy companies have this fascination with making toys that have lights and sounds and then pretending it’s some kind of revolutionary technology? Hasbro did it with CommTech and Force Link for Star Wars, and LEGO did it with the whole “Smart Play” thing. Why?

>loving a neat little new gimmick toy is bad because....it just is okkkk!!!!
Why are r#dditors like this? The smart brick/smart play system from lego is awesome, did anyone see this video?

This is fire and I can't wait to buy the new sets, also the target demo is said to be 6-8 year olds, according to lego so why are manchildren seething so hard? This toy is awesome. I hope all themes get smart bricks. Why do they think it's cool to hate on something this awesome???

I saw this really cool toy video, and wanted to share it here :3

How do you feel about buying toys of stuff from movies you haven't seen, games you haven't played, etc? Not just like, I collect Marvel Legends and I haven't read any of the comics featuring this character but she looks cool so I'm adding her to my collection. I'm talking full on, this is from a property you know nothing about, if anyone asks you anything based on the assumption that you must be familiar with the source material you'll just have to shrug.

Like, I like this vaguely evil looking chick. Never played Final Fantasy 16, have no plans to, have no idea who she is or what her deal is. But cool toy, kinda want it.

Remember that billy and mandy episode where billy was infatuated with a power rangers/dinosaucers combination parody and everyone called him a geeky faggot child for liking toys still? That episode hit really close to home hence why it was so fucking funny to me

This is clearly a cheetos catgirl, will SAMG still deny the existence of fembots and keep the cardbots gay?

Its become clear to me there is a sect of terminally online autists whos lives have been taken over by the compulsive urge to constantly express their opinions regarding action figures despite not owning any. I have coined the term “fanboy” for this anon, as they bear multiple similarities to a sports fan. They love certain figures, hate others and empathetically assert themselves as a relevant opinion on subjects they have no personal experience in. I see them as an existential threat to the community and the entire toy industry as a whole. The fanboy, when made desperate will outright lie about owning toys they have never touched. They therefore are detrimental to us all as they spread false information throughout the entire web of the toy world. Moving forward, no opinion or statement on this board should be taken seriously without a photographic proof of the fact that they own the toy they are presenting an opinion on. This is the simple way we know your opinion is valid and you have “skin in the game” so to speak. Thank you for your time.

I dont want to ruin a general, so ill post it outside. I've fucking had it with Lego. It's never the prices that bother me, it's the fact that their builds comparably suck to what Mega Construx has done better. For the latter, we get better, more posable minifigs, distinctive bricks and parts, and much cleaner builds that do as much to avoid relying on part reuse. Lego's minifigs are the same 5poa shits and still use parts that are are only versatile because they HAVE to be, resulting in a blocky inaccurate mess that pays little tribute to its source.

Toji was literally the only figure I was looking forward to and now I had to cancel it. I can't even imagine how scammed I would have felt if it didn't leak. They want 100$ for this....

This is it.

NEVER again will I preorder from slopdai. Nothing but garbage and scams. Worst import line. Worst QC. Fucking embarrassing to shit something this bad out, fully knowing how much people wanted it. FUCK Bandai.
