>>11220676Not every comic shop carries toys in great quantity.
Granted, I really don't know anyone at comic shops now. Pre-COVID i was pretty friendly with a couple of managers, so my most of my knowledge comes from the 2010s. And other anons have spoken about their experiences as well
>>11220560Second guy is a NEVEC trooper from the Lost Planet toyline by Toy Notch. Seriously one of the greatest quality toys I've ever handled. The smoothest joints ever, and I own figures from literally 99% of the toylines /toy/ talks about. Only the face paint apps on the real faces are completely borked, but most figures are just masked and they look amazing. The figures feel like they're expertly machined metal equipment, because their tolerances are perfect.
I think i only bought two NEVEC troopers, but i could be wrong. I was just casually buying the Lost Planet figures just to fill in space for free shipping, but i wish i had bought more. I really only wanted the Hardballer mech you see in the back, but eventually bought everything (more than once with army builders). You can see one of my Lost Planet pirates in the back, next to Sub Zero.
... and sadly, their mecha wasn't as nice. Granted, it's a foot tall so it's more difficult to engineer, but it was delayed for over a year and switched factories
>>11220395Your reading comprehension a shit, third worlder. Was talking about how there's multiple anons being cyberstalked and trolled because they're the few anons left on this board who regularly post their buys. Poorfags are seemingly angry they can afford to buy toys on a regular basis, whereas before we used to have regular threads of people showing off their latest purchases. You really can't do that anymore, which lines up with how much costs have risen for toys.
But i really love how your argument has moved this far, when it all started from japanese toy companies love raping their collectors by charging 2-5x more than western companies for the same quality figures
