>>10714845if you only collect the space marines, you probably won't feel bad about it, especially if you;'re only paying $30.
It's when you expand your collection that you'll feel regrets. It's akin to how I collect Jazware's Halo toyline, where the toys themselves are pretty good and cheap, but the scale is pretty bad. Brutes are undersized. normal soldiers are undersized. It made me quit buying their aliens, and i just started buying the overpriced McFarlane brutes and elites on the secondary market. Yeah, they're a bit oversized, but I'd rather have them being much more imposing than the Jazwares figures.
Feel the same way with Joytoy's Space Marines. They're all manlets and their prices are way too much. I can get a much larger Hiya figure for less and exceeds the quality Joytoy outputs. Better paint, better plastics, and are more poseable.
Lately I've only been buying Jopytoy's xenos and was going to venture into the Imperial Army, but they made all the normal soldiers all cartoony and wide. So they don't fit with my other 1:18 lines, or even the other normal wh40k humans that Joytoy released earlier, like the nuns and nazi stormtroopers.
I've been a big wh40k fan for decades and have a very large collection of all sorts of toys in all scales, not just 1:18 like pic.
Also, the Brute in the back isn't all that oversized. Maybe a human forehead taller than he should be. Great figure that holds up today still, so itfeels worth its price despite being an opened used figure and cost $35
