LOL
Holy fucking fuckwit. LOL

You know you can find a TON of broken toys for EVERYTHING on ebay, right?
Shit gets old and kids played with them, while losing all their accessories in the process. Then they find out about ebay and see that other people sell broken, incomplete toys, and want in on that $$$ for garbage.

Point of the matter is that when these toys were brand new and NOT played by little slobbering toddlers, nothing ever happened to the toys. There's still reviews online you can find where there's next to NO complaints about the fingers from a QC standpoint. Practically all of mine are still pristine and those that aren't are from paint jobs not reacting well to existence.

Toy Biz figures were highly praised and were considered a gold standard until around 2012 or 2013, when Hasbro upped their game and new fans who never touched a Toy Biz figure started buying MLs.

Nevermind there's been countless figures by other companies since that have been praised for articulated fingers.

>look nothing like the toys in hand again
Mass market children toys that look better than most modern collector toys and you thought they were hand painted prototypes that were photographed by hundred dollar an hour photographers.
PWNAGE.

Fucking Perlmutter must be a huge toy fan for him to spend that much money on toys to look this good, when he fucking bitches at journalists at movie junkets if they get more than one soda or when employees throw away papercilps.

Also, I'm sad that marvellegends.net is still down

Speaking as an oldfag who was here during the Toy Biz > Hasbro transition, prices were already going up and bitching was endless, especially with the budgets for the ML figures dropping like a rock.

The fact that MLs are praised today despite the budget still being cheap makes me believe that it's mostly newfags who don't remember how great MLs were and shit on these figures they can't afford because of how indemand most got.

Personally, I'm kinda meh on everything and mostly moved onto Mezco's offerings. I'd be bitter about Hasbro dropping 1:18 scale, but holy fuck did they really really really really want fans to hate on the 1:18 Marvel figures by being super cheap as fuck with the last few years they were still producing them.

But yep, I'm definitely seeing some signs of the same bitching we saw in 2008, 2009 and even 2010.
2020 is going to be entertaining as fuck and i hope I'm not struggling when the economy starts dropping like a rock, because i want to enjoy the ride.

is it summer already?
Fucking newfags need to go back where they came from, especially since you think a common style of posting that's been around since telegraphs comes from that place you came from.

Toys should have better paint jobs if they're going to cost $50 fucking bucks or more. Clean colored plastic is for Hasbro and Mattel tier toys.
I miss Toy Biz. Fucking top tier paint jobs almost always for the price of Hasbro figures.

>Marvel Comics wouldn't be in business today if it weren't for Marvel Studios. If anything, people should be asking -you- why you're here, if you read comics.
Marvel Comics was doing fine in the 00s.

If Marvel Studios didn't exist, we wouldn't suffering from Hasbro's mediocrity and instead praising every single high quality fully painted Toy Biz wave.

>hell Revoltech did it before Figuarts
I think he was saying McFarlane was doing it decades before, which is an exggeration, but they were using it at least as long as Revoltech, if not before.

>that's the 4" Deadpool
I know, and if it can look good on 4" figures, there's no reason it can't on larger scales.
Toy Biz only made it look as bad as it was because they were still experimenting with their joints.
By the end, they pretty much perfected it.
> they're atrociously annoying to work well
I never understood this. You just put it at an angle and then use the leg to bend it to your liking.
Only time it ever sucks is if the joint is stuck, but you know how to unstick them, right?

SAS is pretty much what Toy Biz would be producing if they raised the prices to $15 in 2005.

Still, Toy Biz was a god-bro-tier toy company and really gave collectors almost everything they wanted for little money. No company really comes close.

MLs would be over priced at $22, but they are $20 in my area, and that does seem ot be the standard pricing for the average 6" figure.

>which are far below quality of an import
spend about 10 bucks more on production and you'd definitely get a Figuarts quality figure from mass production or even collectors line figure.
So that's roughly $30.

The MK figure though? i don't see anything special about it. It could be a Mezco or DC Direct figure.

>a case of inflation
no.
Inflation is only really considered by the year to year price/cost. So all things being equal, such as these toys being made in China, the prices just have to do with how greedy the company is.
Inflation would be more like comparing Toy Biz's gloriuous collector quality figures made out of a billion pieces only costing about $10 vs the cheaply redecoed/retooled as fuck $20 MLs are at today. Of course, inflation only accounts for about $2 of that increase in price. The rest is rising costs of production in China, raw materials costing more, shipping costing more, and Hasbro needing to make investors happy (greed).

Toy Biz was one of the best toy companies to ever exist. Bro-tier as fuck, what with the crazy amount of articulation, detail, and paint apps they put into their figures for a very low price.
They were such a great toy company that they bought Marvel and created their own movie studio so they could retain creative control over their own properties.

Since the toy manufacturing branch was shut down, we still haven't seen any toy company match what we saw them do since 2007. Some companies are close though, like DCC and Mezco, but they fall short in certain areas, especially in bro-tier pricing.
