>>5851456>I-It's cheaper so it MUST be better! I'm not a poorfag, honest!>As for plastic stands being transparent, you realize 99% of them aren't invisible, but glossy shiny plastic that stands out in majority of cases? It's also thicker, so you have thick plastic shining light making them stand out more than wire ever will.Well of course it's not fucking invisible you literal retard. Neither is wire. You also don't get transparent wire- plus, painted wire often flakes when you bend it.
>Sorry, but it's a fact of life when dealing with diecast. From Hot Toys to Hot Wheels, paint is much thicker by default, because more applications must be made for the paint to stick. [Citation needed]
On top of that, most parts being made of diecast in most toys are either unobtrusive internal parts or simple, not particularly heavily detailed parts anyway. Plus, a well painted finish will 9 times out of 10 look better than bare plastic.
>Hasbro doesn't even use diecast, AFAIK.Nope, that's because they're too fucking stupid to know how to use it properly. Last time they tried they royally fucked it up. Hasbro shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath as proper collector's figure companies.
Of course, even though they don't use diecast, they still use ridiculously thick coats of paint, totally ruining that sculpt you love to harp on about so much.
>Steel molds must be used for plastic as well.Yes, but you're missing the point. They will need to be replaced/restored far more often because molten metal is a lot, LOT hotter/more destructive than liquid plastic. It's more dense, heavier, and has a higher melting temperature.
>YOU'RE IGNORANT! IGNORANT IGNORANT IGNORANT!Learn some new buzzwords you total spazzer.
Oh why am I bothering to argue with you, you're a poorfag who blew all his money trying to become a pretty princess.
