>>5857299>Companies A - Z all produce diecast toys in the manner where the paint is applied thicker than on plastic>Only true collector toy companies from Japan know how to make diecast toys>this is not a no-true-scotsman fallacy.... you're fucking dumb.
Nevermind you sound weeaboo as fuck saying that, because it's bullshit. I own many toys from Japan (Kaiyodo, ArtFx, Figuarts, Good Smile, Tomica etc) and other expensive as shit stuff like Hot Toys that have used diecast in the same manner.
There's no escaping the negative features, as literally everything I've seen has the same qualities.
It's almost like it's an industry standard and physics can't be changed.....
BTW, earlier you brought up how you've painted models made out of metal. You realize that it's not even the same shit, considering the paints used in chinese factories are completely different from the ones used by hobbyists? Their shit will stick on like crazy, but even then, it will still chip off.
Of course, if you really do paint, you'd know that priming plastic figures isn't necessary, especially with newer plastic models? Even a sealing coat isn't needed. So you'll need fewer coats on plastic models and it will handle the same (if not better) than a primed and sealed pewter/whitemetal model.
in fact, stuff like this, where the plastic is rubbery as shit? You can bend it way the fuck anywhere and the paint will not crack.
Pretty damn impressive, but i guess that's just the way it is. Most paints for plastic models (and toys) are rubbery and will follow along with the plastic, whereas diecast/metal toys have a harder seal and finish, so it's just laying over the surface and crack off, instead of having any give.
