>toy gets multiple glowing reviews on this site
>buy toy
>it's a shitshow of bad design
>every reviewer got a copy free from either the company or some online retailer they hype up

It's professional video game reviews all over again. Channels are required to state if they have paid sponsorship but most don't bother & Youtube doesn't care. This is paid sponsorship.

Or it could just be cope.
I have a lot of figures that in my heart of hearts know aren't great, but refuse to admit it and force them into my display because I've wanted them for so long or paid a lot for them

It's a form of autism I know.

I think it's more common to find reviewers that point out a bunch of flaws but in the end they still rate it high

You retards let YouTube live in your heads rent free. Just stop using it if you don't like it. Holy shit. Is this a zoomer thing or an autism thing, getting unreasonably butt blasted about shit you can easily ignore?

Outside of UltraShilla, who would never do anything to damage his relationship with Hiya Toys and Super7, I've never really had that problem collecting Kaiju and Toku figures, but now that I've started collecting Jurassic Park and Beasts of the Mesozoic figures I've started to see this sort of stuff a lot more. The stellar reviews for the $200 1/18 scale BOTM Tyrannosaurus Rex were especially bad considering just how bad that figure is at being an action figure and the recent shill overload from people like Collect Jurassic demanding everyone support the shitty Jurassic Park Gates crowdfund has been really surprising.

No, most of them are openly advertising for online stores in each video & generally admit those stores gave them free toys. BBTS is common... here's a tip, if they have something discounted 5-10 years after it came out & still can't unload it, it's not good, no mater how many of their paid sponsorship channels tell you it is.

Pixel Dan got MOTUC for free & would only admit a problem if he knew glossing over it would get him a shitstorm.

Bert the Stormtrooper loves everything for some reason. I gave up watching him because he refuses to be objective.

The smaller channels might be more honest but get so few subs & traffic they may as well not exist. Death Reviews was a decent channel as he bought his own toys but his name alone probably got him demonetized & deboosted in search results now that Youtubers have to use shit like "unalive" in titles & spoken text(because YT now scans audio for no-no words). I don't think he's even around now. It's basically impossible for a new startup to get the big sub numbers now, because the big channels are reviewing the same shit you own.

If you dislike something, why would you keep coming back for more of your own free will? I'm not saying the channels you disagree with should just go away, but that you should stop watching, and thus whining like a baby about them.

Here is what you should have did
buy it becasue you actually wanted it
not becasue some talking head on youtube
told you to and said it was great.
you have to learn to form your own opinion
that goes with anything really
books/TV/movies/video games
watch it or read it becasue you are genuinely interested in it not because some corporate shill
told you to and the same goes for toys and collectables buy it because you have a genuinely interested in it not becasue some asshat on youtube said it was the greatest thing

"I really like the sculpt."
"Great paint apps"
"Decent possibility"

Am I doing it right?

If your shitty toy is sitting on clearance almost a decade later then all those Youtubers who say its amazing are paid advertisements.

Bert the Stormtrooper can take his "I love every toy I own" attitude & sodomize himself with it, too. He won't even accept most flaws exist.

Anthony is my go to reviewer, but I feel like he even cucked out now.

DBZ Figuarts are my main thing and he is one of the few guys that will accurately point out aspects of figures that come out that do suck. Everyone else basically just slobbers over every release. But now with the upcoming EEs, he got review copies for free and was slobbering all over them with very little critique. I was watching his Majin Vegeta review and the guys arm fell off while he was testing the articulation and he pretty much overlooked it. Very little critique of the Raditzs figure which has the same issues as the original with loose knees and overly tight arms that risk breaking them if fuck with the cross arms pose. I was disapointed.

This is actually good advice but a ton of people in the hobby have extreme FOMO after years of seeing other people buying something just so they can say they have it on social media or worse, because they're afraid of missing out on a scalping opportunity.

In general these faggots prefer brittle Jap toys over robust Western one. If a $120 inport figure break, who cares? But if a $25 domestic toy doesn't come with enough useless acessories the video is 20min of kvetching. The whole toy cummunity are retards.
