Action figures are better than toys. You can pose them and leave them and they look the same as statues, but then if you get bored you can switch them up without having to buy another one.

This is a bait shitpost thread, don't reply to it.
Honestly statues are better display items than toys simply 'cause they're usually larger and more detailed, and they're designed to look the nicest on a shelf. Toys are meant to be played with. It's two different things. I don't understand people who buy action figures to display them and switch the pose every now and then (box collectors are subhuman)

They're usually considered lower quality, though there can be exceptions. I know banpresto seems to make some decent prize figures based on what I've seen, but I don't actually own any so that's just my impression.

I honestly agree that statues are toys. Pokemon miniatures are also toys afterall and those have 0 articulation too. I don't know where this faggotry about statues not beong toys comes from. Is a warhammer mini not a toy?

However it doesn't matter what is on topic and what is not because the whole catalog is curated by a handful of autists and spammers anyway. They decide what's on the catalog in their respective Discord servers by polling the trannies there

They'd get bored at the slow pace and fuck off back to their own board. Statues can never belong here because statue fags don't enjoy toys when it's not their main interest for coming to the website.

When you own thousands of figures what else are you supposed to do? Keep them all stored in a toy box until you have time to "play" with them. I like having everything out otherwise I'd forget I even had half the stuff.

>memes
>iconic poses that never match the iconic poses 100% (while statues do)
>if female figures, porn, which is always the same tired shit taste garbage to boot or the same handful gravure poses if the owner has any taste
Action figures are a waste. Most people aren't creative and have no taste

I mean you kinda gave the reason in your post. You can switch the pose every now and again. You can really change up a display just by the way you've posed your figures. With statues you'll always see the same angle of the figure within the same pose.

That's like saying that a car is a complete thing to own even if the engine isn't working because you can sit in it and go VROOM VROOM. Articulated figures for display purposes are dumb. Statues are designed to be interesting from all angles, so I could say you could slightly rotate the statue on the shelf and you get a whole new experience every time.
Action figures are for play, toy photography, etc. Otherwise you're just half-assing it and you're probably better off with statues.
Still, not nearly as braindead as in-box collecting.

Although people do collect cars for show, not for driving anon, so your analogy is pretty mute.

I honestly don't see why articulated figure can't be used for display. They also look good from multiple angles and can do poses that don't exist in statue form.

I slowly got put of statues due to becoming a scalefag. I like a display for a particular IP to be all one scale and style, whether 1/18 or 1/6. Statues tend to be all over the place, even from Bandai, Kotobukiya, Alter, Kaiyodo nothing is ever consistent and so characters displayed together look off/stand alone unless they are intentionally made as a set.

I have a few loose screws but I think the joints on BJDs are sexy as hell, especially the hands. Same with robots, if they have visible wiring and exposed mechanical joints I find them hotter.
