Why does ThreeZero keep releasing figures from dead franchises? Now, that Caiman release was cool. Seriously though what's up with the decaying franchises? Nobody should care about Game of Thrones, Crysis, Breaking Bad, Titanfall, or whatever other stupid irrelevant forgotten series they're pumping out on an assembly line!

Caimen is gay as fuck. But anyway, I think they, along with 3A, get a license and then don't do shit with it for years. It took them 3 years to come out with a Halo 4 Chief, it took them 4 years to come out with a Transformers figure that's already not the newest movie, and 3Z is in the same boat.

They're the epitome of a company that's such a mess and riddled with people who are awful at time management.

Maybe their thought (and business practice) is that properties that were huge but are no longer "hot items" might find a careful balance where the costs to license aren't as high but the fanbase is still large enough to support the production costs for the line itself and in turn pull a greater profit than some costlier brand new and relevant license.

It's a good point but why putting Breaking Bad and GoT in that list instead of Dragon Age or fucking Chappie?

Seems like they're a company that does what they like. Good for them. The crysis nanosuit is a cool design, so I'm looking forward to this release.

So how many years am I gonna wait for this one. We still don't have a release date for the Fallout power armor figures. Does ThreeZero usually take forever to release anything?

Because they are so fucking slow that the franchises die by the time they get the figures shipped.

You know how sometimes you look at an older game/movie/comic and think 'Awe, too bad they never made a figure for that guy."

Yeah umm I love how all the "fans" of this CG art book are crawling out of the woodwork. I totally love how they act like this art book is so classic and hip and cool. It's artificial hyped I never heard of Dan Luvsi or whoever the fuck. It's a scam! ARITICIALLY GENERATE HYPED!

>>5307998
No, I don't buy flavor of the month. I'm only interested in a franchise if it is eternal.

Let me get this straight: you think an original IP with tons of fans off the back of a single artbook and Luvisi's art posted to social media - that is, right this minute, being turned into a huge Hollywood action film - is somehow less worthy than shit like a robot suit from the third and worst Matrix film from thirteen years ago, or the Robocop remake no-one wanted or cared about?

All you fucking LMS fans sound like such fucking shills.

>what, how can you not like the hit artbook LMS Killbook™ by acclaimed artist Dan Luvisi, soon to be a major motion picture by 20th century Paramount brothers™!? Soon to be a sci-fi franchise that will eclipse The Matrix™ by the wachowski Siblings™ or Gaurdians of the galaxy™!

Range Murata is talented. Dan Luvisi just uses texture brushes for basic shit like stubble. he's impressive to knuckle draggers who like hyper realism in art.

I have no idea man. I always feel the same way when Sideshow or someone does a $300 bust or statue or replica weapon from some shit-tier Van Hellsing ripoff that is destined for the DVD bargain bin.

I never herd of ashley wood before 3a, I only found out last year that we was the man responsible for the horrible MGS comics

and did you possibly think that the reason why we never talked about him was because there was no reason to talk him on a TOY board.
to avoid you getting annoyed in the future when we start talking about apparently non existing things in the toy universe should I just tell you every game/movie/show/cartoon i am a fan of?
do you want me to make a tumblr and show you every thing I follow so when they get a toy I can be all like "I know who that is and I would like that"

Dan Luvisi strikes me as kind of an idiot savant type. He can paint pretty competently and all, but he types like an elementary schooler. Also he strikes me as very awkward, one time years ago he tried advertising his book on /co/ trying to post as if he wasn't himself, while making it obvious it was him(including claiming weird shit like "I'm not him but he's a really cool guy, we've had a sexting session a few times before!")

You seriously think some generic looking artbook that looks like the box of a graphics card is more relevant and popular than existing theatrical movies? You fanboys drink that koolaid hard. That robocop remake is arguably irrelevant and forgotten, but it's on netflix so at the very least some people are using it for Netflix and Chill, so that's probably a bigger audience than fucking a facebook fanpage.

Fan interaction, mainly. He knows how to use social media to his advantage. a lot of his fans are awkward nerdy teens-mid 20's types who feel a rush when a "celebrity" talks to them on social media. He also does livestreams and post his techniques and stuff to get people invested. Its enough to make very crazed and fervent fans, which makes for good advertising. His time seems to be ffading, though, as very little is coming out of LMS after years of him hyping it, and the movie almost certainly being doomed to preproduction hell.

I hated Crysis 2, but I'm eternally grateful that the Crysis 1 nanosuit got included. The paint apps weren't impressive, but it was a very beautifully realized figure overall, its sculpt looks just as it should and also looks natural in almost any pose (probably because it is basically a naked muscular man painted gray).
