Sideshow Collectible, the T-Rex : is there a trap ?

Hello /toys/

Never order a "toy". I just want a big realist Trex with nice details in my room.

>see this
>389$
>2000ex

Is it a very good value for money ?

I want to pre-order it but are there downsides or something i should know ? Some star wars figures half the size of it are at the same price and it doesn't feel this good (for me).

I'm pretty " poor" so it's a pretty big step for me.

Is it worth it ?

Sideshow makes excellent quality statueshit. I have a few and I absolutely love them.

That should tell you two things:

1: If you have the cash and you really love the figure, go for it. You won't regret it.

2: This is statueshit. Take it someplace else.

Can you post some pics of yours ?

I'm a yuropoor so i cannot see the "statuesh€t" before buying. Is there any flaws i can expect ? Will the paint craft be as seen in the photos or one step down in the small details ? (As i understand it's cast and paint by chinese painters.).

I'm torn now....just googling the figurine, some have problems of plaint, missing theet, crackle on the sideshow forums they talk about it :

http://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/general-collectibles-statues-props-etc-/145206-sideshow-rex-tyrant-king-statue-60.html

I'm not a maniac but i dont want a big flaw for this kind of price, it has to be an happy purchased not being worried to have a big flaw.

Still want it but what i can do to avoid this kind of disagreements ?

Mine didn't suffer from too many issues. I had to touch up the paint on his toe claw near the base, cause the paint had flaked off. It does suck for something so expensive, but he really is a beast in person. Beautiful body. My biggest problem otherwise was the eyes not being lined up. But I guess that's how everyone's is.

Here. Hopefully they won't get taken down too fast.

I honestly think we should have a general dedicated to statues, but unfortunately I have been banned or had my pics removed when posting just the statues. Stupid policy (especially when Amiibos and POPs have threads) but them's the breaks.

>>5346016
Everything in life has little flaws; if you go looking hard enough for paint imperfections you'll find them. Broken pieces are a different matter, and quite serious. Fortunately Sideshow has a pretty good reputation for customer service. Again, if you really want that Trex I'd say go for it.

Lets be real here

If /sp/ could successfully lobby for oiled mangrapple to be kicked out, we can lobby for /toy/ rule #2 to be deleted

I mean who cares. Its one of the slowest boards and they ultimately are a "figure".

The problem is people would flood the board with anime waifu panty shot statues. I'd be fine with threads like this but be real, you know it would just turn into japan land

Honestly I'd just suggest the Rebor King T-rex. Its very nicely detailed and much less costly. You can even expand it into something approaching a diorama. There is a fallen Triceratops that is molded to let the king T-rex stand on it claiming the kill. They're even going to do a male Triceratops trying to defend his mate. Cool stuff.

The rule states: Absolutely no Japanese figurines. Action figures are permitted. Now you know as well as I do what the term
''Japanese figurine" entails, and what that rule applies to. Nothing posted here yet is a "Japanese figurine".

>>5346069
>If /sp/ could successfully lobby for oiled mangrapple to be kicked out, we can lobby for /toy/ rule #2 to be deleted
Gets started then.
Stop bitching about the rule and actually email people who can do something about it. Get support, and have others do the same. Hell, I'd sign a petition to get it done because I disagree with it as well. But you know; who am I kidding? This is /toy. You faggots can't work together too save your dicks, much less something as simple as this.

>I mean who cares. Its one of the slowest boards
Irrelevant.

>and they ultimately are a "figure".
Wrong.
It's figurine. Which is different that action figure. And figurines aren't toys, so...

>>5346086
Nah. That's just trying to spread fear and doom & gloom.

>>5346044
>plz no bully,
I'd ban you for a week just for being such a twat who would type that out.

Who is that? I wouldn't mind getting rule two removed but I have not the faintest idea how to go about it.

Are you too stupid or too lazy to actually look around on a site that you post/lurk on and find the answer to your question yourself?
Fuck you, I'm not going to spoonfeed you.

Hey. You're the one who can't even scroll to the bottom of the page and get the information you seek.
Don't take out your frustration over the fact it's too difficult for your skill set on me.
Lazy, stupid faggot.

Thanks i really like this one, the paint seems amazing and the sense of "motion" of the cape is great.
