I'm starting to wet my feet into figures and /toy/
I'm more interested in dropping tons of money on large, very detailed things like this and other things at First 4 Figures.

However it doesn't seem like they have a ton of selection and half the stuff is sold out/wait list.
Any other places with stuff like this?

First 4 Figures is mostly overpriced statueshit.

If you want large/poseable figures that are expensive and highly detailed you'll want Hot Toys.

Thanks. I don't care much about poseable. I guess I'm into "statueshit." Hot Toys seems focused on Marvel/Star Wars/Disney properties.

I want more video game/anime stuff if you or anyone has other recommendations. I am googling but not finding much

Careful. /toy/ is triggered by "statueshit" because a vocal minority still believe it should be against the rules.

You can talk about them all you want thanks to the lax moderation, but don't be surprised when people call you out for it, especially if you're trying to argue there's no problem talking about them. You're being just as autistic with you're desperate defences.

no, it says "Toys, toys, toys" like said before some statues are toys, so if what they want is no statues, add a rule that says that.

Hell, even if I'm being anal, wouldn't being specific be better? for "dumb" people like me? it would certainly kill a lot of the discussion.

But, regardless of that tho, even if the rule means no statues, that's dumb, they should be allowed, I don't even understand why they aren't, is like people that enforce it just saw the rule and decided to die for it for no reason, like they get some sense of pride on defending their board of child-playthings by not allowing other types of plastic figures.

The problem with /toy/ and collectors in general is that a large portion of them do not pose their figures, thus essentially making them statues.
This, coupled with the fact that statues are basically articulation limited figures--which could technically include many old McFarlane ect--creates an asinine problem that will probably never be resolved.

Honestly, how many points of articulation do you need before it stops been a figure and just a statue with maybe a singular point of articulation or two like with the Funko shit?

I feel Funko is tolerated when it barely fits. I doubt some people on this board will be as quiet if a Japanese line of anime statues with just the ability to turn the head came out.
