>>9895218 It's cool they completed the legendary bird trio so soon. Shame the small Lugia and any inevitable Ho-oh won't scale well with them.
Can't see how the Gen 2 legendary dogs will be in scale with everything else if they're in these same Select boxes. They'll be undersized

>>9895954 Nah, I'm glad it's not clear plastic. Why would you want Moltres to have clear plastic when all the other fire type mons don't? It would cost them a hell of a lot more to tool anyway, and god knows we don't need to give them another reason to reduce the number of new figures per wave. Moltres may already be the only Wave 3 figure.
>>9895924 I'm sure Suicune and the rest will be articulated well enough, just much smaller than they should be. I'm worried about them. They are more lengthy than any other figure in that line so far (except Ray but it can coil up) and a cube shaped box is really the worst possible shape to get them to fit into. I'm afraid they'll be only slightly larger than Arcanine

>>9896129 Its very noticeable and i don't think its put of the range of a reasonable expectation. The reason its probably not there, is because its implied, but not on model.
Still i really don't understand why putting out a deluxe, with clear flames would be a bad thing.
Its not like charizard, where its on the back and small

And the wider demographics for Scale World and Select are two totally different ones that only overlap with some hardcore adult collectors.
What we are getting is by far the best Moltres toy ever. Want clear wings one it? Buy it, take it apart, recast it in clear parts and make it yourself.

So some Target toy manager who doesn't know what they're doing can easily order multiple cases and have it all be the same figure. It's stupid. All my stores have walls of either Greninja, Articuno, or Rayquaza but never a mix of more than one of those. This is why I always prefer toy companies ship in mixed assortments. They easily could and should have done 2xCharizard, 1xArticuno, 1xGreninja before Ray came out, and then replaced the duplicate Charizard with Rayquaza in later shipments.

>>9900785 I don't have Zapdos yet but I saw someone else in the last thread say their Zapdos wing was floppy too. Hope this isn't a widespread problem because I don't see an easy fix due to how the wing joint is done. Maybe some Pledge floor polish on the underside of the joint that's mostly hidden? That is used to 'strengthen' loose joints sometimes.

Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>9901025 Possibly. But those stamps don't really mean much. Bootlegs could still be made using the original molds. You can just tell by the incorrect paint style compared to the real figures usually. Several of those figures are 100% bootlegs tho, and if some are, more than likely all/most are too. I mean, your Shuckle has an extra leg, Teddiursa is obviously not the correct sculpt, same with Medicham, Marowak, Heracross etc. Many of those have wildly inaccurate sculpts, and some look like they could be real Tomy figure molds, but just bootlegged since the paint is incorrect.

Just got the Deino and Vulpix multipack and my Vulpix had a giant brown blotch on it’s right ear. I did manage to get some of it off and it’s only on the back of the ear so it isn’t too noticeable but I’m genuinely baffled as to who looked at that and said “yeah sure that looks passable”. Deino was pretty much perfect and Vulpix is still going in my collection to replace the advent calendar one but I’m still pissed

Ash who's in the open had it a bit less, but still a noticeable layer. Never keep toys sealed in plastic bags, plastic bins/tubs or other containers for too long, I don't even seal bags anymore, the lack of air circulation really can damage the plastic on your toys over time. Heat and humidity can be a big problem too. Rule of thumb is keep things cool, dry, open and out of harsh light and you shouldn't have problems.

>>9913732 Was Scyther listed as a 3" or a Battle Figure? I really hope Pinsir gets in here too. Love those great (at the time) non-evolving 500 base stats Pokemon.

>>9911735 The Hoenn legends look great and Steven's figure is easily the nicest looking. Feels good being a gen 3 chad.
Anonymous
>>9913804 Scyther was listed as an upcoming 4.5" with Luxray, Electivire, Magmortar, and maybe another one I'm forgetting. All will be too small for 1/12 scale if thats your thing though
Anonymous
>>9913814 Don't care too much about the scale as long as it isn't absurd, like say a 3" Pokemon that's supposed to be 8'. Having an articulated Magmar and Electabuzz, even with limited articulation, is fun. I'm looking forward to them.
Anonymous
>>9913837 Yeah, but the fully have the capability of making things in scale. Electabuzz and Magmar could have been in the 4" line. Duskull should have been a 3" figure, Geodude should be smaller. They just don't even try :(
Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>9913868 They could have, but I personally prefer the 3" figures to the 4" ones. Sure the size is upped a bit, but having the articulation makes them a lot more fun I think. Also it creates the size discrepancy between them and their evolutions (in the case of Elec and Mag), because it isn't like we're going to get Selects of Magmortar or Electivire.

was excited for 25th anniversary zapdos, i don't buy many pokemon toys but wanted a giant figure of the GOAT for a while. unfortunately he's mostly a rubber slab with well-articulated fingers, no detailed paint except eyes that will inevitably rub off and a stand that's admittedly cool
Anonymous
>>9919780 What did you expect? The entire body is done in the correct colors so what other paint would you want? And what else would you want articulated?
Anonymous
>>9919808 being able to move its wings in front of it would've been nice, and the colors themselves are fine but the giant swaths of bare yellow plastic look cheap, cartoony (in a bad way), and my copy had a bunch of a mold release agent/grease and scratches on the wings that caught the light. a matte paintjob over the bare plastic like masterpiece transformers get would've been nice
Anonymous
>>9921283 bruh. No toy company making $20 figures is going to paint over the same colored plastic to get a matte finish. Yes, maybe in a $100+ import/speciality line like Masterpiece as you mentioned, but not in a mass retail line. Zapdos only moves its wings up and down from the torso just like the articulation allows. It has never really rotated and moved them forward (like Articuno's or Moltres' wings for instance). Not trying to knock all your points but I'm genuinely confused what you expected. You say it looks too cartoony but they are literally making figures based off their cartoon appearances.
Anonymous
>>9921345 for most of the pokemon i get not being able to slather the thing in paint but again, zapdos is kind of just two big flat pieces with a small body. he looks cheap the way he is imo. and paint's not a $75 difference like you're implying
Anonymous

Quoted By:
>>9921365 I didn't say painting all the yellow plastic with yellow paint would cost $75 to do, I meant that you are expecting waaaaaayyyyyy too much from a $20 mass retail figure. I'm honestly surprised what we got as it is. How many other $20 toy lines have unique sculpts, super articulated figures, and a display stand? Not many at all. For $20 you are always going to have unpainted plastic.

Odd how Jazwares hasn't done a Metagross or Gardevoir yet they seem to be hitting all the generically popular mons. Ralts should've gotten a small figure by now at least.
Anonymous
>>9923535 I figured Metagross was at least on their radar since WCT did Metang which still seems like such a strange choice. I'm sure Metagross would have been an Epic figure. Seems less likely now that we'll get one from Jaz since they only do one Epic per year when WCT did three one year and two another year.
Ralts got a Bandai Full Color Advance series figure or whatever those little ones were called. It's hard to find but it's pretty much 1/12 scale.
Anonymous
>>9923770 Wasn't Metang done because he was featured in the anime at the time? That was in the Dedenne era I think; feels like so long ago. Either way I love that they did, because I love the Metagross line. Metagross could probably also fit into Select.

>>9928748 >>9928872 Nice haul! Especially Figma Red. Greninja is a horrible figure and way too tall so be warned if you're an opener. Those 6" Selects ship in solid cases so that's why some store will have like 10 of one figure and no others. It makes hunting more frustrating.
There have been a couple recent 3packs with Boltund. Boltund/Squirtle/Machop is from last year, and the Boltund/Mudkip/Pikachu one is brand now. All the Hoenn starters haven't really been found or posted online yet so I'd like to see how they compare to past Hoenn starter figures.
