I mean not specifying any thread or anyone. But am wondering if it is a common practice to act as a genuine buyer to promote certain products here? Coz usually the items arent cheap compared to stuffs in the market but they buy em like grocery shopping and always encourage others to purchase...

Updated the old medicom figure. The body pretty much broken into pieces. Pleather jacket flaked. Surprisingly the Guitar straps still intact. White fabrics have turned yellowish. Guitar stand broken. Body is 28cm MAF white body which i shortened the arms and legs so figure is approx 30cm...

In terms of resources and mentally. or next pandemic will not exist.

Think it's been half a decade since i maintained my stuffs. Think it's that time again as things starts breaking apart. Obviously it's the pleather and rubber stuffs mainly and some brittle plastic. Hardest part is getting those parts out of the toy boxes stashed away in random shipping boxes...

I think Disney figured out Mando armors can be the next ironman in terms of merchandise. It would not be surprising that sooner or later we will have a 100 Mando team fighting some war and the variation and colors would be more than ironman since ironman story is based on Tony he can only and...

Noticed that old type 1/6 bodies getting harder to find. Recent companies focusing on necked body, partially seamless and full seamless. Only few companies still making the old type neckless body and choices are really limited in terms of skin tone. While there are companies that make new...

Anyone have this memory issue. Most of the medias i watched esp anime and tv series, after few years my memory of them would be pretty muddy, like apart from the big picture i could forget every detail other than the main characters (whom the names i never pay attention to) that jeeps getting...

i do check the forum on daily basis but when i am revisiting old threads for ideas on some of my old figures i noticed many members i recognized have their status banned. i mean from my memory they were pretty active and i formative in the respective threads but never noticed much malicious...

Not much info about this but i have seen it discussed sparsely here so i went ahead to try it out. Subject is a pair of old pleather ww2 german boots by Dragon. The pleather layer has been fully removed, washed and dried leaving only a thin grey fabric. loosen edges has been stiffen with...

Seeing his value is dirt am considering giving him an upgrade since hot toys never made this version of him. i tried google but it seems not many folks attempted to mod him. maybe a head and body swap? not sure which sculpt (sideshow/hot toys) and cheap body would work.

i been looking at recent 1/6 bodies and noticed some body features are no longer in the market. For example in the old days white and pinkish bodies are pretty common on medicom, dragon, did figures esp on cartoon characters. Hot Toys only released 1 white body which was 01-Male (there were few...

The newer stands come with the mandatory name plate without it leaves a hole on the stand. i dont know decal printing so i ended up buying these 3mm alphabet stickers. end up they are the same type of metal sticker i bought for miniature cars. You have to cut out the ones to use and peel off...

i mean collecting generic stuffs cool, but so far non of them feels anything close to perfect. i guess companies like inart starting to make it a reality but options are limited. if you could restart, would you just focus on a handful of figures that you can perfect, like hire custom artist and...

Looking for upgrade body for the Dragon 1/6 Initial D set figures for necked sculpts. Previously i tried the generic ones the tone is totally off. these are cartoon characters and the tone is much lighter than realistic sculpts. Are there body tone close to these figures? many thanks.

My Blitzway Scarface white suit has developed yellow stains and has gotten worse over the years. Not in direct sunlight. I wonder is this common for white fabrics and is there anyway to prevent this? I read oxy or hydrogen peroxide or bleach can work but still i think the result would be...

Been moving stuffs mainly boxes from old home. I cleaned half of them when i still had time there before moving. Most of them have brown spots developed on the paper boxes and manuals, those on boxes are usually permanent like foxing which is part of mold. Styrofoams have minor spots which could...

maybe a resin statue but it is 1/6 so i find the tutorial useful but overkill i guess since most of us dont have the finesse and precision on stuffs like eyelash, eye paintings down to the 1 stroke vein paintings. maybe 1 day bots will be able to do preprogrammed precision paintings.

apart from blower and duster os there anyway to clean really rough textures? using wetwipes or paper towel they just get caught by the texture making wiping impossible. i guess toothbrush and water works but are there other non wet solutions?

usually on i stored them out of sight out of mind but recently i had to pack and noticed most of the inner part of the boxes have deteriorated. the plastic trays are still ok. i guess the humid did some numbers on them. worst case is some of my blister packed toys have developed minor brown dots...
