I couldn't help but shake my head and laugh when I saw the post you replied to.

Yeah. I'll gladly go with ease AND low pricing of the Chinese sellers.

 

Just canceled by Stomp preorder on TFS-EXPRESS, fyi

 

I honestly dont know what's gotten into me. I blame the government. Thanks Jimmy Carter 

 

I'm kind of like you. The times I go to TFSource or BBTS first is when I am concerned about QC. MP Stars cream I am glad I ordered through TFSource. Receiving it soon. If there is an issue I know they.will resolve it quickly

 

Yep, the weird trivial arguments that people tear each other up over. Robotech was pretty cool. It was my first exposure to serious story-telling and it opened up anime to a generation of kids.

You and me both. The measure of what constitutes a man has diminished greatly.

 

Surely not. Real men pay 50 to 100 bucks above retail. Pretty straightforward.

 

Well f*ck. Totally thought it was how many news credits i could get...

 

All my REAL mans out there in the comments, lemme see those hands if you dropping dollas on those pre-orders!

 

Pfft. Spend my money on toys? Im an adult thank you. I put it all on ccs that ill never pay off. What are they gonna do, repossess my toys? Shyeah ok. My money goes on important stuff. Comics, in app purchases, fast food, and some of that herb. Yall need to get your head in the game 

 

This. Was perfectly happy to pay upfront for Stomp at Ages3andUp. Now I sit back and relax

Oh shit I can't pay rent

 

Funny how the arms of each one bends.

 

I know they are not as popular, but I loved the toys as a kid. I hope that one day FT makes a Barrage, Ransack, and Chop Shop.

 

Those were some of my favorites as a kid too! Would love to see them masterpiece style. Fansproject made some that were alright. Wasn't there a 4th one...Venom?

 

Yep, there were 4. Venom, Barrage, Ransack and Chop Shop.

And seconded, i'd ADORE to have MPs of them.

 

I wonder, which of them looks most like the one that needs to be taken seriously?   Just so great figures.

 

Yup. But didn’t have Venom. My brother’s figure. F*** that guy.

 

BBTS has always taken fantastic care of me and I've got up to 100 items on preorder with them at any given moment for the next few years (and a few dozen with Sideshow besides). I have no problem with them taking care of themselves, since they take such good care of me. Honestly I don't care if I'm paying a higher price for the service. Knowing they've got my back with how deep I'm into collecting its more important than saving a few hundred bucks a year by going with China sellers. I've ordered things from China a few times but it has always absolutely my last resort, never my first! As out of control as prices are getting on China to US shipments anyway, I'd rather lean into BBTS's buying power on freight - but for single irregular small orders, it might make some sense if price is your biggest concern.

 

Holy hell, I thought FT was bad...

SH Figuarts has 4 Event Exclusives up from 6-9 tonight, and the site has been broken since 6...

My brother, father, friend, and myself are all trying it.

Maybe we've had it too good with FT

 

Last year I think was still worse. Not only did the site crash, but the last wave was in limbo for MONTHS because of a storm hitting the ship the exclusives were on losing a lot of it's cargo. Had to go back for months of investigation and thankfully, the exclusives were 100% fine.

Even just THIS is still worse than anything FT, if you ask me.

@Honesty Score one point for the PS5 > FT, or should I say, PS5 > SHF exclusives > FT gang, haha.

 

Kids were stupid. These 4 deluxe insecticons should have been more popular than original insecticons. Hasbro/Takara screwed up the toy timing. Plus they didn't give the deluxe insecticons a proper backstory. At least IDW tried to set the story straight by making Venom the leader in the comics.
