Nice to see Dirk Nowitzki finally got a collectors grade action figure all to himself!

If that thing is at G-Fest I'm getting it. I don't have any gargantua figures.

This is coming out

This Godzilla Vinyl Wars line also has two releases on Entertainment Earth:

Sounds like Medicom's teaming up with various vinyl companies to do limited-to-200 redecos of various Godzillas from each of them.

I think I prefer the 62 to those two.

........... Those figures look like ass. Yes, I know they're limited and hand-crafted. But they still look like ass.

Quite the populist chest thumper iconoclast we got here

I have some real issues with the prices. I couldn't imagine any of those selling for much more than 3000 yen so it seems like they priced these new releases at imported OOP prices.

Well, the only reason Ghidorah is $300 is because of the second market prices. He was originally priced at $120. Value accumulates. And vintage style figures are limited run stuff. They're not to your tastes as you've said, but there is a reason why I can see someone paying the high price for it.

Also you're making big assumptions here with how people spend their money. You assume that people like me or pretty much everyone else here on the Toys and Figures board, who would not mind spending money on an expensive figure, does not also contribute to organizations that try to help people. Maybe someone doesn't. Maybe someone does (like me. Heh I constantly donate to Feeding America AND the ASPCA cause I like animals more than people sometimes ). That's their call. But what individuals (and no I don't consider corporations to be people) do with their own money is pretty much their own business (outside killing hookers and buying children >_>)

And because of this, I don't understand you freaking out on people who shell out for stuff. Well, I guess making yourself feel better about can count.

While everyone has a right to their opinion, an opinion is going to be met with another opinion. It works both ways.

[walshiam]

With prices are the way they are (which makes it impossible for some), I've seriously considered making my own figures. Some of the prices for Godzilla items are nothing short of shameful. There is no shame from the seller as long as there are knot heads willing to pay crazy prices.

So the charity comment was more of a joke? So your populist chest thumping is more of a cynical display of disgust towards people who buy stuff you don't like, rather than actually caring about people in situations like that? Eh, fair enough.

.o. as for killing hookers and buying children, the bigger issue ain't money yo. That's for sure.

New release: CCP put out pictures for their 2.0 release of Ultraman's Gaborah. It is a very impressive upgrade to an already very good release. These guys definitely are giving X-Plus a run for their money

lol @ legion...

Oh boy. I'm more bothered by the pseudopopulist bantering, since he admits in taking such issues lightly, than I am the insulting of toylines. That just happens. Putting one's self on some kind of a moral high horse is pretty obnoxious, but you're one to talk considering all the things you said about people who buy monsterarts

At least he ain't sh*tposting in the Monsterarts or Gigabrain threads anymore.

Great find on that Gaborah there Klen7. Just a weird question, is that costume based off a Gamera suit? Because that head is a dead ringer for Gamera.

It's cause you can have an opinion here at MZ and not get banned for it right away unlike some North Korea styled Godzilla boards I know >_>. As long as there's not sh*tposting I think its fine.

Also, the Toy board is the least regulated section on the site (though it should be, this place is "OH GODZILLA! WHAT TERRIBLE LANGUAGE!" Mad Max/Fist Of The North Star). Bashing toylines, whatever man. People need to grow up. That "OH GODZILLA! WHAT TERRIBLE LANGUAGE!" happens.

But it does get personal when you go after people who spend their money any way see fit like you are prone to do. You called people who collect overpriced figures dopes before and hijacked threads to do so. Of course its going to rile people up, because that's your intent.
