Hello from Toy Anxiety!!

[toylion]

I collect 1/6 because of the original 12" G.I. Joe and Captain Actions I had as a boy. No interest in 1/4 scale. Looks nice but not for me. As others have stated, cost and space.

C -

Space- expensive hobby - not really interested in starting another line.

E

Too expensive, lack of space and I don't want to start yet another scale.

Thanks!

C. Too expensive. 2x 1/6 = 1/4. Fail.

Hey TA,

Do you folks only offer Priority or Express shipping now? I was trying to order some stuff and the only options are those two. I was hoping to use a cheaper method as in the past.

 

[Buttmunch]

If what you're ordering weighs over the 13 oz First Class limit, then only those will pop up.

That's what it is then. I'm trying to pick up some bodies.

 

[Buttmunch]

Yep, that it. Sometimes 1 body is light enough, but 2+ is always going to push it over the limit. But remember, TA is always good at refunding overcharges on shipping

Guess I would go with E. Not much reason to part out figures you can't customize with relatively cheap bodies. I don't want them all, but I want some. Price isn't so much of an issue from my POV, and I certainly don't think they are unnecessary. No more unnecessary than any other collectible type.

I'd say C & D. For what they cost, are there going to be people looking to bash figures of them? And would you guys even come close to turning a profit, let alone break even with what you'd have to charge to justify it? Then there's the whole matter of why. Are HT and EB going to produce nude base bodies to utilize the extra pieces and accessories for custom figures? What about the outfits? Will they be making spare uniform sets and accessories like shoes, belts, etc? I don't really see that happening, let alone being profitable. Especially at those prices. That would basically mean the parts would be replacement pieces should someone lose an accessory. And at that point, is it really necessary given most of the figure will likely just sit parted out waiting for the odd chance someone might lose a piece or two?
