Saw the Kato thread for the Don Draper suit and thought that'd be cool for a Connery Bond, i then saw the price :cuckoo:

Guy is havin' a laugh with that price :slap

Then when the situation didn't look like it could get even sillier i saw the long list of guys prepared to pay it :lol

I would buy a Myers Custom if I could,
same with Dexter, I need a Dexter figure, really do,

I'd call that a custom of a figure that are not worth getting a figure over, a character that no one really cares about :lol

HUH? No one cares about Dexter? Is that a serious response? I'd say Dexter's fanbase is probably larger than any other TV franchise that has come across this board in the customs section. Well, Dexter and Breaking Bad. Maybe its not popular in the UK...but here...ya...it's kind of a big deal.
 
I was poking fun at Blackmasks contradiction over characters that don't need figures then his desire for a Dexter figure :lecture



More like this whatshisname guy...

:nana:

Dexter is the main character,

if you wanted to poke fun at me (which was a miserable attempt lol)

you could have said it is like making a Deb figure, since no one cares about her, or Doakes, (which Ironically has a bobble head)
Why would Dexter not need a figure? your logic baffles me :lol

Well i don't know or care about or even think anout Dexter, the only reason i mentioned it is to highlight the glaring contradiction of preference between this...

What I don't get is getting customs of figures that already exist, or customs of figures that are not worth getting a figure over, characters that no one really cares about

Which is simply an opinion over ones preference for characters that are worth it and aren't

And this...

is like, Jason customs, there are so many Jason figures out there,

but Myers there is not a lot, so I would buy a Myers Custom if I could,
same with Dexter, I need a Dexter figure, really do,

You basically said particular characters aren't worth getting figures, (which is how i feel about Dexter, no offense) and then said a particular character is worth a figure :slap :lol

Contradiction at its finest.

There are lots of customs that make no sense for figures to you and to me, but they do for others, that's all i'm saying.

A characters worth is upto the fans not the non-fans

:peace
 
John Blake figure will be made, and you won't get more than 1 or 2 figures from your beloved X Men FC

A little dose of reality for 'ya :lol

actually the one that is wrong here is YOU

since Dexter is the MAIN character of a series, just like HOUSE, or
Rick Grimes, or Marty Mcfly,
Main characters of movies, MAIN,

just because you Hate Dexter doesn't mean there should not be a Dexter figure... that seems kinda stupid,
is like: "I hate Terminator so anyone that wants a Terminator figure is an idiot"
that is what you are pretty much saying, which is pretty stupid considering Dexter is the main character of his show, His name is the name of the show for God's sake.

what I mean is figures from supporting characters or characters that were in the movie for a couple of minutes, I don't really get that, people that do that are probably doing it because of being completists
 
*cough* poor people thread *cough*

:lol :lecture

You hungry? You want some customs?

Oooh oooh, is this the thread in which we get to post LULZ about the Customs forums?? My turn

"Here is our $300 custom Gordan figure. We are friends with Hot Toys, they said they are not making one, so you can buy this now"

"We are only making $350 custom figure, not selling head sculpt, because we don't want our stuff recasted and sold for a fraction of the cost. . oh the body?? It's a recast body because legit bodies are too expensive, so it's much cheaper to buy recast at a fraction of the price, it allows us to keep our price low."

"I just spent $400 on a custom outfit, and $200 on a custom head, but no way in hell am I paying $50 for a TrueType body, I'll just buy a recast body for $25."

In WGP Indy thread, "I constantly amazed at the lack of tact from the members of this forum" . . . runs into HT Bespin Luke thread " Cmon, HT quit ******* around and release this thing already"

Oh yeah, and the whole "You can only recast stuff that we say you can recast, like bodies, recast bodies are okay. You can never recast heads, unless it's a mass produced head like Indiana Jones or Terminator or Joker, and don't forget, bodies are okay to recast. . . unless Rainman made it. You can recast a Trevor Grove head ONLY if it was produced by Sideshow, you can't recast a Trevor Grove head he sold himself. . . and for God's sake don't say Trevor Grove's name three times out loud, or else demon lawyers hired by Showtime will swoop in with their attache cases and shut the boards down."

I love seeing the stuff get made in those threads, and there's some wonderful work being created, but those are a wacky bunch of characters posting there.

You forgot that some of those guys *****ing about the recasters actually have unauthorized recasts as their own sigs and avys. :lol
