The "Look What I Just Got!" Topic

there are four letters in emmi
the square root of four is negative two
if you take the number of a normal person’s eyes and subtract it by the number of ghid’s eyes you get negative two
but that’s not all
if you rearrange emmi you get memi
memi almost sounds like meme
who posts memes? ghid
but that’s not all
there are seven emmis in metroid dread
if you multiply seven by 18.7142857143 you get 131

Are Starscream’s elbow sockets really flexed, or is that just the lighting?

EDIT: No wait it’s just the paint - that’s a really sloppy application, I can see it missing in other areas as well :c Hasbro kinda dropping the ball ngl

I mean, he is only about three inches tall, you gotta cut them a bit of slack on the paint work

Obviously the full sized figure would have superior paint applications

You say that, and yet I’ve seen better paint applications on one inch Transformer figures

Lack of quality is lack of quality; I’ve been very dissatisfied with most everything they’ve put out since Thrilling 30 ended and it’s saved me a lot of money disinterested me in Transformers as a whole

Although I will say some of the R.E.D/Masterpiece/Platinum figures have been top notch

They’re not going to paint the ball and socket joint, Ghid.
It would get rubbed off after enough use

Also, this is only a $12 mass-retail figure.

True. That would be a big mistake were Hasbro to put paint where it could be easily worn away from normal use.

You’re comparing apples and oranges here, R.E.D, Platinum Edition and MP have a larger budget than a Core Class figure- I doubt Hasbro would deliberately make a “low quality” figure, i suspect the lack of paint apps is not due to negligence, but rather the cost of painting the figure

Plus, the grey plastic used there probably isn’t paint-able in the first place

also R.E.D?! Like what you like man but that line’s kinda garbage

The socket was my complaint - all around the edge are unpainted areas that would’ve been really easy to tackle before the arm got built. There’s a large number of additional areas that could’ve been easy to paint as well and weren’t done up to snuff.

That wasn’t meant as a direct comparison and it’s why the sentences were split that way. I’m obviously not comparing Masterpiece to a $12 figure although $12 really doesn’t buy what it used to, dang but seeing that not too many years ago the quality control on products was much higher has made me more and more disappointed in the products they put out since.

Well, at least they don’t look like Animated.

:goo:

The budget has shrunk over the years, and if you wanted that much paint you would probably be looking at a 16$ or 18$ figure

I don’t like the way things are that much either, but it is what it is and I don’t think it’ll change any time soon

0/10. I ordered a pizza and not only is it days late but this isn’t even food. I’m reporting hasbro for false advertising.
