@Lowtier4life @DoubleGaijin Not quite. Those apply if the importer is the manufacturer and does have the proper paperwork. But there's been no clear rules for secondhand items and things shipped from proxies or individuals where they clearly won't have the proper forms since they aren't the manufacturer

Passing this on as a concerned collector. I'm still reading up on it at the moment but July 8th the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission requires mandatory e-filing for all regulated consumer products at the time of entry into the U.S. and if the shipper doesn't have their ducks in a row your item(s) are subject to seizure and / or destruction with potentially little to no recourse depending on the situation. I already canceled a few pre-orders and modified my AmiAmi orders. Word is to avoid shipping with DHL for the time being. Putting this out now since apparently CPSC is already testing the waters with this and some people have reported problems. I'd give it a day or two to let the news hit before emailing any storefronts you have pre-orders with but I'd still follow up on it soon. I feel this is gonna bite a lot of people.

@Alph4M00n You're ignoring the point that proxies like Buyee use those same codes that include toys and collectibles on the customs forms though, and they definitely won't have the proper paperwork since they're not the manufacturer but are treated as such since they are the 'importer'

@Alph4M00n Right, but what about second hand/used items from individuals sold through auction sites, things purchased through proxies, or custom hand made items? It seems like anything remotely similar to 'toys' or 'collectibles' on customs forms is going to be looked into more closely, no?

i understand getting your items confiscated is frustrating and scary, but spreading misinformation helps no one and fear mongering makes everything worse

The July 8th situation is gonna make me freak, they’re already moving. + it’s not just playline, they’re snatching bjds too. tf is wrong with this place. Avoid DHL is the word on the street and get your stuff shipped before July 8….

@preterniadotcom Are these sculpts intentionally awful? We already know the outdated joints and lack of face printing is typical with McFarlane.

@bonecasstle Box office aint good at all, in any sense, and the demos are super lopsided toward older people. But maybe they're banking on merch sales more than other films. I'm surprised there isn't more Amazon exclusive toys/movie items!

It doesn’t seem like Amazon actually cares about the box office for #MastersOfTheUniverse. According to the chief of domestic distribution at Amazon MGM, this is a “solid start” for the franchise due to the positive reception and an anticipated success when it hits streaming.

@DiamondSpiderP Didn't meant to insult you and call you a Tbolts fan then 😂. Once Hasbro secures retailer orders, they've made their money in full. So even if it hits deep clearance, the retailers eat that cost, not them. This and the Widow/QS packs are fighting for lowest appeal for sure.

@OneTurnsToN0ne @ScarletRed616 It's kind of wild to me how people will collect figures for decades and still have zero concept of how they are made and what costs the most money to do

@ScarletRed616 They know what they're doing, these are the easiest reuse possible. Two of those figures are 99% reused parts.

@ThatzFlamez Between the 2 DP figures, the only new parts are the head/hands/belt for the red one. The rest is all re-use. Cavillrine is the only one with substantial new parts, and probably because they'll re-use it for something else. It always comes down to tooling cost vs re-use potential

@ToyNerdProd We’re getting “concept art” deadpools with new parts that weren’t in the film and the cavillrine in the same wave. I know deadpool’s the more popular character obvs, but it’s super lame that a year later we still don’t have a full new avengers team. It’s NWH all over again

@AcquaintSTHFan Ah, good catch. I'm not paying attention to what I need to be. So if that's the basic Turtles artic scheme, that's pretty similar to the DC Basics but now with double jointed elbows

@ToyNerdProd Ngl I think the line will be $10, it's just Cynthia Utrom Bot looks to be a "feature"/deluxe figure based on the stuff on the concept art.

So... concept art for TMNT Mutant Mayhem 2 figures have leaked and it reveals the design of a particular character who fans were hoping would be in the movie and... oh my god I hate their design. I'll include the images below (including likely a spoiler for the final battle).

@AcquaintSTHFan Oh yeah I see that in the description now! I hope the articulation scheme in the diagram on there isn't final for the Turtles because they can't be a collector line at the $20 price and not have articulated ankles...

@ToyNerdProd They're Mattel. Based on the pics it says they'll be 6" scaled figures now.

@b4s_burner @preterniadotcom The tooling from the previous figure would have probably had the hands gang molded with other parts that are the same color already. It may have actually cost them more to modify the molds to not include them.

@MaxxTheSnack14 Because tooling is expensive. Re-use will always be prioritized where it makes sense over brand new sculpts. Also concept art sometimes changes and with how rushed these Spidey movies are, I bet there was a lot of that here too.

New Spider-Man Marvel Legends Idk why they didn’t just make the Brand New Day ones the actual movie suits… why are they comic editions? That being said, I am going to go broke.

@preterniadotcom It's absolutely wild that he's still not using pinless limbs or face printing on figures yet. Even the kids lines from other companies are getting that treatment now.

@b4s_burner @preterniadotcom Not quite. There isn't a single 'new' thing here. It's the Deadpool 2 figure down the extra hands and all, just with the Strong Guy wave Deadpool harness
