1:18 Planet Green Valley preorders (males)

[Sgt301]

Kinda pricey but apparently ouying is back in business as these are available for preorder at Bigbadtoystore.

 

[Videoviper]

Glad they are back, kinda figured these disappeared with the Dino’s.

 

[Sgt301]

Yeah, I’m smarting a little from the cost but I did go ahead and preorder two.

 

[nacho]

I have several of the females that they put out a couple of years ago, but I have to admit that I haven't opened any of them. They look great though. Are they really worth the money?

 

[Sgt301]

They’re better quality when compared with Joytoy or acid rain figures. I’ve not had any issues with figures joints snapping right out of the box and I haven’t had to give them a “hot” shower to manipulate the figures. The paint application is pretty good too. That being said it still smarts to pay that much for a figure.

 

[nacho]

The females look great, just haven't had an opportunity to mess with them, as I don't recall the last time I busted out my 1:18th stuff. But the ones I bought seemed worth it at the time. How much have the prices gone up?

 

[Sgt301]

The last time I checked on eBay they were astronomical (150-200 dollars) 🫤 I was thinking about selling mine when I saw the stupid prices. I’ve opened up a couple and they are the best quality and best looking figures of any I’ve ever bought. I was disappointed that the astronauts and male figures were not produced originally so when I saw these I wanted at least two for my collection. I’m hoping they are well made like the females and fit in with marauders figures. To be honest, after I get my Vietnam Kickstarter figures from marauders I’m going to take a break from buying anything new and focus on customizing what I already have.

 

[nacho]

Oh, I didn't mean the females, I meant the new males people are choking on the prices of.

Damn, that's a lot for the females!

 

[Sgt301]

Lol, if you have any children getting ready for college you could pay off at least two semesters

 

[nacho]

I have one that's two years away, but he's probably going either private or out-of-state, so my female figures won't even cover books!

 

[Sgt301]

Been there before and fortunately we survived it. All of our kids went to a private school out of state and it was cheaper than going in our own state. Go figure.

They are worth $100 to $250 bucks depending on which ones you have !

 

[Sgt301]

I just got a shipment notification from bigbadtoystore that this guy came in and is shipping.

 

[Sgt301]

I have this one in hand as of today and so far the other figure still hasn’t arrived at bbts. Looks great like their other figures but I’ll have to wait to unpack it for photos later because my back hurts and my brain is fried from my part time job sitting down at the computer and phone all day 🫤

 

[Sgt301]

You’re planet green valley? I thought all you PGV guys were, errr, girls? No?

 

[Sgt301]

You can’t remove your vest?!?! That must be uncomfortable to sleep in.

 

[Sgt301]

Who’s the newf? I’m Duke, as in nuke em, and you are gonna be the new 60 gunner. Btw we have a 12 mile road march this weekend.

 

[Sgt301]

I’m the first sergeant, don’t let these guys pull your leg, grab your gear and go get signed in to the company. Btw we have a road march Saturday and you’re the new 60 gunner.

 

[Sgt301]

This is a great figure, very robust joints (I still gave him a warm water bath before trying to move anything) The vest is one of the easiest to fasten on a figure.

[Sgt301]

Son you look sharp in all that kit, forget toting the 60 on the road march, you’re going to be my RTO with that cool radio!
