[Monkeywrench]

We have some news threads about this line already but it's time we have one central location for discussion on the Lost Planet 2/3 line from Toy Notch.

Stay tuned as we'll have an exclusive Q and A in the next day or so.

Toy Notch Q & A

 

[K-Tiger]

Will they be out before hell freezes over?

 

[fogger1138]

June/July for the first wave, last I heard.

 

[Videoviper]

I heard it was "lost"

Ugh.:explode:

 

[WVMojo]

Aren't the molds at the bottom of the Pacific in some freak ship accident?

 

[K-Tiger]

No, that's a freighter full of those PoC Cock Master and Blowtorch figures.

Pre orders are up.

I was expecting $20. but actually seeing the price makes it hard to pull the trigger. I hate to be that guy, but I think I'm going to wait and hope they go on clearance.

 

[MAJOR BLOOD]

At least with that place if you do a bigger order it is free shipping on the items. Helps out a little bit if you want all of them.

They really don't look like $20 figures from a quality standpoint.

 

[Joerhyno]

They look to "cheap" to me, some of the details are there, but I dunno. Remind me of the Micromen figures that came out 5 or so years ago.

 

[fogger1138]

BBTS has them listed as well, same price.

 

[Obi-Shinobi]

And it's about style too. For me, the ARW stuff is more of what I'd want from an alternate "military" line. These things just don't appeal to me as much.

Thanks for the heads up.

Lost Planet Toys, Action Figures, and Collectibles

 

[K-Tiger]

$80 for the Evax. I dunno, man.........

 

[MAJOR BLOOD]

I guess it depends on quality of it and what type of use you can get out of it. I am leaning more towards the Hardballer if I get a mech. Is a good amount of scratch for it though.

 

[starwarsgeek]

I was excited about these at a $10 price point, but $20+ I think I'll pass, at least for now. Until someone gets them in hand and can show actual pics, I'm not paying $20+ for those figures. I won't collect that line, they will just be custom fodder for me, and $20 is too much for fodder unless it has 85% usable pieces for something.

 

[The Ewokhunter]

Sheesh, these companies must think all collectors live at home with their parents and get free toys.

 

[Vindicare86]

I like the figures, don't get me wrong, but they definitely remind me of the failed Video Game All Stars line from a few years back with the Crysis and Assassin's Creed figures, which were decent, but would've been underwhelming as hell for any more than they were selling for.

 

[K-Tiger]

THAT is what they remind me of!

 

[NSA]

I think they said $20 was the targeted pricepoint the whole time, which makes sense considering the (likely) limited production runs. Still.. nothing is really "WOWING" me about them.

Probably need some "in hand" photos to really gauge the value.

 

[K-Tiger]

I'm not saying the price is a surprise, or isn't supported by necessity. I am saying that from the pics I've seen they don't appear to be quality figures.

I agree that I definitely need to have some in-hand shots before I can form more than a cursory opinion.

 

[NSA]

That was more in reference to SWG saying he was excited for these at a $10 price. From those pics, no, they do not look like quality products.

I will give them the benefit of the doubt (but not money!) to reserve judgement until I see some pics from respectable outlets

 

[K-Tiger]

Which of us is gonna take one for the team, then?

 

[NSA]

August is a long way off. Hopefully they'll have them in hand to show @ SDCC maybe? They were there last year with the prototypes. Perchance we get a scoop then?

 

[K-Tiger]

If they don't have actual product by SDCC I'm gonna have serious concerns about these things. How many members do we have attending CC this year?

 

[NSA]

Me, MB, maybe Rex if his vagina isn't acting up. Not sure about other members?

 

[Monkeywrench]

I just pre-ordered one of each figure. I passed on the Mechs

 

[daremo]

Yeah, I wasn't feeling these before and now it's a definite pass. There's too much coming out or available soon that will suit me better.

 

[NSA]

I liked the unpainted ones at SDCC last year, but the paint jobs seem to take something away.

 

[K-Tiger]

Kind of has that caked-on look to it. Like the war paint on those ladyboys MW goes in for.

 

[NSA]

No wonder he preordered so fast!

 

[MAJOR BLOOD]

Some pictures from World Scope in Japan. Not really anything new but they did mention that wave 2 is slated for 2015.

 

[K-Tiger]

Wave 2? Howsabout they actually get wave 1 out?

 

[Monkeywrench]

Looking forward to getting these!

 

[MAJOR BLOOD]

Wave 2? Howsabout they actually get wave 1 out?

Someone asked about wave 2 so they gave an estimate. Hopefully they do pretty good so that another wave will happen. Seems like this will be a smaller run than AR stuff.
