Thanks.
My old roommate used to lurk /csg/ all the time. He had mentioned them.
it's mixza
Cool, thanks.
they used to be stupid cheap but now they're market price
they outpreform sandisk ultras but you can get those pretty easily
Ah, damn. I'm new to this whole chinkshit tech thing. Which is funny, because I've ordered numerous things from Taobao, but just never technology.
clothing?
Actually, car models, car parts, and a couple of odd weeb figures.
<:thonk:288060975775612929>
For instance, I thought it would be amusing to have a 1/18 scale model of a Changfeng CS7.
>car parts
I've got an imported car that they stopped building in Japan in 1987, but built in China until like 2013. I needed a rear window gasket.
>weeb figures
a company called Chaoercomics made a couple of figures for a show I like that were entirely original designs, rather than cheapy bootlegs. so I bought them.
What show?
Madoka?
Ah.
Never gave it a shot.
The only person to recommend it to me was a furry.
How was the quality of the figs?
Honestly, considering they were $15 apiece shipped? they were really nice quality. they were nendoroid sized, but used Revoltech-style clicky ball-joints.
I've seen worse seams on actual Goodsmile products
Neat.
I've been meaning to pick up more figures, bit I've wasted enough money on gunpla that I haven't completed yet.
Lemme see if I can dig up a couple of the comparison pictures I took when I first recieved them.
a comparison of a white ball joint from one of the Chaoercomics figures, and a blue ball joint from Revoltech Woody
Basically the same size as a nendoroid. Madoka on the right is an official Goodsmile piece
All in all, don't buy bootleg figures.
I wanna buy bootleg figma accessories
guns, in particular
do those exist
I've never seen them. I know a friend who would buy bootleg figmas off of ebay. they kept arriving broken. he'd complain and they'd just send him another. usually between the two there were enough good parts to assemble one halfway decent one.
then pour hot glue on them
maybe not.
i bought tweo bootleg figures when i was in china]
one was sakura miku the other was regular miku
one im gunna chink a friend with the other im gunna chink my local anime club
Honestly, those look pretty nice.
