The "What you just got in the Mail" Thread

I don't think I have seen that version before. Nice pic, really shows off the black glitter to its best effect.

 

^ Thanks, Yuck. This Tsuchikorobi is from the Wonderfestival that just passed. Always happy to add more yokai to the mix

 

Congrats! Looks great

 

^ So good!!! More gorilla pics, Anthony!

 

Thank you Cyber Ann, I gotta figure out the write location, maybe a record shop.

 

That is the giant? It has yellowed a lot but I think it's much better looking.

 

I'm not sure about size, since I don't know what other sizes were made of this sculpt. But here is a size comparison photo I took yesterday:

 

I feel like clear vinyl is like wine... Gets better with age. There's something charming about the yellowness.

 

^ Very nice! ^
And I agree with Maddie, I never mind the yellowing~

 

^ Love it! Beautiful paints~

 

^ Passed. Regret it right about.....NOW. DOH! Super Nice.

 

Great Walking Killer above!!! I got this little beast in from Lulubell yesterday.

 

Painted Walking Killer is lovely Brooklyn_Vinyl! I should not have held off on this 1st painted release

 

Broken Dreams in the mail is what I got today.

 

Oh man....truly a bummer on a great toy. Where did you order it from ? Looks like it was well packed too...
Thankfully this hasn't happened to me, but I imagine there isn't much recourse except to hope it was insured... so at least you get your money back ?

 

Oh man... That must have hurt to open. :/ Hopefully they have a return policy? It doesn't look like that can be glued without it being obvious.
You're not alone though.
I ordered a Karz Works Hidebehind from Amazon a week ago, (they had a CRAZY low temporary price on it) and got it on Monday... Also broken. One of the mandibles. It's the cold weather causing it, it makes sofubi a lot more fragile. Thankfully it's a clean break right at the base of the mandible so it won't even be noticeable when glued back together, but such a bummer.
I think I'm going to refrain from ordering anything in the winter from now on unless I can help it.

(no photos because I'm lazy)

 

If it is broken at the seam superglue will do a really nice job of sealing it together. My Zag broke in the same place on his leg and I was able to fuse it with glue when the vinyl is "cold" and then still heat it up to get it to fit in the leg hole. You'd never know looking at it and leg is still posable.

 

Must be nice not having OCD. That shit would kill me being able to see it or not. My crazy ass mind would know and not allow me to enjoy him the same as his brothers.

 

^^^ Lol, I get that way about some things, but mostly noticeable paint rubs and worse missing accessories. As long as damage it is completely indiscernible, my mind will let me look past it. I can also sometimes accept manufacturing errors as official damage, heh.

 

Man that wall thickness looks super thin... like 1mm or so.. Seems like it should be more like 2mm or 3mm thick. Not surprising it popped off if it is actually that thin.

Some of the vinyl you get in M1, Yamomark, Marmit etc. could almost be 4mm in thickness for some walls.. Chances are this was made in one of Medicom's China factories? It's a great toy though! Shame this happened.. is the seller going to send a replacement?
