A lot of the breakage from the hiya figures seem to come from people trying to take them apart. I haven't really heard anything about those that are posing them or "playing" with them.

Same with Fss 5.0 Jane, FSS 6.0 Dojo, Retaliation Red Ninjas, and Hiya Colonial Marine Figures |

I don't think I've heard much complaints since the Injustice line, but those figures were still made with the old-style joints instead of the new pinned joints RoboCop has and came off feeling 'gummy' in their movement, imho. |

Hiya is currently the *cheapest* online-only 18th-scale manufacturer, from what I can see. Even including licensing fees they're still only $20.
https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Search?SearchText=hiya I've been judicious with Hiya stuff, but I've had no real QC issues. My big complaint is that for some reason they seem to make them in a 3.75" scale rather than 4", so Robocop looks small next to ME Joes. |

Uh-oh?if they are 3.75, I?m likely out. 4? or bust for modern style.

Yeah, you used to be able get cheaper than that with JoyToy via some Aliexpress coupon voodoo (my lowest was $18 CDN with free shipping), but those seem to have adjusted upwards over the last month or so so now the base is about $24 USD.

Likely a mix of bootlegs, factory rejects, as well as questionably acquired products. Is the entire Series 1 of Action Force still up? lol

Naw. I don't know 100% if Joytoy has an official store on there like Hasbro does, but (https://32160998877shop.aliexpress.c...7565c8aaygDlKI) certainly is close enough for government work. I suspect most are sellers who buy cases wholesale and then parcel them out, but I've never ordered any Joytoy product that even has a hint of bootlegness about it.
I think the key is that the toys are intended for the Asian market, rather than stuff like Action Force that isn't. Last edited by GeoffDes; 05-17-2022 at 12:01 PM.. |

SmallJoes' clearance section is also a good place to find lower prices for JoyToy.
