Would you pay $60 for this action figure?

Depends on the quality of the build, the range of articulation and the amount of accessories included. Though being McFarlane I have low hopes for any of those aspects actually making it worthwhile. But I've spent similar on other brands for quality figures and do not regret it.

But I also don't give a crap about Fallout, so I guess fans would be more willing to buy whatever they could get their hands on.

Make it an Assaultron and we'll talk.

The fact it's a weird Nuka Cola variant makes it extremely kitsch right from the start. I don't even know if fallout fans would want it.
>>
>>11741024
I like the Nuka Cola armor so I'll get it. I skipped their last 'elite edition' since the paint wasn't very good and the Maximo BoS figure had a much nicer silver/gunmetal paint scheme
>>
>>11741014
fuck and no.
>>
>>11741014
I actually want more characters, and want them with "playset items" like a Nuka-Cola vending machine, a dog named "Dogmeat," a police robot, and other things from the games. The power armor suits are too "Warhammer" for my taste.

fuck no, mcfarlane toys aren't even worth $20

>"protoype" shown
>supposed to make people want it
>sloppy paint apps everywhere, and this is supposed to be the perfect prototype used for advertising

Imagine how shit the actual ones will be.
>>
>>11741014
no, if i see something i like i check to see if it's hit the clearance section occasionally
>>
>>11741062
the only playset thing we ever got, sadly

That weird long armed Benny was enough for me to write off McFarlane FO stuff entirely.
>>
>>11741014
The thing that annoys me is that the Nuka Cola Power armor was T-51, not T-60… but Todd refuses to make new molds and just sticks with reuse.

McFarlane Not A Toys is definitely not for someone who cares about details.

I will consider buying a mcfart the day they are 6" and have pinless joints
>>
>>11741196
That really isn't the main problem with mcfarts, which is that they have so few ratchets, and those ratchets are hard rather than soft, in their joints they can barely do any natural poses. 6in would help on being less likely to fall over when in the poses they can do though

Mcfarlane? No way in hell, not after seeing this piece of shit brick

Maybe 40 if it had a bunch of accessories and enough range to recreate in-game movement. As it is it needs a top coat finish to make it look less gummy.

>>11741172
Todd hates anything that relates to the original games.
>>
>>11741122
Ah yes, the thing everyone wants to remember Fallout for, a dog penis joke.
>>
>>11741014
Yes because it looks better than the last Elite with all the same guns

They mean Todd McFarlane not Todd Howard lol

They're practically the same person. Nice folksy personable delivery of shitty product.

Wait for sales on McFarlanes

>>11741020
...Life-size.
>>
>>11741014
That's about what I'd expect to pay for nipslop of similar quality and much smaller size. But Fallout is gay, so no.
>>
>>11741014
No, but I would pay $150 for a quality figure of the same thing from a Japanese, Hong Kong or good third-party Chinese shop. 1000toys was going to do one at one point, but the project seems to have evaporated.

i did get this one, love the T-60
>>
>>11742433
I suspect it doesn't articulate too well. May be wrong.
>>
>>11742433
it has nice articulation in the arms, the hands can only twist. the plates from the thighs onto the hips are a bit limiting but the ankle and knee articulation is okay.
the shoulder plates can be moved to fit to various arm positions.
>>
>>11741085
i've noticed this over time that mcfarlane quality is going down. they really need to get their shit together if they want to command premium prices.
>>
>>11759182
It's not going to happen. They way they are behaving it seems to me the company may be in some kind of financial trouble. They never did this before. They went from max $20 figures to max $60 figures so fast it made my head spin. And it isnt just 3 or 4. Its a bunch of these crazy priced 'elite' editions
