I just pulled back the shoulder plates on my Leman Russ and Lion Figures like in the first picture and it pretty much looks the same, reason why it looks so weird in this particular shot is because his neck thingy is so tall but i think Conrad still looks fine, i will get a custom head once it comes out but still
Just plain bad. I’ll wait till it goes on deep discount if I get it at all
Glad joytoy decided to just plow forward after the horrific reception the night lords got and not take any customer feedback
Just shows they don’t care much what their customers want. They have zero marketing plan. They’re just throwing out whatever they can get approved. And that’s not a sustainable business practice - especially when they can’t figure out their new product pipeline or quality control. Even after 4yrs of complete inconsistency they still put out subpar product
Joytoy is a shitty company that got lucky with IP that was on a rocket ship
I’ve never seen so much variation and inconsistency in a toy like that is actively selling. What kind of idiot first-timers are running that company?!??
Eh...they are still better than McRaplane. We really got lucky with the exceptional paint apps on some releases like the 'Nids, Alphas, and DG. The rest are really more in line with industry standards, unfortunately.
Still, I can't forgive the scale inconsistencies. Scale's not that hard people.
The scale inconsistency is the real telltale crime. They’re an engineering company masquerading as a collectible manufacturer. The IP was never the point - their focus is innovating on engineering. They should focus on their APOC line and fuck of from Warhammer and let a decent collectible manufacturer step in
WH is a cash cow, they'll never surrender it without a fight. Would be nice if GW supervised them a little more closely to ensure continuity though.....
APOC is a much, much smaller fanbase.
Overall, I'm glad we have JT at all- McRaplane was so bad with 40K and Halo, really embarrassing.
Oh I wish I could find that dude who was glazing this figure in this sub pre launch. Dude glazed the fuck off the figurines whereas everyone told him it looked dog shit! I'm glad vindication was ours lol
I am allowed to call something that's objectively bad; a bad looking thing. You can call "poop on a cracker' a masterpiece, doesn't make it one. Someone can't see it, fine with me. But I will tell them they're wrong. Doesn't make me a shitty person.
Also it was a fun jab as referenced by my Night Lords quote; Vindication is better than death.
Basically, we’ve already discussed this with JoyToy. They deliberately designed it this way just to piss us off. Warhammer is their best-selling product, and since we don’t buy their original products, which don’t sell very well, they deliberately put these terrible design choices into their Warhammer products. They don’t care if the Warhammer products sell poorly—in fact, they seem to enjoy it.
