Thank you, yes I know that now. Appreciate you watching.

He's on the list for a comparison video! Thanks.

@TheLeadWillWalkTheEarth-4d4m hey thanks! Glad you enjoyed it and got some inspiration from it. Appreciate you.

@LowellLucasJr. 🤣 thanks! The review is on my channel now if you want to check it out.

Good to know! Thanks for watching and suggesting.

Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it.

Yes! Loved that armored Trunks when I was a kid as well.

@@vascotoys with the gold hair, modeled from the cell fight. Pure gold.

Great points for sure! Thanks for sharing your opinion with me and for watching the video.

@@petertalamantes9423 thanks!

@Clintdaddy412 at the time I really thought they were great, but now it's obvious how limited they actually were.

Yes! I miss KB Toys so much.

@@vascotoys I remember as a kid I bought the Faces of Sting action figure set from there. It was my last purchase before they left Omaha.

Hey! You can get some opaque plastic for the windows. I actually use vegetable cutting mats from Dollar Tree that come in two packs for $1.25. Those would work great for that.

Thanks man!

@@yojoeturner you're welcome! Enjoy

Thanks! The gray spray paint and zenithal highlight served as my base coat for the diorama. After that I went to the dropper bottle technique

@@vascotoys I have watched the video 3 times lol. Didn’t notice the spray paint section

I remembered after you mentioned it. Lol

That's awesome, Ernie! Yes, so much of the experience for the American audience was not understanding some of the characters available I'm figure form. Glad you enjoyed.

@exiaR2x78 that's so interesting! After a while the stickiness went away on its own. I guess it just needed some air? Thanks for explaining this!

@vascotoys no worries 😅 been collecting a lot of anime figures for over 16 years. Is one of the interesting things ive learnt about over the years. If you every see listings on Japanese sites they label things as sticky if its got that which throws people off haha

Yeah he should have come with wall-crawling hands for sure. Hope your Retro spidey is issue free and you enjoy!

@@vascotoys thank you

@@Budda514 thank you! Appreciate you watching the video

@fredwilliams9695 thank you 😊

No problem bro 🙂

@fredwilliams9695 thank you 🙏

@@tomjames9681 right!? It was an adventure for sure. I felt like it was worth documenting 🤣. Thanks for watching.

@@vascotoys The moment you pulled out the renew your vows two pack, all I could think was “oh, the one plagued with QC issues”

@tomjames9681 yeah man, that was so annoying. Taught me a lesson for sure. Don't get a figure just for the hands... 🤦‍♂️

@@karascrow very interesting! That's probably how this was stored, but I don't know for sure because I purchased it on eBay. Thanks for the info!

@@vascotoys The yellowing definitely suggests it was stored in poor conditions. It shouldn’t look like that after only twenty years. Maybe at around double that. I’ve still got stormtroopers from Hasbro back around 2004 that are as white as the day they were put on the shelves. I’ve also got some that are definitely a tinge of yellow now. But nothing as bad as this Vegeta. He was not handled with care. 🤣

@@karascrow yes, the Prince of All Saiyans deserved better... 😅

It could also simply be plasticiser leaching, which doesn't mean that it was guaranteed to have been kept in hot temperatures. Just that it was kept in storage for too long, which allows the plastic to start sweating, as well the plasticiser to (I believe so, at least) sort of come off in a sort of gaseous form, creating the sticky build-up that you can feel on the surface of plastic figures that are kept within their packages for too long. The way to prevent this is to open your figures up and let them breathe, effectively, which is much easier for things like newer Japanese figures which have easily opened and resealable packaging, rather than these older things backed on card.

@@batterupman That’s possible too. But wouldn’t it still be more white than yellowed?

Yes! They were great. I'm starting to recollect some of what I had and even some that I wanted and never got as a kid. It's been fun.

@@vascotoys unfortunatelly i've lost many of mine.

@strictlythemed ahhh, same happened to me. The only one I kept was the SS Goku. But, like I said I kind of started recollecting them. There are a ton on eBay.

​@@vascotoys SSJ Goku was my first figure too of this collection. i remember my love was Vegeta anyway, after this collection there was The figures who launche's Ki blast from the hands by clicking the button behind the back

Very cool!

Yeah, as you saw here, things could have gone better with the QC on these Spider-man figures 🤣

@@SonicM216 that's awesome! Glad you enjoyed the video

@@jumblesaleboo Wow!!!! That's a huge compliment. Thank you for taking the time to share that with me. I would love to go there someday.

@@vascotoys it is definitely worth going...The people of Hope BC, are very friendly... My friends Herve Attia, and Scott Hardy have made some great filming locations videos for the movie...Just look up On The Set Of First Blood. I was so lucky to go along with them, when my friend Scott found the lost junkyard location, and the Delmar Barry intro location, before either were made public..They hadn't changed at all, after 30 odd years, when we initially visited the locations. :)

@JoseCarmonaLH I understand what you mean on the articulation for this new Vegeta, but totally agree on the faceplates.

Great idea! Making note of it for sure.

That's awesome and sounds like some amazing memories. Those memories alone make the collecting worthwhile. Thanks for watching the video

This diorama was sold when the video first came out.

I'm so glad to hear the video helped you decide. Enjoy it!

don’t worry about what could’ve been enjoy the memories you had and continue experiencing db-dbs to keep his spirit alive 🙏

also come on why do we hate qui so much

You are so right! The third party companies have caused SHF to step it up. Awesome! These old DBZ figures were so much fun.

Hey Salvador, everything I have for sale is on my eBay and website. Links to both are in the video description.

@yojoeturner I would try something like Hotwire Foam Factory Styrogoo. It takes up very quick and cures in 30 minutes.

@@vascotoysthanks! Sounds like that would work not only on the wood but also on styrofoam, thanks

Thanks so much! I actually have never tried to make a DBZ effect. I mostly focus on making dioramas.
