What's your favorite toy company?!

Posted in Action Figure Chatter

ex.
Toybiz
Mattel
Hasbro
Hot Toys
Diamond Select
DC Direct (that's a toy company... right?)
NECA
Kenner
Shocker Toys
McFarlane Toys
ect.

Personaly, I'm startin to like Diamond Select... I've been collecting Ghostbusters minimates, and I LOVE their BttF Delorians... The Stay-Puft bank was epic also...

Toybiz is a CLOSE second... mainly 'cause of Marvel Legends...


What do you guys think?

I agree they had some awesome lincesces and they really put them to work.

I think Kenner's T2 line better than Playmates T4 line hands down. Bio fleash regenartor??? That alone wins the areument.

Kenner was the bomb.

I wish Hasbro didn't take them over and they still excisted as a seperatre company. Just inmagine the stuff they'd being doing now if that was the case.

Amen to that. I'd give up all this fancy articulation nowdays for the personality and quality and durability you got with good old kenner products. They had some great lines:

STAR WARS
The Dark Knight Collection
Indiana Jones
Batman Returns
Alien
Batman The Animated Series
Terminator
Batman Forever
Batman and Robin
Super Powers

Yamato for import figures/statues of hot anime chicks.
Toynami is okay but quality control is abotu as good as Neca's and they're over priced.

in order

Toybiz
Matty b/c of DCU classics
Neca
Hasbro - 6 inch only
revoltech - wish they were 6 inches not 5.
Plan b toys

And what ever company made those Shi figures.

And if McFarlane Military had Toybiz articulation that would be freakin awesome. I have some resaurus special forces that will be combined w/ red skull and ironman... it aint looking too good just yet...

I would say its NECA for me, as they are the producers of over 50% of my collection. Some others are Mcfarlane and Mezco.

NECA for the win!!!!!

I mostly collect t.v and movie figures so NECA is number 1 for me. I also enjoy their awesome sculpt and their poa is starting to improve.

Has anybosy seen that T2 Arnold sculpt? It's dare I say perfect? It has an amazing likness to Arnold.

I picked up some gremlins a few months ago and they were great too!! Plus the boxset came with 17 accessories!!! Now that's attention to detail!

I used to love Macfarlane too but they pretty much got out of the movie toy benuess a few years ago. However their Robocop is still one of my favorite toy of all time!!!

All I have to say is to NECA is bring cult classics back with new charaters and inproved poa!!!!!!!

I think I like Diamond select quality wise. They have made some great Star Trej figures. Mattle would get the nod but they DC line is hard to find a overpriced. At one time I was a hasbro enthusiast but quality and price issues have soured me of late.
