Sorry this is a duplicate of this...
http://rotocasted.com/toy/7024/
It would be great to improve the tagging system. Its really hard to find toys. For example if I only search NY Fat this http://rotocasted.com/toy/7024/ wouldn't come up as I didn't type EXACTLY the full title into the search. Is this fixable?
Plus it would be great to be able to edit existing library items to fill in blanks, correct spelling or upload a better picture... -

Sound good! BTW well done, loving the site and can't wait for the new features. Adding a forum to chat with other collectors would be great as well :)

when searching for toys, try always using the auto suggest - both for toy name and artist. input the minimal amount of info into the search and see if slightly different dpelling comes up.
since users are inputing the toys it´s hard to keep track of spelling, but whenever we see there´s a difference we try and make all the toys in the series or from the artist uniform :) -

To order just email them. I never get through their shopping cart, but they're ok on taking order through email.

They are great people to deal with. You'd be amazed how small the shop is compared to the impact they've had on the Tokyo toy scene. Not much bigger than a rich person's walk-in-closet!

Seoop is an enthusiastic sushi chef, whose restaurant is located in a busy Australian subway station. His passionate nature often scares customers, but he always means well. When he's not slicing & dicing, Seoop is flying off with his trusty jetpack to retrieve exotic - & occasionally tasty - morsels for his restaurant’s kitchen.

Too bad he's never been released.

Oh no. Now we need to have a huge debate about listing toys that don't exist/have never been released. :)

I don't have any further info, unfortunately. But this minitreehouse serie came through many many obstacles.

Another Minitreehouse obstacle: Heenie Night Edition had defects that caused the arms to break, and a new run was never produced. Many were recalled, so the ones you can find for sale will break when you try to switch arms. Boo.

Qees have keychain attachments so they can be worn as accesories. Your point is moot.
-
-
14 years ago
is not. they come unassembled, so keychaining qee is an option. you can wear almost anything as a keychain, but you wouldn't put in your toy collection. and the point was that this revoltech is much more a collectible toy than a keychain.

I think a debate could go on for ages about what can be deemed a toy suitable for Rotocasted, but I thought Rotocasted started for collectible toys i.e. art toys and designer vinyl. I wouldn't class this figure as either. It's an anime related action figure, which I class as something completely different... but then again, the 'Type' tag is there to differentiate between all the toys and their kind, so I don't see why all toys can't be on this site as long as their correctly tagged as whatever kind of toy they are. I was just saying about the keychains thing, because everyone by now is probably aware of my slight Yummy Breakfast addiction, and although it is a keychain, I see them as mini art toys, because of their humble beginnings as Heidi Kenney's handmade felt creations. Then obviously Kidrobot got involved and saw the potential to bring her creations to a wider audience.
I just clicked on the 'Keychain' tag to see what else I can make examples of, and although I can't stand Kaws, the keychains of his are in a way, shrunk versions of his actual art toys, which is pretty good for people who can't shell out hundreds for one of his proper figures. Anyway, I could write all day about this, but I think I've got my point across. -

So how would you all classify my custom 1 of 1 Elissa Shutak action figure that I paid someone to make me?

The problem is some things should definitely be on here and some things definitely shouldn't, and then there are a lot of of things that maybe could be on here. But once you put the grey area stuff, then the things that shouldn't be here start appearing.
Am I making myself clear? :p
I, for one, think mascots and advertising figures are a definite no no. Others are strictly against toys of characters from movies or comics. It gets complicated.
The toy world itself is pretty ambiguous and we've been having this discussion in different forms for a while. -

Isn't the whole movement a little bit of a grey area? The whole idea is to find the essence of toys and make art with that essence in mind, if I understand it correctly and if you don't accept toys as art you've kinda missed the point and it's all about wether or not some one tells you it's a cool, rare and expensive piece rather than up to your own tastes. Of course this makes it impossible for me to objectively dismiss toys that I personally don't like…
There are a lot of things here that might clearly be art, but that aren't toys, like for instance the busts of Mao with Mickey Mouse ears. That should fall within the grey area aswell (or even be immediately dismissed), since it's a sculpture rather than a toy.
My opinion is, allow everything, but make it easy to sort through it with clear classifications and such as. People will always have different opinions as to what is art and what is beautiful.
But then again, I'm new here… :) -
