CONFUSED COLLECTOR: “THIRD PARTY? I WASN’T EVEN INVITED TO THE FIRST OR SECOND ONES!”

A third party brand is a brand that provides an alternative product, not supplied by the primary brands to the customers (thanks, Google!).

BREAKING NEWS:

“THIRD PARTY? I WASN’T EVEN INVITED TO THE FIRST OR SECOND ONES!”

ThreeZero. SooSoo Toys. Star Ace. ToysEra. Manniple (hehe…nipple). NOTA Studio. Blitzway, and many more. Those companies all have one thing in common: they have been defined by the toy community as ‘Third party’ brands.

A third party brand is a brand that provides an alternative product, not supplied by the primary brands to the customers (thanks, Google!). Basically, any action figure that is not coming from the bigger brands (Hasbro, Mezco, Hot Toys…) is considered a third party brand, it seems. For example, we’ve seen countless times collectors ask for a one sixth scale figure, in the very official form of a post on facebook: a picture of an unreleased character, with a text saying “HOT TOYS WHEN?”, but when a third party brand does release that character, collectors seem to not want it, because it does not come from the big brands that they trust. What could be the issue?

“I’ve heard that there is a third party, yes. It’s nice and all, but I wasn’t even invited to the first and second ones” says Paul, a long time Hot Toys collector. “Why would I even get to the third party if I wasn’t invited before? I’d rather just wait that Hot Toys announces the toys I want when they have their own party!”.

Some third party brands are more legit than other, and one of the best part about the ‘unofficial’ ones are the names they come up with to avoid raising any eyebrows (*cough* copyright issues *cough*). ToyFarce will hold a ‘Third party name generator’ the whole weekend on social media (instagram and facebook stories), so please, visit the pages and give us some characters, and we’ll come up with their third party names!

REVIEW: SOOSOO TOYS “MR BUTCHER”

This week, we’re looking at the “Mr. Butcher” figure from Soosoo Toys!

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

SOOSOO TOYS “Mr BUTCHER”!

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

This week, we’re looking at the “Mr. Butcher” figure from Soosoo Toys. Not to be confused with a character called “Butcher” that looks exactly the same in a TV show. This one has nothing to do with it. That’s why he has a different name (wink wink nudge nudge).

Last week, I received a notification with the tracking number of that figure, and the next day, I saw those pictures:

Holy crap! Charlie Day and Karl Urban’s cousin!

Needless to say, it made me clench my butt a little, since it does NOT look like the figure from the promo pics. A few days later, the figure arrived, and it looked MUCH better than that. So it was just a matter of someone managing to take the most horrible pics of that figure, so that we don’t have to. Thank you for your service! Please never take pictures again :)

The figure looks very good. SooSoo Toys killed it with that “Mr. Butcher”. The likeness of the headsculpt is very good (even the crazy one!). The figure comes with a ton of accessories also, including extra hands, an assault rifle, a sniper rifle, mags (with painted bullets in them), crowbar, drill, and all that anyone would need to torture people, and a base with the logo from a TV show, which has nothing to do with the figure (wink wink). Oh yeah, and a baby. With an extra head too.

*“Who you trying to get crazy with, ése?”*

Totally unrelated logo on the stand!

Weapons with painted bullets in the extra mags!

*“Well, well, well… If it ain’t the invisible c*nt.”*

*“We’ll cross that bridge when we burn it.”*

*“We didn’t bring him here for a f*cking Happy meal!”*

You can add a battery under the hat, which then turns on/off when you lightly touch the head. Really creepy!

There goes my sleep for the next few days!

SooSoo Toys also announced a “John Lander” figure, which should come out soon. Once again, this figure has nothing to do with a character from a TV show from Amazon Prime, based on a comic book. I can’t wait to take “John Lander” home… (see what i did there?).

More news at 11:00… or in third party terms, “Additional information sixty minutes after 10:00”!
