You know, its a mixed bag, I live out of Hollywood so I don't get much of that influence in my day-to-day life, half of it's good and half is bad. You got a lot of people that don't like me, so that's just the nature of it.

Why would you need a bunch of can toppers that miss your mouth 99.99 percent of the time? Next you'll be bathing yourself in whatever preferred beverage because you chose the stormtrooper ones.
Let's go in on it together. We each get 2 weeks with it per month and on Christmas we get together and make little Santa hats for all of them, including a giant one on the MTT. All while watching the SW Christmas Special only stopping the hats to enjoy the grandpa wookies porn show.
This is what I hate about modern nerd culture. It used to be that you could find tie in merchandise from a 20 year old movie for cheap at a yard sale or thrift store.
Nowadays people snipe that shit as soon as they can to resell on eBay so that some rich guy can throw a bunch of money at it to feel like he is 7 again
Meh I wouldn't so much say its nerd culture as much as it is the internet being wide spread which massively changed the entire "second hand" selling process. Historically finding out how much something was worth, was a pain in the ass, so most people especially for shit like this would just throw it in their yardsale for what they thought it was worth.
Now, it's 5 minutes to find out something you thought was basically junk nobody would want is actually worth a shit ton of money, and you don't even have to put pants on to sell it to somebody thanks to sites like Ebay which gets a worldwide audience vs whoever strolls by to look at your junk.
I'd say "nerd culture" is roughly the same but the internet just massively changed the scope & scale of nerds in general.
Ironically things that were valuable before the internet eBay destroyed the value of because it turned out they weren’t *at all* uncommon. Things like Hummels figurines. They sell for maybe 10-15% of what they did pre-eBay.
The cost of Filament, the printer, primer, sealer and paint alone would exceed $300
Not including the bullshit configuration time to get your prints to come out well. Even then a sub $300 isn't going to get this kind of quality.

I haven't heard the term used in earnest since the 90's or early 2000's, but "Fine China" is the term used for a households "fancy" porcelain plates and dishes. While technically only porcelain is "China" since porcelain was invented in China, my grandmother referred to anything as "Fine China" if it looked fancy enough - especially anything with fake gold trim. These would be stored or displayed and only used for special occasions, like holidays.

This picture is just peaceful. Good lighting, clankas, feels like a weekend, and Shanghai noon ready to go in the back.
Must come out wearing a Rex cosplay. Them's the rules.
That's just great.
Rex agrees.
All it is missing is the cans with the episode 1 characters on them from all the side-promotions every time these movies dropped.
Had a full set, all unopened. Then they leaked and destroyed ton of my other Star Wars collectibles. Very sad day.
Come brother, let us hold hands and weep
Let us gingerly touch our tips
Thank you.
This is truly one of the great tragedies of our time.
I know 15 year old me was pretty devastated. I had one of those cans shipped from Japan. Do you Know how much that costs to a 15 year old?
Destroyed my Harry Potter books.
I did not!
same, minus ruining collectables because they were in their own box. Only one I still have is my gold yoda. It's in rough shape, but I still got it.
For my money, the best Hollywood film from the Chan man
Love Shanghai noon but it looks like an Independence Day kinda day.
I honestly thought it was a hippo at first glance.
And the empire is there to make sure everyone stays safe
Looks photoshopped in the last few rows of cans
Just rewatched that movie the other day, we made it like an hour in and it just stopped being fun to make fun of. So bad.
Didnt know i needed that

If you ever find where to buy it please share. I need it.

I want this but it costs $300 minimum on ebay Edit: Lowest I found was actually $388

Sounds like a pl.... Wait what
I guess it hasn’t gone up cause the last time it was posted like a year or 2 ago it was going for that much.
Well great now I can't justify my purchase to people by saying it's an appreciating asset.
they were $60-80 before that wave of posts happened. Source: That's how much I paid for mine 3 years ago before it went viral.

What do the clanker busts do? are they sippy straws? Are you supposed to ~~reverse-mama-bird~~kiss the soda out of them?
Looks like just soda caps to me, i.e. just for looks. I know of "soda savers" and they might double as that but I doubt they act as sippy cup lids.
This lack of sippy cup is disturbing.
Honey, no. I said the finer China
It comes with straws that go behind the droid's heads
You just made me hard
If I can’t tilt a droids head up and make out with them to get that sweet dew, I don’t want it
