The New Nendoroid Stand : Ew
I didn't see a rant flair but if there was one I'd add it to this post.
I got my Tanya 784 a few days ago (ordered from Goodsmile US back in ancient times, finally arrived) and today I opened her. She is sadly one of the ones that comes with the new stand and neck joint (The neck joint is at a slant, kind of hard to describe. No its not warped or broken I know what I'm talking about).
Theres no middle peg!!! I have 78 Nendoroids currently displayed. 5 have the single hole circle bases and 1 isn't using a stand. 52 OF THOSE FIGURES ARE DISPLAYED USING THE MIDDLE PEG. 52 OUT OF 72. Thats around 72% of my displayed figures. I NEED THE MIDDLE PEG. WHY ARE THE DESIGN CHOICES MADE BY COMPANIES ALWAYS BAD???
I knew there was no middle peg but I didn't expect it to be that annoying. I hate it so much. I can live with the neck peg being weird but not the stand. It hangs over the back of the stand and I can't do anything about it cause THERES NO MIDDLE PEG. I feel like it makes the Nendoroid as a whole uglier. It's really the base that I find issue with. I didn't mind it that much on my Oda Nobunaga because they took up alot of space and I would have used the back of the base regardless. On Tanya it feels really noticeable. I'll probably buy more of the good stands from Chibi Chop Shop just to replace the terrible ones.
