It's more likely the plastics actually are that crap. They're definitely overpriced crap that could be straight out of Nottingham.

I've always thought the price point was ridiculous but apparently I'm about the only person that does.

What the fuck are they? Is it for a game or just for collectors?
And by collectors I mean sad lonely fuckers that even their Mothers have given up on

I bet Curtis loves them!

Very Meh

£8 - £10 for a single figure, they are expensive, but that's about the same price you'd pay for a GW Warhammer character figure. The character + mech kits I'm a bit less happy about because size-wise you're looking at a model that's not much bigger than a 40K Terminator and will set you back £25 - £40.

Soda Pop is for collectors, the models are complicated to assemble and require patience and skill, they're more for display than gaming. I love Soda Pop miniatures, and I can afford them too, but for animé style display models I'd sooner spend my money on larger models, of which there are many. But anyone who thinks Soda Pop miniatures are crappy doesn't know what they are talking about, they're terrific, it's just that they are in a particular style that not everyone gets; some people are a bit conservative and old-fashioned and don't take to the cartoony style of Soda Pop. Personally I love it.

I wear the same things, even though they don't quite fit properly, its difficult to try and fit into clothes designed for a twelve year old when you are 45 and weigh 20 stones. Mummy thinks they suit me. Well, she only says that after drinking a bottle of baileys, then she bursts into tears and starts shouting at the cat.
