I think blank bases are GREAT! I just got a 12 pack and customized them all in my style and a few that are mishmashes of customs Ive seen and old-style lps. I think its a good way to keep authentics AND have creative freedom. Its also a great way to not have to spend big bucks on a price gouged dream pet: a base and some paint and you can have the star of your collection for less!
It’s honestly genius for Basic Fun to release a “Customizer Set” with exclusive pets like the rooster, jaguar, etc. Just bases that are of those one time designs. Yeah we have new ones in G7 but it would be nice to not have to paint over those
Lps customizer here! I think these blank bases are great! They're obviously not trying to trick anyone into thinking their authentic yet are made of nearly identical material/molding and they're affordable. They also have a really solid base to paint on that you dont have to put an extra layer/coat of paint over so they end up more smooth in the end result. As someone who refuses to paint over authentic Lps but enjoys the big 5 molds, I use these all the time and i personally swear by them.
I've been using the blank LPS for customs ever since I started and I think they're really great for people that don't like to customize authentic LPS or they can't afford expensive bases. I definitely wouldn't have made as many customs as I have if it weren't for the fake bases. also woo 55 minutes ago- i'm early :)
If I had any blank LPS'S, I would love to make them into my favorite book series of all time, which would be warriors. I just love the book series of Warriors, so much. ❤❤❤
Omg, YESSS Not sure if you know of pinkbunnygirl but she makes a warriors LPS SERIES!!! She also sells customs, but there VERY EXPENSIVE (reasonably ofc, they are hand made)
A blank custom craft pack would be amazing. It could be a good thing for an arts and crafts section of a store. I just got some blank bases and I’m so excited to use them. They look really good.
Very interesting. Love the idea of blank bases. I'd love to customize the ferrets. A memorial of a past pet. Or just have fun with making your own look. Never done it yet. But I'd love to try.
Honestly it depends on the person some people like to use authentic LPS to paint so they can switch up colours or styles or some like to do just eye repaints it really just depends on the person and I would definitely use an already made bases/blank bases always so much potential
The end of last year I bought some. Different bases. I’ve customized most of them and I’m turning 2 into some sculptures! I love them because I’ve have my og lps since I was a kid and I don’t want to customize them
I'm super happy the fake lps are expanding their mold selection. And I'm super glad g7 has a lot of less popular molds, as most the pet customs I wanna make are birds or other animals
wow! Im only 1hour later! I also love the custom lps, they are so nice to have, and customize it just the way you want it to be. I love painting, so these lps are great for me!
I use these to customize my lps now back then I didn’t because I was really young then so I didn’t know and I used authentic lps for customs (had no duplicates) and I bought them from Amazon
For the most part, it squashes the argument of people painting on authentic LPS, but what if the authentic LPS that have those paint jobs are limited and don’t continue to be released and people keep painting on them? They’ll always be releasing more blank molds. That is my only concern. It’s probably just my paranoia….
Kinda unrelated but I’m scared to ask my mom to buy LPs for me. I’ve been using my old lol dolls and stuff to customize and hiding them from her because I don’t want her to know of my hobby because she might think im too old for them. Any suggestions from anyone :(
