That sounds inappropriate!

Some digging from Silver Optimus concerning the nature of video presentation (where we got a lot of the recent details, like the display image) points that we might NOT see anything this weekend, in an official capacity. Deadline for the presentation is a week before the US Toy Fair, and...

I’m sure the it all started as a thought of “why is the government paying to clean up states? Aren’t they supposed to take care of themselves?” Which isn’t THAT far a stretch for an individual who isn’t familiar with the logistical complexities that exist between the states and Federal...

Hasbro has released official info on the next set of Authentics discount figures: In Alpha (the big ones), Hasbro officially sent out details on Mirage. But on the Hasbro Shop site, Hasbro revealed a new Bravo (the small ones), Elita-1...

I would still push for something with 8GB VRAM for future proofing. 4060 or the 7700S in the Asus Tuf 16 I linked to are fairly comparable. AMD is cheaper, Nvidia has better performance (when you're talking about both hitting over 70 FPS on mainstream games, the extra 10 or so FPS the Nvidia...

By level 50, you should have unlocked the occultist. Any time you salvage legendary gear at the blacksmith, you should be unlocking "Aspects" which can be applied to gear at the Occultist. This can upgrade Rare into Legendary, but it will REPLACE any existing aspect on the item. If you are...

These days, those two games are probably completely viable with modern integrated graphics. Seriously, the last couple generations have seen integrated graphics reach a point where the “entry graphics card” has been all but eliminated. From what I’ve seen, the biggest trade off on a gaming...

Better make sure you get the United G1 Toy version so the Devastation version has a gun, though.

Hey, Best Buy just chucked this up on sale! https://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-victus-15-6-full-hd-gaming-laptop-amd-ryzen-5-7535hs-8gb-ddr5-memory-amd-radeon-rx-6550m-512gb-ssd-mica-silver/6578933.p?skuId=6578933 The biggest shortfall is the older GPU and the 4GB of VRAM (I wouldn’t recommend a...

A couple of questions to “narrow it down” a bit: First off, what is your budget? Next is, do you have a particular form factor in mind (thin and light or maybe a little chonkier). Do you have preferences on how good the screen is? In addition, what “level” of gaming you looking at? Just...

And we’re getting Skybyte and Galvatron early on! The simple fact Megatron and Galvatron may be portrayed as separate characters at the same time is novel is this sort of medium

I’m telling you, it’s those cel-shaded windows. They just seem to “complete” the look for a cartoon-based Prime. I’m holding out for some sort of sale or discount, myself. Not sure that will happen, but I was always ready to settle on my grey one. This one would be a bonus, anyway. It’s not...

Some of these questions are better left to staff (it’s been a hot 20 years since I’ve had to learn about this stuff), but… Yes. You do have to pay to operate a website, in that, to get a website online, you need to be able to “host” the site somewhere. That involves hardware that needs to be...

I feel a LOT of the issues we’ve brought up in the last few posts stem from a couple of issues: 1. Around 2013, Hasbro (and most companies followed suit) decided to “split” the action figure market. Kids and collector products were fully divested and you got things like the lackluster ”kids...

By THE site means that a majority of consumer base frequents such a site. Tens of thousands, if not more, daily visits. The internet is too fractured for any one site to garner that sort of exposure. Especially in the days of social media where there are a TON of fans who might not even...

I think it would be nice for Hasbro to just get back on the same page as their media efforts. I think the last toy line that was actually in sync with its media was RiD15. Not months/years late, not having characters regularly appearing in the show not get toys months/years after the fact...

You’re probably coming in at a better time than at launch. Playing since launch, they’ve done a LOT of work with quality of life stuff on inventory and some necessary difficulty balancing. Many of my base frustrations remain, though. I think there is still work to be done on the difficulty...

So…. I’m sad there isn’t much truck there, but at least we have confirmation Optimus Primal is the ass. I’m also highly bemused by such a deep cut in Apelinq. Not just in him being here (he WAS featured in the last “major” film), but that they went and referenced the original Transmetal repaint...

Minor update to the new round of Epic Heroes (Power The Force): In addition to the revealed figures, case listings also have a revised Mandalorian with the additional articulation in addition to a blaster and Darksaber with extra flair. It also looks like the bandolier might be a separate...
