Loyal Subjects’ brand name for their 5” collector oriented action figure line. Stands for “BeST ActioN”. In fairness, it’s not short hand. THAT is what the line is called :p https://theloyalsubjects.com/collections/bst-axn They did a bunch of different licenses, but Ninja Turtles seems to be...

Apparently the reason there were no production samples for some of those was because John Warden was going to be the one to take them… I’m eager for more info on Nemesis Enforcer. I’m hoping a general release of some sort, because he is always on my short list of GI Joe figures. I’ll need to...

MCM London was today, and with it came a number of reveals. Apelinq was officially revealed…right as eBay auctions went with in hand images. Again, I know they were limited by the film’s depictions of Apelinq…but SURELY they could have done more to make the robot mode more distinctive from...

I’m assuming Duel Masters, which barely blipped here in the states in the saturated CCG market of 2004. And I’m not even sure the revamp Kaijudo, even saw much released in the US aside from the cartoon on The Hub. (Duel Masters was a cooperative project between WotC and Takara, akin to the...

Toys Are Russ posted looks at both WfC Skywarp and SS86 Galvatron, including a nice comparison with the Legacy release (which ditched the splatter) https://news.tfw2005.com/2024/10/26/transformers-studio-series-gamer-edition-voyager-ge11-skywarp-leader-ss-86-31-leader-galvatron-in-hand-images-524576

No talk of the leaks from earlier this evening? Toys Are Russ got some “early samples” of Hatchet and TFOne B-127. Obviously, being one of those collector types, he doesn’t offer any comparison with the current Prime Changer version of B...

I’d almost bet they are just going through entire series runs and then cycling to another show.

Everything I’ve seen and read…he’s cut from the same cloth as most modern tech/game CEOs. He started his career in brand management at P&G, then got to play at Microsoft for a bit. Then he got hired at Wizards of the Coast. His actions echo what a LOT of the tech industry are doing to prop up...

Shoot, rent that mother and they’d probably be bringing in more money than they’d EVER make in Georgia Per year. The ultimate passive income!

No, the Pawtucket location (with the Potato Head statue) is primary HQ and has remained open. Hasbro DID close some office space that had been set up in Providence. That’s probably what you’re thinking of.

Good thing he’s looking at moving Hasbro HQ to Boston, then :p

On the Freevee app, I selected my channel/show/feed and below the “watch now” button, they have the next several hours listed out. As far as I can find, NONE of these FAST streaming providers have a full blown, extended schedule for viewing. I’ll also say this: a lot of these guys are jive for...

For Target Circle members: Target is offering 25% off ONE toy or kids book, from 10/20 until 11/16. Stores should be building up for the holidays, so there should be some interesting stuff to use it on.

Minor update: the original GI Joe ARAH series is on the slate for Pluto TV's Kartoon Channel, which has typically shown old DiC shows like the Mario animated series.

Kind of an addition/update to the state of some FAST Streaming Channels: Warner Discovery launched a slate of FAST channels on Roku and Amazon/Freevee. Here's the gist from a Roku announcement, but Amazon appears to have the same stuff...

I've been saying for YEARS the only reason I think GI Joe Classified even got going was because of the hanging "tease" of continued film development. The line seems to have "earned its way"...but it still feels like a brand that's straddling the line between being retained in house, or being...

His departure (after 25 years) makes me think there's been some "streamlining" on the managerial level. Which means somebody still there just inherited Transformers AND GI Joe responsibilities. I can't be too fussed either way, I mean, fan or not, that's how corporate operates these days...

WB has announced that Joker 2 will be released on streaming platforms NEXT WEEK, October 29. After its third weekend, the film has continued to see some impressively precipitous drops, week to week. After the 80+% drop for its second weekend, last weekend saw a near 70% drop off to a measly $2...

They got to squeeze what they can from the streaming FOMO crowd first :p I've seen it vary from film to film. Sometimes it will be day of the physical release, sometimes after. I fully expect this to be on Disney+ by the end of November, in time for the holiday season.

It‘s possible that the MASS Device could end up a “Fan Channel” or Pulse exclusive. For all the over-hyped success many fans are attributing to Classified, it remains fairly niche and a LOT of higher cost items are ending up as de facto online exclusives rather than full retail coverage. Then...
