  1. Transformers Legacy toyline

    I mean, yeah, if you looked at the case assortment. Her refresh was also in last year's big retail listing, as well. I'm waiting on a deal for the Evolution package, myself. G2 Megatron wasn't the Siege mold, it was the Earthrise mold, Combat Hero was the Siege mold :p New images of the...
  2. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Oh, yeah. Outside from a few instances in the comic, it has been EXCEPTIONALLY rare to see a “Hot Rod -> Rodimus Prime” matrix upgrade get portrayed by Optimus Prime, much less in toy format. That’s even before getting into just how impressive the retool itself is. The gray “core” bits is...
  3. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    This ruling feels both extremely vague and extremely specific at the same time. “Official Duties” , in conjunction with the generally vague “on paper” details, definitely gives an undue amount of “insulation” from consequence. On the other hand, by that same token, it DOES clarify that...
  4. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    DUUUUUDE. All we need are Scoop and v2 Stalker to “check off” most of the ODF key cast that aren’t core characters that get remade all the time.

    And it’s nice to see the Joe team continue to actually acknowledge the cartoon (and especially movie) in a meaningful way after so many decades of the Hama comic being held as the holy scripture for the brand. And wacky snake man is just more interesting than “Optimus Prime repaint in grey”.
  6. Deadpool 3!!

    They FINALLY gave him a line! That said…I’ll say I like Liev Schrieber’s interpretation better, but I see why they went in this direction.
  7. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    Hiya does some good stuff (and I still think it’s fascinating to see some of these “pre-fan complaints” Classified decos)…but I think I’ll stick with the nostalgia needle that is Super7’s ReAction+. I fully expect Dusty to be an offering within the first year- between cartoon, comic and Tiger...
  8. Transformers Legacy toyline

    How long do you think Hasbro’s going to keep make G1-flavored Megatrons?
  9. Transformers Legacy toyline

    New SDCC set revealed, being promoted under the United banner- Fractured Friendship: Gladiator Megatron vs Security Officer Orion Pax https://news.tfw2005.com/2024/06/27/sdcc-2024-transformers-fractured-friendship-2-pack-514215 Gladiator Megatron is a retool/repaint Miner Megatron (itself...
  10. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    1. Granted, but it feels like Nintendo has already pushed back an update/revision/new iteration of the hardware for some time now. I legit feel that the OLED update was supposed to be part of a broader update that got scrapped due to continued strong sales and issues related to the pandemic...
  11. Batman: Caped Crusader coming August 1

    The first trailer is out. LOVE the pulpy feel they got going on. It really does feel a bit like what Bruce Timm and the like would have LIKED to have done with Batman back in the 90s.
  12. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    Nintendo has always “done their own thing”, especially post-GameCube. That said, I think it is becoming increasingly noticeable that developers are hitting the limits of the hardware, making already lower power hardware look even weaker. There have even been a number of recent Nintendo titles...
  13. Studio Series discussion

    Because they didn't sell. It's been implied that was the reason the Core class was developed- to offer a small Transformers offering in the $10-13 range
  14. The Original Gobots returning to TV

    Challenge of the Gobots will premiere on MeTV Toons THIS SATURDAY! ....At very early in the morning https://www.metvtoons.com/shows/challenge-of-the-gobots Also, here's the full the catalog of active shows on the schedule. One of the low-key additions seems to be a number of Gerry Anderson's...
  15. Transformers Legacy toyline

    The “G1 Crew” set and the Gobots 3 pack are marketed under Generations Selects. I just kind of get the feeling that Selects got a bit backburnered by the sheer volume of retails slots Hasbro’s been trying to fill, between stuff like the Walmart and Amazon capsule lines and Target’s Buzzworthy...
  16. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    I would be willing to call that a “context issue” rather than an overt play to appease Trump. He did NOT, in fact, say “White Supremecists/Neo Nazis are very fine people”. He used the term for BOTH sides of the protest (Which, by virtue of one side BEING predominantly of that group, lead to...
  17. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    LAST I HEARD it was said these would be retailing for the same as other ReAction figures (so, $20). My cynical side is saying closer to $25. I view them tolerable at $25, a solid value at $20 given the current state of retail (the closest analogy to Reaction+ would be Vintage Collection, which...
  18. Transformers: EarthSpark

    Also, I wonder if this has any bearing… https://iatse.net/workers-at-icon-creative-studio-are-fighting-for-union-representation/ Note: It appears that Icon DID complete unionization efforts a couple weeks ago.
  19. Transformers: EarthSpark

    Yeah, when you have, effectively, THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION STAFF of a show replaced, that is a HUGE red flag. Given how many of the creative staff were industry veterans (many of the Transformers franchise itself), I can’t help but point to someone at Nick/Paramount being the issue, but given...
  20. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    The first offerings of Super7’s O-ring line, dubbed “Reaction+”, has been revealed with prototype images from The Full Force podcast. I’m linking to the Hisstank thread featuring mirror images for those who don’t want to go to X...
