Your Walmart stocks toys?!

Spin-Out is probably a decent stand in.... https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Spin-Out_(G1)#Generations_Selects I like this little set. I think because I've been doing this so long, these new character concepts are ticklin' my pickle a bit more than another retread of Gears or Warpath or even Cosmos.

He looks solid! There are obvious compromises to get the concept to the $25, but I think they largely succeed. I'm really impressed at the purported accessory load out: 2 blasters, a matrix, and an Energon ax. I'm surprised to see light piping return, but it's a nice gimmick for this kind of...

The nerdgasm if the film DOES gives us this full look for even ONE action sequence... https://www.toyark.com/2024/06/12/deadpool-and-wolverine-hot-toys-wolverine-figure-534446

YAY!!! My ramblings were deemed postable on teh internets! :p

To be fair, Slipstream might actually scale well with other main line stuff like Earthspark and TF One whose seekers DO run in the deluxe range :p I picked up TR Quake because, y'know, when is Hasbro ever going to do Quake again? I'll probably end up getting rid of TR Quake just because this...

It'll be a glass case and his kids will charge for viewings. Because the grift can never end.

And THAT's probably why Hasbro gave Playmates a license to make toys. Their big media plans fizzled and they're passing the franchise off for cheap license dollars until...they do something? It's not entirely unprecedented: Mattel kicked Masters of the Universe to Super7 for about 4 years until...

Newest Retro wave is up! Get Cobra Commander before he sells out! I got my order in for a Retro CC and 88 Storm Shadow.

Slipstream is fine. I wish they'd make the head more angular and retool the wings to better differentiate from Windblade. But here's Quake, a retool from Skullgrin. Both Targetmasters are included, and I dare say that Quake is a DRAMATIC improvement over Skullgrin's lackluster vehicle mode...

Welp, here we are. This past weekend was “Summer Gamefest” a pseudo-replacement for E3 in terms of the new gaming reveals. And Transformers Reactivate was a no-show. While there is still, technically, SDCC and Gamescom for a potential reveal/update…its absence at the the “start” of convention...

Hasbro DID explicitly state that the color was the Pantone provided BY THE STUDIO. I recall from the stream, it was pretty obvious the Transformers guys knew it looked bad, and subtlety called out the studio for the end result. I’m almost inclined to think it’s the result of someone giving...

Jean Grey doesn’t need those Phoenix flames to land a sick burn! https://marvelousnews.com/299-35284

A perfect summation of the current state of mass retail toy collecting.

The newest Hasbro Retro Arcade title has been revealed at the Summer Gamefest: Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind. Designed with a time travel story to let you replay all those classic fights against season 1 monsters. Developed by Digital Eclipse, the game is due later this year...

Watching the Guerrilla Collective stream, focusing on indie games, I've seen a few amusing/interesting things. Keep in mind this is, by NO means, everything shown during the presentation: New Yooka Laylee, poking fun at their lackluster 2017 entry, even. Nightdive is putting out Killing Time...

Democrat bashing and baseless fear mongering?

An interesting note on the alt mode discrepancy… Retail listing leaks from next year indicate a TF One Starscream as a deluxe figure, while Sentinel Prime is listed as a VOYAGER. Both figures are sharing a LOT of design elements, so it might be a situation where Sentinel was caught up in...

Interesting to see BMac among the Joe crew. Can't help but wonder if this is a mix of factors like an increase in his workload after the layoffs or maybe Corporate and Paramount are REALLY serious about getting the crossover movie going. Enough to bring Transformers marketing people over to...
