  1. Transformers Legacy toyline

    And teal skeletons! Except, they're now the Vok! Great nod, there! From here and what is being done with many of the new Target stuff (like Blaster), it feels like there was some pushback from retail partners about the unique packaging. Maybe the unique packaging was dropped so that...
  2. Transformers Legacy toyline

    I wonder if that wasn’t “the plan” at one point. The leaked listings for 2025 reportedly feature a Voyager iteration of Armada Red Alert. So, maybe, Hasbro had done up Cannonball/red Alert as an option until they decided to do a full Voyager for him? Then again, we’ve gotten BOTH an “Armada...
  3. Transformers Legacy toyline

    The Star Raiders will be a Walmart exclusive offering, like the Velocitron or Toxitron “micro lines”. So…how hard have THEY been? For me? Aside from a stray Road Rocket, they haven’t carried anything since the Velocitron capsule, and I don’t have hopes here (my local store has gotten VERY...

    Cybertron Starscream just looks better and better with the in hand images. LOVE all the ports he's got for extensions. The Star Raiders are fine, in general. I really need to see what changes are done to Thundertron. Cannonball is fine, I guess. Yet another Skids retool, I'm not sure of any...
  5. Warner Discovery shuttering Rooster Teeth

    News has come that that WB/Discovery has opted to shutter Machinima pioneer, Rooster Teeth. Famous for Red vs Blue and RWBY, Rooster Teeth reportedly has been operating at a loss for years. Red vs Blue is doing its final season this year, but WB is looking to sell off assets like that show and...

    Spin Masters has a Batman 89 Batwing and figure set on tap for later this year. But also a Batman Returns 4" figure! I've been wanting an accurate BR Batman for DECADES! https://toynewsi.com/292-51899
  7. Transformers Legacy toyline

    I was wondering how soon Silverbolt's wave mate was going to show up. I always liked the Cybertron design for Starscream (big WWI fan as well), but I never got one due to the Supreme size. And the Voyager wasn't easily available at a price point I was comfortable with (oh, how times have...

    I still think that a G1 Knockout, retooled from Tow-Line, would have been a FAR more interesting choice than Breakdown, even if he didn’t have the Mayhem attachment.
  9. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    I mean, there’s not much to say. Hasbro’s Joe team is consistently putting out damn good product, especially now that Retro is regular “supplement” to the main line, allowing for a bit more freedom in reinterpretation. All the figures looked fantastic, and my biggest concern continues to be...
  10. Transformers Legacy toyline

    A note from the original listings: The original listings indicated THREE sets, with last being Bludgeon and Ruckus. I wonder if the softer sales on some of their prior exclusives lead to Amazon pulling back to two sets, instead of three. If so, that might have been why we got Bludgeon in the...
  11. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    The Tiger Force set is already sold out at 1212 CST It's a Target item, so I'm not overly worried...but it's not doing my Premium membership any favors when the big reason I have it is for exclusives.
  12. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    The Special Counsel petitioned the Supreme Court to take up the issue several weeks ago, before the lower court ruling (because, obviously, this issue would end up before them anyway). The SC passed then, but OBVIOUSLY took it up when Trump threw his hissy fit. The Constitution, and subsequent...
  13. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Even if the Supreme Court decides immunity in Trump's favor...it's not going to really affect his obligations to his civil penalties. Not that he and his cronies aren't going to try any BS they can think of, but immunity from prosecution for Jan 6 won't shield him from the millions in civil...
  14. Ninja Turtles - Cowabunga!

    GameMill, in conjunction with Raw Thrills and Cradle Games, will be releasing a port of the 2017 TMNT Wrath of the Mutants arcade brawler. Due April 23 on pretty much all current consoles and PC
  15. Transformers Legacy toyline

    But the info read as “Knockout”, not “Knock Out” :p And given the nature of the various capsule exclusives…I’m inclined to give the nod to an update to the G1 Micromaster
  16. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Actually, the G1 Knockout was part of a Micromaster combiner turning into a truck mounted backhoe. Which didn’t look too dissimilar to a tow truck. I think he’ll be a retool of the Tow-Line tooling.
  17. Transformers Legacy toyline

    They might just not be posted yet. Core has always seemed to on the “lower tier”, and I think it only exists, largely, to have something less than $25 for that “pillar” of the brand. That, and Hasbro’s decision to refocus on “major characters, cheap“ seems to reflect on fewer new figures, but...
  18. Physical Media Thread

    A relevant update! With Disney, seemingly, winding down its physical media production, and places like Best Buy drastically cutting or outright removing retail space, Sony has stepped up! Disney has signed a deal to allow Sony to take over their physical media business. This coincides with the...

    The only Galvatrons I got were the Tron version and the toy colors. I'd be game for a new iteration closer to the animation model with appropriate colors.
