  1. Playstation Thread.

    I found out something interesting, as I prepare to commit to a PS5 (what can I say, they got good franchises and games): While you can no longer view them, Sony still has the record of any purchases you made for PS One and PSP titles you made in the past. Should said title be made available...
  2. The new Transformers Deal Thread

    Best Buy has started to restock toys for the holiday season, and one of the items offered during the current Black Friday specials is Selects Black Zarak, marked down to $107 (from $177 normal). They are also stocking Generations Magnificus, Legacy TM2 Megatron, Lio Prime, Animated Prowl and...
  3. Transformers Legacy toyline

    On that note, I was going to mention that last year, Walmart was rather aggressive in clearing out those sales specials. The DC Superheroes pack started at $20 and plummeted to $5 within a week and a half. About the only sets I might consider at full price are Knockout/WildRider and...
  4. The new Transformers Deal Thread

    Might as well post it here as well, but Walmart’s Black Friday special this year will be “2 for 1” bundles of overstock Deluxe figures. All hail from early to mid 2022 across Legacy and Studio Series. I’d also caution on online ordering…despite the images, it wouldn’t surprise me if there are...
  5. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Tired of old Wave 1 Legacy figures still lagging at retail? Too bad, because one of Walmart’s big specials for the holiday season appears to be a “2 for 1” deal where you can get a bundle of two Deluxe figures for the price of 1. From the images found by JtPrime (and others), it appears the...
  6. Studio Series discussion

    So…Walmart has some overstock for their Black Friday special, it appears. It appears to be “2 for 1” Deluxe figure bundles, with two Deluxe figures for $25. From the images posted by JtPrime, it appears to be mixes from waves 13 and 15-17 (no figures from wave 14, from the available images)...
  7. Transformers: Reactivate (console MMO)

    The original listings we had were for a Starscream/Bumblebee two pack (which we saw the original version of) and a Soundwave/Optimus Prime two pack, of which we’ve only seen Prime as of yet. My inclination remains that, aside from some packaging changes, Hasbro’s release plan for the figures...
  8. A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    Another element is how little turnaround the sequel films had. Even with the prequels, you had a good 3 years between each film to allow each film to "breathe", to take a step back and reflect. I firmly believe that Revenge of the Sith ended up as good as it did because they had the time to...
  9. Transformers: Reactivate (console MMO)

    Ractivate Optimus Prime’s toy has leaked, with full in hand photos. Looks like they reused a a LOT of Siege design work, but it still works VERY well. I like a lot of the elements here, it’s a nice mix of G1, Authentics with a splash of the current movie styling. He’s also surprisingly beefy...

    Eh, I just think that’s a little on the nose. Even with the standards of this franchise
  11. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Hasbro’s been a little looser when it comes to size vs complexity. Remember we got a Deluxe sized Hot Rod in the Voyager price point due to complexity and accessories. Given Big Convoy’s bulk, Hasbro could well go back to the “smaller leader with extra junk” angle we saw with Coronation...
  12. Studio Series discussion

    Yeah. I’d have much rather seen them put the time and energies into a better design than put in accessories just for the sake of emulating a visual gimmick the game employed. Actual images do NOTHING to improve my opinion of the sub Line. Starscream has the same “flat appendage” issue...
  13. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    I’ve always been open to both styles. Each has their own “identity angle” when it comes to Mario. But I REALLY lost love for the New Super Mario games. The newest iteration actively frustrated me on controls. NSMB just feels so…floaty. Jumping felt off, and I never seemed to have full...
  14. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    But when will Big Lob finally make his move?!
  15. Transformers Legacy toyline

    I work with new nurses young enough to be MY DAUGHTER. THAT will mess with your head a bit. In regards to Magmatron: On the whole, I think the new figure provides enough to be a justifiable improvement over the original. I think my biggest issue is the same one I had with Silverbolt: In...
  16. Studio Series discussion

    I can’t help feeling like if Gamer Edition toys aren’t seeing the same issue as the Legacy Targetmasters: The base figures suffer for the sake of the included accessories. In the Targetmasters’ case, the compromise feels justified with the end of the Battlemaster assortment. Those transforming...
  17. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    I was all set to play Mario Wonder…except FedEx apparently has wonky routes. Seriously, from where my Best Buy shipment started, it actually went STRAIGHT PASS ME to a distribution center FARTHER FROM ME THAN FROM WHERE IT STARTED. I won’t be getting the game until later today (Saturday) and...
  18. Transformers: Reactivate (console MMO)

    Hasbro had an official statement through their PR channels: Sounds like Hasbro didn't update something or TRU Canada was too early in posting details and didn't have an updated image reflected the new game branding. I don't hate what I see. I really like Bumblebee, as ZacWiliam said, the...

    World of Warcraft is compatible with Apple Silicon, it was actually one of the first games to get a native version.
