That retro-flavored deluxe seemed to come first. Judging from the Beast Alliance toys and what I’ve seen of the promo material and studio series, it seems the beast modes were finalized fairly early, but the robot modes seemed to go through some additional revisions. I get the feeling that the...

Still waiting for the amazing Powermaster Prime redo this team is capable of at this price point.

I feel like this is going to be hard to get: Savage Eternia Moss Man. I can only find him for sale on the international Mattel Shop site, alongside the Savage Eternia Skeletor (new design)...

To be fair, trying to judge sales on kids lines is a bit tricky these days. Companies really aren’t promoting them, and by nature, have a slower cycle than we’re used to in collector centric lines. My observations were that they were, seemingly, solid sellers. New characters were seemingly...

One of the early images for Armada Prime DID show his wrist stacks are removable, but share the standard plug size. The stacks could be mounted to the butt plate, leaving other attachments to be put on the wrist ports.

Also saw the Masterverse NA He-Man last week. Didn’t realize it was a timed Target exclusive, I think? Website says exclusive, but it could also be a timed deal as well. Either way, as much as I love NA…the figure just didn’t click with me. This was a time where they seemed accurate to a...

Makes me wonder which end called it: Was it Netflix, unhappy with viewing numbers? Or was it Mattel, unsatisfied with the toy sales? I’m inclined to put this on Netflix, given the sheer amount of product that seems on the docket for release. You don’t release a $100 play set when your show is...

More pictures are out of Armada Prime. It’s like, my wallet says no, my brain says “wait for repaint”…but I’ll be dipped if it doesn’t look gorgeous. https://news.tfw2005.com/2023/02/25/even-more-legacy-evolution-commander-armada-optimus-prime-in-hand-images-476378 Worth noting the image...

Guess that explains the mass clearance of the Netflix series toys, then!

Eh, I'm just here for Dinoking to go with all the Japanese series call backs Hasbro's doing. A $75 Selects Dinoking is far more palatable than a $200+ "classical sized Dinoking" some here want. I'll wait for better images, but Armada Prime is doing what I expect from a Legacy release. I like...

Grimlock sure looks pretty. But…this deco doesn’t have any impact to me. Certainly can’t afford to drop the $60+ on it at the current time. Not with new movie stuff rolling out.

Good thing Target is still pricing SS Core at $8.50. Rumble is small enough that it doesn’t feel like a total rip, but I might be a bit salty if I was paying Hasbro’s 11.99 MSRP on it.

It was fine. But it seemed to suffer from what a LOT of recent Marvel films are suffering from: the need to “connect” to a larger plot. We’re going to be dealing with Kang for YEARS, so it felt like film was trying too hard to build him up instead of focusing on the family dynamic of the...

That was the best Micronauts film we could have gotten!

My SS Cheetor should be here this week, so I guess I'll be the one to snap a couple pics with Beast Machines Cheetor (though, mine IS a bit dusty..)

Yep, “splicensing” as Adam Pawlus (Adam16bit here) has referred to it. Same reason you’re seeing Ninja Turtles from Super7 (toy-inspired Ultimates, Reaction), NECA (media reference “Ultimates”), BST Action, Playmates (retro toys), and, now, McFarlane (Mutant Mayhem kids toys). In terms of...

Haven’t seen anything yet, but it SOUNDS like a Loki Season 2 preview, ie, footage from Loki not a specific post-credits scene.

And don't forget the second wave of Dicelings! https://www.entertainmentearth.com/product/dungeons-dragons-dicelings-figure-wave-2-case-of-6/hsf5118b Owlbear is carried over, Beholder and Dragon appear to be repaints and they add a displacer to the offerings.

Bad news, the GI Joe Fanstream and preorders were pushed back to March 8. But I finally got around to watching the “Extended Action Cut” of the film, now on Amazon Prime. It was good! I mean, it’s still GI Joe Retaliation, but they added something like 12 minutes. But it wasn’t just some...
