  1. Ollies Bargin Outlet..anything good?

    They're an outlet store, so the stuff will be varied. You can check their online ad...but that's usually reserved for significant buys. I know the last time I went (a LONG time ago) the ad featured Avalon Hill games, but I also came across a couple cases of Earthrise Micromasters for, like...
  2. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    1 and 4 are my picks, because I don't think he is smart or clever enough to do 2 or 3 without involving more people than able to keep such an act secret. There's also the old standby of "he just grabbed jive and didn't know what he took". After all, people had to restore shredded documents he...
  3. What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Cal Jillson needs to pull his head out of his ass. A democrat daring to show he has balls by cursing in public? Compared to what's pass for Texas policy these days, there are FAR more significant issue that old man should be worried about. Bullshit, embracing the contrarian culture of...
  4. Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    Youtube banned Infowars FOUR YEARS AGO! The hug did you think was going to happen by hosting Infowars content?
  5. Transformers: EarthSpark

    Now, don't forget we got some decent toys, too! Energon Rodimus is still an all time favorite of mine, the Starscreams are nice, and it took Hasbro SIXTEEN FREAKIN' YEARS to make a Galvatron that was better than the Energon version.
  6. Velocitron Speedia 500 Collection - Transformers: Legacy subline at Walmart

    Saucer boi acquired! As I suspected, deluxe and voyager figures...no space for Leader. So, keep an eye out. My Walmart is still in middle of doing the reset and putting junk out. Also, I get the feeling the Speedia set is a test run for some sort of vintage Transformers packaging thing in...
  7. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Which is likely a throwback to when the big leak indicated that Velocitron Blurr was seemingly intended to be a remold of Blanker into Armada Blurr Instead of the SS retool we ended up getting. Now that people have seen Pointblank, it’s like “yeah, I could see them getting an Armada Blurr...
  8. Prey (Predator 5) - streaming on Hulu

    Fair enough, fair enough. That said, I think the powers that be HAVE noticed the positive reception because I’ve seen an uptick in ads for the film in my YouTube algorithm. Certainly a LOT more than I saw leading up to the release of the film.
  9. Transformers Legacy toyline

    No, it was on “the big leak” from last year. When the leakers revealed 2022’s product line up, the information provided AT THAT TIME was that Pointblank was going to be remolded into Armada Blurr. Override and Cosmos were intended to be retools of SS Hot rod and Origins BB, which Hasbro...
  10. Transformers Legacy toyline

    From all the material Mark has shared...I'm not sure I believe that. Now, that doesn't mean other factors haven't come into play...but they've done some crazy ass remolding and have been pretty damn "loose" in their reinterpretation of non-G1 characters. I stand by my earlier comment!
  11. Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    I’m all for a reasonable debate, but I’m not seeing a solid foundation on this subject. Alex Jones has spent YEARS spreading…his views? His perception of news? Misinformation? Lies? Whatever you wish to call it, it wasn’t “news”. It wasn’t information, and more than a little of it was lies or...
  12. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Yeah, I could TOTALLY buy an Armada Blurr retool from him. I kind of wonder if the issues that resulted in Blaster and Hot Rod rolled forward (and deluxe wave 4 being split in two) didn’t impact the Velocitron line. Maybe there’s some weird contract stipulation with Walmart that prompted...

    I saw them give him a bottle of water and graciously accepted the handshakes he offered. I saw no embrace.
  14. Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    Alex Jones only issued an apology when faced with legal action, and I can't find any information he did so on his show. It doesn't change the fact he spent YEARS spreading the falsehood about the Sandy Hook shooting. It doesn't change that victims and families where suffering harassment right...
  15. Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    What debate? What "other side"? Jones got hit with a multimillion dollar lawsuit (and lost) because he propagated the LIE that Sandy Hook was a fake event, staged to fuel gun control legislation. Anyone from Sandy Hook who went public got labeled (by Jones and his sycophants) as actors lying...
  16. Worst business decisions ever.

    Even so, Nintendo could have backed out of the contract more...TACTFULLY...than waiting until Sony announced the SFC/SNES expansion and THEN announce the Phillips partnership. Hell, you could write a whole BOOK about how Japanese hubris resulted in bad business decisions, especially in gaming...
  17. Prey (Predator 5) - streaming on Hulu

    This was good. Like, not even good by franchise standards, but a legit GOOD MOVIE. The cast was great, and Amber Midthunder turned in what SHOULD be a star making turn. The film nailed the peculiar contrast that made the original so memorable: it started largely as a period piece with native...
  18. Transformers Legacy toyline

    We have enough F1 vehicles to get an Energon (because the extent of retooling has become INSANE) or Machine Wars version. But yeah, I'm not overly excited at the potential for a "slightly different/improved" rerun for the Amazon Prowl. Besides, a REALLY nice G1 Prowl would be a solid fit for...
  19. Pixar’s Starcom toys aka Lightyear toys

    To be fair, I saw a LOT more of the other XLs than I really expected. I was certain some would have been just concept stuff that would end up cut, but most of them DID actually appear, with the retro XL-09 being the least seen of those outside the 1 and 15.
