  1. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    I'm not sure it would help, though I am not a tariff expert, I think the fact that the products are still made in China makes it so the tariff would apply even if you get it from a third party. If I'm wrong, GREAT! But if not, this is actually why the 'modern' versions of smuggling...
  2. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    On a strange note, I made this 17 years ago, and I haven't had to update it for any news event since:
  3. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    That's...odd. I am not a gamer and didn't even understand some of the acronyms, but if Hasbro wants to transition to a game company, doesn't it work against the goal to cancel the games leveraging their own IP? And if that wasn't the concept, never mind. Like I said, not a gamer, I may have...

    "I think we should have a tariff on tar, if the tar tariffs for countries exporting tar are higher than the tar tariffs on ones if importing it. I call it, " The Tariff on Tar, If..." "Are you being sarcastic?" "No, I'm just reading this press release..."
  5. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    That's a huge part of this problem, there's been no warning or regularity on when tariffs change, so there's no way to be sure what they will be on item arrival till it happens. For electronics from China it literally went from 25% to 125% to exempt in a week. And individuals aren't exempt, you...

    "BECAUSE I'M-" "Batman, yes, we know..." "No, it's because I'm riding an alien robot dinosaur...what does being Batman have to do with it...?"
  7. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    I do think the most telling (and so far, absent) analysis would come from HasbroPulse itself, as it's their own storefront, and they'd have the most control over pricing there. I'm also closely watching Mattel Creations, for the same reason. Optimus Prime: "And this time, no force in the...

    That's the sequel series. Kup collapses flat on his face, twitches a couple times, and never moves again. Also, to be relatable for the average man on the street.
  9. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    I'm thinking I will make an entire comic series entitled "Kup screaming into the abyss.". It will run 500 issues and all panels will be the same picture of Kup screaming. I want my art to be relatable for the average man on the street.

    And if he sees Unicron in Planet Mode in the sky, he becomes a dancing fool. "There's the ball, as foretold in the prophecies of the Disco Inferno!"

    Frymasters hide their cholesterol inside? And that's a GREAT connector... Just a warning for everyone, don't wait too long or you'll have to start making deals...

    That Bumblebee looks like a still from a movie in a parallel universe where James Bond was German. Not sure of this belongs here or in the "Uh-Oh" thread...?

    Please leave discussions on macroeconomics and high level political discourse out of this. You KNOW Galvatron has trouble following the arguments...
  14. MotU Origins X Thundercats

    I think Lion-O and Mumm-ra are winners, though I wish they'd given Cheetara full replacement boots rather than just partial lower legs, the MOTU boot bottoms stick out with her show-look. I love the reversible Sword of Omens, but is Lion-O's hand totally replaced BY the claw shield? Fisto...

    ALSO a chicken! They've quietly infiltrated ALL our dinosaur taxonomy, now they're relatives of Cybetronian city-bots, and soon they'll be cousins to the Japanese Kaiju genera as well. Chickens are a lot better organized when it comes to political marriages than we ever gave them credit and...
  16. Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    I did actually get my Big O as a Moderoid kit, as it was the most cost effective option, but it also made me realize, as the first one I'd done in YEARS, how much extra it takes to do a GOOD job. The sprue cutters, special paints, glues, etc, all add up. So even self assembly has limited cost...

    Upstanding citizen? I'm still amazed I haven't been kicked off just for the dumb comic ideas. But he's probably just googling those questions Titans spend a lot of time wondering about. Like "What are ceilings like?" and "Are chairs nice?"
