I was staunchly against smartphones until I got an ipad and realized having an internet device was super handy for my daily bus commute; after a nearly botched meetup with my step-brother, I decided to just get the damn smartphone and wouldn't you know it, I now use that thing constantly...
I spend most of time at home either on my desktop or on my couch, where my Steamdeck is docked into my TV, running desktop mode. There isn't really anywhere in my apartment that I'd want to view the forum and don't have access to a desktop, aside from like my bed.
Meanwhile in the Marvel G1 comics:
There was the time he killed himself because he cheated at a videogame, only to be resurrected because a nerd saved his mind to a floppy disk.
And then died fighting Unicron, only to be resurrected by the Last Autobot.
And then he died again being eaten...
Windows 10 Desktop and a Steam Deck in desktop mode when I'm at home (Depending on which room I'm in) as well as on occasion an Android Galaxy S9 phone. When I'm not at home, it's all phone, baby.
And I just use Google Chrome for everything. I probably shouldn't though.
I feel like that's a larger problem with the world's economy in general. A lot of industries boomed during the pandemic. For instance, people went out less, had more money and got into all sorts of hobbies like breadmaking or, you know, collecting action figures.
Now that businesses and...
Leadership at Hasbro is just trying to maximize profits and doesn't seem to care about the conseuqences until they're slapped in the face with them (see also: the OGL situation with D&D)
Cutting out the plastic in packaging probably saved them a few cents per toy, which over millions of toys is...
Beachcomber cleans up nice... I wasn't going to get him but I might now. The bird is ridiculous.
Devcon looks extremely good for being a Blurr retool. Hadn't planned on getting him either, but I kinda want to now.
Alexgrease looks pretty good all things considered, but I'm a little bummed...
Legacy Jhiaxus would have been mine. If he had been a retool or something sure, but the fact that we got a new G2 accurate (mostly) mold for Jhiaxus is nuts.
Actually, you know what the weirdest thing about modern Transformers? That's there's an entire thriving market for unlicensed...
The time between when the '86 movie came out and when it was set is around 19 years.
The time between when it was set and now is around 18 years.
Tick tock.
Speculation is that its Legacy Arcee and '86 Kup for the retools, which... that won't stop me from buying this, but man does that sap a lot of my enthusiasm. Already have Legacy Arcee, Flame War and Orion Pax, so I've had my fill of those molds.
Well, this came out of nowhere. Ariel and Dion War Dawn 2-pack.

I had an elita-1 get canceled on me (Netflix version) but I got lucky and it came back in stock.. though the Legacy one is better, admittedly. I even got Cosmos and Galaxy Shuttle successfully.
But I seem to be on the luckier end of that spectrum.
