Hasbro is currently facing a class action lawsuit by the West Palm Beach Firefighters' Pension Fund, over allegations that the company has been misleading investors regarding the quality of its inventory. If any of that sounds confusing, I'll try to break down the alleged chain of events here...

I read the complaint. This will either quietly settle out of court and you'll never hear about it again, or it'll be dismissed. There's no case here. ... And? Can anybody think of any movies that underperformed in 2022 and 2023? Any movies at all? Plaintiffs seem to envision toys as just a...

But then how's Amber going to do things with her magic?

I'm not the biggest fan of the Heisei films. They're often thoroughly silly, which is fine, but they're in denial about it. Pick a lane. Be a the serious reboot or not. I kinda like Godzilla vs King Ghidorah though. The time travel plot does mostly make sense, and the running android is one of...

There's a chance. Simpler, lower budget games are all they can really afford to do right now, and also all I would actually want.

I'm aware of 4-packs and single carded releases, but not 2-packs. I had a few. Mystery Big Lots robots were my favorite toys before I got my hands on real Transformers.

It's getting to be a very crowded boat. Most of the industry ought to be rethinking the money they've been spending on movies.

I still have some Trendmasters stuff. I think I have most of the 4 inch line. Somehow their proportions and details were better than the larger toys.

The comics never showed Static learning about Night Cap's work, so it's time to explore the issue. Why is he so tired during the day?

We're just not used to this routine anymore because their Hollywood dream lasted an unusually long time. But, financially it really didn't last that much longer than their usual ventures. They just took longer than usual to give up, because those initial returns were so surprisingly good.

I recognize that mantis in the upper left corner. Below Manterror. It's one of those Fighting Insect / Winged-Bots things that used to be all over Big Lots.

This is why I'm not so pessimistic about this doom spiral Hasbro seems to be in. They're always lurching from one grandiose dream to the next. We're just between dreams right now. They're going to come back with an idea so crazy that it actually works for a while. They always do.

Apparently I'm bad at pattern recognition, because I did not notice that. I may be underestimating this show. I'm actually tempted to go back and watch the compilations to see how much I'm missing.

This makes sense to me. Hasbro owns so much, and has owned so much at one time or another, that I doubt it's feasible to keep track of it all.

Pistols used to be an officer's weapon. The higher the rank, the smaller the gun. It signals "This is all I need." This toy suggests Kup was an absolute beast back his day, and these kids with their blaster rifles and fusion cannons got nothin on what he knows how to do with just those pea...

I was going to do some more scenes of Night Cap being asleep at work, but I want to get on with other plans. Maybe someday.

I want to live in the timeline where they picked Option A and TYT got all the seasons.

Timely holiday episode? This really does want to be TYT. What I'm really wondering is why you keep going back to the "I bet you're wondering" openings. Switch over to the static crackle opening already. I'm liking when episodes do that. Cocoa is Canadian? I haven't worked food service so I do...

I won at Doordash. After the delivery fee, service fee, we're just making this up now fee, tax, discount, and a decent tip, my final total was less than the subtotal.

I don't like Movie Bumblebee's face either, but I'm not sure a normal Movie face would have been more appealing. Somehow I think Megatron ended up with the most normal Transformer looking head in the whole series, and we almost didn't get that.
