How is Blistex the biggest name in lip balm if I've literally never heard of it before this post? I'm pretty sure the biggest name in lip balm is, y'know, ChapStick considering that ChapStick is the brand name that's become genericized and everything.

I really do feel like y'all are being too harsh on the literal $12 toys that are a few inches tall that have to do all of that jive tbh.

There's a huge difference between 'using a character name in a comic book' and 'using and registering a character name as a trademark for a toy'.

interacting with other autistics really helps my imposter syndrome

Agoraphobia. (Probably not but that is something that happens)

Twitter at least has usage beyond old people these days.

Guarantee you that with anything Transformers that the fandom generally dislikes, there's easily tons more casual fans who love it.

Those nearly $200 figures of Optimus and Megatron in the style of the Stege cartoon. ************ the Stege cartoon literally used the CAD models of the toys as the basis for the character models, you don't need to shell out $400 to get show-accurate figures of Prime and Megatron, just get the...

The existence of MP Lio Convoy is so funny when you learn he came third from last place in the fuckin Masterpiece poll Takara held that led to them releasing MP Star Saber. You could have literally done a Masterpiece of any of the guys who had higher results than him but lost the poll to Star...

Takara released this and then the entire Beast Wars MP line fuckin died.

It depends. There's still plenty of the shitty quality dollar-store and Big Lots quality KOs and also plenty of the 'just as good/sometimes arguably better quality than the official' KOs. The key difference is you usually have to order the higher quality KOs online.

At this point one of the leaks could be like 'Deluxe Class Legacy Under-3' and we'd all be like 'Yeah OK cool.'

I'm pretty sure that's just one of those generic Chinese combining robot toys. Like if you look up 'transformer construction vehicle' on Amazon, you'll find multiple different versions of those same molds being sold by different sellers. Probably does have an 'original' version somewhere but...

I will say the model work in TATMR is great at the very least. Film itself, I mean I like it but I grew up with it but can acknowledge its flaws. Helps that I view it as its own continuity separate from the actual show.

are you just me cuz same tbh (minus the trading a rodimus titan master for her, i just bought the god ginrai lg-ex set cuz i wanted god ginrai too lmao)

Got Core Slug and Sludge today. They're pretty good. Not as good as the other Core-class figures I got but considering the combiner gimmick, I can forgive the limited articulation and kibble.
