Not call them a number? :p I mean, you could have a smaller group and call them ”The CoreSpark”, “Knights of Cybertron”, “Guardians of Primus”. Though, I’m not a fan of the apparent NEED by prior brand stewards to associate ANY and ALL conceivable aspects of a Transformer to an originator. I...

So, hey, know how we all thought Fantastic Four wasn’t going to get any kids toys? Turns out…they ARE! Just WAY late for a movie tie in… Official images are going out for a small slate of Epic Heroes products: Marvel’s First Family- A set of what would have likely been the single card Epic...

Yes, basically all of Hasbro’s collector lines are mostly made in China. GI Joe was produced in Vietnam for a couple years, but they ended up shifting back to China at some point. For all the old adages about “cheap Chinese junk”, they ARE the most advanced mass production facilities on the...

According to Jay Cochran of the TNI Network of sites, prices might be going up...again...for now... https://toynewsi.com/278-59623 Prices, briefly, jumped this past spring on the eve of the first round of tariffs, but came down upon the first (of several) "delays" to some of the more extreme...

Me too, Atari CEO Wade Rosen, me too... https://www.notebookcheck.net/Atari-s-CEO-wishes-to-remaster-Panzer-Dragoon-Saga-Ogre-Battle-and-Hideo-Kojima-s-retro-1988-Snatcher.1102619.0.html

It's really their fault for releasing a half ass Crosshairs while doing such a better job with the rest of the "team".

Yeah, Crosshair's vehicle mode stuck me as an all-terrain assult/recon buggy, not an armored truck. I'd be fine with a redo on him.

The Loyal Subjects has opened up preorders to other retailers for their Jem and MASK product lines. Entertainment Earth has MASK stuff coming this month, supposedly. Amazon, meanwhile, is expecting MASK items to become available in December. The "special" RHINO with Scott and T-Bob remains...

Canadian animation icon, Nelvana, is making the social media rounds this past day for the reported closure of the company last Friday, with some employees reporting the abrupt closure occurring last Friday. No official announcement has been made, but it's parent company, Corus Entertainment...

The practicalities of owning the largest Transformers figure ever made

I generally don't fuss too much about the price. Broadly, for a physical cart with the number and/or quality of games typically offered, it's not usually terrible. In THIS case, however, $35-ish for 15 2600 games feels like a push far. But again, I suspect part of it is license cost, part of...

I was right! Evercade just announced an Activision Collection, featuring some of their classic 2600 titles…but only 15 of them. There’s a part of me that recoils at the mere thought of paying over $30 for just 15 Atari 2600 games. But it’s also hard to tell how to interpret this: was...

I really hope kids are watching. For a five minute “hit” of fresh Transformers every week, I’ve been just enamored with this little series. As I’ve said before, the writing is really on point. It’s self aware enough to not be overly serious, but it doesn’t betray itself for the sake of...

I’m not sure the end of de minimis is the problem, itself. It’s the half-cocked, arbitrary, process by which this is all being implemented. The rules for these vast, global, interactions are being changed every few weeks, and international sellers are not going to continue “business as usual”...

And just to clarify, aside from Walmart’s two exclusives (CyberChanger Mirage and Ultimate CyberChanger Megatron), the entire 2025 assortment is now available. Wave 2/3 CyberChangers are available, spotty at retail but readily available from Amazon, and there should be nothing new until the...

'Tis the season, boys and girls! Discount retailers are gearing up for Christmas so leftovers are starting to filter in. Some things I found today: Ross- Legacy United Core Class, $2.99 (Adam16bit reported finding Cheetor, I just found Energon Galvatron), Legacy United Deluxe $7.99 (Animated...

Roger Corman "classic" Deathstalker apparently got remade. Originally made in the early 80s to cash in on the success of Conan The Barbarian, the film was a hit (based on its minuscule budget) and would spawn THREE additional films, with the last being released in 1991. Proving no property is...

Nothing at Walmart, but then again, my Walmart still has "clearance" plastered over half the aisle, so they probably haven't reset. And my not until after Labor Day (clear out the old stuff).

90s video game stalwart, Acclaim, is apparently being relaunched. News came a while back that a number of investors (including pro-wrestler Jeff Jarrett) had invested to lay ownership of the Acclaim name...but the status of its properties is less clear. In the 20 years since Acclaim's...
