Yeah, the nice thing here is that the humor is being derived from the characters and situation, and not just there for a cheap pop. I think it really says a lot of the production team that, for just 5 minutes, they DO cram a good bit of well designed action and some solid dialogue Into each...

Don’t you go playing with my emotions like that… Some images from the case, most of Studio Series looks to be prototypes, but Age of the Primes look pretty far along...

It was joked about finding a new name for MASK’s antagonists, and one hit me the other night (a legacy name use from Kenner’s MegaForce): VROC- Villainous Regime Opposing Command I know they were, ostensively, the “good guys” in the MegaForce line (by virtue of the TRIAX sporting more Soviet...

I’m kind of kicking myself for not getting a ReAction+ Cobra Commander. Hopefully, they have another flavor on tap (I’m hoping for a “hooded CC” deco with gold or red faceplate, myself). But, Super7 DID have their SDCC items up for order, so I went ahead and snagged DiC Serpentor and a OaM...

New stuff today, here’s the overview of the panel: https://toynewsi.com/278-59133 And post-panel case images: https://news.hisstank.com/2025/07/25/sdcc-2025-g-i-joe-classified-hasbro-booth-images-friday-post-panel-92104 Highlights for me: Desert Scorpion is huge win for me. I’ve loved how the...

Big Convoy looks GLORIOUS. I think, as a whole, the first wave of 2026 has a nice robust “flavor” to it. I think the Combaticons having more unique designs helps the slate not look so samey. I’m bemused to see Junkions return, but Jolopy looks nice and they hit Wreck Gar out of the park. Of...

I’m eager to see how Nemesis Prime turns out (I still prefer the “Shadow Spark” naming, myself). Liked the original, but the light grey kind of got details washed out. The darker colors (at least in the renders) have a solid pop. I’m game for new Thundercracker, but we’ll see how good it is...

Masters of the Universe has a collab coming with Transformers, where MOTU characters are wearing the skins of Transformers! https://news.tfw2005.com/2025/07/25/masters-of-the-universe-x-transformers-megatron-armor-skeletor-bumblebee-armor-man-at-arms-first-look-543385 I’ll again say…the grid...

I love the Joe team. Every one else doing these presentations feel all buttoned up because there is so much pressure on the sales of their brands, and over here is the Joe team just doing their own thing.

I, unironically, want to see something derived from the Costco exclusive deco.

No one has been clear on this, from what I can find. My presumption is that, because Hasbro owns the IP and marks, TLS can only use marks Hasbro has access to. And because Hasbro is the holder for the IP, TLS can’t “bypass them” to try and get trademarks. So, Hasbro doesn’t have access (for...

Press materials went out for the Hot Wheels Collabs: Preorders on Saturday, 5pm EST, Each will retail for $30. Frankly, the “premium” is pretty dang modest here. 5” is a bit on the short side for a deluxe, but a $5 premium over Generations Deluxe is practically a steal these days. I think...

Hong Kong has an event going on this weekend and Flame Toys is showing off stuff like their Furai model kits and… BLACKARACHNIA TOTALLY HAS NIPPLES!

Panel images, as detailed above https://www.instagram.com/toyhabitswebsite/p/DMg4_NJxmSD/?img_index=1 Given the premium pricing on the RHINO, I‘m probably not game for any. Though, if the Condor isn’t too egregiously priced, I think that might make a more interesting addition to the slate.

Few things from SDCC- First off, Hasbro was gracious enough to grant TLS some space at their breakfast event to have ol’ John Warden come by and show off stuff from Jem, My Pet Monster, and MASK. It’s nice to see that Hasbro, at some level, is offering some support to their licensees when it’s...

Hopefully, Seaspray will be heavily stocked early on like Bumblebee was online at Pulse. I let my Pulse membership lapse for basically this reason. And my continued bitterness over Nemesis Immortal over in GI Joe…

I think I would be FAR more excited about Pythona had I been able to get Nemesis Enforcer last year. As is, now that Super7 is playing with Movie stuff? I might just wait for their offerings than try to fight online to get Pythona.

Yes, I meant Love and Thunder. It was late when I posted…and I kind of forgot Dark World (like most people I bet lol )

Yeah, we’ll see how long Hasbro lets it stand

Being a part of Disney, “resting the brand” was never an option on the back of Endgame. The need to feed the machine to feed the shareholders was too strong. The Variety interview Feige just did basically had him admitting the fundamental issue was over-saturation of Marvel, by order of...
