That raises a valid point, though:
While each team seems to have a decent focus for their mission, Wolverine and Morph are the odd balls-
Morph has his PTSD with Sentinels AND Sinister, plus the ability to mimic any number of mutants (including power houses like Juggernaut). Why place him in a...
It’s the “GI Joe effect” all over again:
Given the unlimited restrictions of having to make molds, Hasbro (or TaKara, in this case) will go for the same old stuff they always do.
At least with Missing Link, they will be compellingly unique.
Walmart’s Star Raiders Leader class offering has been leaked, and it is a Thundertron set. Featuring Thundertron with a hook hand and new head sculpt (more evocative of the original toy’s design), he also comes with Calcitron (a Magneous retool in shades of blue) and a Siege Ratbat retool...
Ahead of Prime Video’s Upfront next week, they’ve released press material for their new Animated Series (salvaged from Max), Batman Caped Crusader. Produced by Bruce Timm, JJ Abrams and Matt Reeves; with writing by Ed Brubaker, the series is set in Batman’s early days. First 10 episodes go...
The. Target 3 pack are all remolds of existing toys:
Mirage came from RiD/Cyberverse Blurr, while both Megatron and Optimus Prime come from Cyberverse One steps
Pile of exclusives!

This explains some of the earlier listings found. Which leads me to think the US "mass retail" toy line is going to be about as modest as Rise of the Beasts...
Yeah, I don't know who is asking for Age of Apocalypse, again, given they already "did it". I feel like the original Asteroid M arc was oriented to a mix of X-Men 91 #1-3 with a bit of Fatal Attractions, while this one is far more a blend of OZT with more direct Fatal Attractions pulled in.
I...
I'll also say that, while I didn't initially care for Matthew Waterson's Magneto early on (the character just came across a bit...slimy?..to me). Post-Mutant Massacre, his work as the angry broken man with the power to destroy everything has been on point!
The costumes bemused me greatly considering the show had used "modern" looks in conjunction with classic arcs (like the Phoenix Sagas and Proteus), and here we are with a more "modern" story arc with characters sporting classic costumes. While they DID justify it, I think somebody just thought...
Detail on From the Ashes X-Factor-
Taking a cue from the group's original concept, Angel and Havok lead a government sanctioned team of mutants to counter the rise of other countries' own mutant strike teams and be the "poster group" of celebrity mutant heroes. Initial line up includes Feral...
X-Men are getting new clothes tomorrow! Cable is donning (as teased) his mid-90s blue and yellow getup, Morph is getting a late 80s blue and yellow getup with 90s appropriate shoulder pads and the rest? Cyclops, Jean Grey, Rogue and Wolverine join Storm in the "classic era" costume fashion...
The judge is limited on New York statutes for that crime. His only options are a $1000 fine OR "up to" 30 days in jail per offense.
And it has already been addressed the logistical and political issues surrounding sending Donald Trump to jail...but it feels like Trump is just going to keep...
My favorites of ToG have been the ones that "cross the line" into being viable as stand alone MOTU concepts, IN ADDITION to the crossover angle. Shredder was definitely one that did that well. He's just as viable as some warlord for He-Man to fight as he is a cross-dimensional villain.
I'm...
Mer Man has, to me, had a very "generic" look. He's a human with "fishy" features.
ToG's? He has a LOT more defined "aquatic elements" than prior iterations. You can look at his face and you clearly see the abnormal mouth and "tease" derived from angler fish. His hands are more abnormally...
And then, my counter to that would be the fact I could still find PEGS of Snake Eyes movie figures at Walmarts all the way into last fall, two years after the film was released. Yet, GI Joe remains in Hasbro’s full control (That said, I still think Joe is “on the edge” in that regard).
But...
So, I got to relay this:
My Walmart just did a summer toy reset. Action figure section expanded to the largest it’s been since AT LEAST 2009, carrying over a dozen lines it hadn’t touched in years.
But what surprised me? This store, which hadn’t carried Power Rangers since the first year of...
Ghostbusters sites are reporting that MeTV Toons (launching this summer) will be featuring The Real Ghostbusters among the line up when the new broadcast network launches on June 25
