Super7 is going a LOT more into GI Joe than, arguably, Hasbro is. Like their fantastic looking pop up store at SDCC: The Cobra Global Operations location. This is also where the info about the Snake Mothership first came out. ReAction or not…seeing that wall of carded GI Joe figures just...

I’m with the broader consensus here: Commander Ultra Magnus is very nice, but it doesn’t do anything (short of extra paint and extra accessories) appreciably better than the Kingdom one I already have. Same is true of Ratchet, I already have the Siege (love the Cybertronian “geebles“ ) AND...

So, just sayin‘, anyone want to split a set? I want SG Hot Rod, but not Armada Dredge. Any takers?

I appreciate it for what it is, and props for official VW branding. But I’m still over here, holding my candle for a transforming Owlbear…

On the subject of the old movie, there is apparently a Gwildor figure on deck as well (in a two pack with Resurrected Orko). Mattel also put out samples of Cyborg Skeletor, also to be featured in MOTU Revolution.

For all intents and purposes, Hasbro has largely “given up” marketing the kids stuff at these sorts of events. A majority of collectors either don’t notice, don’t care, or complain about that segment’s inclusion. I don’t expect any news about Earthspark toys

Also, Super7 is REALLY starting to flex themselves, with the reveal of ReAction Trouble Bubbles and a Cobra Mothership (the one from the opening of ARAH season 1. Yes, reportedly, Super7 IS planning on offering this for sale. If Super7 starts offering 3.75” vehicles, that entire line could...

Tiger Force Flint was looking REALLY good until that face paint. I don’t mind the addition of it, but the application here (the black band across his eyes) is a bit..bland and lack personality, relative to what Tunnel Rat and Dusty ended up getting. While I applaud new concepts and idea, the...

Hot Shot will push $40, mark my words. It's not just the minicon, but the extra guns and blast effects as well. Also, that sure looks like an Armada Thrust from the cone head mold lurking back there...

They are going to get us on double dips before we even get Copper Kid, aren't they?

I fear the day they offer the Miraj

First images from Super7’s SDCC booth. Notable for me are the toy-deco Silverhawks figures, which feature a toy deco Buzzsaw and Vac Metal Steelhart and Quicksilver. https://toynewsi.com/345-48619

My observations, for whatever THAT is worth, was that MOTU Netflix was seemingly doing “okay”. In that, I saw some regular turn over and found new figures reasonably quickly. Then again, I also saw another Walmart with PILES of the stuff on clearance. But Mattel had a LOT of stuff on deck for...

Some…minor weirdness from Hasbro’s SDCC product display (that I could see, it seems to have been…OVERLOOKED by many sites). The placard for Core Voyager Rhinox lists a release date of October. Yet Walmart is LOADED with him at the moment. Placards for the Core Deluxe figures say…Available...

Boy, I think I might be irritating Carson Mataxis over on Facebook :p He's gotten some JUICY stuff concerning GI Joe 1995, with comments from Marketing Director Vinnie D'Alleva. But I had to open my gob and contradict some of the information. Not out of spite, but I felt Mr. D'Allleva's...

https://variety.com/2023/film/news/masters-of-the-universe-movie-dead-netflix-1235673281/ Looks like Netflix was balking at the costs for the film well before the strikes. With production on everything halted for an unknown amount of time, Netflix probably felt the film wasn’t worth stringing...

Weekend update, and it’s still just bad news for the film. While final numbers aren’t in, BOM estimates are generally close enough to interpret broad trends. And the trend for Flash is a continued train crash into a chasm that just get deeper and deeper… Weekend 5, roughly a month since...

Hasbro, basically, never marketed the $60 “Ultimate” Optimus Primal toy at all. All indications are this was a TakaraTomy deal that Hasbro was courteous enough to offer to import through its “fan channel” partners. Reportedly, this figure runs around $40 in Japan, but I think Hasbro added a...
