  1. Conspiracy lunatic thread - people who believe in absurd nonsense are dangerous

    IIRC, after he moved assets around, his COMPANY, Free Speech Systems, declared bankruptcy. This time, he’s filing it on himself concerning his own assets.
  2. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    The only hint I want is of a big purple mecha-Tyrannosaurus. A thought did occur to me: earlier leaks referenced the Maximals as having a "steam punk" look with rusted elements. The ONLY place I really see that is in the big battle sequence, so I'm left wondering...is that big battle at the...
  3. Guardians of the Glaxay Vol. 3-Adam Warlock has been cast!

    I'm sure it will be about as emotional as Iron Man 3, or Thor Ragnarok...or Spider-Man No Way Home...or Avengers Infinity War... Yeah, there'll be tears.
  4. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    3. Because a straight pink bike would be laughed at. And it's not as if Arcee hasn't had other colors before (blue in Prime, THREE in Revenge of the Fallen, depending on how you count that mess). 5. That's the point of a teaser, to give people a tease to garner interest for a later trailer...
  5. DC Toy Thread

    Deals are afoot for Spinmaster’s stuff! Walmart has been running the 4” figures at $6.97 (YMMV) since October. At MY store (as I said, YMMV when it comes to Walmart), the “holiday Train” of lower cost toys had 12” Batman figures, and 4” DC Superheroes. Kind of disappointed that there wasn’t a...
  6. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie

    Pratt’s voice isn’t bothering me. If anything, it seems like he’s trying (or being asked) to strike something of a balance between the high pitched Martinet style and the gruff, vaguely Italian, style of the DiC cartoons (which was how a LOT of people in the their 30s/40s remember his voice)...
  7. Andor - streaming on Disney+

    If nothing else, that ending stinger REALLY helps recontextualize the entire prison arc. Seems a LOT of people were left wondering about the whole work prison thing to begin with, but the end products’ use DOES explain much of it: If you are building a major project in secret, you want as few...
  8. G.I. Joe thread - Yo Jo June 2026: Hooded Cobra Commander and others

    Not a damned thing. Nothing gets resolved, the issue (only SLIGHTLY longer than a standard issue) ends on a “To Be Continued!?” It doesn’t clear the slate for 301, it didn’t even have the balls to use the mutagenic zombie bomb to establish a new status quo for the next publisher either...
  9. Andor - streaming on Disney+

    I initially thought there was talk of MULTIPLE seasons. Then, last week, Tony Gilroy and co were talking about just a second season. Guess we'll see, though it seems another season is, indeed, confirmed and is now filming. Low viewership doesn't, necessarily, surprise me. The show DOES have...
  10. G.I. Joe thread - Yo Jo June 2026: Hooded Cobra Commander and others

    Good thing Serpentor came in today to wash out the taste of Issue 300 out of my mouth. Few things have incensed me more than how this issue has been handled. I'll write out a good rant later, but the short version is that issue 300 is an insult to fans, and IDW, Hasbro and Hama all should be...
  11. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    From everything reported over the past year…I feel it‘s quite probable the first one we saw (which now seems to be from the “core” line”) was probably developed based on preliminary work. When Snake Eyes underwent its frequent delays, Hasbro basically didn’t do anything with the “Ninja Core”...
  12. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

    An image cropped up of a mug supposedly featuring the Rise of the Beasts Maximal cast (Airrazor, Cheetor, Rhinos and Primal) in beast mode. https://news.tfw2005.com/2022/11/21/possible-first-look-at-rise-of-the-beasts-maximal-cast-470338 If accurate, I'm digging the season 1 crossed with Beast...
  13. Disney animation and related media

    Disney’s Board of Directors have reinstated prior CEO Bob Igor just months after a 3-year extension to Bob Chapek’s contract. They were apparently dissatisfied with recent earnings report and reached out to Iger last Friday. Chapek found out he was canned Sunday evening. I mean, Chapek had...
  14. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    It's that time of year! Sales and more sales! Nintendo has a big Cyber sale going on. Nothing of significance I noticed, in terms of particular discounts. Most are hitting their prior lows. But that doesn't mean there aren't deals to be had! Grid Autosport (a port of the PS3 era game) is...
  15. HasLab Deathsaurus

    Hasbro is not going to spend the resources to use 30+ year old cartoons as a foundation for their current initiatives. I still remember Gundam's momentum going off the rails when Bandai, in their infinite wisdom, thought a dub of 1979's original series was a valid next step after the success of...
  16. Transformers: EarthSpark

    InDemandToys has posted in package images of the first couple waves of Earthrise Deluxe, including image backs. These images have revealed the last of the initial “Mandroid Series” figures: Nightshade and Grimlock. I’m eager to see Grimlock in action, and what little I see of the design seems...
  17. Transformers: EarthSpark

    Oh, details, details.... :p I just wanted to add that I love the electronica score here. It's been ages since we got a fresh audio "personality" for a series, especially with "epically, epicness" seems to dominate in the post-movie era. A LOT of that battle music jostled old Season 3 of G1...
  18. CoffeeHorse's Hospital Adventure

    Depends on the age of the hospital or even the "area". Different areas can have "different energy" depending on what occurred there. I work at a hospital which was built back in the 60s and built onto over the years. There are places (like Central Stores, which was a morgue at one point, or...
  19. Transformers Legacy toyline

    Hasbro has been doing the solid case thing since AT LEAST 2015. It was one of the earliest things they did in their big collector initiatives. They made a big fuss about it during their investor reports. Specialty retailers have the option of ordering solid cases of most active collector...
  20. Thundercats - General Discussion (and some Silverhawks too, whynot)

    Y'know, it's probably a good thing the Silverhawks Ultimates got pushed back to next year. Hasbro's rolled a TON of stuff forward, wrecking my budget.
