”oh come on, its not that bad? You’ve just been attending to many events featuring cursed items of Legend!” As they ran (or flew in Scarlets case) around the halls of the Mansion, Scarlets brain buzzed as he frantically pulled his thoughts together. ” Amber, get to the ballroom! Static, you...

I'm picturing her wondering how to remove it, and she's so used to doing everything with her magic that it doesn't occur to her that she can just use a hoof. Silly spoiled unicorns.

Yikes. Take care. Last year's Great Flood in my area took months to clean up.

I'm a college grad and I would say it was an absolute scam.

If it did have something to do with Covid it makes those toys into interesting artifacts in a way. Even toys in that era got sick.

That's what I'm talking about. Hasbro was trying to break into videogames for the fourth or fifth time, so they bought Atari. It was an odd move considering Atari was seemingly next to worthless at the time, but Hasbro saw potential in it. As is often the case with Hasbro's crazy ideas it was...

This is why they're asking for a jury trial. There's no case here, just the threat that a jury could be bewildered into feeling like the big corporation must have done something wrong. They're hoping Hasbro will just pay the ransom and settle with no admission of wrongdoing. I hope Hasbro's...

Hasbro is currently facing a class action lawsuit by the West Palm Beach Firefighters' Pension Fund, over allegations that the company has been misleading investors regarding the quality of its inventory. If any of that sounds confusing, I'll try to break down the alleged chain of events here...

I read the complaint. This will either quietly settle out of court and you'll never hear about it again, or it'll be dismissed. There's no case here. ... And? Can anybody think of any movies that underperformed in 2022 and 2023? Any movies at all? Plaintiffs seem to envision toys as just a...

But then how's Amber going to do things with her magic?

I'm not the biggest fan of the Heisei films. They're often thoroughly silly, which is fine, but they're in denial about it. Pick a lane. Be a the serious reboot or not. I kinda like Godzilla vs King Ghidorah though. The time travel plot does mostly make sense, and the running android is one of...

There's a chance. Simpler, lower budget games are all they can really afford to do right now, and also all I would actually want.

I'm aware of 4-packs and single carded releases, but not 2-packs. I had a few. Mystery Big Lots robots were my favorite toys before I got my hands on real Transformers.

It's getting to be a very crowded boat. Most of the industry ought to be rethinking the money they've been spending on movies.

I still have some Trendmasters stuff. I think I have most of the 4 inch line. Somehow their proportions and details were better than the larger toys.

The comics never showed Static learning about Night Cap's work, so it's time to explore the issue. Why is he so tired during the day?

We're just not used to this routine anymore because their Hollywood dream lasted an unusually long time. But, financially it really didn't last that much longer than their usual ventures. They just took longer than usual to give up, because those initial returns were so surprisingly good.

I recognize that mantis in the upper left corner. Below Manterror. It's one of those Fighting Insect / Winged-Bots things that used to be all over Big Lots.

This is why I'm not so pessimistic about this doom spiral Hasbro seems to be in. They're always lurching from one grandiose dream to the next. We're just between dreams right now. They're going to come back with an idea so crazy that it actually works for a while. They always do.

Apparently I'm bad at pattern recognition, because I did not notice that. I may be underestimating this show. I'm actually tempted to go back and watch the compilations to see how much I'm missing.
