Did we need any more proof after they explicitly said that they really struggled with Nexus, things kept shifting, and plans got changed multiple times? They haven't explicitly said what the factors were that they were fighting against, but we've known for quite a while that the Nexus we're...

I ordered Megatron to go with Behold Galvatron, and Cybertronic because I'm all for new characters, especially new Decepticons.

Everything is fuzzy from back then for me. I definitely remember getting the Devastator giftset. I think that was my big Christmas gift for '85. And I know I had two Fireflights, which I recall being from having him on his own, and then later getting the giftset. Beyond that, I remember getting...

The Energon capsule figures are available for preorder on Pulse now. Supposed to ship September 1st.

OK, but where does Kiss Players fit into all this?

I was pretty lucky in that I was able to complete all the combiners I got any part of: Devastator, Superion, Bruticus, Abominus, and Monstructor. The first three are all, as mentioned with Bruticus, possibly entombed in a crate somewhere. I think it might even technically be possible to combine...

Ninja'd by Sabrblade! Listings with pictures are up on Pulse. The first three figures are TotK Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf. Preorders open tonight at 8PM EDT. https://www.hasbropulse.com/product/the-legend-of-zelda-heroes-of-hyrule-link/G45155X00?cgid=new...

Happy birthday! 47 here. I imagine I must be among the younger people who can remember a time before Transformers existed. I turned 5 a couple weeks before the first comic issue was released. I can just barely remember a time when they were a new thing. I'll back up Platypus Prime from the...

My G1 Bruticus ended up in pretty rough shape. As best I can remember, he was the first combiner I collected through individual releases rather than giftsets (Devastator & Superion). I think he might still be around in a crate in the garage, but he's not getting any more use at this point. I do...

Come on up here to Michigan! I don't think I've caught it, but my stomach hasn't felt right since I spent a couple days stuck near the bathroom a few weeks ago. I wouldn't call it explosive, though. So if I did catch it, must have been a very mild case.

Oh, they definitely manipulate the numbers. I don't have any links handy, but Sony's been citing a figure that 85% of sales are digital, while not bothering to mention that includes games that don't have a physical release. Where there's a choice, it varies from game to game of course, but...

I think the biggest problem with how the wave system works is the giant disconnect between how manufacturers populate them and how retailers order them. Manufacturers like Hasbro want to evenly space out their product over the course of a year. They'll have three or four waves a year, roughly...

I guess there's one upside in this case that helps: Swindle isn't going to be arriving until after Onslaught anyway. If I were just waiting on Onslaught to be able to complete the team and form Bruticus, it would be MUCH harder to show any restraint.

My first one broke at the shoulder years ago, before I was aware he suffered from GPS. Possibly even before I knew of GPS. I was able to get a second one at a reasonable price, and he was still ok as of a few months ago. But at this point, I've decided he's never going back into beast mode...

Definitely looking forward to finally getting a new TM1 Megatron. I love the original, but there's a lot of opportunity to improve on it in quite a few ways. A more cohesive T-Rex torso. More articulation. Propellers that are posable in both modes. Not being dinky next to his other forms, or his...

He's in my PoL too. I still have 41 days to go before it expires. I love the service, but I hate forcing myself to hold off on hitting that ship button!

I don't think I could say no if they made figures of all the Zelda 1 bosses. Or all the enemies from that game, for that matter... I kinda doubt it will ever happen, but I'd love to see a matching set of figures for all the Links from each game. They pretty much achieved that for all the 3D...

Hasbro got the Zelda license! And we'll be seeing the first three 6" figures at SDCC! My guess would be Link, Zelda, and a third character from next year's movie. I would guess Ganondorf, but I don't think we've seen any images of him yet, have we? SDCC does seem like a strong possibility for...

Yeah, I don't necessarily have a big issue with the future being digital. I like collecting physical games, but I know that won't continue forever. The problem is knowing that the collection of games you've bought can just disappear overnight on the whims of the company. Sony made that concern...

I had to cancel my Matrix. 😭 I'll have to watch for sales/clearance.
