    Hasbr-uh-oh - Business and Tariffs Discussion

    I just had my first instance of having to directly pay a tariff fee, rather than having it baked into the purchase price. My World Dragnus just arrived today. Had to pay $30 to DHL the other day to get them to finish delivering it. There's knowing Trump's tariffs are hurting you, and then...

    Dragon Quest

    Finished off the Dragonlord earlier. I've played every major version of the game released in English (NES, GBC, mobile, and now HD-2D), going back to the original NES version being the first RPG I ever played through to completion. This is, by far and bar none, the most I've enjoyed playing...

    Dragon Quest

    I got to put quite a bit of time into the game over the weekend. I'm just about ready to head to the Dragonlord's castle. Hopefully I can finish up and write up my thoughts in the next day or two. However, I did want to make note of one particular detail, which does involve spoilers. First off...

    Dragon Quest

    DQ3 had a lot of the same sorts of changes, just smaller in scope. DQ1 is getting fleshed out and brought more in line with the rest of the series. DQ3 already was a little more fleshed out and in line with the rest of the series on the NES, so it didn't need quite as much updating. But...

    I wish I'd kept the picture I took of a PotP Rodimus at Meijer. Had the trailer, but no Hot Rod.

    The Best Thing About HeroQuest is….

    Kellar's Keep and Return of the Witch Lord were the common quest packs that were released in both the UK and the US during the original HQ run. In the UK, they then released Against the Ogre Horde and Wizards of Morcar. In the US, they didn't release either of those, but planned to make four...

    Legacy Vector Prime was a retool. At this point, I'm betting that AotP Vector Prime is not going to be the package refresh we've been expecting. First thing, Legacy Vector Prime doesn't have his personal symbol painted on anywhere. It's a seemingly trivial thing, but all of the other Primes...

    Thread of Thoughts, Questions (and Maybe Even Answers) That Don't Deserve Their Own Thread

    My answer is, "Yes." We're 40 years into this franchise. It doesn't have to be just one thing. It shouldn't be. It CAN'T be. There have to be different projects with different approaches that appeal to different people. No one's going to like all of them, no project will appeal to everyone, and...

    I just want to know where I need to shout at the top of my lungs about Earthspark Soundwave.

    Interview with Evan at MCM this weekend: Relevant to Legacy/AotP (Evan referred to the modern range including AotP as Legacy a couple times): Showed off and talked about Onslaught a bit. Indicated he's about the same size as Silverbolt. Bruticus redeco giftsets are likely to happen a couple...

    Studio Series discussion

    Interview with Evan at MCM this weekend: Relevant to SS: Basically confirmed that the new Retro Wheelie mold will get an SS86 release with a TFTM deco and head sculpt. The new smooth sculpting seen in the new seeker mold is because they really wanted to get the animation aesthetic for the...

    The Best Thing About HeroQuest is….

    Wizards of Morcar is coming in March. And oddly enough, it's still named as such, even while referring to Zargon on the box. Besides the stuff from the original WoM, it appears to come with an additional five quests, a fifth evil wizard, a new female wizard hero mini, a minotaur, a couple giant...

    I don't think there's anything wrong with you at all. I think it's a combination of lighting, slightly asymmetrical sculpting, posing, and camera angle. My primary lighting was more from the right than head on. You can see more shadow in his abs on the right side of the picture. The sculpted...

    He was the first Cybertronian to ever learn to write. They hadn't figured out proper technique yet. And you know how old people are about learning new skills...

    It's the angle of the picture. From straight on, you can see it's centered.

    I had the exact same problem. Most current instructions include a one-time unboxing steps section, but it's inconsistent how complete they are. This one didn't show anything about reconfiguring the shield. It was a little while before I realized it had multiple configurations beyond just...
