I was right! Evercade just announced an Activision Collection, featuring some of their classic 2600 titles…but only 15 of them. There’s a part of me that recoils at the mere thought of paying over $30 for just 15 Atari 2600 games. But it’s also hard to tell how to interpret this: was...

I really hope kids are watching. For a five minute “hit” of fresh Transformers every week, I’ve been just enamored with this little series. As I’ve said before, the writing is really on point. It’s self aware enough to not be overly serious, but it doesn’t betray itself for the sake of...

I’m not sure the end of de minimis is the problem, itself. It’s the half-cocked, arbitrary, process by which this is all being implemented. The rules for these vast, global, interactions are being changed every few weeks, and international sellers are not going to continue “business as usual”...

And just to clarify, aside from Walmart’s two exclusives (CyberChanger Mirage and Ultimate CyberChanger Megatron), the entire 2025 assortment is now available. Wave 2/3 CyberChangers are available, spotty at retail but readily available from Amazon, and there should be nothing new until the...

'Tis the season, boys and girls! Discount retailers are gearing up for Christmas so leftovers are starting to filter in. Some things I found today: Ross- Legacy United Core Class, $2.99 (Adam16bit reported finding Cheetor, I just found Energon Galvatron), Legacy United Deluxe $7.99 (Animated...

Roger Corman "classic" Deathstalker apparently got remade. Originally made in the early 80s to cash in on the success of Conan The Barbarian, the film was a hit (based on its minuscule budget) and would spawn THREE additional films, with the last being released in 1991. Proving no property is...

Nothing at Walmart, but then again, my Walmart still has "clearance" plastered over half the aisle, so they probably haven't reset. And my not until after Labor Day (clear out the old stuff).

90s video game stalwart, Acclaim, is apparently being relaunched. News came a while back that a number of investors (including pro-wrestler Jeff Jarrett) had invested to lay ownership of the Acclaim name...but the status of its properties is less clear. In the 20 years since Acclaim's...

A developing story at the moment: Everest Toys, a Canada based distributor, has, seemingly, abruptly shut down. Everest is a North American distributor for specialty retailers who handle everything from acquired brands like Crazy Forts and Alex Global Products, to distribution for major...

Somehow, Gigatron returned outside the collector lines...

All I know is that Trump hasn’t been thin enough or limber enough to walk like that in at LEAST 25 years

FWIW, I HAVE posted about them in assorted threads, I just didn’t think there was enough interest to start a new thread about them (I think Mayhem’s general video game thread?). These got showed off last February during Toy Fair, Adam16bit gave them some early coverage where I first learned...

New trailer went out for MKLK, confirming the addition of MK Mythologies: Sub-Zero and Special Forces, with rewind features. I’m still hopeful MK Gold will end up being added at some point, it IS basically “Ultimate MK4”

Hasbro doesn’t make Micro Galaxy Squadron, that’s a Jazwares thing. The smallest Star Wars toys Hasbro makes (ATM) are the 3.75” Epic Hero figures.

I mean, a logical person might push the onus for addressing those issues might be to educate parents (and get them involved) or push for media literacy in schools. But no, that requires actual effort on all those parties, so it’s just easier to say “it’s the evil web sites” and try to penalize...

Well, frick, Best Buy. I shopped with you because you had resisted the easy cash of the 3rd party resellers. Not sure I’m going to renew my Member’s Plus subscription next year since I ain’t paying for “lesser Amazon”. I paid that premium to support YOUR company, not whichever slaps junk up...

Dude, Silverhawks would go PERFECTLY with New Adventures characters

I have tremendously fond memories of Universe (the core 2003-2005 retail line, anyway). By 2003, I was “adulting” enough to be able to buy my own Transformers on a regular basis, and Universe was the best chance I (and I presume other late-comers or those who otherwise missed the pre-2002...

While Hurricane Erin is not expected to make any landfall, the intensity of the storm has been such that the east coast is feeling the impacts with live threatening rip currents and severe beach erosion. The storm has "resorted" itself and is, again, intensifying, and could reach Category 3...
