So I have started looking for Knockoffs on Walmart.com lately, and I have ran across some interesting ones:

I started playing Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart on the PS5 this past weekend. Despite some issues with the platforming, I thought it was a fun game and look forward to playing some more of it.
That is what I did for my kids. Not the branding, but I got them a Switch 2 and a copy of the game for Christmas as well as a few other games and controllers.

I understand that most people don't think of him out of trying to block out the trauma.
You know, I wonder about that. We know that they have said that it takes 2 years to bring a toy to retail, so how is it a filler line? Like did they just rush everything through? Did they find out the delay years in advance? I am not doubting the story that it was a filler line, but I just have...
My apologies, for using that as an example, as one didn't have to be in the online fandom to be a collector, but I would dare to say that the Venn diagram of collectors and online forum members in 2007 is almost one circle.

So here is the thing, I wouldn't call Classics a collector line either. Like sure us TF collectors liked the Classics line, but I think that we can agree that Classics was aimed at all the people that grew up with G1 more so than all of us...
You know, I don't disagree with the idea of Machine Wars, Universe, and RID0.5 being just lines to get easy product out the door, and any fan service was a bonus. However, I find it hard to believe that Classics wasn't made with the G1 fans in mind. The line was just packed with G1 fan service...
