  1. Hasbr-uh-oh

    No, the Pawtucket location (with the Potato Head statue) is primary HQ and has remained open. Hasbro DID close some office space that had been set up in Providence. That’s probably what you’re thinking of.
  2. Hasbr-uh-oh

    Good thing he’s looking at moving Hasbro HQ to Boston, then :p
  3. The Original Gobots returning to TV

    On the Freevee app, I selected my channel/show/feed and below the “watch now” button, they have the next several hours listed out. As far as I can find, NONE of these FAST streaming providers have a full blown, extended schedule for viewing. I’ll also say this: a lot of these guys are jive for...
  4. The new Transformers Deal Thread

    For Target Circle members: Target is offering 25% off ONE toy or kids book, from 10/20 until 11/16. Stores should be building up for the holidays, so there should be some interesting stuff to use it on.
  5. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    Minor update: the original GI Joe ARAH series is on the slate for Pluto TV's Kartoon Channel, which has typically shown old DiC shows like the Mario animated series.
  6. The Original Gobots returning to TV

    Kind of an addition/update to the state of some FAST Streaming Channels: Warner Discovery launched a slate of FAST channels on Roku and Amazon/Freevee. Here's the gist from a Roku announcement, but Amazon appears to have the same stuff...
  7. Hasbr-uh-oh

    I've been saying for YEARS the only reason I think GI Joe Classified even got going was because of the hanging "tease" of continued film development. The line seems to have "earned its way"...but it still feels like a brand that's straddling the line between being retained in house, or being...
  8. Hasbr-uh-oh

    His departure (after 25 years) makes me think there's been some "streamlining" on the managerial level. Which means somebody still there just inherited Transformers AND GI Joe responsibilities. I can't be too fussed either way, I mean, fan or not, that's how corporate operates these days...
  9. Joker Folie A Deux, madness of two

    WB has announced that Joker 2 will be released on streaming platforms NEXT WEEK, October 29. After its third weekend, the film has continued to see some impressively precipitous drops, week to week. After the 80+% drop for its second weekend, last weekend saw a near 70% drop off to a measly $2...
  10. Deadpool 3!!

    They got to squeeze what they can from the streaming FOMO crowd first :p I've seen it vary from film to film. Sometimes it will be day of the physical release, sometimes after. I fully expect this to be on Disney+ by the end of November, in time for the holiday season.
  11. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    It‘s possible that the MASS Device could end up a “Fan Channel” or Pulse exclusive. For all the over-hyped success many fans are attributing to Classified, it remains fairly niche and a LOT of higher cost items are ending up as de facto online exclusives rather than full retail coverage. Then...
  12. Power Rangers General Discussion Thread

    Since Hasbro has..off loaded the brand from their hands for the moment, it’s apparently time to clean the closets. Heritage Auctions is running a monthlong auction for, basically, everything viable left from the Saban/BVS/Hasbro media warehouses concerning Power Rangers and it’s cousin series...
  13. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    A few reveals from NYCC. Next major event is 1027, which may give us details on Nemesis Enforcer (shown in package, but never mentioned again by Hasbro). First big detail is that Hasbro openly reported ”production shifts” in the 2025 GI Joe assortments, leading to product delays. It is...
  14. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    It actually doesn’t surprise me. Given the general dynamics of the 70-80s wrestling industry and the nature of the talent, I figure most of the “old generation” probably skewed conservative. Just watching the “Mr MacMahon“ documentary on Netflix, the parallels to Trump were noticeable. And I...
  15. Studio Series discussion

    In fairness, the actual toy in actual lighting conditions skews more purple than the renders would indicate: https://news.tfw2005.com/2024/10/19/nycc-2024-hasbro-breakfast-event-photos-524094 It’s not 100% on point to the exact shade of the animation cels you all seem to want…but I think it’s...
  16. Transformers Collaborative (Transformers X Star Wars: The Mandalorian)

    The base figure is cool, but why is no one giving props to the TREMENDOUSLY novel integrating of the flight stand? Instead of a useless accessory, the flight stand becomes the cape and a shield. That just so novel I can't help but not love it.
  17. Anime

    In other words, it got "DBZ'ed" but wasn't popular enough to finish the run :p I watched a few episodes of the original a couple years back when it was on Hulu (my intro to anime was stuff like Robotech, Macross Plus, Blue Seed and other stuff on Starz! Action channel's Saturday night anime...
  18. The new Transformers Deal Thread

    From retail listings, I know Beachcomber and maybe Devcon, have gotten new runs to alleviate that issue. Given Axlgrease isn't a G1 character, I'm not hopeful for a rerun there.
  19. Transformers Retro G1 Figures

    Hasbro Pulse has preorders up for these two (plus other Walmart stuff). I snagged a couple Bumblebees. What can I say, it's working for me. And I certainly trust Pulse when it comes to a preorder more than frickin' Walmart.
  20. Transformers: EarthSpark

    I hear that’s an intentional “loop hole” done by companies to reduce how much they pay per episode/season. Anyway, new season starts next week, and a new trailer dropped: Prowl, the Hate Plague, and Quintessons will be featured this season. Mirage and a new Battle Trailer for Optimus...
