    Ninja Turtles - Cowabunga!

    I am so torn... I just got the Ultimates GitD Mutagen Man and Metalhead very recently, and the nostalgia has hit hard. The NECA are great looking, but I always worry about NECA QC, which is why, while I have found almost everything (for the Target show design ones) except the April O'Neil...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    So I found Bulkhead today at Target. After seeing that the new SS Deluxes and Voyagers kept the plastic to protect the figure, I assumed they would do the same with Legacy, but nope, they have "steal me" packaging. I can't wait to find them missing heads and/or accessories. And with places...

    Studio Series discussion

    And the toy industry as a whole resisted price increases for a long while. There were a few jumps when the new size classes were introduced in Armada, but between BW and RotF in '09, there was not a huge change in pricing. Now it bumps up every few years... Then again, toys are not being...

    Anime

    Yeah.... Since it was technically the Funimation name who bought CR, I was hoping they would either keep Funi, or merge the names somehow. And not only that, but now that I will be forced to do this (assuming they are keeping up with simuldubs), I will be paying twice as much yearly, but I...

    Random Transformers Videos

    So I found this today... I cannot figure out how to just get the video from reddit, so gotta link the topic itself.

    Inverted Controls

    I have never been able to use non inverted y axis. It absolutely drives me crazy. On a controller, at least. In the rare instances I play on the PC using a mouse and keyboard (usually first or 3rd person shooters), I do use the regular y axis, although I have not played any flight type games...

    WFC Kingdom Appreciation Thread

    Finally found Blaster, a nice find to end the year. Much more manageable size than the Titans Return version. The only downside I found is that his gun is not compatible with effect pieces. I was hoping that at least the weapons would continue to be usable with the pieces but alas...

    Hasbro Pulse TFTM Stop Motion Video "Discontinued"

    They played that and one or two more (I remember one with the Sweeps) last month when they had the TFTM screening. It is cool that they are releasing them to the general public now. Now I need to find the other official stop motion videos, like the one that had with the Sailor Moon-esque...

    Yeah, I had it in my cart, then it was out of stock before I could finish the order...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    But on the other hand, it does not have to make the sacrifices that were needed for the connectors in CW or G1, so they can make the figure as normal as possible. I mean, I did like the CW figures, and liked how they could be switched around easily, but they definitely became very same-y when...

    Hasbro PulseCon 2021 October 22nd & October 23rd

    Was a bit surprised that the Galvatron is not out earlier. Got all the Transformers and Power Rangers Lightning stuff ordered/preordered. I have plenty of time to change my mind on most of them anyways. Now if the chat on the livestream was not far more cringe than the lines the hosts had to...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    I am definitely liking this line, and I do like the idea of reimagining them to fit a more G1 aesthetic. Aside from them being able to sit on the same shelves as the WFC figures, I also like how, while the effect parts have been taking a backburner, it looks like the guns are still compatible...

    Cyberverse Appreciation Thread

    That happens all the time as well, the problem with the open packages now is like with the Lebron Space Jam figures with no heads, it is far more convenient for the "casual" person to just see something and grab a piece of it. It takes far more dedication to open boxes, or even switch figures.

    Metroid

    I dunno, I still liked Other M. I was fine with the story, the only thing that felt disjointed was the first person view when you go to missles. I mean, I know they liked to really experiment at that time with the Wii gimmicks, but it definitely messed with the flow, and made a few battles...

    Metroid

    Got 100% items on my first playthrough in 11:30. Absolutely LOVE the game. Not too hard, hardest was actually finding all the items and figuring out all the Speed Boost puzzles without help. That, and the last boss took me quite a few tries, the only thing I found real hard. But fair...

    WFC Kingdom Appreciation Thread

    Coincidentally, mine came in from Target.com today. Also, found Waspinator and Shadow Panther at Target yesterday. As well as finding this gem in their incredibly messy and unkempt toy department (I am told they don't have enough people, and those they have are made to get the online orders...

    Cyberverse Appreciation Thread

    I actually just for the Deluxe class Cheetor for that same price, so I am quite happy considering I do not like the Cyberverse lines quite as much as Generations (although I did not know until checkout, so was gonna get it at $20 anyways). I REALLY do not like the open packaging, as it is just...

    Anime

    From what I gathered from Greg Ayers talking about it at several panels over the years, they could not get anyone to even license it overseas, which is why they gave almost free reign in the dub. Apparently the only things that were not allowed to be changed were the names of characters...
