I actually have the PS2 emulated version I got for free with my Star Wars PS4. Unless the controls are VASTLY better...I'm probably not going to consider.

It's the 40th Anniversary, and Hasbro is making sure anyone who wants any flavor of Optimus Prime can have theirs! Appearing at Target, Power of the Primes (2018!) Leader Evolution Optimus Prime is being stocked (seemingly in number) at Target stores. Possibly an exclusive offering. This joins...

I stand by my earlier speculation that, given they came on stage with over dozen OTHER people wearing Doom costumes…RDJ is just playing one of SEVERAL versions of Dr Doom that will be featured in the film. With Deadpool and Wolverine, and even Flash, audiences seem fine with multiple actors...

To be fair, I think Core stuck to that conceit better than Legends ended up doing. The entire 2013 Legends slate were 4 packs, each with one of the “big 4”…and they sold fine FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR. Then it shifted to “small characters” and sales seemed to start dropping off. So we got...

I don’t even know what to think. Given the film is called “Doomsday”, and the follow up is “Secret War”…how can we be sure RDJ is even playing the REAL Dr Doom? Could there be several? And how are the Fantastic Four connected? Either way, after D&W, Loki Season 2 and X-Men 97…it feels like...

It assuredly is. Same reason Lego can’t do “mini figure sets” for Star Wars (and probably Marvel as well); Hasbro has the rights for single packed mass retail action figures. Their Ghostbusters license might even extend to scale options as well (Spin Master can make 4” and 12” figures, but not...

That means you’re just getting OLD (Says someone who skipped the credits and end credit scene to rush to the bathroom) Yes, and no. And it was probably the biggest pop of all the guest stars and cameos in the film at the screening I was at.

I’m still surprised at, with how much love the design team has given Victory, we’ve yet to see them build on the Power of the Prime’s Duocon engineering to give use Multiforce, in some fashion.

Ahem *pushes glasses up nose*… Bumblebee (SS-18) actually hit retail BEFORE the film. Though, ReActivate may still be in the running for a figure from a media that ends up not being released…

Given the American people voted for Donald ”Grab’em by the *****” Trump for President, clearly, we aren’t.

That’s not ominous at all!

Right now, the Core Class is rumored to be side lined. I guarantee Sureshot will make it out, even if they had to shuffle his slot. If Sureshot got some significant new tooling (or is a new mold), they might have opted to bump him out of a tail ender assortment to open up a slot for Origins...

Especially with Pulsecon and Toy Fair in September offering all the preorders for early next year…. Some observations about the 40th Sets- The first two sets really didn’t click with me to particular characters, Hasbro kept them fairly generic. But these newest sets kind of jive with a couple...

Collab Knight Rider revealed, Agent Knight. Digging this a LOT more than I expected. I think it’s the classical Autobot profile they opted for. Many of the collabs felt like they “didn’t belong”, stylistically, but Agent Knight I could see in a group shot of other Autobot cars. And I’m...

Panel/Fanstream is done. Confirmed back end of the year/early next year is heavy on repaints and reruns. A notable change is that Hasbro is seemingly offering Origins Bumblebee in the mainline. No word on Core Class Dinobot...

Hey! New toy reveals! Most notable to me is the release of ReActivate Bumblebee in a single pack (but where’s the game?) and Voyager WfC Ratchet (which means an Ironhide is coming). I love the ReActivate designs, so glad people are getting a stab at BB, and I think Ratchet is among the better...

From Hong Kong, Takara revealed a new TFOne Optimus Prime. Looks like a “plused up” Prime Changer to be sold in the leader price point point. Basically what Takara did last year, taking the Voyager Core Optimus Primal and adding size and gimmicks to push him to the leader price point. It was...

A few more details about the 2025 MOTUxTMNT line from the Turtles Toy Panel today: Line will called “Reptile Wars”, and they showed Raphael. Raphael seems to be vibing the Snake Armor He-Man look with a big ol capture claw. Love the theming, but I think the Turtles are not as…dynamic...

The official nitty gritty on the Snake Lair. Includes a comparison with Eternia which shows just how BIG it is. Grayskull is looking rather quaint after all this play set escalation. Lady Slither’s corpse is the initial backer bonus...
