Why do you think I daily drive a Mac? :p Besides, Counter-counterpoint, I feel sufficiently competent to fiddle with Linux if Windows continues to get worse, so…. :p

First teaser is out for Brave New World, featuring the return of Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson, Captain America as well as Harrison Ford as President Thunderbolt Ross. Featuring a lot of spy/espionage stuff with a big focus on Giancarlo Esposito (despite casting reports indicating another...

Well, the laptop WAS on sale. $899, down from 1399. No way in hell I’m paying full price for an HP Victus! My issue has been I’ve “wavered“ on earlier deals (like the aforementioned Flow X13) and missed out. As is, I’m surprised there hasn’t been any coverage from the tech sites about it...

Saw this on a release slate a couple weeks ago, but I wasn’t sure if I believe it, but… Namco is releasing a port of Ace Combat 7. Scratch that, it was released yesterday, July 11. Five years after the game’s original release on eighth gen systems (PS4, XB1), Namco has dropped the Switch port...

Eh, not really. The Steam Deck is nice, but it’s kind of like buying a Switch when you know a new one is due in the next year, y’know? All the handhelds have limited I/O, and are all low powered APUs. They’re pretty good for NOW, but at their pricing, spending that extra $200-300 netted me an...

The reality is that there is a legit question to the need of another device at all. I made a big purchase on my M1 Pro 16” MacBook a couple years ago, that’s my ”primary” device. But, I don’t have anything to play online games with anyone else (who run Windows machines), and there are actually...

I KNOW, in my brain, this laptop is a solid deal. I know, in my brain, a RTX 4070 will give me YEARS of viable gaming performance (especially at 1080p). The RAM and storage are upgradable, giving me future options. The screen is pretty mediocre, but the reviews say the actual technical...

Amazon has a preorder up for Spin Master's 85th Anniversary Batman 3 pack. Featuring Batman Returns (likely a rerun from the Batwing Set), The Dark Knight and Superman v Batman. It remains to be seen what other 85th Anniversary items Spin Master might have on tap...

Mark Maher posted more images of the Metalhawk redeco. That yellow plastic is GORGEOUS. But again, hard to justify the double dip on this, barring a really good sale https://news.tfw2005.com/2024/07/10/transformers-legacy-united-voyager-metalhawk-official-in-hand-images-behind-the-scenes-515181

As much as I abhor how Snyder has elevated the deification of Watchmen and The Dark Knight Returns as the pinnacle of the comics medium…at least his stuff had style and personality. Not to mention some really novel choices in actors. But the animation is the same, stiff, cel shaded CGI...

OMG, an episode where the Jedi are…CHARACTERS?! What nerve! The last couple episodes HAVE been good, and interesting, and it’s just sad we had to slog through 4, largely, boring ass episodes to get here. That’s been a prevailing issue with many Star Wars and most Marvel TV series. Disney...

Largely, but the developer did do some significant work with several level remixes and some new weapons and graphics. I think it's different enough to be interesting, but not different enough that I see anyone going out of their way to get the game back out on the Online Pass. If anything, I...

Creative ideas in Studio Series are FORBIDDEN!

Like i posted in the Star Wars thread, Entertainment Earth finally updated some upcoming product pages with pictures. For Marvel fans, the Spider-Man Battle in a Box page was updated...and they aren't even in a box! Two packs, Classic SM with Green Goblin, Miles with Vulture. Both villains are...

How about some info on new kids toys? Entertainment Earth has updated their preorder pages for the newest waves of Epic Hero products. Wave 2 single figures still have an unannounced slot, but along with Darth Vader and Mando being carried over, new figures are Bo Katan, Darth Maul and Moff...

But how many Siege Megatron variations do you have?

Meijer in Michigan has started putting out new TF One toys: https://news.tfw2005.com/2024/07/06/transformers-one-mainline-wave-1-prime-changers-vog-changers-found-at-us-retail-514946 Expect your local places to have product out towards the end of the month as stores gear up for the fall resets.

So, YouTube cycled in a promo video video from Trigger promoting the NEW Panty and Stocking series, which lead me down a wiki rabbit hole to discovering… Gainax is no more. I looked a couple of pages back and nobody seemed to comment on it, so here ya go...

Huh. My nearby Target must have gotten some solid case shipments. I remember when he was “active”, they somehow had nearly a dozen of him. WAY more than simply “leftover mixed cases” would justify (Twincast isn’t THAT popular). Hell, I don’t even think I SAW Twincast more than, maybe, once...

Nitpicking, yes, Hasbro did clearly do their homework on the deco being explicitly Orion Pax. But it’s also obvious that his pre-Prime design was derived from Stormbringer. Either way, it’s not a design I would have expected to see made into a toy in 2024 Also, Mark Maher snapped a couple of...
