1. Granted, but it feels like Nintendo has already pushed back an update/revision/new iteration of the hardware for some time now. I legit feel that the OLED update was supposed to be part of a broader update that got scrapped due to continued strong sales and issues related to the pandemic...

The first trailer is out. LOVE the pulpy feel they got going on. It really does feel a bit like what Bruce Timm and the like would have LIKED to have done with Batman back in the 90s.

Nintendo has always “done their own thing”, especially post-GameCube. That said, I think it is becoming increasingly noticeable that developers are hitting the limits of the hardware, making already lower power hardware look even weaker. There have even been a number of recent Nintendo titles...

Because they didn't sell. It's been implied that was the reason the Core class was developed- to offer a small Transformers offering in the $10-13 range

Challenge of the Gobots will premiere on MeTV Toons THIS SATURDAY! ....At very early in the morning https://www.metvtoons.com/shows/challenge-of-the-gobots Also, here's the full the catalog of active shows on the schedule. One of the low-key additions seems to be a number of Gerry Anderson's...

The “G1 Crew” set and the Gobots 3 pack are marketed under Generations Selects. I just kind of get the feeling that Selects got a bit backburnered by the sheer volume of retails slots Hasbro’s been trying to fill, between stuff like the Walmart and Amazon capsule lines and Target’s Buzzworthy...

I would be willing to call that a “context issue” rather than an overt play to appease Trump. He did NOT, in fact, say “White Supremecists/Neo Nazis are very fine people”. He used the term for BOTH sides of the protest (Which, by virtue of one side BEING predominantly of that group, lead to...

LAST I HEARD it was said these would be retailing for the same as other ReAction figures (so, $20). My cynical side is saying closer to $25. I view them tolerable at $25, a solid value at $20 given the current state of retail (the closest analogy to Reaction+ would be Vintage Collection, which...

Also, I wonder if this has any bearing… https://iatse.net/workers-at-icon-creative-studio-are-fighting-for-union-representation/ Note: It appears that Icon DID complete unionization efforts a couple weeks ago.

Yeah, when you have, effectively, THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION STAFF of a show replaced, that is a HUGE red flag. Given how many of the creative staff were industry veterans (many of the Transformers franchise itself), I can’t help but point to someone at Nick/Paramount being the issue, but given...

The first offerings of Super7’s O-ring line, dubbed “Reaction+”, has been revealed with prototype images from The Full Force podcast. I’m linking to the Hisstank thread featuring mirror images for those who don’t want to go to X...

You should know how this works by this point… They’ll announce a premium deco/extra special version with all the bells and whistles AFTER you get the basic deluxe version :p

Prolific Leaker JtPrime has confirmed that Earthspark is basically "done" with the replacement line already being solicited to retailers for release in 2025 https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/core-class-disappearing-earthspark-replacement.1264286/

The second batch of 1 step Cog Changers got press images posted. Still not clear if this will be one big wave, or we're seeing two waves releasing at the same time. Second batch is Sentinel Prime, Megatron and Optimus Prime...

Mark Maher put up a transformation video of the new G1 Optimus Prime. It is literally the original with some extra flair. Again, for those that couldn't justify the Missing Link price...I think this will be MORE than serviceable (assuming all those accessories make the cut)...

Oh lawd, Caldwin, you're gonna get a rant out of me! :p First, the clearance price is more reflective of the limited amount of time retailers are giving this stuff to sell. X-Men was only planned to sell this past year (presumably, Hasbro was told X-Men 97 would run in the fall before Disney...

Preorders went up today for the Pulse exclusive Marauders 2 pack and the Fan Channel Marauders Sgt. Slaughter as well as the Stinger. Hasbro held an unboxing of the Stinger and slipped in special preview: Nemesis Immortal! He looks GORGEOUS. And the special packaging points to an Event...

New Direct dropped today. A REALLY strong showing, all considered. That said, you can see where the Switch market (or at least what Nintendo feels the market is) oriented around with a LOT of RPGs and "life sim" titles. I'm not going to cover the entire presentation, but I do have thoughts on...
