  1. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    I have ZERO issues with a 4” GI Joe line. The issue I DO have is that (based on the context of the rumors), is with a “GI joe Vintage Collection”. I’m not sure it is good for the brand to be “slicing up” its collector base on Hasbro’s front. Moreover, after seeing how Hasbro handles Star Wars...

    I'll clarify my position on 4" later but... Walmart has GI Joe stuff on sale, including the WM exclusive Alley Viper Crimson Alley Viper- 11.97 Retro Baroness- 7.97 Retro Lady Jane- 4.97(!)

    I think even Hasbro was a bit surprised at the success of the HasLab vehicles, and that’s what is giving rise to GI Joe, effectively, getting a Titan caliber product category. I think that price point (and vehicles like the Thunder Machine, Snowcat, Slugger, Water Mocassin, STUN, Wolf, etc)...
  5. Studio Series 86 Appreciation Thread

    Guess this reveal kind of puts the kibosh on my little hope of getting a redeco’d Earthrise Optimus Prime in a retro G1 box (like the Headmaster Retro releases)

    More leaks before a presumed preorder launch next week, in package shots of Airborne, Action Sailor, Retro Duke and Scarlett. https://news.hisstank.com/2023/12/02/g-i-joe-classified-retro-scarlett-and-duke-with-airborne-first-package-shots-85360 Action Soldier and Big Boa package shots leaked...
  7. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    I think Super7 is acutely aware of the general response from the GI Joe fandom when it came to ReAction. I think they KNOW they could tap a not-insignificant pool of collectors by skewing closer to the original 80s toys. I suspect they’re hoping the increased volume will offset the increased...
  8. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    I imagine they’ll find a median in that. The Mothership Vipers show new tooling evocative of the original Viper (in the lower arms, waist and legs), rather than a straight recreation of the original. My “gut instinct” is that we’ll end up with something akin to how Classified and Ultimates...
  9. Playstation Thread.

    Also, if you have any digital purchases from the PS4 days (or, select PS1/PSP titles), they ARE linked to your account. I found an extra dozen games available to me because Sony FINALLY started to get all that stuff up and going for purchases I made a decade ago.
  10. Playstation Thread.

    For intents and purposes, Spider-Man: Homecoming is a Miles Morales film with a Peter Parker “overlay”. So that should help with some of the character contexts. And don’t forget Astro’s Playroom! For a free “tech demo”, it has enormous charm and a love for the PlayStation brand that Sony...
  11. Transformers Legacy toyline

    I’ve seen this crop up at several sites and in the “fan reissue request”…but I KNOW they’ve reissued Omega at LEAST twice since his original release, plus the Selects Guardian Robot. I’m still baffled that there remains THAT MUCH demand after all these runs AND a repaint. Especially for a...
  12. The new Transformers Deal Thread

    Hasbro has just launched their “season’s savings” event. Premium members get 35% off orders $75 and up with Cyber35, while non-premium members get 25% off orders $75 and up with Cyber25.
  13. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    I’ve largely backed off GI Joe, in general, until Hasbro can find a real “direction” for the brand, but I’ve been keeping tabs on Hiya’s stuff. There are utterly fascinating to me, in that they are clearly basing their work on the “initial designs” for Classified, not the “fandom approved”...
  14. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    Amazon has a number of GI Joe figures on sale. For Classified, several figures are marked down for Black Friday (With Stalker and the Twins still running under $15 each). But they are ALSO running a “Buy 2, Get 1 free” deal which includes a number of recent GI Joe figures: Shipwreck LowLight...

  16. Sony's Spider-Man Universe

    I’m going to call it now- All those snippets of the girls in full hero gear all come from a 5 minute “vision” and we won’t see anyone aside from evil Spider-man in costume the rest of the movie.
  17. Mayhems tangled mess of controler cords

    I haven’t been able to start playing, but it wouldn’t surprise me if a LOT of those little cheeky references weren’t edited or modified. Something even Nintendo (inadvertently?) highlighted was Valentina, who got a major boob reduction in the past 25 years and doesn’t jiggle when hit anymore...
