Meanwhile, the small island state of Kiribati that had been isolated since the beginning of the pandemic allowed the first airplane to enter the country. All passengers were vaccinated, all made three separate Covid tests before taking off. Upon landing, 36 tested positive, and an emplyoee of...

In Germany too? Because we also have T.K. Maxx.

Update: Apparently her family was vaccinated and only had mild symptoms. She thought she could skip the prick and just go through the infection since her family members only had mild symptoms... because they were vaccinated. Her son publicly blames anti-vaxxers for her death.

So some Czech musician who deliberately sought out a Covid infection from her family so she could circumvent the need to get vaccinated died from her infection and oh my god these stories just. Don't. End.

What? There are no "copyrights" on names (you're thinking of trademarks), and copyrights on characters surely don't expire that quickly (and once they do, they're gone, finished). Also, trademarks being under threat of expiring every few years if they don't get used in commerce is an ongoing...

How come we're not discussing this yet? Over the past few months, Russia has moved a large number of troops near the Ukrainian border. Although they insist they don't have any intention to invade, there have been talks between the US and Russia during which Russia has made bold demands, such as...

All of these are by the same company. They're just released in different markets. Same story here: International man of mystery. And who doesn't know this? Or this? Me personally, I'm familar with this chain, but I assume many of you think there's a wrong letter in the name. Just to...

They're out in Singapore and Taiwan, so tomorrownextweekmonthish.

During Beast Wars, there were three different concurrent types of trilingual packaging in use, in addition to the English-only packaging that was available in the United States: Canada and Latin America got packaging in English, French and Spanish, with the triple title "Beast Wars/Guerre des...

Don't give the QAnon morons any new ideas...

This just popped up at TFW2005:

This was originally part of of my 1995 retrospective (insofar as it related to the barely-released redeco, ATB Megatron) I posted on the old pre-crash Allspark a few years ago, but I've recently made some additional discoveries that have prompted me to revisit this particular subject: This is...

I think I started a thread on this when the Allspark boards were briefly back up before they went bust for the second time. I found several photos of the 1990 "Classic Stunticon" release of G1 Breakdown (and only him!) in bilingual French/English packaging. Supposedly, this was intended for...

By the way, it turns out that those Tiny Tins Mini-Cons qualify as another case of a multi-brand assortment, since they share an assortment number (47668) with the Robots in Disguise Tiny Tin Spy Changers. In Europe, they even all shared the same EAN barcode (5023117706783), since at the time...

I'm actually quite shocked to find out you people are actually still using cotton masks at all. Here in Germany, those were officially declared useless about a year ago! Everyone here (except for the anti-maskers) is using either medical masks or FFP2 (our equivalent to your N95) now.

Someone on TFWiki claims that the Australian 1991 reissue of G1 Blaster actually came in a "Classic"-style gold box: https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Talk:Classics_(Europe) I need to see that.

In case anyone here speaks Chinese, I would like some clarification regarding these: Which markets were they available in? Mainland China? Taiwan?
