I think it's more an issue to the fact Hasbro doesn't "own" Sgt. Slaughter, and therefore doesn't want a sub team concept associated with a person/character they don't own. The last time we got Slaughters Marauders was in 2011 as part of a retailer exclusive.

That’s the main issue with the entire franchise in terms of merchandising. People have seen them, generally like them…but aren’t invested into the franchise enough to want more than Indy and maybe a couple of side characters. I’m already seeing pegs full of Marion, Sallah and Belloc choking...

I can see the value in some of these repacks in keeping more accessible characters reasonably available. That said, I was a little surprised to hear Hasbro referring to Evolution up to wave 4…when it still isn’t clear if the distribution issues have been cleared up. I STILL have seen wave 2...

Because most of these so-called “Christians” don’t actually read the Bible. They just listen to their pastor or TV personality and ASSUME what they say is (or is not) in the Bible to be true. There is blind faith, and then there is blinded BY faith. And too many people are asking for the...

As I called, a number of fans are unhappy due to MANY “elephants in the room” not being addressed. Given the complaints, it Was like a zoo’s worth of elephants, apparently. Onto the reveals, they name dropped Snow Serpent, Buzzer and female Cobra Trooper. Again, given the sheer volume of...

So, if it wasn’t obvious, Legacy got wave 4 axed. Shouldn’t be surprising given wave 3 will barely make it out in 2022 (and YMMV in that regard) The leakers put forth the original idea was that wave 4 was going to be Breakdown (to complete Menasor) with reships of Wheeljack and Cheetor. So, I...

Steevy’s big post of thoughts! In regards to the Magic cards…I don’t play the game, but I’m totally game for some of them as toys. “G1” Slicer and SG Prowl in particular. I’ve felt the “Mexi-Prowl” deco was a great venue to get the Earth Prowl back out, and if he’s SG, I can deal with that...

Hasbro snagged the Indy license for a second go. They revealed the first batch of stuff today at Pulsecon. The obviously didn’t show the potentially interesting and fun “World of Adventure”. The kid style described as being a parallel product similar to Star Wars Mission Fleet. We’re already...

But, y’know, he might have to wait until 2024 to buy the retro CC as a single release. *rolleyes* ANYWAY, I’m eager to get my order in on Falcon and Serpentor. Given my age, the animated film was a big part of my “Joe media package” (along with the Serpentor and Dragonfire mini series) when I...

To be fair, if the dormant volcano UNDER the geysers goes, more than Yellowstone is going to be toast. Or if you live in the Midwest when the New Madrid fault line finally rips a 8+ magnitude quake in a region that hasn’t had a major earthquake in two centuries. Climate change has caused the...

Dangit, why must superhero films like The Batman be so dang realistic.

New reveals! https://news.toyark.com/2022/09/30/hasbro-pulsecon-2022-marvel-panel-recap-484725 I had to preorder the Capcom Iron Man. Even if they misnamed his PROTON CANNON! Hasbro has, not so subtlety said that they have intentions to complete the "modern yellow and blue" X-Men squad...

GI Joe is first thing tomorrow afternoon. Hasbro has announced over a dozen names that are "in the pipeline" with Tripwire and Hawk announced today. I can barely tolerate to go to a certain forum named after a Cobra Vehicle, I KNOW these people aren't THAT new to collecting. But the...

Well, we DID just get Ransack via the Creatures Collide set. Maybe he was planned for a Selects release or something and got bumped to an exclusive?

Art analysis: From L to R on the top: I see an Animated Space bridge, Breakdown (Legacy Series 1 refugee), Armada Optimus Prime, Laser Prime below a Quintesson cruiser and the Nemesis cruiser. Below that:Leo Prime, Needlenose, Initial Impression was Tarn....but there's more going on there...

Lugnut won the Animated fan vote! Something in the world is right! It's GLORIOUS!

Hmmm....the Magic section revealed a "non-Shattered Glass" Slicer...which looks EXACTLY like Armada Wheeljack, minus sporting the classic Wheeljack head. A tease, perhaps?

I think there might be a disconnect between the hosts and a good chunk of the fans. I feel like an old man trying to watch something aimed younger. But are we "juiced" for today? (Where's that Buscemi gif?)

Shot, given how things have been going, I frankly wouldn’t be surprised if aliens might be involved at this point… I, for one, would welcome our extraterrestrial overlords.

And I guarantee that too damn many across all the fandoms are VASTLY overblowing what each is apt to see. We might get some names and renders for PART of Evolution, but given they still have Toy Fair in February and the first wave of Evolution won’t be at retail until early summer (at the...
