So, anyone still buying Spin Master's solid little "kids toys"? While looking up the Black Adam toy line (see the movie thread for those details), found some interesting stuff about the other lines. First off, The Batman is done, so a lot of retailers are starting to clear them out in favor of...

Spin Masters actually has a modest little product line for this movie! About on par with The Batman, it's still a better showing than most of Hasbro's recent MCU stuff or how they've been handling Star Wars the last few years. The central focus is a 4" line akin to what they've been doing for...

I think the last time we had a major “action figure event”, the surprise sell outs and insane demand from parents and kids, was probably Transformers 2007. Maybe Avengers in 2012. The Force Awakens had a lot of hype (and HUGE buy in), but actual results kind of fizzled out pretty damn quick...

You like Marvel? You like classic Universal Monsters? They just dropped their "Halloween Special" trailer, which is based on Werewolf by Night. I'm sure there are a bunch of supernatural Marvel characters getting cameos in here I don't recognize : Oh hey! It's Man-Thing!

I was so thrilled when I saw that some recent games like the Uncharted Collection had a “Story Mode” or “Narrative Mode” with reduced difficulty so people (like me) who are in it for the story can do so without being bogged down by sucking at the gameplay.

Yeah, as an adult with an income and easy Internet access, collecting is the easiest it has EVER been for me. But if I were a kid? We are all here because these brands spoke to us. Maybe it was the exaggerated designs of MOTU and TMNT. Maybe it was the stories of GI Joe or Batman. Maybe the...

New toys have been revealed for the franchise (not, explicitly, this particular film). Most seemed to assume Hasbro would be involved, but that has turned out to not be the case. And for sure Mattel wasn’t about to touch this after the mess the first film product line ended up being. McFarlane...

Any guesses on how long it takes before some of these council members end up “suicided”? For reference, over half a dozen top level businessmen (and often their families) have been found dead in the last 6 months. All had major ties to the Russian Energy sector and many decried the invasion of...

New trailer has been posted, featuring Hawaiian vacation Abomination and a good bit with Daredevil, including his recolored suit.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FdQblg-kQU

Have you not heard how large Trump's re-election war chest has gotten? Last I heard it was some 300 million. Mostly from "smaller donors".

Yeah, ReAction skews closer to the late 70s/early 80s style of 3.75 figures, mostly "Kenner" styled. Even the first couple years of GI Joe, even with the added articulation, skewed closer to that style in aesthetics (at least until they upped their sculpting game around 1985). An issue I've...

IS it now….

I figured I’d open this thread up stuff beyond my own major purchase, but anyway: After having my iMac since summer 2016, Apple has declared it “vintage” and the current OS update (Monterey) is the last one I’m eligible for. So, time to start shopping for a new Mac (what can I say, I like the...

That’s why you read the instructions first :p

It’s the quiet, weasel, types you should watch the closest. Not the blow hard grabbing everyone’s attention…

The National Archives already reported that they had received numerous classified documents that lacked those sorts of folder covers. It'll probably take months, maybe even years, to collate the material to discover what MIGHT have been lost or leaked. Not saying this isn't a MASSIVE issue...

That's MY idea! https://www.allspark.com/forums/threads/after-the-velocitron-5000-next-walmart-line.980/#post-49759 :p

Some off the top of my head: Platinum Dinobots Set (the AoE guys with G1 headsculpts, the non-con silver versions) for $50 at Ross Wave 1 Titans Return Deluxes for $2 a pop (when they were new!) Wave 1 Legacy Deluxes for $13 each I guess PotP Outback and Cindersaur for $2 each?

I’m not going to count on new tooling. I still don’t grasp how Hasbro was able to finagle TWO, completely new, molds into an exclusive line like this. I’m also not sure the “planet theming” is a sure thing. At the very least, I think it limits options. I’ve got two ideas rattling around: 1...

I'd buy it again in a heartbeat if they got rid of the damn stickers
