  1. Pixar’s Starcom toys aka Lightyear toys

    Entertainment Earth has posted new preorders for more Lightyear stuff. Mattel is doing a shockingly nifty job with this line. For the 5" fans, an iteration of the Armadillo Transport will be available, along with a Star Command Base...
  2. Transformers Legacy toyline

    The Energon canister is a nifty addition, and I’m eager to see the the weapons in better detail. But like the Energy rods included with Origins Bumblebee…their novelty is really dang limited since only a select few figures can even hold those sorts of accessories. And that feature has been...
  3. SquareEnix ditches the West.

    Fixed that for ya :p ALL of the franchises cited in the sale had relatively high profile reboots over the past decade, and all were cited as "failing to meet expectations". Despite selling several million units each. I'm sure their screw up with the Marvel IP was a factor, but SquareEnix...
  4. The Batman Will Rise in March 2022!

    That's a clear throwback to what Shirley Walker did with Batman TAS. Something else is that I felt the film struck that nice "timeless" angle. Yes, everyone is using cellphones, but you also have cops that look like they stepped out of the 70s (for a VAST majority of the country, cops do NOT...
  5. Florida, Florida, Florida

    So, it seems at least some Florida residents realize that DeSantis's little spat with Disney would have VERY expensive consequences. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/florida-residents-sue-desantis-over-the-disney-dont-say-gay-debacle/1100-6503124/
  6. Moon Knight On Disney Plus

    And the last scene of the series seems to play into that. Heck of a way to set up another season. Also dig that Jake seems modeled after another TV/film character. Just what was shown feels a bit like a pastiche of 70s era foreign thrillers and spy dramas.
  7. SquareEnix ditches the West.

    To be fair, they’ve bought a lot, but they aren‘t a HUGE player in any one market. I mean, if nobody has put up much of a fight against Microsoft’s Activision purchase or Disney’s purchase of Fox…Embracer is pretty small potatoes in that regard. Embracer has been buying a lot of little things...
  8. What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Hopefully this is the slap in the face some of these fools need to see what their party as really become. Conservatives have been fighting against that law for decades. And in those decades they’ve manipulated, lied, and gerrymandered their way into being in control regardless of what...
  9. SquareEnix ditches the West.

    SquareEnix has decided that instead of being a game company, they want to invest in things like Blockchain, AI and "the cloud". To further that direction, they've decided to sell a significant chunk of their western studios and properties. Embracer Group spent a paltry $300 million to acquire...
  10. 2022 Celebrity Death Thread

    This is one of the sadder deaths to me in terms of comics. His work on Batman was one of the quintessential runs, so important that his stylings would define the character's look for decades. It's a degree of impact few can lay claim to (others being John Romita's work on Spider-Man and Jim...

    That’s what my closet looks like!
  12. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    Still have no idea what happened with the online crap. According to their records, it WAS purchased from my Switch, so I guess someone in the house used it to purchase the online pass? I'm legit not sure who since I have the my switch tucked away. Talked to Nintendo, said they would convert...
  13. The Nintendo Thread of Jumping, Slashing, and Home Decorating

    Well, WTF Nintendo? Last year, I turned off automatic renewal for my Switch Online. I just wasn’t using it and it should have been expired last year. Now, for some reason, I got a notification that my subscription renewed for Online PLUS the Expansion pass?! I’m going to check my system, but...
  14. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    Hasbro held a round table after their live stream, offered some clarifications and minor updates: https://news.hisstank.com/2022/04/28/g-i-joe-product-team-roundtable-4-28-2022-77389 Kamakura and the Blue Ninja 2 pack will be Amazon exclusives. Snake Eyes with Timber (redeco) will be a...
  15. Generations Selects Appreciation Thread

    So there is... I guess it's a testament to how well we're being treated and just how well Cyclonus turned out that both come across as fantastic. I'm just at a loss as to whether to sell my existing Kingdom Cyclonus (and all his show accurate glory) to get this new one (with that GORGEOUS...
  16. Sony's Spider-Man Universe

    As said, the Guardians floated around for decades. And after the successful 2008 revamp, they started to "leak" into other media. Before the film came out, Hasbro was already hitting the 2008 characters in the Marvel Heroes 3.75" line. Marvel gave them cameos in almost all the in product...
  17. Moon Knight On Disney Plus

    But what was in the other Sarcophagus?! Series/Season finale is next week!
  18. Generations Selects Appreciation Thread

    Well, with Galvatron, I didn't even worry about the stickers. As I remarked in the past, my original, vintage, Galvatron never had most of his stickers applied to begin with (I actually found the sticker sheet years later) because, as a kid, i thought he looked better without them. I'm really...
  19. G.I. Joe thread - 09/13/2024: Pulsecon - Dreadnoks, Dogs and Cereal

    So..since I’m sure you all are (Not) waiting for my thoughts: The Sgt. Slaughter news just hits me all in the right places. The peak collector interest and limited runs cut me out of the 25th Slaughter and Zarana, so it’s nice to see Hasbro finally address these issues (over a decade later…)...
