  1. The US Supreme Court and its decisions

    It only counts when it's convenient for the Republican agenda. This pregnant Essjaydubya shouldn't be even driving a car, she should be at home and leave politics to men, who obviously know better than her.
  2. New Amazon Listings for Transformers Collaborative Amazon Prime

    We speculated about this last year. Then Prime Day came and went, with nothing coming out of this. If nothing happens with this by next week, it's most likely dead in the water.
  3. New Amazon Listings for Transformers Collaborative Amazon Prime

    These listings have been there since last year. The product descriptions were found over a year ago. https://news.tfw2005.com/2021/06/28/transformers-collaborative-transformers-amazon-prime-mash-up-official-description-436399
  4. The German federal election thread

    While the US is proceeding to outlaw abortion, Germany is doing the exact opposite: Paragraph 219a of the German criminal code, which put rigid limitations on doctors "advertising" (legal) abortion practices they are offering, is finally being abolished entirely.

  9. The toy and packaging variation oddity, mystery and discovery thread

    Hey there, new member! Oh no, I've already featured the Euro Classics, so everything is fair game here! So this is another repeat from the pre-crash Allspark forums. In the United States, the Air Strike Patrol, Off Road Patrol and Race Car Patrol were released in very late 1988 as one of the...
  10. Mystery time: Canadian 1990 "Classic" Aerialbots and Stunticons?

    @Staff: Is it possible to lock this thread and move the two posts by Tuxedo Prime and The Supernova to this one, which has become a central hub for all sorts of toy and packaging oddities and also contains the Euro Classics images?

  15. The toy and packaging variation oddity, mystery and discovery thread

    Another rehash of something I posted on the old pre-crash Allspark forums: The Toys"R"Us exclusive "Commemorative Series" reissues have several international packaging variants and re-releases that are apparently confusing to some people. For clarification, we are talking about four different...
