    Hasbro possibly doing Tron?

    Hasbro has a new price on the MTO Sentinels of $220, up from the original $175, for a 25% increase. (I am assuming they will be honoring the $175 preorder price, and have reset it for any excess stock they intend to put up for sale). I point that out as I think it lends credence that this Tron...

    Chicken Fried Toys/Dime Novel Legends

    Update - supposedly the special store for the backers will be opening soon - asking everyone to update their information in Kickstarter so they can create accounts that will be allowed to access it. Once open, backers will have 45 days to use their credits before they raise prices and open it up...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    I wonder if mass retail passed on this wave or if it was always assumed to be fan channel? Because if mass retail passed on a wave with Wolverine, Spidey and IM versions, that is kind of shocking honestly.

    Hasbro Made-to-Order Figures

    That is interesting, tariff impact I am sure. Wonder how much that is costing them on the existing preorders...

    The Official Articulated Thoughts Baseball Thread

    Pleasantly surprised how the Mariners have done against the Blue Jays so far. I was hoping for a split at best. Do not want to feel confident as work to do, but obviously M's in a great position. Umpire had a very poor strike zone, at various points I think Kirby "walked" a batter when he...

    Just saving the accurate colors for the inevitable Warbow re-release.

    Continuing my MCU rewatch

    I watched that scene again and she is so supportive and concerned, and he is so clearly feeling better after the talk, that I feel the "eat a salad" line is just a typical Mom line like "clean your room" and is barely even a joke but a worst a slight rib - more about a parent believing in her...

    Continuing my MCU rewatch

    Or, people who have a healthy, caring relationship can poke a little fun at each other with mildly snarky comments and have no malice behind it. Or use a joke to serve as a little nudge to remind someone who they are as well.

    Continuing my MCU rewatch

    I feel like that is the ending from Thor Love and Thunder, plus he has added the responsibility to have a family and be a Dad.

    Continuing my MCU rewatch

    I think a Book of Bruce Banner like show, maybe from the perspective of The End Hulk, would be interesting to backfill Banner leaving Earth and ending up a Gladiator, Banner/Hulk becoming Smart Hulk, etc., got into the future as Banner realizes he is going to outlive everyone, etc... It is the...

    I'm just going to believe that Kermit is reporting from inside and has politely taken his hat off.

    The Official AT Wrestling Thread

    I recommend finding the Cena v Styles matchup from the Crown Jewel in Perth - lots of callbacks and homages to the last 20+ years of wrestling as they both used many famous finishers from their past opponents. Great stuff I thought, and a lot of fun.

    General Marvel Legends

    Wasn't Ryan the brand manager for Legends? Essentially I think he would have had final say (within the team and within reason) on what the line would focus on, what types of products and characters to include, how to balance the expenses and production budget. He would always have been Dwight's...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    Some of this comes to what draws us in as collectors - for properties based on an IP like Marvel, I am buying figures that represent the comics I liked and read. I expect most are as well, but maybe not - its great that the toy line introduces people to comics they otherwise knew nothing about...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    This has been an issue forever. I've never really appreciated as a collector - or understood from the business side - Hasbro's lack of plan to complete teams from specific eras, and honestly I think it has to come back and hurt them - How many collectors who wanted to get the matching male...

    Hasbro possibly doing Tron?

    Probably a fair assessment of the retail cost. Given the detail on the paint apps for the figures, I think they could be like the Boba Fett's that come in at closer to $25 retail, with the bikes then $40 to $50. To me the base isn't a big selling point, it is just adding to the cost but not...

    Star Trek

    Did they have any comparisons to the Art Asylum figures? TNG and OS were never exactly the same scale I felt, OS was 6" and TNG was 7", right? I too am hoping that they can deliver, so far what they are proposing has been great and doing the main cast in a single wave makes all kinds of...

    Well, I am not not even close to local Seattle - long story but I started following the Seahawks, Mariners, Sounders (NASL version) and Sonics (RIP) from New Jersey in the late 70's as a kid, and have stuck with them ever since. I sort of split allegiance with the Philly teams which I...

    In case anyone cares, the Mariners have a mascot race that consists of 4 Salmon - The Salmon Run. https://www.mlb.com/mariners/fans/salmon-run The Salmon are King, Sockeye, Silver and Humpy. Humpy had never won. But tonight before the 15th inning, the Salmon Run occurred for a second time in...

    Skurge the Executioner BAF Wave

    My initial thought for both Crystar and Warbow (I had to look up the character when it was first rumored, and had forgotten once again who the character was and had to look it up again on this reveal. I suspect a year from now when I have this figure in some box of figures I mean to sell I will...

    BAF Waves - Themed or Mixed?

    I thought the BAF concept should have been killed years ago. Once they stopped shipping full cases so that places like Target, Amazon etc. could buy solid cases to make it easier to fulfill online shopping orders. Once that happened, I hate to think about how much excess plastic was used for BAF...

    I wonder if Frazzle is a chase/variant/exclusive based on Herry? Definitely reuse on the torso and arms.
