As far as the sword discrepancies, Ive seen people comment how these are actually the prototype pics that mattel used when these origins figures were released the first time. Yeah, i got those guys for dirt cheap too.

This guy was the emperor in the italian micronauti line and lord meto in the interchangable line from the 80s. Hope super 7 isnt planning on upcharging $5 for the vacmetal

They are almost exactly the same size as Super7 Ultimates. So bigger than Black Series and Legends. I have to imagine this was done on purpose. I'm sorry I can't find the pics showing this again.

I imagine that once all 12 Bridge pieces are completed, this set is going to be huge (and quite expensive to complete). How many folks have that kind of space to display it? Unfortunately, I was anticipating the Nacelle Star Trek figures... until I realized the scale will be 1:10 (8+ inches?) rather than 1:12 (6+ inches). I really would have loved to have integrated them with my Star Wars Black series and other 1:12 figures. Oh well.

I wonder if this will go over as well as the Playmates movie bridge pieces did.

Shown below is a for the new Micronauts Lord Meto ReAction+ Figure from Super7. When more information is available we will be sure to let you know.

According to Chris at Full Force and the breakdown of retailer listings, the Cobra La Royal Guard should be a main line deluxe figure

Yeah, those heads look weird to me. A few years ago I bought Flying Fists He-Man and Terror Claws Skeletor when I saw them cheap at Big Lots just so I could swap the heads and get the full Power Swords, which, oddly, these images show He-man with the full sword, but Skeletor with the half sword...

This reminds me of Battleship, although at least in Battleship there was a Battleship. But you're right. Why buy the IP at all?

Why would this even be a thing? why make a Matchbox Movie, which has nothing to do with the toyline? this could be any movie, so why even bother using an IP like Matchbox when you are not even going to try, pure stupid, it wouldn't have been hard to actually make a Matchbox movie....here I'll do it. A group of grown ups who used to be really good friends as kids who were outsiders amongst their piers found everlasting friendships and bonds through their love of playing with Matchbox toys, they had a Matchbox car club, it ment everything to them, and they each had their own "special car" they kept forever, as time went on naturally they grew apart, but when one strange night one of the friends son's wishes upon a star that his dad's favourite toy Matchbox car was real! (because how much dad loves it and was just fired from his job, and he wants to bring his dad some joy, which he gets from the memories of his toy car) and so happens magic...and it becomes a real car, the man is amazed, and quickly gets the attention of his old friends to bring about a reunion, after contacting them he comes to find out, all of the friends favorite Matchbox car has become a real car!, but Oh No an evil corporation finds out about this "magic' occurence and begins to seek out the friends and their magic cars, so they can harness the magic for evil corporate bad guy stuff, ....oh the cars also telepathically talk to their owners... Yay Matchbox movie. Now was that so hard? also hey if you want to hire me this could ALSO be the Hotwheels movie...

I'd feel better about announcements like this if they could actually get their first wave of Star Trek figures to ship. Mine were delayed yet again (presumably still related to the QC issues).

G.I. Joe had its Flagg since 1985. Barbie had her Dream House since 1962. MOTU had its Eternia playset since 1986. Just shy of the 60th anniversary, Nacelle is excited to announce that work has begun on a full 1/10th scale original Constitution-class USS Enterprise bridge play set! No pre-sale info or pricing info to share just yet, but stay tuned for more details!

I know this is a joke, but as a movie figure collector and knowing Hasbro's regular quality for figures... this is just wonderful news and I'm hopeful to what's coming

Im guessing they went with the original origins head because it kind of resembles the actor. Not a fan of that head but good move for mattel i think. And yeah, for a while these guys were plentiful and cheap for collectors. So im sure a lot of us have multiples already.

HBO is developing a Baldur’s Gate TV series based on Wizards of the Coast’s acclaimed video game franchise, with Craig Mazin—co-creator of The Last Of Us—serving as creator, writer, executive producer, and showrunner for this adaptation. Chris Perkins, formerly Head of Story at Wizards of the Coast (a Hasbro subsidiary known for the Dungeons & Dragons universe), will act as a consultant. The Baldur’s Gate TV series will continue the story beyond the events of Baldur’s Gate 3, exploring how both returning and new characters grapple with the consequences that follow. With no concurrent Baldur’s Gate game in development, Mazin has latitude regarding the direction of the story, allowing for an expanded format more typical of traditional television series, as opposed to being constrained by pre-existing source material. The series intends to be ongoing, drawing primarily from the narrative arc of Baldur’s Gate 3. However, certain thematic elements shared across the other previous titles and rooted in Dungeons & Dragons lore will be incorporated, consistent with Mazin’s agreement with Wizards of the Coast.

It's cool that Mattel does that for casual collectors, so that two of the most important figures are always available at retail. Good to coincide with the movie too. I remember these two being everywhere, in great numbers and even snagging a few for $3-5 each - but there is a contingent of shoppers who will never turn to the secondary market and if it's not at retail they just won't get it.

Yeah, um, what the heck is that and who okayed that design?

Given that the Royal Guard is already being shown in package, my guess is that it is a Pulse exclusive of some kind, rather than a convention exclusive (like SDCC -- there was no Pulsecon last year).

Toy fair......nothing has been announced as happening yet though....just assumptions

I think the royal guard looks great like pythona, his colors look better than nemessises did and given it's the same packaging I believe it'll be the sdcc or pulsecon exclusive and available to buy instead of p.o since they're already in hand as well. I couldn't care less about ninja farce zartan, I was over gi joe after 89, I do have heavy duty and some of the later guys but that's just an ugly figure lol can't wait for zanya and the skier though(hopefully they're big enough for zartan)

Hasbro recently announced it had acquired several major licenses, including Street Fighter and Voltron, briefly sending collectors into a familiar state of panic. Other toy companies were declared "finished", collections were mourned prematurely, and YouTube thumbnails were designed at record speed... BUT WAIT! It's only for the upcoming movie versions... ToyFarce investigated... Excitement quickly cooled once collectors realized Hasbro hadn't secured the license, just the movie version. You know, the one that hasn't come out yet, doesn't have a trailer, and may or may not be remembered fondly six months after release. "It's still a win" said a Hasbro representative, holding what appeared to be a participation trophy engraved with *BASED ON AN UPCOMING LIVE ACTION FILM*. "Sure, Jada Toys and Storm Collectibles will still make the game versions everyone loves, but we get the versions from a movie that hasn't disappointed anybody yet. It's exciting. Remember the last american Street Fighter movie?" Collectors were unsure how to react: "At first I thought this meant Jada Toys and Storm Collectibles were done..." said one fan, looking at a shelf of Street Fighter figures that are very much still in production. "Then I read 'movie version only' and felt... less concerned." The confusion continued when Hasbro also announced it had acquired the Voltron license, but again, strictly tied to an upcoming movie. Meanwhile, Playmates, Threezero, and Blitzway will continue releasing Voltron toys based on designs people actually recognize. "It's like winning the license, but only the least favorite version of it" said an industry insider. "Everyone else gets the legacy. Hasbro gets the limited-time emotional attachment". Collectors remain cautioulsy optimistic: "I think this one will be good..." said a collector, convincing himself. "They've learned from the last few times. Probably." At press time, collectors were reassuring themselves that this time will be different, while quietly familiarizing themselves with their local clearance aisles. More news at 11:00... Is the "movie version" like the participation trophy version of a license? *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!

Thanks a lot You won't regret it!
