The line would have done a lot better had. They released Kirk Spock and whatever else character from The Original Series, in addition to not making anything after Voyager. Nobody buys Discovery stuff, I suspect that CBS has some kind of stipulation with the license that these companies have to produce unpopular product just to get access to a popular product.

The Art Asylum figures are still the best ever made IMO.

I ended up preordering 3 big boas. One for my cobra/dreadnok display, one for my work desk (where i have a display of random figures on there) and a 3rd to keep MIB. Also, since I really dug those vs. Quick Kick pics...I got a hold of the ML comic Shang-Chi lol. Imo, it looks better than the Quick kick figure.

Thundertron is a unique addition to the Legacy line and shows how deep Hasbro is willing to pull. Transformation is fairly simple but I am concerned about the strain on the mushroom pegs all the twisting will cause over time. The Lion and robot modes feature a striking blue-and-white color scheme that I quite enjoy. View the full article

If you zoom in on the packaged picture, it looks like their is articulation after all. Which would've been nice if they'd shown in the initial photos, as that was the one reason I was holding off on getting it.

I have the Office ones

I honestly don't think that I've ever seen a Jokerized style figure in the wild at retail. I feel like the Jokerized stuff is normally a Target exclusive, although this appears to also be available on EE, which is usually Blacklight or Sketch variants. Either my Super Target doesn't order them or they sell out before my weekly runs. I'm assuming they don't order them. I tend to see the Walmart exclusives like the DC vs Vampires stuff but never see the Target stylized versions like this locally. I'd likely only ever pick up something like this at under $10 - but doing these lets Todd tell DC that he's putting out a high number of figures per year, even if a lot of them are just repaints of existing figures with no new tooling whatsoever.

Does anyone actually buy these things; figures based off sitcoms?

Exactly, there's a reason their nostalgia bait figures sell great but they're more 'serious' figures don't. The Undercover movie Leo & Mikey figures have been sitting on the shelf at my local Walmart for ages, and I'd buy them if they'd hurry up and release Donnie and Raph, but for the most part, people don't want their less accurate 'collector' figures when Neca and Super7 are also producing figures of the characters with higher accuracy and quality. Not to mention how the brand seems to be everywhere now. DC Direct, Hasbro, and Mattel have all produced, or will soon produce, TMNT figures in various crossover lines. The other thing is kids. TMNT has had content for kids almost constantly since the 80s. In the past 36 years, the only years without a TMNT movie or TV show were 1999-2002, 2010-2011, 2021-2022. 8 years out of 36. So even without collector's lines, they've had kids lines going to still move product. Star Trek, meanwhile, while having something of a child audience, has rarely been specifically AIMED at children. Sure there was Prodigy, but I don't know how popular that was with kids, and I never saw merch of it in the stores even though I know Playmates produced it.

Not sure what that Superman is based on; clearly not the box art artist. It looks like a nod to Gary Frank. If so, during that timeline Superman did not have wrist bands on his sleeves, his belt had the classic circular buckle, there were belt loops, and most importantly, he had his yellow 'S' emblem on the back of his cape. This is basically just another lazy repaint and I really expect better of someone who's a legend in the comic community.

Some new pieces added to the collection and changes I made to some shelves. To mention a few parts: I was missing a joker in the Figz series and I realized that I had not completed it for a long time. The set of 4 is now complete. I mentioned before that there are no tin toys in my collection. The hobby of toy collecting, which I started in the 90s, was replaced by toy collecting culture and museum mentality in 2009-2010. For this reason, I add the pieces I choose and want to the collection in every field. I finally added the first original piece to the tin toy section, an area where I was late. A tin police vehicle made in China from the 1970s. I can say that its condition is really good. There are a few scratches, but luckily there is no yellowing. Another toy that I think is one of the important and interesting pieces for my collection is Kilpikonna. An old, unbranded Ninja Turtles toy. Made by South Korea. I think it is a series produced for Finland. Tweety and Pound were added to the collection for the Space Jam series. I also bought a hotwheels toy box and put some toys in it that I didn't have room to display. Thank you.

Shown below is a preview look at the new Masters of the Universe 1/6 Scale Terrow Claws Skeletor Figure from Mondo. From this one photo Skeletor appears to be in his "Disco" Skeletor color scheme! Stay Tuned as more info should be coming from Designer-Con, December 13th-15th!

New additions to the collection

Santa Hat Violator is what sells it for me. I actually just bought my first Fresh Monkey figure earlier today. Decided to snag that Zombie Santa before he's gone!

Bingo! Thanks for the feature!

I pre-ordered the Batzarro/Bizarro 2-pack but am passing on Classic Supes, Nightwing and Jokerized Red Robin. I've just never been a fan of that costume for Nightwing. Between the Atomic Skull 2-pack version, the Doomsday 2-pack version and the upcoming one with Krypto, I think that I'm good on Supes at this point (not to mention the DKR and Death Metal versions that I also already have). Now if they had done a 2-pack with a Lois similar to the artwork on the card and packaging then I probably would have purchased that.

Ah I was right, Super Patriot Toxie Variant, does look pretty cool, but Naaah, I'm not even American!

These are insanely rad, but too expensive for me, don't wanna dip into another Dinosaur people line, since I'm already collecting Suazoic Warriors, I love how this orange dude without the clothes on is soooo almost Stegron, just needed some armored plates on the back and tail...oh so close, would have been maybe a buy if it was for a Marvel Stegron on my shelf, still hoping Hasbro makes a Stegron someday.

It's a shame, but Playmates 100% screwed themselves on this. If they wanted to do retro figures, fine, but that should've been a secondary line that was more like the original 90's figures, and with the main line being a 6" more detailed/more articulated Star Wars Black Series/Marvel Legends-like series. Then they further screwed it up by releasing the figures with bad paint jobs, which they then tried to go back and correct, forcing people who wanted decently painted figures to buy them all over again. I said from the second they announced this line that it would fail. That's why I didn't bother to collect them. And I had every single Playmates figure back in the day

Playmates suck, they cannot make toys for the modern market to save their life. Just stick to re-releasing their old stuff and leave it at that
