  1. Good day, Hope you checkout may review @Bespin refugee hope you can publish. Thank you
  2. The Marvel Cinematic Universe hype train is in full force after Wednesday's major livestream event, where Marvel Studios revealed the full cast of Avengers: Doomsday in the most dramatic way possible: by slowly adding director's chairs with the actors' names on them over the course of FIVE hours. As soon as the event ended, collectors worldwide had the same idea: recreating the scene using their Marvel Legends figures. However, there was just one small problem: nobody could find 1:12 scale director’s chairs! ToyFarce investigated... "I thought this would be a fun, easy diorama to put together" said one frustrated collector. "I have all the figures, I just needed some tiny chairs. But now? It’s like they never existed! Did everyone have the same idea at once?!" Indeed, online retailers and hobby stores have been wiped clean of miniature director's chairs. Some collectors report seeing listings for them just days ago, but now they are mysteriously sold out everywhere. Even custom diorama makers and 3D printing enthusiasts are struggling to keep up with the sudden demand. Some desperate fans have resorted to alternative methods, including repurposing dollhouse furniture, using LEGO chairs as placeholders, or simply Photoshopping the chairs into their pictures. "I considered buying 1:6 scale director’s chairs and just forcing my figures to sit on the edge" admitted one collector, "...but then I realized that would look ridiculous, so I just cried instead!" Meanwhile, conspiracy theories have emerged in toy collector circles. "Was this all planned by Marvel? Did they buy up all the tiny chairs in advance to make us suffer?" speculated one Reddit user. Others believe a shadowy network of scalpers is now hoarding 1:12 chairs, preparing to list them at absurd prices. One eBay listing has allegedly appeared with a single miniature chair priced at $200, with the description reading: "Perfect for recreating your most recent favorite MCU moment". As collectors continue their frantic search, some remain hopeful. "Maybe NECA will suddenly release a pack of 1:12 director’s chairs at Best Buy, without announcing it" said one fan, referencing the company’s mysterious product drop habits. "Or maybe Hasbro will make an actual MCU Director’s Chair Pack. I’d buy that in a heartbeat!" Until then, the dream of fully recreating the Avengers: Doomsday reveal remains just out of reach, like a director’s chair that never was. More news at 11:00... Yes, officer. We did spend 5 hours looking at chairs. Why?
  3. Comic book collectors and toy enthusiasts rejoice as CGC (Certified Guaranty Company) unveils its latest offering: a grading service for the miniature comics that come with Marvel Legends figures from the freshly revealed 'Mini-comic wave'! Yes, you read that correctly - now your 1:12 scale comic books can be professionally graded, slabbed, and certified as valuable artifacts for your collection! ToyFarce investigated... In a groundbreaking move, CGC has officially partnered with Hasbro’s Marvel Legends team to bring some legitimacy to the tiny comic books that accompany their action figures. "We’ve heard the cries of the hardcore collectors" said Jonathan Slabs, Vice President of Marketing at CGC. "The world has been waiting for a way to properly grade these micro-sized comics, and we’re thrilled to provide that service. With CGC’s new service, figures like Spider-Man, Iron Man, and Captain America can now proudly display a graded comic book alongside their action figure counterpart." "What we’re doing here is revolutionary!" said Steve McCollect, a CGC-certified grader. "It’s not just about preserving the comic’s condition - it’s about preserving the legacy of these figures. I can’t wait to grade a 9.6 for a tiny, perfectly creased comic that will be a treasure for future generations." ToyFarce reached out to a few collectors for their thoughts on this new service: "I was reluctant at first to get that mini-comic book wave, because I didn't know if the comic book would keep its value" said one collector. "Now, I will finally be able to display my Marvel Legends Miles Morales Spider-Man comic with pride, right alongside his CGC-certified mini-comic book. This is what true fandom is all about." Another collector quipped "I’m just happy I won’t have to carry around a magnifying glass every time I want to read my figures’ comic book. Plus, my collection will now be 100% more valuable, according to CGC, so I’m basically sitting on a gold mine." Will this be the start of a new age of graded action figure accessories? Only time will tell! More news at 11:00... "What? 9.5? But it's perfect!" *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!
  4. Last Friday, Hasbro's Marvel Legends team attempted to leap into the future with their latest livestream, presenting it exclusively in the ultra modern, innovative 3D VR format. Collectors tuning in last Friday were met with a perplexing sight: a video that looked stretched in every direction, a virtual showroom accessible only via VR headsets. The move left many scrambling to dust off their old VR gear or hastily order new ones, while others were left staring at their screens in bewilderment: "This is either the best Spider-Man figure I've ever seen, or the worst?". ToyFarce investigated... The livestream, intended to showcase the newest Marvel Legends figures, was swiftly taken down and replaced with a standard 2D version after feedback poured in. However, a niche group of tech-savvy collectors expressed disappointment, having thoroughly enjoyed the immersive experience. One enthusiast Marvel Legends collector remarked: "I felt like I was right there, picking up the figures myself! I was there, right in front of Dan, Ryan and Dwight, like we were all hanging out together! It's the next best thing to being at a convention!" Despite the hiccup, the incident has sparked discussions about the future of toy reveals: While the majority of collectors seem content with traditional formats, a vocal minority is eager for more immersive experiences. As one fan said: "Maybe next time, they'll find a middle ground... like augmented reality cards included with the figures?" For now, it seems Hasbro will stick to tried-and-true methods, but the brief foray into VR has left an indelible mark on the community, highlighting the diverse preferences among collectors. More news at 11:00... "I guess we're not ready to assemble in virtual reality just yet..." *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!
  5. It is no secret that a QC issue regarding the eyes seems to be plaguing Hasbro's Marvel Legends Haslab Giant-Man figure. Hundreds of collector have been reporting that their Haslab Giant-Man "just doesn't look right". To solve the issue, a leading toy eye specialist has been called in to give us some answers, and it is not Giant-Man's eyes that worries her the most, it's the collectors'... ToyFarce investigated. Dr Orb (no relation), one of the world's most renowned toy eye specialist, shed some light on the issue with the Haslab Giant-Man: "This is not the first time I have seen an action figure suffering from ocular misalignment syndrome" she said, while carefully examining a Giant-Man patient on her workbench. "I used to have tons of McFarlane Toys and DC Multiverse patients. It's the same condition." Dr Orb confirmed that the Haslab Giant Man's condition is not life-threatening but might be inconvenient for those trying to photograph him staring heroically into the distance. He recommends a very precise procedure involving contacting the customer service, giving the info needed and lots of patience, while the new sets of eyes are getting prepared to ship. However, after browsing several Marvel Legends collectors groups to search for more data about Giant-Man's eye, Dr Orb became worried about some other sets of eyes: the eyes of the collectors! "There are dozens upon dozens of posts showing pictures that clearly have 2 sets of eyes, both looking to the left, asking if they have the correct set of eyes." Dr Orb said, shaking her head. "If you do not see that the eyes are looking sideways, stop worrying about Giant-Man's eyes and go have yours checked, please! Also, after the 53rd post asking what to do if you have the wrong eyes, even though it has been answered already multiple times, and could have been found by searching or even just scrolling a little, it's more than the eyes that I'm worried about..." More news at 11:00... "My Giant-Man does look right... He only looks left!" *badum tss* *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!
