In a shocking revelation that absolutely nobody saw coming (except maybe Gene Simmons), sources tell ToyFarce that the massive "KITH x Marvel vs. Capcom" collaboration—you know, the one involving Hasbro's Marvel figures and Jada Toys' Capcom figures—was actually never supposed to happen. According to insiders, the collab was originally intended to be with the iconic rock band KISS, but a single announcement went terribly wrong when the spokesperson chosen to reveal it happened to have... well... a slight lisp. ToyFarce investigated... "We're very exthited to announth our collab with KITH!" the spokesperson proudly declared during a very echoey press call, immediately sending marketing departments, toy-related social media pages, and half the toy community into a frenzy over the idea of Ryu or Wolverine wearing premium streetwear. By the time someone realized the error, somewhere between the words "limited edition capsule collection" and "Gene Thimmonth", it was already too late. The internet had embraced the KITH idea, mockups were circulating, and the Hasbro/Jada team had already sent out 12 emails asking, "Wait... so who are we collabing with again?" Meanwhile, members of KISS were reportedly thrilled to be involved, until they found out they weren't. "We had already designed the face paint for Chun-Li" one spokesperson allegedly complained. "Do you know how hard it was to paint her buns?" Jada Toys and Hasbro, caught in the chaos, simply shrugged and rolled with it. "Honestly, we're just happy it wasn't 'KITT'..." said a representative from Jada Toys. "We already released the Knight Rider car earlier this year." At press time, the original spokesperson apologized, stating: "I'm tho thorry. Although, if you ever want Mortal Kombat figureth to collab with Rolekth, I'm your guy!" More news at 11:00... Now KITH! *ToyFarce News is parody news for laughs and not meant to be taken seriously!

"At this point, I’ve got more Ryu figures than Ryu has moves..." What a great time to be a Marvel vs Capcom fan... or is it? Local collector Jeffrey, who proudly calls Marvel vs Capcom 2 "his entire personality for a full year in 2000", is starting to feel the déjà vu as yet another company has entered the fray with their take on 1:12 scale figures from the iconic crossover fighting game. ToyFarce investigated... "It all started off so innocently..." Jeffrey recounted. "I had the Toy Biz figures from 25 years ago, and for the longest time, they were my favorite. The Street Fighter figures from SOTA Toys back then were great too. More recently, Jada Toys gave us those amazing Street Fighter figures. I thought I'd get some X-Men figures from MAFEX to go with them. Then, Hasbro announced the Gamerverse Marvel Legends versions. I was like 'Cool! I’ll build my perfect MVC roster!' After that, Storm Collectibles came in with their 1:12 Street Fighter Storm Arena versions, so I figured 'Why not a third set?' And now, S.H. Figuarts, who also did Street Fighter figures before, announced X-Men characters from the game..." Jeffrey has been through this fight before. Literally. "You try to resist, but then you see that Ryu looks slightly more angry, or Magneto has extra hands, and suddenly you’re justifying a fourth version of the same character because this one looks the most like the arcade sprites." Adding to the stress is the fact that no one company seems to be releasing the full Marvel vs Capcom roster. "You end up kitbashing a playable team across four to five lines. My Wolverine is a Marvel Legend, my Captain America is a MAFEX, Ken is Storm Arena and my Chun-Li is Jada. I’m basically doing toy alchemy at this point!" Despite the annoyance, Jeffrey has confirmed he will be pre-ordering the S.H. Figuarts Gamerverse Cyclops: "He’s got that optic blast effect... I mean, come on. What am I supposed to do - not buy it!?" More news at 11:00... "If Toy Biz had just done this properly in 1999, we wouldn’t be in this mess..."
