It looks a LOT like the Star Wars retro collection card, I hope Hasbro re-releases the RGB figures

I don't know who that guy is or why he makes 15 minute videos with 1 minute of news, but his claims were very specific."This guy" posts 15 minute videos, because that's what his audience and subscribers like and prefer. The episodes are called "Action Figure Musings". Not "Action Figure Short Clips for the ADHD".
Frankly it would make sense. DST has pretty much done everything they're willing to do at this point, and they're not the kind of company to do a larger retail line for an upcoming movie.

I explicitly state this. This is how licenses work. Hence, why you can still find Bandai Power Rangers stuff on shelves although Hasbro now has THAT license, as well.

"This guy" also discusses other things outside of the 1 minute you might be interested in. Things that others might be interested in.
"This guy" is a collector who has sources and friends inside the toy industry that share news and scoops with him, that he kindly passes along to fellow collectors, because he feels they should be able to get to join in his excitement, too.
Anything else that I need to justify with you, or can you cut the snark and just be happy with the news that this is happening? Rude, and completely unnecessary.

SSJmole wrote: ↑June 13th, 2019, 1:13 pm My only complaint with the video is I'm 100% sure he won't give me all those figures! I want them!You are 100% right. Those are MINE.
Joking obviously it was good.
My thoughts are 2 fold
1) Hasbro making them means more cross over with transformers hopefully
2) I don't want Hasbro to make them as Hasbro own gi joe , star wars , marvel , power rangers , transformers ect ... It starts to feel like a monopoly.
Like I didn't want want Disney to buy fox for the same reason. 1 company doing all the big franchises feels .. off to me.
But that's my opinion mixed bag
ShiftyHenry wrote: ↑June 13th, 2019, 1:42 pm Several different companies can have a license at the same time. There was cross over with Mattel and DST and now we have DST, Mezco and whoever else. It's about the type of figures being release. Hasbro can easily do 6" and smaller and DST could continue doing 7". No one knows either way if they will or won't. But the fact is, DST's plans change a LOT across all lines. I don't want it to happen, but It would not shock me at all if they called it a day.Hey there, Henry. I've seen you involved in the convo over at Fwoosh!

The easiest thing to do in life is criticize someone else's work, you'll have to accept the fact you'll receive some, especially when it's anonymous. Saying your video was a little long is a mild critique. Need to let some stuff go.ccv66 wrote: ↑June 13th, 2019, 1:08 pm This is the internet, you need to lighten upThat is such a lame cop-out for crappy behavior.
So, you can't be decent to one another because it's the internet? You aren't face to face with someone, so that gives you carte blanche to be a jerk? To insult them? Give me a break. It takes a lot to put yourself out there on here. Do you? Or do you hide behind the anonymity of your screenname? I'm going to guess the latter. No, when the person is insulting me directly, no...I won't lighten up. And stop acting like you all would. Hypocrite.

DarkSpectre wrote: ↑June 18th, 2019, 1:42 pmSame basic molds but with more than 5 points of articulation. Same packaging and accessories but just pose ableSee, now... I've just never understood the desire for toys/figures that are made to look like retro pieces, but are made with today's technology. We have the ability to produce a better effort than was available back in the day, so why not go for the better effort instead of hobbling a potentially awesome figure by making it look like a dated product with a bit of extra functionality?
