Retronauts Interviews Limited Run Games on Retro Cartridges
|
|
  Via Retronauts: A look into Limited Run's retro revival projects in Episode 259. If you've been wondering what their deal is reissuing old NES Star Wars games, as I have, Jeremy Parish talks to them and finds out.
One of the great things - especially for you toy collectors - is that they talk about the reality of paying for nice packaging. Specifically, that boxes aren't free and that they (and then, you) have to pay for packaging on your collector products. Now where is my GameBoy Color Shantae reissue?

Five Below Warms to Ten Below
|
|
  Via Five Below: We owe you an explanation.
The chain finally expanded into more states this year, and it was a travel destination when I went to cities that had them - it's a mix of low-cost items, closeouts, and generally unwanted goodies. Hasbro dumps stuff there, as does Mattel - and they're adding a $6-$10 arena. Not coincidentally, market conditions connected to manufacturing in China have been resulting in conversations in lots of price increases, this is the first time we're seeing a store mention it as a focus.
