Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Mae (Assassin, The Vintage Collection). This figure answers the question "Does Hasbro still got it?" with a "Yes." She has optional masks, a cloth cloak, two daggers, incredible costume deco, an amazing likeness, and a well separately molded hair piece. Given the size Hasbro is working with I'd say this figure is as good as the modern era can be expected to get - and you might, maybe, find her in a store near you as The Acolyte stuff has been slower to move. If you see her, you should give this figure a look - it's good. Read the whole review.

Via Limited Run Games (by way of Dale Coop on Bluesky): Several new indie NES games from @limitedrungames.com use 3.3V PCBs, which could potentially damage consoles. . No date for replacements is given, but as someone who bought and played a bit of Rugrats I'll be sticking with the ROM for now as I don't want to ruin my consoles.

Via the Star Wars Galactic Hunter Figure of the Day Blog: Scout Trooper (Speeder Bike / Epic Hero Series). This is a new release that's actually easy to find - most Target stores seem to be getting solid cases of just him. (But, oddly, not the Mando bike.) The figure is pretty good, with nice paint and a slick off-white coloring that looks sort of like the battle-worn armor on the show. It also includes a Stormtrooper blaster instead of the Bike Scout pistol, but it's still a neat figure with a nice toy bike. Read the whole review.

Via Master Replicas: In 2025 Master Replicas is launching an exciting new line of 4.5-inch Star Trek action figures. Each figure is fully poseable, has a digitally sculpted likeness and comes with accessories. . These seem scaled to match Playmates' lines, with articulation similar to the brief eight-figure line from a couple of years ago. They key difference is that the license seems to focus on new streaming series and movies, with no mention of classic stuff this time. They look pretty good, and will come out later this year for about $25.99 each (plus shipping.) Pre-orders are open for Picard and Spock.

Via CNN: Joann, the bankrupt fabrics retailer, is closing 500 of its 800 stores. Word on the street has been they've been looking for a buyer and would probably have until March 15 to see what happens. After the closure of Big Lots, you may be asking if this impacts you as a toy buyer - probably not, but they did carry a small amount of toys and were one of few places around where you could easily get most kinds of fabric in suburbia.
