And the paint is a little different, from the look of things.

Even more retron! The Super7 x Funko Alien ReAction Alien (with Metallic Flesh) is charming as it takes an unproduced design from the 1970s and applies a produced design with it - this makes a figure that's even more Kennery than the Kenner prototype, as it uses the deco of the original jumbo figure.

Big Lots Carrying Cheap Glass Bottle Sodas

SodaFrostieIf you frequent Big Lots! while hunting for weird small Transformers, you might have noticed displays with Moon Pies and glass-bottled sodas. Frostie Root Beer, various ginger beers, prickly pear sodas, and other things I usually drive out of my way to pay $2 a bottle for (once in a big while) are being sold for 75 cents a whack - which is pretty cheap for this stuff these days.

I don't know if this a test market or if there will be more - the sign on the unfinished display showed cardboard soda caddies which were not present - but you might want to keep an eye out for this stuff. (If they start stocking Jolt all bets are off.)

F.A.O. Schwarz Closing Last Store (For Now)

ToysLinkVia the Hollywood Reporter: F.A.O. Schwarz, Toy Store in 'Big,' to Close Its Fifth Avenue Location.

Since being purchased by Toys R Us, this location is, pretty much, a fancier Toys R Us without the usual level of mass-market glitz. I made it a point to stop there during Toy Fair if there's time between meetings and dinners, usually to snag some Playmobil or (more generally) to find out it closed around 7 PM and I get to walk back in the snow empty-handed. Such is the way of things. The store may reopen, so says the article, but it's not like TRU has done much with the Kay-Bee or eToys brand names it owns lately.

What's particularly depressing is that even though this was effectively a reskinned TRU, it also means that yet another toy store from the 20th Century has (temporarily?) bit the dust. Kay-Bee, ToyCo, Lionel PlayWorld, eToys, Zany Brainy, and numerous other stores regional and national are all gone.

Transformers Arcee Repaint Coming, Somewhere, Eventually

TransformersLinkVia TF-Prototype: Arcee. This page says it's a BotCon prototype, but given that it appears on an upcoming comic book it seems unlikely they would put it out there exclusively - it would be unprecedented if they did.

The deco is extremely similar to a Burger King Z-Bots toy, so you know I already love it and hope I can get one. I'd bank on SDCC, or perhaps even an unknown retailer exclusive like the May Mayhem items last week.

Transformers Arcee Repaint Gets New Hands

TransformersLinkVia TFW2005: More Images Of Potential Generations Arcee Repaint. Why do you care? A third set of hands - before we had closed hands (which pretty much nobody found) plus open hands (which didn't work well). Now we've got 5mm hands, which is nicer - and so far only on this black version.

Also new: Clash of the Transformers Legion Two Packs Out in Australia - one may assume these are coming to the USA and one may also assume BotCon announcements have just been trumped by reality of product flow.
