It's newish! The Hasbro Transformers Generations War for Cybertron Trilogy Selects Rotorstorm Action Figure will burn your eyes with his colors, and sadden your heart with the lack of Turbomaster weapons - but it's still pretty neat despite having three cockpits in robot mode for some reason. So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

The game cartridge has a card and a sleeve by default, or also a poster. It does not seem there are boxed versions at this time.

Order yours now! And stay tuned for more new reveals.

Needs more sweaters! Funko Pop! Television Schitt's Creek David Rose Action Figure is the can't-miss present for your parents this holiday season. So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

But I certainly hope it's real. The forum has a lot of scans of upcoming 2021 sets, including a zeppelin, tons of figures, more Scooby-Doo, and (so far) no new licenses.

Since getting a new NES game for the holidays is something I liked to do as a kid, I think I'll get it if it's available. According to previous tweets, the first run is expected to be around 100 boxed banana yellow cartridges.

It's newish! The Hasbro Transformers Generations War for Cybertron Earthrise Deluxe Smokescreen Action Figure is colorful and I haven't seen it in stores yet - but online pre-orders are being filled. So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

--AP

Shipping from Canada put it at about US $70 total, so I look forward to trying it at home. You can see the closed eBay listing here.

It's also worth noting the very fun (and hard) shooter Haradius Zero is in stock for NES too. If you like NES games. And you should.

But what? We have no images to share yet, but expect to be able to show more soon.

It's basically new, but Overair is very similar to Airwave's colors, and Ironworks looks like Fort Max' little buddy. The four Micromasters don't even seem to have names listed here, which is both disappointing and a refreshingly honest take on the chance that you will bother to learn them in the first place.

For an organization to schedule two consecutive weekends in far away places, right as the holidays are kicking off and retailers are probably less inclined to travel for business due to needing to manage their own regular orders, is an interesting choice. No doubt the good news on a possible COVID-19 vaccine for spring are leading people to extreme levels of optimism right now, even though they haven't been rolled out and the trials aren't yet finished - a lot can happen between now and then, but by staking out a place on the calendar you can be sure there won't be competing conventions at that time.

It would be amazing if there's a vaccine, a system to check people to confirm they got the vaccine, no mutations, and the drive to hold two back-to-back celebrations in a 10-day period. AMC theater stock prices shot up and gun manufacturer stocks have gone down a bit, so remember that future events, such as these, will affect you in the future.

Bright, not just white! Outer Space Men White Star Cthulhu Nautilus Action Figure is a big-eyed alien from beyond our concept of reality, mostly made of existing parts. So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

--AP

Cappy Space has new figures later tonight. Presumably new Onell Figures will sneak out, and we just had some new Outer Space Men too.

--AP

Get yours while you can!

At retail: Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory, Just Dance 2021, and Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered.

Volkswagen sets join new police, City Life, more Everdreamerz, Dreamworks Dragons, and Back to the Future - a 2015 Hill Valley set includes a hoverboard, Griff, Future Doc, a pond, and a police bike. You also get Marty's 4x4 from 1985, complete with defeated Biff and Jennifer.

What really surprised me, though, is a new Dinosaurs theme with mech parts. It's like Dino-Riders, which Mattel is starting up again through army men-sized toys. Playmobil's are a lot more impressive with clip-on armor and rocket launchers, making them larger than the original 1980s Tyco line.

These may not be in toy aisles, but rather giant swaths of aisles filled with $20 exclusive gift boxes from many manufacturers - I just peeked in and was surprised to see this. It's goofy, but $20 would have been a good price for this in the 1990s.

What's more, 7-inch scale Lanard Aliens are on the way in 2021. You have to sift through this YouTube video but it's impressive. They seem to be upsized versions of existing toys, in new colors, none of which match the movies. There's a blue Aliens Xenomorph, a white Alien version, and a gold/bronze Alien 3 dogburster. I have no idea what they will cost, but I assume $10 or less.

--AP

My store did not have it by the Imaginext, but rather by numerous big doll house-style toys closer to the bicycles. We were there hunting groceries and other sale things we needed, and I picked one up. It's worth the $50.99 if you have kids or a lot of Imaginext toys of your own.

It took me about 20 minutes to put it together. The figures aren't as snazzy as some of the ones I've already got, but the playset is a marvel of toy engineering. Virtually no paint can be found on the playset - it's like a giant, mutant Tim Mee Battle Mountain. I have a lot of big toys, and this may be bigger than most of them - I have no idea where it's going to live yet. If you're stupid, you should also run out and buy one.

It's small! The Hasbro Transformers BotBots Deluxe Whoopsie Cushion Action Figure can stand in as a 1:12 scale whoopie cushion, were you to need one. So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

--AP

Order yours now! And stay tuned for more new reveals.

The set includes energy blasts and micro Wolverine and Sabretooth figures, which is how you know it's aping the 1990s Toy Biz style. Target has an early window now, with GameStop and Hasbro Pulse selling it in March. It's sort of like the Gigawatt and original Ectotron situations.

--AP

Surprise! Fisher-Price Imaginext DC Super Friends Slammers Batmobile with Batman Set is not bad, but not as neat as non-blind packaged Batman and Batmobile Imaginext toys you may find at a store near you. So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

I've used the clone console with my cartridge collection and find it to be exceptional - despite the weird chamber lid and the web site that looks like it might be from another era. The product is very good.

At retail: Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, Sniper Elite 4, and Serious Sam Collection.

Other exclusive sets still available include The Night Watch, The Milkmaid, and Marten & Oopjen. These haven't made it over to the USA in traditional channels, but you can find them on eBay for prices near - or possibly slightly less - than they would be directly. Good hunting.

If your dad used to bring you home a floppy of Mac shareware in the late 1980s, you may know what to expect.

It's newish! The Hasbro Transformers Generations War for Cybertron Trilogy Selects Centurion Drone Weaponizer Pack is sold out and I really hope they run more - the figure itself is just fine, but his accessory pack is well worth the $30. With a Soundwave tape deck, Megatron gun mode, axes, maces, blasters, drills, cages, and so much more it's a steal at $30 - and even better if you got your order in early when they were $20! So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

It's better than the Go90/Machinima shows, but it probably won't displace your previous favorite cartoons or comics as your new go-to continuity for the classic characters.

Unlike Siege, this new chapter has the benefit of actually potentially still having Earthrise toys on-shelf right now - assuming they appear in the show, of course. Siege drove toy popularity and caused secondary market prices to spike, so if there's anything you missed that you wanted to get, maybe you will want to go buy those right now.

Order yours now! And stay tuned for more new reveals.

The extra $30 gets you a CD soundtrack, poster, pin set, coin, and an acrylic standee. All good swag if you love the game. But wait, there's more!

--AP

Like the NES port, this also has a bonus CD, coin, poster, standee, and pin set in the deluxe edition.

Hacking the Xbox to run other games has been around since the original systems in 2001 - it's a tradition! - but this seems to be relatively easy to do with minimal expertise, assuming you can actually find the new Xboxes in a store near you.

Bright, not just white! Cappy Space Legion Lead Crayboth sold out, but the regular edition (shown in this review, too) is still available. So read on, and come back tomorrow for more!

We don't have any details to share, but wish him and his family and loved ones the best during this time. Also, you should check out his art if you aren't familiar with it already - he posted a lot of amazing stuff to Instagram.

--AP

There's a teaser video and the usual slate of inspirations listed. It lokos unusual - no word yet on the medium, but we're always hoping for actual cartridges to baffle future generations.

There is also a @GelatinousGame Twitter account for you.
