I almost completely missed the G2 era of Transformers. The only portion I remember is the rerelease of the original series with the animatronic Optimus and the little kid. I never saw any of the toys on the shelves, but I also was more into TMNT around that time. If I had looked, I would…

Elita Prime And Her Team Of Autobots Return To Cybertron! Transformers #32 Preview
The consensus among fans of Skybound’s Transformers series are that its best days are behind it. No doubt, Daniel Warren Johnson, Jorge Corona, and Mike Spicer set a standard that is hard to replicate. What Dan Mora and returning guest artist Jason Howard have done good work, it doesn’t have the same magic. The story…
The Secret Of Megatron Revealed! New Arc Begins in Transformers #31
Back in issue 19 of Transformers, we got a little background on how Megatron obtained his gun mode. We got to see how what he went through shaped him and gave him the opposite of the Matrix of Leadership. The issue seemed to give us a good idea of why he had this power, but…
Can You Name All 82? The Energon Universe’s Biggest Anniversary Reveal Yet
It’s crazy to think that it’s only been three years since the Energon Universe began. It all started with Void Rivals, introducing us to Darak, Solila, and Handroid, with a cameo from Jetfire. That issue set the stage for a new interconnected Universe using the characters and locations from the classic properties of Transformers, G.I….
Marvel Legends Series 85th Anniversary Venom
Hasbro is currently running their Marvel 85th Anniversary line of figures. Most of what they have revealed has not been exciting to me. I do want Superior Spider-Man and Skaar, but for the most part nothing has been all that exciting. This Venom, while a nice looking figure, isn’t anything new. Well, that’s not 100%…
Marvel Legends Fanstream Reveals 4/15/24
What a stream! There were so many great reveals that I’m probably going to break my promise to myself not to preorder anything. Let’s take a look at the promo images Hasbro sent out today. Let’s just start with the star of the stream, Danny Ketch, the Ghost Rider with motorcycle! When I think of…
Marvel Legends X-men ’97 Magento Roleplay Helmet
Hasbro’s Marvel Legends line has included roleplay items for some years now. To date, they have mostly been MCU related, with the exception of the Punisher War Machine helmet. I have only purchased one so far, the Infinity Gauntlet. It’s an incredible piece and it is fun to take it to the Austin Comic-Con while…
Marvel Legends Spider-Man: Across The Spider-verse Official Images
I really appreciated the first animated Spider-verse movie. It’s distinctive style and great characters really made it a classic film deserving of all the praise it received. The first wave of figures for the movie were okay. I didn’t feel a need to add them to my collection I think I only bought the Hand…
Dinobot Snarl Makes His Debut In The Studio Series Line
The Studio Series “86 is my favorite sub-line in the Transformers Brand. Finally, we are getting cartoon accurate figures that aren’t Masterpiece figures. While I enjoy all of them, the Dinobots are the stars of the line. At least until they figure out a way to get us a Megatron with his accurate Walther P-38…
Coming Soon To Walmart Collector-Con! Marvel Legends Retro Card Kraven the Hunter

It appears as a section on their site that sells items that appeal to fans of different properties and fandoms. Marvel Legends usually has a couple of items listed and one has just been revealed. Here are the images of the…
