  1. LMAO they seriously backloaded that presentation with a bunch of mobile crap

    Other than the Mickey Mouse platformer and the Cap/BP game that was pretty shit lol

  2. NINTENDO DIRECT WHEN :Cozy:?

  3. I really hate that this website still has a debate pit after all these years

  4.  

    This video is violent :ooh:

  5. okay, I dunno if any of you guys collect figurines, but have you noticed that some of the figures dont have any plastic to protect the figure? :ooh: I am a collector, and I've watched a couple of videos bout this, and they say that hasbro wants to minimize the use of plastic with their packaging, but there's a huge problem with this: 

    1. the figure is more likely to get damaged. when parents are shifting through the various toys on the shelf and if it just so happens to drop on the floor, well, there's no protection.

    2. kids can just easily rip it out of the box. this was something that a number of collectors pointed out and I didnt think bout this...until now, and that is a major problem. young children can easily get away with this cuz they dont know any better and of course, the retailer wants to try to minimise theft as much as possible.

    Some people say enclosed packaging is the solution if they want to reduce the amount of plastic while still appealing to collectors. well, you do have their ups and downs

    + because it is enclosed, it offers a lot more protection than your typical open window packaging

    - you cant see the defects on a figure. I get it. not every figure is gonna be perfect, but most collectors want to try to find the one with the least amount of defects.

    - because it is enclosed, you wont be able to see the figure inside. for the average in-box collector, they'll definitely be turned off by this.

    the first time I saw this at my local retailer was with the latest transformers figures...and some of the playmates, but now, I see it's starting to become a thing. look, I understand that hasbro wants to minimise the use of plastic in their products, but I just dont think it's a good idea using open window packaging. It just doesnt offer that much protection :lie:

     I think what they should do is strike a happy medium and create a smaller plastic window, and of course, use a lot more card-board. that way, you still reduce the amount of plastic in your products while protecting the figure and appealing to the collectors. 

    (maybe something similar to the NECA godzilla figures they've released a few years ago where you have a small flap and have a small plastic window where you can see the figure inside?) :ooh:

     I think THIS is the solution.

    this is a hard, protective case that you can buy for your funko pops. what they can do is instead of using plastic in their packing, why not make a hard, protective case? that way, you can have it on display and this will reduce the amount of plastic that ends up in the landfill, while offering just as much protection (if not more) than enclosed packaging.

    this is something that they can do with the 6 inch scale figures. (Marvel Legends, Black Series, etc.) most of the people who buy figurines are old teens / young adults who grew up playing with figurines back in the day who want to re-live a part of their child-hood ^^ this will appeal to collectors :squee: as for all the stuff that kids buy, just keep it in enclosed packaging. that'll prevent theft, and everyone gets what they want. :catface:

     

    also...

     

    I noticed they've just released a figure of Kiryu Goji. heh. it looks like Godzilla is trying to steal my money. :D 

    g02-hires-4.jpg

    am I gonna buy it? :ooh: ...not right now (I wanna see what the Haslab is and if I'm gonna spend $150 on a figure, I'd rather buy three marvel ghost rider figures than spend it on an S.H. MonsterArts), but this does give me hope that they'll release a kiryu figure in november. :ticking: (this year is the 20th anniversary of Godzilla Against MechaGozilla, and the movie came out in japanese theatres in november 2002)

  6. Poor Master Chief...:( anyway hope you are doing well! If you remember this video you are a legend.
