[Llama God]

Yeah that wishful thinking.

NYTF 2021 Cancelled

[Llama God]

Not surprising. What is surprising is that I thought that this had already been cancelled. Ah well - memory'll not do that to you...

[Philip Ayres]

IIRC previously postponed till May. Will check.

[Philip Ayres]

I do: posts rescued from 2020 thread and posted above

[Llama God]

See? I told you it was wishful thinking.

[Llama God]

Wait. I didn't want to be right about this one.

Dammit.

[Llama God]

Dunno where else to put this, so it's going here, but on the Fan First Friday Ftar Warf thing thif week Hasbro did acknowledge the issue that people have been having buying the online exclusives, and that they're working with retailers to see what they can do. So this is potentially promising. On the other hand, this is also the company that said they were going to work closely with non-US retailers to ensure that product was available globally, and we all know how that worked out. So... we'll take a pinch of salt and see, I guess.

Wonderfest in Japan is online this Sunday

[The Huff]

Bah!
Double disappointment. I was also told I'd get snow today.

[Pinwig]

The snow is a lie.

[The Huff]

Well, it HAS snowed here lots now.
So I'll see those Titan Ark photos now too please Takara.

[Pinwig]

WHAT.

The sky is blue here. I feel robbed.

One or two flakes of snow here

[Benn]

Nothing here.

[Llama God]

It's March now, again, still, will Hasbro grant us a Fan First Friday this week, or will it be the turn of, I don't know, Monopoly next..?

[Toph]

Monopoly dropped today:

[The Doctor]

I knew it.

-Ralph

[Pinwig]

Woah! Llama do that again! What's next?

[Llama God]

Huh. Er... My Little Pony?

[Llama God]

As predicted, just another Fuck-you Forever Friday this week. I guess they're happy enough dribbling new toys out through Instagram and leaks. Oh well. Just mildly vexing since in normal years we'd've had Toy Fair by now...

[Philip Ayres]

Have they said what is being done this week, if anything?

A leaked image from next week's Takara reveals suggests they're going to show a product not yet revealed by Hasbro

tmukhub.proboards.com/post/442300/thread

I can't remember the last time Takara revealed a Generations toy before we'd seen the Hasbro version

tmukhub.proboards.com/post/442419/thread

So my expectation is there's SOMETHING on the runway from Hasbro in terms of a presentation/reveal

[Llama God]

As far as I can tell there was no Fan Friday this week. They usually seem to announce around Tuesday or Wednesday, so we have to wait until next week now. And if it is next week, I'll be annoyed 'cos I've got the next few Friday afternoons off as I burn holidays, so I'm likely to not be sat at a computer in need of diversion. So I think we can guarantee one'll happen before the end of March now, by law of Sod. And if they don't, they'll just be revealing things we already know from leaks soon enough...

[Philip Ayres]

There's not a lot leaked that's currently in play for Generations. We've seen some of the commander, blurry pics of one titan mode and a few Netflix deluxe. We know loads more names from leaks but Hasbro themselves blew almost all of them with that picture:

[Benn]

Shame about Gears though. Unless that's a double bluff to make us doubt Tracks and the other non-officially-announced guys.

[Toph]

Why is Wheeljack the one that gets repackaged in Kingdom? Next to Cliffjumper, he's the easiest ER guy of all to find since wave 1 were tge only toys available for almost an entire year, AND he got "redecoed" in Netflix line.

I hate Arcee is getting a repackage as bad as she is, but at least she makes sense.
But dang, Wheeljack is a kick in the teeth.
Sunstreaker, Runamuck, Trailbreaker, or Smokescreen would have made more sense.

[Philip Ayres]

It's a bit odd. The best I can offer is that he's prob the most prominent cartoon character in the Earthrise deluxe.
