If they lost the Transformers trademark in the 1980s, I can almost guarantee Hasbro will rebrand the line as "GI Joe Metamorphers" or something. It's not like they haven't done something similar. Animorph toys were sold as a subline of Beast Wars despite the fiction not being connected in anyway.

Dareon posted:Whatever happened to Go-Bots, anyway? Hasbro own them now. They occasionally show up as Transformers characters. Usually as toys, but the most recent Transformers cartoon on Netflix (Earthrise) has Bugbite in it. Hasbro can use their name and characters, but not their toy designs as anything beyond homages because Bandai owns those. A few years ago Bandai made updated versions under their Machine Robo line.

Knormal posted:Japan has a tendency to translate what we would probably term a chestplate somewhat awkwardly, like in this fully-legitimate Transformers subline from the 80's: Ironically with the most metal names of all Transformers. Freaking Hellbat, Killbison, Deathcobra and Deathsaurus and they're called Breastforce.

I found this in a Facebook group for online scams. This person bought a 2TB SSD for dirt cheap. When he tries using it, the transfer speed is hella slow and it fills up after several gigs. He opens it up and found a 16gb USB drive with metal weights inside. Somehow whoever made this managed to make the drive show up as 2TB when connected to a PC.

I remember watching a documentary about how one African country had a "national car project" that involves them buying cars wholesale from Alibaba. These cars would be customised with their own logo and shipped as parts from China that would be assembled by workers once they arrive.

There's actual Hot Wheels and My Little Pony in many truck stops now so even Mattel and Hasbro know there's a market there. Of course in Belgium I found porn DVDs at a gas station store. They're all in uniform yellow covers with only a title I can't read. But they're definitely porn.

Fors Yard posted:The artist is milking the Noun Head formula I wouldnt be surprised if these are official. SirenHead is a neat design but the rest feel desperate and I’m surprised it seems so popular with kids. bottom right is chimney with fire not French fries but it wouldn’t surprise me if he made French Fry Head I follow Trevor Henderson on Twitter and Instagram and I don't think he has made any variations of Siren Head or merchandised it as of yet.
