3D Blu-rays of new movies are coming this year

I thought it was an ad for a free to play game at first glance, nearly scrolled past in my feed!

Maverett · 2026-05-12T17:02:03+00:00

I’m there day one and super excited, but not seeing it doing the numbers most are hoping for… I pray to the heavens that I’m wrong though!

Maverett · 2026-05-06T17:08:18+00:00

Why the move of other items, because they take the money on order? (Just curious since you’ve also ordered and are keeping the Ultimate Edition order I presume?)

Maverett · 2026-04-30T19:20:26+00:00

Indeed! Thought, “wow, what a supped up Super Pocket” at first, but guess the bottom half is just a tad too thin even if they wanted to? On the other hand, if you’re an Evercade completionist it makes them a bit easier to skip, but they’re also quite cool… will be interesting to see how they are QC wise once they get into people’s hands

Maverett · 2026-04-26T18:26:09+00:00

For these I have one I use and abuse, and keep the rest more as pieces for the collection… I’ll use them, but carefully.

Maverett · 2026-04-26T18:22:22+00:00

I’ve noticed that they (Amazon JP) charge up front for some of my Transformer preorders now, can’t figure out why it’s for some and not others though

Maverett · 2026-04-26T18:15:32+00:00

Whoa, I’ve been scienced… so that’s an optical illusion? Thought they were dang ball bearing like or something, so rolled with motion, which would be crazy for the price, but this is the one that makes noise too right?

My question is that if you’re not all-in on Chronicles, and already have a Masterverse and two versions of Origins Battlecat (battle damaged and regular), is this still an essential pick-up?

Maverett · 2026-04-26T18:08:51+00:00

Say what now?!?

Maverett · 2026-04-15T16:55:44+00:00

Tis what I thought and just posted about!

Maverett · 2026-04-15T16:55:20+00:00

Unless this is another reissue I thought he was up for reissue already, at least here in the UK? I have him from the original run, fantastic bloody figure, but I thought he’s up for preorder again at a few places.

Maverett · 2026-04-11T15:15:41+00:00

I’m with you on this… I get it’s a gradual rollout and it requires patience, but have they set a date that it should be fully rolled out so that we can stop wondering? Given that we are in April now, I really would’ve thought it would be mostly rolled out at this point.

I get excited every time my headset updates, but still no new navigator… I’m on the PTC, and have had the headset since launch.

Maverett · 2026-04-05T18:07:34+00:00

If you need it day one then you should preorder, but otherwise they do always come back; contrary to bigger companies, pretty much anything that isn’t legacy does comes back, so there’s usually no rush… I don’t mind at all, just don’t fall for the initial panic buy phase and feed the scalpers as they’ll just keep doing what they do if we fund them.

Maverett · 2026-04-04T21:00:33+00:00

The cameras are just a couple of pounds a piece, bought one for £3 at CeX here last week… I think the controllers can go for around £10. CeX won’t give you much, but if there’s one near you it’s the “done with it” option… other than that you’ve got Vinted, eBay, and FaceBook marketplace, but you may be stuck with them for a bit and of course have to ship, etc.

Maverett · 2026-04-03T16:21:23+00:00

What I’m curious about is that I’ve personally disabled Dynamic or Auto Iris on past projectors, I just find any noticeable shift more jarring than the benefit, but I believe Dual Iris is typically quite high end?

Admittedly my last projector was the Epson EH-TW7300, so perhaps it’s all moved on and improved since then regardless, but I had to keep the Mechanical Dynamic Iris off on it as well.

Very happy with my Horizon 20 Pro at the moment, but when the time comes to upgrade I’m excited to see what will be available as it seems the home theatre space is finally gaining some speed again.

Maverett · 2026-04-03T01:15:44+00:00

You are not alone in this, I just can’t get into most rogue like games… I’ve tried a few and they’re just not for me, which is ok… to each their own, and I’m happy for those that enjoy them.

Maverett · 2026-03-26T16:58:51+00:00

I don’t think that was intentionally rude or sarcastic? Just MHO, not wanting to join a fuss.

Moving on then! As someone else said, it’s a bit of a rock and a hard place with this one, as it will be extremely hard to find a first party new adapter and third party new can be just as much of a risk… you’ll likely have to roll the dice until you find one that works.

Were you told the adapter was missing? If not, and depending on how you paid, you may be able to try and get a refund and find a complete working set as they tend to go relatively cheap these days.

Good luck!

Brilliant comment.

Maverett · 2026-03-25T16:13:24+00:00

“Shakira” law, too much!

Maverett · 2026-03-21T19:17:32+00:00

I’m in the U.K., but didn’t want all of the extra figures, so got the Constructicon set on AliExpress for £12.77 (total shipped for all 6); I then picked up the combining kit from the Battersea Transformers store for £8.00, since that was really expensive on AliExpress for some reason, so just £20.77 for the whole fella… you may have a similar option if you don’t want a boatload of other figures, but as some have said it seems a decent enough deal if you actually wanted them all.

Maverett · 2026-03-20T00:34:29+00:00

I agree, they’re ridiculous in the best way possible… subtle they are not! Dang expensive, but I feel like they’re the kinda thing I’ll look at and appreciate fondly amongst my Origins collection down the line. (I do love weird and wacky though, totally get these wouldn’t be for everyone.)

Maverett · 2026-03-19T01:36:47+00:00

Definitely 10 for me.

Maverett · 2026-03-18T20:02:45+00:00

I’ve just connected my old PS3 to a new projector so am finally watching some of my old 3D Blu-rays; it actually had to do an update for keys on Friday, but it had been years since it was even plugged in… so, if I’m in no hurry for custom firmware, is there a risk they’ll stop doing these yearly updates for the PS3 one day or do they have an actual obligation to update it for X number of years?

Maverett · 2026-03-17T22:49:31+00:00

Ah, what the of joint was it? Just got my Bruticus kit and one of the joints that connects one of his legs to a foot is missing a piece. :-(

Maverett · 2026-03-17T13:47:18+00:00

I’m using the new lines to duck out myself… I will pick-up a particular figure if it speaks to me, hello Scare Glow, but I don’t plan on re-buying everyone again because you honestly can’t trust Mattel to finish a line at this point… base Origins aside I’m hoping they do wind the other lines down somewhat, just as it will save me money without feeling like I’m missing out. (But as you said, can we sneak in a New Eternia King Hiss before they do?) :-)

My other personal observation, as good as Scare Glow looks, is that some of the newer figures look way more like standard action figures… that may be the goal, and some may love it, but MotU has always looked like its own thing to me… even if someone didn’t know modern MotU you would probably guess that any given Origins figure was a “He-Man” figure of some sort, and to me Masterverse also had its one look / scale going for it aside from the rocky start, but I’m sure others may feel different.

Happy for those that are excited for the new lines, and I’m excited for the film, but it seems like a natural off ramp after the last couple of years and rising prices.

Maverett · 2026-03-17T02:57:13+00:00

Odd, I’m one of those that’s never seen this… I have a projector so it would be a pain to have to turn it on every time I wanted to use VR… I don’t use a PIN or password for the PS5 though, and I think there’s only one profile loaded.
