HASBRO PULSE MONITOR: A NEW PRODUCT?

BREAKING NEWS:

HASBRO PULSE MONITOR: A NEW PRODUCT?

The Hasbro Pulse Con 2021 occured on friday and saturday, and there were many awesome action figures reveals. Mighty Morphing Power Rangers monsters, Ghostbusters proton packs, more G.I.Joe characters, X-Men the animated series figures and Weezer playing songs made us wonder for a second “Wait, what year is this?”, but overall it was a great event! We had a watch-along with some friends in the community and had a good time. Another event is scheduled on 10/27, but only for Pulse premium members.

ToyFarce heard from an anonymous source (don’t worry, Robert G., you secret is safe with me!) that Hasbro might reveal a new product during that event: the Hasbro Pulse Monitor!

The Hasbro Pulse Monitor will be a wearable device that syncs to your Hasbro Pulse app, with several never-before-seen features, such as:

- Reminders to not miss any items when they ‘drop’, or to remind you to ‘FOMO’ on Haslab projects.

- Checking your heartrate/body temperature after you miss a pre-order to evaluate if you need to get help to cope with it. A therapist will be available at all time in the app.

- Spousal alerts*, to warn your significant other if you spent more than expected. If you heart rate rises up when placing your orders, an automatic notification will be sent. (* This feature can be disabled at any moment).

- Alexa enabled, to automatically order tissues and play comforting music if you miss out on something. Just say “Alexa, I missed a pre-order” and we’ll take care of the rest.

No info on how the device will look like yet. Release date not communicated yet.

Special thanks to Robert Gines, ToyFarce Super Fan on Facebook, for the idea and the mock ups!

JNCO MAKING A COMEBACK, SO YOU CAN HAVE YOUR HASLAB SENTINEL AS A POCKET FIG!

BREAKING NEWS:

JNCO MAKING A COMEBACK, SO YOU CAN HAVE YOUR HASLAB SENTINEL AS A POCKET FIG!

Last week, an ex-student from a fashion/design school from New York, working for PWM industry (@playing_with_myself) revealed during an appearance in @highschoolcreations ‘Diorama Talk’ live show that JNCO were planning to make a comeback. It was mentioned that due to the size of the Haslab Sentinel, people might need bigger pockets if they want to have their Sentinel as a pocket fig, and JNCO heard that call. The first part is not even a joke: JNCO are really trying to reintroduce themselves to the world, and want us to shop “groundbreaking wide-leg denim and streetwear that’s unapologetically you”.

This is an actual Facebook ad. This is not a drill.

“Collectible items”. Damn, they really know how to make us want those, right? They’re collectibles!

This is an actual tweet from 2019, so it looks like it’s not their first attempt at a comeback…

LOOK AT THOSE SEX-HAVERS!

Thanks to the cheer size of those pants and pockets, you can now bring your Sentinel along anywhere you go as a pocket fig, whether it is at home, in a park, at work (provided you still have a job after they saw you wear those pants), etc…

It’s called ‘Fashion’, look it up!

“Wheeeeee!”

(I wonder what that guy is up to nowadays… is the professional reconversion easy after being a JNCO model?)

ToyFarce would like to thank Adam, from PMW industry for the reveal (you thought I didn’t hear you, didn’t you?).

More news at 11:00… “Challenge conventionalism. Explore the unfamiliar. Honor individuality.”

MUTANT FIGURES FEELING A BIT UNEASY SINCE ARRIVAL OF THE HASLAB SENTINEL!

BREAKING NEWS:

MUTANT FIGURES FEELING A BIT UNEASY SINCE ARRIVAL OF THE HASLAB SENTINEL!

“There goes the neighborhood” said C. Xavier, a resident from your collection.

The Sentinels are starting to pop up in some collections, and there has been some unrest among the mutant action figures community. ToyFarce interviewed a few representatives of the X-Men about the situation.

You could cut the tension with an adamantium claw…

“We had a great thing going on here”, said Iceman, a long time resident of the mutant shelf. “People had entire shelves dedicated to mutants, with kick-ass displays, and we could really shine. We knew that things might change when they first announced the Haslab Sentinel, but we didn’t know how much it would change.”

The Haslab Sentinel, happily strutting in your collection

Maverick told ToyFarce “We had the best of times. We had our own shelves, but now we’ll have to share it with one of *those*… We’ve seen people displaying the Sentinel fighting mutants on their displays, so now, I guess we’ll have to be in fighting poses, after years of being displayed all together… It’s just not the same… We might have to move to another shelf. Maybe the Avengers one?”

The awesome mutant shelves pictures were provided by the amazing @custombymatchu

We hope we won’t get another Marvel / DC figures situation, where the DC figures had to be moved to a different shelf. We’ll keep you informed as things develop! If anything, we can only give one advice to the mutants in your collection…”GO FOR THE KNEES!”

BREAKING NEWS:

SCALPERS INC. WE GO ABOVE AND BEYOND FOR YOU!

Promotional consideration, paid for by the following:

**ToyFarce does not share the opinions expressed by SCALPERS INC. It looks like there was a glitch in the ad campaign app, and they managed to take advantage of that. Our apologies! Now back to regular programming…

LIFE HACKS: WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR HASLAB SENTINEL BOX?

BREAKING NEWS:

LIFE HACKS: WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR HASLAB SENTINEL BOX?

The Haslab Sentinels have started to show up at people’s doors, and with them comes an enormous box (and shipper box!). While most people will probably either recycle the cardboard box or display the figure inside of it (MIB collectors), some collectors may be wondering “what to do with that gigantic Haslab Sentinel box?”. Here are a few ideas for you!

AN AWESOME DOG HOUSE/CAT FORT!

Don’t be fooled by the depressed look on that puppy, he’s actually very ecstatic about getting to live inside a Haslab Sentinel box!

The other cats from your neighborhood will be 100% jealous when they see your cat’s fort!

SOMETHING FOR THE KIDS!

Turn your Haslab Sentinel box into a wonderful speedy car! All you have to do is count on your kid’s imagination, and he’ll be racing in his brand new car in no time!

A car? How about an entire summer cottage? If you ordered more than one Sentinel, you can build an entire playhouse, which your kids will absolutely love!

FOR A PERSON!

Do you have annoying friends? Just put them in the box and ship them somewhere far, so you don’t have to deal with their crappy personality anymore!

Help the ones in need! Donate your Haslab Sentinel box to a homeless person so that they can feel like they live in a penthouse. You’ll feel good about doing something nice! (Also works for yourself, if your wife kicked you out after your 5 Sentinels arrived)

If you have more than 5 Haslab Sentinels, you can even build a small apartment, and rent it, to make that Haslab money back!

More news at 11:00… Just wait until you see the Galactus box!

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF! DAYS AFTER THE END OF THE HASLAB CAMPAIGN, GALACTUS GETS DESTROYED!

BREAKING NEWS:

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF! DAYS AFTER THE END OF THE HASLAB CAMPAIGN, GALACTUS GETS DESTROYED!

We all remember this…

Last year, a few days after the last Star Wars Haslab campaign for the TVC Razor Crest ship ended, the ship was completely and utterly DESTROYED in the Mandalorian TV series. They say lightning never strikes twice at the same time, right? Well…

Remember this?

How could we forget… (Sorry for bringing back that pain)

ToyFarce received the anonymous tip that in an upcoming coming book from Marvel Comics, supposed to come out this wednesday, Galactus will be randomly completely and utterly DESTROYED in a similar way. First we will see Galactus just standing in a big field next to some rocks, and an orange/pink laser will come out from the corner of the frame, and obliterate the Devourer of Worlds.

*PEW!* (re-enactement)

*KABOOM!* (re-enactement)

It is a good thing that the Rancor already met his demise in the Return of the Jedi (Spoilers!), but we would advise any remaining Rancors NOT to hang out in a big field next to some rocks when the next Haslab Star Wars campaign will be ending… We’ve been fooled twice already!

More news at 11:00… be careful of orange lasers coming from the corner of the screen/page!

BREAKING NEWS:

SCARED OF YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER’S REACTION WHEN A 30 LBS SENTINEL BOX SHOWS UP AT YOUR HOUSE? WE HAVE YOUR BACK!

The Sentinels are coming! The Sentinels are coming, guys! This week, lots of collectors have started to receive notifications from FedEx about a certain shipment coming from Hasbro!

Read that again… “Weight: 30 lbs / 13.61 kgs”. Oooof…

While some collectors clearly have no clue what 30 lbs would feel like and are already asking for help from their relatives to pick it up (true story), others started to fear the reactions of their significant others when that huge, heavy box would show up at their door.

WORRY NOT! ToyFarce and The Sonny Channel have your back! Pick one of the following options for an easy, guilt-free reception of your Haslab Sentinel, with no questions asked!

PRINT THIS:

Print this and slap it on the box when it shows up!

SECRET FINAL STRETCH GOAL? BRING GALACTUS EVERYWHERE WITH YOU!

BREAKING NEWS:

SECRET FINAL STRETCH GOAL? BRING GALACTUS EVERYWHERE WITH YOU!

First of all: YAY! WE DID IT! Congratulations to the Marvel Legends team! It turns out, if you provide us with huge amazing figures, we’ll buy them!

GALACTUS COMETH… (in like, a year or something. Fall 2022)

But he’s not coming along! We unlocked all 3 heralds, Nova, Silver Surfer and Morg…

Along with a Dr Doom head! A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one! I love me some Doom.

We are about 12 hours away from the end of the campaign, and ToyFarce received an anonymous tip about an extra surprise stretch goal. The source demanded to remain anonymous. (Don’t worry, @sonnyplayswithtoys from The Sonny Channel on Youtube, your secret is safe with me!). We received an encrypted email with the following pictures…

Introducing… THE GALACTUS CARRIER! Unlocked at 25,000 backers, allegedly!

The Galactus Carrier is made of durable material, and will enable you to bring your HasLab Galactus with you on all your adventures!

The details are amazing, with Habsro logos…

Galactus heads,…

… and an exclusive design in the back! (Product not final).

You’ll be sure to make everybody jealous when going for a stroll in a park with your HasLab Galactus, inside his Galactus Carrier!

And, as is tradition, Sonny from The Sonny Channel, known for his Foiled Customs company and his contacts in Hasbro that provide him with figures immediately after each reveals, has already received one, and was seen showing it off in the Texas area.

Actual picture!

At time of writing, Galactus has 23,825+ backers (which is more than the Sentinel did!). Hopefully, we can crush that final stretch goal in time! 12 hours left! We cannot wait to go on long evening walks with Galactus…

Special thanks to Sonny for the idea and the pictures!

REVIEW: HASBRO’S MARVEL LEGENDS RETRO COLLECTION DR. DOOM!

TOYFARCE REVIEWS:

HASBRO’S MARVEL LEGENDS RETRO COLLECTION DR. DOOM!

It’s Wednesday, you know what that means… ToyFarce reviews!

CALL FOR FOUR! FANTASTIC FOUR!

Last week, the Marvel Legends team announced a new Retro Fantastic Four wave, so I figured it was time to maybe open that figure, which had been on my “pile of depression” since the beginning of the year. I never really planned to keep it MOC, but the nostalgia value of that packaging made me keep it mint for a while, to appreciate and enjoy it. I actually had the ToyBiz version from 1994 when I was a kid, so it definitely brought up some nostalgia (even though the old one had a really crappy cape and ‘arm elongating action’).

It comes in a sleeve! So fancy!

Nostalgia packaging goodness!

Back of nostalgia packaging goodness!

Ok… Time to open it… *inhales deeply*…

Bask in the glory that is Doom, the ruler of Latveria!

That Retro collection Dr. Doom is a beautiful figure. It mostly re-uses the sculpts from a previous Doom, but with the same color scheme as the old ToyBiz figure from the 90’s. Great articulations, there’s even slits in the tunic’s “skirt”, which allow him to do the split. My only nit pick is with the ankle articulations, mine are a bit stiff and I can’t really place the feet at a correct angle, because it would be between 2 hinges to have him stand up correctly. Also, it seems the piece holding the foot is a bit small, so moving the feet back and forth too much feels like it’s going to break.

The textures on the tunic are insane!

The sculpts on the armors, with all the hinges and bolts look amazing too.

I am Victor Von Doom!

The headsculpt looks great, even if crooked inside the hood (common issue, it seems). There is a soft goods collar piece.

Classic Marvel Legends pose!

Accessories include extra hands, 2 books about the magic and dark arts (I assume), a ultimate nullifier, green magic effects, and jet fire effects.

So this is how I can set my hands on fire? Fascinating…

HEY! DR. DOOM! HEY!

WHAT ARE YOU READING? TELL ME!

UUURRGH…

A book about how to strangle people from afar.

An Ultimate Nullifier! This will come in handy against Galactus… Soon…

Dr. Doom’s gun was in his holster in the packaging, so I assumed it was just sculpted on it. Turns out it’s an actual gun that can be removed!

STOP! Or Dr. Doom will shoot!

UNLIMITED POWER!

You can also turn your Dr. Doom into a Doombot by cleverly removing his cape!

I must go, my planet needs me.

I’M NO LONGER THE HOOD! I AM NOW THE CAPE! - *sigh*

ALL HAIL DR. HOOD!

DOOM!

Trying to recreate that epic panel from the comic book, ToyFarce style…

NAILED IT!

More news at 11:00… FOOL! Doctor Doom toots as he pleases!
