When I see these characters I don’t even see characters anymore I just see the actors. You know what I mean ? What happened.

Hahahaha, I too remember doing that at my local Kmart.

I do the same thing now

Did that with the Terminator 2 figures, those sold out the second they came in

I remember going to Walmart one time as a kid and I saw a rare TESB Cloud City Luke and his hand could come off. Never bought it as some other kid came over and took the figure claiming that it was an "army man"

@@samcortez420 I too remember Kmart, such a long time ago

And then they added lizzo🤦‍♀️

It is not just that but they also overly done them and saturated the market, i mean the sheer amount of Grogu merch alone is way overdone, they did sell at first but than once everyone had it, people were like ok we are done. like they have to realise the collectors market while well was popular it is still a very niche limited market.

That Greef Karga is also a Credit Collection figure, which is a silly repaint gimmick. They are not popular amongst collectors

Pretty much, yes! I can't comprehend just how stupid you have to be to do that. If they played their cards right, they could've earned billions. Aaand they still could still make woke stand-alone original movies if they so desired for ESG points, just not in their major IPs.

@@donlalo2002 Hello

And yet they're polluting store shelves and random landfills. Oh the irony

A headless chicken running around with a laser gun for a head shooting random post-it notes is the executive director.

Yeah ,hasbro should at least had use the comic designs, i think more children might had been more interested

Who the F can afford Transformers anymore? That was my thing. That's my favorite franchise from the 80's & I started collecting right from the start. But I had to pretty much totally quit. They are now grossly over-priced. $19.99 was my limit for a deluxe but they had to push it to $24.99. Even if I have the money I just can't bring myself to pay that price. How many kids can afford to pay $24.99 for a toy that, in reality, is not worth more than $7.99?

Thank you. These toys look wilted and miserable rather than cool and actually playable for kids. Most of the time, they HOPE most sales are going to ADULT COLLECTORS which is why they look more like they intend them to stay unopened than played with but like so many things, current Disney doesn't understand the collector market and assumes 'fans' will buy anything with their name stamped on it. Even the most famous figures talked about were made with the intention to be played with first and foremost.

My thoughts exactly, even if the Jurassic World sequels are mediocre, they still make a lot of sales, and I still am a consumer for the Jurassic stuff lol

Friendly reminder that we’re all meant to be recycling our straws and bottles, yet Disney are pumping out thousands of tonnes of plastic per year which they will then send to landfill.

I give it a year or so and they'll be shoved into large boxes and sent for recycling into more useful stuff like protecting cables from the elements or garden furniture!!

The problem is Ollie's never lowers their prices. Except maybe once a year for a holiday sale. If they would lower the prices or put the crap on clearance, I'm sure toy customizers like myself could use some of those figures.

@sci-fi.tsunami I still go their for fodder bodies $10 isn't too terrible depending on what you need

I still can't believe they made an Eternals movie. I've been reading superhero comics for over 3 decades. Not only can I not remember a single Eternals story, I can't name more than two Eternals. Sometimes I forget they even exist. Is it any wonder that a movie about them directed by someone who'd never done a movie of that type turned out to be boring, unloved and also forgotten about?

It sucks, because the whole wave was really awesome. Instead of reusing parts like most legends, they had all unique molds, bright colors that popped, and excellent likenesses. I absolutely loved the wave.

I still have full endcaps of eternals figures at my local Walmart, still at full price

Waste? Honestly it is a great toy,the only problem could be the price but a gogru that moves should sell better

@LaloSalamancaGaming69 No. No one wants to own an icon of brainwashing propaganda. That's the reason for all this.

@@LaloSalamancaGaming69 Yeah your right. Sorry for my word choice is not precise enough.

Read this about Harrod's department store, in London, England. The ultimate insult of a product is when it is marked down, displayed next to the entrances and exits-- and few to none are shoplifted.

If they sell alcohol is Bud Light still there!

*"WE'RE HERE! WE'RE QUEER! AND WE'RE COMING FOR YOUR CHILDREN!"* They are screaming their plan in the streets. You go after the children as the older generation, the resistance, slowly dies off. They are playing a long game. They know they can & will slowly turn majority of the population GAY. I'm just happy that I was smart enough to never have children. I don't have to worry about it.

I'm old enough to remember when it was the other way around, i.e., when Michael Eisner ran Disney. I bet the shareholders who voted out Eisner in favor of Bob "I want to be President of the United States! Bring in the Woke! They'll get me to the White House!" Iger, are REGRETTING this.

I don’t think it’s just that. A part of the problem if I remember is that Disney has just started overproducing stuff because in the past collectors used to snap up stuff en masse. They now just overproduce and when you combine that with things like consumer burnout, political issues, bad marketing of their toys and occasionally bad pricing in some s cases you get what you see here. Also the fact that they keep pumping out character after character for marvel and such. There’s only so many characters people actually care enough to buy an action figure of. No one will buy a figure of *insert random D tier character of a Disney franchise here* and yet they make hundreds of thousands of them. I don’t think it’s necessarily just the politics as much as bad business and bad product.

@@CanaryGamesESCMarvel Comics and Disney (via its subsidiary, Marvel Studios) is under the delusion these "random D-tier characters" could and should be well-known A-tier ones, and keep Astroturfing these D-tier characters in place of the (straight white male) A-tier ones they already have.

@@drhkleinert8241 Whoa! THATS a spicy take!

Disney isn't losing a cent on these unsold toys. Disney licenced the rights to Hasbro at some point then Hasbro renewed them in 2013 and 2020 for x amount of years. Basically Disney gets a fixed amount every year regardless of how well the merch sells it's up to Hasbro to sell enough to make back that yearly licencing fee. You can say a flat fee is a bad idea because of what happened with Star Wars toys back in 1977 but it's been a long time since a licenced toy was a massive seller.

Itt: damage control from disney simps

@@Ushio01 Yes, the loss is only by the buyers of the license and the producers of the items, Disney owns NO factorys for to produce Disney items (its like the NBA or NFL fan stuff, the Organisations dont produce these fan stuff in own factorys)

If they have ever bought hasbro, Transformers and Gi Joe would have the same fate as sw and marvel

If I'd known, I would have sent some down to you since your neck of the woods was deprived of some really good figures.

@@DuskFalconus In one video he mentions getting recycled for parts but that could be wrong I suppose

​@@thatboyandhismusic88 There might be a little bit of that, but the problem is a lot of the plastics toys are made of can't really be recycled as it degrades during the process. On top of being more expensive than producing new plastics so it's not really worth doing. And there simply isn't much that can just be reused in a million Han solo figures, So typically unsellable stock will just be quietly shuffled out the door.

It goes like this: 1) line the toys up on the fence along with the Bud Light cans 2) open fire

They get handed down to discount stores until it hit’s liquidation

I wonder how much they paid for the content? I bet employees are likely moaning that they are getting more garbage that cogging up the shelves!!

Someone got to keep the ghosts in check!!

What it shows is that collecting toys is a dying industry....kids don't play with them as much as they used to & adults are either hitting the price threshold, they no longer have room or they are at the point in their lives where they are not able to buy toys. Star Wars is not a "dead brand"....the toy industry needs to rethink its business model.

​@@robertdickson9319it could be that they got multiple copies of the the same character and just don't want any more because they barely look different from one another

@@robertdickson9319 Things are too expensive now. Cost of living etc. Here in the Uk our country is bankrupt. National debt is now greater than our output for the first time since 1961 and mortgage rates are climbing. People dont seem to have the spare cash they used to in order to spend on fun things. And those black series figures are superb, they used to sell like mad here at higher or low prices, but not anymore. Star Wars has been badly damaged, and prices etc are hurting people. Lastly I think all the older collectors like me who have been with the films since 77 have more or less got all they want or have room for....They made a push to tell us they did not want us around as we were too set in our ways, too old, let the past die etc, and so we left. But these are the people that had the most cash to spend....pretty stupid, but thats Disney and now its all coming home to roost. I hope they continue to shed money and end up crashing and burning...it will be fun to watch.

Collectors know Disney toylines aren't genuine toylines. Sure, the build, packaging, articulation, paint apps, presentation, thematic era and sculpt are great, but real collectors know Disney will only roll out Original Trilogy merch to bait other people into buying their stuff again, not as a genuine collection that you can complete as a toyline. Collectors know this, and all of them are sick and tired of being baited into owning only ...half... of a toyline.

​@robertdickson9319 star wars is a dead brand they chase off the fans who buy the merchandise and sell crap. There's better stuff can collect

Hadbro is getting credit back from Disney

Can I watch with you I've always wanted a watch company have a mental break while sitting next to somebody with a lawn chair and some beer you like to join me edit this is also my plans for the Apocalypse

A little reminder that Hasbro owns power rangers and they gonna ruin it big time.

They need to make figures people want. Instead they make shit no one ask for.

My guess ESG money balances it out.

What did the 70's have? I know Star Wars was 77 & I think Mego & Micronauts started in the 70's. The 12" GI Joes were from the 70's but everybody loves the 80's line with Cobra. Most of the awesome stuff that's still around came out in the 80's.

@@sci-fi.tsunami yeah, I was born in 75, and 80's clearly dominates the toy world. He-Man, GI Joe, Transformers, TMNT, M.A.S.K., Star Wars, etc... Still popular today. Videos games too!

God, the GI Joe and Transformers aisle in the 80s were like dropping cows into the raptor pen

90's kid and Star Wars figures greatly improved in the 2000's. Tonka will never be the same though as the longest time you could get metal trucks and heavy equipment for dirt/sand boxes. Stopped receiving them as presents when they went all plastic

@@finkamain1621 Tonka made a line of Mad Max style vehicles and figures in the 80's. It was awesome! I think it was called "Steel" or something.

I think an original and unopened Toy from 1977 is more worth than an original movie used item from the last Movies...

Pretty much, yes

The real Buzz.

This one does. Compared to the Toy Story toys that came out during Toy Story 3 thirteen years ago, these new ones suck.

That just means they have to chops half the profit maybe not even half given other partners to produce and ship etc not just branding. Thats why it isnt done too often only initially to hype for a new release of a movie that no one hasnt seen yet but know the title.

That reminds me of Spaceballs and their themed toilet paper.

I would have sympathy for some of the stores. They may have made a contract years ago and now keep having to deal with load after load of Disney toys and it takes up retail space that could have been used for toys from franchises that sell well.

And also the employees that constantly have to stock and take down toys that don’t sell.

@@CanaryGamesESC I agree with you on that.

It's more a combination of overproduction due to overordering due to a reluctance to accept that toys are not as popular as they were 10 - 40 years ago. This is more on Hasbro/Mattel & retailers than Disney....Disney already made their money on this stuff.

I dont get it. I am an original fan from 77 and in the Uk. If I was there I would be grabbing the Chewie figures, the Tarkin, the Boush Leia and so on at cheap prices. None of the new stuff but anything from the classic films I would go for. Its amazing that even those are no longer selling out...the will be the ones people will pick at some point, its the fact that they are even there that is sad.....

@@Simon-xc5oy Me too, i am 58 now and the only items i would buy were the 77 figurines, Tarkin is a part of my childhood. And how the times chages? 1978: COOL, youre the greatest, you have a Luke Skywalker figure! 1983: COOL, youre that great, Buddy! You owns a AT-AT model! Today: Haha, youre such a looser, your parents bought you "The last Jedi" toys, hahaha!

With Hasbro, it's best to wait for a sale on their figures at this point because of all the price gouging

@@MADMONEYMAN5000 yea, last few Hasbro stuff I got, was a little disappointed. The joints look like shit and they just keep going up in price and no extra anything, hands heads or accessories. They're almost as much as a NECA figure

I was walking through a store the other day and checked out the toy aisle. I was thinking of have my own little Justice League on top of my of my bookshelves. Getting all the figures I would have wanted would have cost me like $150. Do parents really want to spend so much money on toys for their kids?

This is a big reason why toys are failing as an industry...we have reached (or are really close to) the point where toys are no longer affordable for the masses. The price increases on these toys over the past decade outstrips inflation and that is unsustainable.

@@juanbautista7214 I'm at the point where Hasbro will have to be cut from being part of my collecting unless I can get their stuff on the cheap. And NECA does some good work. Which is why I don't mind paying more for some of their figures sometimes

*losing money If you need to remember the spelling remember the opposite word has the same number of letters: Tight/Loose - 5 letters Find/Lose - 4 letters

Because *YOU MUST* buy them or else you are racist! You need to support the strong, independent, *BLACK* boss-babes! That's what life (these days) is all about. Raising up the strong *BLACK* wimmins as the war against white males rages on. F'in insanity! Screw Disney! Let'em crash & burn! Nothing lasts forever & all good things must come to an end.

It’s possible that these are being created due to some contractual obligations. I don’t know for certain but I wouldn’t be surprised if Disneys deals with toy companies involved requiring a certain number of toy lines and this is just filler or something to meet a quota

This stuff is being created based upon the pre-release expectations of the movies performance. Based upon the performance of the first Black Panther movie as well as the general LACK of tie-in items for it, the expectation for the second movie was high. They guessed wrong.

Disney made record profits last year - they are no where near bankruptcy...Hasbro already paid Disney for all of these toys.

@@robertdickson9319 Tell it to the shareholders, Disney stock has been dropping in value for years and is still going down, they could do with some good news and Bob Eiger is desperate for some to give them.

Let's be honest. Disney is too big to fail at this point, so they stopped trying

@@noahmaldonado5461 No such animal, it's just a question of when will they spend their last billion and who will the blame when the money runs out?

Muahahahahaha! Detritus.

The fact that they're selling a Shuri Copter and not a Thanos Copter is insulting

Went to one for the first time a few months back. It's a combination of the two. Where yes they aren't wrong in that it's reasonably cheap, and yet I'd be hardpressed to find something that stood out for me that screamed "buy me!".

Generally speaking ollie's is a shit hole....the ones in the video seem to be step above what I've seen

Its not about bigger/too big, its about the politics to get woke and crawling in front of minoritys.

How about a 4 for not even knowing Love and Thunder aired when it did and only knew about it on the last day of its airing?

Guess that makes me 5. (Or 1.5 I dunno.) I can't say I hate it. Because it makes me feel only apathy. What an idiotic nothing of a movie. I didn't see it in cinema that's for fucking sure.

80's D&D cartoon was awesome! I'm buying the toys, even though they are super overpriced, and honestly not very good. But what are the chances we'll ever get another chance at this line?
