Honestly, this lawsuit is likely the last straw behind Hasbro stopping funding transformers movies. Just pulling money from other properties for the Disney Behemoth.

[@outpost206]

That would probably be the smartest thing Hasbro has done in a long time. The last couple Transformers movies lost them and the studios a bundle (to put it mildly). The Last Knight lost over $100 million, Bumblebee _might_ have been profitable but not massively so, Rise of the Beasts either lost money or barely broke even (but I highly doubt the the latter), and Transformers: One was a bomb and a half.

[@SlashTheWeasel]

Actually Transformers One was the most successful and popular of the all those movies. The rest, Outpost206, I will agree on. Despite the bad box office return, TF One is seriously good. Critic score 89%, viewer score 98%. I love TF One. It left itself open to so much like rise of the Decepticons and war with Quints so we finally got really good storyline that made my husband want to go out and buy TFs the day we saw it in theatre. Sadly all there is on shelf is JUNK! I'm not buying JUNK. We want same quality as Studio Series/Legacy but Hasbro was lazy and released junk and expected to sell?

[@outpost206]

@@SlashTheWeasel I was only referring to the box office performance. I'm sure the movie is quite good, I have no idea. But even on the LOW end of Transformer One's estimated budget ($75 million), it didn't even gross TWICE that. That is tens of millions short of just "break even" territory. If the budget was on the higher end like others have speculated ($147 million), then the film may very well lose the studios $160+ million when the dust settles. 😬

[@wwiiinplastic4712]

The problem is once you get what you want, it is a long time before they get something you haven't seen yet. I get model kits there when they pick up overstock but they usually only do that twice a year, so I have to wait quite a while to see if the kits are different or more of the same. Books too; they get tons of junk titles. Distribution issues also means you may need to hit all the locations in your area to find everything they bought up. I see stuff in WCBS's videos that I have never seen in the stores in NW Georgia. But then again maybe part of the fun is traveling around to see what you find?

[@rachelcody3355]

there is likely some contract obligations when getting the license to make these toys. I don't think a toy maker is intentionally over making toys knowing it will not sell for some kind of investor scam. They are contracted to make so many units under the license. Also, kids do not want action figures like they did back in the day. Back then the kids would get the toy to play out the movie scene and role play. With computers and video games, they don't do that anymore. Board games are also suffering. All toys are suffering unless it's a ride on toy. Kids just want to be entertained. They don't want some cheap plastic doll when they can go on the computer and get a total sensory overload. Just no competing. The toy collectors is a niche group. Maybe 1 to 3% are collectors. Many collectors are very picky about what they collect too. As you pointed out with the original line. For the kids today, action figures are a fading throwback to mom and dad's generation. Much like the toys of the past.

“We’re Hasbro and WOTC, out of touch with greed…” 🤑

[@goldenbear-hv5yu]

They definitely deserve that. Disney and Hasbro over producing merch that doesn’t sell killed Toys R Us during their bankruptcy plus debt and competition. Amazon may have played a role of shutting down TRU, but it was really Mickey Mouse who slayed Geoffrey the Giraffe!

I love your ollie vids 😍 plz don't stop them 😢

[@StephenCole1916]

Another thing to consider is the inflation situation, people are less likely to buy merchandise as they can't afford it.

[@shimtest]

turns out defrauding investors is a serious crime 🤔

[@piscinaiv7937]

palettes of wasted paper and petroleum products bound for a landfill :(

[@judesheckelberg5135]

A billion Shuricopters. Endless Eternals. Wakandans Forever. Nowhere near enough VAMPs. Well done, Hasbro...well done.

[@SupraDeluxx-ro1qg]

I do love your ollie videos.

[@Jeremiah3-22]

I got some retro Boba Fett figures at Ross for $3.99, and the Black Series Emperor for $5.99, which is $4 cheaper than Ollie's.. Almost got C-3PO for $5.99 also.. but I would still need to find R2. Also need Jedi Luke and Endor Han to finish my 6" Return of the Jedi collection.. oh and that 2pk from Ollie's. I'm not a serious collector for 6" Star Wars, I just want the basics for Return of the Jedi because it's still my favorite movie of the bunch. 👍

[@bentonrp]

Yes, ROTJ is amazing! :)

[@wwiiinplastic4712]

Ollie's is not suffering from a Holdodomor, that's for sure.

[@sci-fi.tsunami]

Hasbro needs to take all that crap back, melt it down & make more Transformers with it. All that plastic could be used to reissue rare figures like Nova Prime, Metroplex, Titans Return Twin Twist, Siege Skywarp & Greenlight etc.

[@IsaacNeeder]

Welcome back to the Ollies Variety Hour...where we ogle alll of the stuff no one will every buy. With a special guest...the Class action lawsuit against battle for allegedly lying about its inventory!

[@enishiyukishiro6751]

unwanted toys, increased price, empty pockets. go figure.

1920s P.T. Barnum: "A fool and his money are soon parted!" 2020s Hasbro: "An investor and his capital are soon parted!"

[@AnthonyBau1]

a ton of wasted plastic

[@QCJSiteB]

Holy….15% of their employee workforce is 1000 people? There’s THAT many people there making this unsellable crap?

[@zillauniverse7208]

Transformers is a bit of a mix bag, their generation figures like Legacy and Studio Series do sell pretty well as there’s high demand for it but their gimmicky cheap disposable slop don’t sell and are usually the ones that show up at clearances stores like Ollie’s.

[@Buffalo31]

The good thing is that while all that stuff stays on the shelves it's not in a landfill.

[@Gruffydom]

They should be suing Disney for killing franchise and merch sales.

[@amatte4611]

Hasbro is absolutely to blame for this debacle and it shows that quantity doesn't quite add up to quality and now people are smart with their dollar and now Hasbro haven't realized their days are coming with continuous improvements with 3d printing technology when the day people can make their own toys/collectibles at home if they wanted to

[@Mouse_Metal]

It´s not Hasbro´s faut Dismalney ordered so many of stuff nobody wants to buy. The lawsuit goes after the small fish while ignoring the massive one.

[@Purplesubmariner]

pretty sure a lot of this "over production"is tied to Disney contract minimum demands

[@bernieoconnor9350]

I guess one of their stockholders just happened to visit an Ollie's.

[@haveanicedave1551]

Make room Ollies. Jaguar will need room for their cars.

[@anonymoustroll2432]

Zendaya should be at Ollies and Rachell Zeggler.

[@artrendon6101]

All this crap and a $100.00 Daredevil figure (Mafex) is sold out everywhere. Disney/Marvel and Hasblo STILL haven't figured out they just need to give people what they want and what THEY want people to want.
