So we're just about to Summer of '24. Where are you with your collecting/lines/thoughts of hobby? To me, it seems we're still in adjustment down. Not seeing excitement from most I talk to. Many are burned out. Many say they can't afford it anymore. Post anything you want!

As more collectible stuff is hitting Ross you can see how much product is overproduced/artificially demand is. If @Target @amazon @Walmart ever stop mass ordering collectibles causing this glut, then companies like Hasbro, Mattel, etc are going to have some serious $$$ issues.

Liberal Friend tonight: It's very strange the venue wasn't secured. Had to explain to him the dinner is there every year, the same security was used for Biden, Obama, Bush. It's a hotel that people need to be able to access the main lobby. Just proved point for W.H. Ballroom.

NEW: California gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter says she would "fight" the Trump admin after she was asked if truck drivers should be able to read English. Question: Do you believe that English language proficiency should be strictly enforced for truck drivers? Porter: I would absolutely fight the Trump administration... What a wild predicament the left is in. They have to oppose Trump, so they are advocating for truck drivers who can't read road signs.

People pointing out Ross G.I.JOE Retros went from $8.99 to $9.99 to $13.99. Increase of $5 in 5 months. I can tell you if these were $13.99 in the store at Walmart/Target everyone would be buying them. Too many are now conditioned for deep discounts - 50% not good enough.

So in my collectors circle of JOE's and seeing similar in many toy groups, most are saying the same thing. $109.99? This is a $79.99 vehicle/figure at max inflation or not. Many are passing on this due to the price. @HasbroPulse @Hasbro better realize they r pricing out buyers.

I'm wondering if this is sneaky poll to gauge interest in which tank they think the fans want. Obviously it will be between the MOBAT/MAULER and I think this is going to be made to order and not a HasLab (which will be the MORAY IMO) this year but will have nice features/lights.

Doesn't matter your political affiliation if you aren't enraged by this and what else is going on in this nation with the robbing of your hard earned tax dollars that you slave over and work almost 1/3 of your year to pay for this madness to occur that enriches these folks.

youtube.com/watch?v=4qE3q3tg… Just watched this. Most bad @$$ Warhammer 40K stories/animation done IMO. Can't wait for the Amazon series and Season 2 of this if they do another W40K episode.

It doesn't matter who's was going to be elected/running the government these next 4 years, AI is coming for the mass majority of mid level office jobs across all industries and then even more specialized ones later on. It's already begun and will accelerate in the next 2 years.
