See? This is why we need to make sure the Target toy aisles are all properties that were firmly established in the 80's. If there are not racks of Transformers, He-Man, and Transformers that are somehow also He-Man toys, then we get scared and need an adult.

Saw this on the shelf at Target and it’s like a portal to an utterly unknowable parallel world. As if i was peering into the dimension from Stalker

I get your point but "streamer" or "influencer" being a thing we're making toys about points at a rot at the heart of society that I don't know how we fix

Props to the corporation who made this; they're meeting kids where they are But where they are is a world bereft of imagination; you don't play with car robots or dinosaurs or army guys (or combinations thereof) anymore You play with some white dude who goes :o in every thumbnail
