"It's a spectacular moment for our company, for the industry and for collectors. The things we're doing with the PREM1ERE and NFL Honors Gold Shield patches deepen and strengthen connections and storytelling. We're enhancing fan experience."
The new trailer for Masters of the Universe goes deeper into the ascension of Adam Glenn as he transforms from mild-mannered Earthling to He-Man, super-powered defender of his father's home planet Eternia.
"If I can dream it, then I can do it; I've got my girls with me, there's nothing to it," Fifth Harmony sang in their official Barbie anthem, 'Anything Is Possible.' Unfortunately, that didn't turn out to be true for attendees of Barbie Dream Fest, which is currently running in Fort Lauderdale, FL, from March 27-29. Fans are comparing the event to notorious convention disasters like the Glasgow Willy Wonka Experience, DashCon, and Fyre Fest.
The C-3PO head was the top lot at the auction, which also saw the harpoon gun used by the actor Robert Shaw in the classic movie Jaws, accompanied by its original case, fetch 327,600 dollars.
Inside, the garage is warm and bright. Fluorescent lights hum overhead. Sunlight slips through a single window and lands on the curve of a long gray-and-orange racetrack. The thirty-three feet of plastic run nearly the length of the space, perched on folding tables and reinforced with wooden rails and black mesh safety netting.

The hottest toy of 1998 was sort of adorable, and sort of annoying. It couldn't do much - couldn't do anything, really - but it could look at you, it could say some nonsense phrases, and it seemed uncannily aware of the world around it. That's all Furby needed to pretty much take over the world.
Just a short walk from the Yoda Fountain next to the Presidio Starbucks, the tightly curated store has a fair share of "Star Wars" merch but is a far cry from a toy shop. The first thing you see upon entering isn't the $2,000 replica Darth Vader helmet but rather a room full of wine from grapes grown at the exclusive Skywalker Ranch estate in Marin County, plus satellite vineyards in Italy and France.
Sony Music Entertainment Japan and Sony Pictures Entertainment now officially own 80 percent of the Peanuts franchise. The companies have closed the deal, which was officially announced in December 2025 when it was still subject to regulatory approvals, for $460 million. Sony Music Japan has owned 39 percent of Peanuts since 2018, so the Sony subsidiaries are essentially buying 41 percent of the franchise from Canadian firm WildBrain with this transaction.
It was fun, as Pokopia got nearer to release, watching people realize that the human-looking character you're playing in this Animal Crossing-meets-Viva Pinata game is in fact a Ditto in disguise. There's something peculiarly creepy about that, especially given the ambiguity about what might have happened to Kanto ahead of this game.
"I came up with the concept of the girl with the smoking gun," Livermore told Riot Fest in a 2021 interview. "I can come up with ideas and relay them to an artist, but I can't draw at all. I went to Chris Appelgren, one of my main co-conspirators at Lookout!, and told him what I was envisioning. He drew it, but it wasn't quite right yet, so he drew it again, and everybody said, 'Yeah, that looks cool, but she looks too much like Chris's girlfriend,' which she did. The third time he drew it, that's the cover that became famous and is now on a whole lot of t-shirts."
I don't remember when was the last day I did not think about Pokémon at all. In the 30 years since Pokémon debuted in Japan with the 1996 release of Pokémon Red and Pokémon Green for Nintendo Game Boy, the franchise has taken over the globe with its animated shows, mobile games and highly coveted trading cards.

Like the Sanrio crossover items that were introduced in the game's 1.9.0 update, the Splatoon items are locked behind Amiibo, which means you'll first need to scan a compatible figure before you can purchase the new furniture in the game. Fortunately, it's very simple. Here's a rundown on how to get the new Splatoon furniture. Don't forget to also check out our Animal Crossing: New Horizons guide hub for more helpful guides.
