Since netflix is going to buy warner brothers, does this mean Mcfarlane will get a chance to get the DC license back? Also with the Netflix money can he finally get that Spawn movie made?
>>11642619How the fuck is the toy license that's already been signed and dealt with related to this?
>>11642620Netflix could kill the entire toy division if they want to.
>>11642622by giving it back to mcfarlane?
Why would they do that when Mattel has more money to pay for the license? That's why they won the bid for it over McFarlane to begin with.
The same mattel that couldn’t figure out how to put out a $20 kpop doll and make everyone billions?
>>11642629They are making a whole crap ton of items for retail next year. These are the more collector focused items. They don't have anything ready to come out this soon, and more kid-focused items never get pre-orders many months in advance like these collector aimed items get. >>11642622Why would they want to? Mattel is many times larger than McFarlane and has a much bigger output of product worldwide. Whoever owns WB will make much more in royalties from Mattel having the master license than it being split between McFarlane and Spinmaster. Any other silly questions?
>>11642620/toy/ is populated by literal retards and third world cretins that can't even fathom basic concepts let alone legalities and copyright. Shit's exhausting having to explain basic concepts like they're literal children.
>>11642711Honestly? The entire site is like this. Blame whoever you want but society as a whole was never the same since 2016 and COVID fucking things over just so those capitalists could make a chunky little profit off the suffering of vital workers
>>11642712You're the perfect example of one of those retard third worlders. Fuck who am I kidding you're probably a fucking bot.
>>11642713You chunking me out or something there, Faggot? Drumpfy royally Fucked Everyone hard with tariffs just raising the prices and the quality practically nonexistant all because domestics couldn't compete with the quality imports deliver that Hasbro and Mattel fuck up on time and time again.
>>11642620We've seen toy licenses suddenly put into limbo due to a change in ownership.Microsoft buying Bethesda delayed/canceled a shitload of McFarlane figures.Microsoft buying Activision killed the Call of Duty license with Jazwares, so they only were able to release halfassed figures that were finished before purchase was finalized. So the 1:18 scale line was never released, along with a bunch of other 1:!2 figures.so who really knows what will happen from Netflix buying WB.Also, did anyone's computer get borked from cloudflare fucking up? My browser crashed and when it went back online, everything was 500 error.
>>11642718Case and point.
>>11642720>Also, did anyone's computer get borked from cloudflare fucking up? My browser crashed and when it went back online, everything was 500 error.They're having another outage as of like 45 minutes ago.
>>11642619>does this mean Mcfarlane will get a chance to get the DC license back?Yes, but he will have to pay big money and get spit roasted by Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters while Reed Hastings whips him.And then they will laugh, say he only gets to make more McStatues like they let him do for Red One before they slap him on the ass and send him back to the Panera Bread parking lot on W Warner Rd where he usually turns tricks.
>>11642619Hard to believe the anons with Todd's teeny peen so deep down their gullet that they believe this nonsense, much like the delusional Snyder Cultist who think it will mean the REEstoration of their precious DCEU.Jesus H. Christ, people.
>>11642736Jesus Christ can't say it enough, retail is already fucked with tariff up charging but thefts are just closing down stores left and right cuz everyone has to get their cake and eat it too. Everyone at every level is at fault for this capitalist greed inflating everything to high hell.
>>11642749Move to China.
>>11642749you're not wrong, blame the neo-lib mindset for 'muh greed is good' society wrecking selfishness, remember (You) need less dolls as the fat cats left and right fuck us all over
>>11642720>Microsoft buying Activision killed the Call of Duty license with JazwaresYes, but that's because the Jazwares figures had lmost no distribution. They wereonly sold online and I think about 20 people bought them. It was probably costing Miscrosoft about as much to keep tabs on them and have people coordinating/approving those ugly things lol. Besides, those two they did release were sooooo bad. Really horrible figures in every way so they likely did us all a major favor. Mattel is one of the top 3 largest toy companies. WB will be making massive amounts in royalties from them and the product will reach many more stores and consumers than any product with McFarlane or Spinmaster did. There is no benefit to canceling their toy license and going with any other company.
>>11642622Nope
>>11642622They do stranger things toys so I doubt they would do that.
>>11642720Microsoft are max Jews who buy shit to just let it sit and rot. The only real issue I see with Netflix is them making Batman a nigger.
Thank fuck James Gunn will be getting fired
ITS HAPPENING
>>11642904>>11642907LUL
>>11642892No, it wasn't because of distribution.It's why i mentioned Bethesda, where a similiar thing happened with McFarlane. They had plans to release Fallout stuff way back in 2020 or 2019 and because of MS buying Bethesda, almost all of their plans were scrapped until probably just recently.Same shit happened with Planet of the Apes license with Mezco. They had plans to release a bunch of One:12 apes and when Disney bought Fox, they suddenly canceled everything.So a change in ownership definitely fucks over the license holders, likely because everything needs to be renegotiated again and the new owner likely wants to charge even more money (despite the license already being paid for) to make some money back from billions dollar buyout.Jazwares releasing what they did was probably because that's the only figures they actually managed to release before the license was suddenly revoked. I think the reason the figures were so wonky is because they couldn't modify anything further without going over the time limit they had.IT seems like they were rushed and they jsut wanted to get some money back on already creating tools + whatever prototypes they already made.Jazwares released their Call of Duty figures in WAlmart and Amazon. Biggest toy stores in North America, plus other stores. The screenshots i posted shows two sets of 1:18 figures + vehicle. And 2 more 1:12 scale figures. So their distribution seemed fine.But that's 4 different companies and maybe Netflix might handle shit different with WB, so it might not affect Mattel.... and Mattel is a big enough company that they could pay whatever extra fees are thrown at them by Netflix.
>>11642892>Mattel is one of the top 3 largest toy companies. WB will be making massive amounts in royalties from them and the product will reach many more stores and consumers than any product with McFarlane or Spinmaster did.is that why mega bloks went broke?
>>11642912What's the point you're trying to argue? Nobody really cares about whatever happened with jazwares and CoD. Point here is Netflix isn't going to dump one of the largest toy makers in the world since their master toy agreement was probably worth hundreds of millions of dollars. What benefit would it have? Going with a smaller company who can't pay as much and who won't be able to get as much product out there?
>>11642907By popular demand from who? Jeets?
>>11642907It's really sad that cultist are so delusional that they will create, and then swallow as the truth, a bad generated fake schoop of xshitter nonsense, when it's so easy to look at the media posted by Netflix since the deal was disclosed in the past 24 hours and see that this is no where in sight.What's the point of you idiots scamming yourselves like this, scamming your fellow cultist and trying to grow your cult with this shit? And all for your Cult Leader, whose last three proposed shows/movies were cancelled by Netflix? Thinking Netflix wants to willing still get cooties form getting into bed with your Cult Leader is the most absurd thing of all when they literally just cancelled his most recent project the week of Thanksgiving. THERE ARE NO "IN PRODUCTION" SNYDER PROJECTS AT NETFLIX RIGHT THIS MOMENT, PRETENDING HIS SHIT SHOW DCEU IS 'NEXT' IS STUPIDITY AND IDIOCY OF THE HIGHEST DEGREE
>>11642978Sorry you’re retarded and don’t understand the Saudi connections
I was kind of hoping the Saudis would get it. They would wash the gay and black shit out of everything. Now we’re going to get a Casablanca remake with black people and the girl is trans. Hard to say if they’re going to let Gunn continue to cook but I don’t think they’ll oppose Mattel taking over DC again, it was theirs since the early 2000s.
Americans are a joke. You can't enjoy new things and need companies to remake the same slop for you to endlessly consume.
>>11642988Get a new gimmick.
>>11642619do netflix even want the licensing division? all the articles I've read are saying they JUST want the studios and film/tv back catalogue. no mention of stuff like licensing or dc comics publishing etc
>>11643301I’m confused on this as well because wb is getting ready to license characters to universal for their parks
Do you think they’ll let people use the nemesis system in bidyogames now or will it continue to rot?
>>11643301Netflix has been licensing their IP for merchandise for ages. Why are people acting like that's never been a thing? It's very easy money for companies who essentially just have to loosely guide licensees and handle approvals for stuff. Hasn't everyone seen all the Stranger Things, Wednesday, Squid Game merch, food, clothing, etc over the years? If they own WB, they'll probably just keep that licensing/merch department intact to handle all the licensing they'll likely be doing still.
>>11642907Redeem the Snyderverse.
>>11642914I'm responding to this post >>11642620>How the fuck is the toy license that's already been signed and dealt with related to this?And I've given multiple examples that just because a toy license was already negotiated and in the process of being produced and/or released, it can be suddenly ended.And we don't know why exactly. So it may delay Mattel's deal whether they're a multi-billion dollar company or not.Also, a side note about the Disney - Marvel deal, when Disney bought MArvel, Marvel was allowed to keep control of themselves, especially since the Marvel owner became one of the most important people at Disney. This didn't happen with Fox or Activision, hence a shitload of restructuring. Same thing happened with WB/Discovery/ATT... and that might have played a part with ATT/WB ditching Mattel back in 2019.pic of FUCKING FUCK DISNEY. Fucking amazing looking toys and the accessories... oof.
>>11643410Man I hope they put it in an open world Batman game
