Is Mega actually fucking dead now? Will Mattel Brick shop EVER put out anything other than Hot Wheels? Why is Mattel rebranding Halo sets if they have not announced anything new? Will they ever do anything other than Halo?

They never should've lost the Pokemon license. I hope their motion builds wasnt their fault

thanks for making a new thread

Pretty sure it wasn't Mattel's call to make. Besides, IPs tend to migrate back and forth between Mattel and Lego over the years. I'm sure they'll get it back in time.

This

I'm surprised they held onto the license for so long. Considering that Mega and Lego have shared the following licenses:

Pirates of the caribbean
Marvel
TMNT

The only place where Lego has outdone Mega is obviously Marvel

Don't forget about Spongebob Squarepants

What do you guys think about the Narnia and King Arthur lines?
>>
>>11657698
coo monsters, the Narnia line had some cool beastmen iirc

Mattel used Mega as a loss leader for years.
I love the details and possibility as well as the size and would have welcomed civvies.
Also the Beyonders and Vikings had potential if developed.
But there were constant fuck ups.
The shifting scale of the HALO figures as well as lines that just died.
I am particularly disappointed in the lack of Scully for x-files and lack of more Colonial Marines (and possibly a Ripley and power loader.

I will buy Chinese knock offs (missing the modified sets like the Fire fighters though. ) but wish there was more variation (men with hair and female bodies) . The custom parts coming out of Mexico are amazing but postage is butt-splitting rape.
If they don't license all their IP's to LEGO they could come back.
Also a deal with HASBRO to use G.I.Joe and Thunder cats would be amazing

comic con is soon, right

It's either going to be an overpriced "masterbuild" piece of crap like the Squid games set that no one asked for or Hot Wheels.
- I mean they don't want to upset their "business partner" LEGO by releasing better minifigures right?

Did anyone buy that? I didn't see any reviews, even from curious Lego fans. Which is weird because they seem to looooooooooove those new hotwheel sets.

I know it's no use whining over spilled, spoiled and curdled milk, but it is really disappointing that the Kratos was a one-off. No other Sony IPs, no other GoW games or charcters, nothing. >>11666015
They look exhausted.

What exactly is a "dead" toyline?
One that isn't being made or one that isn't being played with?

Never thought in 2026 I'd have in my hands a new unopened Dragons set yet here we are. Fuck me was it expensive though, I don't even want to open it

Well that's like g.I.Joe being "dead" during the time they weren't on shelves - for what.. about 5 years.
Who makes pogs now?
and of course Mighty Max - where we see regular threads.

>>11670011
You're coping hard bro.

Well my collection of OG Dragons sets is complete. I am now sad that I will never own the entire series (meaning all sets from every series)
>>
>>11674701
That's why Matty buttfucked their MEGA line.
So they would get cash from the license
