LOL, I legitimately stopped at multiple Gamestops in Des Moines today and I can confirm no signs of this Jack Joker yet. :p

The newest thing I saw on my run today from Gamestop was Marvel Legends Abomination. They all had the Page Punchers Flash and Hal, but no Jessica sightings yet (or they already sold).

Oddly two different Ross stores that I stopped at in the area and had removed ALL action figures from the store since I was there last week when there were still a ton. That was both a new development and extremely disappointing. I thought it was odd at the first one, but didn't think too hard on it. When I saw the same thing at the second one it was obvious that something was going on. Both stores had dozens last weekend in the form of Star Wars Black Series, Retro Card Joe Classified, NECA stuff (ET, Alf, Kong, movie TMNT, etc), Loyal Subjects TMNT, AEW, Spin Masters DC stuff, DragonBall Z, anime statues, Funko POPs, Simpsons, some Super7 stuff, etc. ALL were gone today without a single trace remaining anywhere in the stores. As you might imagine, figures are the only reason I've ever gone there. I don't think that I've ever bought a single other thing from Ross. There were still some cheap kids toys, but nothing adult collector oriented anymore.

Asked the Google AI when Todd’s presentation during Toy Fair would be. It didn’t know. Just said New York Toy fair was between 2/14/26 and 2/17/26. To be honest, I’m getting a little antsy for announcements. Been a while since we’ve seen anything new. At this point it’s probably just confirmation for the various rumors.
 
The lull in McFarlane action figures does seem strange. Maybe they are having a hard time getting products from where they are being produced. The lull in release has been nice right now, since where I live in it is cold and there is tons on snow everywhere.

They released the DC Multiverse figures, then the Collector Edition figures and recently the Page Punchers figures. Nothing else has been announced for pre order and there is nothing in the Drop Zone on Entertainment Earth. I'm still looking for some of the platinum figures, but I haven't seen anything new each week I go to check.

It already feels like the end. There are products showing on sale on the MTS website, like they are cleaning out the warehouse. I hope a ton of figures don't get dropped at the same time. There haven't even been showings of any new figures from the rumor lists.

I was thinking about the Joker figure from Batman 89. I hope this doesn't happen, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is a SDCC release like Beast Boy was last year.
 
The lull is frustrating, but it could be any number of things causing it. Not the least of which is the start of convention season. Next week is obviously Toy Fair. But Todd usually attends both MegaCon in Florida and WonderCon in California in the month of March. WonderCon seems to be a particular favorite of his, usually showing upwards of 20 7” scale figures. There could also be problems with factories, shipping, and any number of other things related to capitalism sorting itself out. Also Chinese New Year starts Feb 17th and lasts about two weeks.

I’m not overly worried about it yet. The volume of rumors is still pretty substantial. Hopefully Todd will continues to produce up through September and start the draw down in October for Q4. Finishing up before Mattel takes over in 2027.
