Also, why does it have to be signed DVD and not blu-ray?

So you won't open it up and ruin the value.

Probably just the slipcover that's signed. The autographed comic books sound way more valuable.

I just don't see how upgraded metal suits are going to help all that much against someone stronger than Kal-El of Krypton. He could also deck most of the Avengers team without much effort.

To sell new toys?

Seems like toy sales are the big focus of everything. Back when Cartoon Network still aired action shows there was a few that were cancelled because of poor toy sales.

Aren't toys in general not selling well because today's generation of kids only want to play with their iPads?

Rugrats, Dexters Lab, Doug, Rockos Modern Life, are all cartoons from the 90's I loved that I don't ever recall actually seeing toys in Toys R Us for.

The toys I usually saw were: Power Rangers, WWF/E/WCW, Transformers, X-Men TAS, Spider-Man TAS...

No, Marvel Legends and DC Universe figures sale very well. The Young Justice figures were pretty bad.

I read an article that said Star Wars figures and toys were #2 on a list of best-selling toys behind Nerf products at #1. Star Wars Lego sets were listed separately and were at #10 on the list. Can't seem to find that article now. Who knows how accurate it was anyway.

If that's true, why are there so many unsold Star Wars toys from The Force Awakens and Rogue One still on shelves in Walmarts?

Is it because they're overly produced?

Cheap to produce in China. It's also possible they just recycle used parts of toys that didn't make the cut from previous movies.

More so the action shows that aired on Cartoon Network. For example...

https://screenrant.com/symbionic-tit...rtoon-network/

"Titan got competitive ratings with other action shows, but what shut it down was it didn’t have enough toys connected to it. If you don’t have the [toy sales], the studios don’t want to renew for another season."

Funny enough, Toys R Us actually does have the classic Nick toys in stores now. A toy collector/hunter that I watch on YouTube always shows them off. Lots of Rugrats and Hey Arnold in particular.

this

as good as all prior movies are/were, its always been leading to this

[Show spoiler]The Thor Ragnarok end credits scene is Thor and Loki seeing Thanos' ship and the D23 footage has someone walking over a bunch of dead bodies,
assumed to be Asgardians. In the leaked footage you see Thor wind up on the Guardians ship, again probably taking place after Thanos/Black Order attack the Asgardians. The person walking over the bodies is supposed to look like Loki because he's handing the tesseract over but others speculate that it is Corvus Glaive and not Loki.

Thor's new weapon is a big hammer axe which got leaked recently from one of the upcoming action figures and it appears to be made by/from Groot.
So either way, it looks like a lot of Thor's beginning scenes will tie in with the Guardians.

the trailer clearly show's Loki with

[Show spoiler]Tesseract in hand

closer to start of March I'd guess.
Tickets rarely go on sale more than 3-4 weeks ahead in UK so am expecting end of march Listings in all honesty.

The Guardians will surprisingly show up in the final battle just like CG rhinos.

[Rodney-2187]

I love both Guardians movies. I absolutely hate Star Lord’s mustache in the infinity War trailer. No joke, I’d be fine if they removed it Justice League style.

Makes him look like an awkward porn star with that stache he has.

Great. Like this movie won't have enough CGI, and you want to give Star-Lord a case of Superman mouth?

Let Peter keep the porn-stache. It'll be a fitting accessory to his 70's soundtrack.

I see no difference from Peter's mustache in Vol. 2 and how it looks in Infinity War.

I do, it pretty much just looks like a pornstache.

On another note I have a feeling the MCU is going to suffer from superhero fatigue pretty badly once RDJ, Evans, and Hemsworth move on.
