Xbox 360 Core for $100

360core.jpgAmazon.com is listing for a very very limited quantity of 1,000 units, Microsoft’s Xbox 360 for only $100.00 US. The console normally retails for $299.99.

Of course there is a CATCH! The purchase must be made from the Amazon Customers Vote page, and it will go onsale at 11 AM Pacific time November 23rd. Thats Thanksgiving day. Tomorrow.

Remember, this may only be the Core pack, but at this price, the seperate purchase of a wireless control, headset, cables, and hard disc drive still net you a savings against the $399.99 premium.



Powet Toys: Classics Mirage


Fresh off the shelf, here is a quick impression of Mirage from Transformers: Classics!



Gargoyles Comic #2 street date

Gargoyle statue giving oralIt’s been 5 months today since the first issue of the new Gargoyles comic was released and we still haven’t seen a second issue. Originally planned to be one issue every 2 months this comic has been delayed apparently because the art took longer to complete. By that logic shouldn’t we expect the same 3 month delay for all subsequent issues?

Regardless of the excuse Diamond Comics has finally listed Gargoyles #2 to be distributed on November 29th 2006.

The publisher’s production schedule states the comic is delayed until December. Frankly Diamond Comics has a good reputation and Slave Labor has had errors stated on their site about this comic before. When it was originally delayed Diamond Comics reflected this while Slave Labor made no mention it.

I wouldn’t stake my reputation on a November 29th date at this point though this is a more plausible date than we’ve seen before. More information and a review will be forthcoming as the comic is released.



Problems with She-Ra S1V1 DVDs?

Masters Of The UniverseYesterday, He-man.org posted the following:

On November 9th, we provided you the contact information to BCI in case you had any DVD problems.
Some fans are having a problem with disc 4 from the recent She-Ra: Princess of Power S1V1 release.
BCI has released the following info in regards to that particular issue:

“BCI has recently been alerted to a possible defect with the 4th disc contained within the She-Ra: Princess of Power – Season 1, Volume 1 DVD collection.
We have thoroughly investigated this matter and have determined that the issue, which involves a “freeze” at the layer break of the dual-layered disc, affects approximately 14% of the consumer DVD players out in the market.
We will be replicating new discs and will be able send replacements to anyone who is experiencing problems of this nature.
Please contact Vanessa Baltodano and submit your name and shipping address and we will send out a replacement disc in the coming weeks.
We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and appreciate the continued support for Ink & Paint and BCI/Eclipse.”

So if you’ve noticed this issue or not, you may want to get the DVD replaced anyway. If you haven’t noticed it, it is just because you have an affected DVD player. Should you want to play it on an affected DVD player, you’ll run into the same issue as mentioned.



More Revoltech Prime images, now featuring Ultra Magnus

revoltech1.jpgTFW2005 points us to here, where there are new clear images of Revoltech Prime. I have attached them below so you can see for yourself. I believe that Prime will be number 19 in the Revoltech series.

Also an image surfaced here, showing an exclusive repaint of this figure as Ultra Magnus.

Its pretty much a guarantee that I’ll be hunting these two figures down.
