I have a ridiculous love of action figures
but can I just
have
a Legacy/Betrayal Tron action figure
come on guys
his name is in the title
No. Shit.
The worst thing is that they fucking SHOWED us the action figure we want, right at the beginning of the movie…and then they trolled us by refusing to make it a thing.
Disney, you fail at merchandising forever.
ALSO also, god, all my eternal rants about Tron being rendered an NPC in his own series, but I WILL NOT get on that tangent tonight, I swear.
Goddammit, Sam Flynn, just let me have all your toys.
Well, I mean, the original wasn’t really about Tron either. And I know that’s a big source of debate, but the fact remains that the main character was always a Flynn. Taken to hilarious heights in Evolution, when it was a faceless Flynn-like substance.
However that only saves them from not having to make the movie follow him. But what it does not do is excuse them from failing to give us an actual Tron figure.
The really sad and ironic part here is this: TRON was just a video game in-universe, and it was insanely popular. So there’s all that merch and memoribillia because it’s just that insanely awesome to the people in that universe.
However, it’s not so much to the people here. So any toys they could have, and probably would have, made for Legacy or Evo won’t see shelves unless sudden mass popularity due to Tron 3 just because the sales didn’t agree with any toytastic aspirations.
Does that mean I’m not bitter about being without a Tron, Castor, and full size Quorra? Hell no.
Actually, I think I’ll go sob over my figures right now.
UGH! Just the other day, I was sitting here looking at my action figures and thinking, “I would TOTALLY buy a Castor!”
I agree that the main protagonist of the first film is Flynn, I’m not trying to debate that. I’m just saying that, while Flynn is the character whose adventures we (as an audience) follow, Tron is ultimately the Hero of the Grid. He is that archetypal legendary figure that everyone is supposed to be in awe of.
Basically, I feel like this were as if Lord of the Rings had action figures of Frodo, but not Aragorn.
Nah, it wasn’t directed toward you specifically. I was just pointing out that it wasn’t “Tron’s series”.
Again though, you’re right. When your MC and your “hero” are two separate characters, no matter how minor the latter is, you have to make figures for both.
*shakes people* Give me my Tron and give him to me now!
Look, Tron sacrificed himself to save Flynn, can he have a fucking action figure please?

But really I just want an awkward sex scene between Dracula and Gabriel
I’d settle for a mini-franchise series of rollicking international monster-encountering adventures with Van Helsing and Carl.
That would’ve been good too, definitely would’ve watched that
Have you seen The London Assignment?!
I never got to, was it any good? No place near me sold it.
It was good! Not very long, though. Kinda like a mini-movie. D: A friend of mine in another state was discussing the potential adventures of Carl and Van Helsing with me, and when she discovered I hadn’t seen it, she mailed me a copy. <3 I have the absolute best friends.
If I find it anytime soon, I will find a way to pirate it for you legitimately share it with you in a totally legal fashion.

silly profession time
i really, really love action figures and the like
shockpeople can say they’re toys and undermine them all they want, but no matter the cost and production run, they’ll always be itty-bitty art pieces to me
and nothing makes me fidget in my seat harder than a perfect marriage of flawless sculpting and amazing articulation
but unfortunately, most of the franchises i like don’t get much in the way of merchandise for some reason
and when it does
it’s never of the characters i like
a bloo bloo bloo for me, but tears of joy for my wallet and my shelf
sort-of
I REJECT YOUR REALITY AND SUBSTITUTE MY OWN!!!
