    “Known as the ‘Oscars’ of the toy industry...”.

    At least the Oscars can rely on artistic merit, whereas commoners, like myself, aren’t intellectual enough to grasp the quality and depth of their chosen films.

    The DJ Bumblebee is just a plastic noise box with minimal “play” value at best.

    Which makes it an ideal gift for someone else's kid - preferably someone you're annoyed with!

    i can't believe the fandom has reached a point where we're complaining that a gimmick toy beat out another gimmick toy.

    Industry representatives love a toy that costs almost nothing to make, sells for a massive profit, and is tossed away an hour after it is opened so the kid starts asking for a new toy immediately.

    Wow, Nitro Series toys are already half off before the Bumblebee Movie even hits theaters. Maybe Hasbro should consider not making absolute crap and charging a fortune for it. At $10 this is almost an OK toy. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Transfor...igniters-nitro-series-optimus-prime/902676863

    Yeah these aren't the greatest quality in the world but they are $2 a figure and have 13 points of articulation. Don't tell me Hasbro couldn't sell one of the crappy Star Wars figures for $5 and still make a profit. https://www.walmart.com/ip/The-Corp...Off-Action-Figures-6-pc-Carded-Pack/147484127

    They chose a gyrating noisy hunk of shit as nominee for best toy of the year? I can think of at least five other things that do almost the same thing, but much better. Whoever chooses this stuff is a bunch of complete idiots.
