The Loyal Subjects’ Game Of Thrones Action Vinyls Now Available At Walmart And Other Retailers
With their expansive Game of Thrones set, TLS has perfectly captured the essence of treachery, tribalism and hedonism, depicted in every episode that viewers have grown to love. Collectors and fans of the cable series can recreate their favorite scenes, battles across family lines, or create new ones with iconic characters like Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, Tyrion Lannister, Cersei Lannister, Jamie Lannister, Bran Stark, and the White Walker.
TLS’ signature Action Vinyls are a hybrid co-mingling of highly-stylized features figurines but with the poseable dexterity commonly found in traditional action figures. Most TLS figures stand at 3.25”, have up to 15-points of articulation, are accompanied by a collector card, and have interchangeable accessories creating a Universe Without Borders. Adding to the collectible chase element, TLS pays homage to its collector base by including rare figures and “Easter eggs” throughout its product lines.
Game of Thrones Action Vinyls are available now with a rolling release schedule throughout May. You can find these at Target, Hot Topic and, starting April 30th, Walmart.

35th Anniversary of TRANSFORMERS Franchise Kicks Off with #MoreThanMeetsTheEye Campaign
In honor of the 35th anniversary of the TRANSFORMERS franchise, Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ:HAS) today revealed a new brand campaign that celebrates how we’re all MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE. The MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE campaign will activate fans, celebrities and the creative minds behind the TRANSFORMERS franchise to embrace and showcase how they are MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE through videos. For 35 years MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE has been associated with the TRANSFORMERS brand and is reinforced across all elements of the franchise.
To kick off the campaign, a video featuring Angela Bassett, who starred in 2018’s critically acclaimed BUMBLEBEE film, debuted revealing how she is MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE. In the video, Bassett mentions that besides being a Golden Globe Award recipient, she is also a graduate of Yale College and Yale University. In BUMBLEBEE, Bassett voiced the Decepticon character SHATTER.
The MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE video campaign will be promoted throughout 2019 – with new videos dropping every month. Fans can expect to see familiar faces – both new and old – who have greatly impacted the franchise over the last 35 years. From individuals involved in the creation of the 1986 Transformers animated movie, to Transformers game designers and comic book creators, a wide variety of people have been tapped to contribute to this campaign.
Each video that is part of this campaign will feature the same call to action – “how are you MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE.” Using #MorethanMeetstheEye, we’re asking fans to post videos to social networks that showcase how they are MORE. Whether it’s a hidden talent, a charitable passion, or a hobby, we’re looking to hear how they are MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE.
