A LEGO enthusiast on X (formerly Twitter), username @BuildingMyLEGOs, shared a frustrating experience with a recent Target order. Their $300 Legend of Zelda Great Deku Tree set arrived with tape across the seams and the shipping label stuck directly on the front of the box. They posted a photo and a message to Target’s support accounts calling the condition “unacceptable.” The post quickly gained attention as fans reacted to the damaged packaging. However, Target’s response to the complaint only fueled the frustration, leading many LEGO fans to question ordering LEGO sets from Target online in the future.

During their climb, the two women find themselves stuck on a small platform at the tower’s peak when the ladders crumble and their equipment—and cell service—fail. Becky survives, but Shiloh tragically falls. This sets the stage for the sequel, Fall 2: Deadpoint, directed by Peter & Michael Spierig (with a screenplay co-written by the original director, Scott Mann, and Jonathan Frank). The new film promises another terrifying climb that’s likely to induce vertigo, so those with a fear of heights might want to sit this one out. You can watch the trailer below.

As a huge film fan, I love how Universal is approaching their merchandise now. It’s not just about grabbing a souvenir; according to Justin LaFoe, who heads up their global merchandise and retail, they’re really aiming to let fans – both young and young at heart – fully immerse themselves in the movies and bring a little bit of that magic back home with them. It’s about taking the experience beyond the park and making it something you can cherish.

News about Star Wars Jedi 3 arrives with announcements for Star Wars Zero Company and Star Wars: Galactic Racer, both new games set in the Star Wars universe but offering very different gameplay experiences. The Jedi games, which are single-player action RPGs, have become popular with fans, and Jedi: Survivor improved the combat and open-world elements of the series. While the next Jedi game will likely feature similar systems to previous installments, players are most eager to learn about the story.

Next month’s Anime Expo will feature several popular anime series. So far, they’ve announced appearances related to shows like Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation, Gachiakuta, The Apothecary Diaries, and Witch Hat Atelier, among many others. Infinity Castle is also planning a special event, but it’s a celebration of the film featuring the Japanese voice actors who played the Hashira. While the “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle Celebration” will mostly look back at the movie and won’t offer any new information about future sequels, the Anime Expo event does suggest we’ll get a sneak peek at an upcoming project from Ufotable.

In an interview with The Radio Times, show creator Hine explained that the series deliberately avoids directly mirroring the political climate of the 1930s. He stated that their version of the story was intentionally political, directly naming individuals and referencing groups like the Friends of New Germany and the growth of Nazi sympathizers in the United States. He emphasized that everything depicted was based on historical facts, aside from the fantastical and adventurous elements of the story.

Early reports suggested a new game featuring Kratos’ wife, Faye, might come out in 2027. However, despite a recent 20-minute gameplay showcase, Sony didn’t announce a release date. According to Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier, this doesn’t necessarily mean the game is delayed.

Marvel’s Wolverine will offer a remarkably comprehensive range of accessibility features, organized into categories like Gameplay Assistance, Motion Sensitivity, Visual and Audio Support, High Contrast modes, customizable Violence settings, and options for Subtitles, Captions, Controller layouts and more.

The character She-Ra appears briefly at the end of Travis Knight’s recent film, and now we know who played her! Lauren Saliu revealed on Instagram that she was the one in the She-Ra costume, sharing a detailed look at the iconic outfit (which was only seen from behind in the movie). She also posted some behind-the-scenes photos from filming. Here’s the reveal, along with a recording of the post-credits scene – though some people seem to be ignoring theater etiquette these days!

A new game in the Ace Attorney series is reportedly in development, according to leaker MajorPlayeix, who is usually known for sharing Sega news. This would be the first completely new Ace Attorney title since The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve came out on the Nintendo 3DS in 2017. Since then, Capcom has mainly released collections of older games.
