Nintendo of America glaubte nicht an den Erfolg von Pokémon in den USA

Heute gilt Pokémon als eines der größten Videospiel- und Multimedia-Franchises der Welt – doch zum Zeitpunkt der Veröffentlichung von Pokémon Rot & Blau in den USA war der Erfolg alles andere als sicher. Nintendo of America selbst glaubte nicht daran, dass die Reihe außerhalb Japans funktionieren würde. Diese Einschätzung teilten offenbar auch andere Unternehmen, darunter der damalige Spielzeughersteller Toy Biz, wie ehemalige Mitarbeiter nun in Interviews mit Time Extension […]

Picked up something to finish off a set at the antique mall today! Collecting Marvel Toy Biz is great because it’s still super cheap. I have Longshot, Spiral, and Quark, just needed a Mojo.

Love these old Toy Biz Marvel action figures. Was tempted to keep this one. See the listing on Dibdit.com! Remember, I'm @Darktoylord everywhere :)

I have the Marvel Legends Terrax Build-A-Figure in my collection and the Hasbro Pulse re-issue on the For Sale shelf. When I saw this ToyBiz version on eBay I don't know why but I felt compelled to buy him :)

Yesterday I shared some Pokémon marbles I had bought. Today I want to share the cool item that came with some of them: The Pokéball Marble Shooter!

This thing can hold eight marbles and has buttons and levers to rotate and shoot out marbles! This one has a Blastoise on it!

It was made by Toy Biz and released alongside the marbles in the year 2000. It's battery powered (2x AA), and even has a light inside!

Made a cool nostalgia purchases this week! Who remembers Pokémon marbles?

I may not be fully accurate, but to my understanding, Toy Biz released a series of Pokémon marbles and accessories in the year 2000, featuring all 151 Pokémon. This product would come with ten marbles, and were released in three different series.

I purchased the Koffing pouch with eight marbles (Gengar, Jynx, Magnemite, Butterfree, Rhyhorn, Exeggutor, Arbok, and Venonat), and a Clefairy pouch that included eight marbles (Cubone, Farfetch'd, Charmeleon, Machamp, and Mew).

The Clefairy pouch and marbles also came with another cool item, and something else, which I will share later!

Little riser shelves definitely did the trick for the #ToyBiz #FantasticFour collection. Before and after…

Recently added Shatterstar and Forge to my 90’s Toy Biz mutants collection. My Marvel shelf is fair brimming at the moment.
