Operation: Red Retrieval – the G.I. Joe fan made movie
Operation: Red Rerieval is a 20 minute long, fan made, movie. It’s a G.I. Joe film that Hasbro has nothing to do with. The film took Mark Cheng about a year and a half of his life to complete and seems to have been very much a labour of love. He writes; Through working on […]

There’s some speculation out there in interwebyland that Wizards of the Coast are working on the 5th edition of Dungeons and Dragons.

Embarrassed Hasbro pulls the plug on “Spastic” Transformer
Hasbro has decided to withdraw sale of a Power Core Combiners Transformer called Spastic.

When I’m not being my geeky self here on Geek Native I get to my geeky self in a digital marketing company. Sometimes I get to hear about pretty cool digital marketing campaigns.
