It also comes with the airbending effects from the previous Aang figure. Doesn’t really need them since Aang can’t bend in the Spirit World, but here they are.

ANYWAY, AI is a atrocious. But you know what's great? Asking black comic creators to come speak to kids at your local middle school. (I'm namedropping @shawnrpryor.bsky.social and @shanfiction.bsky.social as two candidates for this.)

What's funny is that if anyone involved had checked the industry temperature before doing this, they'd know that a grip of folks were already boiling hot over royalties and shrinking salaries and that this was the WORST possible time for a hard AI press.

Also, the last time I checked, he is only serving as a figurehead and nobody else involved is black.

Anyway, to sum this up quickly--it's a Russian nesting doll of predatory behavior. Target innocent black and brown youth, give them AI tools produced with stolen work that will spit out garbled stolen work, and then steal these cribbed "remixes" from children hoping for a jackpot.

Have Gene bring him his order.

It was such a joy to play. So characterful and fun.

I kept putting it off, but just decided to bite the bullet. Thanks for nothing, Hasbro Pulse! 😜

In all seriousness, it is truly a gorgeous set, so I’m just happy to have it.
