  It turns out that Attila the arrogant so and so he's got a
• 0:22
  fake hammer. Oh.
• 0:24
  A fake Whoa. As I say, Dick.
• 0:31
  So welcome to your allegiance episode 93.
• 0:35
  We're back on the Internet. We're back podcasting virtually
• 0:40
  after our little trip to New Jersey, where we got to do it in
• 0:44
  person right now. Not sure what we got to do in
• 0:49
  person, but yes. Yes.
• 0:50
  John, we did. That was obviously before I got
• 0:51
  there. You guys here?
• 0:52
  Go for it. Yeah, I was fast asleep when you
• 0:56
  turned up, you know, or were you?
• 0:58
  Yeah, I was fast asleep, yeah. So, yeah, 20, I make it.
• 1:02
  I think it's 25th of October. We recorded the chat with Jeremy
• 1:05
  and now it's 20th of November. So that's nearly a month where
• 1:08
  we, because obviously we had a couple of recordings done in
• 1:12
  advance with the different guests.
• 1:14
  So yeah, that's, that's a little bit of a while.
• 1:17
  Yeah. I feel like, I feel like I have
• 1:19
  to relearn this crack again, you know?
• 1:21
  As as somebody whose wife's birthday is 2 weeks today, time
• 1:24
  is flying and I'm not panicking at all.
• 1:26
  Oh my God, time's flying. Right.
• 1:28
  My wife's birthday is next weekend so or next week it's the
• 1:32
  26th so. My wife.
• 1:34
  Yeah, no. I don't have a wife.
• 1:39
  Your many wives. Yeah.
• 1:44
  So both Sagittarius Rich. There you go.
• 1:46
  So what does that mean? Not that I'm into horoscopes or
• 1:48
  anything, but I. Don't know Kerry's quiet but you
• 1:51
  wouldn't want to mess around that.
• 1:52
  I should be the living GI as soon as lucky She's She's small
• 1:56
  but feisty. OK, my wife wouldn't resort to
• 2:01
  physical violence now, but yeah, she's, I know Ken differently
• 2:05
  Kerry would deal with. People.
• 2:06
  But she's got a stare that Oh my God, you know, if you've upset
• 2:10
  her. And unfortunately my daughter
• 2:11
  has picked up said same stairs. So I'm in real trouble now.
• 2:14
  Of course, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the thing.
• 2:16
  They always pick up the good and the bad stuff.
• 2:18
  So yeah, yeah, you're going to have to deal with that.
• 2:21
  Well, you know, hopefully you're not on the, you know, some
• 2:23
  public transport or something and she stares at somebody.
• 2:25
  You have to step in. That wouldn't be good, would it?
• 2:31
  It would not, no. So, Richard?
• 2:34
  I mean, we've talked a lot in the intervening time, but the
• 2:37
  last time we chatted on the podcast was eh intern, and since
• 2:42
  then we've obviously been in gone.
• 2:43
  And next week I think we'll talk about our kind of legions gone
• 2:47
  experience and the whole and all that that we got.
• 2:50
  Not the whole that Legions gone was in, but the HAUL that we
• 2:55
  got, the stuff that had our. My wallet is sobbing.
• 3:00
  I can hear it from I can hear it in the hall.
• 3:01
  Now it is breaking down crying. Big time sobbing, yeah.
• 3:05
  Well, let's put it this way. This this time I'm at least
• 3:06
  happy to talk about my hall, as opposed to last year where
• 3:08
  there's no way I was mentioning it or showing pictures.
• 3:11
  You were more reasonable this time, I think.
• 3:14
  A. Lot more reasonable, Yeah, I
• 3:15
  didn't stick to my limit of no, I said to you boys.
• 3:17
  And I was like no more than two or three full customs,
• 3:19
  absolutely not 100% now and I bought 8, but hey, that was less
• 3:22
  than half the amount last year. So I'll take that as a positive.
• 3:25
  I have to say though, that you, you, you played the more
• 3:28
  sensible game, OK. I think you bought a couple of
• 3:30
  things in advance, but you did more like, oh, I've sold some
• 3:34
  stuff at the table. Now you're going to spend that
• 3:36
  money, which is that? I mean, that's sensible.
• 3:39
  That was a plan. It's more sensible, at least.
• 3:42
  Yeah, as opposed to, you know, I might.
• 3:44
  I need to sell at least X amount or else I'm completely broke.
• 3:51
  Yes, and I would have had a bit more money leftover, but the the
• 3:56
  custom figure that we'll show on next week's episode, I just
• 3:59
  couldn't not buy that, despite knowing that I'd already bought
• 4:02
  too many. You too know the one I'm talking
• 4:04
  about. I came back with a grin on my
• 4:05
  face and was crazily like a baby.
• 4:08
  Yeah, well, I don't. You've sent me so many pics for
• 4:11
  next week's episode already that I don't think I have much
• 4:13
  talking to do. So that's great.
• 4:14
  I can. I can relax the vocal cords.
• 4:20
  Yeah, well, I'm still, I'm still struggling from financially from
• 4:24
  the £200 extra baggage charged because I was dumb and didn't
• 4:29
  really organize my baggage properly in that I bought 2.
• 4:32
  I brought with me too small of a carry on bag so I couldn't get
• 4:37
  those. I was at 7 LB No.
• 4:39
  How much was it? Over 15 lbs.
• 4:40
  So it was a lot. Yeah, it was 15 lbs that you
• 4:43
  were weighed over. But like, I only had a rucksack.
• 4:45
  So if I had the cabin baggage like you guys, I could have got,
• 4:48
  you know, I could have distributed it more evenly.
• 4:51
  And so yeah, I was, I, I literally couldn't get a pound
• 4:55
  from one bag to the other. So or you know and.
• 4:57
  Unfortunately for you, me and Mal both were absolutely rammed
• 5:00
  but. That would have still been
• 5:02
  money. Would you have had to, you know,
• 5:04
  send to me or, you know, would have been just.
• 5:06
  I suppose we could have repacked to the other side.
• 5:09
  No, we couldn't. Not unless you're done.
• 5:12
  It's Heathrow. Couldn't be, couldn't.
• 5:15
  Yeah, sorry, last round of myself there.
• 5:17
  Yeah. So what do you know, if you live
• 5:19
  and learn, that's the third time.
• 5:20
  There's the first time that happened.
• 5:21
  So, you know, but, and, and, but you see, I think I bought some
• 5:30
  more stuff this year, but I unboxed a lot of it, which it's
• 5:34
  still weighs a lot of. It's still weighs a lot.
• 5:36
  And boxing is a good idea. Yeah, but it still weighs a lot.
• 5:39
  It still weighs a lot. Yeah, my my bag was 2 lbs over
• 5:42
  when I got to the airport. So I do shifting around this
• 5:44
  year, but I'd. Say I had about 20, you know, or
• 5:48
  photo 10 kilos, 20 lbs of T-shirts must have.
• 5:51
  I didn't realize T-shirts weighed that much because, OK, I
• 5:55
  bought some T-shirts in advance, but then I also like people gave
• 5:59
  her, gave you some T-shirts or used, you know, I bought some
• 6:03
  T-shirts from the cabal shop that I didn't expect to be
• 6:08
  buying, but they had some cool ones there.
• 6:10
  So kind of had to, had to. So yeah.
• 6:14
  Yeah, see, I didn't buy a single shirt.
• 6:16
  Yes, all came home with six more than I left here with, so people
• 6:19
  were very generous with handing stuff out.
• 6:22
  That's good, Yeah. So I have to wear for Yeah.
• 6:25
  My Wolf King shirt. Do you've got, Oh, I've got
• 6:27
  legions ladies. I thought I'd represent ladies.
• 6:32
  My old MCM Comic Con one, I'm afraid.
• 6:34
  Oh. There you go.
• 6:36
  But yeah, so we have lots of shirts to wear on the shows this
• 6:39
  year and different things. And we also did, I'm sure you
• 6:41
  noticed if you listen to last week's podcast and if you if you
• 6:44
  are someone that catches the news tube, last week's podcast
• 6:47
  was audio only. So if you go back on your
• 6:49
  favorite podcast player to catch that, it's, I think one of my
• 6:53
  favorite episodes anyway, that I edited listen to.
• 6:58
  I think it was we were in a great mood after intern and it
• 7:00
  just came across pretty well. But I did lots of those.
• 7:04
  You know, you're listening to the Allegiance podcast with
• 7:07
  different people and Stingers. And so we have loads of them.
• 7:11
  I think we've more than 20. The little vox pop she got with
• 7:14
  people were really cool. Yeah, that was fun.
• 7:16
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 7:17
  We were just doing a short one with was it you and me, You and
• 7:20
  me, Mel and then Greg came up, spoke to us for about 10
• 7:24
  minutes. It was you, me, and then Rich
• 7:26
  came in at the end. Give me a proper title, John,
• 7:29
  the Lord of the Armory. Sorry, The Lord of the Armory,
• 7:31
  Greg, Yes. Get the crime.
• 7:35
  Check. Lord of the Armory.
• 7:37
  Yeah, there's a lot of things to live up to there.
• 7:40
  But yeah, you did come home with a bit of a dose of COVID, Rich
• 7:43
  so. I did.
• 7:44
  Thank you whoever gave me that over there, I know it.
• 7:48
  Wasn't US 2 because we we we escaped Scott free.
• 7:51
  I never been there after a transatlantic trip.
• 7:55
  I know it wasn't deliberate but but thank you anyway whoever
• 7:58
  gave me that. No I'm feeling fine now though.
• 8:00
  Yeah it was on the sofa for like 4 days but feeling tickety Boo
• 8:04
  now. Super, super.
• 8:08
  Yeah, you did. I remember just from chatting
• 8:10
  with you that you had one. I think it was one or two days.
• 8:12
  You were really struggling and there's even starting to get a
• 8:15
  bit of sympathy for you. Don't get too carried away,
• 8:21
  John. Maybe folks, when you are so
• 8:29
  I'll. We kept sending to them snotty
• 8:33
  video calls, no. He didn't.
• 8:37
  No, no, he lost his voice. Thankfully, well, worse.
• 8:43
  And also a sense of taste. Yeah, it was that food like
• 8:46
  suicidal for like 3 days. Like as you said, male and I
• 8:49
  can't taste anything. Oh my goodness.
• 8:51
  Me. It's terrible.
• 8:52
  Yeah. Yeah, because I hate that.
• 8:54
  In my early 20s I had bad sinuses and until I got an
• 8:59
  operation to fix it, I didn't smell.
• 9:01
  For maybe two or three years. I didn't have any sense of
• 9:03
  smell. Oh wow.
• 9:04
  And that sucked for food. I mean, you could still taste,
• 9:07
  but it wasn't the same. So it was, it was really only
• 9:13
  enjoying if it was really spicy or really, you know, a really
• 9:15
  big flavour. Anything subtle not happening,
• 9:20
  you know. So it does suck, Yeah.
• 9:23
  And then the weather sucks as well.
• 9:25
  First, yesterday was the first time I saw the sun since I got
• 9:28
  back from from America, which is what, nearly a week and a half
• 9:33
  ago? Yeah, I had to enjoy them now.
• 9:36
  Oh yeah, you snow. You got snow.
• 9:39
  Yeah, we had snow down here as well.
• 9:41
  Not as much as Birmingham, but we had snow.
• 9:43
  We had to hack the ice. Overnight, but I don't know.
• 9:47
  Yeah, attack the ice off the car.
• 9:48
  This more -2° or wherever it was quarter 7:00 in the morning as
• 9:53
  well. Oh my God, yeah.
• 9:55
  At which point I find out we don't have an ice scraper at the
• 9:57
  moment, so I'd use my driving license.
• 9:59
  There's the most plastic thing I could find.
• 10:01
  We got Atlas going across the screen there on mouse.
• 10:06
  He's trolling. You're rich.
• 10:10
  I mean without spoiling there, I haven't done anything with it
• 10:14
  yet. No.
• 10:15
  But I'll find a suitably good use for it.
• 10:19
  Yeah, selling it on the Jones 1234.
• 10:22
  No, I will not sell it, but I did sell an actual Atlas Legions
• 10:25
  gone, so that was good. That's.
• 10:26
  Right. Yeah, Yeah, you had, you had a
• 10:29
  lot of interest in that and then was it Saturday you had a lot of
• 10:34
  interest in that bird. I don't one of the birds that
• 10:36
  you had. Yes, Colonel Domesticus.
• 10:38
  And then you reduce the price on Sunday and nobody looked at it.
• 10:41
  Nobody looked at it. No one guy did.
• 10:43
  And he was like, he was like, could you drop the price a bit
• 10:45
  more? And I was like, it's like almost
• 10:47
  $100 cheaper than yesterday, said.
• 10:50
  All right, very strange that guy, but everyone that went to
• 10:53
  your side of the table on Saturday that I noticed was
• 10:57
  picking it up and looking at or, you know, talking about it, so.
• 11:01
  It's a rare one. I mean, they're generally a
• 11:03
  rare, but that one is. That and Scarlettross are the
• 11:05
  two pretty pricey ones. OK.
• 11:08
  Is there a story behind them that they're more rare or is it
• 11:11
  just not? That I know of.
• 11:12
  I think Scarlettross, for some reason people just like the
• 11:14
  parrot theme I think. And I'm not sure what Colonel
• 11:17
  Domestic cost. You know, it's a cool looking
• 11:18
  chicken. So, you know, maybe there's lots
• 11:21
  of chicken. Yeah, who doesn't like that?
• 11:25
  Yeah. And, and yes, Speaking of birds,
• 11:28
  we're going to get ether on again.
• 11:30
  We that was maybe something we can get on to, but it's good to
• 11:34
  pop it in there. So then with the bird body,
• 11:36
  we'll be going back if they do it that way or they're going to
• 11:39
  do a different version of the bird body or what?
• 11:41
  That's going to be very interesting to see.
• 11:45
  But before all that, should we get on and talk about what
• 11:51
  people must have found strange that we didn't talk about last
• 11:53
  week, but that's because we recorded it after intern, as you
• 11:56
  found out. And the G Con wave.
• 11:59
  Yeah. Let's do it.
• 12:01
  Let's do it right. We have a little thing this
• 12:03
  week. We're going to have people from
• 12:05
  Legions Lounge do the Segways. Hey all you rockers and rollers,
• 12:09
  rollers and bowlers, this is Nate Strong, otherwise known as
• 12:12
  Corona 4 and you are listening to the Euro Legions podcast.
• 12:17
  You are indeed. Thanks, Nate.
• 12:19
  Cheers and. Right, Nate too, there's,
• 12:22
  there's no residuals on this, just just so we're clear on
• 12:25
  that. Yeah, it was just the 20 I gave.
• 12:28
  You know, I didn't give any money out just in case someone
• 12:30
  did it and is looking now for money.
• 12:34
  Yeah. So we had G Conway, the rise of
• 12:36
  the the rain. No rise, rise of the beasts.
• 12:40
  Reign of the Beasts. Reign of the beasts.
• 12:42
  Oh God, after completely messing it up after all this prep.
• 12:49
  Raise the joy of live. This is the joy of live, John.
• 12:52
  Yeah. Well, we're we're recorded, so I
• 12:53
  suppose I could do that again, but I'm not going to because,
• 12:55
  you know, Oh, it's even says it here on the screen.
• 13:01
  Ignore my let me, let me me. I said it's going wrong.
• 13:05
  I said it's going there. Yeah.
• 13:09
  So. Oh, my pieces.
• 13:11
  Oh, see, I went on your headline.
• 13:13
  Yeah. Exactly.
• 13:13
  I know, I think. I think I got it confused.
• 13:17
  Anyway, moving on. Moving on.
• 13:19
  Moving. I'm working with idiots
• 13:20
  everybody DMA. Well I got the the right faction
• 13:23
  and and Basilia is my favorite faction and the first figure.
• 13:27
  Imagine they came out and basically revealed one of the
• 13:31
  main faction beasts as the first figure.
• 13:34
  What were you thinking then? And my thing was, yeah, I think
• 13:39
  my main thought was, Oh my God, this way is going to be insane
• 13:42
  if they're showing this first. Yeah.
• 13:43
  Because as Jeremy said, on the day, you normally get one or two
• 13:46
  good figures, but they're they're more sort of generic
• 13:48
  soldier types and that sort of stuff.
• 13:49
  So to start off like all scene, all dancing with a SO just like
• 13:53
  wow. Yeah, they normally throw the,
• 13:55
  you know, shall we say the one or two of the kind of side
• 13:59
  characters in first and no messing around here.
• 14:03
  So we do have Basilia from the congregation of Basilia and
• 14:07
  she's a sorceress slash goddess. And Mel, do you want to do the?
• 14:13
  I read. The biography, this is what
• 14:15
  people are listening to this episode for, so you might as
• 14:18
  well. Right.
• 14:20
  So the third of the great beast to be called forth by Celine,
• 14:24
  the winged serpent, Basilia was granted the ability to access
• 14:27
  the magic that shapes the universe, leading an assemblage
• 14:31
  of scholars committed to wielding the burden of such
• 14:34
  considerable abilities. Basilia and her followers were
• 14:37
  instrumental in shifting the balance of power in the First
• 14:39
  Great War by removing POC's forces from the battlefield.
• 14:44
  As enigmatic as the powers that these scholars wield is the
• 14:47
  mystery behind the disappearance of the Quatl, a race of
• 14:51
  Serpentine beings like Basilia. No one knows what's happened to
• 14:55
  these beings, or if they do know, they're not revealing the
• 14:58
  secret. Pretty cool, so a bit of mystery
• 15:02
  in there. I find the writing is getting
• 15:06
  even more literary and I can only imagine certain people like
• 15:12
  Travis trying to stumble their way through these BIOS.
• 15:16
  Absolutely clean run through that one now.
• 15:18
  That was pretty good. Thank you.
• 15:20
  Thank you. Unfortunately I think the names
• 15:23
  a bit simple for Travis this year, so that was disappointing.
• 15:26
  Well, I don't know when we get on to the, the, the, the wolf
• 15:30
  or, you know, that one is not easy.
• 15:33
  It's got a, it's, it's probably easy for a Welsh person because
• 15:35
  it's got a lot of consonants in it.
• 15:39
  Oh. You said consonants.
• 15:42
  I was going to say, there's a thing about continents later.
• 15:46
  There is, there is that. Is quite come.
• 15:48
  On here all night. So there she is, a beautiful
• 15:53
  snake with the kind of Aztec type appearance, with the
• 15:59
  feathers coming out of the headdress and of course the
• 16:02
  wings. And so we expected a winged
• 16:05
  serpent, I suppose, from the faction logo.
• 16:07
  So that's what we got. But I didn't expect a figure
• 16:11
  like this with the big massive tail and everything like that.
• 16:15
  Rich. I mean, you were grinning ear to
• 16:18
  ear when we got Snake. Yeah, I, I every photograph of
• 16:22
  me from this period, we just literally just open Jordan.
• 16:27
  It's just grinning like because it was on the.
• 16:28
  Slideshow I have. Lunatic.
• 16:30
  Yeah, it's, I was very happy at this point.
• 16:36
  And Matt, what's your? I'm pretty fantastic.
• 16:39
  The colours are amazing. That was the big thing that
• 16:43
  struck me is just how colourful she was and the tail.
• 16:47
  I'm super interested to see how the tail ends up working and how
• 16:52
  it moves and and yeah, and all that so and everything about us,
• 16:58
  you know? Yeah, so you can see, you can
• 17:00
  probably see if you look at the picture of Basilia and either if
• 17:04
  you're watching us on YouTube or if you see it on the horsemen
• 17:06
  side. So this tail seems to be in
• 17:10
  segments. So you can definitely rotate the
• 17:12
  tail. I don't know if they'll be on a
• 17:13
  ball as well, but just say that you can rotate them and then
• 17:17
  kind of halfway down it seems to bend into a curve.
• 17:19
  And then you get the other part of the tail that goes kind of
• 17:25
  parallel to the ground or, you know, along the ground.
• 17:29
  And that one, I don't know, maybe that that's going to be
• 17:31
  wired or something. I don't know.
• 17:32
  We can have a look around the back here could be wired maybe
• 17:37
  that piece. Wasn't, I can't remember now
• 17:41
  what was said. They did say I mean.
• 17:44
  The dragon tail is wide at the end, isn't it?
• 17:46
  So I'd imagine they probably do the same with this at the very
• 17:48
  end at least so you can maybe have the the rattle or whatever
• 17:51
  it is just sticking up a little bit doesn't.
• 17:53
  Yeah, and you can see the detail of the, if you look at the
• 17:57
  picture, the back picture of her on the website, you can see the
• 18:01
  the detail of the headdress and everything there.
• 18:04
  It's incredible. It's the stuff that's plaited at
• 18:08
  the back, so I've not noticed that before.
• 18:10
  That's really cool. Oh yeah, the, the hair, yeah,
• 18:13
  that's really, really nice. I guess that's kind of part of
• 18:16
  the headdress or whatever. Yeah.
• 18:18
  And. Oh, you know what that means.
• 18:20
  All that means that. They're going to be separate and
• 18:22
  they. Sorry, Rich.
• 18:23
  Yeah, I was. Just going to say, you know what
• 18:24
  the platting like that means they're building up towards the
• 18:28
  the antlers pulled back in a knot for Zyloner.
• 18:31
  Oh, when? It comes out you didn't help.
• 18:33
  Dropping for it. Yeah.
• 18:39
  So there we have our purple spell effect, so that's pretty
• 18:44
  cool. Good for those purple gang gang
• 18:47
  guys. She's an incredible figure.
• 18:51
  I mean, it's the, I was looking at the, you know, obviously when
• 18:55
  you're it's weird when you're at Gcon, although the experience is
• 18:58
  amazing, it's really quite difficult to see the figures in
• 19:01
  detail. Yeah, I mean.
• 19:02
  You're on your phone and then you're like, should I be on my
• 19:05
  phone? I should be taking this and.
• 19:06
  Then you get the occasional idiot that has forgotten they
• 19:08
  can connect to Wi-Fi in the hotel and is there going.
• 19:11
  I can't get reception. I don't know what's going on.
• 19:14
  That was me, but I was looking at this in more detail.
• 19:18
  It's like the little, little intricate details, like the fact
• 19:20
  that she's got a snake head at the bottom of the neckpiece sort
• 19:24
  of thing. You know, it's just that extra
• 19:27
  little extra little thing just gives it that, you know, he
• 19:32
  doesn't need to do that. You know, Eric could have just
• 19:34
  left that with a cool shiny gold thing.
• 19:37
  But no, there's a there's a snake head there as well.
• 19:40
  Yeah, but you've seen him sculpting, so you know he's
• 19:43
  pretty good at this stuff. And who doesn't live an armoured
• 19:45
  bra with feathers coming out the bottom of it?
• 19:48
  Who doesn't? Yeah.
• 19:49
  I mean, that's just horse. Must ask my wife if she wants an
• 19:54
  armoured bra with feathers. They could get a slap.
• 19:59
  Will be worth the question anyway.
• 20:02
  Yeah. And interesting here with the
• 20:06
  with the kind of belt piece here that seems to be one of those
• 20:11
  2.0 belt pieces. But it works.
• 20:18
  Yeah, I mean, they were saying, weren't they, that we'll go on
• 20:20
  to the next figure in a minute. But they've done the snake tail.
• 20:23
  So you can you know depending what the top bit is, you can do
• 20:25
  a 1.0 or 2.0 so. Yeah, that looks like exactly
• 20:29
  like the torso joint. We should also say mention on
• 20:33
  Sorry, I thought you'd finished. Sorry.
• 20:35
  Yeah. No, it's OK.
• 20:38
  I was going to say we should also mention on they've redone
• 20:40
  the serpents by. Staff they have, yeah.
• 20:44
  Completely yes. Yeah, it's not as thick along
• 20:49
  the so you can't, you know, you're going to smash the hand
• 20:52
  of a two point dog trying to get it into it.
• 20:55
  So that works, Yeah. But good that they, I think it's
• 20:59
  cool that they keep the same design, you know, So it's kind
• 21:01
  of consistent. Definitely.
• 21:03
  Yeah, yeah. And hey, this is a 2.0 build of
• 21:05
  that ankles so that's a positive for me.
• 21:09
  And no wobbling and throwing yourself off the shelf.
• 21:15
  So yeah, we get the So we get this is we were missing, of
• 21:21
  course, two of the beasts from the line completely that Basilia
• 21:24
  and Lee Odysseus. And this wave fixes that.
• 21:30
  And then they also said they will do redo Etheron and Zylon
• 21:36
  as well. So we're going to get the four
• 21:39
  great beasts eventually again. And we, you know, it's going to
• 21:43
  if you're in on this wave, you'll be able to do the four
• 21:46
  great beasts over the next year or two.
• 21:49
  So that's that's really, really nice of them.
• 21:52
  And there's Trevor's beautiful environment shot.
• 21:56
  So good, Trevor. Snuck in a sneaky tease of a
• 22:01
  reveal. Two teasers.
• 22:03
  There's teasers everywhere in that one.
• 22:04
  Oh yeah, in the. Background as well, which I
• 22:08
  think everybody missed the initial launch.
• 22:13
  I love the fact with a headdress too, that it's it's the red and
• 22:16
  yellow. So it's almost like a fire.
• 22:18
  Yeah, fire or a Phoenix effect almost sort of thing coming up
• 22:21
  from it. And here you go.
• 22:22
  Here's the the with that, kiss me, that's too much.
• 22:26
  The brilliance of Eric is they're the same feathers from
• 22:32
  the Monkey King headdress that are in that are coming out of
• 22:37
  the back there, of course. Oh, are they?
• 22:40
  I thought it was one or two of them, but yeah, they all.
• 22:43
  Yeah, it's all. They're all the same.
• 22:45
  They're not different. They're all the same.
• 22:48
  It's very good. So the connections are just at
• 22:50
  different angles to give it the. Yeah.
• 22:53
  That's, that's nice. Oh, that saves them a bit of
• 22:57
  tooling. So, yeah, yeah.
• 23:00
  This will be a weird thing to say, but the one thing that
• 23:02
  caught me slightly off guard with this because I was
• 23:04
  expecting the figure was the fact that she had a snake head.
• 23:09
  For some reason. In my mind I'd go with a snake
• 23:11
  or a Serpentine body, but more of a sort of a lizard head
• 23:16
  rather than a full on snake head and this works.
• 23:19
  On the brilliant though. Yeah, I know this works
• 23:21
  brilliantly and I love it, but I was, I don't know, for some
• 23:23
  reason I was just spending more of a lizard style head with a
• 23:26
  with a Serpentine body. But you know this is the.
• 23:28
  Fear of the snake so we got another one as well.
• 23:33
  The Serpent Spire Royal Guard so.
• 23:38
  At this point I started getting palpitations.
• 23:40
  Yeah, like in another snake. And this was even before, which
• 23:44
  we'll talk about next week in more detail, the figures at the
• 23:48
  show, and one of them, of course, was the Ninian infantry,
• 23:52
  which is the snake figure. We had a lot of fun with running
• 23:57
  around to the horsemen to try and pick up an extra one or two
• 24:01
  or 6, which I would mind if I didn't get there too late and
• 24:07
  Sunday, but. I'm going to about 1 next week,
• 24:09
  but can I at this point give a shout out, please, to the
• 24:12
  wonderful Brett Stoddart and Curtis and especially Darla,
• 24:17
  obviously, because, you know, we know Curtis just tags along
• 24:20
  because they they gifted me snake men.
• 24:22
  So I had two snake men that I didn't even pay for.
• 24:24
  So thank you, Brett. Thank you, Curtis slash, Darla.
• 24:28
  Yeah. Wonderful people.
• 24:31
  Right now, shall we go for the buy on this, on this one, Yeah.
• 24:36
  So members of the Quatl, a reptilian race long vanished in
• 24:40
  mythos. The Serpent Spire Royal Guard
• 24:42
  were comprised of the highest ranking soldiers in Basilia's
• 24:45
  den of Followers, possessing fully Serpentine lower bodies
• 24:49
  like Basilia herself. Only the High Mages were above
• 24:52
  the Royal Guards within the ranks of the early Convocation,
• 24:56
  equally adept at wielding weapons in melee combat as they
• 24:59
  were with the weaving together powerful spells.
• 25:02
  No one knows how the soldiers disappeared from the realm, or
• 25:06
  perhaps that disappearance is not a mystery, but is one of the
• 25:09
  many secrets locked away in the vaults of a Fidian.
• 25:16
  So maybe it's a secret of how they can come back to the
• 25:18
  present day, yeah. Well.
• 25:21
  So they just went off to somewhere else.
• 25:24
  Is it not setting up potentially more littered men to come in the
• 25:31
  next The Wave? That is the equivalent of the
• 25:35
  ashes of AG Bendor, which is the stories of a FID in the Library
• 25:40
  of Afidian, Isn't it so? Oh, Mao, I hadn't thought of
• 25:43
  that. I I know.
• 25:44
  He's not going. To be able to he's not going to
• 25:46
  podcast now for the rest of. The framing just went up
• 25:51
  slightly. He's just he's just going to be
• 25:56
  asking questions and he's just his brain lizard.
• 25:58
  Lizard. Yes, Nick, More Snake next year.
• 26:01
  Well. Viper rattled.
• 26:03
  Well, I don't know what's going on.
• 26:04
  Well, I'm even going as far as to say, oh, we're getting the
• 26:07
  high mages. Yes, true, it did talk about
• 26:12
  them, didn't it? Is the only one that's more
• 26:13
  powerful. Yeah, and so similar, similar
• 26:17
  build, similar. Yep, anyway.
• 26:23
  Let's talk about this way for now.
• 26:26
  Yeah, so this is a this is a 1.0 snake, is that right?
• 26:30
  Yes Yeah, it is. It is yes upper as as Ninion.
• 26:36
  So this is just such a sweet looking figure.
• 26:41
  Yeah, it's got the head. It's got the headdress as well
• 26:44
  like not the same one, but a similar style headdress as
• 26:48
  Basilia. It's also got like a kind of a
• 26:52
  helmet with shoulder piece. Is that from Anubis or or?
• 27:00
  It's very similar to what Anubis has for sure.
• 27:04
  Yeah, No, I think the shoulder pauldrons, they look like the
• 27:06
  ones that they were showing with the cosmic figures, don't they?
• 27:10
  Yeah, yeah, they're the Thraxian.
• 27:12
  Thraxian ones. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 27:14
  Got you. Which are perfect for the sassy
• 27:17
  is the waist piece. It's the Thraxian waist piece.
• 27:21
  Yeah, no, it's different from what's with the Anubis.
• 27:24
  So, yeah, very cool. And this is the kind of fully
• 27:30
  snake form that the gear which I guess you'll have how many of
• 27:35
  these on the shelf Rich. As many as I can squeeze onto an
• 27:39
  IKEA Billy shelf. It has to be sad is.
• 27:43
  Business snakes Your new favorite faction, no.
• 27:47
  But there's no reason why, you know, I couldn't have vampire
• 27:51
  snakes as well. Oh my goodness.
• 27:54
  I was like, there's every recent shut up.
• 27:58
  The fangs, they're already got fangs.
• 28:01
  Exactly. Perfectly made to be the
• 28:04
  vampires. Yeah, no, I'll be getting a lot
• 28:08
  of these. I think it's fair to say when
• 28:10
  they. Make a white snake and you can
• 28:12
  play whatever white snake song you want.
• 28:17
  Wishing you on something like a person to song now, but I can't
• 28:19
  think of any of the top of my head.
• 28:21
  Yeah, so this uses the shield that comes with the dwarf pack
• 28:24
  as well, which was an interesting choice, but cool.
• 28:28
  And the staff is one of the Basilia ones that comes with the
• 28:33
  one of the figures in the boxes Wave I think the is it.
• 28:40
  Oh Zende. Is it Zende?
• 28:42
  Yes, Zende is what I would have said as well.
• 28:44
  Yeah, which makes sense because they're the same faction so you
• 28:48
  know they would have the same type of weapons.
• 28:50
  And this belt piece is from the Traxion.
• 28:54
  You boys just said that so and they even have some soft goods.
• 28:58
  So very cool. And this other feather piece and
• 29:03
  it looks like feathers on a sort of a didn't want to say coat
• 29:11
  hanger because you know, that's some kind.
• 29:13
  It's the same staff as comes with Samir.
• 29:20
  Samir OK, one of the Wizards. OK, The good wizard.
• 29:23
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cool.
• 29:26
  And there you see all the stuff that you get to them, this new
• 29:30
  kind of weapons, like an Aztec kind of a club weapon.
• 29:36
  Yeah. And you see that you get an
• 29:38
  extra piece for the tail there, which gives it a different type
• 29:41
  of bend, I believe. So that's the piece that
• 29:44
  basically goes down, you know, touching the ground there, that
• 29:49
  bit at the at the bend. So yeah, we'll give it a
• 29:53
  different shape. So, yeah, so the one that comes
• 29:56
  with is rigid, so it stands up. And then this one is more of a
• 29:59
  flex and I presume basically it will be the side stand.
• 30:02
  Yeah, because they didn't say with Vasilia, but presuming
• 30:05
  she'll have had the same sort of thing as well.
• 30:06
  I think they, I think they did say, I think they maybe
• 30:09
  mentioned it in the room, but but it wasn't evident there.
• 30:12
  I'll be honest, my head was spinning at this point, yeah.
• 30:15
  I can understand that. Yeah.
• 30:17
  So there you go. The two heads are the same as we
• 30:19
  get with the with the regions con snake man I believe.
• 30:22
  No, that open mouth sculpt is safe.
• 30:26
  And they said although they look similar, they're actually
• 30:27
  different sculpts. Oh, oh wow, very cool.
• 30:31
  So I wonder then if that if that kind of pattern on the top of
• 30:36
  the head here is actually sculpted as well.
• 30:40
  As my base to. You know, just paint.
• 30:42
  Like not just painted, but as opposed to just painted effect.
• 30:47
  But again, how cool is it that the Horsemen will do that?
• 30:48
  They're not going to just reuse the same head sculpt.
• 30:51
  It's like, no, they're different ones.
• 30:54
  Yeah, I think they're in there at that point now where they can
• 30:57
  do a little bit more and keep the prices the same.
• 31:00
  So these are, you know, the pricing is very much in line
• 31:03
  with what we've had before in this wave.
• 31:06
  These are deluxe figures, these first two if I remember well.
• 31:09
  So they are the $45.00 price point, which 40?
• 31:16
  $5 it's just. An extra fiber, yeah.
• 31:19
  Crazy, isn't it? But.
• 31:20
  It's it's these are five, Yeah. And the the standard figures
• 31:24
  which we get on to later 40. You think that's cheaper than
• 31:28
  what Super 7 charges for their ultimates?
• 31:30
  It's like, Oh dear. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 31:36
  Crazy so. I love the fact that this too
• 31:39
  that again, that you know, they're embracing the
• 31:40
  Mesoamerican stuff, which is awesome and I really love
• 31:44
  they've done that. But also the fact that he's
• 31:45
  wearing an eagle helmet. That's very much I'm of his
• 31:49
  minor Aztec sort of thing, but that's really a traditional
• 31:51
  look. So it's it's a snake, but he's
• 31:54
  wearing that traditional look to give it that real world feel as
• 31:57
  well. Something I love the fact that
• 31:58
  that's the design they went for. Yeah.
• 32:01
  And that that headdress could be reused on various different
• 32:05
  figures or indeed of course custom switch as well.
• 32:09
  This line is very easily, easily to accommodate.
• 32:13
  So yeah, there's another Trevor shot.
• 32:16
  We should always shout them out. That's.
• 32:19
  A relieving shot, and you can see it quite well there, too.
• 32:22
  But again, on the neck piece, there's a snake.
• 32:26
  So it's like, I think it's a different neck piece to Basilia.
• 32:28
  Yeah. But yeah, again, it's just
• 32:31
  putting those extra details in. Yeah.
• 32:33
  Sweet. And then the next one we have is
• 32:37
  Jen so. Sorry John, before we move on to
• 32:39
  that, one more point and you can edit it however you want it.
• 32:42
  No. He's he's got a weapon on the
• 32:44
  end of his tail, yes, which I thought was a really nice little
• 32:48
  touch. Yeah, Oh.
• 32:50
  There's like a spiked or a bladed weapon.
• 32:53
  At the end of his. Tail.
• 32:54
  Yeah. It's just like, how good is
• 32:56
  that? It's not just a snake.
• 32:57
  It's a snake that you know can slice you with his tail as well.
• 33:02
  That's sweet. Yeah.
• 33:03
  And these are the ring pieces here.
• 33:05
  This they must go on the tail then as well.
• 33:07
  Or do they? I think the two of them are for
• 33:10
  the wrists, I think. The wrists.
• 33:12
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Got you.
• 33:14
  See them there? Yeah.
• 33:17
  Oh, we're learning here. Love it.
• 33:21
  Right. We have genum.
• 33:23
  Genum. Yeah, so the website didn't have
• 33:26
  a picture of him on this kind of bio page, so that was
• 33:30
  interesting. I should have maybe told Jeremy,
• 33:32
  but I didn't want to be that guy either.
• 33:35
  Sure. Plenty of people tell them stuff
• 33:36
  like that. Don't be that guy you'd.
• 33:39
  Probably be annoyed now that I didn't tell him and then and
• 33:42
  then use the picture anyway for the show or use the the page
• 33:47
  anyway. So he's circle epoxis.
• 33:50
  So we're kind of Basilia versus boxes so far and and he's an
• 33:57
  Iphorus, is that right or? Yeah, yeah.
• 34:02
  And his role is a berserker. So yeah, he's we see why he's a
• 34:07
  berserker. You definitely get out of his
• 34:10
  way. If you saw him coming, wouldn't
• 34:11
  you be like, yeah, Nope, whatever, you're on day, go for
• 34:13
  it. Right, so big.
• 34:15
  Give us the pile of genome, their mouth so we can move on to
• 34:18
  the the pictures. The pictures.
• 34:20
  Fiennes Normally tethered to the Infernal Plane, he freaks often
• 34:24
  act as cruel jailers to those unfortunate souls who find
• 34:27
  themselves trapped in the hellish realm.
• 34:30
  An elder of Freak named Genem was summoned to Mythos by Poxus
• 34:33
  during the First Great War, a living inferno who consumed all
• 34:38
  who stood in his path. Genem escaped the spells and
• 34:41
  banished the rest of Pox's army, only to find himself defeated by
• 34:45
  the Quatl High Mage who imprisoned him within the Copper
• 34:48
  Lamp. Originally kept in a secure
• 34:51
  vault of Afidian, the lamp mysteriously disappeared a
• 34:54
  number of years ago. That magical vessels whereabouts
• 34:57
  along with the horror trapped within is currently unknown.
• 35:03
  We need to find that along with the we.
• 35:06
  Maybe we're down here at the end, but this one I.
• 35:09
  Think they need to start hiring out the Temple of Relic guards
• 35:12
  because the rest of the guards can't guard anything can they?
• 35:14
  By the looks of it am I got taken, the lamp got taken, the
• 35:18
  scrolls disappearing from Avidian.
• 35:19
  It's like, come on, get the relic guards in.
• 35:21
  They clearly know what they're doing.
• 35:24
  Yeah, those snakes are, they're no good or they're infantry, so
• 35:29
  or they know they're Royal Guards as well.
• 35:31
  So I don't know what what they've been at.
• 35:34
  So here he is. It's a brute scale dude on a
• 35:40
  flame. So there is to say, carry on.
• 35:47
  Description at this stage in the proceedings, I was wondering if
• 35:50
  we were going to get a figure with legs because he's he's
• 35:58
  flame effect is basically making them look almost like, you know,
• 36:01
  the same shape as the other figures.
• 36:02
  Snake. So he's brute scale obviously
• 36:04
  flaming sword That's a big approval for me.
• 36:08
  Flame effects on the wrists. The head is just mental looking,
• 36:15
  you know? Yeah, the amount of horns.
• 36:17
  Coming out and everything. Just bonkers.
• 36:21
  Absolutely yeah. Eric was having fun with that
• 36:24
  and and he does also come with legs.
• 36:29
  So we've got to figure with legs.
• 36:31
  So these are the brute scale legs obviously with the wraps
• 36:34
  and everything. So you can now make I suppose if
• 36:38
  you can you get him or maybe we might get them in between.
• 36:40
  But brute scale Fury York just needed third party head.
• 36:44
  Yeah, yeah, and you get a pretty They wouldn't be the same red as
• 36:48
  the Fury orcs, but yeah, it'll work.
• 36:52
  Yeah, absolutely. He's bigger, so he's, you know,
• 36:54
  slightly less red. Yeah, or you can just
• 36:57
  specifically if you were really into your customizing, you
• 37:01
  could, you know, color it a bit more red towards the Fury Orc
• 37:04
  wouldn't be as difficult to paint red over red.
• 37:07
  And but I just, I love this guy. He's just such a cool metal kind
• 37:14
  of action figure. You know, the flames and then
• 37:18
  just this, you know, you can still use him as just this big
• 37:21
  dude and you know, you can still use the flame.
• 37:25
  There's what he comes with. I mean, you see some of those
• 37:28
  things on the figure itself. Obviously the pauldrons, these
• 37:33
  are like the ones that come with the as a hazer or they are the
• 37:38
  ones maybe that come with as a. Oh yes, they.
• 37:41
  Are Oh no, they are they smaller.
• 37:42
  Must be a smaller one as it's been a similar type design.
• 37:47
  Yeah, yeah. And obviously the same lamp as
• 37:54
  as is it. Calizar Yeah.
• 37:58
  Did you hear as well? I'm not sure if it was on the
• 38:00
  day because I said my mind was blurring at this .0.
• 38:02
  They're in Jeremy's show, but they said they're planning on
• 38:05
  doing the blue smoke effect for colours here as well.
• 38:09
  That was to be planning. What do you mean they're
• 38:11
  planning on like they do they're going to re release him or?
• 38:14
  I don't know, but they just said as they've got the effect now,
• 38:16
  then they're going to do it in blue as well at some point for
• 38:18
  colours that's. Totally.
• 38:20
  How do we like a pack? Do an effects pack?
• 38:23
  Nice. That was a bit of went under the
• 38:26
  radar. I'm sure people that heard it
• 38:28
  like you know it, but I didn't hear that widely spoken about.
• 38:33
  Very cool. You get it's closer and look at
• 38:36
  the head here as well. I mean, look at it, it's just
• 38:37
  like there's a tree grown out of it.
• 38:39
  There's roots of a tree or something.
• 38:43
  It is introvert you saying about the legs, John.
• 38:45
  I think I made a note here saying I couldn't get, didn't
• 38:48
  think I could get any more impressed after the snakes.
• 38:50
  And then and then this guy appeared.
• 38:53
  And it's probably because again, it was like snake's ass because
• 38:55
  like, yeah, just keep it coming. Keep it coming.
• 38:58
  No legs, I mean. Get a root scale third party
• 39:01
  head snake head, you know, and OK, the body doesn't really work
• 39:06
  but but you could certainly make a flaming snake.
• 39:13
  Or maybe they'll make a flaming snake.
• 39:15
  It's mythos, John Smith, allegiance.
• 39:16
  You make anything work? Yeah.
• 39:18
  I think so too. Yeah, I think so too.
• 39:21
  So he's just a cool figure. Love him.
• 39:26
  He's building out the Brute scale as well a bit more with
• 39:29
  different types of figures. You know, an absolute sucker for
• 39:33
  translucent, although I've not yet.
• 39:35
  I don't think he's my favorite in the wave, but he's got a lot
• 39:38
  of things about him that are right at my street.
• 39:44
  Right, Yeah, we should go to favourites at the end.
• 39:47
  We can rank them in order. There's Trevor's incredible and
• 39:54
  he he seemed to if we go back to the smoke effect here, odd is
• 39:58
  it, it does get a little bit black towards the end, but he
• 40:01
  really in the photo, they're really the lighting brings out
• 40:04
  the kind of black. He was he about to destroy in
• 40:08
  that picture? Is that just that it's a figures
• 40:10
  put together? That looks like the heads pack
• 40:14
  head. Yes, I was looking at the hair
• 40:17
  color thing. I don't recognize that.
• 40:18
  Yeah, that's why. Delphina slash Gwendolyn
• 40:23
  alternate head done with the red hair.
• 40:26
  And then I guess that's, you know, like a barbarian to the
• 40:30
  female barbarian body. Yeah, look at them.
• 40:34
  Incredible. And even the lighting there
• 40:36
  brings out the tattoos kind of on the face of the figure or
• 40:39
  whatever they are. The kind of markings.
• 40:41
  You can see them here kind of in the head.
• 40:48
  So really cool. I think they're sculpted in,
• 40:50
  aren't they? Yes, I believe they are.
• 40:54
  Yeah, so a bit like the Hazer and Zazer and the body they're
• 41:02
  sculpted in, aren't they? Yeah.
• 41:03
  I think what I love about this guy is I mean, I love Calise and
• 41:06
  he's got that traditional sort of gin look, whereas this guy
• 41:10
  just looks just like a mean mother humper.
• 41:12
  It's just like, I'm just going to destroy you.
• 41:17
  And Trevor Cat very catches it really well with this picture.
• 41:19
  But it's it's just that, you know, it's not just a gin.
• 41:21
  It's a gin that will, you know, if I don't mind.
• 41:24
  She can beat you in an arm wrestling contest I'd like.
• 41:26
  To hear a couple of side stories with this guy, you know, kind of
• 41:31
  his adventurous. You're on mute there, man.
• 41:36
  I think that's the cool thing about about him is he's going to
• 41:40
  be, especially if they're going to do the blue smoke effect for
• 41:45
  Callousy. They're those two on a shelf
• 41:47
  together just as a a piece would look fantastic.
• 41:51
  The good gin and the bad gin. And he's, he's actually one of
• 41:55
  the figures in this wave that I think could bring in new people
• 42:01
  when they see this figure because he's just so different
• 42:07
  to anything else that I can't think.
• 42:11
  I mean, I don't know. Yeah, and and a couple of the
• 42:13
  things I've I've listened to or watched where it's not legions
• 42:16
  focus, but more, you know, collecting in general where
• 42:19
  they've mentioned this wave. This is one of the figures they
• 42:22
  they talk about more often than not as a kind of stand out.
• 42:27
  Yeah, I mean, you're just cool. The rule of cool Mel.
• 42:32
  Let's see. Yeah, yeah, 100%.
• 42:34
  And did we mention that the the smoke effect rotates, which is
• 42:39
  you can see. Yeah, you can see the on the on
• 42:41
  the first picture here that you can see just at the very bottom
• 42:44
  there is kind of got a cut in the in the flame effect, Yeah,
• 42:49
  so. You're right them all about the
• 42:52
  bringing new people in as well, because you know this figure's
• 42:55
  cool, but then you've got the snake people.
• 42:57
  You know, you have people that want snake people and you've got
• 42:59
  the Roman. More people like you.
• 43:03
  Rich. Oh, basically.
• 43:04
  Well, the world. You know, it's not a bad thing
• 43:05
  if the world's full of people like me.
• 43:07
  But again, then you the end you had that blue smoke effect
• 43:10
  Calaze and more people are going to suddenly start looking at
• 43:12
  Calaze guarantee. If you get this Big Blue flame.
• 43:18
  Wow. Yeah.
• 43:19
  And they get in green as well for for somebody else.
• 43:24
  Oh yeah, right. We got to move on.
• 43:26
  Here's some green. And we get it in grey, do you
• 43:28
  think? For a vampire for it?
• 43:34
  I'm obsessed. Honestly, I'm just checking.
• 43:37
  Just a just a really big smoker get.
• 43:42
  Out in the sun. Right Aria the talent bearer.
• 43:52
  So Aria with two hours. Aria the sect of Azaria.
• 43:58
  So this is the first time we hear this faction, so that's a
• 44:01
  new one. And she's a cultist, so also a
• 44:08
  new type of role. So pretty cool.
• 44:12
  Should we read her bio so we can talk about her more?
• 44:16
  Active during the First Age of Mythos, the Order of the Five
• 44:19
  Pillars was a cult whose beliefs were considered deeply
• 44:23
  heretical. Daring to question the story of
• 44:26
  the Realms creation, these cultists worshipped ancient
• 44:29
  creatures of immense proportions who they believed had existed in
• 44:33
  mythos for untold ages. Teasers all over the place.
• 44:38
  Members of the cults and the familias that manifested as an
• 44:41
  extension of their faith was driven from the Kingdom.
• 44:44
  Shortly after the First Great War, a scholar who initially
• 44:47
  fought beside Basilia, Areya, the Talon Bearer, broke from the
• 44:52
  convocation. Found sect of how we saying it
• 44:56
  Areseus sect of Erasus Erasius. We actually chronicled the
• 45:03
  evidence that formed the basis of the cultist belief.
• 45:07
  While those writing were ordered destroyed.
• 45:12
  While those writings were ordered destroyed, evidence
• 45:14
  suggests that there was actually saved by members of a Fidian and
• 45:18
  remained hidden within the vaults of that kingdom's great
• 45:20
  library. Sorry about that.
• 45:23
  We need to get into that library.
• 45:24
  It's got some names. Yeah, that's OK.
• 45:28
  We need the highest snag basically to get into the
• 45:30
  library and get us some goodies. Yeah, I definitely said it wrong
• 45:34
  the first time. Then sect of Erasius.
• 45:37
  Erasius, there you go. Yeah, so she is this 5 Pillars
• 45:44
  as well gets mentioned the first time and that becomes important
• 45:47
  later for a very big reveal. And so there she is and 2.0 it's
• 45:53
  reveal we got the dragon. I suppose we got a dragon then.
• 46:00
  I think Joe Vassapolo made a big deal of of bringing out this
• 46:02
  dragon on the on the flight stand looking like this as our
• 46:08
  dragon. Actually got points of
• 46:09
  articulation as well by the looks.
• 46:11
  Yeah, it's a cool. Legs isn't that crazy.
• 46:14
  This is your you know what you want in cosmic rich your little
• 46:17
  creatures, you know. This is basically yes.
• 46:19
  Hopefully this could be the start of that sort of stuff.
• 46:22
  Well, we've got a good few mythics now with the blue lit
• 46:26
  bone dudes and we got the bird. Valak and Duban have birds,
• 46:31
  Sorry. Did you say blue lit with her
• 46:33
  bone dudes? I don't remember that reveal in
• 46:35
  there. That's man's job, to make those
• 46:42
  jobs stay in your lane. Sorry.
• 46:50
  Yeah, female. Sorry.
• 46:55
  And what about her weapon here, man?
• 47:05
  I. Knew.
• 47:06
  I knew as I was saying that that was going to happen.
• 47:10
  Very cool. I've got to say she's a really
• 47:14
  weird one for me because everything about her love, but
• 47:20
  from a design perspective, she's possibly not the most exciting
• 47:25
  character in the wave, but there's so much good about her,
• 47:30
  like the weapon, the the dragon, the story is, Oh my God, the
• 47:36
  faction that I'm so excited about that faction.
• 47:41
  But. And that face mask and the face
• 47:43
  mask, was that obvious? Was was it?
• 47:45
  Really. No.
• 47:46
  And then what you zoomed in on, you see the dragon scales, and
• 47:48
  that's something really nice. Yeah, it's kind of got scales
• 47:51
  like a snake, like a dragon slash snake.
• 47:54
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like her and a lot of soft
• 48:00
  goods doing the heavy lifting here on the kind of.
• 48:02
  Silhouette. Yeah, yeah, I didn't realize
• 48:06
  somebody mentioned that. One of the shows too.
• 48:08
  That torso armor thing is is the same as Aries axe.
• 48:14
  Yeah. So that's a clever reason for
• 48:16
  that. Yeah, I didn't pick up on it,
• 48:17
  but yeah, that's a really, really clever use of that.
• 48:20
  Yes, and we got the these look like the arms from Bastet.
• 48:30
  Yes, somebody asked Trevor and he said the underneath is
• 48:34
  basically stats build, right? Right.
• 48:37
  Oh, excellent. So we're getting, are we
• 48:40
  potentially getting that cloth torso again, the wraps, the
• 48:44
  bandages maybe do you think? Although it doesn't look like it
• 48:46
  does it. Well, we got some sort of wraps
• 48:49
  here as well as accessories. Where are they going?
• 48:53
  Are they little? They're going around the.
• 48:54
  Serpent. They look like little serpents,
• 48:57
  don't they? Little Serpent looks like like a
• 49:00
  little. We could be, yeah.
• 49:04
  Very exciting and the dragon, obviously we said it's very cool
• 49:07
  dragon. The dragon just sets up.
• 49:09
  When they first came up, I was just like, it's a 2.0, OK, and
• 49:13
  then obviously spotted the dragon instinct was like, well
• 49:15
  that's got a dragon, so that's incredible.
• 49:17
  And then spotted the Talon at the top of the weapon is like oh
• 49:20
  hello, hello. Yeah.
• 49:23
  And this, this little piece around the neck and that's part
• 49:27
  of the head, is it? Yeah, it is part of the.
• 49:29
  Head. Yeah, it looks like yeah.
• 49:31
  Kind of reminds me a bit of the Valax curve, but obviously it's
• 49:35
  works in a different way if it's connected to the head.
• 49:38
  But people will, you know, customers would be slicing that
• 49:41
  off and using it for different reasons.
• 49:43
  Oh goodness, yeah. Very good I I see on Trevor's
• 49:49
  Dios here. He's got a cool dragon as well
• 49:51
  behind on the dial on the left side here.
• 49:55
  Yeah, yeah. All the since everywhere since
• 49:59
  everywhere. Always got that really cool.
• 50:02
  Umm, So I just bought the cup behind her to her left, to our
• 50:06
  right as we're looking at some actually a customs piece.
• 50:08
  It's a very cool custom piece that yeah, I've got one of those
• 50:11
  that. Is very cool I'm.
• 50:14
  Sure, they were delighted to see all these snake men and right.
• 50:19
  Shall we move on then we give the 2.0 the time they deserve.
• 50:26
  Not right, Rich. Oh yeah, it's plenty of time.
• 50:31
  Right. Not all of the soldiers who
• 50:33
  fought for Arathera in the First Great War were created by
• 50:36
  jealous God Helius. Some of those warriors were
• 50:39
  turned to the side of evil. The Knoll was some of the great
• 50:43
  mothers, most loyal followers, expert trackers who would be
• 50:46
  sent out to find the rescue those in need.
• 50:48
  A group of these animal Animalians were captured by the
• 50:53
  gods of War, for God of Wars forces twisted and tortured,
• 50:57
  this gang of Knoll trackers eventually forgot the teachings
• 51:00
  of Celine and the natural instincts of the race to become
• 51:03
  Arathea's most vicious hunters, tracking down his enemies and
• 51:07
  dispatching them with ruthless efficiency.
• 51:10
  Led by the cruel Windaji, this group became known as the
• 51:14
  Cacklers. While the peaceful Knoll, or one
• 51:16
  of the races, has long since disappeared from mythos, rumours
• 51:20
  persist of a pack of Cacklers who still run the wastelands
• 51:23
  hunting any who are unlucky enough to cross their path.
• 51:30
  So then we got a wolf dude. So Windaji Hyena.
• 51:39
  Sorry Hyena, but it's going to be a werewolf.
• 51:41
  It's going to be a werewolf. At some point, that body's going
• 51:44
  to be a werewolf. Yeah, yeah.
• 51:46
  Yeah, what did you think? Then Richie got snakes, and then
• 51:51
  you got this. I was delirious at this point.
• 51:55
  It was just like, you know, a first thing I thought was I can
• 51:58
  do a werewolf for that. And then the second thought that
• 52:00
  immediately behind it was, Oh my goodness, I love hyenas.
• 52:03
  So that's really cool. I have a cosmic hyena in my
• 52:06
  scumbags in the Galaxy for instance.
• 52:09
  And you, so yeah, you also pointed out to me at least I
• 52:13
  don't know if that it's got what you call it come blank
• 52:18
  articulation, double jointed. Double joint.
• 52:22
  Yes, it's got the 3.0 articulation, Yeah.
• 52:24
  Yeah, so this is 3.0 so we're going to get more complicated
• 52:28
  and nerdy when we talk about Mythic Legions builds when this
• 52:30
  one comes out Yeah, so just to apply joints in the shoulders
• 52:35
  and double jointed knees and elbows, so.
• 52:41
  And I think with this build, I mean, I'm, I'm a bit like Jeremy
• 52:44
  Gerard in this aspect. I I don't necessarily want
• 52:47
  double jointed this, that and the others, but on this build it
• 52:49
  works perfectly. You know the the way the fur and
• 52:52
  everything it blends in absolutely fine.
• 52:54
  Yeah, sorry Mel that I just steal your line.
• 52:56
  No. No, I was literally going.
• 52:58
  That is exactly how I feel is, I mean, spoiler, I think this
• 53:03
  might be my favorite from the wave, but it's also, it's also
• 53:07
  the one I'm most nervous about because of that double
• 53:10
  jointedness and how that will end up looking.
• 53:15
  So we'll have to see. Yeah, but he looks incredible,
• 53:19
  doesn't he? Yeah, so he's got, he really
• 53:21
  does. He's got the couple of portraits
• 53:23
  here at the closed mouth, the open mouth looking pretty
• 53:26
  fierce. The belt is awesome as well.
• 53:31
  It's a big like belt, but I think it's different.
• 53:37
  Just the current turn ONS had a as a kind of a skull on, but
• 53:40
  it's a different 1. And pauldrons are new as well,
• 53:45
  which is really cool. Yeah.
• 53:49
  Yeah, and it's the sort of fur limbs as well, isn't it?
• 53:52
  Which you've not had before. Yeah, so.
• 53:54
  Again, all out here. Yeah.
• 53:56
  And we've. So we've got these and obviously
• 54:00
  we do have Monkey King, who gave us some fur parts, not all the
• 54:04
  limbs and stuff, but you know, feet and hands and.
• 54:08
  So anthropomorphic lovers just didn't happen at this point, and
• 54:11
  I'm one of them. It's called Rain of the Beasts,
• 54:15
  the wave, you know, so so they had to come, you know, they had
• 54:19
  to come through with it, you know, and every figure so far as
• 54:24
  that kind of beats stuff. Maybe the the genome guy, the
• 54:31
  fire dude. Yeah, he doesn't.
• 54:33
  Maybe would he's still pretty beastly and observe.
• 54:37
  I tell you what, one person that should pay attention to this
• 54:39
  figure is Sebadom because he retired his werewolf head
• 54:43
  sculpt. But the way that's built it fits
• 54:45
  perfectly with this build is it's more forward set rather
• 54:48
  than going on the top. So he should unretire that piece
• 54:51
  very quickly. Yeah, but he'll be, I guess
• 54:53
  their shop will be closed by the time this figure comes out, so.
• 54:56
  No, they've extended from another year.
• 54:58
  Yeah, but oh, cool. This is not going to come out in
• 55:01
  the year. Oh, but on the figure comes out.
• 55:04
  Sorry, I'm in the episode, John. Yes, you'd have to.
• 55:06
  You'd have to buy it in anticipation.
• 55:08
  Yeah, good to you. Just a.
• 55:11
  Patient who plans their customs like you rich nobody.
• 55:16
  That's the problem. People go spur the moment.
• 55:19
  So this was I. Need to do more doing and less
• 55:21
  planning I think is the key with my customs.
• 55:23
  This was the big glamour shot from Trevor.
• 55:26
  My only problem with this shot was that because I was far from
• 55:29
  the screen and I'm old, I thought that it had back legs
• 55:32
  because of that tree. Yeah, totally with you on that
• 55:36
  one. I got very confused about what
• 55:37
  the thing. Wasn't really just because you
• 55:39
  see it once, you see it in good resolution and and up close it's
• 55:43
  really cool. Love it.
• 55:45
  Again, another figure kind of bring people into the line.
• 55:48
  So a lot of people have been I mean, this just is a badass.
• 55:53
  I'm I'm firmer. Well.
• 55:57
  More. Type, type creature, but those
• 56:03
  double joints, people who have yeah, articulation.
• 56:07
  Snobs, you can come over now. Yeah.
• 56:09
  We welcome you in with open arms.
• 56:11
  Yeah. Teach you how to customize
• 56:14
  legions. And that's the exciting thing.
• 56:17
  There were parts of it. Jeremy did say there'll be parts
• 56:21
  that won't be compatible, but there'll be other parts that are
• 56:25
  compatible with. Was it 1.0?
• 56:28
  I think, yeah, yeah, 1.0. That'll be fun that you can mix
• 56:32
  and match this with a 1.0. Yeah, but it won't be ordering
• 56:39
  extras until I know which is which, You know what I mean?
• 56:42
  I mean, I'll be ordering extras if I want an extra figure for
• 56:45
  myself, but I won't be ordering customizing extras.
• 56:47
  Until yeah, yeah. Until I know so.
• 56:50
  You know you need a tribe of calculus, don't you say?
• 56:53
  You do, I think Jeremy says something like 53 is a tribe or
• 56:57
  something like that. He's just trolling you with
• 57:01
  that. No, I'm just teasing.
• 57:02
  You didn't say that. Yeah, he's, he's just, he's got.
• 57:07
  I didn't say OK, OK, he's corrected himself.
• 57:11
  The weapons, too. I love both the swords that come
• 57:13
  with this guy. Yeah, I think they're both new,
• 57:15
  aren't they? Yeah.
• 57:16
  Yeah. And that big one, I've got a 3D
• 57:19
  sculpted one from Sebadom actually planetary dog toys.
• 57:21
  It looks exactly like that. And it's just such a, you know,
• 57:24
  it's a sword, but it's a bludgeoning sword.
• 57:26
  It's you're not messing around with that.
• 57:28
  It's like the snake man weapon. It's a club as much as it is a
• 57:31
  sword sort of thing. So I love and then curved you.
• 57:33
  I've said on the show before I love curved blades so.
• 57:35
  Yeah. And I've got a custom that could
• 57:37
  absolutely already, well, he's in the process of being made
• 57:40
  that could absolutely use that curved blade.
• 57:42
  So I might hold off for a bit longer on that.
• 57:48
  A bit longer, yeah. Yeah.
• 57:49
  And this is a legion of our tears.
• 57:51
  So again, another action that gets pulled into this wave.
• 57:57
  So quite a nice variety of factions and stuff and I think
• 58:02
  he fits in well with them considering the bio price.
• 58:09
  Golden pride of Leandor. So this was the first kind of, I
• 58:14
  would say boring, but kind of more.
• 58:17
  This would have been the figure I would have expected first in
• 58:19
  the general run of things, if you know what I mean.
• 58:21
  This is the builder, isn't it? Let's see.
• 58:24
  I mean, it's a hell of a builder.
• 58:25
  But it's a builder. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 58:28
  Best builder ever. OK, well give us the bio belt.
• 58:34
  We talk more. The soldiers who fought besides
• 58:37
  the mighty Lion lead it. Lee Odysseus, in the first Great
• 58:40
  War of mythos, would go on to become the foundation upon which
• 58:43
  the army, the boy his name would be built.
• 58:46
  Now known as the Golden Pride of Leandor, this battalion of
• 58:49
  warriors guardedly Odysseus flanks as he fought against the
• 58:53
  fiery Arathea. After the war was when the
• 58:55
  surviving members of the Pride would become commanders in the
• 58:59
  new Kingdom that was formed with the greatest leader, a man named
• 59:03
  Atarius, taking on the surname Leasser and becoming the first
• 59:07
  king of Leandor. There you go.
• 59:12
  So is this atarius then or? No.
• 59:15
  No, it's not. Yeah, I think Atarius is is
• 59:20
  going to be Atlas and Attila's dad, isn't it?
• 59:24
  Oh, I. Think it's further back than
• 59:27
  that, isn't it? Is it granddad?
• 59:29
  Yeah, I think, I think like many, because if this is the
• 59:32
  first Great War, it's probably great, great, great, great,
• 59:34
  great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great
• 59:36
  Granddad. So that doesn't roll off the
• 59:38
  tongue as well, doesn't. It doesn't, no.
• 59:41
  I didn't know when to stop, to be honest.
• 59:42
  It's probably further back than that, but it's loud enough.
• 59:44
  We'll get Jeremy to specify exactly how great again.
• 59:49
  Great Times 23. So obviously Army of the
• 59:54
  Odysseus and. This is another 3.0 was it?
• 59:59
  Yes, that's what they said. Yeah, you can see the joints.
• 1:00:03
  You can. See on those arms, can't you?
• 1:00:06
  Although even I wouldn't pose him like that so.
• 1:00:10
  That's exactly how he's going to get posed on my shelf, so.
• 1:00:14
  In fairness, it probably is on mine, but you'd have a shield in
• 1:00:16
  front of. You could bend the arm a little
• 1:00:18
  bit more. Yeah, Yeah.
• 1:00:20
  And so he's got the lion mask or it's a cat mask and is not sure
• 1:00:28
  if it's a line, I guess. Is that Hadriana's Mask?
• 1:00:30
  Just I'm sized a little slightly different.
• 1:00:33
  It is. It is different.
• 1:00:33
  Is that OK? It's different, Yeah,
• 1:00:35
  definitely. Umm, and it's pretty much all
• 1:00:38
  new. Yeah, down to the sandals.
• 1:00:40
  Yeah, all that armoronies wearing sandals is this is
• 1:00:44
  historically accurate, Rich. It is.
• 1:00:46
  It is. The Romans are idiots.
• 1:00:50
  Yeah. Oh yeah, it was very, very good.
• 1:00:52
  Very rocky. So they stubbed their toe.
• 1:00:57
  Is that why they build the good roads?
• 1:00:59
  Yeah, in when they when they were in the colder climates,
• 1:01:02
  they'd have a slightly more of a wrapping on it rather than just
• 1:01:04
  an open sandal. But yeah, any of them in like
• 1:01:07
  Africa or it's built? Thousands of miles of roads, but
• 1:01:10
  not invent a shoe. Wow.
• 1:01:16
  Yeah, and they kind of got half sleeves here.
• 1:01:21
  Yeah, again, that's exciting to see Half sleeves.
• 1:01:27
  Very cool and open possibilities for all sorts of different type
• 1:01:30
  of figures. I mean definitely reused in
• 1:01:33
  cosmic the the half sleeves. Yeah, you have.
• 1:01:38
  An alien wearing AT shirt on you.
• 1:01:40
  It's going to happen, of course, you know anything.
• 1:01:44
  Cute guy, Yeah, and you get the alternate head with the big.
• 1:01:48
  Another fantastic human male sort of head sculpt isn't.
• 1:01:55
  It he just looks annoyed, doesn't he?
• 1:01:57
  Just looks really, really bad. Oh yeah.
• 1:01:59
  Paid off. Yeah, totally.
• 1:02:02
  He's just, he's just killed half a dozen demons and he's on to
• 1:02:04
  the next group because he's just, he's angry.
• 1:02:08
  Yeah, he's just angry. But he's sandals.
• 1:02:11
  Yeah, Why can't somebody get me shoes?
• 1:02:14
  These guys are fighting them shoes.
• 1:02:16
  What's going on? They got spiky ones as well.
• 1:02:19
  What the hell? Yeah, he's angry.
• 1:02:21
  Orcs, I mean, you know, not even human.
• 1:02:26
  Yeah, so. And there's the beautiful
• 1:02:29
  glamour shot. Look at that.
• 1:02:30
  Look at the way that lights going off the shield and
• 1:02:32
  everything. I loved, I mean I love this
• 1:02:34
  figure because obviously, as everyone knows, I studied Roman
• 1:02:36
  history at university, so this is absolutely right up my alley.
• 1:02:40
  But I loved Derek's reasoning behind why he looks like a Roman
• 1:02:43
  soldiers, because it's set however many hundreds, thousands
• 1:02:46
  of years before the current mythos age sort of thing.
• 1:02:49
  Therefore use more ancient armor rather than the medieval sort of
• 1:02:53
  stuff. So very clever, very cleverly
• 1:02:55
  done, and a very clever way to get it into the line.
• 1:02:59
  And more new weapons here. And then the figure that will
• 1:03:01
  bring loads of people into the line.
• 1:03:04
  Oh yes? Well, I think so, yeah.
• 1:03:06
  It really will. I mean I know they say they're
• 1:03:08
  going to order less of these now from pre-orders.
• 1:03:10
  This wave I think should be the one way they don't do that
• 1:03:12
  because you're going to get people turning up toy shows just
• 1:03:15
  buying loads of this like loads and loads of this one loads and
• 1:03:18
  loads of snakes. You know it just.
• 1:03:21
  And as it's a little bit of a smaller wave, people will be
• 1:03:26
  more easily able to afford the all in to get all the figures,
• 1:03:32
  not maybe have to cherry pick or whatever.
• 1:03:34
  And people that like to buy a lot can buy a lot more, although
• 1:03:39
  of course we're saving as well for something big.
• 1:03:42
  So but we don't plan ahead, do we?
• 1:03:45
  We just what's in front? Yeah.
• 1:03:48
  Yeah, again, that paint on the shield.
• 1:03:50
  I mean, you know, I'm a big fan of Shields with decoration and
• 1:03:53
  this is just another classic. It's interesting that it has and
• 1:03:57
  it was pointed out, specifically pointed out how it's it's all
• 1:04:03
  the factions on are on there. Right.
• 1:04:08
  So it's got Basilia snakes, it's got heath runs wings, it's got
• 1:04:15
  the lion, yeah, and the antlers. So it's that's interesting that
• 1:04:21
  why is that Shield got all of them on it.
• 1:04:24
  What was it was they were fighting together before?
• 1:04:28
  I mean, it probably is just that, but it's an interesting
• 1:04:30
  design choice. I mean, they also said that on
• 1:04:35
  the bio it said race and it said various.
• 1:04:37
  Although we're getting a human pride of golden pride, so you
• 1:04:42
  could have elves. Hence the connection to Zylonia
• 1:04:45
  maybe, yes. So there's all that sort of feel
• 1:04:49
  to it as well. They need to tighten those belts
• 1:04:51
  on the on the old corset to get the ads in there skinny lads.
• 1:04:59
  I suspect will no doubt very quickly see a dwarf and version.
• 1:05:02
  After a Chinese Anthony's already made it, he just needs
• 1:05:06
  to put the head on top of whatever and the the dorsal.
• 1:05:11
  Yeah, no, this, this, this is incredible.
• 1:05:13
  My zesry Romans are in trouble. It has to be said, John, the
• 1:05:19
  only. Four, if you'd like those in the
• 1:05:21
  next years. The only thing extra I would
• 1:05:24
  like, and this is me being demanding and a bit of a history
• 1:05:28
  geek, is a pylon spear rather than the one that came with.
• 1:05:32
  So that's like a thick spear. So it's a thicker base of this
• 1:05:37
  thicker shaft. Oh God, look what I'm doing.
• 1:05:39
  Thicker shaft. And then it goes into almost
• 1:05:42
  like a yeah, almost like a rectangular bit and then a
• 1:05:44
  really thin end with a point on. It's once you see it, you know
• 1:05:48
  it sort of thing. And that's, that's the action.
• 1:05:50
  That's the that's the actual spear they had.
• 1:05:54
  OK. But again, there's so many new
• 1:05:56
  parts in this, I'm not going to criticize Eric for not not going
• 1:05:59
  historically accurate with that. Yeah, it's mythos and.
• 1:06:05
  And in mythos you have another great beast he's called John,
• 1:06:09
  the Odysseus you keep. Diving head to forget my last
• 1:06:12
  fact in. I was watching Jeremy show Fact,
• 1:06:15
  Yeah, and he said it's not Europe.
• 1:06:18
  Then. No, he said the Roman fact will
• 1:06:20
  be oh, so you got me. In fact now he said the Roman
• 1:06:24
  look back off. Indeed.
• 1:06:26
  Yeah, he said that the Roman look will definitely be 100% be
• 1:06:30
  coming, coming back in different colours and all this sort of
• 1:06:33
  stuff. So that's very exciting too
• 1:06:35
  sweet. Yeah, I hope, I actually do hope
• 1:06:38
  that we get like a real Legion builder, you know the kind of
• 1:06:43
  eventually the $26 or maybe 30 by that time dollar version that
• 1:06:47
  we can just customize to our hearts content.
• 1:06:49
  Yeah, that'd be awesome. Yeah, that would be cool,
• 1:06:52
  wouldn't it, Right, Lee Odysseus.
• 1:06:58
  The first of the great beasts given life by Celine, Lee
• 1:07:02
  Odysseus the Lion towered above the brave soldiers he led him to
• 1:07:06
  battle during the first Great War of Mythos.
• 1:07:09
  A shining example of bravery, Lee Odysseus faced off against
• 1:07:13
  the demonic Aretha, using his massive hammer to defeat the
• 1:07:18
  fiery God of War. The Lion's motto to be the
• 1:07:22
  shield that protects the realm and the sword that strike those
• 1:07:26
  who threaten its peace would form the core belief of the army
• 1:07:30
  that would eventually bear his name.
• 1:07:32
  That army would follow the example of unwavering dedication
• 1:07:36
  to military strength that Lee Odysseus showed during the First
• 1:07:40
  Great War, and his courage would be revered for all time within
• 1:07:44
  the Kingdom of Leandor. Oh, I think he he went for that
• 1:07:50
  Rich, you're going to. Be some dramatic music in the
• 1:07:51
  background there, Job I. Might, yeah.
• 1:07:55
  I might have to underlay that with a little bit of it's too
• 1:07:59
  good now. Yeah.
• 1:08:01
  Maybe even more excited for him now.
• 1:08:03
  So the first thing you have to say about this guy is that I got
• 1:08:07
  a number of messages and people saying to me in person
• 1:08:09
  afterwards that, oh finally the real hammer.
• 1:08:13
  So it turns out Attila has a tiny little hammer.
• 1:08:17
  He does somebody said what Joe Joe wants to polo subsequently,
• 1:08:23
  you know, maybe when they're putting the figures in the
• 1:08:25
  display case out in the hall or whatever.
• 1:08:27
  He he brought that the actual 1.0 hammer, the one that comes
• 1:08:32
  with Attila. So the Dick has a tiny hammer.
• 1:08:37
  Well, there we go. We just to see the the size.
• 1:08:41
  You can see that the red shield soldier night there in the
• 1:08:43
  picture they posted. Yeah, I was, I was thinking when
• 1:08:47
  when there was when you read the bio, Yeah, when you read the
• 1:08:51
  bio, you're like, he was like, hey, guys, I'm here to lead you
• 1:08:54
  in battle, guys. And they're just everyone's
• 1:08:56
  running the other way going, Oh my God, this guy's going to eat
• 1:08:58
  us. Just scattering to the winds.
• 1:09:02
  And he's like, no, no, no, no, no, I'm into right now.
• 1:09:04
  No. Oh, never mind.
• 1:09:07
  Yeah, so this is an amazing figure, I mean.
• 1:09:12
  Incredible. It's incredible yeah you don't
• 1:09:16
  have to even like the faction if you don't want, but he is just
• 1:09:20
  incredible and I I don't mind to lead this as I actually think
• 1:09:24
  it's cool faction so so just a. Leader, isn't he?
• 1:09:29
  Yeah, he is the real leader. Yeah, Yeah, this guy is the real
• 1:09:32
  leader and he's got two expressions, maybe 3
• 1:09:35
  expressions. You can see he's got the open
• 1:09:37
  mouth as well, so that's pretty sweet and they.
• 1:09:40
  Are they were pointing out actually that although you can't
• 1:09:44
  see it, I'm pointing at my screen.
• 1:09:45
  That's not helpful, is it? Although you can't see it on the
• 1:09:47
  go back John to the individual bits.
• 1:09:50
  Or the individual ones, yeah. Yeah, although you can't see in
• 1:09:52
  the head sculpt there, they'll actually have holes in the top
• 1:09:54
  above the eyes, so you can just pin the crown in because that's
• 1:09:58
  only way they can do it. Yeah.
• 1:10:01
  Only notice today looking at it, of all the you know, of all
• 1:10:04
  things to notice now again on his armour, he's got all the
• 1:10:08
  other. Beasts.
• 1:10:10
  Yeah, that is so cool. Shoulder pauldrons have got on
• 1:10:16
  his chest. He's got Basilia, he's got
• 1:10:19
  himself and. On there, yeah, I was going to
• 1:10:24
  say he's got himself directly above Silone on his groin area,
• 1:10:27
  which is a bit dodge, but we'll skip past that, yeah.
• 1:10:30
  Yeah, he's got a little tribute to Silone on his headdress as
• 1:10:34
  well. Actually saw someone asking if
• 1:10:37
  that was removable, that they'd prefer without it.
• 1:10:39
  But no, I don't think it is Hanson.
• 1:10:42
  No, no, it wouldn't work with it.
• 1:10:44
  There'll just be a hole there. He wouldn't.
• 1:10:46
  Look at me. Just no.
• 1:10:47
  He looks amazing. Exactly.
• 1:10:50
  Yeah, Yeah, this is definitely my favorite figure.
• 1:10:56
  Although I do I think Basilia because of the faction, but this
• 1:11:00
  one has a figure, you know, if you're to give me one figure.
• 1:11:04
  It's it's a one line. Come on.
• 1:11:06
  See job, isn't it? Yeah, this wave, really.
• 1:11:09
  Is I feel a little, we feel we're all a little bit like now
• 1:11:13
  and this one, they're just all good.
• 1:11:14
  You know, it's hard to decide. So I could, I will honestly say
• 1:11:18
  that. Yeah.
• 1:11:19
  And and it's no slight on it. It's just not my kind of thing.
• 1:11:22
  That the, the Roman Centurion luck indeed.
• 1:11:25
  I forgot what he's called, really.
• 1:11:26
  He's probably Golden Pride. Yeah, the Golden Pride is
• 1:11:29
  probably #2 the rest of one ABCD, right?
• 1:11:34
  So you can all mail everybody. Have you?
• 1:11:37
  I think you. Look great and lead this use
• 1:11:39
  guys or or shall we just give our ranking?
• 1:11:44
  I thought the armor, it's not designed for this, but I maybe
• 1:11:47
  it's my the way my mind works, but I thought the armor had a
• 1:11:49
  vaguely Egyptian sort of feel to it as well with the headdress
• 1:11:52
  with the sort of things and different colours down there
• 1:11:55
  sort of thing, which I quite liked as well.
• 1:11:58
  Lion, Egyptian Africa, you know, Yeah, it works.
• 1:12:03
  And then the Furuku scale pieces is just like, you know.
• 1:12:07
  The Bella nature of that is incredible.
• 1:12:09
  How about us? Us being like, oh, they need to
• 1:12:12
  make him they need to make him brute scale too so he can figure
• 1:12:16
  it and then and then he's. Like, yeah, we did seem.
• 1:12:19
  Better. I.
• 1:12:21
  Didn't want to mention that, but I was adamant in the run upturn.
• 1:12:24
  I said several times, no, Ogre's too big.
• 1:12:26
  Brute's fine, don't need ogre, don't need ogre.
• 1:12:28
  And he comes out and you're like, well, Ogre's perfect.
• 1:12:30
  Yeah, that's exactly how he should look.
• 1:12:34
  Yeah, even the most arrogant people could look at this and
• 1:12:38
  go, you know what? I was wrong.
• 1:12:40
  Yeah. This is perfect.
• 1:12:43
  Yeah. And so for me, I think he's my
• 1:12:47
  one with Basilia close second. Then I think because he's so
• 1:12:58
  similar, the other snake, I'm going to go for Genome just
• 1:13:02
  because he's crazy figure. And then the other snake guy,
• 1:13:08
  the Cackler, the golden pride, the night and the last one is
• 1:13:14
  unfortunately area even though she's really cool as a with the
• 1:13:17
  dragon, but yeah. For me, it's between certainly
• 1:13:24
  and everybody, it's between him and the cackler for #1 the
• 1:13:29
  cackler. As I say, I'm also very, very
• 1:13:31
  nervous about the double jointedness on there.
• 1:13:33
  So that is, that's a little bit. Why it?
• 1:13:39
  Then it's Basilia the third, but A11C.
• 1:13:49
  Then it's probably the serpent Spire guard or whatever it's
• 1:13:55
  called. Then it's the other snake.
• 1:13:59
  Yeah, yeah, the other snake. Then it's Jahia or whatever.
• 1:14:04
  It's kind of getting the names or the gin.
• 1:14:06
  Yeah, the gin. Then it's the lady with the
• 1:14:11
  arrow. Yeah, which feels wrong because
• 1:14:15
  as I say, there's so much cool stuff about her.
• 1:14:17
  It's weird. She's a really weird one for me
• 1:14:20
  because I don't like putting her there.
• 1:14:21
  I want to near the top, but then you look at all the others and
• 1:14:24
  you're like, Oh no. And then last but not least, the
• 1:14:30
  And it is easier fact. They're fantastic looking, but
• 1:14:32
  the pride ones, they're just, it is, it's the Legion.
• 1:14:36
  Yeah, but you're not the biggest kind of knight.
• 1:14:39
  So no, all Roman soldiers. Yeah, the very fantastical
• 1:14:44
  thing. So yeah.
• 1:14:47
  Right, Rich, give us your one to serve.
• 1:14:50
  For me, the Serpent Spire Royal guard is my number one.
• 1:14:54
  That's everything I want in a snake person.
• 1:14:57
  As cool as Brasilia is he, he's absolutely number one for me.
• 1:15:00
  Windaji the cackler #2 fur parts hyena, Yeah, brilliant weapons.
• 1:15:09
  Third one for me is the Golden Pride of Leander because it's
• 1:15:12
  Roman stuff. So again, takes all boxes.
• 1:15:15
  Me, then Lee Odysseus, then Basilia, she's a snake, but I've
• 1:15:20
  already got a snake really high up and there's other cool stuff.
• 1:15:23
  Then Genome. And lastly, our the Talam
• 1:15:26
  Bearer, again, she's a really cool looking figure about this.
• 1:15:30
  There's so much goodness in this wave that somebody has to be
• 1:15:32
  last. Yep, somebody has to be last
• 1:15:36
  First. Maybe last as.
• 1:15:37
  Teachers say to kids in school, don't think yourself a 7th,
• 1:15:40
  you're the 6th runner up. That's a bit too much, right?
• 1:15:48
  We need to move this along. So then we got this guy
• 1:15:52
  revealed. Be it there.
• 1:15:55
  Well, we got against. The very end of the Yeah, yeah,
• 1:15:58
  but. You know, I think as as figures,
• 1:16:01
  I think we'll go on to the other stuff after.
• 1:16:03
  Yeah. And so let's talk about him
• 1:16:07
  because he's irrelevant to the figures.
• 1:16:10
  Yeah. So pre-order campaign in
• 1:16:13
  January. What's that Rich?
• 1:16:15
  I was. Going to say I was disappointed
• 1:16:17
  he wasn't bigger if I'm honest. Yeah.
• 1:16:24
  So he's going to be available through Horsemen in January 2025
• 1:16:30
  and and at this time he'll only be directly available through
• 1:16:33
  Forcement. So I guess it'll depend on the
• 1:16:35
  campaign goals. People can go on about
• 1:16:38
  international chipping and all that kind of stuff.
• 1:16:40
  You either want to or you don't think at this point.
• 1:16:43
  So it's just the way it is. And you just have to figure it
• 1:16:46
  out or it's going to be. Or you just wait and see what
• 1:16:49
  happens. You know, you can't be, you
• 1:16:52
  can't be really wanting it and can't live without it and
• 1:16:55
  complaining and not get. So yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:16:59
  I think that's unfortunately the way it is.
• 1:17:02
  You know, if there was enough interest, they could maybe drop
• 1:17:05
  ship it from China to some distributor in Europe, one of
• 1:17:09
  the retailers maybe. But I think that's not something
• 1:17:13
  they're prioritizing. First up, I think they want to
• 1:17:14
  get it funded, which is fair enough.
• 1:17:17
  And it's tricky for the retailer, isn't it, because them
• 1:17:19
  in the boxes are going to be enormous.
• 1:17:21
  So unless you've got a warehouse, you're going to
• 1:17:23
  struggle to sort of store that to even then ship out to people.
• 1:17:26
  Exactly right. So there it is.
• 1:17:31
  I've meant to put the centimetres on here just to be
• 1:17:33
  pedantic, but I didn't. 31 inches in kind of width and 22
• 1:17:43
  inches tall. So I guess 22 or 31 inches kind
• 1:17:47
  of what how much space it takes up on a table.
• 1:17:51
  Yeah. So it's huge.
• 1:17:53
  It's massive. Yeah.
• 1:17:54
  Yeah. It's what, 9394 centimeters?
• 1:17:56
  It's yeah, it's a big boy. Almost a meter, you know?
• 1:18:00
  Yeah, so incredible. And you see it also will come
• 1:18:06
  with a second packet that comes with flames.
• 1:18:10
  And I don't know, they said it's going to come with some sort of
• 1:18:13
  an accessory pack, extended tail, the wings that go slightly
• 1:18:17
  differently, I think is it? More like fly wings.
• 1:18:20
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
• 1:18:22
  And when that when that is with the flame and everything, that's
• 1:18:30
  going to be 70 inches. So 16 inches with the flame, 54
• 1:18:38
  with the kind of tail and everything, and 28 inches high
• 1:18:41
  with those wings. So yeah, ridiculous.
• 1:18:44
  I mean, we can talk about the reaction.
• 1:18:47
  We posted the video on our Instagram that we took when we
• 1:18:51
  were there. See the reaction.
• 1:18:53
  Actually looked back at the G Con live stream to see it and
• 1:18:58
  unfortunately they had the name of the figure up on the screen
• 1:19:01
  is like this like we have here and the the whole Wheeling out
• 1:19:04
  of the dragon was just taking place in a small little box on
• 1:19:08
  the side. So they should have just maybe
• 1:19:11
  removed the presentation. But as you know it was obviously
• 1:19:13
  I don't blame anyone for that. It was just a, you know, Jeremy
• 1:19:16
  was trying to exciting someone the.
• 1:19:18
  Moment as well. Yeah, probably wasn't so, yeah.
• 1:19:21
  But we have a couple. You have lots of people that
• 1:19:22
  took videos of that being wheeled out.
• 1:19:24
  So you see it all over social media.
• 1:19:26
  That was, yeah, it was pretty crazy.
• 1:19:29
  So there's a bit of story behind this, and it's Trevor's
• 1:19:35
  beautiful shot. We can do the story as well.
• 1:19:39
  Now, there's the size comparison.
• 1:19:41
  Before we do that, look at that. There's a troll in that picture,
• 1:19:45
  and a horse, and a goblin that you can hardly see.
• 1:19:49
  The fact it dwarfs the troll isn't it?
• 1:19:51
  It's yeah. That's the real like, wow.
• 1:19:54
  Moment I'm so seriously my wife loves Dragons.
• 1:20:00
  It's where I'm. Happy I don't have to justify it
• 1:20:02
  to anyone. No, you know, it's, it's not
• 1:20:07
  justifying, it's more just explaining, explaining.
• 1:20:09
  Explaining why you're giving up the space.
• 1:20:12
  For this size, it's not the money.
• 1:20:13
  It's, I mean, the money is something, but it's it's the
• 1:20:16
  summer you're going to put it, yeah.
• 1:20:18
  Yeah, yeah, totally. Yeah, totally.
• 1:20:20
  You're like looking at that picture, you know, as a haze.
• 1:20:22
  I was going to take a running jump and jump up and try and
• 1:20:24
  punch him. Yeah, in the face because he
• 1:20:25
  isn't reaching him because he's that big.
• 1:20:28
  Yeah, I mean, I'm looking here. I've got my laptop, mixer,
• 1:20:32
  camera, microphone, everything. It will not fit in this space
• 1:20:35
  that I podcast in it's table and whatever.
• 1:20:38
  I would have to have a wider if it was just to put it on this
• 1:20:42
  table. I was I did start to literally
• 1:20:46
  start to When was it in the last couple of days.
• 1:20:49
  Think maybe I should get a custom made table that you can
• 1:20:53
  sit in. That's tomorrow's problem.
• 1:20:57
  Yeah, you know, and then you see it here, took a couple of
• 1:21:02
  pictures in the cabinet That's they seem to have customized the
• 1:21:07
  skeleton. Yeah, I think it's maybe the red
• 1:21:10
  dead body. Yeah.
• 1:21:11
  And they charred up a skeleton head, so it's just getting
• 1:21:14
  absolutely baked in flames there.
• 1:21:17
  You was it you that said, Rich when we were looking at it that
• 1:21:20
  you could put a figure in the middle of that fire?
• 1:21:23
  Someone of somebody around me said that.
• 1:21:25
  And then the character in the cabinet, which was brilliant.
• 1:21:30
  And there's a close up shot I took from the cabinet.
• 1:21:35
  So this is just me taking a picture of the prototype.
• 1:21:39
  So they have two prototypes of this.
• 1:21:41
  They did two sculpts, which is our 22 prints.
• 1:21:47
  I suppose you know, Can you imagine how long that took to
• 1:21:50
  come out with the printer for the prototype?
• 1:21:52
  Paint. Yeah, it's like, you know, Yeah,
• 1:21:55
  sharing your Cameron. We need, we need.
• 1:21:57
  The whole dragon, yeah. Yeah, we need you to play a
• 1:22:00
  dragon turn. Surprise, isn't it?
• 1:22:02
  Yeah, I was talking to her and she said it took three or four
• 1:22:05
  weeks to paint. Yeah.
• 1:22:08
  And yeah, she said it was a good while ago that she did.
• 1:22:13
  It was this year, but it was a good while ago.
• 1:22:15
  And so maybe start to the summer or something like this.
• 1:22:20
  And that, that was a fun story as well, wasn't it?
• 1:22:23
  They told that they did it smaller originally.
• 1:22:26
  Yeah. And it was Eric who even said
• 1:22:29
  it's not, it's not. It's not quite big.
• 1:22:31
  Let's try. Or somebody said to him about
• 1:22:34
  printing it bigger. Yeah.
• 1:22:35
  And he said yeah, as he tends to do.
• 1:22:38
  Why not give it a? Yeah, why not?
• 1:22:40
  Yeah. And the minute they brought out
• 1:22:41
  the bigger head, everyone in the studio was just like, yeah,
• 1:22:44
  that's that's what we need, the bigger head.
• 1:22:50
  So there is very happy looking Eric.
• 1:22:52
  They actually got delivery I think on the Sunday and they
• 1:22:55
  said it was this was on the Sunday of Legions Con.
• 1:22:58
  So I don't know whether delivered that day or whether
• 1:23:00
  they they got into the studio on the weekend and they just
• 1:23:03
  brought it over. This is an actual like first
• 1:23:07
  shot from the factory where they're doing the the fine cuts
• 1:23:11
  they call it. So this is actually factory
• 1:23:14
  plastic here, this big yellow dude.
• 1:23:18
  So they showed that they were talking about a bunch of people
• 1:23:21
  have videos on social media, so I don't need to maybe repeat
• 1:23:24
  that here. But I just took some photos.
• 1:23:26
  I will. Say, if you can see any of those
• 1:23:29
  videos on social media, and people probably have who were
• 1:23:31
  listening to this, how satisfying is the sound of that
• 1:23:35
  ratcheted wing? Yeah.
• 1:23:37
  It's like one of those they were letting zooming videos.
• 1:23:41
  Yeah, yeah. So I hope they keep that for the
• 1:23:44
  final because I would love them in that wing.
• 1:23:47
  Oh yeah, I think it'll all be ratcheted joints, those joints
• 1:23:51
  for sure. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:23:52
  They can't risk any sort of friction that's.
• 1:23:55
  One of the best things with the Masterpiece Transformers is when
• 1:23:57
  they start the ratchet start going and you're like, that's
• 1:23:59
  just such a good sound. So they're useful.
• 1:24:03
  Should we read the lore then to get through the drive for it?
• 1:24:06
  OK, take a drink of water. Take my.
• 1:24:11
  Camera. You go look at this oh drink or
• 1:24:16
  something. The Five Pillars of the First
• 1:24:21
  World, the history books of Mythos tell of a various scaled
• 1:24:25
  races and beings who have long since vanished from the realm.
• 1:24:29
  Even the Dragus here are nearly unknown across Mythos in the
• 1:24:32
  modern age, and the mighty behemoths whose traits they are
• 1:24:36
  said to share have long been considered little more than
• 1:24:39
  fantasies told children to distract and amuse.
• 1:24:44
  While it is true that there was once strange cults who
• 1:24:47
  worshipped ancient creatures they called the Five Pillars of
• 1:24:51
  the First World, those religions and their misguided followers
• 1:24:55
  vanished an age ago. Long has this been accepted
• 1:24:59
  truth of mythos. True Dragons did not exist.
• 1:25:03
  But then the Great Tremor shook the world and everything
• 1:25:07
  changed. The realms suddenly grew larger
• 1:25:11
  and the Dragons flew in mythos once again.
• 1:25:16
  One of the ancient Dragons known as the Five Pillars of the First
• 1:25:19
  World, the green dragon that makes its home in the deep
• 1:25:22
  forests of the West is called by many names Bayeatheere the
• 1:25:27
  Green, the Pillar of the West, and the Warden of the Wood being
• 1:25:32
  a few of those monikers. Baathir was the first of the
• 1:25:36
  pillars to emerge in the Montenegro mythos.
• 1:25:39
  This mighty dragon looked out upon a landscape that was both
• 1:25:43
  familiar and strange to him. In the middle of the Great Sea,
• 1:25:47
  an area where no land should have existed, a new continent
• 1:25:51
  now lay flying high above these uncharted lands.
• 1:25:55
  Baathir looked down and saw a golden tower rising high into
• 1:25:58
  the sky, its sides adorned with the likeness of mighty beasts.
• 1:26:04
  Strange beings gathered around the tower's base, pointing to
• 1:26:08
  the skies with fascination in their eyes.
• 1:26:11
  As Baathir circled high above the tower, the Pillar of the
• 1:26:14
  West could sense the threat before him.
• 1:26:17
  This land and its people did not belong.
• 1:26:20
  They were intruders in the world he had known for so long, and
• 1:26:23
  their presence had to be dealt with.
• 1:26:26
  Flying back towards his den, Baathir knew what he had to do.
• 1:26:30
  He could not remember the last time all five of the Pillars
• 1:26:33
  woke at the same time, but he also could not remember a threat
• 1:26:36
  as dire as what he saw before him.
• 1:26:38
  Now he must awaken the others, and together they would decide
• 1:26:43
  what must be done to save the world of Mythos.
• 1:26:48
  Really well done. Well, it's beautiful.
• 1:26:50
  Yeah, that's the audio box, the old mouth.
• 1:26:52
  Also more Dragons. More Dragon 5 Dragons.
• 1:26:58
  How exciting. What are we going to do?
• 1:27:01
  And oh, the bit we forgot to mention, this is the European
• 1:27:05
  dragon it is. That's very important on our.
• 1:27:09
  Live stream that's right on our live stream before Legions gone
• 1:27:13
  because that's actually the last time we were on together.
• 1:27:15
  Yeah, yeah. Where we talked about the types
• 1:27:17
  of dragon. Yeah, exactly.
• 1:27:19
  And that was one of them, the European.
• 1:27:21
  So this is the classic dragon. I think they kind of said that
• 1:27:24
  they were George. They were always going to do
• 1:27:26
  this type of dragon. I think that was yeah, their
• 1:27:29
  intention so, but we weren't to know.
• 1:27:31
  But yeah, I I can totally understand it because it is the
• 1:27:34
  coolest looking one. I mean, you know, the five or
• 1:27:38
  six headed one is is pretty cool as well as the Hydra.
• 1:27:42
  That was pretty cool as well. But.
• 1:27:45
  Imagine them bringing a hydra. Yeah, here we go.
• 1:27:48
  There's just like 7 heads. Enjoy.
• 1:27:50
  Here's a load of snake mana and a hydro dragon.
• 1:27:52
  And there's Rich. Yeah, yeah, I I love that.
• 1:28:00
  I love that little bit we recorded as in last week's
• 1:28:03
  episode where where it's you were.
• 1:28:05
  We're just talking on the floor about the snake man.
• 1:28:07
  That's just been revealed. It's about two-minute chat.
• 1:28:09
  You're just like, yeah, I'm just a bit on the floor for the last
• 1:28:13
  hour. I just love it.
• 1:28:17
  Such a good visual. It's the whole weekend, just
• 1:28:20
  figure after figure after figure that I desperately learned and
• 1:28:22
  I've been talking about for ages.
• 1:28:24
  You know, you know, in messages, I've kind of talked to people
• 1:28:28
  afterwards and like, we didn't talk enough.
• 1:28:30
  At least I didn't talk enough to anyone really.
• 1:28:33
  I mean, you guys, because we, we were roomed together, so and we
• 1:28:37
  were at the table together. So we got a good chance to to
• 1:28:39
  talk. But other than that, it's very
• 1:28:42
  hard to talk to, you know, because.
• 1:28:46
  Yeah, exactly. And depends who you run into,
• 1:28:48
  you know, if you go down to the lobby and then it's like, oh,
• 1:28:50
  they're, they're there. I'm going to go over and talk to
• 1:28:52
  those guys. And then, you know, you just
• 1:28:55
  probably miss someone else that's further down the hall,
• 1:28:57
  you know? Yeah, that's how it goes, right.
• 1:29:01
  Shall we move on to other news? Oh, sorry, we should just say
• 1:29:06
  one last thing that I don't think we actually stated the
• 1:29:09
  dragon. So the reign of the beasts was
• 1:29:14
  looking backwards. And Jeremy did say this.
• 1:29:16
  The reign of the beast is looking backwards again to the
• 1:29:18
  first war. The dragon was actually the
• 1:29:20
  answer to the question of what comes next, wasn't it?
• 1:29:23
  Was part of the question of what comes next.
• 1:29:26
  So the story with the five Pillars is actually where we're
• 1:29:29
  going in Mythos and part of a teaser we get at the very end of
• 1:29:35
  the show. Yeah, very cool.
• 1:29:40
  OK, let's go. Hey, this is Trevor 16 Shooter,
• 1:29:44
  and you're listening to the Euro Legions Podcast.
• 1:29:48
  Thank you, Trevor, thank you, thank people.
• 1:29:51
  Even though that you know, it's recording with them.
• 1:29:53
  I love it. So we got some other
• 1:29:58
  announcements then and bunch of stuff.
• 1:30:00
  This could be a podcast on its own, but we're going to fit them
• 1:30:05
  in here and because it's relevant and because we need to
• 1:30:09
  talk about them. So books was the first thing we
• 1:30:13
  got an update on. So this was all pre dragon, as
• 1:30:16
  Matt said before. So, you know, some people might
• 1:30:19
  have been like, come on, where's the dragon?
• 1:30:20
  You know, really listening to this.
• 1:30:22
  So now's your choice. We got one to, we've got the
• 1:30:25
  little guy from. That's true, yeah.
• 1:30:27
  Yeah. And if that's all you thought
• 1:30:29
  you were getting, maybe you were you were getting a bit.
• 1:30:32
  As they rattled through the reveals and they VG con, there
• 1:30:34
  was real 7 figures in like 2 hours and everyone's like what
• 1:30:37
  we're going to do for another 4 hours.
• 1:30:40
  We knew there was something big. Yeah, we knew.
• 1:30:42
  So umm, book updates. So the this is the first ten
• 1:30:48
  years book. So the first thing they actually
• 1:30:49
  talked about was the the lower book.
• 1:30:52
  So the rise of the dark four book and they said that actually
• 1:30:57
  that's rise of Dark 4 volume 1. So there'll be more and they
• 1:31:01
  don't actually have a date on that, but their goal is to get
• 1:31:04
  it for Allegiance Con next year. And the kind of bitter reveal we
• 1:31:09
  got from that is that we we knew before it was obviously Jeremy
• 1:31:12
  and Eric doing the the text and Nate and Trevor with the art and
• 1:31:19
  the photography. And we got the announcement that
• 1:31:22
  Dave Williams is also doing some art for it.
• 1:31:25
  So that was very cool. Obviously Dave is a big friend
• 1:31:28
  of ours in the podcast, so I was really happy for him.
• 1:31:33
  So humble dude. Yeah, I was so happy for David.
• 1:31:37
  It's just like, it's so well deserved.
• 1:31:39
  Yeah. And his art is amazing at the
• 1:31:40
  end of the day, so it's going to really.
• 1:31:41
  Enhance the book absolutely is yeah.
• 1:31:44
  And then but we did get some news on another book which is
• 1:31:48
  coming early in 2025, which is this first ten years of mythic
• 1:31:52
  legions. So this is basically a figure.
• 1:31:57
  It's a figure guide, you know. Yeah, so if you've had that, if
• 1:32:00
  you have that he man book the pixel Dan did, I guess it's
• 1:32:06
  going to be broadly similar to that.
• 1:32:08
  The figures are kind of one page with the figure pictures and all
• 1:32:12
  the details, accessories, various photos.
• 1:32:14
  So this is a beautiful coffee table book that will be
• 1:32:19
  definitely winging its way across the pond to all three of
• 1:32:24
  us. He also was revealed that The
• 1:32:27
  Silver Knight 2 is coming with the book or at the same it's
• 1:32:33
  going to be released the same time as the book, so.
• 1:32:36
  Which book? I wasn't quite sure.
• 1:32:37
  Is it that there's? This one.
• 1:32:38
  This one, it is this one. It'll go.
• 1:32:41
  It'll go up for order at the same time as the book, Yeah.
• 1:32:45
  Yeah. And so I love this.
• 1:32:48
  I mean, I am so excited about the book, as when I said before
• 1:32:53
  to, I mean, now I'd even said it to Jeremy when we talked about
• 1:32:56
  it previously. It reminds me of the Lego
• 1:32:58
  minifigure books, and they always come with Lego
• 1:33:01
  minifigures. And then they've announced that
• 1:33:04
  this is basically coming with the book.
• 1:33:07
  I mean, there'll be people who don't order it.
• 1:33:09
  I doubt that, but really. So it's like getting a figure
• 1:33:12
  with the book is is brilliant. It's awesome idea.
• 1:33:16
  I've already seen quite a few original Silver Knight builders
• 1:33:18
  on eBay all of a sudden. Oh wow, it's.
• 1:33:21
  A It's a figure you never saw, and then all of a sudden the
• 1:33:23
  Bing, Bing, Bing, they're all popping up.
• 1:33:25
  It's like. What sort of price range?
• 1:33:28
  You think you're looking around about sort of 200 poundish.
• 1:33:32
  Don't do it. People don't think that's.
• 1:33:34
  A new head sculpt on it as well, isn't it?
• 1:33:37
  So yeah, so it's a it's definitely the updated night
• 1:33:42
  body. That's the red shield soldier
• 1:33:45
  pauldrons. But the looks like is that the
• 1:33:48
  Valiant night body? Yeah, or maybe it's the Ridge
• 1:33:50
  and it's the red. Shield body, but it's like the
• 1:33:53
  valiant night lower legs and. So you know, a mismatch of of
• 1:33:58
  the newer night parts and I assume the new night arms as
• 1:34:01
  well. Of course they're not going to
• 1:34:02
  do the old night arms anymore, I'd imagine, except on older
• 1:34:06
  figures to do re release or whatever.
• 1:34:09
  So lots of cool weapons. Look at this shield.
• 1:34:11
  I just realized when I looked back at this, I didn't notice it
• 1:34:15
  on the day. Is the horseman, is that the
• 1:34:18
  Horseman logo on the shield? Yeah, it looks like it.
• 1:34:20
  And you know my, I mean, anyone that's listened to this show
• 1:34:23
  knows how much I love these Shields.
• 1:34:25
  At the pop and swap event, which I'll talk about next week, I I
• 1:34:27
  went after anyone that had any sort of Shields.
• 1:34:31
  They came home with a bunch of them.
• 1:34:32
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:34:34
  And so. £15 worth, John. No is.
• 1:34:38
  That what put you over, no? It's not the Novian lean heads
• 1:34:42
  that I got, it's just it's own, just what I got from the pop and
• 1:34:47
  swap. It's just, well, you've got a
• 1:34:50
  big bulky shield because let's face it, a spear is not going to
• 1:34:53
  do any good against the skeleton, so he needs to break
• 1:34:54
  it with a. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:34:56
  You've made this joke already. And I'm joking.
• 1:35:00
  Everyone did. Yeah, it's a funny joke.
• 1:35:02
  Sorry, it's a funny joke. Yeah, this is a brilliant
• 1:35:05
  picture again, Trevor. We talked last week about his
• 1:35:08
  photography session in Intern and this kind of as given me an
• 1:35:15
  even bigger appreciation of his work, I think, and knowing kind
• 1:35:18
  of what goes into it. You know, I guess we had a vague
• 1:35:21
  idea. Now I have a even better idea.
• 1:35:26
  So yeah, that's this is the only legion builder from the original
• 1:35:30
  wave that hasn't been re released in some way, shape or
• 1:35:34
  form. So that's the why it's coming
• 1:35:36
  with the Silver Knight two. It's nothing particular to the
• 1:35:40
  book or anything, it's just that's how they wanted to get
• 1:35:43
  this figure out into our hands. So, but that was also pretty
• 1:35:47
  sweet. You know, they're always
• 1:35:48
  thinking of what they can do that makes sense.
• 1:35:51
  And this definitely makes sense for this time.
• 1:35:56
  I do wonder if they have the pile of the books in the
• 1:35:58
  warehouse or something. They're just waiting for the
• 1:36:01
  figure to come in. Or maybe the other way around.
• 1:36:06
  Yeah, I. Think no, that's true.
• 1:36:08
  I assume this figure is maybe shipping with the necronomicous
• 1:36:11
  wave. Wouldn't that make sense if they
• 1:36:12
  get on the container with? That, yes, yeah, that would.
• 1:36:16
  Not that I know Jack shit about logistics either, so let's not
• 1:36:20
  go too deep on that. We also got more teasers, so
• 1:36:25
  there's going to be a Cosmic Legions comic book, which I
• 1:36:28
  think is music to your ears now. Oh yeah, it's a funny 1, isn't
• 1:36:33
  it? Because whilst even with Cosmic
• 1:36:37
  the law wouldn't say he's my first point of interest with it.
• 1:36:43
  I just think they're awesome figures.
• 1:36:44
  Same with Mythic, I think they're just awesome figures.
• 1:36:48
  I I love the idea of a comic and there is, does feel like they've
• 1:36:53
  tried to build a story or, you know, with Cosmic, there's much
• 1:36:57
  more of a story they're trying to build.
• 1:36:59
  And, and Jeremy sort of said it, but this will allow them to get
• 1:37:03
  the story out there quicker and then maybe release figures based
• 1:37:07
  on the story rather than trying to tell the story with the
• 1:37:09
  figures. And in that's they could then
• 1:37:13
  bring in newer fans who are fans of the story and then now and
• 1:37:19
  they can get the figures that are that fit this cool comic,
• 1:37:23
  this cool story. And I'm a I'm a comic book fan,
• 1:37:25
  as you guys know, anyway. So yeah, yeah, this is yeah,
• 1:37:29
  very cool. Yeah, and this.
• 1:37:32
  Cooler than that is who's doing it.
• 1:37:34
  Yeah. So this they gave out, they call
• 1:37:36
  this an ashcan or something if I got that term right.
• 1:37:39
  Yeah, it's written there. Yeah, Ashcan edition.
• 1:37:43
  So this is this was given out for free at Legions Con, which
• 1:37:46
  is again, you know, just something you don't expect, but
• 1:37:51
  huge little bonus there and it's the art is being done.
• 1:37:58
  So Joe Souter is the main person doing the comic, the I guess the
• 1:38:06
  art for it. So he's a really nice guy.
• 1:38:09
  We know him through the cabal and I was on legions cast an
• 1:38:15
  episode where he was on as well. Incredibly nice guy, a very just
• 1:38:21
  very nice kind of cool. You wouldn't think he's he's,
• 1:38:27
  you know, big shop, but he used to work at IDW.
• 1:38:29
  So he's a proper, proper artist and he doesn't.
• 1:38:34
  He does an awful lot of the kind of pop and swaps on the cabal.
• 1:38:38
  He opposed to really cool pop and swaps and I think he also
• 1:38:43
  sells a lot of parts the group. So I'm sure people have had lots
• 1:38:47
  of good experiences buying stuff off Joe, but we also have Dave
• 1:38:52
  Williams again, doing some art for this, Trevor Williams doing
• 1:38:58
  some stuff for this. We have Jeremy DeWitt, our
• 1:39:01
  friend from Michigan, My Best Going to Kill Me podcast and Guy
• 1:39:08
  Dorian senior. I don't know him, but he's also
• 1:39:10
  involved in it. So can't wait to see this goes.
• 1:39:17
  You see in the corner. So it says 4 horsemen
• 1:39:19
  publishing. So I wonder if they're starting
• 1:39:21
  a publishing house, maybe maybe why not?
• 1:39:26
  Why not they're? Not taken over the world.
• 1:39:28
  How long may it continue? Sideshow and Mythic Legions that
• 1:39:32
  was also announced. That was one or somebody
• 1:39:35
  immediate. Yeah, there's somebody, media
• 1:39:36
  said. This other picture sex legions,
• 1:39:39
  Yes. Yeah, maybe a plus would have
• 1:39:46
  been better. Yeah.
• 1:39:47
  So this is going to be interesting.
• 1:39:51
  I'm not sure. No.
• 1:39:53
  OK, not to be insane negative. I'm not sure I need these, but
• 1:39:57
  I'm very interested to see them and maybe they capture people
• 1:40:03
  that are into this kind of stuff.
• 1:40:05
  Probably people from within the the fandom already I guess.
• 1:40:10
  They'll look, push it a bit further.
• 1:40:11
  I mean, there's lots of people that go for the bigger statue.
• 1:40:13
  Yeah, yeah, but they're. Actually, battery collectors.
• 1:40:16
  Oh really? And it doesn't matter if I
• 1:40:18
  suppose you get. Maybe it's not necessarily about
• 1:40:22
  Yeah, they just like cool. Statues and right.
• 1:40:26
  They're just going to be too expensive for me to, yeah.
• 1:40:31
  Of course, I'm interested to see what the figure looks like, but
• 1:40:34
  I also super interested to see what sort of, you know, Dio
• 1:40:38
  piece that comes on or, you know, this kind of scene because
• 1:40:40
  often these statues come on a kind of a little kind of a Flint
• 1:40:48
  or whatever that has a kind of a Dio scene.
• 1:40:50
  Yeah, it'd be really good to see somebody else's take on the
• 1:40:53
  characters too, because obviously Eric will have final
• 1:40:56
  Yeah. I wonder how far will it will it
• 1:40:58
  be like just a, you know, a kind of a statue, maybe more detailed
• 1:41:02
  version of a very similar style or will it actually be, you
• 1:41:07
  know, sideshows take fully with, you know, with obviously last
• 1:41:10
  approval to the horseman. I will say the assumption is
• 1:41:13
  statue, but I tell you what, if they do come out with a?
• 1:41:17
  016 scale. Scale finger with cloth goods
• 1:41:20
  and things. I might, they might have me.
• 1:41:22
  I might have to find but. I'm pretty.
• 1:41:27
  Sure, it feels like statue, doesn't it?
• 1:41:30
  They what they do so well is statues and.
• 1:41:34
  So very briefly, any any guesses where where this might go with
• 1:41:39
  terms of character selection, say first one or two?
• 1:41:42
  Mine is Arith here for the first one even just with the flames
• 1:41:46
  there but. A horrible thing.
• 1:41:47
  It'll be Atlas just because, just because there's like that
• 1:41:51
  he man sort of like to it, so I think.
• 1:41:53
  Yeah, I just don't think it's, I think character has a more wide
• 1:41:56
  appeal. I think that we'll get a diorama
• 1:42:01
  piece of Attila versus goal go in combat.
• 1:42:04
  Oh, we didn't think of a versus. A good Lord, we are getting
• 1:42:08
  expensive now, Mal. Well it depends on the scales,
• 1:42:11
  you know. If they did a 110th statue maybe
• 1:42:16
  those two would would be the same.
• 1:42:18
  Maybe prices are like a 16 scale statue, I don't know they do.
• 1:42:24
  Very cool. Anyway, intrigued to see this.
• 1:42:27
  It'll be beautiful. There's a link where you can
• 1:42:31
  sign up on the sideshow website for mythic legions so you get a
• 1:42:37
  notification when when there's more info about this.
• 1:42:40
  So the Horsemen announced on their stream and I'm sure you've
• 1:42:45
  can find it somewhere, right? DND for Legions or role-playing
• 1:42:53
  game, you know, so this is one that we have had in the ether
• 1:42:58
  for a while. We've definitely mentioned it
• 1:43:00
  before and has been kind of hinted at before.
• 1:43:03
  So there is officially going to be a Four Horsemen with the
• 1:43:09
  Legions role-playing game based on the five Ed and D rules,
• 1:43:14
  which you've done a little bit of research on Math I.
• 1:43:17
  Mean, I've played 5th edition DND previously, but I was having
• 1:43:23
  a little nose around and you can actually pick up the basic rules
• 1:43:27
  for 5th edition for free online. So people want to get a bit of a
• 1:43:32
  view, you know, people who aren't aware already want to get
• 1:43:35
  a bit of an idea of what it'll be like.
• 1:43:37
  It is the basic rules. So I don't think there was.
• 1:43:41
  I think there was character creation in there.
• 1:43:42
  But, you know, look them up, find them, have a read, you get
• 1:43:47
  a bit of an idea what's coming, you know?
• 1:43:50
  Yeah, and they're going to do miniatures as well, so you can
• 1:43:54
  see a little example of them there.
• 1:43:55
  The Horsemen also posted this picture.
• 1:43:58
  You got the troll and you got a, you got a Kerzog.
• 1:44:03
  Bunch of skeletons. You got, what's her name?
• 1:44:08
  Artemis. Artemis is a yeah.
• 1:44:12
  You've got a Magnus I think, or someone that looks a bit like
• 1:44:15
  Magnus. Yeah, painted silver.
• 1:44:17
  Is a dwarf there? Isn't that the dwarf?
• 1:44:19
  There yet? Right in the front.
• 1:44:20
  I forget, sorry. He's the one.
• 1:44:23
  Looks a bit like Adriana. Yeah, it's kind of similar
• 1:44:26
  build. It's not Ravina, hopefully.
• 1:44:28
  No, no, it's the one with the. It's the.
• 1:44:32
  Is it the evil one, Lady Ariana? No, no, it's what's iconic.
• 1:44:37
  What a name is the one? Who the the what do they call
• 1:44:43
  her from? From Ladiesius.
• 1:44:45
  She's got the big staff and she's a big mast stuff.
• 1:44:48
  Oh, Faustia, Faustia, Faustia. I think it's meant.
• 1:44:52
  OK, no, she's not purple though. She's red.
• 1:44:55
  Either gold, yeah, but I suppose they.
• 1:44:58
  Paint. You have You want to paint them,
• 1:45:01
  can't you? I think.
• 1:45:01
  That's true. That's true, yeah.
• 1:45:02
  But I would expect the porous men to paint them like their.
• 1:45:04
  Figures. Well, it's silver silver Magnus,
• 1:45:10
  so it's not true. True.
• 1:45:13
  Yeah, true. And anyway, there's a there's a
• 1:45:16
  game of this on the Four Horsemen YouTube channel.
• 1:45:19
  You can go over and see it. They did a game at Legions Con
• 1:45:22
  with Pete McCarthy was there and Jeremy Gerard's son Jacob was
• 1:45:28
  there and a few other people and I think maybe D amazing.
• 1:45:34
  Was he doing it? Do you remember?
• 1:45:38
  Did that one? They did.
• 1:45:39
  No, anyway, it's it's, I haven't got round to having a proper
• 1:45:44
  look at it yet. I just had a quick scan of it.
• 1:45:47
  Obviously Cameron Smith from the studio was behind this.
• 1:45:51
  He's running the whole thing and he was DM ING that game.
• 1:45:55
  So it's supposed to be pick up and play and get right into it
• 1:45:58
  right away. So yeah, and it's going to be a
• 1:46:00
  Kickstarter in 2025. Early.
• 1:46:03
  I will be backing it with all the tears, yeah.
• 1:46:05
  Oh, yeah, yeah, All this is the type, Yeah.
• 1:46:08
  And you can get yeah, future expansion packs and stuff.
• 1:46:11
  And I actually chat. We actually chatted at, I don't
• 1:46:14
  know, I think it was lunchtime at intern to Cameron.
• 1:46:19
  I was chatting to him. I don't think you guys were
• 1:46:22
  there actually. And he was telling me that he
• 1:46:25
  went to Ireland in the summer and then he said, oh, but I
• 1:46:28
  can't tell you why because it actually was a work trip.
• 1:46:31
  And I was thinking, he said, but you will find out tomorrow.
• 1:46:35
  He said, I was at the University of Minute, which is a university
• 1:46:38
  just outside of Dublin, about 40 kilometers, maybe 30 miles
• 1:46:44
  outside of Dublin. And it has actually, the reason
• 1:46:47
  I know Minute quite well is because it has a really good
• 1:46:49
  golf scholarship program, will be the best one in Ireland,
• 1:46:52
  probably the only one. So I, I didn't go there, but I
• 1:46:55
  know that that's kind of what it's known for now these days.
• 1:46:59
  But also it seems to be known for learning how to do this type
• 1:47:03
  of stuff, which is launcher, a game and whatever.
• 1:47:08
  I don't know exactly what Cameron was doing there.
• 1:47:10
  Maybe we should get him on to have a chat because he's a very
• 1:47:14
  yeah and we should get. Yeah, it makes sense that if
• 1:47:18
  you're going to do a a week long course, but how to design games
• 1:47:21
  and that sort of stuff, you want to do it in a country where the
• 1:47:24
  weather's so bad that no one's tempted to go outside and they
• 1:47:27
  just stay in all the time focusing on the game design.
• 1:47:30
  He's so beautiful. He was a.
• 1:47:33
  Week in the summer that it was nice and he he had an extra 3
• 1:47:36
  days tacked on to the end of the trip like any sensible person
• 1:47:39
  that crosses that Atlantic and goes that far.
• 1:47:43
  And so he went up and around. Who would just go for a tiny
• 1:47:46
  little bit of time and not go and see anything around when?
• 1:47:50
  Idiot, idiot, smile do. A thing like that, so.
• 1:47:54
  I think I am incredibly excited for this.
• 1:47:58
  I can't wait for this. This might derail my painting
• 1:48:02
  for Allegiance. If this if this drops at some
• 1:48:05
  stage, it probably won't. I don't know how long it takes
• 1:48:09
  to for a game to come out, so it might be in our hands next year.
• 1:48:12
  So, you know, maybe the game itself will, but maybe the
• 1:48:16
  miniatures take a bit longer. I don't know how that.
• 1:48:18
  Yeah, well, they were talking when they somebody said are they
• 1:48:20
  going to be painted miniatures? And they said, oh, we hadn't
• 1:48:22
  thought, but maybe we could. But if they're going to do that,
• 1:48:25
  I'll obviously glaze this. Maybe it'd be unpainted first
• 1:48:27
  the. Whole should be painted.
• 1:48:29
  No, I think there's a whole like obviously the miniatures scene
• 1:48:34
  is much more developed like than say for example the Mythic
• 1:48:37
  Legions customizing scene or even action figure customizing
• 1:48:40
  scene. So there is a whole bunch of
• 1:48:43
  services there. We can get people to paint your
• 1:48:44
  minis and you know you don't. There's websites.
• 1:48:47
  Where you can just play the game.
• 1:48:48
  OK, no, and you don't even need to have them painted.
• 1:48:51
  No. You could use your figures, I
• 1:48:53
  guess, Yeah, as long as people around you didn't, you know,
• 1:49:00
  didn't mind you having a big figure on the table or whatever.
• 1:49:04
  Well, it's not a fun way of oh it is you know the people to buy
• 1:49:08
  the figures and and why not have a go at customized building your
• 1:49:12
  figures. But there is things about moving
• 1:49:14
  the stuff around the board and, you know, for a certain
• 1:49:16
  distance. So I don't know.
• 1:49:19
  Here's my Here's my ogre hiding behind this tiny miniature tree.
• 1:49:27
  But I can see everything from his ankle up.
• 1:49:31
  I'm actually hitting, you know, just have to suspend your.
• 1:49:35
  And the dragon. And I can promise you we're
• 1:49:40
  going to try and play game of this on the podcast.
• 1:49:45
  Yeah, Jesus, for sure. Yeah, you have to babysit me
• 1:49:50
  through it. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:49:51
  Play these sorts. Like every podcast, Rich, it's
• 1:49:53
  fine. Yeah, basically, yeah.
• 1:49:54
  Hold my hand. Let me drunk and hold my hand.
• 1:49:57
  This. Is the reason maybe for another
• 1:49:59
  reason for me to travel over and we can just get our, you know.
• 1:50:02
  Around the table. 6 packs of beer and sit around the table.
• 1:50:06
  Do it. Very delivered.
• 1:50:08
  Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
• 1:50:09
  And I expect Legions come, maybe not next year, but Legions can't
• 1:50:12
  say 26 to be just spontaneous games of this breaking out in
• 1:50:16
  the lobby. That'd be cool.
• 1:50:18
  That would be incredible, wouldn't it?
• 1:50:20
  You know, or when people have saw when people have.
• 1:50:22
  Or maybe just to take, yeah, table at the con for gaming or a
• 1:50:25
  couple of tables in the side room.
• 1:50:27
  And when someone said if anyone sells out their table, you know,
• 1:50:31
  just set up a game. Yeah.
• 1:50:34
  You'd want to be doing very well though, right?
• 1:50:37
  Infinite Legions was another thing.
• 1:50:39
  And so there's a big GLIAS scene in at Legions con and lots of
• 1:50:45
  people are big into it and it's very cool.
• 1:50:48
  You know, they're smaller figures, very customizable and
• 1:50:52
  you know, can pop and swap to your heart's content.
• 1:50:55
  And the first figure in this Infinite Legions line is going
• 1:51:00
  to be based on the characters from the original Glius creator,
• 1:51:04
  Matt O'Neill design, matrimonial design, so that they released
• 1:51:12
  this picture of the kind of build of the figures.
• 1:51:14
  It's just kind of space, dude. Some cosmic Legions parts
• 1:51:18
  definitely in there. So yeah.
• 1:51:21
  And also cool extra parts that were already seen here, like a
• 1:51:26
  hand cannon and obviously the helmet and the shoulder pieces
• 1:51:30
  and stuff like that. And so this, but the whole
• 1:51:33
  concept of this line, I think is that they they're going to take,
• 1:51:36
  you know, I guess it's a bit like maybe Skull Man has already
• 1:51:40
  been a similar part of this kind of concept maybe.
• 1:51:44
  Feels like it takes it further than that.
• 1:51:45
  Maybe because they're going to. Create.
• 1:51:46
  Maybe it takes it further. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:51:49
  They create together with what they've already got.
• 1:51:52
  Yeah. But I'm guessing they're going
• 1:51:54
  to focus more on the smaller toy lines sort of thing.
• 1:51:56
  You know, it's not as if all of a sudden they're going to be in
• 1:51:59
  mythic version of AGI Joe character or anything like that,
• 1:52:01
  because the bigger companies obviously be, I guess it's very.
• 1:52:03
  Precious IP, it allows them to have a thing that this is the
• 1:52:08
  thing if we collaborate with someone else to make a figure
• 1:52:12
  that uses the, you know, the parts from our system are, you
• 1:52:15
  know can use some of our own kind of IP in terms of the
• 1:52:20
  scopes and everything like that and then we can we can plug it
• 1:52:23
  straight into this type of thing rather than having to have a new
• 1:52:28
  kind of concept every time somebody comes and says, oh, can
• 1:52:31
  you like I can imagine when the skull man thing came up you know
• 1:52:34
  that was just a kind of a new thing.
• 1:52:36
  Whereas if Skull Man came today, they could say, right, let's
• 1:52:39
  plug it into infinite legions and you know, it goes into that
• 1:52:43
  bucket and it maybe then may means that they can approach
• 1:52:47
  people about it as well. I don't know, just thinking from
• 1:52:50
  the business perspective maybe. I like the idea with this and
• 1:52:59
  Legacism mythos, which we're going to talk about in a bit
• 1:53:01
  because there was talk of light work.
• 1:53:02
  Somebody asked the question Legacism mythos, will it be its
• 1:53:06
  own line or will it be in addition to the mythics line?
• 1:53:09
  And this, I suppose the same question, but nobody thought to
• 1:53:12
  ask you. I suppose it could be expanded
• 1:53:14
  further. That's why is I think it'd be
• 1:53:17
  cool if they just, I've almost just identified those characters
• 1:53:21
  and those things with a sticker on the box, say a bit like, you
• 1:53:24
  know, MacFarlane does. He's premium edition.
• 1:53:27
  That would be cool. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:53:30
  Keeps it in the lines. But this is something slightly
• 1:53:33
  special, sort of. Yeah.
• 1:53:36
  Oh, yeah, That's cool. I think it allows them to do
• 1:53:38
  that and another way, you know, you know, so it gives them a lot
• 1:53:43
  of flexibility. Yeah, yeah, we'll see.
• 1:53:45
  But. This guy looks cool, doesn't he?
• 1:53:48
  Looks better, yeah. Very cool and obviously you
• 1:53:51
  capture all the glass people as well with this.
• 1:53:54
  So that's you know and there is a lot of crossover already, but
• 1:53:58
  now there's to be even more that guy from that Matt from on our
• 1:54:02
  design. He was really cool guy, really
• 1:54:04
  nice. He gave a nice kind of
• 1:54:06
  presentation of himself and his company in his history.
• 1:54:08
  It was very interesting and it's also just brilliant for us as
• 1:54:14
  fans because we get more figures, more parts, more unique
• 1:54:17
  things that, you know, if we're like, oh, you know, oh, it's
• 1:54:20
  more of this, oh, Oh no, this is just this total thing out of
• 1:54:23
  left field that we didn't expect.
• 1:54:24
  You know, there's more potential for that now, which is even
• 1:54:27
  better. And if you're thinking of
• 1:54:29
  customs, I'm just looking at this going, wow, I'd love that
• 1:54:31
  shoulder piece now and make a cosmic regions custom with that
• 1:54:34
  and some of the press A. Good chance it will be.
• 1:54:36
  I mean, because the original character was this pale blue mix
• 1:54:41
  of pale or mix of pale and that's like dark Blues.
• 1:54:44
  So there's a good chance the picture we've got up here, which
• 1:54:46
  is the render in a colour, that colour will be as could be close
• 1:54:51
  to what we get it in as well, so.
• 1:54:52
  Yeah, it could be very similar. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:54:55
  Yep. Right.
• 1:54:57
  Let's move along. We have the map and let's come
• 1:54:59
  back to the map. 1st we talk about the legacies of mythos.
• 1:55:04
  So this was the the bone to all the throwing the bone to all the
• 1:55:08
  auto stands for all of us that want to know, though, basically
• 1:55:14
  this is kind of formalizing the All Stars in a different way to
• 1:55:17
  me. I think it's, it's kind of
• 1:55:20
  saying, right, we're not going to do any more All Stars, waves
• 1:55:23
  as such. Yeah.
• 1:55:25
  And the re releases are going to come in this Lego legacies of
• 1:55:28
  Mythos thing and they're actually going to be version
• 1:55:32
  twos basically. Yeah, the time of All Stars is
• 1:55:35
  done, isn't it? I think it.
• 1:55:36
  Seems to be. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:55:40
  Now that's not official. That's our reading between the
• 1:55:42
  lines here, I think. Is that fair to say?
• 1:55:45
  Yes. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:55:46
  Based on Ashes of AG Bendora, now this, yeah.
• 1:55:50
  So he looks cool. It's a new headscope.
• 1:55:53
  So brilliant. Yeah, yeah, I'm delighted with
• 1:55:58
  this anyway. And they said this is going to
• 1:56:00
  pop up, like it's just going to pop up at certain points and
• 1:56:04
  it's going to be like 2-3 maybe figures where it's just going to
• 1:56:08
  be OK. We're just going to release
• 1:56:09
  these three legacies of mythos figures.
• 1:56:12
  They're on the site for. Oh, man, it's got a scoop.
• 1:56:16
  Should have a man. Scoop.
• 1:56:18
  Yeah, I should have. I hope the person who told me
• 1:56:21
  this doesn't mind me to. They don't.
• 1:56:24
  Name check them then no. No, I'm not getting.
• 1:56:26
  I'm not getting. But sources are protected.
• 1:56:28
  Yeah, there was another figure already ready to show.
• 1:56:36
  Well, that was great. It wasn't.
• 1:56:37
  It wasn't ready to show. So they've done.
• 1:56:41
  They've already got an idea who will be with Oath though.
• 1:56:45
  Yeah, and that they, they said, they said at the con, didn't
• 1:56:47
  they? I think when they did they were
• 1:56:48
  feeling it that they got the first 3 waves I think lined up
• 1:56:50
  already. Well, they've got a second
• 1:56:54
  picture is because they hadn't quite got this other figure.
• 1:56:56
  OK. So this other figure is very,
• 1:56:58
  very close to being ready to go. Whereas I mean, I guess you
• 1:57:01
  could just write, you know, four or five names on paper. 10
• 1:57:06
  minutes it's. Going to be an Ersock surely.
• 1:57:08
  Oh yeah, you get an oath. So it's got to be an Ozark
• 1:57:10
  fighting him. Why not?
• 1:57:11
  Yeah, I always said a note on the Nursock 2 pack, but you
• 1:57:14
  know, I'll take them separately at the same time.
• 1:57:17
  Did they make it clear whether this is would be a pre-order?
• 1:57:20
  Whether this would be an in stock?
• 1:57:21
  I think it's a pre-order. Yeah, it's.
• 1:57:22
  Got to be pre-order. Yeah, yeah, because they can't
• 1:57:25
  engage. How much characters yeah you
• 1:57:28
  know touch them by eBay you'd say order 10,000 or however many
• 1:57:33
  of those thousands and thousands.
• 1:57:35
  But maybe when they put up for pre-order, they realize it's not
• 1:57:38
  that many so. But it's just, it's just such a
• 1:57:41
  good way to get the yeah, the axe is amazing, isn't it?
• 1:57:44
  It's just such a good way to get the characters back without the
• 1:57:47
  clunky older sculpts. And we love the older sculpts,
• 1:57:50
  but they are clunky now. There's the stuff nowadays.
• 1:57:52
  So you know, I mean, I'm presuming Thawed will be
• 1:57:55
  released at some point in this, which is great because the old
• 1:57:58
  version of him is mere compared. To the Wharf parts, please.
• 1:58:04
  Right, a couple of things quickly to get us out on here.
• 1:58:07
  I just want to talk about this. They did release the, this was
• 1:58:11
  maybe just before Eden's con, the details about where they're
• 1:58:14
  in production. So next week it's going to be
• 1:58:19
  the retailer wave, the 29th of November.
• 1:58:25
  There's going to be a bit of wallet subbing for that.
• 1:58:28
  Guys. I just looked at how much our
• 1:58:31
  pre-order cost for that and it's not 3 figures.
• 1:58:36
  You said you'd cover as far, John.
• 1:58:38
  Yeah. I've got to give you the money
• 1:58:42
  for that. And I've I've ordered the extras
• 1:58:45
  of Fisher Rice from. Oh, and yeah, we're crazy.
• 1:58:50
  We're stupid. We are or I am.
• 1:58:53
  Necronominus production is complete ish.
• 1:58:56
  What that means is that the all the direct orders are being
• 1:59:00
  shipped to the horsemen currently due to arrive at the
• 1:59:04
  end of the year early January and they get shipped out.
• 1:59:07
  So that means all pre-orders, not not just you know, American
• 1:59:11
  pre-orders, all pre-orders directed the horsemen will go
• 1:59:14
  out. So you know you're all in your
• 1:59:16
  if you just ordered 1 figure if you ordered a bunch of figures
• 1:59:19
  and and All Stars 6 is quarter 12025 S again dropping.
• 1:59:26
  You need to check what you've ordered that retailers for those
• 1:59:30
  and graveyard skeletons is also coming quarter one slash quarter
• 1:59:34
  2, so they're very quickly so. I was running through this list
• 1:59:38
  with them with my wife and I was a pains to point out that are
• 1:59:40
  prepaid for all of this. That's like there's going to be
• 1:59:43
  a run of very large boxes arriving in the 1st.
• 1:59:46
  Yeah, you have a prepaid retailer with me?
• 1:59:50
  Yeah, I didn't mention that it was a start from January onwards
• 1:59:54
  I was talking about, so that's fine.
• 1:59:56
  Yeah. So and then something very cool
• 2:00:00
  they dropped I think at the end of Chicon was about the map and
• 2:00:04
  they said that the map doesn't stop at what we know.
• 2:00:09
  It's actually bigger. And they dropped this teaser
• 2:00:12
  image. This image is from the Chicon
• 2:00:16
  stream. So Rich did send me a version
• 2:00:19
  that's really brightened up. So if you do that, if you if you
• 2:00:23
  brighten up the image, you might see even more.
• 2:00:25
  I don't know what you I mean, you can just see.
• 2:00:28
  Or the math but not really clear what it is really.
• 2:00:30
  But it just gives possibilities of more types of figure more.
• 2:00:37
  Yeah, well, it's, it's not just that there's more of the the
• 2:00:40
  world, there's lots more. It's like Mythos is actually
• 2:00:44
  quite a small continent as well. It's not even as if it's a
• 2:00:47
  massive continent that that's there.
• 2:00:49
  It's because the the greens and that you can't see on the
• 2:00:52
  picture here, but like the bottom green island as it looks
• 2:00:55
  like there actually it's just the end of a big content.
• 2:00:58
  It just keeps on going. So there's like huge amount
• 2:01:01
  what? About my detail from the game
• 2:01:03
  now, am I going to get an updated one from those games?
• 2:01:06
  Yes, in 2033. I was going to frame that now,
• 2:01:10
  but I think I'm just going to. It's not even a detail, is it?
• 2:01:14
  It's just a detail, but. This, this, I think this reveal
• 2:01:19
  was my favorite thing of the whole weekend.
• 2:01:21
  Well, as much good stuff as well, just because it opens up
• 2:01:23
  so many possibilities. And it's like, you know, you've
• 2:01:26
  got the lush to the West to the left of the screens we're
• 2:01:29
  looking at it. You've got the the lush forests,
• 2:01:32
  which is where obviously bear fear is from.
• 2:01:34
  But then you've got like a desert one down there on the
• 2:01:37
  lower right. And this, you know, just opens
• 2:01:38
  up so many possibilities. Yeah, it's all cry able as the
• 2:01:43
  branch. Then yeah, I want to see because
• 2:01:45
  I'm greedy. I already see when you see the
• 2:01:46
  whole map, so it's like, is this?
• 2:01:49
  Is this actually? We just had this part of the
• 2:01:51
  world and now you're wanting more, even though we've got
• 2:01:54
  more. I'm greedy, what can I say?
• 2:01:56
  Yeah, so, you know, we've got snake men.
• 2:01:58
  I want more. I want lizard.
• 2:02:00
  Yeah, which continent are the lizard men on?
• 2:02:02
  Tell me now. So what's your most what's your
• 2:02:07
  most hope for from this like first first type of characters
• 2:02:10
  that come new lizard men? No, I think first.
• 2:02:16
  Oh, there's Lizard Island. There we go.
• 2:02:18
  Yeah. Lizard.
• 2:02:19
  Yeah, basically I'm I'm going for the Baron looking one on the
• 2:02:21
  bottom right. That's Lizard.
• 2:02:22
  That's Lizard land in my head. No, I think Jeremy, just Lizard.
• 2:02:27
  That'd be amazing, wouldn't it? With with three deads or
• 2:02:31
  something. Yeah, Lizard.
• 2:02:36
  Yeah, Jeremy hinted. Didn't the on off world that it
• 2:02:38
  was. It's time to set sail.
• 2:02:41
  Actually is actually shooting the shelf.
• 2:02:45
  Oh, was it? I thought it was awful.
• 2:02:46
  Yeah, no, no, it was a shooting the chef, Jesse just couldn't
• 2:02:49
  make it, but it was shooting the chef and they, yeah, he said
• 2:02:53
  let's set sail for Allegiance Con 2025.
• 2:02:56
  So we're going to be some sort of creatures, pirates, maybe
• 2:03:00
  male. I think pirates would be a big
• 2:03:02
  priority for you, Mel. That'd be very cool.
• 2:03:04
  That'd be very cool. Yeah.
• 2:03:06
  What would be your number one? Or is that too hard a question?
• 2:03:09
  Especially it's we're, yeah, we're, it's too, too far out to
• 2:03:14
  even begin to imagine what might be at this point for me, because
• 2:03:18
  they didn't even specify new creatures, new races, new, you
• 2:03:22
  know. Yeah.
• 2:03:24
  Shark men, squid men. It's like, yeah, that's what we
• 2:03:28
  need. See.
• 2:03:29
  Basically, yeah. Yeah, it would be cool.
• 2:03:32
  Yeah, I think that's that's where I am with it.
• 2:03:34
  Yeah. I hope we get we're going to get
• 2:03:36
  sea creatures, so see what they can do with them.
• 2:03:39
  Yeah, I'm sure it'll be awesome, right.
• 2:03:44
