0:02
My wallet is sobbing. I can hear it.
0:04
I can hear it in the hall now. It is breaking down crying.
0:08
It turns out that Attila the arrogant soul.
0:11
And so he's got a fake hammer. Oh.
0:13
A fake? Yeah.
0:14
Whoa. As I say, Dick.
0:18
Welcome to episode 119 of the Uridians Podcast, and this week
0:23
we're going to talk a little bit about the Infinite Legions
0:27
reveal that happened last week. And then we've got some random
0:31
stuff to close us out to, some Patreon questions and maybe some
0:35
other stuff if the boys have done any prep.
0:38
So let's see. That'll be a no then, everybody.
0:44
Thank you Patreon questions then.
0:46
How are you rich? I'm good thank you John.
0:49
I've stopped sweating finally. Could anyone that watches this
0:53
on the on the tube they'll be able to see me looking quite red
0:56
in the face. Just that'll be a lot of very
0:58
surprisingly heavy garden plants from my back garden through the
1:02
house onto my drives. My father-in-law collect them,
1:05
so boot to him, quite frankly. Glad we don't have smell of
1:08
vision in here so. Oh, absolutely.
1:10
Yeah, you would want it. There's no surprise neither my
1:13
family or the cats are anywhere near me at the moment, you know?
1:17
Good. Well that's going to be a clean
1:18
recording then. I love it.
1:22
And you Mal has things. Yeah, I'm all right.
1:25
I'm all right, you know, doing what I've got to do, living the
1:28
dream. Yeah, without hint the sarcasm.
1:38
We're into summer now, you know, it's really just very, very
1:42
summer holidays coming up for. People, yeah, I've got, I've got
1:46
a got a week off in a bow in the next month so I've got a a while
1:53
to wait, but yeah, yeah. But that's great thing about
1:58
summer is people go on holidays. It could be just people you
2:00
don't like working with and when they go on holidays, that's like
2:03
a little holiday for you as well, yeah.
2:04
That's true, That's true. Get quieter.
2:06
Very. True, you know, or that annoying
2:10
boss or whatever. I drop a load of names here, but
2:12
as I mentioned the podcast so much one of them might actually
2:14
watch it just. As I think we can, I think we're
2:20
safe with that. You know everyone works with at
2:21
least one person that you know they might get on with.
2:25
It's not just one. Yeah, reaching in an office of
2:31
three people and he's like, it's not just one.
2:38
Oh, that's terrible. So and you got some GI Joe
2:42
pre-orders tonight. So the boys were ordering away.
2:46
Yeah, I haven't actually ordered yet, but I will order the AWE
2:49
Stryker and crankcase that goes with him because I had that as a
2:52
kid. So that's an incident even
2:53
though it's a a vehicle. I'm trying not to get too many
2:55
vehicles, but that's just an instant buy.
2:57
I had to him as a kid that he he crankcase was on wearing a
3:00
cardigan. Wasn't even ginger.
3:02
Ginger hair and ginger. But yeah, he doesn't look like
3:04
he's wearing a cardigan in this one.
3:06
It's a bit disappointing. That'd be the retro of a card
3:10
version of him later. And they probably will.
3:12
I might pick that up just for the novelty of them wearing a
3:14
card. But I've gone with them, the
3:17
Sarge and Mercer 2 pack, because again, I've sort of stuck to,
3:21
which I know to some people is blasphemy, The movie figures
3:25
because that was a big part of my youth and what got me into GI
3:28
Joe. And because I don't want to go
3:30
all in. That's what I'm collecting
3:32
around. And yeah, I love the Renegades
3:36
in that. They're so cool.
3:38
So yeah. Have you seen the very strong
3:41
hint smell that the the hazelab at this time is going to be the
3:45
whatever the big thing the dread knocks had was?
3:49
Oh right, I thought it was that snow cat they were hinting at
3:53
quite a lot. I'm hoping you've heard better
3:56
in further me then because I will buy this snow cat.
3:59
Yeah, yeah, I think he'll be that because they were saying
4:01
about chill and all this sort of thing.
4:03
I mean, I, I, I, they, they have also said in the past that the
4:07
Thunder machine wasn't big enough to be a habla, A haz lab.
4:12
They would just do that. They well made it sound like
4:15
they'll just do that as a vehicle and say no.
4:17
Well, hopefully you're right then, because I'd yeah, that was
4:19
my my favorite vehicle as a kid. So we'll have to get that and
4:22
find room for him. And you'll get loads of extras,
4:25
of course, with the main house lab.
4:26
Yeah, that would be. That's always, they're always
4:29
for me with so far with the GI Joe has labs, it's all the extra
4:32
stuff that's been the more fun stuff, yeah.
4:36
Like take extra figures and stuff or.
4:39
Yeah, yeah. I mean, I'm picked any of them
4:40
up because again, I'm not in all, I'm not, you know, I'm
4:43
trying not to buy it, but most of it so.
4:46
They're big and been in your house.
4:49
It's not the biggest in terms of real estate for display and
4:54
stuff, so you have to be careful.
4:56
Have you got a dragon coming? Yeah, well, I've had the e-mail
4:59
today saying that. What's it called again?
5:08
Keep talking guys, because this is the the cobra snake is due to
5:13
be dispatched at the end of this week and that you know the.
5:17
The big old robot, Yeah. Yeah, this month's turning into
5:20
an expensive ones, I can tell you.
5:22
Yeah. I could do that, that moment, to
5:24
be honest, but it's too cool. Yeah, I did pre-order that.
5:27
Is that a? Is that a vehicle or?
5:29
Yeah, big robot robot Mecca suit type sort of thing isn't.
5:32
It yeah, yeah, yeah. So that'll go on top of my
5:35
shelves next to Sapentos Chariot.
5:37
So maybe have it open with a figure sat in it.
5:39
I think so, yeah. That's a good idea.
5:42
Awesome Well, uh, here's a couple of figures that, uh, we
5:46
might end up adding to the shelves.
5:48
We'd have to see. So they did the live stream last
5:53
Friday and they announced the first figures in the Infinite
5:59
Legions toy line. So if you're not too familiar
6:02
with what the Infinite Legions is, it's a concept where the
6:05
Four Horsemen is going to be using the Legions build system.
6:10
So basically parts from regions and the way they're built, and
6:14
maybe then sculpting a few additional parts and working
6:17
with other creators. In this case it was O'Neill Matt
6:22
from O'Neill design for these two glios, originally Glios
6:27
figures, and they're going to be working closely with them to
6:31
develop the figures into that system.
6:33
So what we know in this case is more the Cosmic Legions book.
6:39
So you know, 6-7 inch scale figures.
6:43
And yeah, it's pretty cool. It's not.
6:46
So it's not exactly tributes. I know people that I know that
6:49
aren't deep in the Legions like us.
6:51
They were thinking it was just tributes to these type of
6:56
figures and you know that the horsemen either got, you know,
6:59
permission or you know, we're doing an acknowledgement of of
7:03
these people, but it's actually that they're working with them.
7:07
So it's a kind of a joint project.
7:11
So the first one up here is fading and this was heavily
7:17
teased previously and we saw kind of a render of them at
7:21
Legions Con and then we saw kind of various close-ups during the
7:25
week until we got the reveal. So here he is, Big Blue robot
7:31
guy, space suit guy with an arm cannon, bunch of different heads
7:37
and looks like the lower legs from the new cosmic space suits.
7:41
Their mouth. That's right.
7:44
Yeah. So what do we think in here?
7:46
Oh, the arms as well. Oh, that's nice.
7:49
I think I think he looks fantastic.
7:51
As I said previously, I don't really have an attachment to
7:56
Glios and and this like I know now design and what they do, but
8:03
I think this is awesome just as a cool cosmic legions figure,
8:09
he's going to totally go on the cosmic shelf.
8:12
I love the use of the parts and and you know, it was said in the
8:17
reveal show. It was it it.
8:21
Yeah. Yeah.
8:22
OK, I shouldn't really say this, I guess, but it was from Matt
8:25
who, you know, who created glass orally this figure fading.
8:31
And he said it's nuts how perfect the existing parts for
8:38
the legs and their arms were. And it yeah, it just looks very
8:43
cool, doesn't it? Well, my opinion.
8:47
Yeah, I do think he was the one that started the glass build
8:51
system as well. So yeah.
8:55
So I think he's the main man who I think you need to, if you're
9:01
making glass figures, you need to collaborate with him
9:03
initially to kind of get permission for for using the
9:06
system. So yeah, it has a kind of, it's
9:12
hard to see in the photos here, but it does have kind of a
9:16
shimmery paint job. So not just a flat blue, it's
9:20
actually kind of shimmery metallic.
9:22
So there was some close-ups that people had had it at a con last
9:28
weekend. So people were taking kind of
9:31
close-ups to try and show the shiny paint job.
9:35
So I'm sure it'll look really cool.
9:38
And then what about you, Rich? Yeah, I really like this.
9:44
The out of scale port, as Mal said, you know, the out of scale
9:46
proportions were really well with a bigger leg, bigger shins
9:49
and feet and the the smaller thighs and that sort of thing.
9:52
And the arm cannon. I mean the arm cannon by itself
9:54
I think would have sold it for me.
9:55
That's that's really great effect.
9:57
I mean my one gripe would be the colour.
9:59
I don't like the colour, but then it's meant to be that
10:01
colour because it's that character.
10:03
So I totally get that. And as somebody that likes to
10:06
build, you know, small groups of characters wearing similar armor
10:10
in cosmics, then this is exactly the sort of book that works well
10:14
for that. Yeah, it's a great base, isn't
10:16
it? And I love the way they gave you
10:17
the wrist piece here you can see it done and a bunch of
10:20
traditional pieces so you can make a regular 2 handed figure
10:25
if you want out of them. So always just thinking of
10:30
thinking of the the collector there, what they might want to
10:33
do if they want to army build, of course, it's a very useful
10:37
piece to have. So yeah, that's a that's a nice
10:40
little picture of him there. And he's kind of classic arm
10:45
cannon pose custom ideas here. We can already kind of.
10:50
You could do various different characters just with that arm
10:54
cannon that kind of comes in useful, kind of a cosmic horde
10:59
act maybe. That, you know, maybe you've
11:03
just worked out what one of the next most 2 tributes will be.
11:10
Oh, we've had. Hordak So we have had Oh yeah,
11:12
Mythic, yeah. Well, you could buy that arm
11:16
cannon and stick it on, yeah. Stick it on Dragool.
11:19
Yeah, Dragool, Yeah. Yeah, that would be super cool.
11:24
Yeah. So also different helmets here.
11:26
So we see this is the classic one that the class figure is
11:31
based off. Really.
11:32
This is another one. Yeah, that's really cool.
11:35
Kind of more of a more of a kind of a space pilot, maybe had my
11:41
helmet or something. I don't know.
11:43
I think that would also work like like a robot sort of head
11:46
for me as well. Yes, yeah.
11:49
Yeah, this could be your first little in in on robots in with
11:54
in Cosmic Rich. I've been campaigning them from
11:57
for them for quite some time, so yeah.
12:00
I did. I must admit.
12:01
I saw this head and that collar piece and I was like, I'm
12:04
tempted to swap that out onto the board Trooper tribute if you
12:11
could. Yeah.
12:13
Oh yeah. But that could work well, Ma,
12:18
yeah. I've got some cool new parts
12:20
that that belt was reversible, so reversal rotatable.
12:25
So you could have it facing that way or the other way.
12:28
It's the same belt on him and the next figure will say.
12:32
Next figure, yeah. Though they were saying when
12:34
they that there's the chest plate is just a fixable cover so
12:38
you can. Have them.
12:39
Yeah, it's an over. More of the original stuff
12:40
underneath that overload. Thank you.
12:42
Yeah, overlay to the Tusk torso, which I think.
12:46
And it looks we know, sorry, do we know those shoulder pauldrons
12:50
work or they they just plug into the back?
12:53
I think so. I don't know what does it look?
12:55
Have we got a picture of it from behind?
12:57
I mean there's a bit of a gap isn't there between the arm
12:59
where you normally have a program, but maybe the the
13:01
extension piece is just a bit longer.
13:04
I would have thought it would be the same mechanic, unless
13:06
there's perhaps that chest overlays got its own plugs at
13:12
the back maybe that are further out.
13:16
Maybe e-mail? Yeah, that could.
13:18
Because they might be covering the original plugs.
13:22
Yeah. Excuse me, I.
13:25
Don't see any picture even on the website where there
13:28
soliciting him. I don't see any pictures from
13:30
the back so. They've not quite dialled that
13:33
in yet. Yeah, that's exactly, that's a,
13:37
that's a good, that's a good way to just ignore it for the moment
13:44
because yeah, it could change with the tooling in the factory,
13:46
so. They might say little.
13:48
Very end of the pre-order and go.
13:49
And now. If you're still not convinced,
13:51
here's the Ashcot. He's got a skull as well.
14:00
Jeremy of course showed the skull on a tuberculae as well
14:03
and Instagram mythic customs so just sold another one to Brett
14:11
I. Think it's called really cool.
14:15
I'm not sure. I mean for those that know the
14:18
character, I think it works great with this.
14:20
I, I, you know, when I get this, I'm the skull will go on a
14:24
different character, I have to admit.
14:27
Yeah, and this little hologram piece is the one of the cosmic
14:33
ones, isn't it? It's that it's the kind of alien
14:37
head that comes up on one of the no science officer, I think
14:41
science. Officer is it couldn't.
14:44
Yes, it is Science Officer One. Yeah, there's the pilot and
14:46
then, well, isn't it that? And I thought that was
14:48
absolutely fascinating that it turned out that the plug in the
14:52
arm is basically the same plug whatever size as the Glios head.
14:59
So I thought that. Was really, really fascinating.
15:02
Just around 4 millimetres, apparently.
15:04
Yeah. See, I was listening to Jeremy
15:07
show. The memory for the details like
15:10
that like. My my question but Trevor
15:13
though, does that blast effect come with?
15:18
It I can hear from from Trevor, absolutely fantastic.
15:23
He's amazing, he's incredible. Yeah, I don't know if I'm sure
15:28
he was probably talking more about it on the Off World
15:33
podcast that they did Curtis than the guys did after the
15:36
show. But that was like 5 hours long.
15:38
So I just wasn't able to to get through it all.
15:42
So yeah. And so I don't know whether
15:46
that's done with a bit of like a an LED or whether it's just
15:50
added in in Photoshop, but either way, cool.
15:55
Yeah, it's very cool yeah. And yes, so Trevor does amazing
16:02
work. Fan host the second one this.
16:08
So I'm going to claim that some little good of kudos here.
16:12
I did say that they might do a different color way to do a
16:15
different character. So I'm going to say claim a win
16:18
on that one and it is a different character, so not just
16:23
a different color way of the fading.
16:27
So here he is, purple and black was a winner.
16:34
A winner winner. I think he's just a dark purple,
16:39
isn't it? Or maybe it's a darker purple.
16:41
Yeah. Oh, you're.
16:42
You know, nearly black, but very dark purple.
16:46
Yeah, it is. Yeah.
16:47
I'm just looking here on the website.
16:49
Yeah, it's probably a very dark purplish blue.
16:54
Works really well anyway. Yeah.
16:55
And, eh, so cool. This is my favorite of the two,
16:58
I have to say this. This definitely, eh, it's very
17:02
multiples coming. It's the if there's multiples
17:04
coming, it's this guy. Yeah.
17:06
I'll get multiples of both, but yeah, this guy is awesome.
17:08
Yeah, yeah, they know. I absolutely love this scholar
17:11
scheme. You know, I said before,
17:13
purple's my favorite colour and the combos here just worked
17:16
brilliantly. Why aren't you on the Purple
17:18
Gang Gang show, huh? Invited me.
17:24
We have an open invitation, it's just that's on in the middle of
17:26
the night every. Sunday, that's going to say it'd
17:28
be 2:00 AM. That's when you're eating your
17:31
Chinese Segway, isn't. It after you've got back in for
17:35
a few drinks. No, that was about 8:00 at
17:38
night. Thank you very much.
17:39
Yeah, we're at the age now We're yeah, we could still sit down in
17:44
the Chinese on our way home. It's not just take away only at
17:48
that stage. Yeah, for those out the loop, I
17:51
went to watch a live international cricket game at
17:53
the weekend, drank far too much in the space of four hours, got
17:57
a massive Chinese take away on the way home because I was
17:59
drunk, ate it and probably fell asleep.
18:02
And my family delightfully started putting cats always on
18:04
my head and taking pictures of me because that's fast asleep.
18:07
So bless them for that. Yeah, just an object of fun in
18:11
your old age. Basically, yeah, it's good that
18:15
you are. Anyway, back to fanos, yes?
18:19
So. So it's only today I realized
18:23
that head on the the dark purple head in front of him is the
18:30
skull, just in purple. Oh wow, it is.
18:34
I didn't. Realize that today.
18:36
Yeah, I don't know if there's a, there's a picture with it on.
18:39
There you go. That that really does the
18:44
colour. Extremely cool.
18:46
Yeah, well, there's another one to the order.
18:51
Yeah, such a 72 now. There we go.
18:55
As we say as well, that's the same belt.
18:57
It's just reversed. Brilliant.
19:00
Yeah. That's cool.
19:02
Yeah. Yeah, I love that.
19:04
Great for customs as well, and great for future usability.
19:08
My favorite head is the one we just had on that previous
19:11
picture, though, the pink brain spirit.
19:13
Yeah, there's something about it.
19:14
And the fact that it comes with a neck as well.
19:16
How? Long do you think it'll be
19:19
before we get a Zoe Berg homage using that?
19:22
Yeah, I hadn't thought about it, but yet.
19:25
Or crank somebody will cut open somebody.
19:28
Yeah, yeah. Crying is definitely vibes
19:31
there. I think the color scheme lens
19:33
stuff to that. And yeah, the first real alien
19:38
looking head that we've had in that cosmics build.
19:42
That build, yeah, Oh, I mean the the engineer and the are sorry,
19:46
the the the legion builders from cosmic wave one did have alien
19:50
type heads as well. It's thing corrected.
19:55
So we got the, we got a. See that helmet in that colour
19:59
too? Yeah.
20:00
Oh, I'm going to lease off a dozen and.
20:03
We got the translucent kind of hologram piece here again.
20:07
This is a new one, yeah. It is, yeah.
20:12
They were saying on the the reveal that it's a cosmic head
20:15
basically that they've not found how to use yet, so they just
20:20
shrink it down and used it as a translucent 1 and the design
20:23
looks really good. Yeah, it does indeed.
20:26
Yeah, really like it. And then in terms of stuff, so
20:32
the arm cannon again, so these don't come with weapons per SE.
20:35
It's the arm cannon. That's what we're getting.
20:39
Nice little touch with the neck peg here that you can use with
20:41
the helmets. And they obviously have a
20:43
different neck, neck peg that that goes with the with the more
20:47
organic head here. And I think it's the same on the
20:51
previous one as it I know we don't get a different neck pack
20:56
with him. OK, so it's just this guy.
20:59
Cool. And there's the beautiful shot
21:08
from Trevor as well. He's so good, Trevor.
21:11
Yeah, yeah, Even got the, I don't know, the kind of light is
21:17
kind of like it's bouncing off him onto the cliffs almost.
21:22
Yeah. Yeah, really, really nice and
21:28
there's the two of them together.
21:29
So they look they look appropriately cool together.
21:36
You got the fan us there with the the arms, so not with the
21:42
cannon. So that just kind of shows you
21:44
what that looks like. And yeah, those lower arms and
21:49
lower legs are super cool. Definitely want to be doing some
21:53
cosmic customs with those. If we can get some shorter upper
21:59
legs to go with them, even cooler.
22:07
I really like the giant feet as well.
22:08
They just, they just look ridiculous, but really good at
22:11
the same time. Never fallen over, are they?
22:14
Oh, never. Ever until we had one warm day
22:19
in the UK and then it'll be. Once a year, it'll be.
22:24
One day. While you're putting plants out
22:28
in the front garden. Yeah.
22:32
And ma we got some pins. Yeah, we got some pins, very
22:36
cool pins as well. So we got 3 pins, 1 based on the
22:40
fading head, the regular blue color and one on the fanost
22:46
brain slash alien head. And then we also got the skull
22:52
design and this is a a kind of a mash up of the Four Horsemen
22:57
logo and those heads, so. I think they were calling that
23:01
skull head the was evil fading. I think they kept referring to
23:04
it as. OK, how is that the evil fading?
23:06
Yeah. Yeah.
23:08
Did you boys both get a pin set? Yeah, I haven't ordered yet, but
23:12
I will be, yeah. I did I did my kind of I heard
23:19
that they're coming to retail as well.
23:20
So I might get extras at retail. So I got the the two pack all in
23:26
which we'll talk about. Let's let's have a look at at
23:32
the what they're going for on the website.
23:36
So that would be that would be a good idea, wouldn't?
23:41
It. Have a look at the pre-orders
23:44
that are up there now. So these are we, we speculated
23:47
the prices might be a little bit higher than they are.
23:51
So that was pretty cool. The screen hasn't changed for
23:56
me, John. I'm not sure if it was meant to.
23:57
Change. No, no, it's OK, it's OK, it's
23:59
on the way. It's remove streamers getting a
24:07
bit stupid. So there you go.
24:10
We got the two pack which so each figure is 45 each which I
24:16
think is pretty good. It's just a little bit over a
24:18
standard priced Legion. Good amount of stuff in it as
24:21
well. Good amount of stuff and the
24:22
fact that this is a kind of a special collaboration project.
24:27
So you know, I don't know if there's another collaborating,
24:30
but maybe there there is sharing some of the profits as well.
24:34
I don't know how that works for for the other creator.
24:36
So and you got the two pack here as a special 85 S $5 off what
24:45
you would if you were ordering the two separate.
24:47
So just a nice little incentive there.
24:51
And then the pins are tenner each and you can get the all
24:53
three of them for $25.00. So, so that's what I did.
25:00
I got the two pack and the pin set and shipped it and shipping
25:07
and I think it came to the shipping was really good.
25:12
Actually, the shipping was $26. So.
25:19
Yeah, 2675. That's what it was to the UK as
25:21
well. Yeah, yeah.
25:22
So one $136.75 for the all in plus the the pins shipped here.
25:29
So yeah, can't say that's too bad.
25:32
I did similar so I went for the 2 pack and then an extra fan
25:35
lost and again same ship in the G John's are going to 15675
25:39
which is pretty good. Yeah, that's pretty cool.
25:46
Yeah. So there's a few more pictures
25:50
here, but and you get the close and if you see the close up
25:55
there, you can see it is a little bit shimmery there.
26:00
Yeah. And then his purple there, you
26:03
can see it. Yeah, it's kind of the dark.
26:06
It's definitely into purple in that darker, darker colour.
26:11
Yeah, I feel like the pictures from some people shared some
26:14
pictures from 5 Points festival didn't they had so it was a more
26:18
natural light and I'm sure it was looking purplish there as
26:21
well. If Nathaniel Armstrong doesn't
26:24
do another one of his Transformers tributes using
26:28
Thanos as Shockwave doesn't, something wrong in the world.
26:32
That build is pretty much there anyway, just get a different
26:35
head. That's true.
26:37
That's true. That's true.
26:39
Yeah. So they're set for mid 2026
26:42
release. So, you know, that is what it
26:46
is. Let's see if it turns out that
26:48
way. But that's the that's the aim.
26:52
I think we're just a small wave like this.
26:54
Two figures. It's a kind of thing that they
26:57
can slot in. There are there is yeah, there
27:01
is some new tooling, but it's not not super mount is not
27:05
there's not really much engineering to the new tooling.
27:08
So it's like heads and OK, that overlay piece and the arm
27:11
cannon, but it's not like joints that move too much.
27:15
So that should be pretty easy for them to to debug if there's
27:20
any issues. And obviously the paint is is a
27:22
thing that they want to get right on these.
27:25
So yeah, I'm pretty excited for that.
27:28
So that's the first of them and we'll see what comes of it.
27:34
So, well, I'm just. Going to go on and talk about
27:38
the other cool thing that they talk that they.
27:42
Oh yeah, you do that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:43
Right up your your street. They what's the word released
27:47
and not released to talk to release was they So they took
27:53
that design and and it sounds like Bill Mancuso had a large
28:02
part in in this took that design and scaled it down back down to
28:08
the three inch. It's a bit taller by the looks
28:10
of things, unless that was a pre.
28:12
Yeah, I think they said 4 inch. Yeah.
28:14
Three and three so a glios version of of that design that
28:20
they've done for for Faden and and Thanos.
28:24
Thanos is basically the same design there, isn't he really.
28:27
So that'd be really cool. I'd actually really like to get
28:31
hold of that and I might I might have to try and get myself a
28:34
version of Faden and Thanos to go along in the display, you
28:40
know, dotted about so people can see the reference.
28:44
And yeah, that'd be cool though. And they said that that'd be
28:49
available from I think a nail design later in the year and
28:55
then they'll probably have some at Legions Con as well.
28:59
Might have to try and get that. Yeah, exactly.
29:03
Yeah. So they they shared some work in
29:06
progress shots on the stream, the Four Horsemen YouTube
29:12
channel if you want to see that stream for more details.
29:15
But they yeah, they shared some in progress shots.
29:18
So that glass figure is going to be bigger than a standard glass
29:22
figure, I think. Yeah.
29:25
And they had to do, I think they had to do a good bit of work to
29:30
translate. So it's interesting the process,
29:34
but we will definitely have bail on again at some stage.
29:37
So we'll talk to him about that. Maybe.
29:40
He's always very interesting, that kind of stuff.
29:43
There's always more to it than you think.
29:45
Yeah, it is, isn't it, Rich? Yeah, And definitely, I think, I
29:50
think Mal will try and as he said, he'll try and secure it
29:55
maybe before Leighton's gone and and you know, get somebody to
29:58
have to see. Yeah.
30:00
Sweet, but maybe our. Friends over there guys are you
30:05
guys. I think you and I, Rich, would
30:07
be more casual about it. Nice to have if we can get it.
30:09
And if we see it, it's gone, we pick it up.
30:11
But. Tweaks my collector, yeah.
30:15
I can also live without it for certain.
30:19
You know, if it happens, it happens, right?
30:24
So what else did we want to do here?
30:26
Then we we go straight to the questions or did you guys
30:30
haven't noticed you wanted to talk about first?
30:32
Next I can mention Britney flee that my next group of Instagram
30:36
reveals is coming finally and showing a load of my Lithias
30:41
brood. So I showed a few of them like 3
30:45
or 4 years ago, about half a dozen of them.
30:47
So I'll be re showing those. And then I sent you guys a
30:50
picture obviously of one of the new ones already.
30:52
So I'm furiously writing BIOS and taking pictures.
30:55
So starting probably this evening after we've done this,
30:59
the idea is daily just go through my Lithias brood and all
31:03
the custom figures in that, which is very exciting.
31:06
That is exciting. Yeah, very cool.
31:10
And Mal. I, I, I did, I am doing a bit of
31:18
customizing. I seem to be going through a bit
31:20
of a period of it. I showed off the snowman, the
31:24
evil snowman that had done it that are so good.
31:26
The cabal at the weekend. Wow.
31:29
There's a story behind it, but I'll tell you guys, I'm not
31:31
going to reveal it in public after the fact.
31:35
I mean, I love as I say, I had the idea of using the bones as a
31:40
wooden limbs, and there's another one come in where I'll
31:42
use the bones as wooden limbs. And then yeah.
31:46
And then another one's a cosmic custom.
31:48
I think it's going to be fun. But yeah, I just seem to be
31:51
having a bit of a customizing renaissance just just at the
31:56
moment, a few ideas are all coming.
31:58
Yeah, I've got all the bits I need and I just need to take the
32:01
time to prep and paint them. So yeah.
32:07
Cool. Yeah, I did a bit of customizing
32:09
as well. I got this guy backwards, of
32:12
course. Make yourself big, yeah?
32:15
Yeah, she's that in the end. Oh my God, Rich.
32:22
Sorry I'm. Not even drinking tonight, I'm
32:25
only on water. That's that's not new, is it?
32:30
There we go. Yeah.
32:33
So this is I think we on designed this head and we got a
32:37
lot of Calvo custom creations I think Gianluca Carrillo.
32:44
Yeah, Gian's been doing all this stuff with Gianluca.
32:47
Yeah, so been a while since I did a human head, but that was
32:53
fun. Yeah, so.
32:55
And they've also prepared here also.
33:01
I'm in the middle of this guy. You do.
33:04
Good drawing. These guys, so this is another
33:09
one from I think MO away through my cowboy, so giving them the
33:14
red. Oh, to match the the Armory
33:18
Knight. Yeah, I think it'll.
33:20
Oh, nice. Yeah, Yeah.
33:21
It's close to it now, but I'll probably have to tweak it a
33:27
small bit to be exact, but. An evil build or a heroic Armory
33:32
night build? I don't know, I I think it's
33:35
going to be for sale at Allegiance Console.
33:37
Maybe you choose yourself, but I want to.
33:40
I think I'll post a picture for him on the on the night at some
33:46
point just to see the match. I do have that armor that goes
33:51
with him as well though but that doesn't go over a night body so
33:54
and I don't want to make. Oh, like there's some shoulder
33:58
sort of piece. Yeah, it kind of goes.
34:00
Yeah, it kind of goes over a bare torso.
34:03
Yeah. And then I'd have to do the the
34:07
whole body and everything make full custom.
34:09
So I'm not going to do that, but I'll probably paint in the same
34:12
red. And then if someone buys the
34:14
head, they can also take that and make their own custom if
34:16
they'd like. Yeah, no, I've got a painted
34:20
head and shoulder thing I got from from Cory I have plans for,
34:26
which involves a better torso. Cool.
34:30
They're ridiculous plans, but exciting.
34:34
Excellent. Also, one of the thing we
34:36
launched on Patreon some special episodes.
34:40
So episode 1 of Rich's Randoms is out now.
34:44
So this is Rich with his spreadsheet and a bunch of
34:48
random questions you have. Tell us Rich, you have 3 three
34:51
different sections on the spreadsheet.
34:52
I have 3 sections, yeah. So there's a section about all
34:57
sorts of four Horsemen related stuff made need legions
34:59
obviously. We then have an entire section
35:02
on other toys and then we just have a section on life in
35:06
general and there's 18 questions on the screen, all blanked out
35:11
the guest pic a number. I reveal the question, ask them
35:15
that question, they give us an answer.
35:17
It's umm, we've done 2 on with John A really good fun.
35:20
Yeah, so episode 1 is already out on their Patreon with Chris
35:23
James. That was a great show with Chris
35:25
and episode 2 is with Matt Drake toiletics and he will be out
35:32
probably next week and be dropped in week by week as we go
35:35
along can. We just get back to that picture
35:37
again. Please, Joe.
35:38
Yeah, sure. Rich looks like the guy you
35:41
like. You try to avert your gaze from
35:44
his on the bus, doesn't he? In case you start talking.
35:49
Yeah, I feel like. That's probably what this shows
35:51
like. Is he, I purposely chose that
35:57
picture of him and I and I also didn't, you know, I didn't kind
36:01
of blend into the background or you know, I made it quite left
36:04
to quite angular. And in the intro, if you watch
36:07
the video version, he'd actually kind of moves around the screen
36:11
randomly. I thought I thought that was a
36:15
nice little nod to the whole show.
36:17
I showed that intro to to my team and work and there was both
36:22
befuddlement and and laughter and a couple of people going.
36:26
That's really cool. So it's a broad spectrum of
36:28
results. Yeah, exactly.
36:30
If you have one person saying it's cool, then that's a victory
36:32
for people involved. That's like.
36:35
That's everyone involved has one there then yeah, OK.
36:41
And it's great fun. And we've got the next three
36:43
guests lined up as well. So yeah, all good.
36:48
And to the other patrons that have said yes, to be honest, you
36:52
Rich will get to you. But Rich's randoms is also a
36:57
little bit random in the order of people coming on it.
37:01
Because yeah, I literally have got the list of people on my
37:04
spreadsheet and I just sort of go click, OK, that person might
37:08
just try. Yeah, because at the start of
37:11
the first episode, you know, I'm there helping with the recording
37:15
and stuff. And Rich said so you're going to
37:17
intro. I said no Rich, I'm getting off
37:18
the screen now. You do it.
37:19
It's your thing. So there's there's no John,
37:23
there's no mouth. It's just Rich plus guest.
37:26
So yeah. Well, victim was like as Mal
37:29
called in his questions. It's not an interrogation.
37:34
Exactly, and you can be as you can be as elaborate or as
37:38
succinct as you like in answering them.
37:42
Hey there, this is Curtis Ackerman and the Eurolegions
37:45
guys did not ask me for this audio message, but here it is.
37:50
And watch and listen to their show and check out their
37:52
Patreon. It's the best in the business,
37:55
even though they don't care enough to get my recording
38:03
right. So we got some questions from
38:06
the patrons to help us get over the line on this episode.
38:10
So that was very nice of them. And so we've got 4 questions,
38:14
couple of multiple part ones. First one is from GUI on Honed,
38:19
Axi Manomas on Instagram and the likes.
38:24
Which completely new parts would you like to see added to the
38:27
line? He also answers the question
38:29
kindly so they takes away one of our possible answers.
38:33
And I'd personally love to see the chainmail limbs and maybe a
38:37
compatible torso. This might be relevant for what
38:40
I've been doing with Legions as of late, showcasing characters
38:44
from previous ages. Yeah, he's been doing a lot of
38:49
Night Bells and stuff and Game of Thrones type stuff.
38:54
Yeah, he's been, he's been sort of basing it on what the
38:56
characters look like in the books rather than the TV show.
38:59
So yeah. Right.
39:02
Who wants to go first? So rich.
39:06
I, I want different unusual hands and feet.
39:09
So I want, I want suckers. I want tentacles.
39:13
It's coming out of the end of their hands, not just like, you
39:15
know, a clenched fist. I want to, I want suckers.
39:18
That's. A cool idea.
39:19
I want tentacles, I want feet. Similarly, I want tree man hands
39:25
with little branches coming out of them, that sort of stuff, you
39:27
know, just to separate packs. Doesn't have to be necessarily 4
39:30
figures, but just to add a bit of variety.
39:33
While it's very cool at the moment, we know if you doing
39:35
crystal designs and that sort of thing, quite often they end up
39:37
with just like normal armored feet and hands.
39:41
So new varieties of stuff around that would would be great for
39:44
me. Yeah, that does help a lot.
39:47
Even remember when we got the human hands, human skin tone
39:51
hands at some point? That was a big jump for the line
39:55
and now what have you got? I guess why it's probably feels
39:58
a bit boring but more the cloth and the leather parts without
40:03
armour on them. So maybe you know, lower cloth
40:06
arms, lower cloth legs. You want to make villagers,
40:12
don't you? Well, not villagers.
40:14
You wanted the camels have been PJS by the sounds of it.
40:19
You know, leather boots but with off top bits for 2.0 build
40:25
because we we don't get that even in we do.
40:29
We get it in but they haven't got the boots.
40:31
But yeah, yeah. Anyway, you know that sort of
40:33
thing. You just fill out the where
40:36
we've got armoured bits, maybe more cloth and leather bits that
40:39
that's my kind of want. To do, yeah, it'd be cool to
40:43
make like if you think of a character like, say, Robin Hood
40:46
or someone like that. That's yeah, that's kind of what
40:49
is in my mind, you know? You don't, you?
40:52
You'd still have to give him like armoured braces or
40:55
something. And that doesn't really work.
40:58
Maybe yeah as well. So yeah, I think that would be
41:02
cool for me. And just my goal is that as we
41:08
go along, every part in the line should at some stage be flocked
41:12
in the figure. So and then everyone can be
41:19
upset and I can be happy and we all have different.
41:23
Colored flocking everywhere. Just just every part at some
41:27
point, bit of flocking on it, you know, Otherwise I'd have to
41:31
do it myself and that's a lot of work.
41:36
See what the characters look like They rolled through a
41:37
field, the Moss, then John basically having themselves in
41:40
glue. Exactly like every character
41:43
must man review at some point. And, and then if, if, if that's
41:50
not possible for some insane reason, then maybe dwarf legs
41:54
for cosmic, you know, just that kind of scale or, you know, that
41:59
kind of more, more dwarf scale, more of a squat type character
42:04
for cosmic. And I mean, the arms, sure, but
42:08
I think he can get away with the arms.
42:11
It's the, it's the legs that are really important for, for
42:14
customs and stuff. Of course, if they were going to
42:17
do their own, you know, dwarf type characters in cosmic, then
42:22
they can do the arms as well, But that wouldn't bother me as
42:25
much as the legs. It's been totally different.
42:29
Look, I mean, you kind of could say get with Orva.
42:32
It's kind of there, but he's still big.
42:34
You know, it's gonna Yeah, right.
42:40
Next question is from our friend Kieran Edmond in the UK up it's.
42:47
About to be friends based on this.
42:51
I think the second one is the best question ever asked on the.
42:53
Show he's up near Liverpool there somewhere.
42:57
Definitely definitely judge my pardue with the question.
43:00
So what's your thoughts on what we'll come up with for mythics
43:03
this year? Are we getting an ashes of egg
43:06
Bender type wave or will that potentially be legacies of
43:09
mythos? Personally I hope it's a small
43:12
wave, some elves, some Knights and no horses.
43:17
So not a fan of the horses. Or maybe just has horse fatigue,
43:23
which I think a few people could do.
43:26
Yeah, to find space for. Yeah, I think we, so we
43:32
previously said definitely in our predictions, me and Mal or
43:36
Mal and I to be grammatically correct said, uh, that we
43:40
predicted some sort of mid year way for, for mythics.
43:43
So I think we'll, we'll see if we can stick with that or I'm
43:47
sticking with that anyway. I don't know about you, Mal.
43:49
Yeah, yeah. I think more stories from ashes
43:52
about Ben Dora or something like that.
43:53
You know, it's the same sort of thing.
43:56
That would be cool, yeah, to kind of flesh out the the story
43:59
there and you're rich I. Was saying with my we're not
44:01
getting anything. I don't.
44:03
I think with the dragon and all the other small things, I think
44:06
that's that space taken. Yeah.
44:09
And people's wallets are being spent on that sort of thing.
44:12
So yeah. I I think the interesting part
44:17
to that question on top is if so, if, if, if Malin my
44:22
prediction is correct, then what does that mean for cosmic this
44:25
year? Is cosmic going to get a little
44:28
wave maybe in between then then and G con or do we fit ancient
44:35
infinite legions in there? But is that going to is also
44:38
going to be another year done? I think, I think in my head I'm
44:42
expecting Cos next cosmic wants to be September time, right?
44:45
Because that would give me enough time to run a pre-order
44:47
then before G con on the big myth away.
44:52
And so you think what figure obscure or something now in the
44:54
meantime? Yeah, or even just a little
44:57
summer break. Oh wow, to let you buy more GI
45:02
Joes or something that's not going to pay the horseman's
45:05
rent. This is true.
45:08
You're spending money either way, they might as well capture
45:10
it. I know, I reckon we will also
45:13
get Legacy of Mythos this year as well, yeah.
45:16
Oh good. Yeah, they got a.
45:18
Fit an otho and we. Also have we also haven't got a
45:22
clue what G con might be, just like last year.
45:26
So that could be a whole hodgepodge of stuff for all we
45:30
know it. Better be sharkland.
45:34
Well, we have the set sail thing.
45:36
Yeah, that was the set sail for Mythos.
45:38
Well, although. It had to be shark men fighting
45:41
lizard men pirates, otherwise I'm going to Strop.
45:45
If we got some pirates of some sort.
45:48
And and we forget that we have already had the dragon this year
45:51
has solicited so that that didn't self was a kind of a
45:54
mythics wave and definitely with.
45:57
The price and everything, yeah. Yeah, price point and we also
46:01
got a bunch of extra figures in there.
46:03
In stock sale basically became a mythics wave for me.
46:06
Finished. That's a.
46:08
Good point. I spent a lot of money on that.
46:09
Yeah, that's a good point now. Did we all get our in stock
46:13
orders yet? Yes, mine arrived from Brett
46:16
last week. Thank you again, Brett.
46:19
Was that Goodman for me? I've got.
46:21
All but one. It sounds like there's a couple
46:26
of us from the UK. Who's it's the three ATL 20
46:33
fives sat somewhere at the depot in Jamaica, NY since the 30s.
46:42
Yeah, there's a little hold on that.
46:44
Yeah, for whatever reason. I've had stuff that I ordered
46:47
after it so it's weird but. It's weird how it works in
46:51
America. I mean, the stuff that Brett
46:53
sent to me, he generated the postage label on the Sunday, he
46:57
shipped them on the Monday, and they're with me on Wednesday.
47:00
Yeah, yeah. I never get stuff like quick
47:02
from America. Normally it's a week or so I
47:04
mean. Brett is special, but.
47:07
Brett is special. This is true.
47:08
Yeah, he's not. Magician.
47:10
No, he's not. No, but closest thing we have.
47:13
And but yeah, you can also just be lucky.
47:17
But I do think if you think of it like the security at the
47:20
airport, you know, where the bags just randomly go, you know,
47:24
to one land or the other. And I think that's probably what
47:26
happens without a bunch of those ones.
47:28
You know, you're right. Yeah, I think so.
47:32
Having got searched at the airport last year, if we're not
47:34
going through that again, I just got PTSD.
47:39
What type of search was it? Not me, sorry, my bag.
47:43
Just to confirm, there's no blobs pulled on or anything like
47:46
that? Yeah, no.
47:47
Because there was so much plastic in there.
47:50
Basically the guy said, the guy said to me, what have you got in
47:53
your suitcase? And I went action figures and he
47:55
was like, his face dropped and he was like, was there a lot of
47:57
them? I was like, there's an awful lot
47:58
of them. He's like, yeah, that will be.
48:01
So, you know, he tested everything anyway, but he was
48:03
like, yeah, it's just too much plastic.
48:06
Yeah, that's what my wife says, Right.
48:12
And then Kieran has been patiently waiting for the actual
48:15
probably part of his question. He really wants to know what's
48:19
most thoughts on Liverpool Football Club overtaking Man
48:22
United as the most successful and biggest football team in
48:26
England. I think about one we.
48:30
Yeah. I think there's a very serious
48:32
conversation to be had about the downfall of Manchester United,
48:36
but because I'm very. And we can blame the Americans
48:38
as. Well, yeah, you know, but
48:41
because I'm petty, I'm just going to say F off, Kieran.
48:49
But please stay on the patron, Kieran.
48:51
We love having you around, I'd say.
48:54
Well done Kieran. And it's great to have people
49:00
from the UK on the patron as well, because it is we don't
49:05
have that many. So from this side of the water.
49:08
And then I'll give you another reason to say so He says also,
49:11
John, you don't have think think you've ever mentioned what team
49:15
you support. And yeah, I'm kind of a lapsed
49:19
Liverpool fan. So supported Liverpool all
49:22
through my childhood. Yeah, my Big Brother was a
49:25
Liverpool fan, so I inherited it from him.
49:29
And Liverpool were quite good at the time and had a bunch of
49:32
Irish players. I had the the grey flecked away
49:36
jersey with the Candy. Candy was a sponsor with Ronnie
49:39
Wheeler. Yeah, Ronnie Wheeler #5 on the
49:42
back. So he was probably 1 of
49:45
Ireland's best players. Yeah, that was in the 80s.
49:48
Such a good. Player now Ronnie Wheeler is a
49:50
Co commentator and a lot of football on Irish TV these days
49:54
so when you watch the international matches and he is
49:57
a nose, he's just so negative about everything.
50:01
That kind of, it's kind of ruined it for me because he was
50:05
such a classy player. Doesn't stop him being a good
50:09
footballer does it? He's he's there.
50:11
If he's playing football, he's very skilled, not he's a
50:13
personality. But you know, we get one chance
50:16
to like halfway through the second-half and somebody will
50:18
miss a sitter and then be like, oh, that's it, it's over, that's
50:21
over. They've missed it.
50:22
They've blown it. 25 minutes left.
50:24
Ronnie, you know, chill out mate.
50:28
And I hope he was on Co coms yesterday.
50:29
I was at eh football match. So there was Ireland were
50:33
playing Luxembourg in football, coincidentally, and my youngest,
50:37
my boy Ben, he wanted to go to see a big game and he hadn't
50:40
seen the big game yet and. But all you can take been
50:43
bugging me versus like some. But he's been bugging me for the
50:46
last while, of course, and I hadn't delivered, so that was
50:49
that was on me for sure. And really?
50:51
They sold that one, didn't you? Yeah, yeah, just just blanking
50:54
it. Yeah.
50:55
Just to have, you know, to Bundesliga game.
50:59
Yes. And so, yeah, I wanted to take
51:04
him to Six Nations game in Paris, you know, the rugby.
51:06
But that's next year and it's maybe difficult to get tickets
51:11
and it's expensive, but, you know, I'd love to go.
51:14
Yeah. And but then I saw that Ireland
51:16
were playing a friendly with Luxembourg.
51:18
It was announced a couple of months ago.
51:20
So we managed to get, it was easy enough to get tickets.
51:22
So they built a new stadium in Luxembourg about 10 years ago
51:25
because the previous one, the previous one was kind of a non,
51:30
you know, it wasn't your way for compliant or whatever.
51:33
And the great thing about it is I think it's about 12 to 16,000
51:36
capacity and that looks like a small country.
51:39
So that's plenty big. But last night there was 7000
51:43
people there around 7000. And it was a great atmosphere
51:47
because it was just that small. If it was a 40,000 seater and be
51:52
dead, you would have been no atmosphere.
51:54
But they had a bunch like there's a there's a role behind,
51:56
there's a block behind the goal. That's like the the ultras are
51:59
there not really ultras, but you know, the hardcore Luxembourg
52:02
fans and they just literally jumped and bounced the whole 90
52:05
minutes. There was nothing in this game
52:06
of football which finished nil, nil for if anyone that cares to
52:13
yeah, to to be cheering about, but they just went the whole
52:16
time. The kid had a great time.
52:17
He loved it. And we got to see football up
52:19
close. And you, you kind of see how
52:21
little space there isn't a football pitch when you see a
52:23
game in person. Hadn't seen a game in person for
52:25
a while. And probably the last time I'd
52:28
seen a game in person. The players weren't as fit as
52:31
they are these days, even these two teams which are pretty bad
52:35
in the general over yes scheme of things.
52:38
Although we did draw with Senegal on Friday night before
52:41
it and Senegal beat England yesterday, so you.
52:44
Are also awful. Had that one up.
52:48
Well, they lost in the final of the euro, so it can't be that
52:51
bad. So yeah, they feel.
52:54
Lucky that's all they were. I mean, I'm, I'm kind of happy
52:58
that I lived through my childhood where Ireland were
53:01
great at football in terms of, well, in relative terms, you
53:04
know, we got to, to big tournaments and stuff.
53:07
But it would have been nice, yeah, it would have been nice in
53:10
my adult life if we had a decent football team provide.
53:12
But on the other hand, we have a great rugby team and rugby is
53:15
probably my sport more than football, so can't complain.
53:18
So yeah, that was fun. We had a great time, but we were
53:21
home late so he was in bed very early this evening.
53:24
He's usually going to bed on the just before we record the
53:27
podcast. I think he was already asleep
53:29
after before we kicked off. Yeah, because his kickoff was
53:35
8:45 and we didn't get home till probably 1130 by the time we got
53:39
out of the stadium and drove home.
53:41
So alrighty. So then we had a question from
53:44
the wonderful Kevin Boots. This is one I struggled with.
53:49
I mean, I definitely have an answer for it, but a realistic
53:54
answer and you'll see when the question comes that that can be
53:57
difficult. If you could pick any IP to be
53:59
an Infinite Legions, what would it be?
54:01
And what 2 characters would you have them make?
54:04
And this could be something that doesn't even have toys yet, he
54:08
specified. So we think that with Infinite
54:11
Legions, they're probably going to work with more independent
54:13
toy creators. So, you know, you could say
54:17
Marvel Legends, for example, but I don't think that's realistic,
54:20
but it could still be an answer for this question.
54:23
So I'll throw it over to the go for you now first because.
54:27
OK, Yeah. Which might be more comfortable?
54:30
With this a little bit as well, just because of that, it's it's
54:33
trying to think of the small independent toy makers.
54:36
But one did come to mind and I keep flocking.
54:40
This is something I want in Legion style, but there's a
54:44
company that does 118th scale cowboy figures called Chicken
54:49
Fried Toys and they don't have and some of them are a big
54:54
tributary to other things, but they don't give them like so
54:57
there's a wire that's I think that's the deputy Marshall.
55:04
They've actually done cop. They're doing cops and crooks by
55:06
the looks of it. But you know, it's all that sort
55:09
of all sorts of different things from the Wild West, Wild West
55:13
from the Western era. So I don't have any specific
55:18
figures in mind that they do. I don't I don't know them
55:22
massively because they're another thing that's pretty much
55:24
impossible to get over here that they look cool.
55:28
So yeah. So maybe if they worked with
55:29
them and did a legions character from the Wild West from a the
55:36
Western era would be would be very cool.
55:39
I actually wouldn't mind if it was perhaps based on Wyatt.
55:42
That would be very cool. But yeah.
55:47
Would say that's when you'd be cross the line into maybe Figure
55:50
Obscura 2. Yes, yeah, I guess you do, don't
55:53
you? Yes.
55:54
But yeah, that'd be quite cool with the other than that, I've
55:58
really struggled to think of what else I did Wonder based on
56:04
something Rich, sorry to spoil a bit what Rich is going to say.
56:06
He brought up a comic. I don't know if it's small or
56:12
independent enough, you know, or what.
56:14
Yeah, it would perhaps cost them more than, but something like
56:17
Tank Girl be pretty fun as well. Pretty cool.
56:20
I think that's, you know, we get some cool characters in there,
56:23
some fun looking, definitely one fun looking.
56:26
Figuring Tank Girl herself, maybe that'd be cool, yeah.
56:33
Awesome, Rich. So mine is a comic based idea.
56:39
It's my favorite comic from my youth.
56:41
It was only ever 10 episodes, 10 episodes, 10 issues, and it was
56:46
UK based on American listeners might not even heard it, but
56:48
it's called Dragon's Claws and it's it was set in the year 8162
56:56
when the earth has gone to hell, there's climatic disasters.
57:00
Do you know what I mean? It's not going to take 7000
57:03
years, 6000 years. I can't count.
57:05
But yeah. The idea was to try and control
57:09
the, you know, unhappy population.
57:11
They the world government acceptance thing called the
57:14
game, which basically involved teams of almost like gladiators
57:17
going into like a city sized arena to try and complete tasks
57:21
and just beat the living crap out of each other sort of thing.
57:23
If if they found the others and then a few people were killed in
57:28
something so they stopped the game and now these teams are
57:30
just causing mayhem and acting as mercenaries and this sort of
57:33
stuff. So the best team in the game was
57:35
a team called Dragon's Claws, hence the comic now.
57:38
And they were recruited as like peacekeepers.
57:40
So it follows them taking on new normally different other ex
57:45
teams sort of thing. They're all five person teams.
57:49
So on the screen now is picture of the comic and this is one of
57:51
the characters I'd want to see. So the two people.
57:53
So the gentleman in green in the middle there is Dragon himself,
57:57
the leader of the of the team. And that sort of setup works, I
58:02
think quite well with some of the cosmic stuff.
58:03
Anyways, I'm not sure it'd be too much of A stretch.
58:06
And then if you had then spread out to the other character as
58:08
well, you know, there's mercy female assassin digit who's
58:14
half, you know, like Cyborg sort of thing, Scavenger who comes
58:18
the little dog as well, and then a big samurai I called Steel.
58:21
So it's some really cool characters that could go down
58:24
the route off. And then for the second
58:26
character, I'd want you just flip the picture on for John.
58:31
Thank you. So these are the bad guys.
58:33
This is the main, main villainous group again, the next
58:35
team. These are called the Evil Dead.
58:39
And it's the guy holding the gun in the middle.
58:40
He's called, he's the leader of them called Slaughterhouse.
58:43
So he looks like an 80's rock star basically, but he's got big
58:46
razor sharp metal teeth. We should have ripped people's
58:50
throats out within that sort of stuff.
58:51
So I think again, that would be that'd be a very cool thing to
58:55
have. And then the rest of the group
58:56
are just evil so and so's with really cool designs.
59:00
So I don't think for a second they do it.
59:01
But this is the one I absolutely love to see, either by the
59:04
Horsemen through Infinite Legions or anybody else making
59:07
the figures. And also the had a couple of
59:10
episodes of Episodes of God. A couple of issues of the comic
59:14
crossed over with Death's Head as well.
59:15
So you could even bring Death's Head in that way potentially if
59:17
you wanted to. I don't.
59:21
Think the Death said. I don't think we will know.
59:25
Because he's like Rahman toys or something.
59:27
Suddenly decide they want to do it.
59:30
Did you pick up the Marvel Legends Death's Head?
59:34
I didn't. It was too.
59:36
It wasn't metallic enough for me.
59:37
Right, Right. Yeah, if it'd be more metallic,
59:40
100% would open. It just looked cheap and it
59:43
wasn't. It was like £40.
59:44
It's just like, no, it's been £40 on something that looks that
59:46
cheap. Just not happening, no matter
59:48
how much you love the character. Yeah, fair.
59:53
Cool. Yeah.
59:55
For me, I'd like to see them collaborate with like one of
1:00:02
these independent miniature games companies, yes, that have
1:00:06
a bunch of cool characters. I mean, OK, First off, would be
1:00:10
cool if they got some Warhammer stuff and, you know, if they got
1:00:14
to collaborate warmer. But they're pretty big.
1:00:16
Maybe not, but they're big in the States.
1:00:18
Yeah, maybe too big. And they already have, you know,
1:00:21
license figures out with other companies.
1:00:24
And so for example, no, not saying that this is the one
1:00:28
necessarily one, but there's like, it's a French one called
1:00:32
Malifo. Oh yeah.
1:00:34
Bunch of awesome characters and. Get me, cowboy.
1:00:40
By that, yeah, I'm not, I'm not super familiar with this game,
1:00:46
Kevin, so I'm not going to give you 2 characters, but you see
1:00:49
that they have a bunch of different and weird and
1:00:54
wonderful characters. Oh, it's like a steampunk vibe
1:00:57
to as well, isn't? That, yeah, steampunk would be,
1:01:00
would be great. Yeah, yeah.
1:01:01
Look at this. Skirmish game.
1:01:03
So like Necromander and you know, you buy basically a small
1:01:08
squad and it's he is politically, I think if I
1:01:11
remember rightly, it's played using playing.
1:01:13
Cards rather look at that Rich the band.
1:01:19
I'm all over this. I'm with John.
1:01:23
So I think previously we had a. Piano.
1:01:25
That was one of the characters who doesn't want to like a piano
1:01:27
with arms? That's just yeah, bring it.
1:01:31
Yeah, so you know, teddy bears, completely bonkers, but yeah,
1:01:34
yeah, so. That's a cool, cool, cool.
1:01:37
That is a cool one. Yeah.
1:01:39
Yeah. And, uh, yeah.
1:01:41
So something along those lines, you know, find your favorite,
1:01:44
uh, independent Gamesmaker that they might even just have a
1:01:48
tabletop game with character designs and not necessarily the
1:01:52
minis, you know, or they use more generic minis to play the
1:01:55
game and uh yeah, work with them to design some characters.
1:01:59
There's lots of cool stuff like that out there for sure, yeah.
1:02:03
Something like that would be really good actually.
1:02:05
And that's actually a fairly logical route to go down as
1:02:07
well, isn't it? Yeah, exactly.
1:02:10
Now I'm not as I'm not very familiar with the independent
1:02:14
toy gaming. I mean, obviously we know
1:02:17
Horsemen, we know a few of the other people, but I'm sure
1:02:22
there's loads of people out there that they collaborate with
1:02:24
that we just wouldn't have a clue of and we'd have to be
1:02:27
learning up on. I mean, we knew about Glius, but
1:02:29
you know, by Glius because of the Legions community.
1:02:33
And I'm sure there's a bunch more things like that out there
1:02:38
that, you know, and Glais was a nice one to start with because
1:02:41
they have a relationship with them.
1:02:43
Yeah. Yeah.
1:02:46
All right. And our last question comes all
1:02:48
the way over from Zone A over there in the West Coast of the
1:02:52
United States in Jeremy Govier. He says in the next wave
1:02:59
release. What accessories pack would you
1:03:02
hope for? We've gotten hands packs, feet
1:03:04
packs, banners, belts, weapons and scenery packs.
1:03:08
What else do we need? Rich has his hand up straight
1:03:10
away. Demon Wang Pack.
1:03:15
Just for Jeremy. A whole range, you just clip on
1:03:18
one so you can just put on and it's just like, yeah, there you
1:03:20
go. You want a big swinger?
1:03:22
There's a demon Wang for it. You want multiple wangs?
1:03:25
We've got you covered. Oh man.
1:03:29
Tails. I mean, actually it's not.
1:03:33
I mean they know Rich had been daft there, but it's not a bad
1:03:36
shout. The no he was from pieces
1:03:39
though, is it? You know, all the different
1:03:43
places. Get your hand actions.
1:03:48
So the Wang coverings. Yeah, the Wang covers.
1:03:51
Yeah, it would be. It wouldn't be bad idea if a few
1:03:54
different back. Especially that would be cool
1:03:58
and and the and the obviously the belts and and not belts.
1:04:02
What are they called? You mean skirt?
1:04:04
The skirt pieces, yeah. That's a bigger thing there,
1:04:07
isn't it? But yeah, that would be very
1:04:08
cool. I just could do with a load more
1:04:10
of the little cloth crotch covers because they work really
1:04:15
well as an all-purpose thing, don't they?
1:04:17
If you don't want something, you.
1:04:20
Need them in? You need them in multiple
1:04:23
colours, yeah. And if they're wired Malin, you
1:04:26
can do the bulge in the crop in the I'm just talking.
1:04:29
About the little plastic bits or the plastic?
1:04:32
Like red dead. Yeah, the Red Dead cloth.
1:04:35
Yeah, the. One you get on Valak and that's
1:04:40
meant to replicate, I assume, the front of a pair of trousers.
1:04:47
OK, Yeah, go right down. So Rich, do you have any?
1:04:53
Do you have Do you have any advance and Damon Rankster to?
1:04:57
Be honest, I'm chuckling my own joke so much in my head I'm not
1:04:59
sure I do have any advances on that.
1:05:01
OK, Malden. As I say, the yeah, the crotch
1:05:05
pieces across OK. So for me, I had an updated
1:05:12
cloth banners pack or banners pack with the cloth that.
1:05:15
Would. Be good.
1:05:18
And extra especially maybe when we have them all a pop out
1:05:23
Shields pack in a different colour way for the Shields and
1:05:28
maybe even special Mal Khan exclusive translucent spectral
1:05:35
Shields pack. We need we need all the
1:05:37
translucent stuff. You know the Shields can be
1:05:41
normal but the you know the pop up pieces can be spectrum
1:05:45
spectrum so they can be like. That would be good I.
1:05:49
Still need my I need one, one side of the armoury experience
1:05:56
to be translucent cosmic parts if, because I'm sure they
1:06:00
haven't already decided what they are.
1:06:07
Somebody else? All right.
1:06:08
The line a mile would be running around just pushing them out the
1:06:10
way again. No, I'm going again.
1:06:16
They're all my radio. That's all our questions.
1:06:18
So if there's nothing else from. The only thing I do is watch out
1:06:24
everybody. There'll be a live episode
1:06:26
coming in a couple of weeks time.
1:06:28
Yeah. Or nearly three weeks time now,
1:06:30
but yes. I think in 29th of June.
1:06:34
June Yeah, we're thinking a quid because we have most of the
1:06:38
most, AKA Mara. We'll try not for marathon quiz
1:06:43
like the last time. No, I'm I'm doing less questions
1:06:45
than the last time, so we'll get through.
1:06:48
But Mal, you're glad to know there'll be at least 10 drawings
1:06:50
for me in the quiz. Wow, I'm so excited.
1:06:55
Do I have to be a contestant again?
1:06:57
Yes. You don't have to be if you
1:06:59
don't want to, but you should be.
1:07:02
I'm just so bad. Is it movies again or is it
1:07:05
something else? No, no, it'll be all all toy
1:07:07
related. OK, OK.
1:07:08
Then I can, I can maybe do a little bit better then.
1:07:12
Yeah, I'm I'm done with that. Yeah.
1:07:15
We have not forgotten about our Etheron faction focus.
1:07:18
So that will come up in one of the next episodes.
1:07:23
But we thought we had enough to talk about with Infinite Legions
1:07:26
and then a couple of questions tonight that that was that was
1:07:30
plenty for us. And we will also do the richest
1:07:37
randoms with Mal and I being the contestants in the future
1:07:42
episode. And I think, I think that'll be
1:07:45
on the main. That'll be on the main feet.
1:07:47
Yeah. So in a in a quiet week, we will
1:07:51
definitely put Rich's randoms to the tests of people.
1:07:55
Entire new set of questions being set up just as to get.
1:07:57
You tell us about your childhood.
1:08:04
What's your biggest fear from childhood?
1:08:07
When did Father Christmas really let you down by not bringing you
1:08:09
the present you wanted? Tell me, John,
