- 0:12fake hammer. Oh.
- 0:13A fake? Yeah.
- 0:14Whoa. As I say, Dick.
- 0:18Welcome to episode 151 of the Allegiance Podcast.
- 0:24And this week we thought it was a little downtime in between the
- 0:28RPG Kickstarter and a few of the things going on allegiance that
- 0:32would cover all the amazing reveals a toy fair because we
- 0:36just thought, why not? We we were into it, so why not
- 0:39do that? But there's a bunch of other
- 0:41legion stuff going on as well to talk about.
- 0:44We're going to have to try and squeeze that in quickly here at
- 0:46the start and and then we get into the toy Fair stuff.
- 0:51So if you've if you've joined directly for the toy fair, just
- 0:55bear with us while we go through the legion stuff first, because
- 0:57that is our bread and butter, as we say.
- 1:00And man, who's just had his bread and butter for dessert?
- 1:03Just. Nice little bit of peanut
- 1:07chocolate bar. Lovely, lovely.
- 1:10Yeah. And Rich, sick note Rich did
- 1:16well, he made it. He's he's woken up with the he's
- 1:18woken up with the old man neck. You know, we've all done it.
- 1:22Yeah, I can barely move my head, my neck and head.
- 1:24So hence I've got the heat blanket, this lovely light blue
- 1:27heat blanket. There's an old wrapped around
- 1:29me. Is that plugged into something
- 1:31or is it? Oh OK, so you could throw a
- 1:33search at any moment. You just go.
- 1:36Poof. If someone throws a glass of
- 1:38water on me, I'm in trouble. Or if you get too close to the
- 1:42mic, yeah. I was I was saying to you boys
- 1:46in a chat early. I'm really I was really annoyed
- 1:48because I took today off as work.
- 1:49Sorry as leave off work to do a load of stuff for my display.
- 1:53Room to actually do work. Yeah, woke up and couldn't move
- 1:56so I've spent all day with heat blanket and painkillers and
- 1:59torching telly, which obviously is better than work but not what
- 2:02I was planning on doing. But you've kind of you've been
- 2:05the holiday day just for do nothing, which, you know, that's
- 2:10what sick days are far really, isn't it, you know?
- 2:12What I mean? Yeah, you've, you've kind of,
- 2:15you've used of when your annual leave for a sick day, which is.
- 2:17Yeah, yeah. Unfortunate.
- 2:21It's unfortunate, no, When we move to, we go to London
- 2:24tomorrow too for the day, so I'll see what I'm like tomorrow
- 2:27morning, whether that's an option or not.
- 2:29Do you have a busy day in store or or is it?
- 2:32Loads walking around just. Like.
- 2:34That sort of stuff. So I'm walking with legacy.
- 2:37Yeah, you'd like. More mobile?
- 2:39Yeah, yeah. And now you got new getting
- 2:42progress in the room there. I see.
- 2:44Last week there was no shelves here.
- 2:46So no, this week we see some shelves.
- 2:48This is it, all the furniture. Well, not all the furniture is
- 2:50in. I intend to get another desk for
- 2:53painting and all that here, but yeah, furniture's in.
- 2:57Need to get a couple more doors for these here because I only
- 3:00had half doors. I'm going to get full doors.
- 3:03Ignore the load of boxes here. They're not staying there.
- 3:08So, yeah, yeah. That's how I just blame my stuff
- 3:10a lot of the time. That's perfectly decent way to
- 3:13do. It's been not been far off how
- 3:16it's been for a while, so I moved into this room.
- 3:20Yeah, it's great. Well, can't wait to say that the
- 3:22finished, finished product and then we'll see how the shelves
- 3:27look and then in a year's time we'll be talking about how you
- 3:31need to do something else to. You know.
- 3:35To fill a chef or two, no, you have built some contingency into
- 3:38it as far as I can see. So that's.
- 3:39Good. Yeah, it's always sensible.
- 3:40Yeah. No, that should.
- 3:41Be I'm I'm most important for the listeners and viewers.
- 3:45Mal mapped it out on. I hope it was a spreadsheet.
- 3:48It was. It was a spreadsheet.
- 3:50Yeah, yeah. I'm not sure I've ever been so
- 3:51proud. He's.
- 3:52Proud through during the week to us.
- 3:54And I was like, Oh my God, Rich has just fainted.
- 3:57Yeah, if he could give Malibu a bonus and a promotion, he would
- 4:04have. But I wasn't that excited.
- 4:12So just a couple of couple of more things because probably get
- 4:15stuck into it. A couple of dates for your
- 4:17calendars. First up, Mal is going to be on
- 4:20Purple Gang Gang on the 7th of March.
- 4:22So their episode Saturday, the 7th of March, the usual Purple
- 4:26Gang gang time. If you know that show, I think
- 4:28it's 9:00 PM their time, so Eastern Time.
- 4:33So I'm like 2:00 AM and you now. But it now it is OK.
- 4:38I don't Oh, you told us before the show, so I just.
- 4:41Yeah, it's fine. I'm sure they don't mind.
- 4:45You're not a secret. You're not going to be secret
- 4:46guests. You're not revealing anything.
- 4:47Oh. No, no, no, yeah.
- 4:49Exciting. I mean, your presence is
- 4:51exciting in itself. And if you drink as much as they
- 4:55normally do on the show, you might be revealing stuff you
- 4:57never. Know Oh yeah, you.
- 4:59Have an emergency contact ready now if you go drinking, yeah.
- 5:02Basically going to be an early morning for me isn't it?
- 5:07It'll be fun though, I'm looking forward to it.
- 5:09And then the other date is, uh, 4th of April, so, umm, 4/4.
- 5:16So you know what that works in both languages.
- 5:19It does both American and in our language, the only date of in
- 5:24April where that works. And so the 4th of April there is
- 5:29a 24 hour, actually 28 hour because they're doing the four
- 5:34hour after show and live stream kind of telethon thing.
- 5:38They did it for the dragon and they were doing it again.
- 5:42It's I think Curtis is the main ringleader on it.
- 5:45He's doing all the arranging. So we are on board for that.
- 5:49And we're going to be doing the kind of late night in America
- 5:53slop, but it's actually morning time for us, which is perfect.
- 5:57I thought, I thought it would be bad if we didn't take one of the
- 6:01graveyard American time slots given their time zone advantage.
- 6:05We we don't have to put ourselves out.
- 6:08So we are 3:00 AM to 5:00 AM on that Saturday, Friday into
- 6:13Saturday, which is 8:00 AM for you guys, 9:00 AM for me, so.
- 6:18Perfect. And just be clear, I'm putting
- 6:20myself out for that. I'm not.
- 6:21I don't normally see the light of day by 8:00 AM on a Saturday.
- 6:25You just have to see your smile and, you know, follow exactly
- 6:28the instructions. We're going to do like a Euro
- 6:31adventure party. So we're going to have a couple
- 6:33of guests on and we're going to have our characters ready and
- 6:36talk about them and maybe do some BIOS and other chat.
- 6:40But you know, that'll be the main focus of the episode.
- 6:42And then, of course, it's a live stream, so we'll take it where
- 6:46it goes from there. But she has a bunch of amazing
- 6:49people and they have our off world is kicking it off.
- 6:52Then you've legions lair art by Ackerman ourselves.
- 6:56Then door clear. We're so we're we're the warm up
- 6:58to act for door Claire. I think that's what that's
- 7:01that's not a bad thing to be really.
- 7:04And then shooting the shelf after that.
- 7:07Legions Ladies Live then is at 11 AM in on Saturday in the US.
- 7:14They're the warm up act for My Wife's Going to Kill Me at 1:00
- 7:16PM. So there's a contrast of styles
- 7:19there, I would say. That's two different shows,
- 7:22isn't? It gone into Newton Mythics for
- 7:253:00 PM Saturday day live at 5:00 PM Latin Legions, then 5:00
- 7:32to 7:00 PM Legions Lounge 7 to 9.
- 7:36Their prime time. I would say, you know, they're
- 7:39like the the big game, then 9 to 11 PGG.
- 7:43That's the kind of the after hours kind of, you know, more,
- 7:49more for paddles show. Yeah.
- 7:52And then 11:00 PM to 1:00 AM is Ostradamus Toys Clubhouse after
- 7:58party. So there you go.
- 8:00After, after party. The PGG is the first part of the
- 8:03after party. There you go.
- 8:06So sounds exciting should be good I'm sure we'll all have our
- 8:11pledges wrapped up for all that kind of stuff and we'll be
- 8:14excited about it and talking about it and hopefully it all
- 8:17goes well yeah hopefully it all goes well we don't want to be
- 8:22sitting here to open it passes the goal during it that'll be
- 8:28that'll be awkward I'm. Sure it will.
- 8:30It's going. To be no of course.
- 8:31Well, I have predicted that in our in our predictions show that
- 8:34it'll go over in the 1st 24 hours, so.
- 8:37Imagine us doing our, you know, early morning slot and Miles
- 8:42spent so much on the pre-order that he's like betting on
- 8:44Philippines footballer missiles. I mean watching his face with
- 8:48the results coming in, trying to get some of it back.
- 8:52Yeah, it's don't do that. Don't do that, kids.
- 8:55Don't gamble. It's not worth it.
- 8:58And right, so we get stuck into the news then.
- 9:01So that's all the the admin, I guess.
- 9:05News legions news first. This was announced as we
- 9:09recorded or just before we recorded last week, or just
- 9:13after we recorded last week. Sorry I.
- 9:14Think as we were recording maybe?
- 9:17Or PG Heroic wizard announced on Legions ladies, and
- 9:20appropriately enough, because it is a female character.
- 9:24So female wizard and really cool build.
- 9:30Leather torso, the hooded kind of plastic hood, bare arms,
- 9:36leather boots and a nice skirt piece that it's all plastic.
- 9:39So no, no soft goods in this one.
- 9:44What do we think? I think she's great.
- 9:49It's funny because she's actually very close to a couple
- 9:52of builds I'm going to use Rising Suns parts for for a
- 9:56couple of characters. So yeah, it made me chuckle a
- 10:00bit when I saw her. But I'm looking forward to maybe
- 10:04the upgrade pack for this to see what they do when they throw in
- 10:07a Cape because the wizard without a Cape to me is is a
- 10:10struggle. Yeah, they definitely need a
- 10:12Cape. But a cool figure as it is.
- 10:14I mean you. I like the colours colours of
- 10:17all the figures we've got and I think they've kept them quite
- 10:19simple, but they look really nice.
- 10:22That you're right, Mal. Yeah.
- 10:23The the sort of brown, light Browns and Blues go really well
- 10:26together here. Yeah, this is kind of the, it's
- 10:29a variation on this Sir Andrew colour scheme.
- 10:32You know, it's not the same, but it's the same tones.
- 10:36Slightly eh, They go together really well and Rich.
- 10:41You like this? I would like this.
- 10:42Yeah, yeah. Umm, despite my normal dislike
- 10:45of two point zeros, and that's also she looks really good.
- 10:47The colour scheme is amazing. I really like the the the sort
- 10:51arts. They've used everything.
- 10:52Yeah. Instant buy for me.
- 10:55Excellent. So 10 out 10 for this eh female
- 10:59figure. So there you go.
- 11:00We're not always eh against the female figures here, or at least
- 11:05me and Rich are not always well tends to be more Yeah, right.
- 11:10Well tends to be more accommodating towards towards
- 11:14them. Eh, right now we're talking or
- 11:17PG Jaguarly and Ranger. So this was just announced
- 11:23today, so I was very happy to see this in time for our
- 11:27recording. So we've got a cool ass Jaguar
- 11:32that goes on the same build as the Rogue, sort of, you know,
- 11:35the kind of elvish Rogue figure that we talked about a week or
- 11:39two ago, which we can see here in the next slide.
- 11:43So this is basically the upgrade pack for that.
- 11:49So you've got a base figure and an upgrade pack.
- 11:52Don't know exactly how it's going to work on the
- 11:56Kickstarter, whether you can get either the Ranger or the Rogue
- 12:00as a base figure and then by the upgrade bits.
- 12:05I think looking at the way they've described it, it's going
- 12:07to be. The range of the upgrade.
- 12:10And then the rate, yeah, Then yeah, The thing is the range.
- 12:13Grade, yeah, yeah, but. Amazing eh?
- 12:16Amazing looking figure here. New cat head.
- 12:19Yeah, and this cat head is incredible.
- 12:21It's fantastic teeth. There's an angry cat.
- 12:24We've been wondering one of those for ages.
- 12:25Or is he smiling at you? Or just before he eats you.
- 12:31You never know what the old cats.
- 12:33So this is a yeah, Jaguar Lian. So Jaguar, I mean, Jaguars can
- 12:38look like leopards as well. So I think it's easy to to to
- 12:43say this is a leopard either. But as it's called Jaguar Lian
- 12:47in the name, I'm going to, I'm going to go with that.
- 12:49He's definitely not a tiger, let's put it that way.
- 12:52Who know? Mistake it for a tiger.
- 12:56Yeah, now with his joke this morning, so yeah.
- 12:59I was too quick. It was a great joke.
- 13:01It just didn't work for this this particular type of big cat
- 13:04it. Was a great.
- 13:05Joke. You're right, you're great.
- 13:12And yeah, it comes with bow and arrow as well.
- 13:14And so that's the Ranger element of it.
- 13:17The bows painted like wood as well.
- 13:19Is that the first time they've done?
- 13:22That. Yeah, it is.
- 13:23Yeah. Yeah.
- 13:24The bow was painted like wood, and he and Jeremy confirmed that
- 13:27they were inspired by Patrick Boyle's.
- 13:30EH. Oh.
- 13:30Excellent stuff. And eh, Patrick is definitely
- 13:35the forerunner in the fan community for the RPG so.
- 13:38And he's runs the group, so he must be tough to bits with the
- 13:43whole thing. And why wouldn't he?
- 13:44And why? Why shouldn't he?
- 13:46Exactly. And yes, superb.
- 13:49The Cape, even fantastic. I mean, that accessory pack is
- 13:53$15. I'd pay that for the Cape.
- 13:56Yeah. Totally, Yeah.
- 13:58Absolutely. You know, you know, if you were
- 14:00even at a con, your mall, that's.
- 14:02Yeah. Yeah, you probably went to a new
- 14:04for that sort of Cape. It's just yeah, completely.
- 14:08And so there it is there. Yeah, we'll talk about this more
- 14:12next. The RPG is launching next
- 14:14Wednesday and they have the live stream better next Tuesday,
- 14:18which will be before we record next episode.
- 14:20So we'll be we'll be knees deep in this next week, don't worry.
- 14:24And there's still. More.
- 14:25Figures to be revealed. We can even, yeah, and we can
- 14:29even, and probably more stuff and which is super exciting.
- 14:32We can even maybe bring up the Kickstarter page and, you know,
- 14:36start making our backings live on the show.
- 14:40Speaking of, yeah, we yeah, we might need someone in the room
- 14:44Mal to to. Stop half.
- 14:47One of them, one of them one. Of them so schedule of events
- 14:52for next week as alluded to their Monday the 23rd as a live
- 14:58stream special the four Horsemen YouTube channel to reveal
- 15:02everything that will be available as part of the
- 15:04Kickstarter and Wednesday the 2nd or the 25th of the second is
- 15:13the campaign for mythic legions runway begins at Kickstarter.
- 15:17So there you go, Kickstarter kick off and then Saturday the
- 15:224th is the end of the end of the campaign.
- 15:27So there you go. Very exciting.
- 15:32Yes, very, very. I'm sort of I'm a little
- 15:38surprised how excited I am by this campaign and and the RPG,
- 15:43but also also the figures. But the RPG I'm I'm really
- 15:48looking forward to and a little nervous of how much money I
- 15:52might spend. It's when they reveal it with a
- 15:56maltier Yeah kickstart, then you know you're in trouble, Yeah.
- 16:01And I believe, I don't know if that if this applies for us
- 16:05overseas, but I believe that they will be enabling something
- 16:08on the Kickstarter, which means that you can pay in installments
- 16:12after the Kickstarter ends, 3 installments.
- 16:16So. Must be a function on.
- 16:19Kickstarter, so which means it wouldn't be.
- 16:22Yeah. It would be Geo locked whatever.
- 16:25Let's see how that works out. We'll find more details out
- 16:28about it, but it basically means that on the Saturday when the
- 16:33Kickstarter ends, you'll pay a third of your pledge and then
- 16:36the on the 4th of April and then the following two months you'll
- 16:40pay the other 2/3. So that could be an option for
- 16:45for some. I think it also might be a bit
- 16:48of a factor of they've already announced that the in stock sale
- 16:51will be in April so maybe they will they want to help people
- 16:55with their budgets to give them the maximum amount of cash shall
- 16:59we say. So all very exciting.
- 17:05I forgot to mention these last week we'll be only had one but
- 17:08now we have 2. The coins, the Odysseus coin and
- 17:15also the goblin coin with Noggins Noggin on it.
- 17:20So these are eh, part of the Kickstarter coins that you can
- 17:23be able to get. I think eh, I was surprised, but
- 17:26Rich is eh. He's not pain guy, but he is a
- 17:28coin guy, so. I'm a coin guy, he's collected
- 17:31and I was a kid, so lots of time for coins.
- 17:34Yeah, did you get the coins from the eh I'll fated Mythic legions
- 17:38tactics, eh? No, because I didn't back.
- 17:42That OK, so I did, but it's not a complete set because you
- 17:46didn't get all the factions, which is disappointing, but
- 17:48yeah, that's why this will hopefully make up for that.
- 17:51Yeah. So eh, Mel is obviously super
- 17:56excited for these as well. I think you love all these
- 17:59collectible, eh? Gold lasso stuff.
- 18:01I'm a yeah swag. That was the word I was looking
- 18:05for I think. Some so cool display box for him
- 18:08as well. Yeah, I think he'll come and
- 18:10dribs and drabs. Yes, exactly.
- 18:12I think Len Lagardia been involved as a project manager
- 18:15here is definitely a factor because he has done coins for
- 18:20different allegiance cons when he was doing Wolf King and stuff
- 18:23for the community. So I think he's definitely lent
- 18:28some of his expertise in that area here.
- 18:30So great to see what we got next.
- 18:35Oh the legendary warrior there she is, 2 heads, 2-3 headscopes,
- 18:41black hair, blonde hair and the valiant knight helmet.
- 18:47Basically on the Navy build with some you know different belt
- 18:52pieces, armour and. The three scaled up to 1.0.
- 18:58Yeah, Trace had kind of mirrored and scaled up to 1.0.
- 19:02And yeah, so that's all that happened with this figure.
- 19:06This week we announced the touring figure, touring figure
- 19:10for For Legions this year. Last year was the legendary
- 19:13Barbarian, this year's the Legendary Warrior.
- 19:17Yeah. So as I said, we could probably
- 19:19fill a whole podcast, probably with talking.
- 19:22About this figure, just expect to see a lot of female heads 1.0
- 19:26size female heads with red hair allegiance con for sale for
- 19:28people like custom ones. So there was two other head
- 19:33scopes if you've been under a rock, there was two other head
- 19:36scopes, red hair, one with a painted face and one without,
- 19:39same head sculpt, and so would have come with five heads.
- 19:44We got a post in this morning as we were recording our yesterday
- 19:49morning. Sorry, regarding the 2026
- 19:53touring figure. So this is from the Horseman.
- 19:55This figure was designed as a generic female barbarian warrior
- 19:59for the Realm of Mythos. And we packed her with various
- 20:03hair colours so figure fans could display this figure how
- 20:07they saw fit. After getting this figure in
- 20:10hand from and the initial promotional images, we
- 20:12determined that certain presentation elements created an
- 20:16unintended similarity to an existing fantasy character.
- 20:21To avoid unintended overlap with that existing fantasy character
- 20:26and out of respect for others copyrights, we have decided to
- 20:29remove 2 heads featuring the red slash orange hair from the
- 20:33legendary warrior figure. While we know fans were excited
- 20:36about those parts, as were we, this adjustment allows us to
- 20:41move forward confidently with the figure as originally
- 20:45intended, a generic fantasy warrior for mythic legions,
- 20:50without unintentionally infringing upon any existing
- 20:54designs or copyrights. All promotional images on our
- 20:57website social channels have been updated to reflect the
- 21:02final configuration of the figure.
- 21:04So end of quote. So there you go.
- 21:10We have an insight into this because we saw that the Red
- 21:13Sonya official social media channel and Instagram was
- 21:17spamming every comment in the forestman's post with this
- 21:23licence belongs to boss fight, blah blah, blah.
- 21:26Now officially life they had, yeah, they had definitely jumped
- 21:30to the conclusion that this was a copy of Red Sonia Horsemen
- 21:35definitely claimed here it was a generic fantasy warrior.
- 21:38So there is definitely the elements of a dispute there.
- 21:42Clearly the Four Horsemen decided that wasn't worth the
- 21:46time or the money or the hassle. You know, bad publicity, good
- 21:50publicity, whatever it might be, and that this was the safest
- 21:53option for them to take as a company because do you want to
- 21:57die in the heel of this one figure for the sake of
- 22:00everything else, lots of people's jobs, incomes,
- 22:03everything? Probably not.
- 22:05And yes, the fans will be annoyed and it is annoying.
- 22:10And yeah, there is a lot of backlash from the Mythics
- 22:15community now against the Red Sonia boss fight.
- 22:18Studios of all the licenced people are blaming them.
- 22:21We don't know the full story. I would assume it's the licence,
- 22:26the people that give out the licence for Red Sonia that
- 22:30possibly sent an official communication in relation to
- 22:33this. No insight there so can only
- 22:36guess. Or the OR the horsemen thought
- 22:38that they would would eventually do that and so they didn't want
- 22:42to start selling this figure. And now unfortunately some poor
- 22:47person in the warehouse has to go through all these boxes and
- 22:49take out the heads. And I think one of the heads was
- 22:53possibly one of the heads that came packet like packaged on the
- 22:56figures. So that's going to be annoying.
- 22:59You know, it's be bad enough you're just taking the 2 heads
- 23:02out of the plastic package. Oh.
- 23:05Yeah, Can you imagine the amount of?
- 23:10Yeah. Cable ties you're gonna have to
- 23:12unscrew and screw back up. Holy I only just thought that.
- 23:17Excuse my language. If the horse, the horsemen could
- 23:21hire me. I'm an expert around packing
- 23:22stuff at speed. Yeah, but you have to.
- 23:25Do it in such a way that that it's like sellable as is.
- 23:29This is true. They they could hire me and I
- 23:31promise the 2 heads would not have come home with me as the
- 23:37two heads I was most excited about.
- 23:41And as you know, if this was a pre-order, you know, this would
- 23:46be, this would be one thing. They wouldn't have produced it.
- 23:48Yeah, maybe they wouldn't have got as many orders as a result.
- 23:52Or you know, yeah, you take 2 heads out and two popular
- 23:56looking ones probably is going to affect.
- 23:59Well, what's been order also? This is being stuck in the
- 24:02warehouse. Yeah, I was going to say, if it
- 24:04was a pre-order, they could have done something about it and
- 24:06perhaps modified the heads, done something with those heads and
- 24:09provided. They would have done brown hair
- 24:11with the face. Whatever.
- 24:12Yeah, as it is. And they hand them in hand,
- 24:15Yeah, the the only thing they could do is take it out.
- 24:18Yeah. So this is a, you know, we love
- 24:21getting the figures quickly and in hand, but this also is the
- 24:26risk of that business model, you know, when somebody can just
- 24:31cooperate like that. So yeah, it was.
- 24:35It was. The right decision by a
- 24:36horseman, wasn't it? It was.
- 24:38I mean, I'd like to think common sense would prevailed and that
- 24:40person would have lost if they'd gone to court, but it's not
- 24:42worth awesome and spending time and money on that.
- 24:45No. And you you could go down the
- 24:47whole thing of should they have done it in the first place,
- 24:49blah, blah, blah. But you know.
- 24:52The petty part of me really looks forward to like 6 months
- 24:54time when a Chinese company puts out a Reds on your figure.
- 24:58Best of luck to the property holders suing them.
- 25:00Yeah. Well, perhaps if the figures
- 25:05that were being produced currently were of the standard
- 25:09of what for awesome produce, there wouldn't be anything to
- 25:12worry about. This is true.
- 25:14And I can say that because I own one of the existing figures and
- 25:18I see it as a make do figure because nothing else exists.
- 25:24So leave that there. This is this is still a people.
- 25:29People like Barbarians. This is still a very cool
- 25:31barbarian. Yes, yeah it is.
- 25:34I will be I I may have switched where my finances are being are
- 25:39going so I actually now have more to spend on these than I
- 25:42had before despite. There you go.
- 25:46Not getting. Yeah, there's definitely big
- 25:49community backlash and I guess there's a crossover in the
- 25:53community, you know, between the collectors.
- 25:56So collector community isn't that big that you can just have
- 25:59a mythic legions community and it's in that silo and they don't
- 26:02buy anything else, etcetera. You know, lots of mythologies
- 26:07collectors by tonnes of other lines as we're going to talk
- 26:10about right now in a second and you know.
- 26:14Faithfully those other lines like to another dig others isn't
- 26:18it? It's, you know, because they're
- 26:20all you know, their shit don't stink sort of thing.
- 26:25Yeah, I suppose, you know, you'd like to think we could all just
- 26:28get along, but I suppose there is always a discussion.
- 26:32And you know, our opinion is these horsemen figures are
- 26:36great. That doesn't make that doesn't
- 26:40make it any other figure any different to what it is.
- 26:43It's just we like these and we compare other figures to these.
- 26:48If they're better, we'll say it. If they're not as good, we'll
- 26:51say it. And I think people can't handle
- 26:53the latter part of that, you know, St date better news
- 26:58retailer wave St date second. I keep saying it, these dates
- 27:03messed me up. The 18th of the second.
- 27:08There you go. So today as we record Wednesday
- 27:1118th of February. Although I've not heard
- 27:13anything. Oh no, mind you I can't
- 27:14remember. I bought mine from at this.
- 27:16Point. I haven't either, but I wonder
- 27:18if they're waiting for as a Rising Suns preorder them as
- 27:23well, So they might want to put it on the same rather large box
- 27:27then I would I would suggest, but you know, I'm not I'm as
- 27:31much as I want these figures. I'm also OK with, you know,
- 27:34another week or two end of the month.
- 27:37Maybe you could pay for them then?
- 27:40Yeah. Well, mine are going to you
- 27:41anyway, John, so you'll be getting even more.
- 27:44Oh, that's right, yeah. I mean you.
- 27:46You what? If you was turned up before
- 27:47mine. Feel free to open them and use
- 27:50them as yours, that's fine. It'll be so anyway and then
- 27:55yours will turn up unboxed. Exactly so anyway.
- 28:00The four figure obscuras So the two gods of ancient Egypt
- 28:04repaints the goes to Christmas past in the retailer paint
- 28:11scheme. So not translucent bright blue
- 28:14Frankenstein in green. The awesome cosmic phantom
- 28:18trooper cannot wait. So hoard trooper nod, you know,
- 28:23and the Vernacis Arden scale, which is my most anticipated
- 28:27figure right now, even though the dwarf Tupac is coming as
- 28:29well. And I don't know what to do
- 28:33because they're so good. And I just got my shipping
- 28:36notice from the Horsemen and my All In is arriving on Friday
- 28:39according to FedEx. This.
- 28:41Friday, yeah, because I picked the priority two day shipping
- 28:46because when the ship, when you get an all in, sometimes if the
- 28:49cost is so high, suddenly the priority shipping, while
- 28:51expensive, is pretty much within 4/4 or $5.00 of the regular
- 28:56shipping. And you, you could just go the
- 28:59lowest shipping. But if you just think, well, the
- 29:01priority is 2 day shipping and they are very bang on with it
- 29:05because I guess usually people that choose that option, it's
- 29:10like mission critical stuff, you know, like commercial stuff.
- 29:14Yeah, yeah, these are just collectibles, but hey, they're
- 29:18mission critical for this podcast and my happiness.
- 29:24As you can see from the big pile of stuff behind me, mine might
- 29:27have to wait for a bit before I can put them because there's
- 29:32nowhere for them to go. Yeah.
- 29:34Well, that's another problem, another little there.
- 29:37Is but I can't get anything in. Another little side, eh eh
- 29:44effect maybe of this whole eh, legendary warrior.
- 29:47Thing is, maybe the horseman will be less inclined now to do
- 29:51homage as to anything, which could of course suck for all of
- 29:56us in, you know, our various, you know, they just might think,
- 30:00OK, let's just not even bother that anymore, even if we have a
- 30:04good relationship with the companies that, you know, we're
- 30:08homaging to, for example, the, you know, Mattel stuff.
- 30:13So yeah, it could be the end of the road for that kind of stuff.
- 30:16Let's see. Hopefully not.
- 30:19This is Matt Drake from the Toy Linux YouTube channel, and
- 30:21you're listening to the Your Allegiance podcast.
- 30:24Eh, right, let's Toy Fair. Toy Fair.
- 30:26So deep breath from all that stuff.
- 30:29Toy Fair. Apologies to the people who
- 30:31tuned in for the Toy Fair based on the thumbnail I have for this
- 30:34episode. But you know, it's the Internet.
- 30:37That's how it works. Yeah, I've heard us talk good
- 30:42stuff up to now, I'd like to think.
- 30:44Yeah, I mean, last week's thumbnail, I just threw all the
- 30:46Rising Suns figures into it and that got more views than like
- 30:52double the amount of normal views that that are normal
- 30:55episodes on YouTube. Because the thumbnail is
- 30:58definitely a factor on YouTube for people clicking in that
- 31:01don't know us. So, yeah, interesting sometimes.
- 31:06Let's see, right? We're going to go through this
- 31:10reasonably quickly because I do not want this to be a mega long
- 31:13episode and we have 140. It's like the pictures.
- 31:21That is less than go deep a slide previously.
- 31:24So we're we're getting even worse.
- 31:27Right. Super 17 T reaction plus.
- 31:30So I mean we like turtles. This reaction plus is basically
- 31:34more articulated than five points reaction, right?
- 31:37Yeah, but what I didn't need was less articulated turtles.
- 31:44So this is this is like the old Star Wars figures style.
- 31:48That's what reaction is, right? And reaction.
- 31:50Plus it means they have like herbal articulation and the
- 31:53articulate. More like GI Joe the I think the
- 31:56new GI Joe line is a reaction plus.
- 31:59So they're more like the old GI Joe.
- 32:00Beautiful thing about cool these is the card back, so I did have
- 32:05some of the MOTU ones back when I was collecting MOTU and the
- 32:11the card backs on them were from Super Seven were always
- 32:14fantastic beautiful. Amazing they.
- 32:17Shredder foot soldier and then eh, you have Rafael and
- 32:22Donatello, so. This card back out isn't as
- 32:25good. I quite like it.
- 32:27I know what you're. Saying it's, it's certainly.
- 32:29So yeah, something about it. I always hate when you just get
- 32:33to with the turtles. So that's that's annoying, yeah.
- 32:37One thing we should probably start off with and hopeful and
- 32:40people might notice it if they haven't already.
- 32:43They seem to be the convention for posing your figures in the
- 32:48shittest possible way you could. Well example number one primary
- 32:531 Mundo 112 scale 2000X he man and Skeletor who look amazing
- 33:01except for it looks like rich to pose them when it was drunk.
- 33:04It looks like rich post them after he got his neck pain.
- 33:09You know, how do I pose them to be like me with my neck pain and
- 33:13my he pad over me? He man, looks like I've posed it
- 33:17and then he's just, the legs are just wobbled and he's lent back
- 33:20a little bit on the shelf now. Lift his arms properly.
- 33:26When I had put these slides together, I noticed a couple I
- 33:30came across pictures where these were slightly better posed.
- 33:33Same on the same place. So I guess somebody realised and
- 33:38did it. So must say, and I should have
- 33:40said when we started, 90% of these pictures come from
- 33:45peternia.com, so from their socials, between Twitter and
- 33:52Instagram. And some of them, some of the
- 33:55pictures come from the Toy Arc, who I think the Toy Arc
- 33:59watermark their pictures. So you probably see them when
- 34:01they're there. So I mean, these people go and
- 34:03cover the cons. It's amazing.
- 34:04And they post their pictures probably.
- 34:06So we're very. Appreciative coverage is always
- 34:09really good. Using them yeah, exactly.
- 34:11So thanks to them too for making these public on their socials
- 34:18and stuff so we can just come in and grab them and talk about
- 34:22them and credit them. So there you go SO2000X MO 2
- 34:25human sculpture great, I mean great looking figures, $100
- 34:29figures, but yeah, hard to talk about these poses they.
- 34:35Don't look like $100 figures in those poses 1/6.
- 34:39Skeletor, EH and Pantor from Mundo as well.
- 34:43This is kind of my experience of of EH posing these 1/6 figures.
- 34:49Had a couple of them and sold them because they were so
- 34:52frustrating to pose. I know some of them have.
- 34:55They've been improved as they go along and some of it could be
- 34:58me. If Mundo can't post them
- 35:03properly then you know that's looking at that.
- 35:06Skeletor is definitely in a pose that I would do.
- 35:08Yeah, 100%. He's just reaching out.
- 35:11Where's my havoc staff? Where's my glasses?
- 35:15Look amazing. These are mega expensive like
- 35:17250 for Skeletor I think and 500 for the Pantor or something like
- 35:23that or 500 so. The sort of thing if I had a lot
- 35:27of money I would probably buy, but OK.
- 35:30Yeah, same here. A lot of money and more display
- 35:32room. I'll be all over them.
- 35:33But. Neck tattoo and T&T, You were
- 35:37into these at some stage, Rich no.
- 35:39No, I've always managed to. I love them, but I I can't get
- 35:42past those black lines. And the black lines are designed
- 35:44to make them look like this, right?
- 35:47Yeah, but I hate it. I've got a If they got rid of
- 35:49those I'd buy them all. I've got a couple and yeah, I'm
- 35:53sort of, they're the ones I kind of pick and choose for
- 35:55favourites. I got echo because.
- 35:59Michelangelo in a construction outfit.
- 36:01Here you got Leatherhead, is it? Yeah, yeah.
- 36:07Some sort of waistcoat. You got eh Sailor Rafael here in
- 36:12the right and eh Michelangelo in a puffer jacket.
- 36:19And disguise, yeah. Yeah, you know those comedy
- 36:24disguises? Yeah, and they come with pizza
- 36:25and the bags and the very, umm, mega cool accessories.
- 36:29Nico does the the cool not accessory.
- 36:32Sailor Rafael is just weird. Yeah.
- 36:36It's like creepy weird. It's just like hmm.
- 36:39Loki's Marvel Rivals and block. Not my aesthetic here, but cool.
- 36:44Marvel Rivals is a game, right? Yes, Yeah, so I am.
- 36:49These looked like game figures. Yeah.
- 36:53You got? Was it Rocket Raccoon?
- 36:58Who's this on the right? You got some sort of and spider.
- 37:01Penny Parker and Spider Man kind of suit, Yeah.
- 37:05And there's a kind of AI just wanted to show the assembly
- 37:09pictures that come on sprues, sort of like a model kit.
- 37:13So they're a little bit different to the ones you get in
- 37:15the box, like the Transformers ones or whatever.
- 37:17Yeah, so, but blockies are knocking it out of the park with
- 37:21all their stuff. They are.
- 37:22Anyone that's listened to our show knows how much we like
- 37:25them. Yes, Mega Man, you're you're a
- 37:28big fan of Mega Man Rich, but not these.
- 37:31And I don't like the design of these.
- 37:32If they'd gone more, excuse the pun, blocky and cute, then I
- 37:38probably would have been all over them.
- 37:39But while these. Are anime.
- 37:41Yeah, not for me. Your daughter might like these
- 37:43more than you she might pay for. Myself if she does.
- 37:49But these are the great prototypes, so that also makes
- 37:52it difficult to visualise when you're not familiar with the
- 37:54property as well as others might be.
- 37:58And I'm. I pretty much just know Mega Man
- 38:01from the classic look. You know that you'd be talking
- 38:04about Rich. Yeah.
- 38:07Right. Jazzwear's Avatar the Last End
- 38:10Airbender. Anyone into this property?
- 38:13No. No.
- 38:14OK, so kind of figures. They look cool.
- 38:17Yeah, they they are. Not 6 1/2 inch so 12 scales so
- 38:21pretty cool. And cartoon figures.
- 38:22I know that's a very popular eh cartoon series so look like good
- 38:28figures. NECA Horror, No Dead by Daylight
- 38:36and eh. Friday the 13th here.
- 38:38Yeah, I think NECA does really, really good job on the yes.
- 38:41I'm just not a huge horror, you know?
- 38:43I'd never have. Yeah, I mean, I've debated some
- 38:46of their Tooni terrors a couple of times, umm, but not all.
- 38:50Taken the plunge. But stuff like this looks great,
- 38:52but not for my own. Yeah, if you're into this line,
- 38:55and I'm sure, Nick, I've done a bunch of this over the years,
- 38:57the different firms, the different outfits in the films
- 39:01and stuff. This is Michael Myers here,
- 39:03right? Yeah, yeah.
- 39:04Yeah, yeah, so cool. Yeah.
- 39:06Blood, gore, all that kind of stuff.
- 39:08It's funny, I love horror movies, but I've just got no
- 39:11desire. I don't need figures that you
- 39:13know, for horror, mostly. They might want to.
- 39:16That would be different, but mostly.
- 39:20Yeah, when I started customising, I thought it'd be
- 39:21cool to do blood effects and all this kind of stuff, but actually
- 39:24it isn't in the end because you're kind of stuck with that
- 39:27look then you can't redo and with it once it has kind of
- 39:30blood splatter. Eh, NECA, Predator, this we're
- 39:37fans of modern Predator stuff as well, I think the movies and
- 39:41stuff. Yeah.
- 39:42So this comes from eh, Badlands. Is it Predator Badlands?
- 39:45That's right. Which is now free to watch on,
- 39:49umm, Disney Plus. Everyone's what?
- 39:50Disney. I would say so.
- 39:51Oh yeah. Oh.
- 39:53That's your weekend sorted now. Yeah, yeah.
- 39:56I really, really enjoyed it. So I thought it was really,
- 39:58really good fun. Totally different to every other
- 40:00Predator film, but really good. I love to look at this figure
- 40:03here with the three, well, four heads, including the one that's
- 40:07on him. Yeah, really more.
- 40:11I guess Badlands is the kind of like Mandalorian type look, you
- 40:17know, the kind of wasteland kind of warrior type.
- 40:21Of Thing and the 1st Warrior we saw there is the the lead for
- 40:25the film, so he's the main guy and then this guy on the left is
- 40:28his father. Yeah, he's like a buddy.
- 40:33Yeah, these are great if you're into this property in the
- 40:38Badlands, kind of predator, Badlands, bit of it.
- 40:42Very cool. Also Predator 2 Predator so.
- 40:49OK, but I see. I didn't think I'd have an
- 40:51interest in the Badlands figure, but now I haven't seen that
- 40:55robot behind him. If you can figure a way for him
- 40:57to carry the robot on his back, actually, that could look really
- 41:00cool as a display piece. Yeah, well, tempting NECA,
- 41:11Fortnite Times horror. So I don't think we're Fortnite
- 41:14people here either. And as we said, we're not horror
- 41:16figure collectors. But you got Michael Myers,
- 41:20Halloween 2, Texas, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and that one
- 41:27in the middle. I don't know at all.
- 41:29Is that soul in the middle? Yes.
- 41:30Oh, maybe so. Yeah, OK, yeah, I'm not a horror
- 41:34person at all. So more fortnight times, TMNT
- 41:40this time. Mal, you, you like the look of
- 41:42these? Oh.
- 41:42Yeah, I'm not supposed by the Shredder, but I think the
- 41:45turtles look kind of cool. But they again, they're horribly
- 41:48posed, so it's it's difficult to get a real feel.
- 41:52They're all in kind of like, not quite a tea pose.
- 41:56It's slightly down from a tease, you know, it's it's, it's a tea
- 41:59pose for people like me with bad shoulder.
- 42:02I'm beginning to think now, so many different companies have
- 42:04them all posed this way. Does somebody break in like
- 42:06before and just go around changing them because like this?
- 42:09I mean, what the hell, you know, I guess prototypes are hard to
- 42:13pose, I'll agree with that. That might be, yeah.
- 42:18Still. But yeah, I'll, I'll, I'll keep
- 42:21an eye on these because I'm not a Fortnite fan, as we, as we've
- 42:23just said, but I've there's some I like in the designs of these.
- 42:27They're cool. All four turtles?
- 42:29There you go. And they're all for eh Q3 it
- 42:33says. Prototype shown.
- 42:35I actually like the Shredder more than the turtles would you
- 42:37believe. I think the turtles just look
- 42:39too lanky and the body looks too long, but I think in a good pose
- 42:44they could look really. Good.
- 42:45Yeah, it's, it's difficult, isn't it?
- 42:49But then on the other hand if I'm if I'm not a mega turtles
- 42:53collector for everything and I'm not into Fortnite, I don't see
- 42:58why I would get these. Because I'm a sucker.
- 43:06And this is, uh, this is actually the 20, the 2002
- 43:12turtles. Yeah.
- 43:14Is it 2002? But then yeah, more recent one.
- 43:17Or 12, 2012, maybe 2012. Sorry, I put the wrong heading
- 43:21on them. Yeah.
- 43:25Ultimate Slash. So these are very stylized
- 43:27compared to, you know, the normal ones we'd see.
- 43:32Casey Jones. That that the animation had,
- 43:35yeah, that was my problem with it.
- 43:37Had some cool designs and some nuts cool designs.
- 43:40Like I go back and forth on that Casey Jones, that is actually I
- 43:44think the best he's looked and very tempted by that.
- 43:48Yeah, generally, I'm not keen on that.
- 43:50Casey Jones. Why?
- 43:51Why is Metalhead so small? I don't know.
- 43:54Yeah, I don't. I didn't get super far.
- 43:56I've got, he was. Made out of a dustbin or
- 43:58something. Yeah, and Treader is massively
- 44:01tall. Yeah, yeah.
- 44:05It's like he has stilts on underneath something.
- 44:07Splinter. You mean so?
- 44:09A splinter. Sorry, Splinter.
- 44:12All right, more my ballpark here.
- 44:15Neck. A Sesame Street.
- 44:16Yeah, these are really cool. So you got Grover, you got big
- 44:20birds, and you got Oscar the Grouch in the Bay even.
- 44:23Big birds got those arms outpost.
- 44:25Sorry, I'm just about it now pointed out.
- 44:28It's just like, well, that. Grover is in a fantastic pose,
- 44:32though, understand, You know. Yeah, give him that.
- 44:35Big Bird here has the. Apparently that was the original
- 44:38Big Bird head. It was on Big Bird, the first
- 44:43series, I think, Yeah. That's quite cool.
- 44:48Uh, looks like a kind of bed head big bird, doesn't it?
- 44:53Yeah, I think it costs a lot to use all those feathers in there
- 44:57because apparently they're real feathers.
- 44:59So I think that's why the original big part of Many
- 45:02Feathers and then and they upped the budget a bit.
- 45:05Oscar is great in the pin. I I just wish that they gave him
- 45:10his bottom half as well. Yeah, because it's very much
- 45:13that is what you get so. Yeah, I've heard a lot of people
- 45:16saying that I'm out. Yeah, but you're right, that's.
- 45:18Yeah. Is it a figure then really if
- 45:19it's just? Yeah, that's it.
- 45:21I mean, it's not a statue, isn't it?
- 45:23That's it. If they gave him his bottom off,
- 45:25I'd be buying Oscar the crowd, because I love Oscar.
- 45:27I think he's so fun. Yeah.
- 45:30Is it a, is it a figure on its own or does it, is it a packing?
- 45:33See if there's a packing. Oh, that would be grand.
- 45:36No, I think, I think it is a figure, yeah.
- 45:39I feel like when they showed it off at one of the toy fairs last
- 45:44year there was some extra stuff with him that isn't there, but I
- 45:47might be misremembering. Muppet Show Nikka So no,
- 45:52Palisades had a big Muppets line back in the day and then Diamond
- 45:57Select had it as well. I don't think they I don't think
- 46:03time Select finished the line. So because they went bankrupt or
- 46:06whatever happened to them. So Nick have taken over the
- 46:10licence and started again. I think he's look spot on.
- 46:14You know, he's got Piggy, yeah, he got Gonzo.
- 46:18He got the kind of band members at the back.
- 46:21I don't know their names. You got the chicken.
- 46:24Most important, like the. Chicken and the dog, Yeah, so is
- 46:28look fantastic. So Muppets fans, Nikki is your
- 46:31busy? Yeah, stop for toys.
- 46:33I would imagine Mr Gerard will be very happy with these.
- 46:36Yeah, I think so. Rich.
- 46:38You. You're not Muppets.
- 46:40I'm, I'm very tempted. I'm still something about the
- 46:42Sesame Street, to be honest. Yeah, if I had spare cash line
- 46:45around, I definitely. Grab the get the blocky Sesame
- 46:47Street. It's much cheaper.
- 46:48Yeah, that'll fit the need neck. I got duck tails.
- 46:51I think you're you're screwed here.
- 46:53Yeah. I got very excited.
- 46:55Well, I got very excited when I saw these.
- 46:57I might only end up getting Scrooge Mcduck, maybe, but the
- 46:59whole there, when I saw the way he was just like, oh, my God,
- 47:02love the duck sales. Yeah.
- 47:05So who's this guy here? The in the brown top?
- 47:11Don't know him I. Honestly couldn't tell you.
- 47:12I can't remember. I think he was his nephew,
- 47:17wasn't he? Was he another nephew?
- 47:21I know I. Can't really, I do remember him
- 47:23from the show but I can't remember what he was called or
- 47:26anything. Yeah, and then we've got Dewey
- 47:32is the is the little red guy here?
- 47:34I wonder if the the nephews are going to come with the other
- 47:39figures because of him being so small.
- 47:42Yeah. Oh, no, that's this.
- 47:43This small one is Huey. Is it the red one?
- 47:46Yeah, yeah. Huey, Dewey and Louis.
- 47:48That's all I ever remembered. Yeah, exactly.
- 47:50Yeah. Even when I was younger, it was
- 47:51like, they're just huge you. Yeah, they look great though.
- 47:57But really, Really. Yeah.
- 47:58It looks spot on from the cartoon.
- 48:00That could do a good job. Articulation is not always the
- 48:03best, but they do a grand job sculpting.
- 48:07MacFarlane, World of Warcraft. Elise.
- 48:10King Arthur. I have not seen this this.
- 48:14Is there you go. This kind of fits in with the
- 48:18Legion style figures, so this could be just a random bad guy
- 48:22to put in on your shelves. The MacFarlane scales well, the
- 48:26legions as well. Yeah, it's a little bit bigger,
- 48:28but it's very close. It's.
- 48:29Good one for parts, MacFarlane stuff, yeah.
- 48:33I love the sculpt on this, I love the look of it, I love the
- 48:35paint. I'm not a World of Warcraft so
- 48:39the character I don't know anything about but willing to
- 48:42learn. He was the bad guy in the in one
- 48:46of the expansions. Probably still a bad guy, but
- 48:49obviously I've moved on since then.
- 48:51Yeah, yeah, he was very popular character.
- 48:54Cool. And a bunch of you've got
- 48:56different heads more, you know, unmasked whatever with the with
- 49:01the hairpiece and the two different facial expressions and
- 49:04punch hands. So pretty cool.
- 49:06One big badass sword, that. Will be 1.
- 49:09I will be buying definitely. There you go, sold McFarland
- 49:14marble rivals. So bunch of stuff here.
- 49:18He's like a bit more like statues, don't they?
- 49:21Yeah, I think the key rings, aren't they the ones on the
- 49:22left? The ones at the front are key,
- 49:24ring or bag tags maybe? Got Is it Jeff the shark?
- 49:29Yeah, yeah. Oh, is that Jeff Alan Shark?
- 49:33Yeah, ah. OK.
- 49:36And then and then this is Magneto here is it.
- 49:39It looks like him doesn't. It gives off Magneto vibes.
- 49:41Yeah, he said he had a word Cape.
- 49:43So there you go, Captain America and Thor.
- 49:48Another bunch of bag tags in the front.
- 49:51Different. Quite like the Human Torch one,
- 49:53Yeah, because of it being a bit translucent looking.
- 49:57You're so easy now. I seriously.
- 50:01And Doctor Strange. So I do wonder if these are
- 50:04statues. They do.
- 50:05They are statues. Sorry I missed that, but yeah
- 50:07they are definitely statues. That's only reason they can do
- 50:09them. McFarland Warhammer Rich, Yeah.
- 50:15Every time I think the line's dead, they'll drop another one.
- 50:19I mean, they seem to be going very heavily spaced marines now,
- 50:22just reusing the mould over and over.
- 50:23But that's not a bad thing, you know, They don't cost the Earth,
- 50:27I don't know, like £30 or something.
- 50:28They're big figures. So yeah, I'll be getting these
- 50:33to add to the collection. Makes me tempted to pick up the
- 50:36Space Wolves that they've had because I love the Space Wolves.
- 50:39I think they're cool. Doesn't know the space wolf.
- 50:41In a minute, Malik. Yeah, that's what triggered me
- 50:44with the Got John, There you go. Does it Rich?
- 50:50You'll know this better. And it might just be the
- 50:52lighting as wash them out, but it feels like they're using less
- 50:55and less paint apps on them. They're all really, really basic
- 50:58Paint apps on some. Really basic Paint apps.
- 51:01Yeah, really basic, which is a bit of a shame.
- 51:04It's. Flat, yeah, there isn't.
- 51:06There's a need of a bit of depth maybe on the paint.
- 51:08But again, the price point, yeah, might be higher than you
- 51:11know. Exactly.
- 51:13Yeah, I think that's what I think.
- 51:14That's what it is. Well, I think they're hoping
- 51:16that a lot of the buyers and the collectors will just be able to
- 51:19give them a wash or something if they want a slightly more
- 51:20tarnished look away. Yeah.
- 51:22But I just wish like, Warhammer is the thing that you paint.
- 51:25So for me, the paint jobs on the action figure line should be
- 51:30yeah. That.
- 51:32But I love this guy, the red guy here on the left with the yeah.
- 51:38I think he's there. He's.
- 51:39There's Space Wolves, is that right?
- 51:41The one on the Sorry Rich, you do this.
- 51:44The great The grey blue on the right is a space wolf.
- 51:46Space Wolf, OK. I think the guy on the left as
- 51:50we look at it is Blood Ravens, which I think was the chapter
- 51:54from the game. What was the game called?
- 51:59Dawn of War? I think they were the blood.
- 52:00So I think that's who that is very.
- 52:03Good McFarland NBA. I am loving the MacFarlane the
- 52:08look of the MacFarlane Sports figures.
- 52:11I might have to pick up sort of one of each.
- 52:16This is the kind of thing where you'd pick up the ones of the
- 52:20team or your favourite player or something.
- 52:22It isn't a collectible thing really, is it?
- 52:25No. So I mean, I don't have a
- 52:28favourite team so it will just be picking up the one that looks
- 52:31cool. I can safely say when we get the
- 52:33basketball player, unless they release that guy that bought the
- 52:36figure the painted head from us legions.
- 52:38Oh yeah, they do him. I'll absolutely buy it.
- 52:42Yeah, magnetic basketball as well.
- 52:45That's cool, isn't it? To them, which is that's a cool
- 52:48solution for that. They seem to have UFC there as
- 52:52well, but I have like less than 0 interest in your team, so I
- 52:56guess that's LeBron there in the Lakers.
- 52:59Yeah, uniform. I won't embarrass myself by
- 53:02trying to guess any other basketball players.
- 53:05No, no, I'm with you on that. McFarland Hell divers don't have
- 53:09a clue what this is, but they look like cool figures.
- 53:12Hell, Divers is a game. I don't know much about it.
- 53:16They look cool, like you say. Yeah, yeah, some cool
- 53:19accessories you got maybe. Could be you got blue, yellow.
- 53:22And kind of orange. They look, you know, cross
- 53:25between a stormtrooper and the kind of, we don't know, elite
- 53:29Jedi troopers and. Remind me of Warhammer 40K kind
- 53:34of stuff as well. Yeah, kind of slimmed down,
- 53:37yeah. Well, some of the Imperial
- 53:40Guard, which, oh, human types. Yeah, and a black one here,
- 53:44black and with the yellow trim and then fall out.
- 53:48So you've got the Coca-Cola suit, which is really cool.
- 53:52Yeah. Be tempted as a one off buy from
- 53:55that line. That might be a cool 1, you
- 53:57know. Yeah, I need to get the the
- 53:59generic silver one at some point.
- 54:01I think that'll fit in really well with Cosmic.
- 54:03Yeah. But yeah, the Coca-Cola 1 is
- 54:04cool. Yeah, I do love Fallout the
- 54:07series so. Is the second series as good as
- 54:10the first? I'm not.
- 54:12I got an episode. I've got. 2 is OK the I got an
- 54:16episode in a bit into it was like.
- 54:18Umm, which I would say is the weakest bit, and then it
- 54:23suddenly turns and it's every bit as good as the first season.
- 54:26Oh, excellent. OK, it's funny.
- 54:28It is literally an episode and a half and your way you like Oh
- 54:33no, of that. And then suddenly you're just
- 54:35like, I mean, this is a man. Excellent.
- 54:38Yeah, it does feel at the start there of Season 2 like they're
- 54:42trying to build a bit of background for you again, you
- 54:46know, to kind of get you invested.
- 54:50But yeah, as you've told me to stick with and or after the
- 54:53first two episodes, I don't know.
- 54:55I haven't done that. I don't know if if you should
- 54:58believe me, McFarlane. Mortal Kombat, Immortal Kombat
- 55:02People here. Street Fighter.
- 55:04I haven't gotten yet but I do. I want to get them but I'm also
- 55:09conscious of my violent might just stop it and not do some of
- 55:11the cool characters. And I don't want to spend 30 to
- 55:14£40 per figure and had like 5. You like the Ravens?
- 55:18Awesome. They've done the best version
- 55:20stuff in 2 packs as well. So they're lizard?
- 55:23A reptile, sorry is much better in the 2 pack version than the
- 55:27single one. Sub zero is better in the 2 pack
- 55:30and so that's a bit frustrating. So this is Mortal Kombat
- 55:32Classic, so I guess it's the original game.
- 55:34Yeah, So a bunch of them. They're translucent ones now,
- 55:40not your bag though. Mortal Kombat just doesn't do it
- 55:43for me. They are they they're cool, but
- 55:45not as figures. I don't know.
- 55:47They were. Yeah.
- 55:49I'm not sure what it is. There's some stuff as figures,
- 55:52just. I just don't care, you know?
- 55:54If I had endless space and cash, this is the kind of stupid stuff
- 55:58I might buy. Yeah.
- 55:59I mean, they're not stupid if you like it like, but like
- 56:01stupid for me to buy because I'm not as much into it as a real
- 56:06fan so. That's it.
- 56:07As I say, I'm just a bit a bit twitchy because they've just
- 56:09reused the ninja mould over and over and over again already and
- 56:13it's like, you know, you've only got like 4-4 or five characters
- 56:16at the moment. It's like flesh out a bit and
- 56:18then start doing ice version. It looks like a bunch of stuff
- 56:22here though. Yeah, yeah.
- 56:25Well, that a lot of this has been out already though, so.
- 56:28Mezco. So Mezco turtles.
- 56:31Now we have Mezco Splinter. He looks awesome.
- 56:34Best Splinter I've seen. I think is actually bigger.
- 56:37Yeah. Yeah, I'll be getting.
- 56:38So it'll be the Mezco price, so around the hundreds or depending
- 56:43on what they do. Great promo picture.
- 56:46Amazing. No more details on him yet.
- 56:48So they they just dropped little kind of one shot pictures like
- 56:53this gangster dude. So a great generic kind of
- 56:58gangster. Gangsters Inc, which is part of
- 57:02their Rumble society, which is their own in house IP.
- 57:06So if you've got all the Gomez and all the other type of
- 57:09figures, this one will fit in there somewhere.
- 57:11Yeah, and really cool soft goods suit again as well as they do
- 57:15that well. Yeah, Harry Potter.
- 57:20So this is in there is that there's slightly less
- 57:23articulated line. This isn't the one to ask.
- 57:25This is like 5 points or whatever they call it.
- 57:30Looking at that poses, I'm presuming so.
- 57:32Yeah, yeah. So you got Harry, Hermione, Ron,
- 57:35and the Dark Arts teacher from the first movie who escapes.
- 57:43Me, I'm not somebody to help you with that.
- 57:44I'd struggle to three main character names.
- 57:47Killer clowns from outer space Rather rather flush my money
- 57:52down the toilet than get this. But I know this is for some
- 57:55people, so I'm sorry. I might get this.
- 57:58I've Yeah. Oh God, the killer clowns.
- 58:00Yeah. I've never actually seen the
- 58:01movie, but I do have a proper soft spot for them.
- 58:03NECA I've got all six of them out and I I keep seeing them in
- 58:07places like Forbidden Planet and going oh, and it's like we get
- 58:10up and then put it. Back there must be a new a new
- 58:14movie or something out because Amazon MGM Studios is here down
- 58:18the corner as the licensee, so they may just own own it.
- 58:23Yeah, it's quite a cool classic one.
- 58:25If it's worth a watch, it's absolutely bonkers, but it's
- 58:28it's easy and fun to watch. Yeah.
- 58:31I need to give that watch them. Yeah, after I'd watched The Last
- 58:34Starfighter earlier today, the recommendations came up and
- 58:37Critters was one of them. Was like, yes, so we're watching
- 58:39that again, saying, because I love that.
- 58:42And this is part of their MD's mega line, so that's different
- 58:46again. Thundercats.
- 58:48Mezco, 112th. Oh my God.
- 58:51Yeah, help for the wallets for a lot of people.
- 58:56Yeah, no details, it's just a picture of just the graphics or
- 59:00things. It's going to be Lino, isn't it
- 59:02first? You've got you think so, Mum?
- 59:04Rather Lino, maybe, yeah. For me, that kind of is not
- 59:08through it, you know? You know you need at least the
- 59:11Co. Author I know you do need the
- 59:13core crew, but you know, I think if you've Mum and Lionel first,
- 59:20that's a shelf, isn't it? And what?
- 59:21They're going to do, they're going to flock them or they're
- 59:23going to give them like material.
- 59:26Be interesting. Yeah, we don't have time to
- 59:29discuss that so let's move on. GI Joe.
- 59:31So bunch of stuff here and you shout when you want to.
- 59:35So this Cobra Cobra LA Royal guard here.
- 59:38As you know, massive fan of the movie.
- 59:40They feature heavily in the movie.
- 59:42I have pre-ordered three of them.
- 59:45I haven't pre-ordered him yet but I'm very tempted so I might
- 59:48well go back and get him. He looks cool.
- 59:49Yeah. Cobra overkill so.
- 59:52I don't know him. In plastic key to me.
- 59:55Yeah, he's he, the little blurbs said he was the.
- 1:00:01Like the advancement of the bat. Umm, but he he looks like he's
- 1:00:05from toward the latest series that yeah, after I was
- 1:00:08collecting them where they started to get.
- 1:00:10I mean, I quite like the colourfulness, but there's some
- 1:00:12of them are too naff looking to translate to this and he might
- 1:00:16be one of them. Hydro Viper here, Rich.
- 1:00:20Very excited about this. Yeah, these are great.
- 1:00:23I love the hydro. Hydro figures.
- 1:00:24Yeah, yeah, these have. Only one pre-order, so the these
- 1:00:29first few, so if you need them, get on to yeah, yeah, Hasbro
- 1:00:34pony order. I don't know how in America of
- 1:00:36how it works. There's different Walmart and
- 1:00:38all this kind of stuff. We don't have that.
- 1:00:41Yeah, you've, you're saying Rich, you've ordered one so far.
- 1:00:45You're thinking about. One so far, but I might get
- 1:00:47another couple. Yeah, I had two as a kid and I
- 1:00:50just love the figure. So I'm trying not to army build
- 1:00:54with the GI Joe, even though you are meant to.
- 1:00:56It's like no, it just takes too much space and too expensive.
- 1:00:59But. Airtight.
- 1:01:03Aw so happy to get this guy. He was one of the very first
- 1:01:06GOO's I ever bought. He's a nostalgia 1, isn't he?
- 1:01:09He's a proper nostalgia one. Yeah, it's, yeah, I've been.
- 1:01:13I think we whenever we mentioned GI Joe classified on the show,
- 1:01:16he's always been, I want to airtight, I want to airtight.
- 1:01:17So I'm very happy that he's airtight.
- 1:01:22Sounds like a dirty movie. JoJo Snakeo is Dawn Moreno.
- 1:01:27I, I've seen her in comp, you know, in comic books in the
- 1:01:31past. I don't really know anything
- 1:01:34about her. A cool female.
- 1:01:37Figure yeah, she looks cool. I don't know if I'll pick her up
- 1:01:40though. No, not for me.
- 1:01:42I've got, I've got my original snake eyes.
- 1:01:44That'll do me. Yeah, I mean, I love, I love OG
- 1:01:47snake eyes. And Mr Cowboy Alejandro Balam
- 1:01:52Sundown, Luna Mendoza. A new creation from them and I
- 1:01:58think he looks really cool. I've actually had to.
- 1:02:01Pick him up just because he's a cowboy who looks awesome.
- 1:02:03Yeah, that's it. I've bought 21 to keep as he is
- 1:02:06and add to my Joe Shelf and another one to customise and
- 1:02:09make him look a bit more like a traditional cowboy.
- 1:02:13Yeah, he shouldn't work in the JoJo, like even as bonkers as it
- 1:02:16is, but he does. He's great.
- 1:02:18I've done all the job. Yeah.
- 1:02:21Right, Rothclaw and Cobra. Uh, Denis.
- 1:02:28Oh, it's a dinosaur, of course. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:02:32So definitely can't say the name these these are just reveals or
- 1:02:37these up for order as well. Just reveals, yeah.
- 1:02:39This reveals Yeah. Any takers here?
- 1:02:42I. Think she's I think this might
- 1:02:45be another new creation. Might it and and from I don't
- 1:02:48know, I don't know, but I I think it's great.
- 1:02:51It's it's that bond bit of cobra, isn't it?
- 1:02:55Love the GI Joe when they come with the little animals as well.
- 1:02:57So yeah. Yeah, an easy but easy buy for
- 1:02:59me. And Hasbro doing such a good job
- 1:03:01with the the animals, aren't they as well?
- 1:03:05Definitely and Dreadnought Chameleon.
- 1:03:07Yeah, definitely be getting this chameleon.
- 1:03:10But yeah, I'll get this. It's all right.
- 1:03:15Yeah, this is definitely by. She is Zartan's daughter.
- 1:03:19There you go, and. You need the chameleon, So yeah,
- 1:03:22yeah. Was the chameleon what Zartan
- 1:03:24came on as the originally like the vintage 1?
- 1:03:28Is that because he came with a vehicle and it was?
- 1:03:30That I think it was the chameleon.
- 1:03:31Yeah, I think so. David Red Dog, Tapu Tapu and
- 1:03:39anyone say that last name Peru John not.
- 1:03:42Even very yeah, Taurus, Taurus AVN Bit disappointed by how
- 1:03:48small Taurus is, but these guys are along with Mercer, although
- 1:03:54Mercer felt a little small as well, along with Mercer, the
- 1:03:58these guys and Sergeant Slaughter like the best thing to
- 1:04:03come out of the movie. Well, one of the best things to
- 1:04:05come out of the movie. They're awesome.
- 1:04:09All right, Night Creeper. This guy this.
- 1:04:13Guy kind of a cephalopod type of vibe here.
- 1:04:17Rich. Yeah, they re they is that reuse
- 1:04:21of the one that came with the other guy?
- 1:04:22Yeah. It was now most completely
- 1:04:25escaping it's crystal ball. Crystal ball that's.
- 1:04:29Right. Yeah, that's the reason, but.
- 1:04:31It's also using the cobra went some hand arms if you notice.
- 1:04:38So they're like reptiles, yeah. We get it's cool.
- 1:04:43This is I think. Yeah, I think I'll get him just
- 1:04:45because of the translucent plastic.
- 1:04:48And Ninja Force Zartan. Yeah, again, this is again one
- 1:04:52of those that came way after I'd finished collecting the
- 1:04:55originals, but he's a bit of an iconic figure.
- 1:04:59That's good. Yeah, it's.
- 1:05:01Fun. Doesn't he look so cool?
- 1:05:02Yeah. Not for me, I've got the
- 1:05:04originals art on all day me, but he does look a cool bigger.
- 1:05:07And then GI Joe times or Turtles times, GI Joe even, Yeah.
- 1:05:13Actually look quite. Funkers.
- 1:05:15These these shouldn't work, but they actually look quite cool.
- 1:05:19Yeah, I think he'll probably just get Snake Eyes and Storm
- 1:05:23Shadow. So who is making these?
- 1:05:26Do we know? Is it Hasbro or Playmates?
- 1:05:29It's Hasbro. I think he's I know.
- 1:05:31I know Hasbro it. Does say Hasbro Joe licencing?
- 1:05:35Yeah, he does. Yeah, Viacom.
- 1:05:38You can tell who's the glasses where it is like I can barely
- 1:05:40see any writing and utilise Yeah, it says.
- 1:05:42I was brought at the bottom there.
- 1:05:44But yeah, you get, you get. They've announced like all the
- 1:05:47turtles. April, eh?
- 1:05:51B Bar is rock steady. The the Donatello I come in the
- 1:05:56character he's he's been portrayed as umm, but that
- 1:05:59moustache looks creepy as creepy can be, is it?
- 1:06:03Wi-Fi. Was he called?
- 1:06:05Is it Wi-Fi dial tone? Dial tone.
- 1:06:07Dial tone. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:06:08Dial tone that that wife that moustache screams not allowed
- 1:06:14within 200 yards of a school moustache I.
- 1:06:16Think they're all? Really cool.
- 1:06:17But Leonardo Snake guys, right? Yeah, guys, Michelangelo says.
- 1:06:23Shipwreck Sailor Guy Shipwreck. I love the shipwreck one, he's
- 1:06:26so good. I think they're all fun.
- 1:06:29They're all I. Love the bodies.
- 1:06:30I love the bodies I think more than the turtles.
- 1:06:32The bodies just look really cool.
- 1:06:35I I had forgotten about the buffer rocksteady as the
- 1:06:37dreadnock. Yeah, as the Dreadnocks man,
- 1:06:39you're in trouble. With the suits them, doesn't it?
- 1:06:41Yeah. And I love.
- 1:06:43Crying. Crying, yeah, as the There's
- 1:06:46Deathstroke. And that's slash as well, isn't
- 1:06:49it? Flash as storm.
- 1:06:50Shadow, I think that looks like the best.
- 1:06:52Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's amazing.
- 1:06:57A bunch of vehicles here as well.
- 1:06:58This is proper toilet. For it aren't.
- 1:07:01They yeah, I see the Playmates logo on it.
- 1:07:03So Playmates are making these with.
- 1:07:05Yes. With Hasbro so and it looks as
- 1:07:09soon Playmates are manufacturing.
- 1:07:10This. With that the orsh or shell
- 1:07:13strike. That's good.
- 1:07:17And we got the turtle fly copter with spinning Cortana blades.
- 1:07:23Depending on the price for this one I might get this.
- 1:07:26What you going to do with it though, it's just going to take,
- 1:07:28I don't know, it's crazy, but. I just, I just really like them
- 1:07:32having badmouth mouth collecting the turtles crossed with
- 1:07:34everything else under the sun. There's like, oh Gee, that
- 1:07:36looks, that looks really good actually.
- 1:07:39So Marvel Legends anyone? Click Marvel Legends still.
- 1:07:44The odd one or two. Yes, we'll get the occasional.
- 1:07:46Yep. Incredible.
- 1:07:48Hulk, it looks very cool. Professor Hulk with the kind of
- 1:07:52Bunny slippers. Yeah, there's If you're into the
- 1:07:56Hulk, then yeah, I'd imagine this is a must buy with those
- 1:07:59slippers. Some people have like just a
- 1:08:01Hulk shelf and it's just. I bought the.
- 1:08:04Versions of Hulk, isn't it? I was.
- 1:08:05Tempted. I still need that definitive
- 1:08:08Incredible Hulk figure. That yeah, see I had that and I
- 1:08:12sold ages ago and it's still thing like should I go back and
- 1:08:16get that one? This this one isn't it, but it's
- 1:08:19fun. Iron Spider?
- 1:08:21Aaron Davis, anyone? This one?
- 1:08:24Don't know this one at all. No, we don't know this character
- 1:08:26at all, so probably not. It's.
- 1:08:28Called Golden Black Spider man yeah yeah, of iron Spider on
- 1:08:32masthead is eh, obviously Aaron Davis who's got a dark skinned
- 1:08:38character, very cool looking head.
- 1:08:41I've got the red and gold original iron spider.
- 1:08:44Me too. That looks like it's identical
- 1:08:46to say well. And then, uh, we've got a bunch
- 1:08:50here of Marvel legends secret wars.
- 1:08:52So these are classic looking, uh, yes figures, right.
- 1:08:56This is throwback to, to an old secret wars line.
- 1:09:00Yeah yeah. Umm, so you got Daredevil here
- 1:09:03and they all come with this, uh, set like a, it's not almost like
- 1:09:07a hologram. This is this plastic thing with.
- 1:09:09Yeah, they came with a shield, with a hologram.
- 1:09:12The shield didn't used to be able to pop it out and swap the
- 1:09:15holograms over. Oh, flip the hologram, was it?
- 1:09:17Can anyone remember? Yeah.
- 1:09:19I can't remember when are you and I both brewed to, this one
- 1:09:23aren't. We now we have.
- 1:09:24We like their design. Yeah.
- 1:09:26And this one's Spider Man and this guy costume.
- 1:09:29Yeah. I love the transitioning
- 1:09:31element. It's good, isn't it?
- 1:09:33Yeah. It's kind of like he's
- 1:09:34transitioning to Venom. Yeah, I guess.
- 1:09:36Is it? Well, the symbiote suit it was
- 1:09:38it was the Secret Wars comic where Spider Man got the
- 1:09:42symbiote suit. So that's this is a bit of a
- 1:09:45like reference to that. Right, marvellous magic with the
- 1:09:52Ki. Have no interest but it's sold
- 1:09:54out on Hasbro Pulse already. Wow, you miss a popular.
- 1:09:56She magic. That's a very popular hex man
- 1:09:59character I actually did have. Possibly not many versions of
- 1:10:04her. They did bomb previously they
- 1:10:06did. Warm.
- 1:10:07Yeah. Much.
- 1:10:08More, I think the evil version there was it perhaps or she was
- 1:10:12in my line or something, wasn't she?
- 1:10:13And I did have that and then decided I didn't need her so.
- 1:10:17But yeah, I'm going to say cool head sculpt on this one.
- 1:10:20I like that. Very good and Falcon.
- 1:10:26Very vintage looking Falcon. Yeah, I actually.
- 1:10:29A bunch of stuff with him. You got wings, you know, if
- 1:10:32you're looking at price point, you know he's the same price as
- 1:10:35Spider Man who comes with nothing, basically.
- 1:10:37Yeah, actually had the secret wolves version of and have still
- 1:10:42got it somewhere of the Falcon. Oh really?
- 1:10:45Let's get this on to display with it now.
- 1:10:48I've tried to sell the other one, I didn't know where.
- 1:10:53I wish I could find a way to get a Falcon into my display, but I
- 1:10:56just because I really like the character and the look of the
- 1:10:58character particularly, I just can't think of away, so at the
- 1:11:02moment he's not coming to me. Right constrictor.
- 1:11:09Part of the serpent society, but that's all I know.
- 1:11:12I don't know a lot about him. Yeah, they've done this guy
- 1:11:15before, although this is a better looking version.
- 1:11:17Yeah, this small look, isn't it? Yeah.
- 1:11:19Yeah, classic X-Men suit kind of look.
- 1:11:21Yeah, blue and yellow. He's a bad guy.
- 1:11:25Absorbing man this. Is a very cool version of
- 1:11:28Absorbing Man. See, I hate this version.
- 1:11:31Really. There's no absorbing parts.
- 1:11:34Is he kind of absorbing man when he's just plain flesh?
- 1:11:37Very good. I was like throwing things at
- 1:11:39the screen when they revealed this one.
- 1:11:41No, it's a very good. Place he's also sold out in
- 1:11:43health transport pulse. I see so also eh daredevil is
- 1:11:48sold out. Eh, Magic is sold out like he's
- 1:11:51guys said. Yeah, I ended up having to order
- 1:11:55it from somewhere else because they'd already sold out within
- 1:11:59like hours on UK Pulse. Right.
- 1:12:04Maximum series tour. This is a lot of tour, yeah.
- 1:12:10This must be a deluxe figure, is it?
- 1:12:12Must be. I think it is, yeah.
- 1:12:14And it comes a little frog Thor as well.
- 1:12:17Love it. Two different.
- 1:12:19Well, you're near, so you can have one with him flying with
- 1:12:21it, one with him using his weapon on the ground.
- 1:12:24It's it's a very good thought. Looks like it might have
- 1:12:27removable wig type scenario, doesn't it?
- 1:12:30He does. Yeah.
- 1:12:31Well, he does it. Yeah, maybe.
- 1:12:34No saying any of the heads, the sort of flesh parts that fit
- 1:12:38into the helmets or the the hair options, which is good.
- 1:12:43I've been I've been having a hard about the thought I had a
- 1:12:45lot of Thor Marvel legends stuff and then sold it all.
- 1:12:48But I'm thinking I've still got a low key that we're trying to
- 1:12:50sell I can't get rid of. So maybe I'll just get to this
- 1:12:52Thor, lot of a Thor and low key and then it would be a good.
- 1:12:55For, it feels like a. Once you've got this one, you
- 1:12:58don't need another one. Kind of.
- 1:13:00Exactly. Umm, right, Daredevil.
- 1:13:05Uh, so Marvel's Muse and Marvel's Bullseye.
- 1:13:07So that's from Daredevil, I guess the series.
- 1:13:10Yeah, so I'll be getting the pack because I want muse.
- 1:13:14I'll get rid of the bullseye because I've got I've got a
- 1:13:16better original costume bullseye.
- 1:13:19Oh yeah, I'm doing something similar.
- 1:13:21Not because I've got balls, I'm just not fussed by Bullseye.
- 1:13:24I've not read the story with Muse, but I just think it's such
- 1:13:28a cool design and a gruesome story behind the character and
- 1:13:33that I really want to figure off him, which is this is what I
- 1:13:37wanted most. And that made me pick up the
- 1:13:40other Daredevil because I thought that was a cool version
- 1:13:42of Daredevil. So I can display that.
- 1:13:45That'll be my little Daredevil display.
- 1:13:48What made me laugh on the live stream was the reveal of Easter
- 1:13:51and they kept talking about all the red paint.
- 1:13:52So if you couldn't use the word blood.
- 1:13:55So they just kept referring to them as well.
- 1:13:56They really like red paint. Look at them, They've got lots
- 1:13:58of red paint. For God's sake, just say blood.
- 1:14:01This is just ridiculous. Avengers, Black Widow,
- 1:14:04Quicksilver. What do we think here?
- 1:14:08Good cool classic look if if if well for Quicksilver, perhaps a
- 1:14:14bit more than Black Widow. Black Widow almost a little
- 1:14:17anime but but I'm sure if you want these two they look
- 1:14:20fantastic. Yeah, cool looking figures, but
- 1:14:23not for me. Yeah.
- 1:14:25Archangel. There's a better version of him,
- 1:14:29the one that in my eyes the one they released previously is
- 1:14:31better. Yeah, this feels.
- 1:14:33The wings are better than that other one, aren't they?
- 1:14:35Yeah, yeah, this looks like a like a hate say, but a child's
- 1:14:40toy version of it. Yeah.
- 1:14:41And it's not. And it, you know what it is, is
- 1:14:43fine. But it compared to the previous
- 1:14:44one, it's yeah, Yeah, agreed. OK.
- 1:14:49And then, all right, we move on Onslaught.
- 1:14:57I think this is probably just reuse of the BAFF isn't it?
- 1:15:00That they did, which is cool looking, but Onslaught?
- 1:15:04It's not a part of X-Men that I ever read about Got.
- 1:15:08Involved, you know, this is more of a deep dive sort of X-Men
- 1:15:11character, isn't it? But then people, you know, if
- 1:15:13you couldn't find the bath parts, you can now get it as one
- 1:15:15figure. Yeah.
- 1:15:17In that respect, it's pretty funny looking.
- 1:15:19Yeah. Not for me, but cool.
- 1:15:22Then we got Punisher Mick. So this is cool looking figure,
- 1:15:29but I know about it. Yeah, it looks really good.
- 1:15:31I it's not something I'd ever want, but it looks really cool.
- 1:15:34Same. If I was going to get Punisher,
- 1:15:36I'd want Punisher just as him in the way, you know, Frank Castle
- 1:15:41on his own with his guns. This is a bit much for me.
- 1:15:45But you look, it's a cool figure, cool looking figure for
- 1:15:49what it is. Got you right SH figure outs.
- 1:15:54So then they have a couple of Yeah, Spider man I'm.
- 1:16:01Pretty sure they've taken one of my drawings to use spider man.
- 1:16:05And the shape of him as well. He's weird.
- 1:16:07So. He's huge.
- 1:16:10Wolverine and Spider Man. So there you go.
- 1:16:13Classic looking a game. Reverse these are called though,
- 1:16:17so $100 a pop if that's your thing.
- 1:16:21I mean, the articulation is very good on these.
- 1:16:24Yes, quality is good. So if you collect them, you
- 1:16:27collect them. I think if you're casual but
- 1:16:29this kind of stuff, you're not going to be getting these.
- 1:16:32Usually closer to Mezco size as well, aren't they?
- 1:16:35True 112. Scale or something like that,
- 1:16:37yeah. But yeah, always very good.
- 1:16:41Star Wars. So a bunch of stuff.
- 1:16:43You got a bunch of stormtroopers here in the Vintage collection.
- 1:16:47They all have specific names and kind of, you know, Canon, but
- 1:16:54that's really nerdy stuff, so. I've always been quite critical
- 1:16:57of vintage and black series, but they're stepping it up.
- 1:17:01It's all looking really good. Yeah, well, definitely.
- 1:17:05I suppose they have to learn over time, yeah.
- 1:17:09Mandalorian and Grogu in the Vintage collection here.
- 1:17:13Yeah, the most tempting is these stuff.
- 1:17:15Beautiful. Yeah, the current backs, look at
- 1:17:19that. Yeah, IG11.
- 1:17:22With a little touch of a paint from the series, yeah, though.
- 1:17:27These are all from The Mandalorian.
- 1:17:28Although that one's The Mandalorian but.
- 1:17:30At that driver. It's exciting more for the what
- 1:17:34it could mean for the film. So these I was going to say.
- 1:17:36These are from the film I presume.
- 1:17:37These are from the film That one.
- 1:17:39Yes, the Mandalorian series. I don't remember having that
- 1:17:42much colour in them from the series.
- 1:17:45Well, I think it was a second one.
- 1:17:47So there was one of those hunter droids initially and then I
- 1:17:50think was another one. Maybe.
- 1:17:52I think it was a bit more colourful in in a later series,
- 1:17:55yeah. Possibly, but at that driver
- 1:17:57fairly classic look for him. I don't see much difference
- 1:18:00between what I've seen before and him I'm.
- 1:18:03Afford seeing another there in the film.
- 1:18:04Yeah, is. That a snow trooper.
- 1:18:07Yeah, yes. No, Trooper.
- 1:18:09I love my favourite as a kid. Yeah, I love snow troopers as
- 1:18:12well. Yeah, and the Imperial Remnant
- 1:18:1780 or T so also from the film. So there's definitely going to
- 1:18:22be some snow. Battles there is.
- 1:18:25Hmm. Yeah, it'll throwback to The
- 1:18:27Empire Strikes Back. If you like Ethernet 3/4 still
- 1:18:30these are great looking. Figures, brilliant figures at
- 1:18:33the standard of these is really good.
- 1:18:36And then we got some black series.
- 1:18:39I don't know the names of these characters, so if anyone.
- 1:18:42Most of them are from Mandalorian and Grogu anyway.
- 1:18:45OK, Sigourney Weaver. Yeah.
- 1:18:47Sigourney Weaver in. Pilot.
- 1:18:50Is OK. This is an ATAT.
- 1:18:53Yeah, looking really good. So that that might be Sigourney
- 1:18:56Weaver is a. It is Sigourney Weaver.
- 1:18:58She's she got a named character. Yeah, yeah, well, Sigourney
- 1:19:01Weaver is going to be more relevant to us until she's.
- 1:19:04Hunting the remnants of the Imperium.
- 1:19:09Ah, OK, yeah. There's a snow trooper.
- 1:19:14Looking really good as well. There's a storm trooper with the
- 1:19:18little black leather shoulder pad, which is some sort of A
- 1:19:24rank. As you guys said, they've
- 1:19:27definitely, you can clearly see them improve the quality, Yeah.
- 1:19:30It's were they the desert ones? He looks like he's got a bit of
- 1:19:33desert dust, so, you know, an orangey sort.
- 1:19:36Of yeah, it does look like but it could be the lighting, who
- 1:19:39knows? But yeah, I know.
- 1:19:40I think more likely that it's subtle wash.
- 1:19:44This is the black series Mandalorian Grogu.
- 1:19:49So if you've you don't have one and you or you want the most up
- 1:19:52to date one, I've got a colour. Great.
- 1:19:56But I really like the weapons and backpack that with this one.
- 1:20:02There you go. Yeah, go for some cool
- 1:20:05accessories. If they're bigger, you could put
- 1:20:07them in your cosmic chef. Just pretend.
- 1:20:10Yeah, right. Masters of the Universe, just a
- 1:20:15quick run through. We've seen these before.
- 1:20:17More different shots, but you've got T like this is all the
- 1:20:21Master Universe Chronicles line. So the replacement from Master
- 1:20:26Verse the collector apparently. Not a replacement.
- 1:20:29They're both versus going on hiatus for a for a little while.
- 1:20:34That's a real hedge your bets, isn't it?
- 1:20:36Well, if this all goes down the pan, we'll go back to master
- 1:20:40verse and just get you suckers the small amount.
- 1:20:42But if we can manage to sucker in other people with this bigger
- 1:20:45movie line, then we'll keep this one going.
- 1:20:48OK. And our dealer from the movie
- 1:20:51Try clubs from the movie. Trap drill.
- 1:20:54I'm really liking the designs, to be honest.
- 1:20:58Yeah. Looks a bit better in this
- 1:21:00lighting. I think the lighting has given
- 1:21:02her face a bit more depth. Than although when?
- 1:21:05You see it under the the studio lights of the glamour shaft.
- 1:21:09Skeletor I love. Yeah, I think I have to get
- 1:21:12Skeletor and he man from this movie for sure.
- 1:21:15Maybe the battle chat? With them, haven't they the
- 1:21:17designs? Amazing.
- 1:21:21And then you see the package. So yeah.
- 1:21:26Cool. Really good playmates.
- 1:21:30Godzilla. OK, can we just.
- 1:21:33They're bunkers. Have you got the examples of
- 1:21:37the? No, I missed them.
- 1:21:39Yeah. OK.
- 1:21:40I'm just going to say I think I like the what looks almost like
- 1:21:43Origins, but it's kind of being put out there as the kids line.
- 1:21:46I might like it even more than the Chronicles figures, right?
- 1:21:52Yeah, yeah, I was going to put them in, but I thought they're
- 1:21:54not collector and they're very similar.
- 1:21:56So I was actually until I zoomed in and saw there was a bit of
- 1:22:00detail missing. I wasn't sure, umm, Playmates
- 1:22:04Godzilla. So wave 2 and this wave one on
- 1:22:07this for sure. You probably didn't, but they
- 1:22:11weren't. I think they're these are your
- 1:22:13door and all. That it's just weird, yeah.
- 1:22:17Not for me. These are for.
- 1:22:19Wow they must be weird if Miles say no to a team.
- 1:22:22Deep in the weeds, people. And then Power Rangers times
- 1:22:27Godzilla. I think these work better than
- 1:22:30the other ones, but again, yeah, no, not something I'd bother.
- 1:22:33Look at that punkers Pinker. The Pink Rangers Quite.
- 1:22:38Good. Yeah, the kind of bug eyedness
- 1:22:40of it is cool. Yeah.
- 1:22:42New Jack, Super Mario Galaxy. So there's a Mario Galaxy movie.
- 1:22:46I actually played that game a number of years ago now pretty
- 1:22:51good on the on the Nintendo, I guess Wii or something back then
- 1:22:56and yeah these are really cool looking figures quite big
- 1:23:03junkie. If you want a representation on
- 1:23:07your chef, you see them there. So you got you got Mario, you
- 1:23:12got Yoshi. Yoshi is apparently a big part
- 1:23:14in this movie, which is the big sound bunk because yeah, she
- 1:23:16wasn't in the the last one. Yeah.
- 1:23:19She's awesome. Bowser Junior there as well, and
- 1:23:22then Bowser Junior with the that kind of flying thing that he's
- 1:23:27in, right? McFarland, DC.
- 1:23:33Pretty sweet here, Joker. Yeah.
- 1:23:36Yeah, he's Ledger 1, isn't it? Yeah.
- 1:23:39And this is the Superman from the most recent movie.
- 1:23:42Is it a generic Superman? I think it might just be a
- 1:23:47generic Superman. Yeah, The Dark Knight Joker is
- 1:23:52really looking good. The.
- 1:23:53Face sculpt actually looks really good on it.
- 1:23:57I saw they showed off the original is Christopher Reeve
- 1:24:03Superman as well recently in the face sculpt on.
- 1:24:05That was really good considering some of them have been awful.
- 1:24:09They did. Last few have looked really
- 1:24:11good, yeah. Interesting.
- 1:24:15Then we got the animated series here.
- 1:24:20These are still cool. Yeah.
- 1:24:22I, I decided to go with the more traditional sort of Batman
- 1:24:27figures from McFarlane in the end.
- 1:24:29But these, these look great. Yeah.
- 1:24:35And then they're called one of these mods or something.
- 1:24:42These are more like statues. Yeah.
- 1:24:44Yeah. You got some busts here.
- 1:24:49Red Hood as real Batman armour. Yeah.
- 1:24:54That these are one of those things that like we talked about
- 1:24:57before, if I had silly money, I'd probably collect the busts
- 1:25:00of of a few things. That the Batman, definitely.
- 1:25:04And then these are the smaller figures here, Rich, what are
- 1:25:06these? I'm not sure what the line's
- 1:25:08called, but we'll be buying them.
- 1:25:10I love these, presuming they're not too expensive.
- 1:25:13Yeah, these are like, I suppose 2/3 inch little manchettes or.
- 1:25:23Something line box. Based on the fact that there's
- 1:25:26different, I think they are Batman.
- 1:25:28Oh, that's annoying, isn't? It I think I might know where
- 1:25:30those designs come from too. Let me have a look.
- 1:25:34Yeah, So there. Yeah, Mystery figures.
- 1:25:35There you go. Yeah, these are the ones you
- 1:25:39like best. Here this.
- 1:25:41This yes, the yeah. Manbat, Mr Freeze and Bane.
- 1:25:50I love them. I presume they're not too
- 1:25:53expensive. I will 100% be buying these.
- 1:25:57You guys know about my superhero squad love.
- 1:25:59So this is, this is better quality, obviously.
- 1:26:01But yeah. Yeah, wouldn't be as
- 1:26:03articulated. NECA, Batman Returns.
- 1:26:06So these are kind of cloth figures.
- 1:26:09I don't know if they're Mesco level, but Mesco type.
- 1:26:12And I think this is the only way NECA can do Batman figures or
- 1:26:18they have some sort of a licence for for Batman in this way they
- 1:26:24look. Great.
- 1:26:25Like these? Yeah.
- 1:26:26Very tempted, yeah. Might be because I know the
- 1:26:30Mesco Bat 89 Batman was great but is people say is costume is
- 1:26:38kind of falling apart yeah after time and she's.
- 1:26:42Yeah, I didn't buy him because immediately just saw a little
- 1:26:46rubber costume and thought there's no way it's not gonna
- 1:26:50deteriorate. So Batman, Catwoman and Penguin
- 1:26:53here from Batman Returns, right? Mattel Street Fighter.
- 1:27:01Well, it's yeah. This explains This explains
- 1:27:04where the Street Fighter licence was because we were like
- 1:27:06machines, got it, What the hell? Mattel, WWE Street Fighter, is
- 1:27:10it? Yeah.
- 1:27:12So you got Cigar can? I'm not.
- 1:27:15I don't know anything about the wrestlers.
- 1:27:16It's I think. Is it Batista?
- 1:27:19Yeah, that's it. That's it.
- 1:27:20Yeah, Batista. Batista, sorry, yeah.
- 1:27:24Ken Ken is Ric Flair. Is Blanca.
- 1:27:27I know that as. Blanket Ultimate Warrior.
- 1:27:30It's Ultimate Warrior. Ultimate Warrior.
- 1:27:31OK, sorry. I can't tell who is it Bianca
- 1:27:37Bellaire as Cammy? You got E Honda, you got Kyle.
- 1:27:44Yokozuna E Honda and John Cena Gyle.
- 1:27:49But John Cena guy. Was quite cool in package.
- 1:27:53Rey Mysterio Ryu. Yeah, that's it.
- 1:27:58And it was this as a wrong bison.
- 1:28:01Bison. That's a terrible thing that
- 1:28:04just looks very camp. Premium DNA.
- 1:28:11Our old friends megalopolis video game figures.
- 1:28:14Revenge of shinobi. I mean, I love the original
- 1:28:16shinobi. Maybe buy it from Aliexpress in
- 1:28:20a few years time. Yeah.
- 1:28:26And then so these are three Contra figures.
- 1:28:29Apparently Eric Miller painted the prototypes of these Contra
- 1:28:32figures, commenting on them today somewhere.
- 1:28:36So, but he said these aren't these prototypes, these are
- 1:28:39actually factory samples. But I think the price of these
- 1:28:44Contra figures is something like £170 for the 2 pack dollars.
- 1:28:51So you don't. Really want it.
- 1:28:54You got a this is niche stuff and who's this guy here these.
- 1:29:01No, I don't even have. I did see them like when they
- 1:29:04were advertising him and I don't know who it is *.
- 1:29:08Trek. Does anyone?
- 1:29:09Is anyone? It's Star Trek.
- 1:29:10Do we need to go through these? The sales?
- 1:29:12Star Trek. So yeah, so this is I watched
- 1:29:16the the Pixel Dam video, so I've got a few more details.
- 1:29:19So the left hand picture there is tell you what.
- 1:29:23You give us the details and I'll flick through the pictures for
- 1:29:26OK you're watching. So the picture that's looking
- 1:29:28now, there's a hollow, Oh God, what's called the Hollow suite.
- 1:29:32Yes, yeah, yeah. The first time that it's been
- 1:29:35done in 1112 scale. So that's a cool thing that
- 1:29:38comes with it. And then there's Wolf and
- 1:29:40Geordie in there. British naval outfits.
- 1:29:43I don't know why anyone would want those, but they're there as
- 1:29:46well. There was an animated series
- 1:29:47figure. It sounds like the guy who from
- 1:29:51NASA wants them because he's doing the whole crew in the
- 1:29:54Yeah, I thought the animated figure looked really good
- 1:29:57actually and felt like it might just about work with cosmic or
- 1:30:03other things. But this is this is the line
- 1:30:06that basically they had initial troubles with the likenesses and
- 1:30:10stuff like that, was it? They did, yeah.
- 1:30:12So they they received the first versions and it looked like
- 1:30:15they're all melted. Yeah, they hadn't melted, but it
- 1:30:18looked, that's what the faces looked like.
- 1:30:19They melted and then dried again sort of things.
- 1:30:21So they just recalled them all and redone them.
- 1:30:24And the new ones look really good.
- 1:30:26OK, this this is wave 5. It's a wave three.
- 1:30:29Yes, wave 3. And this is all the original.
- 1:30:32Isn't it? Crew, so there's no like weird Z
- 1:30:36list characters and that sort of stuff.
- 1:30:37It's just the crew. So I'll be getting this way and
- 1:30:42it comes there with part of the Enterprise deck.
- 1:30:45And they were showing a video or still of it and I've got to send
- 1:30:49it to you, John. They're connectable pieces.
- 1:30:51So each piece will come with a figure and then you can build
- 1:30:55basically the the Enterprise deck.
- 1:30:59Right. So.
- 1:31:02I assume this will be painted. It will they literally I think
- 1:31:05we got it that day or something from the the designer.
- 1:31:08So yeah. So yeah, we've got.
- 1:31:13You've got Hora and Romulan Commander there again from the
- 1:31:16Original series, and then you've got the earlier series with Wild
- 1:31:20and Wacky. So there's Kirk from Generations
- 1:31:25and he comes with his horse, obviously.
- 1:31:27Why wouldn't you want Captain Kirk with HORSE?
- 1:31:30You've got Nog from Deep Space 9.
- 1:31:31If they do a full Deep Space Nine, yeah, I might get him in
- 1:31:34just in case you do the rest of these Space 9, because that's my
- 1:31:35favourite one of the series. You've got a Jane wave, like,
- 1:31:41yeah, it's like you got to pull from Enterprise.
- 1:31:46I was never a big fan of Enterprise.
- 1:31:47So that's in there. And she looks weird.
- 1:31:50The thing of the facial thing of her was weird.
- 1:31:54Then there's a move, a couple of movie characters.
- 1:31:56Again, I'm not interested in the movie ones, I just want the
- 1:31:58series. Yeah, Valeris is the name there.
- 1:32:01Yeah, it's Kim Cattrall. Yeah.
- 1:32:05Star Trek, Yes, right. Yeah, which is actually one of
- 1:32:08my favourites. I do like the film, but I've got
- 1:32:10no interest in. Yeah, and getting our character
- 1:32:12Carol and Marcus the. Yes.
- 1:32:15And she comes with different arms.
- 1:32:16So they were saying you could take that coat off, so the blue
- 1:32:19underneath and just pop those blue arms on and then you've got
- 1:32:21a completely different look for. Right, this one over the right
- 1:32:26here then. No idea.
- 1:32:28It's Val Kris, right? Apparently no.
- 1:32:31That's possibly betraying my lack of knowledge, but I have no
- 1:32:35idea. That cool Looking bigger?
- 1:32:36No idea. And.
- 1:32:38Then we. Have.
- 1:32:39And then these are the ones. Yeah.
- 1:32:40So again, you've got a couple of characters from The Next
- 1:32:42Generation episodes and the good episodes.
- 1:32:45But again, why you'd start off with these, I have no idea at
- 1:32:48all. It's very strange.
- 1:32:51Yeah, so you got Captain James T Kirk in Romulan disguise here.
- 1:32:56That's an exclusive Peter Preston, and you the exclusive
- 1:33:01Rachel Garnett. Yes.
- 1:33:03So Rachel Garnett was the captain who came into the future
- 1:33:09in one of the Next Generation episodes.
- 1:33:11Very good episode. And then the other guy, neck on
- 1:33:15the right hand side to the other captain, is the guy that took
- 1:33:18over the Enterprise when Picard went on an undercover mission
- 1:33:23for a couple of episodes. Again, the good character.
- 1:33:27Again, Wyun, Second one across there, Deep space 9 character
- 1:33:32again. I'll probably get him just in
- 1:33:33case I do the rest of the deep space line line.
- 1:33:36Then there's Archie from Enterprise, Sulu from one of the
- 1:33:38films, and an Elix Tuvok Cross from Voyager against random
- 1:33:46stuff. Right, that's Star Trek and then
- 1:33:50McDonald's. Thanks.
- 1:33:54I'd say this is niche, but they'll probably sell really,
- 1:33:56really well. Yeah, because the nostalgia
- 1:33:59slide of it. Yeah, so it's the hamburger.
- 1:34:03It's Birdie, the early bird costume figure, and the ultimate
- 1:34:09grimace. Say the the 2 two of them are
- 1:34:15like these little kids in the costumes.
- 1:34:17Aren't they the Halloween costumes?
- 1:34:19And then is grimace for some? Reason randomly do we get Ronald
- 1:34:24McDonald at any point or? You've got too.
- 1:34:27Surely, I guess that's why they're in the back is because
- 1:34:30they're. Yeah, they're they're.
- 1:34:33I think it's right with him and you.
- 1:34:35And that is pretty much it from Toy Fair.
- 1:34:41Yeah, good job, all right. Lots of cool stuff.
- 1:34:45More I think more stuff at Toy Fair than you normally see.
- 1:34:47I think there were quite a few reveals.
- 1:34:48And 1st, I'm using the physical figures that you might have only
- 1:34:51seen rendering for and that sort.
- 1:34:52And I think that's why we we bothered to do it this year in
- 1:34:56detail because there was, there was a lot of cool stuff and it
- 1:34:59was fun and I had. A feeling that we didn't include
- 1:35:03so. I have a feeling the reason you
- 1:35:05have Rich on the podcast this week's folks is because despite
- 1:35:08his aches and pains, he wanted to push through because he
- 1:35:12wanted to go through all these figures.
- 1:35:14Basically, yes. If it was just whining about the
- 1:35:20the legendary warrior, he probably would have left it to
- 1:35:22me and I'm. Sure, I would have still made
- 1:35:24it, but it. Might be very good.
- 1:35:28And well, next week we'll be all eh RPG excitement full of it.
- 1:35:34And so thanks for listening, watching the show.
- 1:35:37Thanks for sharing it, thanks for commenting, liking.
