  Now let's get to this week's show.
• 0:23
  My wallet is sobbing. I can hear it.
• 0:26
  I can hear it in the hall. Now it is breaking down crying.
• 0:35
  It turns out that Attila the arrogant so and so he's got a
• 0:39
  fake hammer. Oh.
• 0:41
  A fake? Whoa.
• 0:43
  As I say, Dick. So welcome to episode 65 of the
• 0:54
  Early Agents Podcast, and this week we're going to dive deeper
• 0:58
  into version twos. What version twos?
• 1:01
  We'd like to come up once we think are going to come.
• 1:04
  And we're going to try and take a hand at Predict predicting the
• 1:09
  next figure, Obscura, which we think, judging by the way things
• 1:13
  have been done over the last while, it might be pretty soon
• 1:17
  that we see a figure Obscura coming.
• 1:19
  So again, no inside info at all. We are the Uranus podcast.
• 1:23
  We haven't got a clue. So this is purely speculation.
• 1:30
  And that is Malcolm Kennedy, one of my Co hosts.
• 1:33
  How are you, Matt? I am all good.
• 1:36
  Thank you. Yeah, have the kids stop
• 1:38
  screaming outside. The occasional bit of noise.
• 1:42
  It's all good to tell. Good for.
• 1:43
  Throwing a ball at my window. Yes.
• 1:45
  Oh, Oh yeah. To be the cranky old man, Yeah.
• 1:49
  That was the game was starting all up, my bathroom window and.
• 1:52
  Oh, no. OK, OK.
• 1:54
  No, if it was on purpose, then that's not good.
• 1:56
  Yeah, it was just an accident. Yeah, we used to.
• 1:59
  I feel still feel like it's only yesterday I was the guy doing
• 2:02
  the kick in the ball, but now yeah, and Rich who are.
• 2:08
  You. I am tickety.
• 2:09
  Boo. Yeah.
• 2:11
  This is the gerbil. The gerbil's still healthy.
• 2:16
  Good. That's great to hear.
• 2:16
  Some may say a little too healthy.
• 2:18
  There's a bit of a tub going on there.
• 2:20
  It has to be. I think he's come for eating,
• 2:21
  having lost his his butt. Yeah, I can imagine, of course.
• 2:24
  And I suppose you've had to reduce the amount of food.
• 2:28
  Quite dramatically, because he really is a little fat.
• 2:30
  So and so, OK, it's like Kerry picked him up with my wife and
• 2:33
  she was just like, look at the rolls of fat around his neck.
• 2:36
  Oh my God, it's like a hamster, not a gerbil.
• 2:39
  So yes. So his food is being cut right
• 2:41
  back. Oh yeah.
• 2:43
  It's like everyone, I think everyone that follows our show
• 2:45
  knows I have cats and we have 4. And I'm kind of so happy that
• 2:49
  the weather is getting better because there's less in the in
• 2:52
  the cat box because during the midwinter it's like, you know,
• 2:55
  it's a rough station, empty in the cat boxes.
• 2:58
  Every day there's three cat boxes, you know, down in the
• 3:01
  basement. So we don't have to at least
• 3:02
  suffer them during the day, so to speak.
• 3:05
  But yeah, yeah, not fun, not fun.
• 3:08
  So yeah, they can go outside, you know, of course, not in
• 3:11
  other people's gardens, but you know, find somewhere under the
• 3:15
  hedges or something, nobody's going to care about that.
• 3:20
  And. Grateful anyway.
• 3:22
  Exactly. It's biodegradable songs.
• 3:26
  I don't have to touch it in in the meantime or accidentally
• 3:30
  touch it, although I don't do much gardening, let's be honest,
• 3:32
  that's more my wife's hobby. So yeah.
• 3:36
  I made the mistake during down the garden barefoot the other
• 3:38
  day and I came back in and I suddenly went, what is that?
• 3:41
  And looked down and I'd suddenly let the pigeon poo.
• 3:43
  Oh so my bare feet were covered in pigeon poo.
• 3:46
  So just. Like, it's like, do you ever,
• 3:50
  Did you ever have a bird's poo on you like accident?
• 3:55
  I have once, yeah. Who's on the way to work
• 3:57
  conference and it shouted down me at the stake so so that was
• 4:01
  fun. So I was trying to wipe my
• 4:02
  shirt, like going, oh brilliant, here we go.
• 4:04
  And you had to continue about your day.
• 4:05
  You had to. Continue.
• 4:06
  There's no going home to get changed.
• 4:08
  It was. Supposed to be good luck,
• 4:09
  although I don't see how. Somebody.
• 4:12
  Yeah. It's that's a most.
• 4:13
  Ridiculous statement. Ever.
• 4:15
  Yeah, it is. And I Oh yeah, I had a very fun
• 4:20
  thing this week. I had an injection in my
• 4:23
  shoulder because they finally found out where the pain in my
• 4:26
  shoulder was coming from. And when I'm getting a pain down
• 4:29
  my arm and why I have been kind of haven't been able to play
• 4:32
  golf or anything like that. And when I lift things at a
• 4:35
  certain angle, they suddenly lose power.
• 4:37
  So it's the joint right up here in the top of my shoulder, kind
• 4:41
  of at the front, even though the pain is at the back.
• 4:44
  So, you know, that's why I had to have an MRI because they
• 4:46
  could be sticking needles all in the back of my shoulder.
• 4:48
  They wouldn't have hit the right spot.
• 4:51
  Yeah. And it's in the joint.
• 4:52
  There was inflamed and it was touching into the muscle and
• 4:55
  then just causing kind of inflammation around it and then
• 4:59
  obviously the nerve gets touched there as well.
• 5:02
  So but thankfully no surge shoulder surgery Internet that
• 5:05
  needed. So that was good.
• 5:07
  My doctor was very happy about that.
• 5:09
  So yeah, so I've had an injection yesterday and he said
• 5:13
  I could be a bit red faced for a couple of days.
• 5:15
  So you know, if I am a little bit red faced, it's not because
• 5:17
  I've been eating too many fried foods and at least that's my
• 5:24
  excuse. And yeah, hopefully might have
• 5:27
  to get a second injection if it's not quite cleared up, but I
• 5:29
  think that should be the hope, most of it.
• 5:31
  So and that's since Legions con last year, this flared up
• 5:34
  basically after the flight back. So yeah, that's just such a
• 5:40
  pain, you know? Yeah.
• 5:42
  But if anyone sees your legions con and you're looking red, very
• 5:44
  red faced this year, obviously you just had another injection.
• 5:47
  It's nothing to do with the proximity of the Irish bar.
• 5:50
  Or Rich has just stabbed me for annoying them in the room.
• 5:54
  Kind of flushed up a bit. I've just opened a couple of
• 5:58
  figures just to wind you up when you're just like furious.
• 6:04
  And actually, we do get unwell, so I don't think we even need to
• 6:08
  fake this podcast, which is probably one of the best things
• 6:11
  and cool so. Say yes, we get.
• 6:17
  You're supposed to read it. You're supposed to read it.
• 6:19
  Better than that. Sorry.
• 6:21
  Yeah, this is how well scripted this is.
• 6:23
  Yeah, it's just like that. Yeah.
• 6:25
  When Johnson and then another little thing to announce for our
• 6:28
  patrons. I have the pins so in the baggy
• 6:31
  should take it out in the baggy. Go check out our YouTube if you
• 6:35
  want to see this. Although I have posted this for
• 6:38
  the patrons as well, making lovely bag noises here.
• 6:41
  Everyone loves that. Just trying to do an impression
• 6:43
  of bridge. So there they are.
• 6:45
  I've gone. We've gone with the black
• 6:47
  background. It's a kind of a gold metallic
• 6:50
  with white and yellow lettering for the words.
• 6:54
  And then it's kind of this goldish metallic on the back
• 6:56
  with the QR code. That still doesn't quite work,
• 6:59
  but I wasn't going to pay more money to get something else on
• 7:04
  the back there because it would have been having to be retooled
• 7:07
  again. So it's like OK with just chats
• 7:10
  around, it's not that important. What you said, that Lady sounds
• 7:13
  quite scary, he said. Don't don't angry, just.
• 7:15
  She's lovely, She's lovely. It's just a little bit of, it's
• 7:18
  a little bit of language barrier in addition to, you know,
• 7:22
  talking to anyone over emails, last messenger, you know, and
• 7:27
  she has a time difference obviously to US of eight hours.
• 7:31
  So you kind of get the messages and then suddenly they stop and
• 7:34
  then eight hours later you have to try and pick up the
• 7:36
  conversation again and they're talking about terms that you
• 7:40
  don't really understand, like electroplating.
• 7:42
  And I'm like, does that cost more?
• 7:44
  No. OK.
• 7:45
  Well, let's see if that, you know, because I was talking
• 7:48
  about getting the metallic effect, you know and obviously
• 7:51
  that's how they do the metallic effect.
• 7:52
  So yeah, so anyway got there in the end, but you know, as it
• 7:58
  wasn't a huge time pressure on these, but yeah, we'll try and
• 8:01
  get them out. I would imagine the listeners
• 8:06
  this side of the Atlantic might get them a little bit earlier
• 8:08
  than the others. So that's what we see.
• 8:10
  I'm probably going to try and hook up with somebody in the
• 8:14
  States to ship them all to and get them to ship, UH to our
• 8:19
  listeners around America because uh, I think shipping a small
• 8:24
  envelope will cost a lot from here compared to UH there.
• 8:28
  So yeah, let's see what we can do with that.
• 8:32
  And obviously Rich and Mal will distribute to our few UK viewers
• 8:35
  and I will do Europa. So anyway, enough of the
• 8:39
  logistics. Did you boys see UH Legions
• 8:42
  lounge this week where they had this UH fun show, I think the
• 8:45
  7th. Let me say yes, but I've
• 8:48
  forgotten what they discussed. You haven't caught up yet.
• 8:51
  You know you. You're not.
• 8:52
  We're not looking. At watching your boys don't.
• 8:54
  Worry we're not a. Lot of content.
• 8:56
  Yeah, exactly. It's hard to keep up, but we
• 8:59
  understand that ourselves with our show, so they do.
• 9:01
  Everyone needs to. Realizes I've been watching a
• 9:04
  lot of Stargate SG-1 the last few weeks, so everything else in
• 9:09
  my life, family, everything, has to fit around the XG one
• 9:12
  episodes, so. If anyone of our patrons wants
• 9:16
  us to do a Stargate SG-1 Patron episode where Rich just educates
• 9:21
  me about it, feel free to drop a message and we'll see what we
• 9:27
  can do in that. Right, Rich.
• 9:29
  No problem at all. I'm 3/4 the way through through
• 9:32
  Series 9 so. Yeah, there you go.
• 9:33
  So I'll just, it'll just be wind him up and let him go.
• 9:37
  We can ask. I'll try and find the dumbest
• 9:38
  questions to ask you like, you know, so who's the main
• 9:42
  character, right. So they did a draft, which I
• 9:47
  think, Rich, you are very familiar with the whole draft
• 9:49
  thing because you're big into your NFL and I don't know if you
• 9:53
  play fantasy football in the American sense of it.
• 9:57
  I don't. I play in the UK.
• 9:59
  Science I don't think or not and.
• 10:00
  Apparently they they also do, or at least I think most of it's
• 10:04
  online now. But previously used to be get a
• 10:07
  bunch of friends over and you'd have a draft kind of where
• 10:10
  everyone would kind of write it down on a sheet and stuff.
• 10:12
  So it is a big traditional thing and they have divided all the
• 10:18
  all the basically positions. They've met a kind of a team.
• 10:22
  So they've done a leader, a mount, a weapon, a right hand
• 10:25
  man, a fighter, a thief, a mage, muscle troop and spirit.
• 10:28
  And then they took turns in picking them and obviously if
• 10:33
  one is picked, you can't pick it.
• 10:34
  So you know, a lot of fun. They had a great show.
• 10:37
  And I just wanted to bring up one little thing about our
• 10:39
  friend Trevor, which was that he's not too happy every time he
• 10:45
  listens to our intro. And I know this because he has
• 10:48
  mentioned it to us and you know, all in good fun.
• 10:50
  You know, he's not going to hold it too much against this.
• 10:52
  You know, it's a funny quote from the show.
• 10:54
  You know, I said, Trevor, you go back to the show and get me a
• 10:56
  couple of more funny quotes. Could be hard to come by and and
• 11:01
  I'll throw it in there instead but you know that never
• 11:04
  happened. So we're stuck with you know our
• 11:06
  slagging off of Attila which is all good.
• 11:09
  But Trevor picked Atlas as his leader.
• 11:13
  I mean what do we have to say about that?
• 11:15
  I mean, Atlas is basically the, you know, he's a mortal enemy
• 11:19
  now of. Attila but it's good that he's
• 11:21
  admitted that he is better. Yeah.
• 11:25
  Which is which? Is really like you know it's
• 11:27
  really ramen our point home. You know about Tiller basically.
• 11:31
  And then he actually in the in the kind of going backwards and
• 11:36
  forwards about who he picked. He actually was going to pick
• 11:38
  our there first which is the direct opponent of Dilla.
• 11:44
  So yeah, and then falling right in line with our fake hammer
• 11:50
  theory. Slash, not, not a theory.
• 11:54
  He picked the Heaven's Brand sword.
• 11:55
  So, you know, yeah. There you go again, admitting
• 11:59
  it's a fake hammer and that's all there is to it.
• 12:02
  It's useless. A bit like Attila, yeah.
• 12:12
  Correct. About, let's be honest.
• 12:14
  And then his favorite, I think out of the army of the Odysseus
• 12:19
  when I remember him talking about it before, and maybe even
• 12:21
  talked to when he was on with us.
• 12:23
  One of the times is Adriana, and yet he picked Magnus.
• 12:28
  He got a bit of stick for that from Curtis, yeah, yeah.
• 12:32
  And I mean proper order Curtis. So basically he's picked
• 12:36
  Adriana's underling and in turn has admitted that Jacqueline
• 12:41
  Magnus is better. So I think he's closed there.
• 12:44
  On Trevor, you can move along, yeah.
• 12:47
  He's outed himself. Yeah, it's like Rich and he's
• 12:51
  two point O bodies. Yeah.
• 12:57
  So there you go Trevor. We would, we will definitely
• 13:00
  won't steal this idea from your wonderful show, but we would
• 13:04
  love to be on someday and do a draft with you.
• 13:08
  So I know six people might be a lot but could be fun.
• 13:15
  But yeah, and I'm sure they'll do it with some other guests as
• 13:18
  well as and goes on so really cool and I hope they maybe try
• 13:23
  and introduce some sort of point system or you know some sort of
• 13:28
  restrictions or budget or something that would be that
• 13:31
  would really level it up. But seems to have gone down
• 13:33
  really well. I've seen a lot of posts in the
• 13:35
  community about this. So all I have to say is, sorry,
• 13:41
  we didn't think of it first time.
• 13:43
  It is a really good idea. Although it is, it is more of an
• 13:47
  American tradition, so they were much always more likely to to
• 13:51
  think of it before us, which is good and.
• 13:54
  Writing good I'm more of a British Irish line and just say
• 13:58
  we'll pick with Allegiance characters to queue, stand by in
• 14:03
  the queue. Who would be the loudest person
• 14:05
  in the queue? Who would be the most annoying
• 14:06
  and the most smelly first? Who would take off and try and
• 14:09
  push in? Yeah, that sort of stuff, you
• 14:10
  know. And then we're talking to it, we
• 14:12
  talking Marks and Spencer's queues or Tesco queues or.
• 14:15
  Yeah, we're talking. To you maybe?
• 14:17
  Yeah, say it was the worst. Oh, that's.
• 14:21
  That's my God Christmas say, OK, I remember being in a
• 14:25
  supermarket once on Christmas Eve.
• 14:26
  I don't know why. I think somebody had forgotten
• 14:28
  something and you literally had to queue to go down the aisle.
• 14:31
  You know, I need some chicken stock.
• 14:33
  It's like, Oh yeah, twenty person queue down the chicken
• 14:37
  stock. I did it.
• 14:39
  I did it once, many moons ago. We went midnight, stroking
• 14:42
  midnight on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day, No Christmas Eve.
• 14:48
  And they opened an M&S Food Place at midnight.
• 14:52
  And yeah, you just couldn't move.
• 14:53
  It was people, like throwing old people out of the way to get
• 14:56
  food. It's madness.
• 14:58
  Yeah, it's crazy. Anyway, let's move on to, UH,
• 15:02
  part one of the main event of the of the show, right?
• 15:12
  So the way that we have divided this up is, uh, we're talking
• 15:16
  about version two figures. So we'll talk about maybe a bit
• 15:19
  about why and I don't know if anyone has any ideas what they'd
• 15:24
  like something to do in the version twos, but we certainly
• 15:26
  will do a little bit of predicting and what we want and
• 15:29
  et cetera, et cetera. And and Mal was the first one
• 15:32
  done with his homework. So he had the structure of what
• 15:36
  what does he think is definitely going to come this year in the
• 15:39
  near future and what does he really want.
• 15:42
  And so we followed that structure for all three of us.
• 15:46
  And as man was first done with his homework, we have his what
• 15:50
  he thinks we'll definitely get this here, and why.
• 15:52
  And some of these surprised me. Mal have to say, not not your
• 15:55
  first one, but the other two. Actually, I was quite surprised.
• 15:59
  They might be a bit of, yeah. I mean they might be a bit sort
• 16:02
  of wide of the mark or I could have been you.
• 16:06
  Know that's not a problem we nobody's going to check.
• 16:10
  That way. But yeah, so also, I feel like
• 16:15
  that's got to be a given for this year.
• 16:18
  It feels like the perfect year for it.
• 16:20
  It's become such an iconic figure in a way, you know it's
• 16:24
  one of the cult as close you get in the little community to a
• 16:28
  cult favorite, you know, and I feel like it's, it's more
• 16:34
  probable than us getting a dragon, quite honestly, this
• 16:37
  year. Yeah.
• 16:39
  And I'd be down with that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 16:42
  Same same and then the other two it was a bit of a wild swing
• 16:47
  based on it was funny that well it feels like it's been a little
• 16:55
  while since we've we've gotten elves again now it's it's sort
• 16:58
  of you know we're the what was it last sort of elves were were
• 17:05
  well they were the War of the Ether Blade elves but before
• 17:08
  that it was the ones in the Elithia and the yeah.
• 17:12
  Wave. No, at least not a Lithia was
• 17:17
  salt. Spiller was the one previous to
• 17:19
  that with the Elf Shadow Elf Ranger.
• 17:24
  That just mean. I just mean getting our body
• 17:26
  characters, OK, any sort of elf characters.
• 17:30
  The Lithia and. Oh, that's right.
• 17:32
  Yeah, we had Artemis and other guys.
• 17:34
  Yeah, Artemis. And it just seemed funny that.
• 17:39
  I know they said they kept it to the more simple ones, you know,
• 17:42
  there was that shared parts and that sort of thing.
• 17:45
  But that's part of the reason I went with these two is because
• 17:48
  they could actually do. They had the Elf Ranger and the
• 17:52
  Elf warrior, and they had the Dark Elf Ranger and the Dark Elf
• 17:55
  Warrior. Yeah, it would make sense that
• 17:58
  then these two could somewhat share parts.
• 18:01
  And in fact, I actually did think they had the same head,
• 18:03
  but they don't. And who were these two then?
• 18:06
  Sorry, yes, this is Malachi, Cinderhorn and Lord Aiden.
• 18:11
  There you go. And they're both.
• 18:12
  Figures. Have, yeah.
• 18:14
  And they're both, if you read their BIOS are quite central
• 18:18
  characters. They've, you know, Lord Aiden
• 18:20
  particularly is the advisor to Artemis.
• 18:26
  Malachi is basically the ruler of the Dark Elves.
• 18:31
  Quite, quite a good, quite a big job, I'd say.
• 18:34
  Yeah, yeah. So yeah it was just putting a
• 18:39
  few things together and and and then as I said whilst I think
• 18:43
  they're quite left field, they actually feel like they'd really
• 18:49
  they did work this year you know and what would what could you do
• 18:54
  to prove them would you keep this what would you do?
• 18:57
  Well both of them, well I mean Malachi is going to be more soft
• 19:01
  goods to fit in with the because he's a member of Poxus Circle of
• 19:06
  Poxus. So again put me a bit more in
• 19:09
  line with the with the recent Wizards, although it being a bit
• 19:15
  more of a warrior as well. You kind of want to keep the
• 19:18
  leather armour, but we're getting some new leather arm or
• 19:21
  aren't we coming out in the Noble Bear wave and and of
• 19:25
  course that's not beyond them, to completely redesign and
• 19:28
  create new parts for version twos and then Lord Aiden, whilst
• 19:36
  again he's a bit more of a warrior elf.
• 19:38
  Perhaps. With him being a bit more regal
• 19:40
  and a bit more, you know, a bit more in that would be in the
• 19:44
  court of sort of the regal court.
• 19:46
  Maybe he could do a few soft goods a bit slightly better,
• 19:49
  soft goods which would differentiate them a bit, whilst
• 19:54
  I could see them sharing parts as I say.
• 19:58
  You could do a better ankles anyway, Isn't that right, Rich
• 20:00
  that? Wouldn't be difficult, let's be
• 20:03
  honest. I had him in the yoga pose on a
• 20:05
  bunch of stones on my display at some stage because he just
• 20:08
  wouldn't stay up. And I thought, well, let's just
• 20:10
  put him chilling out, you know, I figure though.
• 20:13
  Hayden is is riding a stag so. He's no ankles required.
• 20:18
  Yeah, I think the face on these two is the same mall.
• 20:22
  It's just the headdress thing. It's not I.
• 20:25
  That's what I really as well. If you look close, Lord, I'll
• 20:28
  tell you what, the elves in the flock are all miserable buggers
• 20:31
  if you look at their face. Yeah, but Malachi's actually got
• 20:36
  a smirk on his face. Rather than.
• 20:39
  And that's not just the paint. No, no, no.
• 20:42
  I've said look at it. I'm a real girl.
• 20:45
  You've already looked again. Oh, you're right.
• 20:46
  Yeah, you're right. Wow.
• 20:48
  There you go. So.
• 20:50
  That was originally part of my thinking is.
• 20:51
  Not even out there. Same.
• 20:54
  Yeah, right. So yeah, that's my thinking
• 20:57
  behind them. Well, Jeremy let us know for for
• 21:00
  actually wrong but cool. So and more to say about these
• 21:07
  Rich shall we move on to yours and?
• 21:10
  Two of these were in my list as well.
• 21:12
  So yeah, I agree. I was surprised to see more more
• 21:17
  than Otto in your list, actually, of these two, so that
• 21:19
  was interesting to bring me. So here we go.
• 21:23
  So yeah, so I've gone for Otho again.
• 21:28
  Like Mal. I think it's an absolute shoe
• 21:30
  in. It'll be a dereliction of duty,
• 21:33
  dare I say by the horsemen if they don't really.
• 21:35
  So so Bush into this year I will be leading the pitch fork more
• 21:39
  but legions con. No I won't be.
• 21:42
  I'm not that fuss but I I think it will definitely be a A
• 21:45
  release. I still think we get him with a
• 21:48
  with an Herzog version two as well.
• 21:49
  I think Herzog is screaming for an update.
• 21:53
  It's a brilliant, I mean it's a great figure but you can give
• 21:55
  him. I think you've said before John
• 21:57
  like the faction shield maybe? I'd love to see him like a brute
• 22:00
  scale version, or even if he kept him as 1.0 he can give him
• 22:05
  fancier armour. It's a very basic head sculpt.
• 22:09
  Let's let's have a bit more of a cool face sculpt, maybe with a
• 22:13
  scar, you know, everybody loves an awkward scar, That's the way
• 22:17
  to go even maybe, and this would be really cool, like a visor
• 22:24
  that goes up. So you've got an orc helmeted
• 22:25
  head with a visor that goes up as well.
• 22:27
  That'd be cool, yeah. So that that would be good.
• 22:30
  And some sort of big ass, pardon my language weapon.
• 22:35
  So he comes with a sword, which is fine, but let's get let's get
• 22:37
  a club or a Mace, or, yeah, some sort of Grizzly Ork weapon.
• 22:41
  And. I still reckon as a 2 pack that
• 22:43
  would be a possibility, but I think the two choser pretty
• 22:47
  much. Would love if they did them as 2
• 22:49
  packs, you know, to maybe squeeze the most value for us
• 22:54
  and also for them in terms of the pricing.
• 22:57
  So yeah. Yeah, I mean without though I
• 23:00
  don't You need to do. I mean again it's very basic.
• 23:02
  So they'd probably update the soft goods.
• 23:04
  Yeah, I think he'd be, absolutely.
• 23:07
  Crest maybe on the check rather than just a plain like he's got
• 23:10
  at the moment. Didn't we say maybe they might
• 23:12
  do it like Gideon in terms of the soft goods over the?
• 23:17
  Yeah. Armor that.
• 23:19
  Would be a good look, yeah. I mean, they seem to be heading
• 23:20
  down that way now, don't they? So to continue that that would
• 23:24
  definitely be a good. I'd see a bit of moaning though
• 23:26
  if they did too much changes. From people, there's a bit of
• 23:29
  moan they could give out free money to the fans, yeah.
• 23:31
  Oh, yeah, yeah. That's not a reason not to do
• 23:34
  it. I'm just saying, you know.
• 23:36
  Eventually, everyone is the reality.
• 23:38
  They'd look at it and be like, actually, this is really good.
• 23:41
  And to be honest, anyone that wants to recreate the old one,
• 23:44
  you know, just get you have your head sculpt then for for a very
• 23:47
  good price and you can repaint the parts or you know it's very
• 23:54
  easily, it's just the the blue tabard and skirt piece isn't it?
• 23:59
  That's it. I mean realistically, like
• 24:01
  Atlas, Well, that's not true because there's more to Atlas,
• 24:04
  but the head is the most iconic, so it's the most it's.
• 24:09
  The real and rare piece. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 24:11
  You want, they want to whatever they do, they need to do what
• 24:14
  they did with this. Where I was going, remember this
• 24:16
  is like Atlas. Keep it very similar.
• 24:19
  But yeah, enough. Unless they feel it's fine as it
• 24:22
  is. Of course, Of course, yeah.
• 24:26
  Similar reasons to Mal. For Malachi, it's, you know, the
• 24:30
  the Shadow Elves are back. You know, they've they've redone
• 24:33
  runs of of two of them sort of thing.
• 24:35
  So it would make perfect sense to put him in.
• 24:37
  I'd want to see him with a really fancy cloak, not just
• 24:40
  like better soft good cloak, but like fur lined, like a proper
• 24:44
  regal sort of thing that comes across as that sort of arrogant
• 24:50
  so and so sort of thing so. Even like, almost like the
• 24:52
  Father Christmas type soft goods.
• 24:55
  Yeah, something like that. I could absolutely see him
• 24:57
  wearing something like that. And that would work, obviously.
• 24:59
  If they haven't, yeah, I'd. Be making more open, you know.
• 25:03
  Yeah. Don't need the belt maybe or
• 25:05
  something, yeah. I think he got a bigger crown.
• 25:08
  I think his crown at the moment is a bit too elvish.
• 25:10
  I think they might want to go away from that a little bit.
• 25:12
  So maybe some sparkly jewels in there as well.
• 25:16
  I mean, he's got a really good smirky face anyway, but an even
• 25:19
  more evil smoking face. TB would be great, yes?
• 25:23
  Maybe an evil cackle. Maybe one raised eyebrow.
• 25:28
  Or goatee for going. Really going to goatee?
• 25:33
  Twirly with twirly mustache. Yeah, maybe some sort of new
• 25:38
  adornment for top of his staff. So again, he's.
• 25:41
  A staff that you don't have to smash his hand open to.
• 25:45
  That staff will not stay in that hand.
• 25:48
  I was thinking maybe you should hold in the middle there, you
• 25:51
  know, where it gets thinner, but then it's too far down.
• 25:56
  Yeah, then he would stand up. Because in the official picture
• 25:59
  there they they don't have it there, so yeah.
• 26:03
  That was glued in for the official picture, let's be
• 26:05
  honest. Next up is Thord Iron Jaw.
• 26:11
  I think with the dwarf renaissance that we're having at
• 26:13
  the moment, I was debating whether a version two of Thord
• 26:18
  would look out of place with a version.
• 26:20
  The original version of both are being re released as part of All
• 26:25
  Stars. But I know, I think you know,
• 26:26
  just do a cool a cool Ford, go crazy with a beard.
• 26:30
  Let's get more braiding in. You know the dwarf parts.
• 26:35
  If it's if it's going to be a pre-order, then obviously they
• 26:38
  can use the new dwarf parts. Yes, absolutely.
• 26:42
  Or if they've gotten, you know, if they've got them tooled up
• 26:45
  already, they could always maybe release them a little bit
• 26:47
  earlier. Part of this I mean that could
• 26:50
  become con. Some new armored dwarf parts.
• 26:57
  I mean, there's again, again, when we're doing this, they do.
• 27:00
  When they're making their version twos, they do create new
• 27:03
  parts for them, so. And they have a trend now to
• 27:07
  maybe tool some extra stuff when they're tooling.
• 27:11
  Still, you know, new stuff. If they have a space and a tool
• 27:14
  that would otherwise go to waste, rather than wasting the
• 27:18
  big block of metal, they could tool up some stuff that they see
• 27:21
  in the future. So.
• 27:22
  Absolutely. Bit more of a gnarly weapon for
• 27:24
  him too, and some sort of cool dwarf shield.
• 27:28
  I think at the moment the Shields are very, I mean, I know
• 27:31
  there's a new one coming with the wrong sons thing obviously,
• 27:32
  and that's great. But I don't know, maybe some
• 27:35
  sort of really weird shaped shield, although that's probably
• 27:40
  the only character you could use it for.
• 27:41
  But I think that would be that would be good.
• 27:43
  Well, I can't. See with any ocean twos of
• 27:47
  dwarves, these unhelmeted heads and the helmeted head, because I
• 27:52
  think the dwarf heads are so fun when they're in helmeted.
• 27:55
  They sure are, yeah. Yeah, that would be great.
• 27:58
  And as Rich said, I'd be down for, she'd maybe a pure purely
• 28:03
  wooden one. I'd love to see their take on
• 28:05
  like a really kind of wooden shield, you know, even with a
• 28:10
  bit of damage on it or something, you know?
• 28:13
  It might be very specific, but might be worth it for a top tier
• 28:17
  character to yeah. Yeah, absolutely.
• 28:20
  Could he be the figure they give the the Noble Bear?
• 28:24
  I know we've got an equivalent of it, but something a bit more
• 28:28
  like the other Shields but for Noble Bear would would be that.
• 28:33
  Would you have a fancy shield like that there?
• 28:38
  Yeah, maybe not. He's a bit more of a battle.
• 28:40
  Unless his teeth were sharpened on it, he could just use it to
• 28:43
  slash people with the bear open. Bear Max, maybe that.
• 28:46
  Or maybe a battle damaged version of that shield, huh?
• 28:50
  Yeah, yeah, I like that. The next one I'm hoping we don't
• 28:55
  get, but I have a horrible feeling we will, which is Hera
• 28:57
  Serpent Spire. It's I give with one hand.
• 29:01
  I put her on my list. I take with another.
• 29:04
  I tell her. I say that I don't want her.
• 29:06
  Despite my supposed dislike of two point zeros, despite naming
• 29:11
  lots of them as my favorite figures in each wave and
• 29:14
  faction, she's really good figure.
• 29:16
  I don't see the need to to redo her.
• 29:19
  I think it would be a wasted space.
• 29:20
  There's other figures that you could do more with and make them
• 29:23
  much better than the original versions, so I think.
• 29:27
  We should be beneficiary of maybe a soft goods pack.
• 29:31
  She could, you know, if they were to ever do that.
• 29:34
  Yeah. Well, there's weapons pack now.
• 29:36
  I mean, the parks is weapon weapons packs.
• 29:39
  You could definitely get her stuff from there.
• 29:44
  But I think we will make her just purely because she's she's
• 29:46
  a faction leader, isn't she? So I think you're right.
• 29:49
  I I agree 100% with both of them.
• 29:51
  I think perhaps they could improve and make the hair a bit
• 29:54
  articulated or something like that.
• 29:56
  But yeah, I mean the original figure is she's so just a really
• 30:01
  pretty figure. It's, you know, little piece of
• 30:03
  art. It's a great figure and I will
• 30:08
  deny saying that if anyone says it because it's a 2.0 And then
• 30:13
  lastly Asterion, I think they need to and I hope they'd want
• 30:21
  to go brute scale. Oh, yes.
• 30:23
  But the minor source, you know, please, nothing wrong with 1.0
• 30:27
  minor source. I've got half a dozen custom
• 30:29
  ones in in my collection. But bigger is better for minor
• 30:33
  source sort of thing. So you know, brute scale.
• 30:37
  You know, they've got a lot of the parts already sort of thing.
• 30:41
  You could give him the fancy faction shield as well.
• 30:43
  There's no reason why not. Maybe a new axe?
• 30:46
  Like a big beefy axe, but like a newly designed beefy axe I think
• 30:50
  would be great. And now that we've had a chance
• 30:53
  to get the Silverhorn centuries that I think he's the he's the
• 30:57
  leader of, isn't he? So we'll have we'll be able to
• 31:02
  have him with his few extra. If anyone has, like me, got
• 31:07
  maybe two or four of them in the Last Reinforcements, then you'll
• 31:12
  have your Astarian at the front. Awesome.
• 31:15
  Yeah. So I'd love to see him and I
• 31:17
  think, I think there's a very good chance we'll get a big
• 31:20
  it'll be My wallet is sobbing. I.
• 31:24
  Can hear it in the hall now it is breaking down crying.
• 31:28
  I really wouldn't. I really wouldn't mind that body
• 31:31
  in you know the his style body sort of colours and tones in the
• 31:35
  inner a brute scale figure. So that would ask him if we got
• 31:40
  him and Can you imagine that just a huge cow head on.
• 31:43
  Yeah, sculpt. And you like a really angry
• 31:46
  looking cow head or? Yeah.
• 31:48
  And you've also got a great base body for making brute scale
• 31:50
  barbarian. You know, there's loads of great
• 31:52
  custom heads for that. You know that you could, you
• 31:56
  know the companies to start off for them, slightly sized up for
• 31:59
  the brute scales and where you go.
• 32:02
  Yeah, and they've shown me some of the sculpts too, that
• 32:05
  actually they work fine on the Brute.
• 32:07
  They do. It depends on the like.
• 32:08
  Some of the helmets especially seem to work quite well on the
• 32:12
  Brits game, yeah. Yeah.
• 32:14
  So I think we might get a six figure wave.
• 32:17
  Initially I was thinking, oh, we get like it doesn't, it's like,
• 32:19
  no, no, they don't want to outdo the G Con stuff.
• 32:22
  But I think a six figure wave would be small enough they could
• 32:24
  drop it into a gap in the schedule, give us something new
• 32:27
  rather than the All Stars, and yeah, blow our socks off.
• 32:31
  Yeah, I think that's fair because.
• 32:32
  We've got the wave. Yeah.
• 32:35
  Yeah. That's what I suppose that's why
• 32:36
  you've only kind of picked a few.
• 32:38
  But yeah, I think we've generally been getting 2A year
• 32:42
  anyway. So why not give us a wave of six
• 32:47
  or more? Yeah.
• 32:47
  I mean, I think, yeah, I'd love it if they did. 3-2 packs.
• 32:53
  It's funny, isn't it? Because when I was doing the two
• 32:55
  elves in my head, it was like it'd make quite a good two pack,
• 32:58
  because they're sort of the, the count the, you know, the
• 33:00
  opposites of each other in terms of the elves.
• 33:05
  Yeah, but you've got. Yeah, you could have Hera and
• 33:10
  Malachi here, and obviously Otto and Orzock, but the other two,
• 33:16
  they're in good factions, aren't they?
• 33:18
  It could be. It could be a buddy pack.
• 33:20
  Yeah, I'm done with. It's not, it's not an enemy's
• 33:22
  pack, It's it's, you know, drinking pals pack.
• 33:25
  Oh, let's go. In there as well, you know.
• 33:28
  Boom. Done.
• 33:30
  Legions can't drinking buddies pack.
• 33:32
  There you go. Right.
• 33:35
  Shall we move on to mine? And I think there's been a lot
• 33:38
  of crossover. I remember when I put these
• 33:40
  slides together, Rich, I don't mind and I didn't have to take
• 33:43
  too many away. And there we go.
• 33:46
  You see that Otto and Thord and Orzack are in the same place.
• 33:52
  I know when your message, man you did mention Ether on and
• 33:55
  Salona as kind of you were thinking probably going to get
• 33:59
  them. That's why I just put them in
• 34:02
  here. I wasn't sure if you wanted to
• 34:03
  include them in yours. And so I have as I said Otto
• 34:08
  Thord and Urzuk that Rich has covered and I think we agree
• 34:11
  with Sir Galleron is an interesting one.
• 34:15
  I think he's quite, it seems to me from his bio to be an
• 34:19
  important character, which is why I think it's worthwhile them
• 34:24
  revisiting them as a as a version two and giving us an
• 34:27
  alternative head and maybe a slightly different build in the
• 34:31
  armor. With all the new parts they have
• 34:33
  got now, this could. Be a chance, wouldn't it, to get
• 34:37
  that armor color in, which is obviously completely different
• 34:40
  to the one of the picture here because that doesn't represent
• 34:42
  it, but you know, just another cool armor color back in again.
• 34:46
  What sort of an unhelmitted head do you think he'd have?
• 34:48
  Would he be kind of quite mean looking or I'm.
• 34:53
  Trying to remember his bio. What does BIO say?
• 34:59
  Although Sir Galleron is one of Gideon's Heaven, Heaven's
• 35:02
  brand's most notable and heroic allies, there is a subtle
• 35:05
  darkness lurking beneath the surface.
• 35:08
  As a Spearman and standard bearer in the Ethereum army, he
• 35:12
  inevitably seeks to be on the front lines in every battle.
• 35:16
  Galleron is fuelled not only by his innate goodness, but by an
• 35:20
  unquenchable thirst for revenge against those responsible for
• 35:23
  mysterious events in his troubled past.
• 35:26
  So if there's a hint of evil, then clearly a goatee with an
• 35:30
  unhelmeted hair. I'm pointy.
• 35:33
  Goatee evil pointy goatee stare straight away.
• 35:36
  Yeah. Or maybe like a scarred head.
• 35:38
  Maybe missing. Like it it.
• 35:41
  I don't get too Game of Thronesy sort of thing, but you know,
• 35:43
  something's happened in the past where he's like missing part of
• 35:45
  his hair, like the hound, whatever sort of thing.
• 35:47
  And Oh yeah, scarred look at something went completely wrong.
• 35:49
  I'd love, I'd love, you know, bald, but you know around the
• 35:55
  back and sides a bit of hairs. You know that kind of ball.
• 36:00
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 36:01
  It's gonna say rich. But you know, that's combined
• 36:04
  with the goals he would be, would be pretty.
• 36:07
  When you were saying it, I thought you meant.
• 36:09
  For mutton chops, Rich it could be a rich it could be a rich
• 36:11
  Jones Facebook profile tribute. And that's what's so mysterious
• 36:16
  about. With a slightly purple tinge in
• 36:20
  the eyes and the iris of the eyes, that'd be perfect.
• 36:25
  Cool. Yeah.
• 36:26
  So lots of fun we had there with Sir Galleron and like a lot of
• 36:31
  the Ethan characters, great figures in a sucky faction.
• 36:37
  And yeah, so the other two then are heavy hitters.
• 36:41
  Uh. I mean, Ethan is the leader of
• 36:44
  Ethan and Zylonas the leader of Zelena's flock.
• 36:48
  I think that they. I mean ether on.
• 36:50
  The main problem with him is that he's not available.
• 36:53
  And you know as. You look very low, 1234 only.
• 36:59
  And at a price that would be, you know, good for most
• 37:05
  collectors. And as Ilona, well, OK, she
• 37:08
  mightn't be very available now, but she was definitely available
• 37:10
  for much longer than ether on and is more plentiful out there
• 37:13
  and probably still isn't close to the either on level.
• 37:17
  But you know, and she's not a great figure to be honest.
• 37:22
  There's something about her I she's.
• 37:24
  Cool to look at. You know, she's cool to look at
• 37:27
  and she's, I'm delighted to have her, but I didn't get her in my
• 37:30
  original order. I got her in the big bad restock
• 37:33
  very early in because by that stage I'd been reading the lore
• 37:36
  and I was like, OK, I'm really not very smart that I haven't
• 37:41
  picked up the leader of a faction that's kind of
• 37:43
  relatively available, you know? So I was like, right, got to get
• 37:47
  her and yeah, she's cool, but still doesn't really stand out
• 37:54
  compared to she wouldn't see her as the leader.
• 37:56
  When you see her on the show, maybe the horns help, but yeah.
• 38:01
  You know what would work for a John and I've said it before on
• 38:03
  the show swept back battle antler I'll.
• 38:08
  Tell you what, get down with that.
• 38:10
  Literally just pushes a bat and goes bring it, here we go.
• 38:12
  I would love when you get down with that.
• 38:14
  I definitely don't if they, yeah, I mean you could do, you
• 38:18
  could do a customizer job and you know Dremel in the head and
• 38:22
  you know, because those answers are kind of go in with a little,
• 38:25
  it's almost like a little flat kind of piece.
• 38:28
  It's not round. It's kind of flat.
• 38:31
  And you could maybe fill in the current peg and kind of drill
• 38:34
  out one that makes them go back. I don't know how those answers
• 38:37
  would look going back, or even reverse them.
• 38:40
  I don't know how they look backward the wrong way.
• 38:42
  Maybe they look. But I think, yeah, you'd prefer
• 38:45
  the answers to be all a little bit bent backwards, all the
• 38:48
  little individual strands of the wood.
• 38:50
  Yeah. Or the horns or whatever.
• 38:53
  Yeah. So she's great.
• 38:55
  I mean, she comes with, of course, the the silver cord bow,
• 38:59
  which is awesome in a slightly different, uh, paint up to what
• 39:02
  you get with Artemis. Uh, too.
• 39:05
  And so that's sweet. And uh, yeah, you get great
• 39:09
  weapons with the, you get those two.
• 39:11
  Umm, what they like scimitars that kind of go together.
• 39:14
  Yeah. And a nice sword.
• 39:17
  It's again the standard kind of big sword that a lot of figures
• 39:20
  have, like there is up there in the other picture and of course
• 39:24
  you get the the quiver for the Bose, so.
• 39:30
  She's certainly well armed. Yeah, yes, you get a lot of
• 39:33
  stuff. Like a lot of the figures now
• 39:34
  Evan indicate you were not shortchanged accessories
• 39:37
  whatsoever. Consider, I mean OK Erzog's got
• 39:40
  a really cool painted shield there, but he's got the sword
• 39:43
  and alternate head. I mean that's going to be
• 39:46
  there's going to be more than that in a version two toward has
• 39:49
  got what sword pauldrons they were.
• 39:55
  You know that was back when they counted the pauldrons as kind of
• 39:57
  really as the accessories. I know they still do but you
• 40:00
  know nobody cans them now right. We good with the.
• 40:07
  I'm. Sorry.
• 40:09
  Yeah, go, go. Rich, one of you.
• 40:11
  I'd say the one thing I would say is that I don't think we'll
• 40:14
  see Throne and Siloaner this year because I think.
• 40:16
  Oh, interesting. Tell us why, I think.
• 40:18
  They'll bring them out the same time as Lee Odysseus and.
• 40:21
  Oh, you think it'll be in? So I'm sort of the same as that,
• 40:25
  but I think it'll they'll all be in the same year.
• 40:28
  I think they'll lead waves like the Horseman did, but the waves
• 40:33
  will be done in the same format. I think they'll be like the,
• 40:37
  what do you call it, kind of the star character of the wave kind
• 40:40
  of thing. Would that not be the gods, the
• 40:43
  the four kind of good gods? I think that's another thing
• 40:46
  altogether. That's another year of waves.
• 40:53
  I hope that I don't lead waves because that will just mean
• 40:55
  we're getting the same factions against each other, so.
• 40:59
  By by waves, I really just mean, you know, a selection of the
• 41:02
  figures from that. Yeah, I don't necessarily mean
• 41:04
  in the same format as we have had just.
• 41:08
  I wouldn't mind leading leaders. In which case I'm fine lizard
• 41:16
  lizards. Have taken over.
• 41:17
  Silona lizard men that are holy ether on it's just like, yeah,
• 41:21
  there we go. Have you got your Savage
• 41:23
  Crucible Lizards? Not yet.
• 41:27
  They could slightly off, No, they've mine was.
• 41:29
  I was going to say mine was big order.
• 41:31
  There's only 14 figures. I wouldn't say naturally it was
• 41:33
  a big order, but. Did you get all insurance or?
• 41:36
  I went and all in and then a fair few duplicates, mouth
• 41:39
  shaking his face at me. Hey, it was a different time.
• 41:42
  It was a different time, yeah. Anything, anything turning up on
• 41:45
  the Jones 1234 for our listeners?
• 41:49
  Hopefully not because I've got 11 more and keep them more, but
• 41:52
  they decided to split the big orders into smaller parcels.
• 41:56
  So instead of sending all the figures together, I have four
• 41:58
  separate parcels coming my way. Which is crazy quite frankly.
• 42:04
  And it's going to cost me more money because I'll get I'll pay
• 42:07
  slightly less and import VAT, but I'll get hit with a £12.50
• 42:12
  handling fee for the three lots or cop and import fee.
• 42:15
  So that's a bit Fris, I mean, not the end of the world, but a
• 42:17
  little bit frustrating. There's something that happened
• 42:20
  to me. Sorry to but yeah so I set up
• 42:25
  automatic billing on FedEx ages ago if you remember.
• 42:29
  I then had a couple of issues where they were double billing
• 42:31
  me, then this later I had the parcel from Big Bad.
• 42:36
  They haven't billed me automatically.
• 42:41
  I'm still waiting for the bill on my reinforcements order that
• 42:46
  I've received two months ago and I just got the bill for my Pox's
• 42:50
  delivery, which was a month before that.
• 42:52
  So that's how it works. So, yeah, that's well, no,
• 42:55
  that's how they're just slow with the billing.
• 42:58
  Well, they've, they've sent me, you know, they sent me the thing
• 43:01
  going, oh, you've got duties to pay.
• 43:02
  But I didn't pay it because I was like, well, I'll pay it and
• 43:05
  then they'll. Take the money of a centre of
• 43:07
  the bill, yeah. Anyway, sorry Rich, no.
• 43:11
  No, that's fine. I was just going to say from the
• 43:13
  feedback I've seen though so far for Savage Crucible then they're
• 43:16
  going to be throwing themselves off the shelves like the 2.0
• 43:18
  mythics do. So.
• 43:19
  Yeah, there's a bit of Billy from door.
• 43:21
  Claire has a great review today of one of the figures.
• 43:25
  And yeah, I don't like the aesthetic with the double
• 43:28
  shoulders and stuff, but it's personal preference.
• 43:30
  So I can't say that they didn't do anything wrong there.
• 43:34
  I mean, they obviously built a figure that they wanted.
• 43:37
  The toe thing is ridiculous. I don't would not a fan of that
• 43:40
  at all. I do understand that it's good
• 43:43
  for getting in other poses, but I've never had figures to where
• 43:46
  that hasn't been a problem. You know, I'm never still.
• 43:51
  Sorry, Rich, I was. Going to say it's such a small
• 43:53
  joint with the toes, isn't it? That you can't make it strong
• 43:56
  enough to be able to move it and hold a pose, it seems, but
• 43:59
  companies still try. Yeah, and also the most
• 44:03
  interesting thing about the whole thing is the few former
• 44:07
  disgruntled Legions fans who I wonder who paid in their
• 44:10
  conflicts or what the story is. Maybe some, if you DM me, if you
• 44:13
  really want to give me the other side of the story because I'm
• 44:17
  really interested, I don't really care, You know, that's
• 44:19
  your own business. But there is a few buys in that
• 44:21
  group that are just so happy when someone says I'm selling
• 44:24
  legions. Or does anyone want to trade
• 44:26
  Legions against savage crews? Like it's like like it's like a
• 44:29
  victory for them. You know it's a little it's it's
• 44:32
  very sad you know so but you know this is the way the world
• 44:39
  and again shipping notices post this is everywhere.
• 44:41
  This is not allegiance thing. Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely.
• 44:45
  Yeah, yeah. Well if anyone wants to have a
• 44:48
  moan about shipping prices, that's £5 to ship.
• 44:51
  Two figures from about ship, one figure or 10 figures or from
• 44:55
  Savage Cruz websites. And and #3.
• 45:01
  And it's not hard. If you're going to do a live
• 45:04
  stream to promote your toy line basic sound, come on, you know,
• 45:09
  you don't have to have creamy, beautiful, you know,
• 45:12
  professional podcast sound, but, like, not the kind of potato
• 45:17
  stuff that was on their last live streams.
• 45:19
  Awful. And I know somebody coming to
• 45:22
  done it and I know that the guy was like, oh, I'm sorry it was
• 45:25
  me, blah, blah, blah. But like, just don't do it.
• 45:27
  Then don't be on the thing you know.
• 45:31
  Don't bring down the other guys you know, because that's all it
• 45:34
  takes. If one of if one of us has a bad
• 45:36
  connection or a bad sound, it ruins the whole show for
• 45:40
  everyone, no matter what everyone is saying, you know.
• 45:42
  Well, you're a monster, Jones. You just cut.
• 45:44
  Me all out? Yeah, come on.
• 45:46
  It's completely like, yeah, no. It's like we want people to
• 45:50
  listen to us. You know, this is, this is the
• 45:53
  whole purpose of the shows, for people to listen to us.
• 45:55
  You know, like if I want to sell beer, the number one thing I'm
• 45:58
  going to do is if the beer tastes nice, it doesn't matter
• 46:01
  if it's free. If it tastes like absolute
• 46:03
  garbage, people will be like, maybe, you know, just, you know,
• 46:07
  you'll just be selling it to people that are Alcoholics.
• 46:10
  And we don't want that. We want to include everybody.
• 46:13
  And right. So anyway, with that slight
• 46:16
  diversion, are we done with this year for for all of us, Yep.
• 46:22
  What we're thinking now obviously we could get more, we
• 46:25
  could get less, we could get none as we've said before.
• 46:28
  Then we went on to what we think might come soon or you know so
• 46:32
  within the next year or two what what are the other version twos
• 46:35
  that are possibly in the pipeline.
• 46:37
  And 1st Mal these are the, this is I've taken all these pictures
• 46:44
  from the website and I know a lot of them are pre.
• 46:46
  Trevor And that kind of shows you how some of these need to be
• 46:50
  maybe version to the picture of Carpathias.
• 46:54
  It's ridiculous. I'm not sure you could do
• 46:56
  anything with Carpathias, you look better.
• 47:01
  The sword, I don't know. Put it down.
• 47:03
  Touching the floor, I don't know.
• 47:04
  He looks so boring he may as well be wearing a cardigan
• 47:07
  reading a newspaper. Yeah, I mean, that's it, isn't
• 47:10
  it? Carpathias has got to be God.
• 47:14
  I mean, I don't know what you do with him, but he's got to be in
• 47:17
  there for a version 2 because I think, I don't know, I'd be
• 47:21
  interested to hear what people at the studio thought of him
• 47:25
  because he's just. I would if an opportunity came
• 47:29
  up to get him for like, you know, retail price, I'd get him
• 47:32
  just to add him to the collection.
• 47:34
  But he's so boring to any of the other vampires.
• 47:41
  The rest of them is so cool. But his his bio just refreshed
• 47:45
  the bio in my head now. And it sucks about him, you
• 47:47
  know, paralyzing his victims with a poisoned tip blade and
• 47:50
  then slowly draining him alive. So you know you want a proper
• 47:54
  evil head sculpt, not one that looks like he's bored to be
• 47:56
  there. Dirty.
• 47:58
  Yeah, Yeah. Open that mouth carpet to you.
• 48:01
  It's not just not just like a smile make.
• 48:04
  Goatee because he's pure evil. I know it's not something they
• 48:08
  like to do, but maybe he's the one that could have a bit of
• 48:10
  blood around his mouth. As if he's just feasted or even
• 48:15
  just a poison tipped sword, you know?
• 48:18
  Yeah, yeah. Or Dagger.
• 48:20
  Or whatever it may. Dagger more likely if you know
• 48:23
  if they're going to be doing a bit sneaky.
• 48:26
  Or maybe you could have like a Talon glove, like Talon finger
• 48:30
  glove with poison on the end of those, so you like swipes his
• 48:34
  victim and then. And of course, I think vampires
• 48:38
  like carpetius, if they're going to be done the version two, I
• 48:40
  think the more duban slash valiant night, that type of
• 48:44
  torsos size. Yes, yeah, that's definitely.
• 48:48
  Still 1.0 but is thinner and not as bulky and a bit more and
• 48:55
  obviously if he had the arms like the Valiant Night as well
• 48:58
  he'd be, he'd be able to move a lot more.
• 49:00
  I give put him in a lot more cool articulated poses, So be
• 49:04
  sweet. Yep.
• 49:08
  Obviously got Herzog. There's all the same sorts of
• 49:11
  things Rich there to have. So let's just sort of, yeah,
• 49:13
  yeah, he's a given at some point.
• 49:16
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 49:17
  Queen Ox. I just feel like she's another
• 49:20
  one that they could be, they could do keep the head not
• 49:24
  available and they could do with a revisit.
• 49:26
  Yeah, yeah. Keep the head and kind of jazz
• 49:30
  up the rest of her stuff. Yeah, yeah.
• 49:32
  As I say, I'd love to see her in scale.
• 49:35
  Bone armor. Yeah, yeah, that'd be cool that.
• 49:39
  'D be good. 1.0 scale too would be much.
• 49:42
  Better. Yeah.
• 49:42
  Yeah, we talked. About this, the kind of Navy
• 49:44
  scale, shall we say it's 1.0, but you know, female.
• 49:48
  With not having many female orcs, it's not like they're
• 49:52
  opening a can of worms. Even if they do that, are they?
• 49:55
  She's literally the only female orc at this point.
• 49:57
  So, well, the Legion. Builder as well.
• 50:00
  Oh yeah, yeah. Sorry, but they're named
• 50:02
  character. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 50:04
  And it actually worked better. If the grunts are a bit
• 50:07
  scrawnier and she's a bit bigger in that respect, yeah, let's go
• 50:13
  over to Faunus. He's again, he's one of the best
• 50:20
  head sculpts that exists. He's one of the best sort of
• 50:23
  cool looking characters already, but he he would not benefit from
• 50:28
  a bit of shrugging up at this point.
• 50:31
  He's one of those that's looking a little bit dated.
• 50:33
  Yeah, I mean The funny thing. Sorry, Mel.
• 50:38
  Yeah. Go on, I want you.
• 50:40
  He's one of the ones that came in the mystery box that if
• 50:43
  somebody was looking to trade him for a figure that I had kind
• 50:46
  of, you know, from the last mistake a few waves ago that I
• 50:50
  had an extra of, I'd be straight away.
• 50:53
  Yeah, I'll give you that for your phones.
• 50:54
  No bother. Yeah, totally.
• 50:55
  To have an extra anyway. Yeah.
• 50:59
  And I mean, don't need to do anything with his staff.
• 51:01
  I still think that's one of the most fun Staffs.
• 51:04
  Maybe could make it all wood rather than metal with a wooden
• 51:07
  tip, I don't know. But it works.
• 51:10
  So you know, it's not like he needs loads doing to him, but he
• 51:13
  could do you know they again they've sort of started the ball
• 51:17
  rolling on where it looks like soft goods making them soft
• 51:21
  goods and it'd really work. But did we talk about this the
• 51:25
  other way? You can Rich sort of saying
• 51:27
  there could be more bow, more wood on him or something more?
• 51:32
  Like that tendrils or something like that would be.
• 51:34
  Yeah, something like that would be cool.
• 51:36
  Just show off. He's a bit more of like a, you
• 51:39
  know, a Sprite or whatever he's meant to be from the woods.
• 51:45
  So yeah, any thought of the thoughts on him before I move on
• 51:50
  to the next? No, I think he's, he's one they
• 51:53
  could definitely do more with, but keep the heads got for sure,
• 51:57
  yeah. Yeah, and then I'll go to Freya
• 52:01
  because part of me don't doesn't think we will get a two point
• 52:05
  version two of Freya. But I'd really and I really
• 52:09
  really like her as she is. So when I say this, it's just
• 52:13
  what might they update, who they might update and with thinking
• 52:16
  about the new things that they've done with figures and
• 52:20
  what's available and it's she would just that whole thing of
• 52:24
  her being a Valkyrie. And you know the classic look of
• 52:28
  Valkyrie as being a bit bigger. That's the only, not the only
• 52:32
  reason, but that I'd love to see that from her, you know, I'd
• 52:38
  love to see them bulk her up again using the female 1.0 body
• 52:44
  again. Doesn't even need lots of
• 52:46
  changes. Maybe the new shield that
• 52:49
  they've done for Noble Bear, you know.
• 52:54
  Yeah, doesn't need loads doing just a bit of roofing up and a
• 52:58
  bit of bulk enough. And then one that the final one
• 53:04
  that I've put down. And again, this is sometime in
• 53:08
  the next couple of years, as you say, Malleus, and who knows?
• 53:13
  But when you compare him to every other sibling of of the,
• 53:19
  you know, every other child or Necronominus man, he's dull.
• 53:24
  And I'm sorry if Walter ever hears this, but he doesn't fit
• 53:27
  with the rest of them. Even he didn't really fit with
• 53:29
  brother Mandibulus and Morguliffe.
• 53:34
  Again, just a bit. Needs to be a bit more.
• 53:38
  Impressive. Especially Absolutely.
• 53:42
  He absolutely suffers. Hasn't even been really early in
• 53:44
  the line sort of thing. So, as you say, he's just been
• 53:47
  totally eclipsed by every other sibling.
• 53:50
  Yeah, and I appreciate in carrying the double, the 2
• 53:54
  double axes. The idea is he's just, you know,
• 53:56
  he's super strong and it probably doesn't matter with a
• 53:59
  skeleton if they're big or not. But there you go, he's there an
• 54:03
  opportunity. He could be a brute scale
• 54:05
  skeleton. Oh yes, with the two big.
• 54:08
  Axes. That would be fun, wouldn't it?
• 54:10
  Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
• 54:13
  Right. Let's move on to Rich and Rich
• 54:17
  went a bit Mal on us here. Yeah, I went a bit crazy on this
• 54:21
  one. Yeah, Faunus, we've talked about
• 54:25
  the Elf Raider. I think it's just a character
• 54:27
  that you can do so much. For Ranger, yeah.
• 54:30
  What did I say? Raider.
• 54:33
  Oh, sorry, my apologies. Maybe he'll do some raiding as
• 54:36
  well, but. Maybe the Yeah, let me bring
• 54:37
  some Shadow Elves in raiding everywhere.
• 54:39
  Yeah, no, the Elf Ranger. You can just look like soft good
• 54:42
  tastic sort of thing. Proper cloth hood.
• 54:45
  Although the figure is great, that hood looks out of place
• 54:48
  with the the cloth Cape. Fancy a bow?
• 54:52
  Maybe some sort of horn to use to for to alert people?
• 54:55
  Maybe it's slightly different on how much it had a little bit
• 54:59
  less leg or less, yeah. That's never a bad thing.
• 55:04
  Yeah. Although, did you guys, I don't
• 55:09
  know if you guys saw those, the Liverpool Comic Con over here,
• 55:13
  this is last weekend or the weekend before and they had
• 55:16
  Orlando Bloom and the four guys that played The Hobbles.
• 55:19
  They're doing photographs and this sort of stuff.
• 55:22
  And somebody's taking a picture. Of them.
• 55:24
  Somebody's taking a picture of them in a restaurant the night
• 55:27
  before. It's fair to say Orlando Bloom
• 55:29
  was enjoying himself. He absolutely hammered like they
• 55:33
  were. They were all clearly, you know,
• 55:35
  they're like celebrating his shots and they were clearly
• 55:37
  enjoying themselves. But he looked so hammered.
• 55:39
  Come to legions Khan, We've got a figure of you, mate.
• 55:43
  Better than the Toy Biz 1 or the.
• 55:47
  Steel hide I talked about quite a lot last.
• 55:49
  Yeah. Yeah, quite a lot last week I
• 55:51
  think. Just a taller build, less
• 55:53
  armoured. We talked about the Monkey King,
• 55:56
  yeah. Yeah, Freya, don't disagree with
• 56:01
  anything Mal said on that one. I I quite like a helmet the the
• 56:04
  current one, but the face sculpt is a bit bit plain so I think
• 56:08
  they could do more there definitely.
• 56:09
  Screaming Valkyrie. Oh, screaming.
• 56:12
  That could be awesome. And then I thought that if they
• 56:15
  ever do a Pegasus, because obviously, you know, you can
• 56:17
  just check her on a Pegasus then as well.
• 56:18
  And it's just like. The the other thing, it feels
• 56:22
  like they could incorporate that the immoral, not immortal issue
• 56:28
  really, but you know that coming back to life things somehow into
• 56:32
  the figure a bit more. I know it's like the story of
• 56:34
  the Valkyries, but you know. They could give her one
• 56:40
  translucent head when she's regenerated.
• 56:44
  There you go. It would actually make sense.
• 56:46
  So you know, I would not be slagging out.
• 56:50
  I love translucent plastic. Just in the right place, you
• 56:53
  know. And as we discussed in the
• 56:55
  previous episode, her and Gorgo have clearly got it going on, so
• 56:57
  maybe a little picture would be another.
• 57:00
  Let's not talk about Demon Wangs again now.
• 57:08
  I put Helmet Golden Tooth in. I mean, I'd quite happily have
• 57:12
  him released as he is as part of an All Star way, but obviously
• 57:16
  they seem to be veering away from that.
• 57:17
  Yeah, and having sold mine to degree on, it's one of the only
• 57:21
  a couple of figures I actually regret selling, so I'd love to
• 57:23
  see him again. So he.
• 57:24
  Has mismatched pauldrons and he also has dirt on his boots.
• 57:28
  I think it's that kind of stuff, I think yes.
• 57:31
  I'm being an ex gladiator. I think he could do more in
• 57:33
  terms of like bare arms or sort of soft good look to him rather
• 57:38
  than just this fully armoured look that he has at the moment.
• 57:42
  Every time anyone says bare arms now I just imagine the bodvar
• 57:46
  arms stuck on where. All the characters turn into
• 57:52
  where bears. It's like, here we go, yeah.
• 57:55
  All the House and Opal Bear Bear version Twos.
• 57:57
  They're where bears. King Noglin, I think this
• 58:04
  character, I think this figure is a brilliant figure anyway,
• 58:07
  but at the same time there's, you know, the stuff they've got
• 58:11
  nowadays. They could do a better job with
• 58:13
  the armour. It could.
• 58:15
  You know, he's a, he's obviously a goblin show off, so he could
• 58:17
  have some mismatched armour that he's got from other people
• 58:20
  maybe, but it's quite fancy and ornate.
• 58:24
  He features heavily in this Thousand Swigs story.
• 58:28
  Oh, does he? OK.
• 58:30
  So we'd have to have a battle if we're going to do this story, we
• 58:33
  have to have a battle to see who voices and.
• 58:37
  Maybe like a proper like gold crown or something rather than
• 58:41
  what sort of wooden one he's got.
• 58:42
  That's so unique though. I know, but I think, I think
• 58:45
  he's a show off Goblin, so I think he'd he'd like that, sort
• 58:48
  of. Maybe an alternative crowned
• 58:50
  head, yeah. OK, yeah, Morgliffe is another
• 58:55
  one that I really like the current figure.
• 58:56
  One I forgot about, to be honest or I missed her.
• 58:59
  I don't know. I'm traumatized by her.
• 59:04
  I mean, it'll be interesting to see what they did with her
• 59:06
  because it, you know, that head sculpt is incredible already
• 59:09
  sort of thing. But again, you could do better,
• 59:11
  better job with a soft, you know, not a better job, but
• 59:15
  bearing in mind those soft goods they have.
• 59:16
  Nowadays a better. Job a thinner staff so she can
• 59:20
  actually hold it, yes. I think, I think most of the
• 59:24
  studio would say what C Jessen's doing now is better than what
• 59:27
  they were doing then by a long way.
• 59:31
  Maybe. Maybe sandaled bone feet stop
• 59:33
  them getting a bit sore. We're walking along.
• 59:35
  On that play. Cool, yeah.
• 59:39
  Maybe. Bone sandals maybe?
• 59:43
  You could even do something like, I mean, she's meant to see
• 59:45
  through the eyes of her warriors, isn't she?
• 59:47
  So you could even do like glowing eyes, like a glowing eye
• 59:50
  head sculpt. Tomorrow there's an additional
• 59:52
  one so that it's like she's using that power and can see
• 59:55
  through it. Or glow like Superman figures.
• 59:57
  You know the glow with the glow coming out of the eyes.
• 1:00:00
  Yeah, that's nice. So I'd I'd buy that Lord Aiden
• 1:00:06
  again. He's just an old character that,
• 1:00:08
  you know, the elves are becoming far more prominent now.
• 1:00:12
  You could do an awful lot with him.
• 1:00:14
  Better weapons, you know, a chirpier face or maybe a bearded
• 1:00:19
  face. Let's keep, let's like you know
• 1:00:21
  different. Yeah, I think maybe stoic is
• 1:00:24
  more. It's easier to do with a beard.
• 1:00:25
  Is it? Because yeah, it just looks
• 1:00:27
  pissed off. Yeah, Grisha, again, this is
• 1:00:34
  just a list of figures I already like, but I'd love.
• 1:00:38
  It's your show, you know it's your it's your choice.
• 1:00:41
  I love what they do in the sort of Middle Eastern armor vibe, so
• 1:00:43
  I think they could do new things with a Grisha.
• 1:00:46
  Ideally I'd want it 1.0 rather than 2.0, but I'm not sure they
• 1:00:50
  go that route. But again, it gives you much
• 1:00:52
  more of an option in terms of weapons like, you know, more a
• 1:00:55
  new curved weapon or something that's clearly from that part of
• 1:00:59
  the world sort of thing. I wanted to include Grisha, but
• 1:01:02
  I found it hard to improve the basic figure.
• 1:01:08
  Yeah, I'd say with him he's he's so good as he is.
• 1:01:11
  Just leave him as he is and just create a new character.
• 1:01:14
  That's got in the same realm, yeah, yeah, yeah, it would be
• 1:01:17
  better. I'd I love the head sculpt.
• 1:01:19
  I think it's one of my favorite ones in the line.
• 1:01:21
  But I'd happily see another version of that.
• 1:01:25
  You know, maybe if he's bored and he wants to change his look
• 1:01:27
  a little bit because, you know, meant to be a bit, you know,
• 1:01:29
  nobody knows what it what if he or she is?
• 1:01:31
  Like they've never got another use out of that tool, which is
• 1:01:36
  interesting. Yeah, Malleus.
• 1:01:40
  Nothing different to what Mal said.
• 1:01:42
  It's just boring, out of date and needs a a refresh.
• 1:01:46
  Xylo swept back, swept back. Antlers I.
• 1:01:52
  Really want them to do that? It's.
• 1:01:54
  Just a thing now, isn't it? Carpathius again, we've talked
• 1:01:59
  about him. Etheron I'd like to see bigger,
• 1:02:06
  I think. I think.
• 1:02:07
  I think with all the sort of great beasts, I want them
• 1:02:11
  slightly larger than life sort of thing.
• 1:02:13
  And I know they haven't done that with the daughter gods.
• 1:02:15
  They're all other than Necronominus.
• 1:02:17
  She's a little bit taller. They're all the same sort of
• 1:02:20
  sizes, but I think with the great things, it would just be
• 1:02:21
  good just to boost. Like those figures, right?
• 1:02:25
  The great beasts or whatever. And you know we're talking about
• 1:02:27
  ether on here's what the one that we've got.
• 1:02:31
  Yeah, just completely retool him, make him bigger, give him
• 1:02:35
  more stuff. Make him £70 but like he's your
• 1:02:39
  daddy, you know he is like and then the other three as well.
• 1:02:43
  Same sort of level, you know, not going to be a 37 dollar $40
• 1:02:48
  fee or whatever naked people would pay that.
• 1:02:52
  People are paying £300 for him now or £500 from now, whatever
• 1:02:57
  it is. What some What's he on the Jones
• 1:02:58
  123456? He's missing his wings and one
• 1:03:02
  of his additional feat, so he's he's the only 300 on, yeah.
• 1:03:06
  So even an incomplete 1, even for that.
• 1:03:08
  Like, no offense, but you know, that's tough.
• 1:03:12
  Yeah, and then a Queen arc, Sir. Nothing different to what Miles
• 1:03:18
  said on that Bigger 1.0 scale would be great.
• 1:03:21
  I think all of your was huge on the said about bone armor.
• 1:03:24
  Yeah, that. Would be awesome.
• 1:03:25
  I think that would be a really good feel for her as well.
• 1:03:28
  Very good. Well, well done Rich.
• 1:03:29
  And getting through all of them. That was amazing.
• 1:03:33
  Here's my Sunios. I maybe cheated a bit.
• 1:03:36
  I went with the Night Builder, Deluxe Night Builder from the
• 1:03:43
  Covenant to Shadow Wave. The only figure that hasn't been
• 1:03:45
  reissued out of that wave, which is amazing.
• 1:03:50
  And I think that judging on the conversations they had recently
• 1:03:55
  on Jeremy's show, they're not going to re release this one
• 1:04:00
  because they think that there's been so many good new parts that
• 1:04:04
  they're more likely to do like in different night builder with
• 1:04:08
  some more of the new parts. And I'd be down for that.
• 1:04:11
  So that's what I'm just putting it in.
• 1:04:13
  Might even be a version 2. Might just be night Builder
• 1:04:16
  three, you know whatever it's called.
• 1:04:19
  So I'd be down for that. All your new night parts, maybe
• 1:04:23
  it's obviously soft goods or something.
• 1:04:24
  Some generic soft goods would be really cool, wouldn't it?
• 1:04:27
  You know those blue, but in soft goods would be really good.
• 1:04:30
  The thing the picture shows it doesn't show here, and I believe
• 1:04:33
  you pointed this out before. Mal is there is a torso as well
• 1:04:37
  to match that skirt piece. Yeah, there is, yeah.
• 1:04:41
  So that's cool. We got Halmer, Golden Tooth.
• 1:04:47
  Yeah. You've said it already boys.
• 1:04:50
  And I would be, I would like I have him, but I think he's good
• 1:04:54
  enough to be just a straight issue as well.
• 1:04:57
  But why not version to him at some stage if you're going to go
• 1:05:01
  that way anyway with a lot of the figures.
• 1:05:03
  And then I have a kind of a double here because they're
• 1:05:07
  LinkedIn, the story and they came together in the same wave
• 1:05:09
  is Ragnar, which I think from everything I've heard and this
• 1:05:13
  from the studio over the years, not entirely happy with them,
• 1:05:16
  even though it's Jim's favorite figure that he said in
• 1:05:19
  interviews. I don't know if he was serious
• 1:05:21
  or not, but I don't think he's the type of guy that would say
• 1:05:24
  something like that, so. I've seen Eric in two separate
• 1:05:28
  interview say it's his least favorite figure.
• 1:05:30
  Yeah. I think it was.
• 1:05:33
  I think he was restricted by parrots, wasn't he?
• 1:05:38
  And Thalia Prospo then, she's a very popular figure.
• 1:05:42
  I think she was very easy to get at the time when this was
• 1:05:46
  released and in when it was in stock and everything and there
• 1:05:49
  was, you know, she was. But now people, I think because
• 1:05:52
  she's so unique within the line and obviously there's a lot more
• 1:05:56
  like you've got the Legions ladies now, which is a big
• 1:05:58
  group. You've got a lot more people
• 1:06:00
  that are into the line with different tastes and she's
• 1:06:03
  definitely a figure that people want to get more of.
• 1:06:06
  Again, she's pretty good as is, but you know, if you're going to
• 1:06:11
  improve Ragnar, give her her body.
• 1:06:15
  You know, give that ice troll a proper battle.
• 1:06:18
  Yeah, and you could, you could find some sort of way of with
• 1:06:22
  Fallon of of incorporating some sort of ice feel to the armour
• 1:06:26
  potential. So rather than just a colour,
• 1:06:28
  some of the sculpting or something like that could work
• 1:06:30
  well. Yeah, exactly.
• 1:06:31
  And obviously would never happen.
• 1:06:32
  Now there's going to be a demand for yourselves anyway, isn't
• 1:06:35
  there? Totally.
• 1:06:36
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:06:38
  So you could even. Translucent weapons so as if
• 1:06:43
  they're made from ice or something.
• 1:06:44
  Like that? Yeah.
• 1:06:45
  Oh, that would be good. Awesome, wouldn't it?
• 1:06:47
  Yeah, or even translucent effects.
• 1:06:50
  Yeah, kind of Common of the weapons.
• 1:06:51
  Arrows. Yeah.
• 1:06:53
  Arrows. Yeah.
• 1:06:54
  Frosty arrows. Yeah, and then Ragnar, you're
• 1:06:57
  talking about maybe using some of the new dwarf parts from the
• 1:07:01
  kit, or giving her more of a real dwarf scale and just
• 1:07:07
  differentiating the size from just the armor, you know?
• 1:07:11
  Or rather than the goblin scale here, which is, which is not
• 1:07:15
  really great. It's cool, but it's unique.
• 1:07:20
  I really like recommend but I'm always happy to get more dwarfs
• 1:07:24
  or version twos or dwarfs. And on helmets or dragnet as
• 1:07:29
  well, maybe. That'd be cool.
• 1:07:32
  Especially with how well they did with that female head for
• 1:07:35
  the dwarf builder pack, that's so good it'd be nice to get a
• 1:07:38
  ranker. Version and we can find out then
• 1:07:41
  if the if the hair coming out the back of the helmet is
• 1:07:44
  actually her hair. If it's just a helmet piece.
• 1:07:49
  Because she has the gut. Yeah, because she has that kind
• 1:07:53
  of Gorgo helmet as well. But in this scale doesn't come
• 1:07:56
  with that many figures. So that is a kind of a more
• 1:08:00
  unique piece that comes with her.
• 1:08:02
  You could have some facial tattoos or something, I don't
• 1:08:04
  know. Or maybe yeah, Or maybe this
• 1:08:08
  kind of really, you know, shaved on one side, but like more than
• 1:08:12
  Juno, you know, Maybe really on like half her head, you know, Or
• 1:08:16
  or half something really crazy, anyway.
• 1:08:20
  Or it's just a full of mullet. What's up?
• 1:08:25
  Sticking out the back and then just shit size.
• 1:08:27
  Really, really bouffant at the front.
• 1:08:30
  Really emphasize the model. Oh yeah, love it.
• 1:08:33
  Balan. I can't believe, Rich, You
• 1:08:35
  didn't have Balan. He's on my list of the ones I
• 1:08:39
  would really. Like, but you don't think, OK, I
• 1:08:42
  think Balan needs soft goods to get up to the level of his
• 1:08:49
  faction colleagues. Now I think that he could do
• 1:08:53
  with an open mouth, Ted sculpt too, and better weapons.
• 1:08:59
  So that's really where we're going with Balaam.
• 1:09:02
  It's a funny one because I actually really, really like him
• 1:09:04
  in the arms and I I have him as more of a warrior than a
• 1:09:10
  magician. Yeah, and I also can't believe
• 1:09:15
  any of the Legion's Lounge guys didn't pick Balaam as a mage.
• 1:09:18
  I mean, come on, he's getting everything there, you know.
• 1:09:22
  Anyway, especially I think it was Natie had all the animals in
• 1:09:25
  his group. So when I stick the lamb in
• 1:09:27
  there Maria Grohl golden branch, then I think if you're going to
• 1:09:34
  do Lord Aiden, do her as well then give her soft goods give
• 1:09:40
  her a big cloak don't need to maybe change the head sculpt the
• 1:09:44
  paint ONS on those two are really good.
• 1:09:47
  I mean a bit like Grisha as well that wave some of the paint on
• 1:09:50
  that small you know scale of body really really good.
• 1:09:55
  You know very hard to get a really good customizer to paint
• 1:09:59
  that good. So nothing wrong with that but
• 1:10:02
  yeah and then give her more interesting weapons you know she
• 1:10:05
  look look at the weapons there. It just looks like, yeah, OK,
• 1:10:08
  this, this, this. There you go, love.
• 1:10:12
  Yeah, she's just running past a weapon rock, As in she's grabbed
• 1:10:14
  the first thing that came to hand.
• 1:10:16
  Yeah, instead of, you know, she's quite high up in the in
• 1:10:19
  the in the Alvin court, so you know she needs a bit better than
• 1:10:23
  that, right? Cool And Most Wanted for Mal and
• 1:10:28
  these will include ones we've mentioned already.
• 1:10:31
  This is it. Yeah.
• 1:10:32
  There'll be a crossover, but there is a lot in there here
• 1:10:34
  from what I've talked. About which is fine, So we don't
• 1:10:36
  need to dwell on them, but we can we can definitely talk about
• 1:10:39
  them and obviously tell people who they are.
• 1:10:43
  So OK, number one, I'd absolutely love to get him.
• 1:10:47
  I if he wasn't so expensive, I'd pick up the old figure now.
• 1:10:52
  And it is purely that head sculpt is so cool, but I'd love
• 1:10:56
  to see an updated one, the blue cloth goods and all that.
• 1:11:00
  And I I mean, we sort of briefly talked about it before and the
• 1:11:05
  more I think about it, the more it'd be so cool if he had silver
• 1:11:08
  version of Attila's armor somehow.
• 1:11:13
  Maybe not all of it, but you know, bits of it.
• 1:11:17
  I kind of like the idea of him having the silver helmet, but I
• 1:11:21
  don't think they'd do that. Got you Irksa.
• 1:11:26
  Yeah, I'd love Queen Irksa, but again, I'd love her in that
• 1:11:31
  female one point O scale. I've really like what they're
• 1:11:34
  doing there. More female figures we get like
• 1:11:38
  that the better in my opinion. You know, bit of variety.
• 1:11:43
  Not to say they should eliminate the two point O females at all,
• 1:11:47
  but it adds the nice bit of variety that you don't often see
• 1:11:52
  in figure lines. Totally, yeah.
• 1:11:54
  Same with Freya again. Love her as she is.
• 1:11:58
  Wouldn't get rid of the current money if I go if they did a new
• 1:12:00
  one but I'd love to see her as a more like that classic Valkyrie.
• 1:12:04
  Ever been a bit bigger Malachi? I've I've sort of I got the elf
• 1:12:13
  warrior in my mystery box and that's what I said last week and
• 1:12:17
  and I've said to you guys I've kind of fallen I'm not fussed by
• 1:12:21
  the elves generally. I like Bardrick because he's
• 1:12:23
  different. I like Artemis because she's a
• 1:12:26
  bit different but the rest of the elves I'm a bit like meh.
• 1:12:29
  But the dark elves, I've got that elf, dark elf warrior, and
• 1:12:35
  they're just so they're cool. And then reading their BIOS,
• 1:12:38
  they are actually they're fun. They're I like that that's, you
• 1:12:42
  know a fun elf. And then the one that's probably
• 1:12:46
  2nd, 12, they but left him till last because I haven't talked
• 1:12:49
  about him because I'm not sure we will get him anytime soon.
• 1:12:53
  And we talked. I mentioned him last week.
• 1:12:55
  Is the jar and Rune Shaper? Oh yeah, I'd love him as he is,
• 1:13:00
  to be honest with you. But I think it'd be really cool
• 1:13:05
  to get him again because they've done so many of these new.
• 1:13:12
  What's the faction? Basilia Basilia.
• 1:13:16
  With the cloth goods and their cloth heavy.
• 1:13:18
  And the magic effects. Yeah, yeah, it'd be great to do
• 1:13:21
  that to him. I'd like to keep certain
• 1:13:24
  features and the colours particularly I'd like to keep.
• 1:13:27
  I like the winged helmet, so maybe just modify that slightly.
• 1:13:33
  But yeah, he's. I'd love to get him as a tube, a
• 1:13:37
  version 2, or even just a rerelease of his current figure,
• 1:13:40
  but I think when they do it, it'll be a version 2.
• 1:13:44
  It's interesting that that action shot is the only shot on
• 1:13:46
  the website character. It's funny, isn't it?
• 1:13:51
  I don't know who I don't. It doesn't even say who said
• 1:13:53
  that. I guess it was somebody in the
• 1:13:55
  studio. I don't know.
• 1:13:56
  But interesting. All right.
• 1:14:00
  Should we move on to Rich? This was funny, Rich, for me
• 1:14:05
  because I looked your most wanted and there was the first
• 1:14:09
  two figures here. And then I actually did it.
• 1:14:14
  And then I was like, that's strange and he wants to.
• 1:14:17
  And then I went back and I scrolled down and you have
• 1:14:19
  another you had another page in the document you sent me.
• 1:14:24
  I was like, ah, this makes more sense, right?
• 1:14:28
  Let's get those. So some of these you haven't
• 1:14:31
  mentioned before, which is interesting.
• 1:14:32
  I haven't no so balaam. I would love another balaam.
• 1:14:36
  I would want bare feet. Oh yeah, good.
• 1:14:41
  Shows as well in an ideal world, so you could put some claws and
• 1:14:44
  and that sort of thing. I'd also want the flocked
• 1:14:47
  version, even if it's just a head.
• 1:14:49
  Oh yeah, rather than everything you know.
• 1:14:51
  Flocked, flocked. Or an exclusive flocked version.
• 1:14:53
  I don't care. I see eBay prices for that.
• 1:14:55
  Yeah, and and I would love to see this, it talks about him
• 1:15:00
  harnessing the power of creatures, A couple of little
• 1:15:03
  creatures to go with it. Oh yeah.
• 1:15:05
  Like a couple. Of bunnies, something like that.
• 1:15:06
  You know they've done the small cuddly toy things for the
• 1:15:08
  figure. Obscuriously they've shown that
• 1:15:10
  they can do tiny little fig non articulated things.
• 1:15:13
  So let's have a Bunny and a badger or something.
• 1:15:16
  Or squirrel, you know, because. Badgers are menace.
• 1:15:20
  You know Badger and the squirrel wouldn't work though.
• 1:15:22
  Well, it would if Balaam was telling them what to do, but
• 1:15:24
  otherwise the badger would detect squirrel.
• 1:15:27
  So. Yes, I'd love Balaam Gadrielle.
• 1:15:34
  Again, the armour colour and that is amazing, but I hate the
• 1:15:38
  head sculpt so I'd I'd want a different head sculpt that looks
• 1:15:42
  a bit more angelic, be that with some sort of Halo type thing
• 1:15:46
  that can go on, or long hair I think would probably work better
• 1:15:52
  as well for that sort of angelic look.
• 1:15:55
  Again, I like the fact she comes with a hammer, but it's too big
• 1:15:58
  to hold. So again, scale that down a
• 1:16:01
  little bit and make that work better.
• 1:16:04
  So I'd love another one of her. Funnily enough, I nearly went
• 1:16:07
  with her as well in my wanted list.
• 1:16:12
  Jaw and same as Mal said, just more soft goods.
• 1:16:15
  I'd maybe take the armour down a little bit, maybe some sort of
• 1:16:19
  cloth, cloth arms or something or or legs sort of thing.
• 1:16:21
  Just to reduce the armour slightly.
• 1:16:24
  They could do so much more now with the the magic effects.
• 1:16:27
  Grisha, I've talked about Galleron, same as you really,
• 1:16:31
  John, I I quite like the back story sort of thing so an
• 1:16:34
  unhelmeted head would be great. That armour colour's brilliant
• 1:16:36
  as well so let's find a way of getting him Pixos.
• 1:16:44
  It's a great character that I think they could do more with
• 1:16:47
  it. So at the moment it's just
• 1:16:48
  obviously just got the Mercurian head.
• 1:16:50
  So let's have a different Mercurian head with a skeletal
• 1:16:54
  face plate that you can put a human face plate or something as
• 1:16:57
  well if you wanted to do a different one further down the
• 1:16:59
  line. I'd just really like this one.
• 1:17:02
  Take a version too as well so. Again, I'd be looking for bare
• 1:17:06
  skeletal feet, I think with this guy as well and just generally A
• 1:17:11
  dirtier look as well. Sort of thing that he's come
• 1:17:13
  through from the, you know, from his background sort of thing.
• 1:17:17
  So just dirtier look. Malleus again, boring.
• 1:17:22
  Let's make him better how Mirror talked about.
• 1:17:25
  Do you know this is the other figure that I regret selling?
• 1:17:30
  But I'd want to. I'd want a bit if they if they
• 1:17:32
  were to redo it, a bigger one. So brute scale again like Neve.
• 1:17:36
  No, there. She's 1.0, not Bruce.
• 1:17:38
  Yeah. Sorry, 1.0, not Bruce.
• 1:17:40
  Sorry. Yeah, that's what I meant.
• 1:17:42
  Yeah, I mean, Brute is compatible 1.0, but yeah, you'd
• 1:17:44
  like a Neve scale, yeah? And again, that would fit the
• 1:17:47
  weapons better because she's got big bruising weapons.
• 1:17:49
  But doesn't look like it. She could.
• 1:17:51
  She'd actually do that much with them at the moment.
• 1:17:54
  Maybe I don't sound prudish, but maybe a little bit more in the
• 1:17:56
  way of clothing. I'm not a I'm not a huge fan of
• 1:18:00
  the titty Barbarian looking. I think she's pilot titty
• 1:18:03
  barbarian, yeah. I really liked you, you know?
• 1:18:06
  But yeah, she could face being a version too.
• 1:18:12
  Thistle form. I love the character, I think A.
• 1:18:15
  Version. There you go, Jesse.
• 1:18:16
  I don't see. We knew you'd get you covered.
• 1:18:19
  We'd get another Fuzz Monk head sculpted out of it, so that
• 1:18:23
  would be good because people can repaint those all sorts of
• 1:18:25
  different colours and do cool stuff with the character he's.
• 1:18:29
  One I'd actually think a little growling, head sculpted be cool.
• 1:18:34
  He just looks too soft and squishy and you know he, I can
• 1:18:39
  imagine he's a proper little rip your head off character when he
• 1:18:42
  has to. Yeah, the sort of guy, if you're
• 1:18:47
  having a few drinks and it kicks off, he's there.
• 1:18:49
  Yeah, that's like decimating the place, yeah.
• 1:18:52
  He's running in front of you, nutted the guy.
• 1:18:56
  Yeah. So clearly a tankard in in the
• 1:18:59
  accessories, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's right.
• 1:19:02
  I I don't like the armoury he's got at the moment.
• 1:19:04
  It's too particularly, you know it's it's too like rigid and
• 1:19:07
  that sort of stuff. I'd like some sort of sort of
• 1:19:08
  smoother look or even more soft goods to it to give me more of a
• 1:19:14
  foresty feel. OK, cool.
• 1:19:16
  And then lastly, Fauna. So I think I took chatted at
• 1:19:18
  length about it last week. But some sort of tendrils, maybe
• 1:19:21
  an exposed torso with the soft goods going through it and.
• 1:19:24
  More, more organic. Isn't that what we'd say more?
• 1:19:27
  Organic. I like that, yes.
• 1:19:29
  I think that sort of character would work really well with the
• 1:19:31
  beard. Not an evil goatee this time,
• 1:19:33
  but a full beard. Maybe flocked beard?
• 1:19:37
  And. A green flock or whatever, yeah.
• 1:19:40
  And that would be all dotted around, would be very good.
• 1:19:43
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes and so.
• 1:19:47
  That's a good idea for a customer.
• 1:19:50
  Yeah, so there are a few of these I don't think we'll get
• 1:19:53
  version twos of, but I'd love to have them.
• 1:19:55
  So yeah. Oh yeah, this is your wish list.
• 1:19:57
  Yeah, yeah, right. Mine of course a lot is covered,
• 1:20:02
  but number one, I think it just although just want to have them
• 1:20:05
  in the collection at this stage and all down for.
• 1:20:12
  The great beasts. So give us an ether on, but
• 1:20:14
  yeah, as I said earlier, just give us a big one.
• 1:20:18
  Uh, give us a totally new tooled one.
• 1:20:21
  You know, we have to pay for a tour, but you know, just go all
• 1:20:24
  out and the knight deluxe builder.
• 1:20:29
  Yeah, go crazy. We love Knights.
• 1:20:31
  Let us legion build deluxe Knights.
• 1:20:34
  Maybe give us the possibility to make 2 Knights in the one pack.
• 1:20:40
  Maybe. Maybe charge a little bit more,
• 1:20:43
  but less than two figures. I don't know how he could
• 1:20:45
  squeeze that, but it would be just amazing.
• 1:20:49
  Yeah. Well, you know, that's something
• 1:20:51
  cool, no? I mean like that.
• 1:20:53
  Cosmic Legion Legion Builders. Essentially there's two almost 2
• 1:20:59
  characters. Yeah, but there's only.
• 1:21:02
  One character. Yeah, yeah, two on the one.
• 1:21:05
  But there's always like your arms or legs you're missing.
• 1:21:07
  Yeah, you have two. I'm just actually give us two
• 1:21:11
  figures. But but like maybe for $60.00
• 1:21:16
  somehow, I don't know, just, you know, just make it amazing.
• 1:21:21
  But it's it'll be amazing if it's just a couple of extra
• 1:21:25
  torsos or an extra pair of boots or something, you know that
• 1:21:28
  that's also cool. But you know, talking dreamland
• 1:21:31
  here Herzog is another one. I need the leader of the orcs
• 1:21:37
  army. You know I need him.
• 1:21:41
  He's a definite thord. Again, very important character
• 1:21:46
  for the dwarfs. So he needs to be there.
• 1:21:49
  And Balaam, I'll just take all the blam we can get.
• 1:21:52
  I'll take the old one, the new one, whatever.
• 1:21:55
  So give us another one. Him.
• 1:21:59
  Sound fair? So I think we've we've
• 1:22:02
  definitely covered version twos. Shall we move on to Figura
• 1:22:09
  Obscura Predictions? If you still have the energy.
• 1:22:12
  If you want to pause, get a cup of tea, get your breath back,
• 1:22:16
  and we can go for Figura Obscura.
• 1:22:22
  My wallet is sobbing. I can hear it.
• 1:22:25
  I can hear it in the hall. Now it is breaking down crying.
• 1:22:28
  Tell you what it is. If you're going to buy all those
• 1:22:30
  we've just talked about, righty ho.
• 1:22:33
  Yeah. And now we've got Figure
• 1:22:36
  Obscura. So I've compiled some pictures
• 1:22:40
  from online based on what mostly from GameSpot I think isn't in
• 1:22:47
  the website. Based on what we've talked
• 1:22:49
  about. They have a great list of
• 1:22:51
  characters with with public domain license.
• 1:22:56
  So that's what we kind of looked at here, isn't it?
• 1:22:59
  Basically we were, you know we're not trying to put figure
• 1:23:02
  obscure characters that we know they'd have to pay license for
• 1:23:07
  because that's not the thing. So Mal Europe first here to go
• 1:23:10
  through yours, right. And there's a little bit of
• 1:23:14
  crossover, but we can we can talk about them when, when they
• 1:23:18
  come. But we actually were pretty good
• 1:23:21
  in how we picked here. So I've all got about six or
• 1:23:25
  seven. So just for the listeners
• 1:23:27
  benefits, so they know what to expect, right, Go for it, so.
• 1:23:31
  I'll go with what I think he's pretty much been said, yeah,
• 1:23:35
  without being said. So I think we're definitely
• 1:23:39
  going to get another one of the ghosts at some point this year,
• 1:23:42
  I actually think. I've got.
• 1:23:44
  I've got him. Hold on.
• 1:23:47
  Yeah. OK.
• 1:23:48
  So I mean, I suppose what we're really meant to be talking about
• 1:23:52
  here is what we think we'll get next.
• 1:23:54
  But I thought I'd mention this because I think we'll get this,
• 1:23:57
  but I think we'll get this the end of the year in that slot
• 1:24:01
  that they do, partly because it's big.
• 1:24:03
  They like, seem to like to do something a bit spooky around
• 1:24:06
  October. But also if it's the Christmas
• 1:24:10
  Carol and it's got everything, it's, you know, it's death
• 1:24:13
  essentially, isn't it? But there's Maxillius, the
• 1:24:17
  harvester. No.
• 1:24:18
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:24:19
  It's perfect. Yeah.
• 1:24:22
  So to explain the pictures we have here, the first one in the
• 1:24:25
  top left is from Scrooge the 1970 film, the one in the middle
• 1:24:30
  and the bottom is from Scrooged. The best version of this?
• 1:24:36
  Yeah. That's why I put it in everyone
• 1:24:38
  that says I know we have, I know we have fans of that movie
• 1:24:41
  within the podcast and the relationship.
• 1:24:44
  And the last one is from an ITV modern version of it.
• 1:24:50
  It's not Ross Kemp is not Ross Kemp.
• 1:24:52
  Yeah, Ross Kemp is not the Ghost of Christmas Preacher.
• 1:24:55
  He is Scrooge, or the Scrooge character and the little boy,
• 1:24:58
  It's the Ghost of Christmas. That that was hilarious.
• 1:25:03
  That's that's about as good as ITV sports coverage, isn't it?
• 1:25:06
  DM me. Well, the one anyway.
• 1:25:10
  Just the one in the I forget what T what TV channel did it,
• 1:25:16
  but it's B. It's on iPlayer over here.
• 1:25:18
  Yeah, BBC. Then.
• 1:25:22
  Is it iPlayer or night? But anyway, but.
• 1:25:24
  Anyway, they're not important. There's a more modern one that
• 1:25:26
  actually Eric referenced as being somewhat the cool for some
• 1:25:32
  of like Marley and the and the knock on the door and all this.
• 1:25:36
  Maybe I should the death in the Sorry to Death, The Christmas of
• 1:25:42
  Future or Christmas Yet to Come. He's a bit different in that
• 1:25:47
  one. He's a bit more shadowy and not
• 1:25:49
  quite so obviously death like, but yes, I.
• 1:25:53
  Also thought the one in The Muppets Christmas Carol looked
• 1:25:55
  very cool, but he was just basically a big black sheep
• 1:25:59
  black hood, right? So your first one here on my
• 1:26:03
  slides that I did with John Carter, yeah.
• 1:26:07
  These are the ones I'm like, well, what could we get soon?
• 1:26:10
  And I could see us in the next one.
• 1:26:12
  I could see us getting you see with figure obscure.
• 1:26:16
  It's so hard. It could be, we know it could be
• 1:26:19
  anything. But what I could see is John
• 1:26:22
  Carter from Mars because it fits legions cosmic and mythic.
• 1:26:27
  Brilliantly, you could little bit of a tweak and you could put
• 1:26:31
  it, put it in whatever collection and I know they're
• 1:26:33
  not too worried about that, but. Yeah, and the nice thing about
• 1:26:37
  this site I was looking up is it gives you a couple of different
• 1:26:41
  renditions of the character from different media.
• 1:26:44
  Excuse me, from different media. So yeah, he's a Confederate,
• 1:26:50
  Civil War veteran and gold miner who's transported to Mars and
• 1:26:55
  through the course of his own adventures, becomes a hero.
• 1:26:59
  Excuse me. And a Prince on the planet.
• 1:27:02
  Yes. So he's got sort of vibes of
• 1:27:04
  well yeah I mean various vibes doesn't he?
• 1:27:07
  Vibes of Conan or or you know that those sorts of characters
• 1:27:14
  or a bit more sci-fi and they give him a bit more sci-fi
• 1:27:19
  stuff. Get your home weapons.
• 1:27:23
  I mean there's one there. It looks like he's wearing a bit
• 1:27:25
  more of a space suit although actually it might meant to be
• 1:27:27
  his confederate jacket perhaps and one there he's wearing a bit
• 1:27:30
  looks a bit Prince of Persia where he's being chased by the
• 1:27:34
  the alien So in actually no he looks like I take that back.
• 1:27:39
  It's a bit like the he man, new adventures of he man kind of
• 1:27:44
  armour. Which?
• 1:27:46
  Something like, I love that. Quite cool.
• 1:27:47
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:27:48
  So yeah, I think he's a possibility.
• 1:27:51
  If not next, maybe in the future.
• 1:27:55
  Definitely cool. This one's really a werewolf.
• 1:28:02
  Well, this is on my what I want, but I don't think we're going to
• 1:28:05
  get it this year. Yeah.
• 1:28:07
  Yeah. So I think I'd love, as I know
• 1:28:09
  Rich Wood and yourself would. I'd love a werewolf at some
• 1:28:12
  point. I don't think this is going to
• 1:28:14
  be the next one by any means. I think we're probably a little
• 1:28:17
  way off this. I think sorry, I was going to
• 1:28:22
  say sorry. I think we're more likely to get
• 1:28:24
  a werewolf through mythic legions than we are through for
• 1:28:26
  Gear Obscure. He talked about there is
• 1:28:29
  definitely werewolves and mythos and that's what he's keen to do.
• 1:28:33
  So yeah, yeah, yeah, I think. Sorry, stealing your Thunder.
• 1:28:35
  No, no, it's. Fine, it's fine.
• 1:28:37
  If I had an evil goatee, I'd be stroking it.
• 1:28:40
  And twiddling the mustache. Oh yeah, now.
• 1:28:43
  Yeah, I think. I think he's spot on there.
• 1:28:45
  I think we're more likely to get it in legions.
• 1:28:49
  Yeah, this this reminds me. I mean the this veteran William
• 1:28:53
  figure from Fury Toys. That kind of is great and
• 1:28:57
  Monster forced not to forget. It's coming soon.
• 1:29:01
  We've got we. Can say soon it's gone back
• 1:29:03
  about 6 times. OK, it's a pity, right?
• 1:29:07
  To move on then. So werewolves, right?
• 1:29:10
  Here's another one you're hoping for.
• 1:29:11
  Yeah, I'd absolutely love them to do some Cthulhu style stuff,
• 1:29:16
  but I don't think it's something they'll go near for various
• 1:29:22
  reasons. I think possibly, partly just
• 1:29:28
  because it's so familiar, they might leave it alone.
• 1:29:32
  We'll see. Though I think if they did do
• 1:29:34
  it, it'd be excellent. Yep.
• 1:29:37
  Is he always really big? I I haven't really read anything
• 1:29:40
  about. I know the characters, I haven't
• 1:29:41
  read anything about it. Is it?
• 1:29:42
  Cthulhu. Well, I don't know if yeah,
• 1:29:44
  Cthulhu himself is, and various like the Great Old Ones are
• 1:29:48
  huge. Yeah they're ginormous.
• 1:29:51
  But there's all sorts of I don't just mean that.
• 1:29:53
  I mean you know anything Cthulhu related, which yeah, I don't
• 1:30:00
  think they will do. Right, The Three Musketeers.
• 1:30:05
  And you specifically said The Three Musketeers as a three
• 1:30:08
  pack. No, no, I just.
• 1:30:10
  I actually, I wouldn't. It's one of those.
• 1:30:13
  It's. Which one do you pick?
• 1:30:15
  I noticed Richard d'artagnan on his list.
• 1:30:17
  Yeah, I nearly got D'artagnan. Yeah, I went for the 4th
• 1:30:20
  Musketeer. Yeah, yeah, any of them.
• 1:30:22
  They're all really cool. It'd be.
• 1:30:24
  It'd be awesome. It was, funnily enough,
• 1:30:27
  mentioned on Legions Lounge, Was it?
• 1:30:33
  No, no. It might have been one of the
• 1:30:35
  one of the many shows that the Mythic Enablers are on that
• 1:30:38
  week. They Joe.
• 1:30:43
  Ben. Someone asked and Joe said he'd
• 1:30:45
  like the Musketeers and I Yeah, I'd love one of the Musketeers.
• 1:30:49
  I think it would just, it's just of course it would.
• 1:30:53
  Yeah, the sword types are just so different to anything, yeah,
• 1:30:56
  at the moment. Sword and Are we talking a lot
• 1:31:00
  of soft goods or are we talking more Marley types of coat
• 1:31:04
  jackets or? For me, something like what?
• 1:31:07
  Marley's Gossard work, Yeah. The design I've really, really
• 1:31:14
  like and really make me want. That means there's a French.
• 1:31:20
  I think they're doing a trilogy but the first one was called
• 1:31:24
  d'artagnan and they're doing and the second one's it's not going
• 1:31:30
  to but it's about it's it's her name is the is the name of the
• 1:31:35
  second one and they're doing that's going on at the moment
• 1:31:38
  not the moment. You know, the first one was a
• 1:31:39
  few years, a couple of years ago.
• 1:31:41
  Next one's due soon and the they're they're their outfit
• 1:31:45
  designs and that's so cool they look are.
• 1:31:47
  They the more modern type of leather type stuff.
• 1:31:51
  Or yeah, yeah. OK.
• 1:31:54
  I saw that when I was going through the different pictures
• 1:31:57
  that we've done the ghost of and then we have Long John Silver.
• 1:32:01
  This was also on your or is also yeah this is the last one few
• 1:32:05
  months. I think we're definitely going
• 1:32:07
  to get a pirate at some point. Whether we get I could see it
• 1:32:14
  sooner rather than later. But I and sorry, tramping on
• 1:32:19
  Rich a bit here but. No, it's one.
• 1:32:21
  I know Rich has sort of said he thinks Blackbeard would be cool
• 1:32:24
  and would be awesome, but I'm not sure it'll be Blackbeard
• 1:32:27
  that we get just because he's a real person or based on a real
• 1:32:30
  person. So I think we're more likely to
• 1:32:32
  get Long John Silver or Captain Hook.
• 1:32:38
  Either of them would be cool, actually.
• 1:32:40
  Quite like the idea of Captain Hook with a little hook.
• 1:32:43
  And if they wanted to push the boat out, he could come with a
• 1:32:45
  big TikTok. But I mean, they've been doing
• 1:32:49
  that sort of thing with the, you know, with the figure obscure,
• 1:32:54
  haven't they? You wouldn't be surprised to see
• 1:32:57
  an alligator the size or crocodile.
• 1:32:59
  Sorry, the size of the package in there.
• 1:33:03
  That'd be cool. Yeah no the more I think about
• 1:33:07
  it Mal the more I agree with you actually I think along John
• 1:33:09
  Silver in particular is more likely than than a Blackbeard
• 1:33:13
  just for literary sort of feel to and then you get peg leg as
• 1:33:15
  well obviously we should be would be superb.
• 1:33:19
  Yeah. So either either of those two, I
• 1:33:21
  did actually add another one more recently, so I know you're.
• 1:33:24
  OK. You might not tell us.
• 1:33:25
  Yeah, you can talk about it. I could see it's getting
• 1:33:27
  something more Eastern and this is based on there's been a bit
• 1:33:32
  of talk and Eric sort of commented he'd like to do more
• 1:33:35
  of that sort of stuff. So I could see us getting it's
• 1:33:39
  kind of fits with the pirate, although it's not pirate, it's a
• 1:33:41
  sailor, it's Sinbad or Aladdin kind of fits in with that as
• 1:33:47
  well. The sailor, sort of you know
• 1:33:50
  he's they're very sort of they all fit in the same world
• 1:33:55
  Aladdin and sing that they would be.
• 1:33:57
  Very good. I I believe Rich might have that
• 1:33:59
  covered as well here. Rich, do you want to start with
• 1:34:03
  possibly one of my number one once I didn't cover it now
• 1:34:07
  because you covered it. Yeah, I I I think this one
• 1:34:11
  possibly the most likely. I have all lawns on my list for
• 1:34:13
  the For the next one, I should say my list doesn't really have
• 1:34:16
  any Christmassy or horror stuff because I want to try and focus
• 1:34:18
  on what I think we're going to get.
• 1:34:20
  Absolutely, yeah. This time the pigsy.
• 1:34:24
  The bottom right picture is from the.
• 1:34:25
  American to the words, yeah. Yeah, amazing Japanese TV series
• 1:34:29
  of it. You know he's on the box art.
• 1:34:34
  It's. The one.
• 1:34:35
  The millionaire. You know you've got soft goods.
• 1:34:38
  You can have a cool rake weapon. I'd love to see what Eric would
• 1:34:42
  do with a sort of pig head as well.
• 1:34:43
  So and it would make sense to do pigsy.
• 1:34:46
  I mean, the only thing I guess is if they're not careful,
• 1:34:48
  they're not too careful. They might find themselves doing
• 1:34:51
  all Monkey King characters at this time of year.
• 1:34:53
  And then all the ghosts, yeah, And the Scrooge, all of a sudden
• 1:34:56
  they're tying themselves down to Stuff A.
• 1:34:58
  Little bit. So that's what.
• 1:35:00
  That's what would pull me away from this happening but would
• 1:35:04
  still be sweet. Yeah.
• 1:35:08
  Then we have Sinbad as Mad was. Mad was.
• 1:35:10
  Yeah, like Sinbad and I also had Alibaba sort of thing.
• 1:35:13
  So yeah, to devoid the sailor type stuff.
• 1:35:16
  Then you can have, you know, piles of treasure, loads of
• 1:35:19
  scope for soft goods, sort of flowing.
• 1:35:22
  You know the wider backyard trousers, even if they really
• 1:35:24
  wanted to go down more mesco sorts of of route.
• 1:35:28
  And it's also because we get a lot of new tooling which figure
• 1:35:31
  it's very hard to predict what you know what would be used for
• 1:35:35
  for these type of figures because they didn't generally do
• 1:35:39
  team to debut new parts apart from after Krampus.
• 1:35:42
  They when that was a success, they decided to, you know, use
• 1:35:46
  the tooling. Yeah, so I'd I'd love again the
• 1:35:52
  Middle Eastern sort of style and feel to stuff.
• 1:35:55
  Eric likes it. I'd love to see more of that in
• 1:35:57
  the line, any of the lines. But yeah, it could work here,
• 1:36:03
  this, yeah, Odysseus is is slightly more left field.
• 1:36:08
  It's probably the the least likely of the stuff that I've
• 1:36:10
  got, but it gives a chance to get Greek style armour and
• 1:36:15
  weapons. This is your area of expertise,
• 1:36:18
  or one of them? It is.
• 1:36:20
  I studied this at university. So the the ad in the oh God,
• 1:36:30
  what's it all called? He's so long in the civil
• 1:36:33
  service. Now he's.
• 1:36:34
  Got his education. Yeah.
• 1:36:36
  In the Odyssey. Yeah.
• 1:36:38
  So I know the background. I I really like the Greek style
• 1:36:42
  of stuff as well, sort of thing. It might be a bit too Mercurian,
• 1:36:45
  maybe if they wanted to go down a different route.
• 1:36:48
  But in terms of like a figure obscure and the accessories you
• 1:36:52
  could have, at one point Odysseus is strapped to the mast
• 1:36:56
  so he's not tempted by the sirens.
• 1:36:58
  So you could actually have a mast with him with like stuff to
• 1:37:00
  tie him to the mast. Sort of thing.
• 1:37:03
  Moving off, that would be a really cool accessory.
• 1:37:07
  And then maybe a cyclops head or a cyclops skull or something
• 1:37:10
  like that as well. OK, because that's in the.
• 1:37:13
  Do that, yeah. So just for the listeners here
• 1:37:18
  just to read the little blurb, Odysseus led his army in the
• 1:37:21
  Trojan War. After the war they encountered
• 1:37:24
  Sidon, God of the sea Cyclops, sirens, Cirrus.
• 1:37:31
  Is that Cirrus? And the Sea Dragons?
• 1:37:34
  After 20 years, he returned home to fight for his Kingdom and his
• 1:37:39
  queen. Just a bit nerd.
• 1:37:41
  I think that would be Cersei. Cersei.
• 1:37:43
  Sorry. OK, You shouldn't have told me.
• 1:37:46
  I wouldn't let you embarrass yourself first, slam you down
• 1:37:50
  afterwards. Fair again with this?
• 1:37:53
  Yes, there's there's the thing about him firing an arrow
• 1:37:55
  through lots of rings, sort of thing to prove that he he claims
• 1:38:00
  he is. I think they will presume he's
• 1:38:02
  dead and there's an impostor that's come back.
• 1:38:04
  Yeah, right, D'artagnan. D'artagnan, we've covered again.
• 1:38:11
  It's the soft goods, the different type of sword, a fancy
• 1:38:15
  beard. She's very under the beards
• 1:38:19
  tonight. I'm really under the beards,
• 1:38:20
  like I've got a giant beard myself.
• 1:38:22
  I'm going to say what I'm getting.
• 1:38:24
  Attached to tell you what. Give us a goatee for next week,
• 1:38:28
  Rich and my. Goatee wife would actually kill
• 1:38:32
  me, so. Right goatee rhymes with Don
• 1:38:35
  Coyote, so. I really like the idea of having
• 1:38:39
  Don Quixote, just just it was like a comedy element to it.
• 1:38:43
  So you could have pretty much any route you want to in terms
• 1:38:45
  of the look and that sort of thing.
• 1:38:46
  It's got the conquistas or sort of vibes generally, but you know
• 1:38:51
  you can come with a Lance, you could have like a the windmill
• 1:38:55
  sail accessory maybe, you know as he's trying to fight those.
• 1:39:01
  It just gives you lots of scope to do different things with and.
• 1:39:04
  I see from. The Halvo did a custom of it
• 1:39:06
  sort of thing, and it worked brilliantly in the sort of
• 1:39:08
  mythic. I'd love that was good,
• 1:39:09
  actually. And you can see here from the
• 1:39:14
  pictures he was in Deadpool. Can't make it some, I was.
• 1:39:16
  Going to say he's like Deadpool, the bottom, right?
• 1:39:17
  OK. Yeah, I didn't know that either.
• 1:39:21
  I'm sure our Deadpool fans can tell us and yeah, I'd be done
• 1:39:25
  for him. I mean, he might have to come
• 1:39:27
  with a horse then as well. So we're talking about Headless
• 1:39:30
  Horseman. That's.
• 1:39:30
  The other thing, yes, the cost would obviously then go up.
• 1:39:33
  Yeah, well, more money for them, less money for us, right?
• 1:39:38
  This one you need to you need to tell us more about because I
• 1:39:41
  rashes when you told us this. Yeah, he's a character from like
• 1:39:45
  19th century literature. Who is it?
• 1:39:47
  It's like a typical Alan Quartermain.
• 1:39:49
  So it's like a typical big game hunter type sort of character,
• 1:39:56
  you know, typical European in Africa sort of thing.
• 1:40:00
  But there's a couple of films in the 80s starring Richard
• 1:40:02
  Chamberlain as Alan Quartermain. Both really good films,
• 1:40:07
  actually. One of them was.
• 1:40:09
  Connery played him as well. Sean.
• 1:40:11
  Connery played him in the lead of Extraordinary Gentlemen,
• 1:40:13
  which was a God awful film. OK.
• 1:40:16
  So yeah, so let's skip past that bit.
• 1:40:19
  But no, you go out. Because I've not read it, but
• 1:40:25
  apparently the comic is very very good and the film was a let
• 1:40:28
  down so. Yeah, which happens an awful
• 1:40:32
  lot. Got the hands on stuff.
• 1:40:34
  Yeah, but here you can have like a Hunter's wide brimmed hat, you
• 1:40:37
  know that sort of typical look that you feel soft good safari
• 1:40:42
  outfit type hunter sort of look as well.
• 1:40:46
  Like a rifle and bullet belt. I'm not sure.
• 1:40:49
  I'm not sure whether that would be too far down the sort of
• 1:40:52
  route that the horsemen don't want to go in terms of guns and
• 1:40:56
  like hunting, trophy and all that sort of thing.
• 1:40:59
  They might not want to, but as a character and from the films, I
• 1:41:02
  love the films, so I would love to have fun go to me.
• 1:41:05
  Would you come with an opium accessory?
• 1:41:08
  Well, if they really want to push the boats out, they could
• 1:41:11
  do that, but. OK, cool.
• 1:41:14
  That's very unique. Definitely love that you come up
• 1:41:18
  with something like that and Long John Silver, which we
• 1:41:20
  talked about as well as most. Anyway, yeah.
• 1:41:24
  Hercules again, House of the Noble Bear.
• 1:41:30
  So this again is back to the Greek sort of thing.
• 1:41:32
  So you can have it gives you the option of doing like different
• 1:41:37
  shins and wrist straps to be more like that sort of Greek
• 1:41:40
  feel to it. He has a lion.
• 1:41:42
  Quite often he's portrayed with a lion head or lion pelt
• 1:41:47
  headdress sorts of things. That would be a really cool look
• 1:41:49
  as well and you'd have sandaled feet and bring those, so.
• 1:41:53
  He's a mixture of Attila and Atlas.
• 1:41:56
  No, not in any way, shape or form.
• 1:42:00
  The heck is wrong with you, but obviously he has all his trials
• 1:42:06
  and that as well, Hercules. So again, that gives you the
• 1:42:08
  option for like accessories and that sort of thing.
• 1:42:10
  Hercules would be a really cool one.
• 1:42:12
  Oh yeah. He was.
• 1:42:13
  He was on my list and then I saw you, he was on yours.
• 1:42:16
  So I I said that's fine, I'll leave him off.
• 1:42:19
  And awesome. Really awesome.
• 1:42:21
  Yeah, if you sold behind your head or something, that would be
• 1:42:24
  oh. Yeah, and then this is another
• 1:42:27
  great one. Yeah, this is my about this.
• 1:42:29
  I'm not doing horror, but Entry Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
• 1:42:35
  I would love love, love A2 pack so you'd have one skinnier
• 1:42:41
  build, maybe a 2.0 human again with sort of suit so you can go
• 1:42:47
  soft goods. Or you can just use some of the
• 1:42:49
  cloth arms they have at the moment and then a brute scale
• 1:42:53
  hide so just that bigger look, you know that.
• 1:42:57
  A more intimidating look. Or the other option is you can
• 1:43:01
  go one figure like a 1.0 scale with just different heads and
• 1:43:06
  then maybe a bigger torso for hide.
• 1:43:08
  I think you know if the the brute torso would would work
• 1:43:11
  fine with the 1.0 arms and that sort of thing.
• 1:43:14
  So just you know, you can just swap the torso on and just have
• 1:43:16
  a bigger torso with a different head sculpt.
• 1:43:19
  I I thought about this one because it fitted with that sort
• 1:43:22
  of gothic horror that they seem to be going down that route with
• 1:43:26
  some of the figures more than yeah, you know, when it comes to
• 1:43:29
  horror. Otherwise, I might have to wait
• 1:43:31
  till Halloween for it. But yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:43:37
  I think it gives us the option for a top hat, like a longer
• 1:43:41
  coat sort of thing, which I think would be cool things and
• 1:43:43
  like little potion bottles as well.
• 1:43:45
  And then people can take one of the potion bottles and give it
• 1:43:47
  to swig, maybe, and then calm down about that.
• 1:43:50
  Maybe we'll get back to having one swig.
• 1:43:55
  Take one swig of that and we're back down to one swig, right?
• 1:44:01
  Here's my list. So number one is my favorite
• 1:44:05
  character from childhood. I can't count the number of
• 1:44:08
  sticks I carved and bent and put string between as a kid and
• 1:44:14
  pretended to be Robin Hood. Between the amazing Robin of
• 1:44:19
  Sherwood series on British television and then the Kevin
• 1:44:23
  Costner movie, there was another movie around the same time with
• 1:44:25
  the What's his name? Can't remember the one I went to
• 1:44:30
  the cinema to see. I thought I was going to see the
• 1:44:33
  other one. Oh, it's the Irish actor, isn't
• 1:44:35
  it? In the Yeah, Patrick.
• 1:44:36
  Bergen does it, yes. So anyway, Robin Hood?
• 1:44:40
  Awesome. They already have the parts,
• 1:44:42
  pretty much. I mean, they could do a unique
• 1:44:43
  head sculpt, but other than that, everything is there.
• 1:44:48
  He'd be great soft goods or no soft goods.
• 1:44:52
  Any era of them, you know? Not sure the men in tights one
• 1:44:57
  would be too excited about. Yeah, we need a Dread Pirate,
• 1:45:03
  Robert, so they need to do a carry, Ells head sculpt.
• 1:45:06
  Yeah, and you know, accessories, you know, big pile of money in a
• 1:45:12
  bag, you know, bunch of gold coins, that kind of stuff.
• 1:45:16
  As well as the obviously your bow and your arrows and.
• 1:45:19
  Could this was like the Robin Hood too?
• 1:45:22
  Could this lead to the same sort of conundrum with some of the
• 1:45:24
  other ones where if you do Robin Hood, all of a sudden you need
• 1:45:27
  to do fry tuck? Yeah, little job of.
• 1:45:29
  Course people's and then? All of a sudden, they're taking
• 1:45:31
  up several places in there. But they don't think they're
• 1:45:35
  going to do that. I think Figure obscure is about
• 1:45:37
  the main character. Now the ghosts might might be
• 1:45:41
  different, but the way to do the ghosts next is to probably do
• 1:45:46
  them in a three pack or whatever.
• 1:45:48
  You know, like just do do a kind of pack that covers all the
• 1:45:53
  characters and then if you want to buy two of the pack to get
• 1:45:56
  your 3 ghosts, whatever. Well, I could see them doing two
• 1:46:01
  of them together because I can't remember which one it is.
• 1:46:05
  I think the Ghost of Christmas Past is a like a little impeach
• 1:46:10
  sort of childlike character. So yeah, that with something
• 1:46:15
  else they'd. Probably do, wouldn't they?
• 1:46:17
  That would be good, right? This was another cool one.
• 1:46:23
  Red Riding Hood and Wolf. So just a Red Riding Hood here,
• 1:46:27
  but it would be the Red Riding Hood and Wolf in the two pack as
• 1:46:31
  you see here. Down the bottom of the pictures
• 1:46:33
  look a bit different. This one in the middle to bring
• 1:46:36
  in from another place because it was just lots of sexy versions
• 1:46:41
  of Red Riding Hood in these pictures.
• 1:46:43
  Which OK fine, but that's not my Red Riding Hood and even the one
• 1:46:46
  here is looking a bit sexy. But the wolf and the kind of
• 1:46:50
  other picture here the wolf in the bed with the the thingy on
• 1:46:55
  the the woman's, the old. Little Granny's hand.
• 1:46:59
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. If they did what I would.
• 1:47:02
  Die a happy man when my time came, I tell you, like a yeah.
• 1:47:07
  And even the the main picture here at the top is the wolf is
• 1:47:10
  awesome And then you have this really like you know play by
• 1:47:13
  model Red Riding Hood which is like no thanks.
• 1:47:17
  And then you have this really sinister looking one with the
• 1:47:19
  blood in her face which is again probably no thanks.
• 1:47:22
  I'm more towards this old fashioned version would be
• 1:47:26
  amazing. There's a there's a Teen Titans
• 1:47:31
  episode, the cartoon there, where they're telling folk
• 1:47:35
  stories and one of them is Red Riding Hood, but she eats the
• 1:47:38
  wolf the other way around. She's just got this insatiable
• 1:47:41
  appetite. So he eats the wolf and then has
• 1:47:43
  to look after his family because that must be.
• 1:47:46
  That must be from that genre of story.
• 1:47:49
  So you'd be happy if you had Red Riding Hood and that as.
• 1:47:54
  Long as the Wolves included as well, yeah.
• 1:47:57
  I think it's essential. Yeah, yeah, be awesome.
• 1:48:02
  King Arthur is a great one. I mean, more Knights, please.
• 1:48:08
  I know you could say oh you have enough Knights and mythic and
• 1:48:11
  blah blah blah, but this would just be a cool one.
• 1:48:15
  And the sword and stone, the accessory sort of thing, yeah.
• 1:48:19
  That'd be awesome. And if you really want to go
• 1:48:21
  crazy, the round tables. Oh yeah, and then you just.
• 1:48:28
  Like. And then you just buy for, you
• 1:48:31
  know, also possible. But yeah, if you had their own
• 1:48:35
  table then you have a great. Display piece for they could do
• 1:48:38
  a round table as a bath piece in all future figure obscuras so
• 1:48:42
  you couldn't see it in the box. It wouldn't just it wouldn't
• 1:48:44
  distract from the the visual image you've got, but if you
• 1:48:46
  wanted to open it, there's a little part of a round table
• 1:48:48
  that you can add. Just keep going.
• 1:48:50
  Like a little pizza slice of around table.
• 1:48:53
  I've opened my Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and I've got another
• 1:48:56
  piece of table and hit my ghosts and only another six figure.
• 1:48:59
  Obscuras. And I've got a round table, and
• 1:49:04
  it comes with a stool, obviously.
• 1:49:05
  Each each table piece comes with a stool, obviously.
• 1:49:08
  Yeah, yeah. OK, Hercules, You covered.
• 1:49:11
  Rich. I had to keep it in because I
• 1:49:13
  really think it's cool. And I'd really wanted in that
• 1:49:18
  first picture on the bottom row here that people are looking.
• 1:49:21
  It's the kind of more barbarian with the as Rich was described.
• 1:49:25
  Not to Barbarian. Yeah, but Barbarian looking with
• 1:49:30
  the kind of the headpiece, the the lion mane headpiece.
• 1:49:35
  Amazing. I think if the horsemen were to
• 1:49:39
  do it would be maybe more of a helmet he type thing.
• 1:49:43
  Then we move on to the tiger from the Monkey King.
• 1:49:47
  I found out his name is the Vanguard Tiger and the best
• 1:49:50
  picture. The only good picture I could
• 1:49:52
  really find him was from the box art of the figure Obscura.
• 1:49:57
  But I mean, look at that figure. I mean just a tiger and excuse
• 1:50:00
  to get a tiger. Yeah figure from them.
• 1:50:04
  It's awesome. And you know you want to
• 1:50:08
  werewolf Mal. There's your web werewolf arms
• 1:50:12
  out there. Yeah, you start to get parts for
• 1:50:15
  other things as well, so yeah, that'd be cool.
• 1:50:19
  Yeah, so he'd probably be just because I'm a cat person, you'd
• 1:50:24
  probably be higher on my list than Pixie, but I would also be
• 1:50:27
  delighted with Pixie, if you can forgive me, Rich.
• 1:50:31
  No, that's I would love this character.
• 1:50:32
  I don't have no problem if they did him or on the Pixie.
• 1:50:34
  Yeah, and again he has a cool kind of almost like a machete
• 1:50:38
  type sword looking like they're in the picture.
• 1:50:40
  So you know another sword. And then my last one there.
• 1:50:45
  Also Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. He said it best but this is this
• 1:50:50
  would be an awesome selection for figure obscure and you could
• 1:50:55
  really go so many ways with it. As you said 2 pack or the half
• 1:51:00
  head type of thing here like they have is also funny
• 1:51:04
  representation or you know swappable face masks that kind
• 1:51:08
  of stuff. But yeah the two scale character
• 1:51:13
  that's the the ultimate level here so.
• 1:51:16
  Yeah. I think I talked about potion
• 1:51:18
  bottles, but you could actually have a spilt potion bottle too.
• 1:51:20
  So he's taking it and then dropped it on the floor because
• 1:51:23
  they've done the puddle of blood obviously so much.
• 1:51:25
  And you could have swig coming in the back door, though it's on
• 1:51:28
  the floor. I'm not sure you want Swig
• 1:51:32
  coming back. That's that's a very different
• 1:51:37
  take on the story, yeah. Right, that was us.
• 1:51:43
  I did ask you to read the. 1000 swig story Now it sounds like a
• 1:51:46
  gang bang. I'm not.
• 1:51:47
  I'm not going down that route. I did ask our patrons for their
• 1:52:03
  answers, for what figure obscures they'd want.
• 1:52:06
  So I'll read it. I'll read those on our discord.
• 1:52:09
  They sent us messages, so Dave Derrick says.
• 1:52:14
  The Jersey Devil, he says. He says some things about the
• 1:52:21
  residents of New Jersey that they talk a lot about it.
• 1:52:27
  Maybe not. Maybe too much his opinion, but
• 1:52:31
  let's say we love everyone from New Jersey and we visit there
• 1:52:34
  every November and we've always if.
• 1:52:36
  We have a Jersey Devil. Would it come with the freeway
• 1:52:38
  section as one of the accessories?
• 1:52:40
  Because that's New Jersey. Isn't there just freeways
• 1:52:42
  everywhere? Seems to be where we end up
• 1:52:45
  anyway, yeah? Where we are, yeah, absolutely.
• 1:52:47
  I did like I preferred last year's hotel, but the location
• 1:52:52
  of the previous one because you could walk from it, you know
• 1:52:54
  what I mean? Anyway, so for some so they and
• 1:53:02
  he says they think it's more famous than Bigfoot.
• 1:53:05
  Luck next month, Sir. Combined.
• 1:53:07
  Hopefully this has not affected Eric's brain.
• 1:53:10
  So far we've managed to see more literary, literary in your
• 1:53:15
  obscure. I'd love to see Sherlock Holmes,
• 1:53:17
  Robin Hood, Kanesh, Ganesh or Wizard of Oz.
• 1:53:21
  And they're all cool ones have to say.
• 1:53:24
  The Wizard of Oz is one that I wouldn't mind, but again, it's
• 1:53:27
  that problem of who do you do and what you do and all that.
• 1:53:32
  I'd love anything sort of Scarecrow related.
• 1:53:35
  It's kind of cool, but really, if you can do it was you.
• 1:53:38
  It's Dorothy, isn't it? If you're not all the Wizard, I
• 1:53:41
  suppose. Yeah.
• 1:53:43
  For sure. And then I think Sherlock Holmes
• 1:53:48
  would be cool as well, but it would be really stepping outside
• 1:53:51
  the parts of what do we have, you know, You know, that would
• 1:53:56
  really be. But again, that's their problem
• 1:53:58
  to solve I would say. And again these opium pipe that
• 1:54:04
  sort of stuff that. Oh yeah, we could have a whole
• 1:54:06
  opium team figures here. Yeah, yeah, and right.
• 1:54:16
  And then we have Jeremy Gouvier, he says.
• 1:54:21
  I'm hoping for Native American folklore like Coyote, Wendigo,
• 1:54:26
  Skinwalker, or maybe some Aztec mythology I'm not at all
• 1:54:30
  familiar with. So that's awesome.
• 1:54:33
  It's also cool that people, I think after a couple of the
• 1:54:36
  figures that we've got so far, they're not too worried about
• 1:54:40
  knowing the property that that that it is.
• 1:54:44
  They just know that they'll get a cool figure and it'll maybe
• 1:54:48
  get them more interested in in the in the property, you know?
• 1:54:54
  When what? Does that make sense?
• 1:54:55
  When we got the grey body, I did wonder if that might be the the
• 1:55:01
  body we need to get something like a Wendigo because it's
• 1:55:04
  usually. Like.
• 1:55:07
  Yeah. But I do think they could lean
• 1:55:10
  into more Native Americans again.
• 1:55:13
  It's surprised, You know, they, as Wyatt has told us, they have
• 1:55:17
  Sherry, who's Native American, in their team, so she'd be able
• 1:55:22
  to advise them on any sort of cultural sensitivity stuff so
• 1:55:28
  they wouldn't be stepping on any any toes there.
• 1:55:30
  So it could be really awesome, right?
• 1:55:36
  And Kevin and Boots, he says. Red Riding Hood and Wolf.
• 1:55:42
  So we've covered that. Kevin, hope you're happy with
• 1:55:47
  our suggestions. Then we have Ralph he Al he.
• 1:55:52
  We also asked about version 2's but most of them focused on the
• 1:55:56
  figure obscura so hope they managed to get through the first
• 1:55:59
  half of the episode. OK Balaam is his favorite for
• 1:56:04
  version 2 with less armor and some of the new magic stuff from
• 1:56:09
  Fox's wave. And I think as we said more
• 1:56:11
  animal parts. So like the claws.
• 1:56:13
  Maybe even Unarmored Arms or something would be cool.
• 1:56:19
  Figure obscurity like something Western style.
• 1:56:22
  So we talked a bit about Western legions before Buffalo Bill,
• 1:56:26
  Wilderp, Lucky Luke or An American Werewolf.
• 1:56:29
  So they're all awesome choices, I think.
• 1:56:33
  No, no, definitely right. Matt, you also sent me through
• 1:56:39
  the Doug Tanyon stuff from that movie, so I really like that
• 1:56:44
  look. Yeah, that's that's slightly
• 1:56:45
  different to what I was talking about.
• 1:56:46
  That's way better. And so with the leather boots,
• 1:56:51
  here we go with your leather boots.
• 1:56:53
  Yeah, exactly. Yeah, we've got them from, We've
• 1:56:56
  got them from Marley and. I'm slightly obsession with
• 1:57:00
  leather boots. Imagine he's got he's got a
• 1:57:02
  folder on his computer, just leather boots.
• 1:57:04
  Just an action. Figures.
• 1:57:05
  It's like all there. An action figure that Aramis is
• 1:57:09
  the third one from this side and he's got the actual Mali style
• 1:57:13
  boots on. Oh yeah.
• 1:57:16
  Oh yeah, he does. Doesn't he?
• 1:57:17
  So yeah, and that. Pick the hat.
• 1:57:19
  Are awesome as well. Yeah, yeah, that was.
• 1:57:22
  Well, when they're wearing them as well, they'll be floppy hats
• 1:57:25
  with the feathers and the yeah. So then that picture, it's
• 1:57:29
  d'artagnan at the front, Porthos next to him, Aramis next to him
• 1:57:33
  and Athos. No, got that.
• 1:57:38
  I forgot that the right way around.
• 1:57:41
  Is the older? Rich Can you remember older,
• 1:57:43
  older ones? I can't remember it to be
• 1:57:46
  honest. No, Yeah.
• 1:57:47
  Yeah, I'm sure I've got that the right way around, but.
• 1:57:49
  Yeah, let's be confident. Go with it.
• 1:57:54
  Right Yoho, Right. I think that's all we have.
• 1:58:00
  My last piece of advice for everyone is to avoid Retro
• 1:58:04
  Troy's Hamburg on eBay, who are sculpting the rare figures from
• 1:58:10
  the mystery boxes. Now are all the figures Red
• 1:58:13
  Shield soldier. If you open with them, it's 155.
• 1:58:15
  Cador is 200, Godfrey's 200, so they'll never sell.
• 1:58:19
  So best of luck to you. Official retailers well for
• 1:58:23
  horsemen. So you know, maybe I don't know
• 1:58:25
  what your policy is on that, but it's not cool.
• 1:58:28
  No respect for the community there.
• 1:58:29
  With those prices, you can charge what you like, but like,
• 1:58:33
  you know, come on. Yeah, they're just trying to
• 1:58:37
  hope somebody hasn't realized that there's been a recent
• 1:58:40
  mystery box sale and they can just charge over there like.
• 1:58:42
  Yeah, exactly. It's like they've, yeah, always
• 1:58:45
  come across these rare figures. It's like, no, you just spent
• 1:58:48
  money that you got off some more poor fortunate that overpaid for
• 1:58:52
  a valiant night off you and now you're you're trying to scout
• 1:58:56
  them on this. Yeah.
• 1:58:58
  So I hope they got the thousands swigs in their mystery boxes.
• 1:59:08
  All righty, on that positive note, let's get out of here.
• 1:59:11
  Thanks for that boys. That was fun.
• 1:59:13
  Predictions are always fun, I find, and hopefully we get to be
• 1:59:18
  proved wrong very soon. Fingers crossed.
• 1:59:24
  We want some more money to be given away, our money to the
• 1:59:28
  forest and. Stay safe, everybody.
• 1:59:30
  Don't crash your car while you're trying to think what a
• 1:59:32
  bigger obscure will come out. None.
