110. The Worst Characters Ever · The Euro Legions Podcast

0:02
My wallet is sobbing. I can hear it.
0:04
I can hear it in the hall now. It is breaking down crying.
0:08
It turns out that Attila the arrogant so and so he's got a
0:11
fake hammer. Oh.
0:13
A fake. Yeah, whoa.
0:15
As I say, Dick. Welcome to episode 110 of the
0:21
Allegiance Podcast. We're back again this week for
0:25
another chat. We're got a pretty fun subject
0:29
this week. Rich, what did you come up with?
0:31
This is things that we really wouldn't want to see in mythics,
0:35
cosmics, or for your obscure and races that just aren't suitable
0:40
for particular roles and that sort of stuff.
0:43
So just the worst possible characters you could the.
0:45
Worst. Yeah, Basically, yeah.
0:47
The thing of nightmares, we thought, as it was close to
0:49
April Fools. And let's give something that we
0:51
presume as a joke if someone suggested it.
0:53
It's such a bad idea, so. OK.
0:56
Now, if you're currently customizing a figure like this,
0:58
we apologize. Yes, yeah, absolutely.
1:01
This is our, this is our opinion.
1:02
It's nobody else's. Yeah.
1:04
The the the one of mine, I'm like, I'm going to say it, but
1:07
I'm ready to be proved wrong. I love it.
1:13
And how are you boys? Otherwise, all good this week.
1:18
Yeah, it's, I mean, you know, got through April Fools that
1:21
been pranked by anyone, so that was something.
1:23
Got through April the 1st without being pinch punched
1:25
first day of the month by my daughter.
1:26
That was an improvement over the last few months.
1:28
So yeah. Oh good, one of the benefits of
1:33
not having kids. She probably.
1:37
Pinches and punches too. It's no like gentle pretend,
1:39
it's like your dad. You can take it apparently.
1:43
So yeah. You're just so punchable, rich,
1:45
a lot of people. Say that I got on those faces.
1:51
Yeah, I'm. I'm all good.
1:52
I'm all good. Yeah, as ever, Yeah.
1:56
Recovered from the movie quiz I I haven't.
1:59
No, I'm, I'm, I'm still going over with them, some of them in
2:02
my mind going that can't be right.
2:04
That can't be right. It's right, but it can't be
2:07
right. The Internet has been wrong.
2:11
Oh, I I'm not doing any of that. I'm just like where did he get
2:14
the questions from and why do I know nothing?
2:17
I even went and checked, I even went and checked that Burgess
2:23
Meredith most definitely hadn't been in a in a a Jaws movie,
2:27
because after it, I was like, that would have been really good
2:29
casting. Yeah, no, that's, you know,
2:36
that's just off off the top of my head stuff, so.
2:41
Unbelievable. Yeah, all that's in there.
2:43
Yeah, I'm sure. Yeah.
2:46
I mean the next, if it makes you feel better, the next quiz we do
2:49
will be more toy and Legion based again Sir.
2:53
Right. OK, you're already working on
2:55
it. Already started it dude, there's
2:57
no messing around. I'm just going to do a movie
3:01
quiz with just like my favorite movies is simple questions.
3:06
There was a broad spectrum there, spoiler alert.
3:09
But somebody got 43 out of 50. It can't be that difficult.
3:15
I think you'd be fed the answers.
3:19
I was never as happy as when he got his first one wrong.
3:21
I was oh thank God, this is an absolute fix.
3:26
What is the name of the lead character in Lethal Weapon?
3:29
You know, that's the kind of level we want.
3:33
Next time, John, I will make sure that one's in there.
3:38
What's the middle name of the lead character in Lethal Weapon?
3:42
And I'm not going to tell you which the two lead characters
3:44
I'm looking for. It's up to you to figure that
3:45
out in my mind as well. Only one of them has a middle
3:48
name. It's in one tiny scene in one
3:52
tiny frame. It's when he's ID falls in the
3:55
ground there and that scene in the the 4th one that nobody
4:00
watched. Oh, that's an idea I might do
4:03
little movie stills, just really random ones go right.
4:06
Which film is this so? That would be fun.
4:09
That would be fun. You'd have to get.
4:11
What you'd have to do is get random stills but from well
4:15
known movies. Oh yeah, yeah.
4:16
Absolutely. No, I think that would be good.
4:19
Yeah. I used to listen to the Rest of
4:22
History podcast. I am, although I'm I'm, I never
4:26
listen to the latest stuff, it's always the older sort of stuff.
4:28
OK. But they've been out the other
4:30
day, which which I remember thinking like, oh, when that
4:32
whole series is done, I'm going to listen to that.
4:34
Come on, where it was now? Just listened to four.
4:36
They did a four episode series on the road to 1066.
4:40
Oh well, I was very much something I'd be interested in.
4:43
Yeah, I I was, it was a little bit like my movie knowledge is
4:47
like I thought I knew more than I did.
4:51
So history quiz next time then? This is what you're saying.
4:53
No, no, you have to be very nerdy and I'm probably forgotten
4:57
it all anyway. Yeah, my history is terrible.
5:00
I'd be embarrassing. Shall we get a little update on
5:05
the dragon? See how it's going?
5:06
So this dragon will be finishing this Sunday night as this is
5:12
released. So it's a Sunday, the 7th of
5:16
April, believe 11:00 PM American time.
5:21
And so if you do it before Sunday night over this part of
5:25
the world, you're, you're good to go.
5:27
So watch that exchange rate. So as of now, we're recording on
5:32
midweek. The two accessory packs are
5:36
funded, the Sir Vinegar is funded.
5:41
So I think we're we're pretty much where we want to be.
5:46
Yeah, at the minimum mouth. Yeah, this was kind of like this
5:50
is where I'm, you know, anything more than this, it would be
5:53
lovely. But this is what I wanted in
5:55
terms of feeling like I'm getting, you know, value.
6:01
Yeah, this is where the value is, isn't it?
6:02
Yeah. And there he is there in all his
6:08
glory, Sir Bendinger with the soft goods.
6:11
So I think they're around 2600 or so as you speak.
6:16
And the next unlock is the skeleton at 3000.
6:19
So that might happen over the weekend.
6:23
There'll be lots of mythic content I think on YouTube over
6:27
the weekend, so look out for that.
6:28
If you want to follow along. There's the add on set Fiery
6:34
Breath with everything. So that's a sweet one.
6:39
I think a lot of people like that.
6:41
That is the one that has had more people buying it than the
6:45
other one by a little bit and they can see why it's just And
6:49
there is some people like even Ben Kostanovich from our
6:53
Patreon, he's buying just this on its own.
6:56
Yeah, because he has no, he's bit like riches enough space for
6:59
the dragon. Doesn't want to or spend that
7:02
much money on the dragon. But he can have a a cool burning
7:05
night and a dial kind of piece here for a display, which I
7:09
think if you're happy with that, it's it's a good idea and you
7:12
and you still get to join in on the phone.
7:15
Yep, you get a cool, cool figure with it as well.
7:18
Probably yeah, the second for me, the second coolest,
7:22
actually, probably joint first coolest figure.
7:25
Yeah, in I think the that night along with Ben Agar, a top top
7:30
notch figures even. Absolutely.
7:32
Yeah, on their own. Absolutely.
7:36
And then there was the wing set, so it was the zombie action
7:41
zombie that is unlocked there. Plus then you get all the extra
7:47
bits, which is the shield, two extra heads, an extra pair of
7:50
hands and a sword. So lots of stuff there.
7:56
Yeah, I must make the action. Zombie is probably the thing I'm
7:59
least bothered about. I'd preferred the ashen skeleton
8:07
to the ashen zombie or sorry, crisp, whatever I call it,
8:10
crispy skeleton. It's not crispy skeleton, is it?
8:13
But the bird skeleton to the ashen zombie.
8:15
But it's the extra, isn't it on top of the wings.
8:21
So I'm not going to complain about it.
8:23
So having just absolutely, I don't think it was really a
8:27
complaint with it. Yeah, so.
8:32
I I mean, I know it's probably because of the fact that, you
8:36
know, it's pro prototype shape stage, but I wish they were able
8:40
to show the epic wings more because there is a bit of
8:45
confusion with from people as to how these work or how epic they
8:50
are. I think we have the basic idea
8:52
that if you're probably going to do it in the flight poles,
8:55
you'll want these. Yeah, and they are huge.
8:59
Very, very big. They are using the measurements
9:03
that Chris gave on for a show clock.
9:07
I started, I measured up because I was thinking that I would
9:10
perhaps get bring these home from Legions called ask someone
9:15
to ship them in the States, but they wouldn't even fit in the
9:18
suitcase. So they are going to be big, I
9:24
think you know. Big, big.
9:28
But you kind of have to wonder that you have to maybe decide if
9:31
you're going to use them or not with that, you know?
9:33
Yeah, I must admit I've probably been a bit silly buying them
9:36
because I'm really not sure I will use them.
9:38
Although as a little part of me likes the idea of hanging the
9:42
dragon from the ceiling with the wings outstretched, and it might
9:45
be the most practical place to put it at this point.
9:50
But yeah, I, I, I just kind of went, it was that one of those
9:55
I'm spending all this money, I might as well go all in, you
9:58
know? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:00
But if you if you are thinking of the two sets to get between,
10:05
I think the furry 1 is probably. Yeah, I mean, I mean, I mean, I
10:09
mean it's I'm, you know, I'm very openly say because of that
10:12
obviously are people out there who are like, oh, they haven't
10:14
got the money. I'm in a situation where I have
10:17
the money available. It's actually become available
10:20
recently and I've only got me to worry about, haven't I?
10:26
It's not like I've got my family.
10:27
Yeah. What you spend all this money on
10:29
so I can? Afford to be your answerable to
10:33
yourself. Yeah, yeah, I can afford to be a
10:35
bit frivolous, so I've have been.
10:38
Yeah, and I think, I think, yeah, you might as well go for
10:42
it if you're going for it, if you can.
10:45
Yeah. And then we did get this fella
10:47
teased. So Beta, is Fury currently
10:50
locked? So we just have a silhouette
10:53
here. Yeah.
10:54
And it's, umm, obviously they, we know that's using the
10:57
pauldrons again. And then for me it looks like a
11:01
knight of some sort. Yeah, he does, doesn't it?
11:04
It looks like it's possibly using the uh oh, actually now.
11:09
Dark Templar book his helmet maybe?
11:11
Well, I actually now think that they are leather boots and oh,
11:19
no, maybe not. But it almost looks like they're
11:21
the they're the the lower leg piece that's got the leather on
11:27
the back. Oh yeah.
11:29
Do you know what I mean? It's that sort of isn't it?
11:32
Yeah, yeah, yeah. The Bardrick sort of or or
11:35
Imbala kind of. Would be surprised though.
11:38
Yeah, no, no, I, I, well, the feet look like they're the
11:45
chainmail, the metallic, the smaller sort of feet, don't
11:48
they? So yeah, I think like you're
11:50
right. I think it's another night body
11:52
essentially. Isn't it?
11:53
Yeah, because maybe the Parks is torso would be cool here.
11:59
Yeah, You see, I think that's the the one that comes with.
12:05
Oh no, looks slightly narrower, doesn't it?
12:09
I was going to say I think that's the one that comes with
12:15
name the Org and Magnus. Oh yeah, yeah, Magnus 4 So it's
12:20
like. It's although that might be the
12:22
top of the the waves piece. That's very hard to I think it's
12:25
it's almost it's impossible for those pieces.
12:29
I'm just you know, we'd see the bat wings again helmet look
12:32
square like the bucket helmet. So yeah, I think that's where we
12:35
are with that. But yeah, Rich has had small
12:40
technical issues. So what we're going to do is
12:42
we're going to come back in a SEC and talk worst characters
12:48
ever. Hello there, this is your guy
12:51
can't pull collects and you are listening to the Euro Legion.
12:54
So cheeky fellas, right? Rich is back so we can talk
12:59
worst characters of all time that we've just made-up.
13:03
No worst characters that you would possibly see in mythos
13:08
because Miriam, Figure Obscura and maybe some random ones who
13:13
knows. So, Rich, kick us off there.
13:16
You're the. OK, you pulled up the on the
13:19
screen job. Yeah, yeah.
13:21
You want to put it full screen there?
13:22
Yeah. No, just no.
13:26
You've dropped the comic Sons. Have I ever heard?
13:30
Yes. There we go.
13:31
Everybody run. I've only done this like five
13:33
times recently. So.
13:36
So the worst ideas? Yeah, this.
13:40
What the heck is this? So, so this to me would be
13:43
madness. So this is a cosmic legions
13:44
thing. And if 4 horsemen decided, you
13:48
know what do you know what's a really good idea?
13:49
We're going to have a planet which is ruled by a race of
13:52
sentient hand puppets. So we're going to do really
13:56
detailed called hand puppet hands.
13:58
What's the character bring? And we're going to put them on
14:00
most boring bodies imaginable. Hence the the Tusk sentry on the
14:05
picture here with the little Penguin and the little monster
14:07
hand puppets. All the pain, tap in the hand
14:10
puppets. Yeah, basically.
14:11
No pain ABS on the finger itself, just, you know, grey and
14:14
then these amazing looking hand puppets.
14:16
So no, that would be a terrible, terrible idea.
14:19
Where does this idea come from? This just popped into my head
14:22
out of nowhere. Well, I was we were talking
14:27
about topics, weren't we? And it just suddenly popped.
14:29
It's like, oh, hand puppet. Oh yeah, yeah, I was just away.
14:34
Unbelievable. Now I have to say with it being
14:36
cosmic I am open to anything in cosmic.
14:40
So if they want to do with this. Don't be wrong, I'd probably buy
14:47
it if they did. As I say with some of mine.
14:53
What was the the the particular hand puppets Here we've got a
14:56
Penguin and a. And a monster I just, I just.
15:00
Giraffe monster. Yeah, I it could be from
15:03
something, I don't know. I just googled hand puppets and
15:04
those two seemed appropriate choices.
15:08
Yeah, they look fairly generic. Think about now, I think they
15:11
had an evil hand puppet on Red dwarf episodes maybe that's been
15:16
stuck in the back of my head for years.
15:18
Remember MAD and was talking through a hand puppet?
15:21
What about like a troll scale figure with a hand puppet on it?
15:25
No, no. No, not.
15:27
The one you can actually use a hand puppy yourself.
15:29
No, just yes. This would be crazy.
15:34
I would accept me quite a lot if it came out.
15:36
Yeah, I think you're safe. I think you're safe, yeah.
15:39
We're going, we're going. We could go crazy aliens, but
15:41
now we're going to do hand puppets.
15:43
OK, well we don't have pictures, man, so we can come back.
15:48
Yeah, we haven't been that crazy.
15:50
What do you want me to go 1st? I have a maybe a few more.
15:54
So I've gone for pretty much comedy value, but a priest in
16:00
the order of Ethron who has Tourettes that.
16:08
Would be much more. Give him a little pole chord.
16:11
Yeah, yeah. A little like, like.
16:14
Speech bubbles that you can attach to the side.
16:17
So there's like, you know, swearing.
16:18
He's just, he's just constantly repenting for his sins.
16:23
That's all he does. He can't do anything else.
16:26
He's only got 1 pose which is just kneeling and praying.
16:29
I'm sorry, it's. Just a statue, No.
16:33
Yeah, yeah. And you know, I love the order
16:39
reader on so maybe this this thing would be right up my
16:43
street. Yeah.
16:44
And you just have the disgusted look on the faces of all the
16:47
other figures constantly. He'd make a great addition to
16:53
the game, right Mel? What you got?
16:59
Right, so I'm going to leave a more controversial and serious
17:02
one till later and go whoever stick with the humor and go with
17:07
a character with one leg and foot.
17:10
And I'm not talking about a PED leg, you know I'm not talking
17:12
about when he's got I'm talking about literally one leg 1 foot
17:18
and has to hop around. Terrible would not stand up.
17:22
It just looks silly. Would it stand up better than a
17:25
2.0? Was it 2.02 point 01 leg?
17:32
Have we got an idea of race here or?
17:35
Any anything you say. Now I realize people would say
17:39
snails, and I don't know if people are aware of this, but a
17:42
snail is going to have one foot. I'm not referring to that kind
17:45
of thing, OK. Referring to something humanoid
17:49
with one leg and one foot. Because a snail would be cool.
17:53
A snake tail could be considered 1 foot.
17:55
One leg, Yeah, that's very cool. I am talking about humanoid.
17:59
One leg, 1 foot. See, if they weren't really
18:01
saucy they could do a snail, but with a spiral leg coming down.
18:07
What would that be, Rich? It would be his genitalia Mal,
18:09
which anyone was watching while the documentary knows a snail's
18:11
genitalia is spiral. Don't they come out of like the
18:15
head as well? They come out from everywhere.
18:17
They're they're dirty things. A 2.0 figure with high heel
18:22
boot, one leg. Yeah, no.
18:27
Actually. Rich is a nightmare.
18:31
Or a cosmic one that's got a spring as a leg.
18:37
He wants that now. Yeah, right.
18:42
Tribute. That would be cool.
18:45
A troll with one leg. I don't know if you made the
18:48
foot big enough in my balance. We're coming into the summer
18:53
soon so you know the figures will start to get warmer.
18:56
They'll be stage diving soon. You.
18:58
Had a couple do it. Wow.
19:00
Yeah, yeah. Got the sun shining into them
19:06
right Rich? I put you up a picture for this
19:09
one or. I do, I've got pictures from all
19:11
obviously. Oh wow.
19:12
So this next one's a serious one but you guys won't agree with
19:15
it. Ban naked torsos.
19:20
Like a rubbish idea would be to have any other character that's
19:23
human with a naked torso or just with a bra.
19:26
If it's a female rubbish idea, I think the horseman should avoid
19:29
it like the plague. Well, Mal, clearly what did you,
19:35
what did you get today from I? I got this guy.
19:41
Thank you to both Brett and John, because Brett shipped it
19:45
to John. John shipped to me.
19:47
I've already acted around with him and.
19:49
And they they kept it for a couple of days before delivering
19:52
it. They said, oh, it's ready for
19:54
delivery. And then it just stayed there
19:57
for. So you're going to you're going
19:59
to deny Mal's enjoyment. I mean, he opened the big box of
20:04
figures and that's the one he opened.
20:06
Yeah. And the and we strangely there
20:08
are other malkrans, whatever you want to call them, like Mal that
20:13
like the Barbarians out there. But no, it's yeah, no, in my
20:18
eyes it's the worst idea ever. Are you a bit prudish or
20:21
whatever? I wouldn't have thought so, but
20:24
maybe I am. Maybe it's repressed
20:26
prudishness. I will say, and I'm not going to
20:30
stick to this rigorously because I don't actually mind it that
20:33
much. I am more of the opinion of the
20:36
the and I actually like really like Junior the crusher as well,
20:39
but I am more of the opinion the little metal bra is a bit of a
20:42
weird one, but it's sort of a bit of a fantasy trope, isn't it
20:46
now? But I'm I'm not that against it.
20:53
I can tolerate it. This is my only anti barbarian
20:56
one in the whole group. So you say from this point on,
20:58
but. What about figures that use like
21:00
the same parts but are like blue or green like?
21:02
That's fine. I did say humans.
21:04
OK, I'm saying this so OK, Yeah, if it's like a shark guy, yeah,
21:09
with a bare chest, that's fine. No problem at all with that.
21:12
It's just where it's a human, I have an issue.
21:15
Let's see, So. So if this guy was painted blue
21:20
using the orange wig, that'd be all right.
21:23
Absolutely fine. Yeah.
21:24
All right. OK, Baker.
21:26
Oh, that's a good idea. I'm pretty sure that's why it's
21:30
in there. I'm.
21:30
Going to take that off the screen now before we lose more
21:35
followers. Right, eh.
21:43
So that's Rich's pop at the Barbarians.
21:45
Yeah, Umm, to. Me two goes in to get to it.
21:49
OK. It did, yeah right eh?
21:53
My next one is a tree man from Zylonas flock who shoots
21:58
fireballs from his hands but then catches fire every time he
22:01
uses them. That would be a terrible,
22:05
terrible idea. It's a great like, it's great
22:10
for fighting other tree men, but still, you could only fire off
22:14
your fireballs when you're down near the lake.
22:16
Yeah, that's that's a gift that somebody was on a laugh when
22:20
they taught him that trick. When they're.
22:21
Oh yeah, you go dude, this is absolutely the the spell to cast
22:24
for you. Yeah.
22:27
So yeah, tree man would be cool. But yeah, tree man that shoots
22:32
fireballs would be really. Bad.
22:34
He'd need a fellow tree man friend that shot water out of
22:36
his hands. Come with A2.
22:39
Pack. Yeah.
22:39
Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
22:44
What do you think now? I mean, I'm not entirely against
22:52
but but no, it can be quite good.
22:56
He'd have to. Build it the winner so he could
22:57
run so he's on fire, so the arms would have to go up all the way,
23:00
the legs go out, so he's like. Or just pack in a some burnt
23:08
timber as an accessory for. See how to fire by mode.
23:12
Buy this in a heartbeat. I think it's a great idea.
23:16
I mean you. Pretty much.
23:17
So that's a failure then for for this for this assignment, I have
23:21
failed this assignment. No, no, failed to success or
23:28
succeeded to failed up would be failed upwards, isn't it?
23:31
Yeah, it's a good idea. Fair enough, right?
23:37
Mild. Give us your next one.
23:39
Right. So certain molluscs such as
23:45
clams and mussels, so those creatures that basically just
23:50
sit around on rocks and filter feed.
23:54
And this is the one I'm quite happy to be proved wrong if
23:56
someone makes a really cool clam action figure.
24:01
But but yeah, they I think, I think, you know, you've just got
24:06
like a clam. He doesn't have feet, so he'd
24:09
just be just be sat there. And they barely ever do this.
24:13
So except when they I suppose feeding it would just, it'd be
24:17
rubbish. It could be the ultimate guard
24:19
though. Somebody might think, oh it's
24:20
just a clam and as you walk past it opens and load of weapons
24:22
just spring out of its mouth spring.
24:26
Yeah, I suppose. Yeah, I suppose it'd be like
24:29
like a Venus flytrap kind of, which actually would be quite
24:32
cool. That would be cool.
24:35
Wouldn't wouldn't chef dive either?
24:37
You know if it's just just sit in the shell, throw it under
24:42
chef like your wallet after it's empty.
24:44
I thought, I thought it's before and I'll, I'll say it again out
24:47
loud here. I need to win a lot of money on
24:49
the lottery so I can contact the four horsemen and get them to
24:51
make some of these in, you know, in coordination.
24:54
They can sell and make all the money off it.
24:56
That's why I'll just pay for the tooling.
24:57
But you know, let's get some of these crazy things done in line
25:00
with the mythics and the cosmic and everything else we can make.
25:04
I can be a sub sub line of shit legions.
25:09
Be careful to say what I'm about to say now, but as I wrote that
25:13
one, I was like, Brian, see, he's totally going to do this
25:16
and it's going to be the most awesome thing ever, isn't it?
25:18
After I said this. And if he does, you and I will
25:20
probably both buy it now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
25:23
If he does it, it will be amazing.
25:25
But. Yeah, Brian, if you to listen to
25:27
1 episode, you should listen to this.
25:31
You can turn our terrible ideas into good ideas.
25:35
Oh imagine like as you mentioned poo, though to use a plight
25:38
term, imagine a sentient poo. It's like a troll poo that comes
25:43
to life. So you know by.
25:47
That there's all sorts of texturing it could have, like
25:49
poo arms, poo legs, maybe you could have some undigested food
25:53
be part of the arm. So you could have a cut of
25:55
carrots or something, or a bone from something it's eaten.
25:58
I think maybe, maybe that'll be the next Christmas figure.
26:01
Obscure. Mr. Hanky.
26:03
Mr. Hanky. A tribute to Mr. Hanky.
26:09
Here's some bonus ones. Yeah, yeah.
26:14
Who are we on to next To be back to you, Rich.
26:16
Back to me. So the next two of mine are
26:18
figure obscurers. I would absolutely hate if they
26:21
did. Move the slide to a lung and
26:23
we'll go. Sleeping Beauty, the most boring
26:27
figure obscure ever. I don't want a character that
26:30
just lies in the bed. It's like, yeah, it's characters
26:33
in a bed. You can't do anything with her.
26:35
She's she's attached to the bed to make it more realistic.
26:38
I don't get how fatty mollusk. I don't know how.
26:41
Fancy a a duvet cover or a comforter or whatever they call
26:44
it in America? See jasm do it's not going to
26:47
make this worth collecting or buying.
26:48
It's like, you know, 4 poster bed everything.
26:51
No, it's just a character in the bed.
26:53
You know, there are people in the community who'd be all over
26:56
this. Thing Oh, well, it's the things.
26:57
It's our opinions, isn't it? There will be people who would
26:59
love this sort of stuff. Any sort of Disney file or
27:02
anything like that would be like, Oh my God, that's amazing.
27:06
But no. They'd make a nice bed accessory
27:09
though I'm sure. Oh, they would, I said.
27:10
It'd be, it'd be A4 poster slippers on the floor maybe, or
27:16
something like that. You know, it'd all be top
27:18
quality stuff. But I don't want a bed with
27:20
somebody lying asleep in it, no. Yeah, I wouldn't.
27:26
Well, you know, not a big fan of the female figuras already, so
27:32
yeah, this wouldn't really flow my book.
27:35
I think they need to do Red Riding Hood and really
27:37
realistically to get the I think.
27:39
We've all said that me, a Red Riding Hood and the Wolf, that
27:41
would just be a 2 pack to die for.
27:44
Yeah, absolutely. We got any more in Sleeping
27:49
Beauty or we move on? Move on, let's move on.
27:54
OK, I've got a wizard in the convocation of Basilia whose
28:01
memory gets wiped every day or every time they use their magic
28:06
for a day. So then he's just wandering
28:10
around. He's looking at Balaam, going
28:14
who are you? And then it slowly comes back to
28:20
him over the day. He has to learn his magic again
28:23
and then. Then he's like, well, I remember
28:26
it now, and he has to be. When he uses his magic, it has
28:30
to be seriously effective. Otherwise he's done, you know?
28:38
Yeah, Yeah. That's, that's to the cat.
28:43
Yeah. I'm shouting at the cats because
28:45
they're chasing each other around and hitting each other at
28:46
the moment, so it's like, no, he's packing it in.
28:51
Actually, again, John, actually that was quite a cool character.
28:55
I mean, I reckon you could, you could fit that in really well
28:57
with a storyline. You play a pivotal role, be
28:58
wandering around like I have no idea who I am and it's all go
29:01
wrong for the side of good. And then he just steps in the
29:03
last minute when all comes back and wins the battle.
29:05
It could be perfect. Then how would you, how would
29:07
you depict that in figure form, you know?
29:09
That's that's where it isn't very good.
29:11
You just look like a normal figure wouldn't?
29:13
He faces one like dopey, really blank like.
29:16
Yeah, Yeah. Maybe that's it.
29:18
Yeah. And then, you know, I remembered
29:20
everything. Face and yeah.
29:22
That he's cast in his magic, That'd be good.
29:27
But maybe his memory, everything gets wiped.
29:30
So then he he's like doesn't even know how to dress himself,
29:32
so he turns into a. Vibrator.
29:34
He's got their clothes on. Naked apartment hat that he
29:38
found that he really likes. He's got a big, big hat and
29:41
nothing else. Yeah, they.
29:43
'D have to make a new little crotch piece.
29:49
I don't know why that. Shouldn't.
29:51
Oh God, can't. Don't see?
29:55
Wizard Wangs, then. Oh, it's a new genre.
30:00
Wizard ones. Wizard ones.
30:02
And don't mean that one whichever 1 you want to look at
30:06
it. Right now.
30:10
So this is a bit more along what you've done.
30:13
Any sort of prey, animal type of character, character, character,
30:18
such as a rabbit or a Guinea pig or a hamster as part.
30:22
I would wait, Rich, wait as part of the Legions of Arathea.
30:26
Yeah, there you go. They'd work in other factions,
30:30
but not in the Legions of Arathea.
30:31
Because I don't think Bunnykin's the Destroyer.
30:35
He's quite, you know. Evil face and the kind of.
30:41
Maybe, maybe that's how you, but then is he not possessed by
30:43
demon at that point and. He's kind of demon.
30:46
Character. I'm talking fluffy Bunny, fluffy
30:48
Guinea pig, fluffy rabbit. I think it'd work as part of The
30:52
Sun's the Red Star if we want to go for a bad and evil 1, because
30:55
that's why method all works because, you know, it's a bit
30:59
more eclectic and they're not as out now evil as Arathea, but
31:03
yeah. So these you just.
31:04
Get eaten when you buy an orchid using the.
31:06
Last maybe, maybe that's maybe that's it.
31:10
You have him with like one arm missing or a bone arm and where
31:15
he's been eaten and attacked. That actually sounds quite good
31:18
now. Keep turning these bad ideas
31:22
into good ideas. What about little, uh, Guinea
31:27
pig accessories and stuff? The any other big ones for the
31:33
for the yogs? Little spit roast with the
31:38
Guinea pigs on it and it crying like tears running out of oh
31:41
it's my brother. Have we ever mentioned that Poor
31:45
Waffles is no longer? I don't know if we have.
31:49
We might have done maybe. But yes, we are sons gerbils
31:52
now. The gerbil gerbilarium went to
31:54
the tip at the weekend. We just have an empty space now.
31:57
And that was which work Deskins are going to go into.
31:59
Yeah. Sounds like fun.
32:03
Yeah. Well, yeah, poor waffles anyway.
32:04
I didn't mean it. I swear.
32:06
I swear. His last breath was cursing you,
32:09
John. Well, you know what?
32:12
He was dead, right? What about it like an ice
32:16
character in the Legion of Arthur?
32:18
Would that be a bad idea? Like an icy character.
32:22
No, I think ice would work all right, because because it's just
32:25
evil ice then, isn't it? Right.
32:27
And you know it can be magical ice rather than just a normal
32:30
ice character. And they're from a fairly cold
32:33
part of our mythos, aren't they? You know, Bjorn, Gar and yeah,
32:37
the 8th, the hold and all eyes up, you know, North and a bit
32:41
icy and that sort of thing. That could work.
32:43
Yeah, but he would he not be a threat to Arthur?
32:46
No, Arthur, he's melting. OK, so he's he's in constant
32:52
danger. I mean, everyone is in constant
32:54
danger from Arthur. As well, I think I think I.
32:57
Think he can't even be in his presence.
32:59
It's just demons. Demons.
33:01
We call him the Steam and Demon. Demon the Steam.
33:04
And now that's sounded like the start of a good idea.
33:10
A. Mall would, you'd have to be
33:12
translucent. Wouldn't this mileage be like,
33:14
yeah, there we go. Yeah.
33:16
And you just load. You can just, I don't know, put
33:21
a little bit of comes a little capsule that you just break and
33:24
some dry ice comes out of it. You can refill it then, right?
33:30
Let's move along before the idea gets too good.
33:36
It's on too rich again. It is me, isn't it?
33:41
Yeah, that was you with the gerbils and stuff.
33:45
Yeah, yeah. Did we?
33:46
I'm sorry we got carried away. Yeah, I.
33:48
Didn't you want to another A? Yeah, yeah.
33:51
Look at it. The Cratchit family.
33:52
I do not want to see the Cratchit.
33:54
I'm being bigger, obscure. We're gonna have the ghosts.
33:57
We probably get Scrooge, but there's a line.
34:00
This would be the line. I don't want a Tiny Tim figure.
34:03
I don't care about Tiny Tim. I don't know Cratchit.
34:05
I don't miss Cratchit or any of the kids.
34:06
No, this would be the line that's crossed.
34:10
I I, I think this isn't far off one of my more controversial
34:15
ideas, so I've got to go with you on this one.
34:17
Although I'd argue there's more story to the Cratchit family
34:21
than what I'm going to mention. But yeah, yeah, I can.
34:25
I can, I can. I'm on board with this one,
34:27
Rich. We'd have the same Christmas.
34:28
We don't need to go the next 10 years.
34:30
Yeah, we don't. We don't need to go that deep in
34:32
into one particular line with the figures, I don't think,
34:37
especially when it's just people.
34:40
Yeah, that's that's. There's nothing really
34:44
particular about them, you know, that's it.
34:47
They're fine. Put them on the art like they
34:49
have and kind of stuff. Curious.
34:53
Why Bob Cratcher looks like Tintin in that picture but.
34:58
Same artist. Probably it might be.
35:02
Well, yeah, very odd. OK, another stupid one for me, a
35:09
barbarian with food intolerances.
35:15
So he's like, you know, the Barbarians just go around and
35:18
they just like, you know, they eat what they kill.
35:21
And but he's like, you know, he's, you know, can't eat
35:25
anything. Basically, so he's got these
35:28
rather than like a snarling face or he's got to, he's a straining
35:32
face because he's he's eaten something and it's gone right
35:35
through you. Know he's he eats, he kills, I
35:39
don't know, wild, wild bird or something and then he eats it
35:42
and it's like and then he's he gets he gets shot because or he
35:47
gets attacked and killed because he's basically turned over in
35:51
cramps. Yeah.
35:53
So we have to come with like, a bloated stomach.
35:54
So he'd finally get off that stomach that we've been after
35:57
for ages. Yeah.
35:58
And he'd be really, he'd be really, he'd be really weakling
36:01
in the end because he's just not able to work out and lift his
36:06
weapons all the time because he's always crippled over with
36:09
these. And you can't really go, you
36:15
can't really go vegan on the way it stands really.
36:19
There isn't really the sculpt there, is there?
36:22
Could they call him irritable bowel or something?
36:28
Like that, that's where you can get your little poo accessory.
36:31
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh well, diarrhea.
36:33
I feel like diarrhea, yeah. More of a splat, it's.
36:37
A red thing, but a bit smaller, painted brown.
36:41
Oh, it's already choose. Fantastic.
36:50
And so there you go, There's a barbarian favorite.
36:54
You'd like that one. I'd probably cope with that one
36:55
because you'd be dying, so that's good.
37:01
I am not. You could actually use the Red
37:04
Death body, come to think of it, couldn't you?
37:06
Back of him before and after. Or just use the red death arms
37:12
and the fat torso. Because he's yeah, yeah.
37:15
Because he's bloke. Can't even eat sheep.
37:23
Or you could. Come with a hole in the floor
37:26
accessory, a little shovel. So he's dug out the hole across
37:32
the. Across the plain.
37:35
And the packet of Imodium or something Mythos version right
37:43
now you got any more? Funnily enough, it's this was
37:48
when I came up with just very Bru before we started skibbity
37:52
toilet tribute figure obscure Skibbity toilet is just garbage.
37:58
It's a it's. A sounds like I don't even know
38:01
what it is. Stupid Internet thing, I don't
38:05
even fully know what it is. I've just seen clips and there
38:08
are they are doing toys, somebody's doing toys of them
38:11
already and they are just again, no pun intended, just shit.
38:17
So any kind of reference to that can do one.
38:24
Sounds like a good idea. Yeah.
38:28
Rich, I see a lot of trees here. Yes, so this is my part where I
38:32
go into characters and just silly things.
38:34
So an ogre as an assassin in the Red Sun's Red Star would be a
38:38
terrible idea because you here's an example of him trying to hide
38:40
in a forest before he sneaks out on his victim.
38:43
Just just not going to work. He's not going to really badly
38:48
Photoshop himself into a forest do.
38:49
You know what I mean? Yeah, This is me talking about
38:52
here. This is not like, well,
38:54
photoshopped. This is, you know.
38:56
For our listeners, rather than watching this on YouTube, the IT
39:01
is a picture of trees with a as described, badly photoshopped.
39:06
Try Argomedes. Yeah, Argomedes just pasted on
39:10
top of them. You.
39:11
Get the idea, But you know what I mean?
39:16
I mean, if you ignore the black surrounding him as if it's some
39:18
sort of dark cloud, even then he just wouldn't blend in.
39:20
So I think an ogre assassin would be a terrible idea.
39:23
Yeah, I, I I never get the feeling that they're most agile
39:26
anyway. So no.
39:27
And if it's like stomach started rumbling or something, he'd be
39:29
like, you know, earthquake going off Just no.
39:35
He could be friends with the barbarian from this one.
39:40
He still started rumbling right? So to be clear, we still like
39:46
Argo medias, huh? Oh, nothing wrong with Argo
39:50
medias at all. No, it's just, you know.
39:52
Just an example. Because as an assassin, as a
39:54
character would be a terrible idea.
39:56
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I was thinking.
39:58
I actually did think, because I was going to try and do all the
40:01
factions. I was thinking of Sons of the
40:03
Red Star. Maybe a bigger figure wouldn't
40:04
be quite so suitable, right? My next one continuing my team a
40:12
vampire who faints at the sight of blood.
40:21
That's just, that's just gonna, that's gonna get you every time,
40:24
isn't it? Yeah.
40:25
You know, go do your job. You have to be.
40:27
It's a pale anyway. She's like translucent.
40:35
So here's your dinner. Here's your cup of blood tea.
40:46
Oh, that'd be funny. That's like the food intolerance
40:49
Annoying. If they ever do mythic legions
40:51
cartoon they need to incorporate a lot of these characters.
40:53
These would. Be awesome.
40:55
It just, yeah, just comedy sidekicks for per episode, you
40:58
know? Yeah.
41:01
How long would that vampire last, though?
41:03
Probably would probably have to defect to the flock or
41:07
something. Yeah, he wouldn't be able too
41:08
much. You'd have to be like, they have
41:10
to surreptitiously give him blood that realizing it's blood
41:12
and he could be like a book person with him maybe out the
41:14
way so it never sees any blood. Just, you know, just a little
41:17
room somewhere. Mind his own business.
41:20
Yeah, but don't they kind of live off the blood of others, I
41:24
mean. If you put it in something else
41:26
like, you know. Porridge so you can't see what
41:28
he just eats. What he thinks is strawberry
41:30
flavoured porridge which is just mixed in with oats.
41:33
Surely it'd be more metallic? Tomorrow for breakfast, that's
41:36
for sure. OK, you've got another one now.
41:44
I have this is This is my last one unfortunately.
41:47
Oh heck, I've got loads more. Good, good, good.
41:49
Oh. Yeah, it'll soon be the ritual.
41:51
This is the Super controversial and I think and going to make me
41:54
very unpopular with some people, maybe popular with others.
41:59
Towns and village folk would be a bad idea for a.
42:04
Horrendous idea that almost made my list.
42:07
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know there are people who are
42:09
like, oh, we want, we want a town folk.
42:11
We want, I don't know, a blacksmith or or whatever.
42:15
And I can see what they're thinking.
42:17
They're thinking, oh, we'll have a cool outfit and he'll come
42:20
with this, that and the other. But realistically, what's he
42:23
doing? Where does he fit in the story?
42:26
You know, you if you think about what an action figure is,
42:29
they're generally someone who weighs in the name action
42:32
figure. And you know, your townsfolk
42:37
could just milling around in the background.
42:39
They get up, go to work, go home and they say no, they don't.
42:47
They have no place in this world of action.
42:51
Figures, but these are what your your legion builders can be used
42:55
for if you want to create townsfolk or you know, kind of
43:01
background characters. I've just got a load of cheap
43:05
Lord of the Rings Toby's Lord of the Rings characters and shove
43:07
them in background as a town. But I also think as well, we
43:11
have so many characters in the line now and so many figures,
43:14
you don't need shell fillers at this point.
43:17
No, absolutely don't. And if you do buy that dragon,
43:19
then that'll fill your shelf that's in one go.
43:22
Shelves. Yeah.
43:26
All right, Rich, next one. OK, so the next one is similar
43:29
to one of the ideas that Mal came out with, and I've got
43:31
another one that's similar to an idea you did John as well, but
43:33
just give me heads up there. So a puppy?
43:37
That's an evil warlord. That would be amazing.
43:45
That he he just wouldn't inspire fear in somebody.
43:48
He'd look at it and just like go Oh my God, like please killed
43:51
1000 men don't care. Look at it.
43:53
He'd. Be so funny though, so rich has
43:56
a picture here of Gorgo at the blade with like a corgi head or
44:00
something. Or is it a?
44:01
It's a fluffy dog of some sort. I can't, I'm not sure what, Like
44:04
a chow chow something, maybe? But yeah, it's just a ball of
44:07
fluff with dark eyes. Basically.
44:08
It's a cute, very cute puppy. There you go.
44:10
Dark eyes, though, you know, I mean they.
44:12
Ah, there we go. Yeah, He's seen your soul.
44:15
But you couldn't. I mean, it's all it's one of
44:17
those things that you'd see in a comedy film if it, you know,
44:19
took his helmet. Gorgo takes helmet off and it's
44:21
a cute puppy. He's going to be like, well, I'm
44:23
just not as scared about you anymore.
44:29
Absolutely. I like that one.
44:31
It's got, it's just got a charm. It's got a terrific yeah.
44:35
Don't be wrong, I would love a race of cute puppies in mythos
44:38
and dogs 100% but just not wouldn't work.
44:41
As money, it's about where they they go, isn't it?
44:43
Yeah. And what the styles like.
44:45
Like I said, my Bunny rabbit in in leisure arrow.
44:49
It wouldn't work. It wouldn't work.
44:52
Right. Give us another one.
44:53
They're rich before I. OK, Next up we have a troll
44:59
mage. Now I don't think this would
45:02
work because in my in my head, in my cannon, trolls are thick
45:05
as thick can be, so they wouldn't be able to cast a
45:08
spell. No, no, no, nothing had happened
45:12
and it'd just be a disaster. I quite like the idea as of of
45:17
random intelligent troll. That's what granted, isn't it?
45:21
I suppose he is, Yes, he's. Sort of, he's sort of
45:25
intelligent, but he knows he's a gladiator at the end of the day,
45:27
isn't he? Whereas, you know, I can't see
45:29
somebody, you know, a troll pulling out a big spell book and
45:32
just like going bear with me a second.
45:33
We go to page, whatever, whatever and pronounce this
45:36
mystical language and make something happen.
45:38
It's just like. Club but but his spell book
45:42
could be made from the skin of every other creature in mythos,
45:46
so he could have like, you know, a skim spellbook.
45:50
I think that says it all. That would be quite a cool.
45:53
I'd support that with maybe a different character Mal, but you
45:56
know, not a troll. Even with a jaunty hat like this
46:00
guy's wearing, I just the. Very.
46:04
Yeah, that's the very lesions. Wizard hat.
46:06
It is you know, I was thinking that it's like what would they
46:08
have in lesions with their wizard?
46:09
It one with with stars on. Yeah.
46:12
Absolutely. That's it.
46:15
I had even with the hat like that as well.
46:22
That would be great. Get him a big soft goods wizard
46:26
robe. Look amazing, but you'd sell
46:29
like hot cakes? I would buy it in a heart rate.
46:37
Right, I'll give you another one, Poxess Bowmaster, who has a
46:43
deadly allergy to insects, so he's loading the bowl for pops.
46:54
He's not going to last long, is he?
46:59
He can meet with Sleeping Beauty.
47:01
That's it. Yeah, that'd be funny.
47:08
And I have one last one, Cosmic 1 scientists in the zero gravity
47:14
research facility in the full suit with the flatulence
47:19
problem. You're a classic fart in the
47:25
space suit. Would you just be green all the
47:27
time? Because.
47:28
Maybe. Yeah, maybe that's what's wrong
47:30
with Slug I. Was going to say yeah, use the
47:33
slug body but with just like tiny little arms sticking out
47:37
and inflated the suit, tiny little head at the top with you
47:42
know. Translucent poo emojis to
47:48
represent the 1st as. Another one that comes with the
47:52
fecal. Accessory.
47:54
It can matter, right? Ritual is this monster.
47:59
So this this is a mole as an Archer.
48:02
So an Archer needs keen eyesight, need to pick out
48:04
things in a distance. So what worse the creature do
48:07
that than a mole who can barely see anything at all?
48:10
So you can imagine him, he's pulling his bow back and the
48:12
arrow just goes anywhere just anyway.
48:14
He's facing back towards his own troops.
48:18
But he's he's he's you know, he's got in well with the with
48:21
the general. So there's like no, do you
48:22
leave? No, he's fine, he's fine, he's
48:23
fine. And then he's like, you know,
48:25
just not hitting anything he's aiming at.
48:27
He's struggling to find his bow half the time, but he's cute.
48:30
So his colleagues go, Oh, he's pretty cute though, so it's OK,
48:33
we'll keep him along. Love it.
48:38
I think I'd buy that one. Yeah, I really like the idea of
48:41
a mole in in in mythos. But yeah, it'd be quite funny
48:44
because, as you say, he's going to be useless in a fight.
48:48
He really is. Unless he's fighting a giant
48:51
worm, he's going to be no use at all.
48:53
Yeah, that's it, That's it. And.
48:55
Again, any any of the audio listeners only.
48:58
Check out YouTube. You get the really badly
49:00
photoshopped mole on an ELF Archer body to see what it looks
49:04
like, yeah. Maybe don't bother, I do think.
49:11
I do think creatures like molds would work so well in cosmic
49:14
though, you know? I think it'd work in me but they
49:18
they'd look but there is that element of.
49:22
Yeah, we got the sexy in minor. You know what's what's in the
49:25
mine? You could, yeah.
49:27
Oh, that actually be cool with it.
49:28
A mole. Which?
49:30
Yeah. Go on.
49:32
Yeah, pair him up with a dwarf or something is like a best
49:33
buddy. Yeah, well, I was going to say
49:36
yeah, in in Cosmic, the thing you could give him is big
49:39
goggles, isn't it? Yeah, and big like Cyborg.
49:44
Oh, that would. Work.
49:44
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like Geordie Laforge, Mole.
49:52
That'd be awesome, right? Next one, Rich.
49:58
So now we have a a frost ogre that decided to join the
50:01
congregation in Necro Anonymous without realizing quite how warm
50:04
it is in the South of Mr. So it was melted, as you can clearly
50:10
tell by the puddle underneath the top half of the ogre in the
50:13
picture. He's just started melting in the
50:15
heat. So that would be, that would be
50:17
a really bad idea. That would not work at all.
50:20
I feel like that's going to be one of the future legions come
50:24
pictures. Do you think how long did it
50:31
take you to do those clouds or little puddles?
50:35
Sorry. It's a pile of blue.
50:36
It's a pile of blue goo because he's melted.
50:39
It took me a couple of minutes maybe to do that.
50:43
So the frost ugger is in a lithia's brood.
50:45
I was worried for a second it was a narrator and it was my
50:48
whole conversation from earlier was redundant.
50:51
But no. No, no, no.
50:52
So, yeah, But yeah. So he decided I'm going to join
50:54
the congregation. And then, yeah, just, you know,
50:56
you see on the map, there's deserts, there's all sorts down
50:59
there. So he wouldn't last two minutes.
51:02
Yeah, that's fair enough. Next, a panda.
51:08
A panda vampire. Now this would be the worst type
51:12
of vampire imaginable because pandas are stupid.
51:15
Very, very stupid. So he would still try to go to.
51:18
Dare say that about. So all the rest of vampires
51:21
would be feasting on blood. He'd be trying to find some
51:23
bamboo to eat. And they'd be like, no, dude,
51:26
no, it's about blood. Now he's like, no, no, no, I got
51:28
to eat bamboo. That's all I can eat is bamboo.
51:30
He's absolutely goes around staking his colleagues because
51:32
he's like got a big piece of bamboo that's got a spike.
51:35
In it like that mouth. He'd be with my guy who's
51:41
fainting outside of blood, you know, He'd be with the panda
51:47
hanging out. He'd be having a great time.
51:49
Yeah, so I mean he looks. Rude from the inside.
51:51
You can tell from the picture he looks angry, he looks fierce, he
51:54
can tell by his face and he looks cute mouth.
51:56
He looks cute. Yeah, you already get an angry
51:58
looking panda. But yeah, they are stupid,
52:01
stupid animals that would have got distinct but for human help.
52:04
So I just upset countless people now who are Panda fans.
52:08
But yeah, he would make a terrible vampire.
52:11
I think stupid is a bit of a harsh word.
52:13
I mean, they're not intelligent. Maybe be better.
52:18
No better way of putting it. Stupid.
52:25
Oh, poor panda, tell you what looks good on the with the
52:30
purple colour scheme in the black.
52:31
Do you know what? I mean, that works, isn't it?
52:33
Yeah, absolutely. He's right.
52:37
Tin Panda, though. There's only so much
52:41
photoshopping I can do, John. This is not like you know.
52:45
This is literally a cropped picture of Carpathios with a
52:47
cropped panda head. We don't, we only have the frost
52:50
Ogre and the Lithias brood so. Right, I've got 2 left.
52:57
OK, the first one is very similar to one of yours, John.
52:59
So a pyromancer in the flock because he was just set that
53:03
type forest the light, it would just be a dreadful idea.
53:08
Him, him, him and the tree man gun on a reconnaissance mission.
53:16
Yeah, imagine a desperate last battle.
53:18
He loses his temper, he saves the members of the flock in the
53:21
immediate vicinity and kills all their families because he burns
53:23
down every forest in Zylona. Oh, that's terrible.
53:28
I mean this is obviously people in real life do suffer from
53:34
forest. And I made, I made very sure I
53:35
got a picture of a European forest fire as well.
53:38
OK. I searched very carefully to
53:40
make sure there was nothing American involved in it after
53:42
there obviously horrendous. Yeah, the horrendous fires in in
53:45
LA recently. No, I'm not.
53:47
You know, I'm not making fun forest fires.
53:48
But, you know, this is a fantasy show with fantasy aspects so
53:52
fair. This would be a disaster.
53:54
Yeah. Sure would.
53:56
He looks cool though. But that is Saint Anne, Sir
53:58
Andrew, so. I can't wait for getting Saint
54:00
Andrew. Such a cool figure.
54:02
Yeah, he's classic. Yeah, absolutely.
54:05
Oh, and we never, we never talked about my suspicions of
54:08
his links to the to Baithi, did we?
54:14
We bought. Things about, but I don't know
54:15
if we talked about it on the show or not.
54:17
We talked. About it but we'll save that one
54:21
for another day hey let's tease people and we'll save it for
54:24
another day you. Need to remind me next week then
54:26
to talk. About it.
54:27
So it's a shortish episode, man. I'll go for it.
54:29
Check it in there. Right there.
54:33
We talk about the dragon again now, Yeah.
54:35
My last one I think I'm possibly most proud of.
54:39
So this so this is all done. I have it lined up since last
54:43
week. So this horrendous idea is a
54:50
shark in the congregation of Necronominus because sharks are
54:58
made of cartilage which doesn't survive.
55:00
So the cartilage is gone and all you'd have left is teeth.
55:04
There's there's just a picture of like a row of top and bottom
55:07
teeth. Yeah, that's all you'd have left
55:09
would be teeth. She'd be on the battlefield and
55:11
there'd just be these floating teeth coming towards.
55:13
You'd be in a ghostly form. Nothing like that.
55:15
Just teeth. I actually now want a
55:18
translucent shark just. Painted, no translucent that
55:22
would be good in the country that would that would rival Hang
55:26
Hagnon for best translucent figure.
55:29
Yeah, I mean, it'd be a cheap figure for the Horsemen to make,
55:31
you know, They don't need one tooth sculpt, just redone a few
55:34
times. True.
55:36
Yeah, could probably even reuse sculpt and I don't know if that
55:41
have teeth that size, but yeah, could reuse maybe stone troll
55:46
teeth or something. Essentially, yeah.
55:52
But yes, a shark in the congregation would be just an
55:54
awful idea. OK, taking that off the screen
55:56
now before people are scanning through the YouTube or what the
56:00
hell is that? But that was fun Rich.
56:06
Yeah, I quite enjoyed that actually.
56:08
I think literally I came. Up with the idea and then
56:10
thought of the hand puppet thing straight away and the ogre
56:13
assassin straight away because I mentioned it to you guys.
56:15
And then I was just like, Oh dear Tumbleweed, what else am I
56:18
going to do? It's a good variety.
56:20
Me with silly creatures, John with some, you know, just really
56:23
puns. Basically.
56:24
Awful ideas and puns, which is great.
56:25
Mal being Mal. As always.
56:28
Deep thoughts on this and. I think that's my problem.
56:32
Sometimes is I get. Too much so we noticed that in
56:35
the queers here. The amount of answers you talked
56:38
yourself out of on that quiz. It wasn't me telling you to move
56:41
along. It was the IT was the other
56:43
contestants. I think next time for the quiz,
56:47
we'll make it a few questions, less and less contestants that
56:50
went on a bit too long. I think the contestant, it was
56:54
fine. I think less questions maybe.
56:56
Yeah, yeah, Yeah, it was. We can balance it, but it's
56:59
fine. Yeah, absolutely.
57:01
Watch on double speed if you're going to watch it, folks.
57:07
What does the one sound like in double?
57:10
Let me know. Let me know.
57:14
Yeah, put that on the podcast feed as well for people that
57:17
only listen for the audio. So.
57:19
So as I missed the the dragon part of the show because of my
57:22
Internet connectivity, did you guys make an estimate about
57:25
where you thought it would finish?
57:26
No, that's maybe a good way to finish out.
57:28
What do you think? I'm thinking around the 3200
57:32
mark. I think it will be a big kick on
57:34
but you know, there's only so much time they've got left now,
57:37
so I'd say around that. I think that sounds reasonable.
57:41
I do. I think at most we'll get the
57:44
first tier of the of the Skelly, I think.
57:49
Right. Yeah, I think it might get close
57:55
to the 4000. That's what I'm going to say.
57:59
It's going to go for. It's going to go over the 4000.
58:01
I just think we can't think of it like a normal crowdfunding
58:05
because it's money down. So as much as people are saying
58:11
oh now start of the month, so people have money to still
58:14
people that don't want to part for their part of their money to
58:17
the last possible second. Yes, I've seen a few posts like
58:20
that actually. It doesn't matter and there's
58:23
going to be a bunch, I think. No, I'm going to.
58:29
If there's a single post after the fact of people who missed
58:33
the deadline, I am. I don't know what I'm going to.
58:38
I don't know what I'm going to do.
58:39
Probably post nothing. Well.
58:40
There's there is people asking for an extension and and it's
58:45
been explained that there's a full schedule of releases for
58:49
the rest of the year. So even a weak extension would
58:53
would have a week's knock on effect on everything else so.
58:56
Exactly. And it and it buggers at the
58:58
production and everything. Doesn't mean you know, you have
59:00
to solicit later, you produce. It just all goes to hell at that
59:03
point. Because I suppose what we don't
59:06
see and they have the full view of it is character figures.
59:09
Like we said, the barbarian that just crops up in stock at a con
59:13
or the figure obscure us. That's all in the slots now, so
59:20
the pre-orders have to get up in between them for the other stuff
59:24
or else they run into a bottleneck.
59:28
And. That would be worse having a
59:31
situation, sorry. OK, one of you speak.
59:34
John, you go first, then Mal come to you.
59:37
Thanks, Rich. I said what would be worse is,
59:39
you know, having a situation where stuffed queue, and I
59:42
suppose that happens all the time, but they're then a
59:44
situation where they have a slot and they have nothing to put in
59:47
it, you know, because the pre-order isn't done and you
59:52
know, because it's too late and it's too early for another
59:54
project, you know, So they really have to keep the timings.
59:58
Yeah, I bet you spot on there. But the idea of nothing
1:00:02
happening is the worst one for them.
1:00:06
If you spot on and and but do you talk about the things we
1:00:10
don't know about? I mean.
1:00:12
There's probably going to be another sort of armoury type
1:00:16
thing. There's potentially going to be
1:00:18
another surprise figure at Legions Con.
1:00:21
So that's our. Top of Berber Marie Berber.
1:00:28
Miss, Miss, Mrs. Barberie and Yep, Barberie.
1:00:33
I think they're the bad. Bad just sitting there seething
1:00:36
as we talk you just. I'm transferring all the TV.
1:00:38
It's like God damn it. Maybe that's where we'll get the
1:00:41
blue parts to use with the orange wig.
1:00:46
Oh, like the kind of fake faker. Yeah, style I was ignoring.
1:00:51
You because I'm trying to send you a picture.
1:00:53
I'm going to send it to the chat group we've got.
1:00:56
We've told stop doing that. Called the United Nations
1:00:59
because I can't send it in WhatsApp.
1:01:00
So John, you might want to pull this picture up.
1:01:02
I think it's. Very cool, right?
1:01:07
Let's see if I can get that up here.
1:01:12
I guess your Internet it's a bit slow in the meantime.
1:01:16
So you're off to Wales soon, Rich, is that right?
1:01:19
Yes, this Sunday, back the following Friday.
1:01:24
So you guys might have to record without me in the week or we can
1:01:27
try it with me and I'll have my stuff there sort of thing AKA my
1:01:32
laptop and headphones because I can't plug anything else in up
1:01:34
there. We can work it out.
1:01:39
Yeah, we might. We'd see like a sub and see how
1:01:43
it works. The picture come through.
1:01:47
Yeah, I'm just I have to load it up.
1:01:51
Here, So this is so after I very clearly, I think stated on
1:01:54
podcast and told you guys at numerous times, is that right?
1:01:56
Buying a bit of stuff at the start of year and I'm not buying
1:01:58
anything then into Allegiance Con because I'm going to save
1:02:00
money, going to be sensible. And then I bought 1111 heads off
1:02:06
off Derek Stringer the other day when he did a sale painted
1:02:09
heads. So I've sent you the picture of
1:02:12
the of those items. Yeah, I'm going to bring it up
1:02:14
now in a SEC, just takes. I did, yeah.
1:02:19
Right. So what was the, what was the
1:02:24
kind of trigger? Because there must have been one
1:02:25
particular one that. He had a few vampires which drew
1:02:29
me in and then I bought everything else.
1:02:31
Insight. Unfortunately he sold on the
1:02:33
vampire ones I wanted. I just got carried away at this
1:02:35
point, but it was really good prices.
1:02:37
They were $25 per head. Oh wow, yeah, that is.
1:02:41
Good. So yeah, so I've got a vampire.
1:02:43
Like my pricing allegiance con just.
1:02:46
Yes, on my pricing, yeah, yeah, but yeah, it's a vampire mine
1:02:52
bat the top left there, a creepy clown.
1:02:56
It's an immortal collections clown that they showed on our
1:02:59
show but never released anywhere or certainly not allegiance con,
1:03:02
but Derek managed to get one. There's a chaos inspired torso
1:03:07
there and I'm going to use it with the one eyed head of the
1:03:09
red guy on the in the middle there.
1:03:12
That worked really well as a called demon.
1:03:14
Another immortal collection piece they've not released yet
1:03:17
is that weird Fishman with a grotesque teeth and the twisted
1:03:20
face. All right, show off, but he's
1:03:25
blue so he could go into the the shadow circle in cosmic or he
1:03:29
could be I'm a thick guy, a really cool human sculpt.
1:03:33
I've not seen it before like. Pop marks, is that not the dwarf
1:03:37
Forge? You know he did the he did a
1:03:43
Deadpool and a Wolverine dwarf, is that not?
1:03:46
Oh, is that what that is not OK, maybe then yes.
1:03:49
But really cool. A couple called dwarfs.
1:03:52
I'm not sure who did them, but they're very cool.
1:03:54
I'm trying to get a couple of bodies lined up for them that
1:03:56
Cobells. They're like two brothers
1:03:58
because they're very similar beard colours, etcetera.
1:04:02
Wolf King Customs Rock Gollum on the far right there, which Derek
1:04:06
painted look like lava. So again, that's one of my rock
1:04:09
people. And then a couple of umpires in
1:04:11
the bottom one's Legion shop exclusive, which is now
1:04:13
available through Wolf King. And the other one, I don't
1:04:15
recognise where that one's from, but yeah, two more vamps for the
1:04:18
the brood. The one on the left, is that the
1:04:20
Legion Shop 1? Yes, smoking, because you've
1:04:23
talked about that one before. I have.
1:04:25
I've got an unpainted one, but I saw already called this, you
1:04:27
know, this was painted and called.
1:04:28
So I'll just get, I'll just sell it.
1:04:30
They look just exactly like the legions.
1:04:32
Vampires are very good. Yeah, yeah, they are, aren't
1:04:35
they? He had lots.
1:04:36
He must have had another four or five different vampire ones.
1:04:39
One of the ones I wanted. He sold out one, unfortunately.
1:04:43
And there's like, there's only so many vampires, you know, I
1:04:45
have to buy a couple of phalanx bodies just for these two, so.
1:04:50
Yeah, very good. Yeah, productive painter.
1:04:53
I would say he does a lot of stuff and good quality as.
1:04:57
Well, yeah, yeah, I like the way he paints.
1:05:00
Yes, he does. He he particularly seems like
1:05:02
goblins. Oh, there's one one that's not
1:05:03
in this picture actually, which is the Mark Calver sculpt, I
1:05:09
think, which is the goblin wearing a dwarf beard.
1:05:11
Oh yeah, ending to be a dwarf. So he checked one of those in
1:05:14
for me as well because I bought a few things and that's a really
1:05:15
good sculpt. But yeah, he loves the goblins
1:05:17
and well, particularly the goblins.
1:05:19
So if anyone wants to check out his his link and his post, he's,
1:05:23
you know, he must have had at least 70 or 80 different goblins
1:05:26
painted up. So he's probably still got quite
1:05:27
a few of those if people wanted to pick any up.
1:05:32
Yeah. So that's me.
1:05:32
Not that's me not spending any money as I said.
1:05:36
I can't afford to drag him. You're supporting, you're
1:05:39
supporting an artist. So exactly, I'll let you wear
1:05:42
that. Speaking of which, John Mark Cal
1:05:43
was going to be sending the box of painted stuff that I didn't
1:05:45
buy from him to you in the next day or so.
1:05:49
Right. And it's got that one and
1:05:51
painted piece and again, me spending money that I shouldn't
1:05:52
have spent, but it's coming to you.
1:05:53
You can forward it on to me with my other stuff.
1:05:56
Awesome. That sounds good, Yeah.
1:05:59
And I definitely haven't got Mark Field in the UK painting a
1:06:01
couple of bits from me either that I bought off him.
1:06:05
Definitely, definitely none of this is happening.
1:06:09
That's how the world goes round. It would The world wouldn't be
1:06:11
going round if this wasn't happening.
1:06:15
Rich funding, a lot of people's collections.
1:06:17
It's it's good to see. Probably as I spent £500 on a
1:06:20
fish tank the other day as well. So this is, yeah, this is like,
1:06:24
whoa time. We are about the dragon.
1:06:27
Rich bought a fish. Tank.
1:06:28
I bought a fish tank. Well, I can display the fish
1:06:30
tank in the living room. If I could explain the dragon
1:06:31
there, I'd have got the dragon instead.
1:06:33
But I got was a. Lot that we're displaying the
1:06:35
dragon in the living room or like in the main part of the
1:06:38
house upstairs. So it's like fine.
1:06:42
As I say, I think I'm going to have to modify my my coffee
1:06:44
table that's in my lounge to fit the dragon on.
1:06:48
Sorry, we can't have coffee on the table because as you can
1:06:51
see. Well, I'll have to put a case
1:06:55
over it and then, but people will be reaching up for their
1:06:58
coffee, watching TV through it, you know?
1:07:04
Well, guys, you better go and there's a short short enough one
1:07:09
this week, but there's a there's a telethon, 24 hour telethon for
1:07:13
the Bay there. So plenty of Legions content out
1:07:16
there if you were looking for it.
1:07:18
We'll be back next week in some shape, form or other.
1:07:21
Maybe with Rich on a potato, maybe without Rich.
1:07:24
We'd have to see. And we have to see what maybe
1:07:29
it's coming next. Yeah.
1:07:32
Remember stay safe out there everybody.
1:07:34
If you've brought a dragon when you maybe you shouldn't have,
1:07:37
don't tell anyone
