  sandyo, a hair dryer and camera have a billowing and the sand
• 1:54
  flying. There you go.
• 1:57
  Umm, yeah. So that's the that's the plan
• 2:00
  for tonight and a few other things.
• 2:02
  But uh, let's see. Mal was at a con this week.
• 2:05
  I heard Birmingham. I was, I forget the but Toy
• 2:11
  Collectors Fair in Birmingham NEC.
• 2:13
  It's one of the one of the bigger ones in in England.
• 2:16
  It gets quite a quite well. That's a super huge venue, isn't
• 2:19
  it? There's all sorts of big.
• 2:21
  Yeah, it's not. It's not in the biggest, it's
• 2:23
  only in one hall though, but it but it seems to attract a lot of
• 2:26
  people and a lot of European people.
• 2:28
  Whether it's because they can just fly into Birmingham or
• 2:30
  whatever, I don't know. But yeah, it's good.
• 2:33
  It was good one as well. Interesting.
• 2:36
  Quite a bit of stuff that I haven't seen in the last few of
• 2:41
  them as well. So yeah, very cool.
• 2:43
  And you even saw some legions. I did.
• 2:46
  There was a couple of legions there, mostly Necronominous
• 2:53
  Wave. I'd resisted in the end because
• 2:58
  it would only have been fodder, so.
• 3:00
  You were checking with us what the what the the golden rate is
• 3:05
  for scally bones platter wasn't. It yeah yeah and it seemed
• 3:08
  pretty good 47 from UK retailers seems pretty good these days
• 3:12
  it's. An excellent price, yeah.
• 3:16
  Well, Rich, you, I wouldn't know.
• 3:18
  Sorry Matt, you got recognised as well, Matt to the podcast I
• 3:21
  heard. Yes, it's famous in real life.
• 3:24
  We are famous podcast, so it's. One guy, but you know.
• 3:28
  Well, I'll say that. But yes, I got, I got
• 3:31
  recognised. I completely forgotten I was a
• 3:34
  bit sort of, as I tend to be deer in the headlights when
• 3:38
  anyone said, Oh yeah, but he's a gentleman who he's on.
• 3:44
  He knows Trevor Williams and he's on with Dan, who a lot and
• 3:50
  said he listens and watches us, which was very, very nice.
• 3:53
  So you remembered everybody else's names, Mal, but not the
• 3:55
  person you spoke to? Well, that's.
• 4:00
  I know Trevor and I've known Trevor for a while now.
• 4:02
  There haven't. No, Dan, who is the is the
• 4:05
  Marvel Legends guy, isn't he? Yes, Yeah.
• 4:07
  Well, he does a bunch of stuff, but yeah.
• 4:09
  But I think he I would associate recent Marvel legends.
• 4:13
  Cool. I'm subscribed to the Dan Who
• 4:16
  YouTube channel, but yeah. There you go.
• 4:18
  Give us, give us a sub back, you know, get us, get us past that
• 4:22
  500 so we can start putting ads in the podcast not.
• 4:25
  And and and message going idiot Malcolm mine it was me and I'll
• 4:31
  be better. Sorry, I'm terrible with names.
• 4:34
  The best thing about that whole thing though was I got to tell
• 4:36
  my 13 year old daughter that we're famous now because
• 4:40
  somebody's recognised as out in a while.
• 4:42
  She looked so annoyed. It was.
• 4:44
  Worth it, yeah. I mean, we do get recognised
• 4:47
  that legions can, but mostly different friends with people,
• 4:50
  you know, I mean, I think this the first year we went there
• 4:54
  after we started the podcast, like wouldn't have known as many
• 4:57
  people. And there was a few people that
• 4:59
  did say hi because they know us. But I think we we probably know
• 5:03
  all of our listeners individually these days.
• 5:06
  Well, as I, we've got some, I don't know, but yeah.
• 5:11
  Which is great. It's great, Yeah.
• 5:12
  The more the merrier. I just need to get to know them
• 5:15
  better. And rich you were, you were very
• 5:18
  excited to see the the prices for the RPG figures at the UK
• 5:23
  retailer Emporium of Cool. Excited.
• 5:28
  Yeah, I am. I, I ordered through the
• 5:31
  Horsemen and I was telling any UK based people order through
• 5:35
  the Horsemen because even if Emporium charged £35 rather than
• 5:40
  $35 then you're still going to save like 7 LB a figure on the
• 5:44
  on the basic figures. And I'm now even happier that I
• 5:48
  did that because Emporium, we've listed them now and they are
• 5:51
  asking £43 for figure that other retailers are selling for $35.
• 5:59
  And what's £43 in dollars is about?
• 6:04
  It's about $55 at the moment. Wow.
• 6:07
  I mean even insane, our lovely European retailers are selling
• 6:12
  them for €35.00. So you know, even they're even,
• 6:17
  they go so exact on the exchange rate.
• 6:19
  I think it was €34.90 when they put them up so they didn't even
• 6:23
  round up. Our semi official retailer being
• 6:28
  figure and lagging isn't it job Yeah, we now get on the website.
• 6:33
  They put a nice little blurb for us on their new website and we
• 6:37
  have see mentioned them in the podcast and Marcus is great
• 6:40
  there. He looks after me and sometimes
• 6:44
  you boys order figures through me or he also ships now to the
• 6:47
  UK. If you do, if you do a bigger
• 6:49
  order, that's worth it because the price of shipping, I don't
• 6:52
  think it increases beyond and that, you know, the base rate.
• 6:56
  So like it's the same price for one or two figures as it is
• 6:59
  maybe for 10, you know. So yeah, that's when it starts
• 7:02
  to make sense. Yeah, and I don't think it's too
• 7:05
  bad from Germany anyway. Is it the shipping?
• 7:08
  It's not. No, I think it's not bad.
• 7:11
  It's not like, it's not like America, you know, when you get
• 7:14
  up there for sure. For sure, and the euro is pretty
• 7:19
  good conversion rate to a pound at the moment as well, isn't it?
• 7:23
  So yeah, it's who knew the UK had to do nothing at all to get
• 7:26
  a decent? # just let the rest of the world
• 7:32
  for you. Advertise themselves.
• 7:34
  Yeah, yeah. Yeah, so that's that, that's,
• 7:38
  that's a bit of a shame that the the wooden official return in
• 7:41
  the UK is charging so much. I mean, if you wanted to just
• 7:44
  get one figure, you're probably still winning because of
• 7:48
  shipping, but anything beyond that?
• 7:51
  Anymore I'm not so sure. Maybe not like because that's
• 7:54
  what, 151516? But as soon as you hit two or
• 7:59
  more figures or you're worse off, which is ridiculous.
• 8:02
  Yeah, and the the accessory packs are like 25 lbs or
• 8:07
  something. Oh really?
• 8:08
  Oh my God. Mental and the core rule book is
• 8:11
  55 or 52 or something so just. They're pricing it almost like
• 8:16
  they just went in as a normal person back in the Kickstarter
• 8:20
  and then you just added money on, which obviously they're not
• 8:22
  because they're an official reseller.
• 8:23
  Really weird. But don't they don't they pitch
• 8:27
  themselves? Maybe it's a bit more premium, a
• 8:31
  bit more white glove service. I don't know.
• 8:33
  I mean certainly the way they package stuff and send it is
• 8:36
  absolutely top notch. I mean there's they all use
• 8:38
  almost as much bubble wrap as I do when I post stuff and like be
• 8:43
  those polystyrene B or whatever they are beads and that sort of
• 8:46
  stuff. It's really well packaged.
• 8:48
  But stuff like the the more retail type stuff like I don't
• 8:52
  know, Black series of Marvel Legends, something like that, is
• 8:55
  that more competitively priced there?
• 8:59
  I. Do not know I.
• 9:00
  Don't look for. That sort of stuff on their
• 9:02
  website, no. I can't.
• 9:04
  Although there would be more competition in the market for
• 9:06
  that as well in terms of local, it would.
• 9:08
  Be yes. I do have to be fair to them as
• 9:11
  well, they went to quite a bit of effort to make to get me
• 9:14
  those turtles Mezco figures as well, didn't they?
• 9:18
  They showed amazing customer service from that perspective,
• 9:21
  so I just wish they'd charge less for their legions.
• 9:25
  Figures. Yeah, Yep, exactly right.
• 9:30
  So we did have a couple of things crop up before we get
• 9:34
  into the in stock sale. This one big bad toy store got a
• 9:43
  unwavering soldier, so it's a new figure.
• 9:46
  It's a night with red soft goods.
• 9:50
  Supposed to go with Stavros basically.
• 9:53
  Yeah. And as we see here, if we go to
• 9:57
  the end, so they're supposed to be his his soldiers.
• 10:02
  It looks pretty cool. So it's it's a pretty much it
• 10:04
  it's like the revenant build kind of with soft goods and the
• 10:11
  different helmet attachments with cool red.
• 10:16
  The demon that comes on the like one of the vampires.
• 10:21
  I think Lord Ragool has it. Baron Bolliger maybe has it.
• 10:25
  And yeah, a bunch of different sets.
• 10:29
  You got Skelly, got human and the different two different
• 10:36
  helmets. I think it looks great.
• 10:39
  They're my favourite colours, basically red and black,
• 10:42
  favourite combination of colours.
• 10:44
  So I mean, this is that's why I like Stavros.
• 10:46
  And I'd argue this being the figure it is, I prefer this to
• 10:50
  Stavros. So yeah, I'm definitely, I
• 10:54
  probably won't get more than one, but I'll definitely pick
• 10:56
  one of them up. Yeah, I pre-ordered 2.
• 11:02
  I think there's enough parts and you know, just have a couple of
• 11:04
  them. I haven't got Stavros I have to
• 11:05
  make because I didn't particularly like the soft goods
• 11:08
  with that. But a couple of these together,
• 11:10
  I think we make good, good like guards or a little units or
• 11:13
  something like that. So I would have proved it to.
• 11:16
  And these are 60, this is $60.00, right?
• 11:20
  Yeah, which I which I thought was like $10 more than the
• 11:22
  standard price, but apparently the standard price is 55 now,
• 11:27
  right. Standard retailer prices 50.
• 11:29
  Horse roll charge it shows is 55.
• 11:31
  So it's only $5 more in that respect.
• 11:33
  So that's actually not that bad. Yeah.
• 11:36
  I mean, and you know, it's a decent amount of soft goods on
• 11:39
  it, isn't that so? Yeah.
• 11:43
  But like the pallet didn't for 60 these as well probably get
• 11:48
  more stuff. You lay a bit more with the
• 11:50
  pallet and yeah, so yeah. But yeah, exclusive to them and
• 11:55
  comes with this also if you take away soft goods, this kind of
• 11:58
  glossy red that is in the style of like the red jet fighter from
• 12:04
  Cosmic. There's been chat about it that
• 12:09
  it's a bit streaky, but they say that at the factory that'll be
• 12:13
  done better. It's very hard to do that paint
• 12:17
  job in a rush apparently on a prototype because the paint you
• 12:23
  can't use the kind of more it's chemical type paint.
• 12:28
  You have to do water based paint for this or.
• 12:31
  It's a yeah, it's not the best paints the I'm guessing similar
• 12:35
  to the these acrylics maybe and they're not, they're not easy to
• 12:41
  get a good coat on on the figures with.
• 12:46
  But I think I would never display this like this.
• 12:50
  I think the soft goods looks way better, you know it.
• 12:53
  Looks fantastic with the soft goods.
• 12:55
  They do definitely better with the soft goods, but I do really
• 12:57
  like the the colours. Yeah, pattern.
• 12:59
  And then he's actually, I wouldn't have thought I would,
• 13:01
  but actually I really like that. No, you see it on the on the
• 13:05
  pauldrons here as well still and you'll see it on the the cuffs
• 13:08
  and stuff. So and you'll see probably on
• 13:11
  the legs when you whatever we oppose it sticking out of the
• 13:16
  from the soft good so well. He's he's definitely going to
• 13:18
  have the little dragon ornament in his helmet for me as well.
• 13:20
  I think that looks really cool. I like that helmet.
• 13:23
  And what's remembering This is not officially a Mythic Legions
• 13:29
  figure. It's using Mythic Legions parts
• 13:33
  looks to all intents and purposes like Mythic Legions
• 13:36
  figure. But it's not this.
• 13:37
  Stavros and the Unwavering Soldier are not officially part
• 13:41
  of Mythic Legions. They're not branded Mythic
• 13:44
  Legions and they don't come with a bio or anything in relation to
• 13:49
  mythic legion. So yeah, may have their own bio,
• 13:54
  but not not related to Mythic Legion.
• 13:57
  I've I have a little shelf down here for non non sort of non
• 14:03
  legion non mythic. Legion ATL 25 The Cosmic.
• 14:08
  Ones as well, but no, Funnily enough I put my cosmics in with
• 14:11
  my cosmics but it's like the legendary barbarian I've put.
• 14:16
  Oh yeah, armoury characters are in there.
• 14:24
  Richard. Sorry.
• 14:28
  Boo, rich Boo. Put him in the Yeah, put him in
• 14:31
  the sin bin for a few minutes. Yeah.
• 14:37
  Actually, the Isn't the Highland Warriors going to be this
• 14:40
  weekend toy con. Yeah, it's like on New Jersey.
• 14:44
  Yeah. So that's exciting.
• 14:47
  That's another one for the that chef man Mal, whenever you get
• 14:51
  him. Yeah.
• 14:54
  And we'll have to see if our mule bread is able to secure one
• 14:59
  first, maybe. We say that because he's hung
• 15:04
  like a horse, obviously. Of course.
• 15:06
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now we know if he listens
• 15:09
  because we'll get a or if he's when when he listens to this
• 15:13
  episode, we'll get a message about.
• 15:15
  Hopefully we don't get a picture.
• 15:18
  That's all I hope. It'll be very artistic if we do
• 15:23
  say yeah. Tasteful, tasteful.
• 15:26
  So that's the unwavering soldier, a cool figure to pick
• 15:28
  up GUI on. For example, things that might
• 15:30
  fit in with his Tigerian army that he will he's building for
• 15:34
  his Game of Thrones kind of cannon in his own head and and
• 15:39
  customs that he does so. It's great for that scheme. 60
• 15:44
  per custom fodder is always tough but I mean if you're
• 15:47
  saying 55 is the new price then and plus what?
• 15:50
  Whatever the UK retailer charges, 60 seems cheap dollars
• 15:54
  wise. Speaking of the UK retailer,
• 15:58
  I've just double check their website and they don't sell
• 16:00
  stuff like Black series of Marvel Legends, OK.
• 16:02
  So I think they regard themselves as a slightly higher
• 16:04
  end sort of collectible sorts. Loads of Mayfax and all that.
• 16:07
  Sort of, yeah. Yeah, lots of that.
• 16:09
  Sort of stuff, but yeah. I see.
• 16:14
  Fair enough. I mean, you know, it's a bit
• 16:16
  like umm, High Street stores like like Forbidden Planet and
• 16:20
  stuff if they were to sell regions.
• 16:22
  So I'm sure they would be at a little bit of an extra cost.
• 16:25
  Yeah. Oh yeah.
• 16:27
  This is Chris. James And you're listening to
• 16:29
  the Eurolegions podcast. Right.
• 16:34
  Shall we get into the in stock sale 1st and then we'll finish
• 16:38
  off with Cosmic? How about that?
• 16:40
  So yours today, Mr Gerard posted through the official channels a
• 16:49
  couple of pictures here so we get some details.
• 16:53
  So we're going to go through the figures individually in a couple
• 16:55
  of minutes and talk about maybe what we're going to get and what
• 16:59
  we think might sell out and what's cool.
• 17:01
  And especially with the armoury guys, parts that are most
• 17:06
  interesting. So if we look here at the
• 17:12
  figures, these are the ones that were available at Legions
• 17:15
  consoles, couple of ones with limits and but they all have
• 17:19
  limits except for Toff. For England.
• 17:21
  Yeah, Koi limit of 2, the legacies of Mythos figures,
• 17:29
  Garfoid and Valgard. They have a limit of two as
• 17:32
  well, and no limits on the Toth figure.
• 17:36
  Obscure will also be some all in bundles with Pain and Mug.
• 17:41
  So that's a bit there's a bit of an OCD one mouth.
• 17:45
  If you click the pin and the mug and you've already got a tough.
• 17:48
  What do you do there? The train I.
• 17:53
  Don't want. I saw, I saw.
• 17:54
  I saw in the comments of the post that the pin is also
• 17:58
  available separately. Right.
• 18:01
  That might be 1 to throw in the basket, yeah.
• 18:03
  Sometimes the mug is available separately as well, isn't it?
• 18:06
  So you might be. True, true.
• 18:07
  Yeah, the Revenant and the warrior limit of 2.
• 18:16
  So it means you can do one of each build.
• 18:18
  If you get the two Shirella and the Nymph, same thing, limit of
• 18:22
  two. And then the armoury is limit of
• 18:27
  one for each style. So if you look here at these
• 18:32
  figures, you can buy one of each of the different colour colours
• 18:38
  basically. And if you buy that there's an
• 18:43
  all in available, you get them all, but then you can't add any
• 18:47
  single one after that. And I think. 4 hours at least,
• 18:51
  yeah. 1st 24 hours, if there's anything, whatever remains after
• 18:54
  24 hours, you can go nuts. So yeah.
• 18:59
  Jeremy was very clear on his programme.
• 19:00
  He expects the the army of the Gladiators particularly just to
• 19:04
  go because obviously you saw allegiance come, they under
• 19:07
  ordered what the demand was, so they'll have done the same with
• 19:10
  this and now Italy. What we've seen how long the
• 19:13
  nights hung around and they were popular and so they must have
• 19:18
  done a big run of those and they still have some available on the
• 19:22
  website and I don't think that will be the case with these.
• 19:25
  Feels a bit like they possibly overcorrected, doesn't it?
• 19:28
  But it's not overcorrecting to them if they sold all that they
• 19:32
  wanted to sell. Is it so so over correcting to
• 19:35
  those of us who maybe didn't get everything we wanted?
• 19:38
  And they still have plenty of different figures on their
• 19:41
  website for sure. For sure.
• 19:43
  You know, they will also have some Necronominus wave in stock
• 19:50
  and everything in the Necronominus wave except for
• 19:54
  Elijah and Sir Jack is available.
• 19:59
  So I don't think there's limits on those.
• 20:04
  And this is their last online stock of these, so you might get
• 20:09
  them a chose in the future. But if you want to get them
• 20:12
  online direct, now's your chance.
• 20:15
  Some of these still available retail as well.
• 20:18
  So, but I think these will be going up for the the original
• 20:23
  Horseman price and these were lower.
• 20:25
  These are like the 37 or maybe 40 for standard figures.
• 20:29
  So I would be in. Might be tempting there.
• 20:32
  Sorry, John, I was just going to say I think these might be the
• 20:34
  ones that they the first ones they put about 50 on the.
• 20:37
  Maybe, maybe we'll see. We'll see.
• 20:41
  I do have the prices for the for the other ones that we as we're
• 20:45
  going through the figures, we'll talk about the prices and also
• 20:52
  worth talking about. They also put a limited run of
• 20:55
  Cosmic with the head packs up in stock.
• 20:58
  So you remember the Cosmic head packs Wave 1, they went up for
• 21:03
  pre-order this time last year around or maybe a little bit
• 21:05
  earlier than this and have been delivered and now this is kind
• 21:12
  of the in stock sale of those. So these are the combo packs.
• 21:16
  So you get figures from wave 1, Luxurian plus the head packs,
• 21:21
  Greyborn plus the head pack, the the different tigers plus the
• 21:24
  head packs for great prices. I mean, you're talking $40.00
• 21:28
  for the figure and the head packs, so they're on the website
• 21:32
  now. If you're interested in any of
• 21:34
  those, go for the best. Vaccines are a great deal there.
• 21:37
  And it yeps, factions are amongst, but still amongst my
• 21:40
  favourite figures in the the whole of legions and that Syrian
• 21:45
  body, even if you just want it for sort of fodder, it's very
• 21:48
  cool colours and outfits and and you know, yeah.
• 21:57
  We see you got brilliant. I was just going to speak of
• 22:01
  what they've got in stock as well.
• 22:02
  They've still got Swigs, so if anyone's panicking, they had had
• 22:05
  a chance to buy Swigs yet. They've still got Swigs.
• 22:10
  Yeah, someone posted till the day.
• 22:12
  What's your least favourite Legion?
• 22:16
  I didn't want to. I thought it was a bit negative,
• 22:18
  so I didn't really want to file in on it.
• 22:20
  But I think this week or Hagnon, maybe blue Hagnon, especially
• 22:25
  our regular Hagnon, the first Hagnon, I think unique one of
• 22:30
  what you know, one of one. When they did the blue, then I
• 22:32
  was like, Oh no, it kind. And the blue had been kind of
• 22:36
  ruined. The original hang on as well for
• 22:38
  me. Although that's still bad.
• 22:41
  Maybe. Maybe that's because I'm petty.
• 22:43
  All rich, right? We're not good.
• 22:45
  I didn't want this to slide into negative Sir Valgard.
• 22:51
  Look at him there. So.
• 22:54
  These are cool, Dave. Or Valgard 2.
• 22:56
  To give him these property and 55 dollars and he'll be
• 23:02
  available dwarf full of it's the old dwarf parts but good and
• 23:08
  that what originally came on the Centaur of various skirt piece
• 23:14
  that's also on the revenant in a different colour scheme
• 23:16
  obviously. Yeah, he's great and the eagle
• 23:20
  pauldrons are great and have we enough of him from Legions Con
• 23:27
  or anyone getting them? I've got 4 from legions con, but
• 23:33
  I'm going to use the human builds for all four of those so
• 23:36
  I need an actual Saval guard for my display as well so I'll be
• 23:38
  getting one of them. I'm thinking I'll get one more
• 23:43
  just I only got 1 now. I've got 2 regions con, one to
• 23:47
  make the human build and one to make Saval guard and I get one
• 23:51
  more just as a fodder slash. You know, just in case kind of
• 23:57
  figure because he is very cool. Very.
• 23:59
  Very cool. Yeah, I think I I think I have
• 24:04
  enough. I think I got 2, but even if I
• 24:06
  just got one, I think 1 is enough for me.
• 24:11
  Scaphoid version 2, also 55. Limited to two I've.
• 24:19
  Got 1 scaphoid, I think I'm going to get another one of him
• 24:21
  for parts because that I do really having looked at him for
• 24:24
  longer, I really like the the cloth goods and yeah, the boots
• 24:30
  and everything are already very cool anyway, yeah.
• 24:34
  Yeah, I don't get any more of him.
• 24:36
  I've got about 7 or 8 of the original scaphoids, so that's
• 24:40
  plenty of all the scaphoid coloured heads and that sort of
• 24:42
  stuff I want to do. And I got picked up two of these
• 24:43
  guys at Legions Con as well, so I think I'm probably done for
• 24:47
  for scaphoid. Same here.
• 24:50
  Same here Revenant, this one is going to go get in, check out
• 24:58
  with him if you really want him and two of each very happy if he
• 25:05
  got 2 and what do you think you're going to go for him
• 25:10
  again? Yeah, I only picked up the one
• 25:13
  that Legions gone, so I will definitely be going for two more
• 25:16
  of him. Yeah, I mean, this first
• 25:18
  pictures the warrior, second one's the Revenant.
• 25:20
  Same figure though. Same figure, yeah.
• 25:23
  Yeah, I wonder if they they'll do them in two different boxes
• 25:26
  of the two builds. Maybe it's not worth it, is it?
• 25:29
  No no, it'll just be the one with whatever way he was
• 25:33
  displayed at legions con. It'll be the other build
• 25:37
  displayed on the this one. You're right, I can't remember
• 25:41
  because he unboxed all of ours. I think it's that one at legions
• 25:45
  come. Maybe that'll be the other one.
• 25:48
  I've got, I've got three of them at Legions Con, one to do each
• 25:51
  of the figures and one to do a cross between with a David
• 25:54
  Williams head on it. So that's all I need of them.
• 25:59
  Yeah, I'm not even particularly bothered about doing the Raven
• 26:01
  and the Warrior. I just I think it's a cool
• 26:03
  colour scheme and just use for customs.
• 26:06
  If you like, if you like, you're more of that.
• 26:08
  Yeah, that'd be great. Yeah, if I'm, if I participate
• 26:12
  in the sale, because I'm not sure yet, it'll be an under day
• 26:16
  decision, I'll go. I'll definitely try and pick up
• 26:20
  the two of him because great for customs as Rich said, but also I
• 26:25
  mean great just to have extras of him if you ever need to trade
• 26:29
  for something else down the line or you know something like that
• 26:34
  great figure or even just selling down the line, he's
• 26:37
  going to sell for more than you buy him.
• 26:40
  Simple equation there and Nim Shirelle so there's nymph
• 26:48
  Israel. I mean, these are good figures
• 26:52
  for two they're. Awesome.
• 26:53
  Yeah, they're awesome. They look really, really cool.
• 26:56
  I've got, I've got, I've got a spare one of them as well.
• 26:59
  I think I picked up three of them and haven't decided what to
• 27:02
  do with the third one yet. So I just thought she looked
• 27:06
  cool and wanted the the different bits and pieces to
• 27:09
  possibly use on other things, but not decided what yet.
• 27:13
  Yeah. Yeah, I won't be getting any
• 27:16
  more of these. I'll show 1 as the Shirelle and
• 27:18
  I think that's it. I'm not bothered about having
• 27:20
  the nymph and I'm not not bothered about having the four
• 27:22
  crossroads characters displayed sort of thing.
• 27:24
  So I don't need any more. Yeah, for me, getting extras of
• 27:30
  these for customs, there's too many bare parts.
• 27:34
  So unless you have that kind of a custom in mind, don't really
• 27:39
  need it. And yeah, if you have the two
• 27:42
  for displaying in your display, if you want to display them,
• 27:44
  that's enough for me for sure. Mr Coy, this is a figure I got a
• 27:52
  lot of adletions con, but he's so good I could get another 2.
• 27:59
  This is the thing with me, I've I've got 3 and it's like I would
• 28:04
  if it's weird. The paint scheme is amazing but
• 28:06
  it's so specific. If it wasn't that specific I'd
• 28:09
  probably get try and get 2 more but there's only so many koi
• 28:14
  coloured fish you can have and not being a painter myself I'm
• 28:17
  I'm reluctant to absolutely butcher a koi.
• 28:21
  Just trying to paint the orange bits blue or something instead
• 28:23
  or whatever sort of thing. So.
• 28:25
  So I'm torn but I probably won't get any.
• 28:28
  The only thing that's maybe tempting me is I don't have any
• 28:30
  inbox. All the ones I brought back were
• 28:32
  loose but that's not enough reason to spend $50.
• 28:36
  Me two years ago would have done that.
• 28:38
  Me now is like no, no. No, no, yeah, I got 2 at Legions
• 28:43
  Colonel, though ones ended up as fodder because he was a bit
• 28:45
  scuffed on his chest, but ones yeah, like you rich, even even
• 28:51
  as somebody dabbles with a bit of customising.
• 28:53
  He's such a striking paint app and all and and figure anyway I
• 29:00
  don't need more than one of him so.
• 29:03
  Did I tell you guys actually when I had a home massage, like
• 29:06
  deep tissue massage with the very tall guy that comes around
• 29:09
  and beats me up for an hour and I pay him for.
• 29:11
  Yeah, he'd, he'd listened to all our episodes.
• 29:15
  He was interested what the podcast was about sort of thing.
• 29:16
  So I showed him McCoy and he was so, so impressed.
• 29:19
  He took a picture of it to show his friends.
• 29:21
  He's like this ring a bell? I don't know if you told us.
• 29:24
  That a massage now? I think this is an impressive
• 29:33
  looking figure for even for someone that doesn't collector
• 29:38
  has interest in figures. If you know what I.
• 29:41
  Mean, I think, I think legions as a whole, I think, yeah,
• 29:43
  people have this idea of what an action figure is.
• 29:46
  And you go, I know, no, look at this.
• 29:50
  Wow. That's true, and he does come
• 29:55
  with great parts for customising if you take away.
• 30:00
  If you're not going to repaint anything, you could still use
• 30:03
  all his armour for other figures.
• 30:07
  Yeah, jazzing up your bride fighters rich for example is a
• 30:11
  great option with this. I've heard the flocking him is
• 30:15
  the best option in the bride fighter.
• 30:21
  Sorry I would never default my bride fighters.
• 30:23
  Just to clear, I'm not good. No, not acceptable, right Coy?
• 30:33
  Get him. If you haven't got him,
• 30:34
  definitely get him. Yeah, absolutely.
• 30:36
  If you haven't got him 100% game, he's fabulous.
• 30:37
  Yeah, yeah. So this is the all the figures
• 30:40
  so far until Koi were 55. This koi is 50, so and you see
• 30:47
  all the stuff you get with him there.
• 30:48
  So good deal. And moving on to top figure
• 30:55
  Obscura, new parts, new bird parts, for example, the feet.
• 31:01
  These are new. And let's let.
• 31:10
  The spot for me. Let let's Rich talk about tough,
• 31:15
  sorry. I really like him, I probably
• 31:20
  will get another one I think in the in stock 2 reasons.
• 31:25
  The one I brought back with me again was unboxed and the the
• 31:27
  box is really cool for the figure obscure.
• 31:30
  So I was a bit of a shame I took him out-of-the-box.
• 31:32
  And also I can get another sort of Egyptian deity head painted
• 31:38
  up to go well with that body as well.
• 31:40
  I've got a couple of them painted, one sat with breath at
• 31:43
  the moment, so once I get hold of those I can get one of those
• 31:45
  painted up. And as he comes with normal
• 31:48
  human feet anyway, then yeah, I think I will probably get
• 31:52
  another one of him. One is enough for me.
• 31:55
  So he's $60.00 with no limits. That's the standard figure.
• 32:00
  Obscure price and. He does come with a little pen
• 32:05
  too. Yeah, which?
• 32:07
  Breaks off his fingers so easily I've had to clue it back on at
• 32:12
  least once and I think it's currently in there sat at his
• 32:16
  feet. What do you do?
• 32:18
  Touching it the minute you try to push his hand on.
• 32:24
  If you put accidentally put pressure anywhere near the the
• 32:26
  pen. I mean, it's, I don't, it is a
• 32:30
  fantastic looking figure, you know, he just doesn't do it for
• 32:33
  me at all. And, you know, that's after
• 32:36
  sitting and looking and, and just I'm not, it's just, I don't
• 32:40
  know. Yeah.
• 32:41
  The gods of Egypt ones, I don't know.
• 32:44
  They're just not quite doing it for me now.
• 32:46
  I've had them for a bit. Well, as long as you're not like
• 32:49
  sausage fingers Kennedy, you should be OK with the little pen
• 32:52
  thing. So.
• 32:55
  Yeah, I made the controversial opinion on our Discord this week
• 33:00
  that he may be was released early at Legions Con because he
• 33:04
  wasn't exciting enough as a kind of a figure single.
• 33:08
  Release shame on you job. That was a good way to get him
• 33:14
  out without taking a slot, so to speak, from the figure calendar.
• 33:22
  I don't know. I mean, maybe there won't be
• 33:24
  another figure until later in the year.
• 33:26
  I think this will be this will cover this.
• 33:30
  This, this, and I'm sure, I'm, I'm sure I'm wrong, but I mean,
• 33:34
  I guess it makes a certain type of point in that I think it's
• 33:38
  not that exciting. You see, I wondered if it was to
• 33:40
  sort of show off the bird feet and get a bit of excitement
• 33:44
  about the fact that they've got the bird feet ready to go and
• 33:49
  which leads on to something we might talk about.
• 33:52
  Yeah, originally. I was thinking we might get the
• 33:54
  female figure that was shown on the box, the Toth box as well.
• 33:58
  I can't for life remember her name, sorry.
• 34:02
  But it looked a bit like Bastet. But it wasn't Bastet, it was one
• 34:04
  of the one of the female cat goddesses.
• 34:07
  So originally I was thinking, oh, she's going to be released
• 34:09
  when this guy goes up. But as Mal said, we've had a
• 34:12
  peek at something else, so you never know now.
• 34:16
  Well yeah, we might as well talk about that then.
• 34:19
  Seems like a good time as any. So basically they posted just a
• 34:26
  random post. This is pure pure conjecture on
• 34:29
  our part. Well, of course it is.
• 34:31
  We don't know we. It's clear we don't know S about
• 34:35
  S, but they I'm. Right.
• 34:41
  But they they posted the post just the great beasts of mythos
• 34:45
  and and obviously you have your Lee Odysseus and Basilia who
• 34:48
  were recently released, probably still on pre-order available in
• 34:53
  in some places and Zylona and ether on, you know, the old
• 34:59
  versions. And basically linking to an
• 35:01
  article on the website and saying that we've already yeah
• 35:08
  and basically saying that the you know, these have been
• 35:13
  confirmed that legions can that they will be released.
• 35:17
  So that was the not the last legions gone the previous one at
• 35:22
  some point. And I guess that means they
• 35:26
  might be coming at some stage soon would be our guess.
• 35:29
  No it. Makes you wonder why they posted
• 35:34
  it when they did, doesn't it? I think there's two options.
• 35:38
  I think initially we all thought, oh, it could be an in
• 35:40
  stock drop. I think more likely, and I can't
• 35:45
  get credit for this idea because somebody else posted it in one
• 35:47
  of the Discord groups that it might be there.
• 35:50
  The two figures or the first revealed set of figures for
• 35:54
  legions come this year, because Jeremy's been saying for a while
• 35:57
  he wanted to reveal the first the first set in April.
• 36:01
  So it wouldn't surprise me if they.
• 36:03
  Were ideally that yeah, that does feel more likely to me.
• 36:08
  Yeah. And then you sorry, my legs
• 36:11
  going to say. And then you can get them around
• 36:12
  about the same time as you get Leah, Disseus and Bastet,
• 36:15
  presuming they come out towards the end of the year or very
• 36:18
  early next year. Yeah.
• 36:21
  But then do you think really that they would never put those
• 36:27
  two up for pre-order? You know that that they would
• 36:32
  just do an in stock drop at Legions Con as an exclusive.
• 36:36
  So they have to gauge the numbers there and then they will
• 36:38
  do an afterwards that's. Why I don't think they'll be
• 36:42
  part of the in stock sale because I think they I mean,
• 36:46
  yeah. But if they put if, yeah.
• 36:47
  But if they drop them at legions con as one of the exclusives
• 36:49
  with say an extra head or whatever it is, you'll be just
• 36:53
  different packaging then. They said they'd be available in
• 36:55
  standard version later. I think they'd have to be
• 37:00
  pre-order element to that. Otherwise you can't have like
• 37:06
  such important characters that are being re released and then
• 37:09
  like don't let everyone pick up as many as they want on a
• 37:13
  pre-order basically. You know, that would be a bit.
• 37:15
  No, unfortunately you struggle with that.
• 37:18
  I mean if the extra head was the battle antlers, then a lot of
• 37:22
  people are going to want that. So you absolutely you couldn't
• 37:26
  have that as the additional 1 so.
• 37:28
  Maybe that's the one you could do because barely anyone would
• 37:31
  care. Or they did.
• 37:35
  Maybe they'll maybe they will be dropped in the in stock next
• 37:38
  week and then they'll do like they did with Otho and Ozil.
• 37:41
  Yeah. And then just do a pre-order
• 37:43
  afterwards. That would make more sense to
• 37:45
  me. Or simply a pre-order would make
• 37:48
  the most sense to me. One of those two options, I
• 37:53
  think the it's cool the the auto owners act the way they did it,
• 37:57
  but it does create a kind of a secondary market inflation for
• 38:02
  like that period, which where then people will, you know, will
• 38:08
  profit, Whereas I mean, that might happen eventually anyway
• 38:12
  with a pre-order, but it prevents it.
• 38:14
  So I don't know. It's it's worth thinking about,
• 38:19
  but won't say no to any of those scenarios.
• 38:21
  Basically, you know. They're fine with me.
• 38:25
  They all mean we get in this year, which is.
• 38:27
  And there could be another scenario as well, but let's see,
• 38:31
  you know, right, Armoury gladiators look at them.
• 38:36
  So these are them with their unhelmeted heads and the
• 38:41
  helmeted heads and those ones with the little flamy like the
• 38:49
  green flames here and the the red helmet there with the kind
• 38:52
  of pinkish flames. They're my favourite helmets of
• 38:56
  of what comes with these, I think.
• 39:01
  But you get all the different types.
• 39:03
  So yeah, you get the gold 1, the classic gladiator helmet like
• 39:09
  the came on. No pixels Calavius.
• 39:15
  Oh, sorry. Yeah, it's the middle of one,
• 39:18
  Yeah. And then you get that Gladiator
• 39:21
  first came on the Gladiator Deluxe Legion builder.
• 39:24
  And then obviously the other one is the Marley bonus surprise
• 39:28
  head with those little things. I, I had my, one of my bills
• 39:36
  from Legions Con on display in the sit room for a while in a
• 39:42
  little small display ahead with the stuff that I got from
• 39:45
  Legions Con and one of those orange flame or I coming out the
• 39:51
  eye things is disappeared. So it's gone up in the Hoover
• 39:57
  pretty sure. Yeah, it's at the end of the
• 40:02
  word. It's just annoying, right?
• 40:05
  Figure by figure. So these are £45 each.
• 40:10
  Limited to one, you'll have to team up with a friend if you if
• 40:16
  you want to get more than one. For example, our friend Brett
• 40:21
  wants the green and the bluish coloured 1.
• 40:23
  So if you're not getting those and you know Brett, get them and
• 40:29
  he'll trade you with something cool.
• 40:30
  So, you know, that's an idea, but I don't think they'll stick
• 40:35
  around for long. So it'll be a quick decision.
• 40:38
  Would it be worth here? If you're interested in more
• 40:41
  than one or two and you have the cash, just get the all in, get
• 40:45
  out. It's.
• 40:51
  The main thing I'm going to get from the from the from the sale,
• 40:55
  if I can use the all in because there's two or three of them are
• 40:58
  one. I know a couple of other people
• 41:00
  who want the other ones. So see if I can get them to get
• 41:04
  the other one one, right. We can do some trades, yeah.
• 41:10
  Yeah, right. And let's go through them one by
• 41:16
  one then the vampire one. Red armour, all armors apart
• 41:24
  from the white vampire bits. So no leather boots, leather
• 41:27
  stuff here. And they're all it's working on.
• 41:31
  They're all bare arms. And they come with the kind of
• 41:34
  slide over things that came with some of the skeletons.
• 41:39
  Anonymous waves. Yeah.
• 41:41
  And Thoracus yet? Thoracus.
• 41:43
  Yeah. He must be on your list, Rich.
• 41:47
  Definitely, yes. I'm going to get one myself and
• 41:50
  as me and Mr. Kennedy have hinted that there'll be a swap
• 41:52
  deal involving another one of these coming to me and something
• 41:57
  going to Mr. Kennedy. So yeah, and this originally I
• 42:00
  was, I was going to get like I think 4 was my original plan and
• 42:03
  then they said the one per thing and was like oh, because I
• 42:06
  bought like 3 different heads at Legions Con which will match
• 42:09
  this paint scheme. So but there we go.
• 42:13
  Yeah, they can rotate the head, so that's fine.
• 42:17
  And this red is close to Vargas too, right?
• 42:21
  It's sort of been in the middle of Eve August's.
• 42:25
  Yeah, it works with them, but yeah.
• 42:27
  It's closer to August 2 than it is to the Armoury Knight Red.
• 42:31
  Yeah, so. The red 1 so kind of fury armour
• 42:40
  armoury. This is 1 I need because I
• 42:43
  didn't get a red one or a green 1.
• 42:45
  So if I was participating, I'd be trying to get the red and the
• 42:49
  green. If I if I get the oil in, this
• 42:54
  is kind of the one that just I have to get because it's part of
• 42:58
  the oil in to be honest with me, it's the one I'm least
• 43:02
  interested in. I think that's the same to me,
• 43:05
  this, which is random because I've got an entire shelf of Fury
• 43:08
  clan figures, but there's something about this just
• 43:11
  doesn't work for me. So yeah, again, not.
• 43:15
  Fun. Is it the red on red?
• 43:18
  I don't think it is. I think maybe it's the gloss
• 43:20
  black with the red that doesn't quite work.
• 43:23
  And maybe in that case I'm being stupid by not thinking.
• 43:25
  Well, I've got the red torso and the red arms and the red hands
• 43:28
  and that sort of thing. But.
• 43:29
  It's it's. You can always pop and swap.
• 43:31
  For me, yeah, you. Can always pop and swap.
• 43:35
  But then having just done a quick calculation about getting
• 43:38
  an all in and what that works out per figure, I might just go
• 43:40
  all in anyway. In which case, yeah, I can.
• 43:45
  I can make do with it. I can make use of the parts.
• 43:47
  Also might be able to get up a red one off either of you then
• 43:51
  yeah. Cool.
• 43:53
  I would like a red Bardrick head.
• 43:56
  That's cool you. Can definitely have that.
• 44:01
  Yeah, absolutely. Have that for now.
• 44:05
  Yeah, yeah. The human Caucasian Magnus.
• 44:14
  Old man Magnus Head. This is the hard one for me
• 44:17
  because I really, really want this one.
• 44:20
  But I want him for the parts. But I also think he's the best
• 44:24
  figure in the in the pre made build.
• 44:27
  So I'm going to have, I'm going to have to leave him like that,
• 44:32
  Yeah. I got a question did.
• 44:35
  You guys pick up like this colour flesh at Legions con,
• 44:39
  yeah. Yeah.
• 44:41
  How? Light is it compared to say like
• 44:44
  the barbarian parts last time? Because I've got an idea about
• 44:47
  what what I want to do with the bare flash parts from this, but
• 44:50
  if they need to be relatively pale.
• 44:52
  Then it's not to work. It's not pale, but it's not as
• 44:55
  dark as the legendary barbarian. Oh OK, I'll let my weather cool.
• 44:59
  Yeah, is it? Isn't it close enough to the
• 45:03
  original barbarian? I think the original Barbarians
• 45:07
  a bit bit more orangey than this.
• 45:09
  This is a bit more of their more modern skin tones that they do
• 45:12
  in. Although some of that's quite
• 45:14
  orange, isn't it? I've got it.
• 45:18
  I've got it, yeah, but you can't.
• 45:20
  It's not going to really show up.
• 45:22
  It's got a sort of. It's not a far off.
• 45:26
  You big mouth wave it again. It's it's not far off.
• 45:32
  OK, Yeah. What's the colour?
• 45:38
  Oh, because it's not. Far off Kadian flesh, but then
• 45:42
  with a with a some sort of lighter shade over the top of
• 45:47
  it. OK, I found it quite a light
• 45:51
  skin tone in, in mythics terms, Rich.
• 45:55
  Yeah, so. Yeah, Grand.
• 45:57
  OK, that's going to work very well.
• 45:58
  And I have a plans for a particular character.
• 46:02
  Yeah, I picked up pretty much almost pretty much this build at
• 46:06
  Legions con. So I think I got a different
• 46:10
  second head. I didn't get the the gold 1.
• 46:16
  I think I picked like we were all like Magpies who picked the
• 46:19
  exclusive. Yes, he's got the blue.
• 46:25
  The heads with. Blue Pants and the exclusives.
• 46:28
  Yeah, it was the legs and the. You went for those boots?
• 46:32
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the blue pants and the brown
• 46:36
  boots work really well it. Looks so good, doesn't it?
• 46:39
  Yeah, I love that colour combination.
• 46:42
  Yeah, right, Mr Blue Demon Belfigord Blue demon Plus Marley
• 46:49
  head helmet with the green coming out of it, red pants,
• 46:52
  weird glass, black armoured bits and black boots.
• 46:59
  No keen on the armour for him. I like.
• 47:02
  I don't mind the red upper pants, I'll use those for
• 47:05
  something, but I actually was. You got one of these, didn't you
• 47:08
  think, John? And.
• 47:09
  I I didn't, I got one of these. Yeah, yeah, different pants
• 47:13
  combo I think. The great or so I didn't get one
• 47:16
  at legions con it it looks really, really smart and it got
• 47:20
  to a point where I was like, well, I'll just get the the pre
• 47:22
  builds because and I want to get this one for sure more for the
• 47:27
  for the flesh bits than the the armour bits.
• 47:32
  Yeah. I wasn't fussed about this one
• 47:36
  at all until I saw a bill that someone on the Cabal showed
• 47:39
  where they'd taken the Dispatar head and used it on a Canox
• 47:43
  vault torso. But it but I'm thinking the
• 47:46
  Dispatar head will go really well with a bare flesh tone on
• 47:49
  this. So now I now want one of these
• 47:51
  to have a a beefy scorpion or whatever the heck.
• 47:57
  The the it's not that obviously, but whatever they the race is
• 48:01
  called. So yeah, I'll be good.
• 48:03
  So I've talked with someone to an all in.
• 48:04
  Basically I will be trying for an all in.
• 48:12
  Yeah, I don't like this particular build, but yeah, I
• 48:22
  kind of try and get up the bill. I did Legions Con here if I can
• 48:26
  do it. Yeah, I will say, I say I don't
• 48:30
  like the armour is mostly I'm not too fussed by the the boots
• 48:33
  part of him, the lower leg. I do like the chainmail shoulder
• 48:37
  pads. I like that, that one, that belt
• 48:40
  piece, that's one of the belt pieces I really like and want to
• 48:43
  see. Here we go, see, I got him with.
• 48:54
  That looks really cool. Yeah.
• 48:56
  So it's the blue pants and black boots, which I think is coming
• 49:01
  with the green one or similar with the green ones and then the
• 49:05
  more metallic stuff. So yeah, I think that just looks
• 49:09
  like a better build of a figure. So I wouldn't wouldn't really
• 49:16
  display that guy like this, you know, But cool, cool bunch of
• 49:23
  parts, especially that extra head with the green.
• 49:26
  Yeah, that's that I really like as well.
• 49:29
  Yeah. Green guy and Oh no, he comes
• 49:33
  with the metallic pants. Yeah.
• 49:37
  But the black, he has the same black boots with the weathering
• 49:39
  on them. This is a cool looking figure.
• 49:44
  That's it. This one works really well as a
• 49:47
  figure itself. It's not those legs particularly
• 49:51
  so. Your legs, Yeah.
• 49:52
  Yeah, worked out a trade with someone else for the for the
• 49:55
  leg, but I'll keep the belt and the body if they're all right
• 49:59
  with that. I think they are from what was
• 50:00
  said. Rich.
• 50:05
  Again, I mean, obviously now I'm going all in, I'll have one of
• 50:08
  these, but I got the green parts Legions con and I don't think
• 50:13
  I'm bothered enough about the rest of the parts to keep those.
• 50:16
  So I know a friend of ours is interested in bits of this, so I
• 50:20
  will probably be constantly in said person as well, and soon if
• 50:23
  you want. Love the pauldrons on this guy.
• 50:26
  They're the they are the amazing.
• 50:29
  Yeah. And this guy I.
• 50:36
  Really want, but I'll combine him with some of the parts of
• 50:41
  the other ones to get in close to what I want.
• 50:44
  So he has the blue pants, but the more glossy black?
• 50:49
  Yeah, boots, leather boots. Rich, you're going to get this
• 50:55
  guy or I mean, you know you're getting him, but you're going to
• 50:57
  keep this guy or. No, I will be trading him to a
• 51:00
  certain. Podcast.
• 51:07
  Yeah, this is because he's he's got.
• 51:08
  Yeah, he's cool. Yeah, I mean, I really like the
• 51:12
  the head with the face paints on, but I picked up the bad
• 51:14
  flesh parts. No, I picked up the parts.
• 51:15
  The Legion's gone. OK, So yeah, Yeah.
• 51:18
  No, so I don't. It's the legs, isn't it?
• 51:21
  All more than anything. So yeah.
• 51:22
  No. So I've got the the flash parts.
• 51:24
  So yeah, I'm quite happy to let this this one fly.
• 51:28
  Cool. Very good.
• 51:30
  They all come with these accessories.
• 51:32
  So mini bells pack that big massive sword.
• 51:39
  What would you call that? It's kind of a massive sword.
• 51:45
  It's a wide, thick one. Is it called the?
• 51:49
  Yeah, I think it is a dwarf sword.
• 51:50
  I think it might be the Dwarf sword.
• 51:52
  Yeah, the dwarf sword suddenly looks a bit lower.
• 51:54
  Yeah, the axe with the wooden handle, the kind of more
• 51:57
  handheld axe. Yes, it comes with that, I
• 51:59
  think. Yeah, cool hammer that comes
• 52:02
  with Aisha, I want to say. Yeah.
• 52:06
  With the with the two different tops on it and basic and upper
• 52:10
  own shield but nicely done it's. Proper wall hammer.
• 52:13
  Isn't it the proper Yeah, oldie style 1?
• 52:16
  Not quite. See.
• 52:18
  Yeah, you got like, you know, the Mace, the axe and the hammer
• 52:22
  all combined very on which end you hit some, you know, you're
• 52:24
  gonna do serious amounts of damage.
• 52:27
  Yeah, pick as well if you want to, yeah.
• 52:30
  So that's the in stock sale. So if you're barring other
• 52:35
  surprises, that's it. Plus the Necronominus.
• 52:38
  Anyone going for more Necronominus?
• 52:42
  Yeah, having just sorted out what it'll cost me to buy the
• 52:44
  rest of the stuff that I want now I'm going all in.
• 52:46
  Probably not, no. I was debating maybe a dead
• 52:49
  legion builder pack as I've got 3, but obviously the the the
• 52:55
  zombie parts are so cool. Like creating another one.
• 52:58
  But I might hold on. Hey ladies and gents, this is
• 53:00
  Dewiz Adam Power on YouTube and you're listening to the Euro
• 53:05
  Legions podcast. But let's go into Ox Crew, the
• 53:09
  Harrow Zone. So wave 2 arrived here this
• 53:12
  week, same with Mal and it's been shipping consistently from
• 53:17
  the Horsemen for the last week or so.
• 53:20
  Also Fade in Thanos are shipping and I think Mal is might have
• 53:24
  got his. Yeah.
• 53:26
  And we'll talk about them and when we get them, the rich got
• 53:30
  his as well. So maybe next week.
• 53:31
  We'll talk about opening, but I've.
• 53:32
  No, I've no mine are arriving tomorrow.
• 53:35
  The usual trick of arriving in Luxembourg on Monday and sitting
• 53:39
  there till Thursday to be delivered it it it always comes
• 53:47
  up it's like tantalising it's like a oh delivery exception
• 53:50
  dates are requested OK and then no, no change to the delivery
• 53:55
  date and then it just nothing happens.
• 53:57
  It's. Like it's haunting you, John,
• 53:59
  every time. Yeah, exactly right, actor.
• 54:07
  So I got him here. He's a he's the little, the
• 54:16
  Biblin they call them. Biblin, yes.
• 54:18
  So seen there on screen. Very cool person.
• 54:24
  Very, very cool. So much character to him as
• 54:26
  well, isn't it? Yeah.
• 54:27
  So it's two, it's two different heads.
• 54:34
  I think I prefer the helmeted 1 even though the other one is
• 54:36
  cool as well. And.
• 54:40
  Sort of makes me a bit different, OK?
• 54:45
  Yeah. OK, yeah, it makes him a
• 54:48
  complete different character, doesn't it?
• 54:50
  So the I've only seen him through the box, but the paint
• 54:54
  tap on him that white and the blue is so, so striking.
• 54:59
  Gets me very excited for him. The manta ray we're going to
• 55:04
  get. I forgot his name.
• 55:05
  Oh. Yeah, from the the latest G con
• 55:10
  wave. Yes yeah, because it gives off
• 55:12
  mobile. Mobile, Yeah, because it gives
• 55:15
  off aquatic vibes, the colours, ears or so it.
• 55:17
  Does I was going to say I'm debating whether I can get away
• 55:19
  with the unhelmeted head is using that as like some sort of
• 55:22
  weird shark man obviously, and then having it in my mythics.
• 55:27
  Oh yeah. It has a faction as well.
• 55:28
  Stick it in your His whole body's got aquatic vibes about
• 55:31
  it when you see. Yeah.
• 55:33
  Yeah, so interesting about him. But the soft goods it's, it's
• 55:39
  kind of it's a kind of shell suit type fabric.
• 55:45
  You know what I mean? Yeah, Yeah.
• 55:48
  That kind of almost like light rain jacket type fabric really.
• 55:56
  You know, wires everywhere, all over.
• 55:58
  It comes with a cute little thing in the pocket.
• 56:01
  I was going to say if you open the pouch, John, yeah, it's been
• 56:05
  spoiled for me, but it's a cool little surprise in there.
• 56:08
  Yeah, it's been, I think people have posted it on the cosmic
• 56:11
  about some. As I say, it's a little family
• 56:13
  portrait of of actress family. So I don't know if I put it up
• 56:21
  to the camera there on that work, make myself big.
• 56:27
  There we go, there we go. It's very cute, isn't it?
• 56:32
  It's lovely. Yeah.
• 56:34
  Yeah, that's very cool. A little bit sad as well.
• 56:36
  Adds a little bit of sadness to the character.
• 56:38
  It adds a lot of character to him, if you know what I mean.
• 56:41
  It depends what you think. If if if Hank Char is one of the
• 56:45
  children in that, I think it's fine.
• 56:48
  If that's his wife and kids, that's quite sad.
• 56:51
  Yeah, I think it's, it's just to me, here we go.
• 56:54
  To me, he's got that because he's sort of longing.
• 56:59
  He's there's some reason he's not with his family.
• 57:02
  And that's to remind him of them.
• 57:04
  Yeah, true. True.
• 57:06
  Sad Hulk music needs to be played.
• 57:09
  Yeah, well, you've got to think you must really be missing them
• 57:13
  because looking at the size of the piece, it's equivalent of us
• 57:16
  having something that big coming around with this.
• 57:18
  I miss my family so I brought portrait with me to remind me of
• 57:21
  rather than the photograph. It's true it wouldn't fit in the
• 57:27
  wallet at least it's not framed. I mean, that would that would be
• 57:32
  that would be tough. So these these figures cosmics
• 57:36
  always comes to the Bella lore. So there's a couple of stories
• 57:38
  related to these figures. They're on the source horseman.
• 57:42
  We also did audio book style versions of them.
• 57:46
  Episode 76 for the first log entry for this wave and 77 has
• 57:50
  the second entry and they're time stamped in those episodes I
• 57:54
  think so if you want to check them out, you can go back and
• 57:59
  listen to those sections of those episodes and even episode
• 58:03
  78 has our reaction to the announcement of this wave.
• 58:06
  So you got a whole load of ox crew two there 7776 to 78.
• 58:12
  So, but Mal is going to recap us the BIOS just to just to keep us
• 58:18
  kind of somewhere in the story so.
• 58:21
  Yep, cool. So Oviblian Wanderer Agcture and
• 58:25
  his loyal mounted skate back companion Bungie patrol the
• 58:28
  wastes of Thraxson. Their travels include the
• 58:32
  dangerous stretch known as the Harrow Zone, where they hunt the
• 58:35
  hunters who prey on those who traverse the wastes.
• 58:39
  Armed with his high impact rifle, Agcture waits for the
• 58:42
  convoy convoy from Scape Haven to make their way towards his
• 58:46
  location along the Harrows. Watching from afar as a party of
• 58:51
  Thraxian Hunters prepare to ambush the convoy.
• 58:54
  Those hunters never expected to take on fire from the wiebly and
• 58:58
  sniper just as they prepared to spring their trap.
• 59:02
  Riding alongside the convoy, Agcha and Bungee raced towards
• 59:06
  Scape Haven as more and more Thraxian Hunters fall in behind
• 59:10
  them. Their mission clearly meant to
• 59:11
  stop the Rovers from reaching the settlement with COG and the
• 59:15
  resources they carry from the Ox crew.
• 59:20
  Because there's almost so, so much Rich story in Cosmic and
• 59:24
  deserves more attention. Rich, are you excited to get
• 59:29
  this guy? Can't wait.
• 59:32
  Such a cool combination. I'm really looking forward to
• 59:33
  getting hands on these two. Yeah.
• 59:35
  Yeah, definitely. I have to say overall with this
• 59:38
  wave I find them flawless in terms of action figures.
• 59:43
  Have 0 complaints. Even putting stuff together it's
• 59:47
  so fun to handle. I mean no fiddly parts at all.
• 59:52
  Really great wave of figures and toe fillies or and toughies.
• 1:00:01
  I don't know how I'm probably. Going to say it multiple ways as
• 1:00:04
  I read this. So this was based on the the
• 1:00:11
  design inspiration was David Williams costume for this.
• 1:00:14
  We actually spoke to David back in that episode 78 when it had
• 1:00:18
  been announced that they based this figure on his custom
• 1:00:22
  design, which was basically this figure on the left here with the
• 1:00:28
  the alien head on it. And I think the Horseman might
• 1:00:33
  have worked on that second head, which is the coming from the
• 1:00:39
  Sexians. Yeah, Heads.
• 1:00:44
  It's a tribute to buzz off from the universe, if you didn't
• 1:00:48
  know. That second heads a great
• 1:00:50
  addition, isn't it? To the to the figure.
• 1:00:52
  It's perfect because it's got that and they've written into
• 1:00:55
  the story that they're somewhat related to the Specsians, which
• 1:01:00
  makes a lot of sense with that bug.
• 1:01:01
  Yeah, yeah. Come on, enlarge yourself so big
• 1:01:10
  and. This is.
• 1:01:12
  Flawless. One of your favourites?
• 1:01:14
  Yes buzz Off and must Man were my first 22 figures so he is.
• 1:01:21
  He's just an absolutely flawless actually figure and so much fun
• 1:01:26
  when they opened them. Just perfect.
• 1:01:28
  The colour is a perfect paint job is amazing and he just looks
• 1:01:33
  so good. The wings go in really well to
• 1:01:36
  the back adapter. Nothing is floppy or falling
• 1:01:38
  off. Yeah, yeah, exactly as I
• 1:01:44
  expected it to be. It is, you know, it doesn't. 0
• 1:01:46
  complaints. So this is a really, really cool
• 1:01:50
  figure and I'm so glad it came out so well.
• 1:01:52
  Yeah, possibly. I'd say hi or any clear
• 1:01:55
  alongside bra fighters the the best tribute figure they've
• 1:02:01
  done. Yeah.
• 1:02:03
  I mean, I, I think so, yeah. In terms of, you know, it really
• 1:02:07
  feels like it is a version of the character, doesn't it?
• 1:02:12
  And really, really does. And I say.
• 1:02:15
  That with the new heads pack, the operative 83 runs and close
• 1:02:19
  with the original heads pack. Yes, new heads pack actually.
• 1:02:22
  Agreed. Pretty close.
• 1:02:24
  I'll Yeah, I'll agree with you on that, Rich.
• 1:02:26
  I agree. I think the new Heads pack for
• 1:02:28
  Operative 83 makes him perfect for Yeah, a tribute.
• 1:02:32
  Doesn't it make myself big again?
• 1:02:34
  There's the classics. Buzz off this guy so you can see
• 1:02:40
  them there together. Just really get the brown on the
• 1:02:49
  skin parts. Pretty much an exact match.
• 1:02:51
  I mean they must. I assume they have to.
• 1:02:54
  They did the classics versions. You think?
• 1:02:56
  You have the colour palette, right?
• 1:03:01
  Here's a cool little bio. So, yeah, well it's it's a
• 1:03:04
  little reference to David as well in there, so.
• 1:03:12
  Natives of the hive planet begone 84 the Davophila Filia a
• 1:03:18
  distant davophilia A distantly related to the more common
• 1:03:23
  sections. The Davophilia have prevented
• 1:03:26
  the same planet wide resource depletion that has played this
• 1:03:29
  played this vaccine home world as Zafar by remaining largely
• 1:03:37
  isolated with very little contact outside of their own
• 1:03:40
  planet. This isolation includes strict
• 1:03:43
  travel restrictions to Begon 84, restrictions which are enforced
• 1:03:48
  by the soldiers that guard the skies above the Hive world,
• 1:03:53
  constantly on the lookout for unwanted visitors.
• 1:03:56
  And Tofolese is one of the Davophilia guardians of Begon
• 1:04:00
  84, assigned to Zone A, the warmest part of the planet.
• 1:04:05
  And Toffolis leads those under his command with a steady hand,
• 1:04:10
  calm demeanour and warm personality that is rare amongst
• 1:04:14
  his species. Sorry for massacring now, but
• 1:04:20
  considering my favourite figures, they do give them the
• 1:04:22
  most difficult names. True and obviously the direct
• 1:04:30
  kind of not to David there, but also the warmest party lives out
• 1:04:35
  in Arizona and the zone A. So all the the Arizona Legions
• 1:04:41
  crew they now refer to as zone A.
• 1:04:43
  What do you think is? The big on 84 the the reference
• 1:04:49
  something B as in buzz off. Yeah, yeah, an 84 being the
• 1:04:54
  release date possibly for Buzz Off.
• 1:04:56
  Yeah, true, true. I don't know, that's just a
• 1:04:59
  guess. Excited for this guy, Rich.
• 1:05:05
  Yeah, very excited. John Mute.
• 1:05:08
  There was me keeping quiet. So when interrupted Miles
• 1:05:11
  reading. Yes.
• 1:05:13
  I'm really looking forward to this guy.
• 1:05:15
  He's a search. A cool figure.
• 1:05:16
  Yeah, search. Especially with a helmet on.
• 1:05:19
  The helmet his head on is 0. Yeah, Chef's case I'm I'm going
• 1:05:22
  to have a little play with him to say, but I almost don't think
• 1:05:25
  he does need messing with to fit in with mythics.
• 1:05:28
  OK, he's got quite, you know, the feet and boots are a bit
• 1:05:33
  cosmic like, but actually that could just be the character.
• 1:05:36
  Couldn't it just be the type of creature in mythics?
• 1:05:39
  So I wondered, I haven't tried it yet, but I wonder if the
• 1:05:47
  unknown One armour might be close enough that it works.
• 1:05:51
  I'll give it a little play with. Yeah, but as I say, the way the
• 1:05:58
  brown colour of the feet here, yeah, probably would still work
• 1:06:02
  in mythics. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:06:06
  Yeah, not to guys like GUI on who like are very eh particular
• 1:06:09
  about historical accuracy of the armour, but you know to us
• 1:06:13
  fantasy guys for sure. Well, for sure.
• 1:06:16
  In Famous, if GUI on Citizen goes well, I think you'll find
• 1:06:18
  the B Knights in the mediaeval period.
• 1:06:22
  Shoes like that, then there's more to worry about.
• 1:06:28
  And his weapons, also a great nod to the original figures,
• 1:06:33
  came with the kind of axe like that and also a spear that had
• 1:06:40
  similar shape or slightly shorter I think on the original.
• 1:06:45
  I think, I think the axe is what I'm going to use on I mean my
• 1:06:48
  mythics display and I've got it with the halbert or spear,
• 1:06:51
  whatever you want to call it in there.
• 1:06:54
  Something set up like you, because the minute I put that
• 1:06:57
  sexy and head, I mean again sexy and my favourite.
• 1:07:00
  So the minute I put that on him, it was just like, yeah, that's
• 1:07:02
  cool. That's I.
• 1:07:04
  Love the alien head as well though.
• 1:07:06
  Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely. Need a second one?
• 1:07:10
  Sold out everywhere? Don't.
• 1:07:13
  Want to get mad with him? Man might have a spare.
• 1:07:24
  No, I don't. Oh well, well, I'll tell you.
• 1:07:31
  Bungie, I got all the Bungie figured it all out myself.
• 1:07:35
  Look at that. Little.
• 1:07:39
  That wasn't as fiddly as you would expect.
• 1:07:43
  Yeah, I mean, I haven't cracked him open yet, but I'm guessing
• 1:07:46
  he's not as spiky either. Even though he's got the armour
• 1:07:49
  on him, he's not as spiky as the.
• 1:07:51
  No, it's more. Yeah, There's not as many of
• 1:07:55
  those spiky bits. Yeah.
• 1:07:58
  And the saddle. Yeah, the saddle kind of slots
• 1:08:01
  on to the couple of spiky bits at the back.
• 1:08:04
  Now you have to tie the strap underneath to secure the saddle
• 1:08:09
  and then the rest of the bits. Pretty easy to come on those
• 1:08:13
  bits of rope that you need to tie.
• 1:08:17
  And the bedroll slash sleeping bag, you need to fold it.
• 1:08:22
  If you fold it once lengthways and then roll it up, you get the
• 1:08:27
  right size. Otherwise it's like double the
• 1:08:31
  width that is there and then that would be too big, you know,
• 1:08:34
  for the be hanging over the edge.
• 1:08:37
  So that's the way I did it anyway, He's excellent,
• 1:08:42
  excellent figure. Perfect.
• 1:08:45
  No, no comments other than love them.
• 1:08:49
  And yeah, I again, just I've got the time to crack him open.
• 1:08:52
  I've cracked three of them open. But I said to you, didn't I?
• 1:08:55
  It feels like him actor, you know, you need a bit of time to
• 1:09:00
  sit and bit more, a bit more time to sit and take them in and
• 1:09:04
  play with them. And, you know, which is one of
• 1:09:07
  the fun things about legions for me.
• 1:09:09
  It's that sitting there and as you open them up and, you know,
• 1:09:14
  work them out and. Yeah, I basically did like one
• 1:09:20
  or two at a time and then came back to them with all the bits.
• 1:09:24
  And like each time I opened one, I put, I'd like, I put all the,
• 1:09:28
  you know, set it up the way I want to do it with him.
• 1:09:31
  It's basically if you want the saddle on, you have to put all
• 1:09:34
  the bits on or you just leave him without the saddle.
• 1:09:36
  But I think that would be a shame, yeah.
• 1:09:39
  Kind of the character as well, doesn't it?
• 1:09:42
  So yeah. Well, let's hear.
• 1:09:44
  Let's hear about the character much.
• 1:09:45
  More docile than their lowland cousins, Mountain Scape Backs
• 1:09:49
  are hearty beasts who are known for their great strength as well
• 1:09:52
  as their unwavering loyalty to the herd.
• 1:09:55
  This loyalty extends to any handlers they befriend and whom
• 1:09:58
  they allow to saddle them as mounts.
• 1:10:01
  Separated from his herd as a calf Bungee was found lost in
• 1:10:05
  the waste of Thraxson by a party of Veeblion Wanderers.
• 1:10:10
  Keeping the calf alive, the Vibeians tried to reunite the
• 1:10:13
  creature with its kind, only to discover that the herd had been
• 1:10:17
  attacked and killed by hunters. Knowing that the calf would not
• 1:10:21
  survive on its own, a Vibeian named Agcha raised the creature,
• 1:10:25
  forming an unbreakable bond with the skate back that exceeded
• 1:10:29
  even the natural tendencies of these affable beasts.
• 1:10:36
  In the middle of the after I got visions of us though the
• 1:10:42
  soundtrack from Black Beauty as they were as he's writing him
• 1:10:46
  along. You know, he talked about him
• 1:10:48
  being next to the to the the carriage.
• 1:10:52
  Is it right you know? Yeah, you get us.
• 1:11:01
  You get us struck off on YouTube if you if you sing too much of
• 1:11:04
  that. I'm not sure YouTube would
• 1:11:08
  recognise what I was singing in fairness.
• 1:11:10
  Yeah, they, they, they're very sophisticated these days.
• 1:11:15
  But yeah, probably not. There's a there's a very sad bit
• 1:11:22
  in that bio. Yeah, there.
• 1:11:24
  Is. But also then you know that he
• 1:11:27
  was saved and he's just such a cute.
• 1:11:31
  It's basically the same sculpt as this the other one.
• 1:11:36
  This get low landscape back except for a different head.
• 1:11:40
  More. And and different.
• 1:11:42
  I think lower legs or the feet are different.
• 1:11:45
  This, this is what I said, isn't it?
• 1:11:47
  In the when it was revealed, I was like, fair play to Eric.
• 1:11:52
  He's actually, and we know he thinks about it, but he's gone
• 1:11:56
  like this is a little bit of. Just.
• 1:12:01
  If you let you know, because the way he's he's, he's obviously
• 1:12:06
  they, they talk about it and be more docile, but they're all
• 1:12:09
  they're herd animals and they are obviously prey animals,
• 1:12:13
  hence why it's so heavily armoured, whereas your lowlands
• 1:12:16
  gate back are clearly predators with all their spikes and their
• 1:12:21
  big teeth. And and you know, they're so
• 1:12:24
  it's they've gone as far, Eric's gone as far as thinking about
• 1:12:28
  the type of creature. And you know, and and in this
• 1:12:33
  fictional creature that doesn't exist, it's one thing sculpting
• 1:12:36
  an animal that does exist, but then creating an animal and
• 1:12:40
  going that far in in your thing, that's just that's a the thought
• 1:12:46
  gone into it. We need the head explode sound.
• 1:12:53
  Interesting combo. Jeremy on his show put a
• 1:12:55
  Thraxian hunter on one of these guys.
• 1:12:57
  Well, you know what? I was so.
• 1:13:01
  Yeah, yeah. So they match.
• 1:13:03
  Yeah, they do match. I actually did the same just
• 1:13:06
  because my desk is so small here where I have the laptop and and
• 1:13:10
  all that stuff that I was trying to save space while I was having
• 1:13:15
  the figures up. So I did have him on him, the
• 1:13:19
  tracks in Hunter on him just to just to.
• 1:13:22
  Yeah, I. Know.
• 1:13:25
  You do. So it works really well.
• 1:13:30
  Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:13:34
  Using the camera there now. Yeah.
• 1:13:36
  So that's a yeah, they do. Same earthy tone, but not the
• 1:13:42
  same type of character. Yeah.
• 1:13:48
  Right. Shall we move on?
• 1:13:50
  You're excited for him, Rich. Pretty.
• 1:13:52
  Much so, yeah. Yeah, I've just checked figure
• 1:13:54
  and login and they're sold out so I won't be getting a second
• 1:13:57
  one yet, but I'll try and find out somewhere.
• 1:14:01
  Yeah, we get Richard the second bungee high, Laura Crane.
• 1:14:05
  So a bad guy. We're on to the bad guys now.
• 1:14:11
  Very, very, very cool. Articulate scarf.
• 1:14:15
  Look at that. Blowing in the window?
• 1:14:19
  Yeah, that's very cool. Oh.
• 1:14:22
  So you gotta. Be careful, that's so sturdy if
• 1:14:24
  he trips and snags that you could hang himself.
• 1:14:27
  Yeah, I went with the. I went with.
• 1:14:32
  I gave him that to configuration of his scarf like they do in
• 1:14:35
  the. Yeah, that's too French looking
• 1:14:38
  for me, so yeah. His guns ready to go for battle.
• 1:14:44
  Oh my God. He's fully.
• 1:14:45
  Yeah, you've fully. Yeah, he's.
• 1:14:46
  Armoured up, he's ready to take on all comers.
• 1:14:51
  Absolutely. Great, great accessories.
• 1:14:54
  I love the the mat kind of metallic, you know, paint over
• 1:14:59
  metallic parts, kind of it's kind of matte.
• 1:15:02
  The gun as well. And the shield.
• 1:15:04
  Look at the shield. Yeah, the symbol.
• 1:15:08
  Those boots are very cool as well.
• 1:15:11
  Combination. You need a second one because
• 1:15:13
  you you have to use the helm of the gas mask.
• 1:15:17
  It's absolutely brilliant. Which is the other one I went to
• 1:15:20
  little man with? I'd say a little man.
• 1:15:24
  Not too bad, to be fair. Would that helmet work on an
• 1:15:27
  unto Phillies? That's another option for.
• 1:15:30
  It's a look I want. Well, while Mal is reading the
• 1:15:33
  bio, I'll stick it on and to Philly.
• 1:15:35
  Sorry about that. It's.
• 1:15:36
  Probably a bit darker, but you'd have to perhaps lighten it up.
• 1:15:40
  But I mean, it would look very cool.
• 1:15:42
  I think painted red and black on a figure that's black with some
• 1:15:46
  sort of fake blood effect would look really cool.
• 1:15:53
  Can you tell I want a mosquito attribute soon, right?
• 1:15:59
  Anyway, once employed by the Traders Unions Empiricist
• 1:16:03
  Division, Hylocrin was part of a dual operative team sent to a
• 1:16:07
  remote section of thermos to investigate a spatial anomaly.
• 1:16:12
  This anomaly was the suspected cause of a number of Tusk
• 1:16:15
  vessels which had gone missing while on assignments in the
• 1:16:19
  area. Hylaw and his partner detected
• 1:16:22
  the problem as soon as they entered the 4th ring, but
• 1:16:25
  unfortunately for the pair of Tusks Empiricists, detection and
• 1:16:29
  understanding of the anomaly was not enough to save them from
• 1:16:32
  falling victim to it. Their vessels instruments failed
• 1:16:37
  and they crashed on a planet named Fraxen, salvaging as much
• 1:16:41
  of the Tusk issued equipment from their ship as they could,
• 1:16:44
  including a pair of hostile environment suits and a small
• 1:16:48
  arsenal of weaponry and defensive gear.
• 1:16:50
  The pair left their damaged vessel and set out into the
• 1:16:54
  harsh terrain of Thraxen. Very cool.
• 1:17:02
  Here's here's the the helmet. I didn't put up the actually
• 1:17:09
  looks all right. Doesn't the cable in?
• 1:17:12
  I like that. Slightly different, but not
• 1:17:15
  enough Different still. Gives off bug vibes, doesn't.
• 1:17:18
  It does. Doesn't look buggy.
• 1:17:20
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh hell yeah.
• 1:17:29
  That looks really cool. I I always find that, you know,
• 1:17:33
  if the colours aren't too clashing, you can get away with
• 1:17:36
  the slightly different colour on the head, you know, even with,
• 1:17:43
  even with skin tones, you know, obviously people's faces are
• 1:17:46
  slightly redder or slightly, you know, if we're talking about us
• 1:17:49
  white guys, you know, the face is slightly redder than maybe
• 1:17:52
  the body, you know, the arms or whatever.
• 1:17:57
  Whereas yeah, armour, yeah, if it's totally kind of clashing
• 1:18:04
  then that looks a bit weird, but I think that would work.
• 1:18:08
  Yeah, it got yeah look good. Oh, and she's so much better
• 1:18:13
  than I was expecting her to be. She's so, so cool.
• 1:18:18
  Yeah. So job, job, job, Brookie.
• 1:18:22
  Job Brookie yeah, so she's she's female build 2.0 scale and full
• 1:18:33
  cloth arms and legs. So you can see there you see it
• 1:18:38
  in the pictures there in the onscreen good in person.
• 1:18:42
  And I don't remember thinking anything of it when they showed
• 1:18:47
  it off, but really ought to have the trigger fingers because she
• 1:18:51
  doesn't have any weapons that have triggers.
• 1:18:54
  OK, but yeah, she'd have to steal them.
• 1:18:58
  She's she's. Very very cool.
• 1:18:59
  Really this because I haven't opened my rising Suns wave yet.
• 1:19:03
  This is my first experience of those 2.0 cloth legs and I love
• 1:19:09
  them. I they feel, which sounds a
• 1:19:12
  weird thing to say, but I mean like, you know, from a bulk.
• 1:19:16
  In her leg, yeah. Yeah, from a, from a bulk sort
• 1:19:20
  of and, and just yeah, really, really cool.
• 1:19:25
  Yeah, more, more figures with those trousers, please.
• 1:19:29
  And that's the. That's the Gadriel head.
• 1:19:33
  Yeah. And you would not, you would not
• 1:19:36
  have a clue. So the paint job is so.
• 1:19:38
  Different. I'd argue it's better than the
• 1:19:40
  original head. Yeah, it's that paint job.
• 1:19:44
  Love it with the mask on as well.
• 1:19:46
  It's the mask that came with 0 inspire as well, isn't it?
• 1:19:51
  Yeah, Works really well for it. Makes a look really sinister.
• 1:19:57
  Yeah, I think, I think Syrian is also cool, a female figure in
• 1:20:01
  cosmic. So Cosmics have some cool
• 1:20:04
  females and. You've.
• 1:20:06
  Got the heads pack as well to make more females so.
• 1:20:12
  I actually think, yeah, I think all of the female figures in
• 1:20:15
  Cosmic are really, really cool figures.
• 1:20:17
  Yeah. Excellent designs to all of
• 1:20:20
  them. Yeah, definitely.
• 1:20:22
  So. Yeah, Jabara, that's what goes.
• 1:20:28
  Jobra. Jobra.
• 1:20:29
  Yeah. It's Jabara.
• 1:20:33
  If you look on the website, it's Jabara key.
• 1:20:37
  We're all right now. It doesn't matter, right?
• 1:20:42
  Part of the dual operated team of Tusk Empiricists sent to
• 1:20:45
  investigate a spatial anomaly around the planet, Thracs and
• 1:20:48
  Jubaraki and her partner survived a crash landing on the
• 1:20:51
  strange planet. With the chance of a rescue from
• 1:20:54
  the Traders Union slim at best, the Empiricists knew that they
• 1:20:58
  would need to find a way to survive in the harsh environment
• 1:21:01
  they found themselves in. Following a homing beacon
• 1:21:05
  transmitting an old Traders Union frequency, the Empiricists
• 1:21:09
  came upon a discovery they did not expect.
• 1:21:12
  A settlement that would eventually they would eventually
• 1:21:14
  discover was named Scape Haven. Jabara and her partner
• 1:21:19
  approached the settlement, but they were immediately besieged
• 1:21:22
  on all sides as Raiders from the settlement who had been in
• 1:21:26
  hiding attacked. Bringing up their heavy Shields
• 1:21:29
  and wielding their electrobatons, the pair of
• 1:21:32
  Empiricists fought off nearly a dozen attackers.
• 1:21:35
  This display proved their worth and earned them an invitation to
• 1:21:39
  add their strength to the settlement to Scapehaven.
• 1:21:42
  With their Tusk training and equipment, the Empiricists were
• 1:21:46
  assigned to serve under Kern Ray as 2 of Scapehaven's Rovers
• 1:21:51
  team. Rovers team who scour the wastes
• 1:21:54
  of Fraxen looking for resources and taking what they need to
• 1:21:58
  survive. So we learn a little bit more
• 1:22:01
  about the about Scapehaven in that one, don't we?
• 1:22:05
  And that Kern Ray is actually possibly the leader of Scape
• 1:22:08
  Haven. Yeah, pretty cool and rich.
• 1:22:15
  You like her C. .0 Build. Yeah.
• 1:22:18
  You'll love it after it I'm. Sure, I will.
• 1:22:20
  Yes. Yeah.
• 1:22:22
  She's the one I'm least looking forward to.
• 1:22:25
  I mean, she looks really cool and I really love the paint job
• 1:22:28
  they've done on the head. Because I didn't like, you guys
• 1:22:30
  know, I did not like that head originally, but the paint job's
• 1:22:34
  great, so. Yeah, I'm sure.
• 1:22:36
  I enjoy it when I get her. No, she's very solid, stands up.
• 1:22:40
  Well, I'm just over here in the desk and very difficult to knock
• 1:22:45
  her over easily. So yeah, now this is 1 Rich is
• 1:22:52
  definitely looking forward to. Oh.
• 1:22:54
  Yes, wait, I've only seen him in the box, but the paint is the
• 1:22:59
  app is so clean, so smart. Yeah, go on, John.
• 1:23:04
  There we go. Look at that.
• 1:23:05
  Just look at. That so good.
• 1:23:07
  Yeah, I've already. Got a second on order.
• 1:23:09
  That little battle damage there, you see.
• 1:23:12
  Say ah. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:23:14
  These little things here, the little pouches, you have to kind
• 1:23:17
  of tip them on. They're a bit fiddly.
• 1:23:20
  You see here, they're kind of come.
• 1:23:24
  Yeah, it's the same purple. What's his name?
• 1:23:27
  Wasn't it? Yeah.
• 1:23:28
  Yeah, I think we've got that belt already and we with the.
• 1:23:31
  It's very good. I really like it though, but
• 1:23:32
  we've got those those little pouches with the tools in a new
• 1:23:36
  to him. Helmet works really well you
• 1:23:40
  just have to take off the the little centrepiece here that
• 1:23:44
  comes on the figure and and then clip it on.
• 1:23:49
  You need to take off the head and put this over the body kind
• 1:23:54
  of clips in you think it's more difficult than it is, but it if
• 1:23:58
  you line it up and push it, it'll go in easy.
• 1:24:01
  And then and then you put in the head and neck and neck and head
• 1:24:05
  and put the little glass piece or little plastic translucent
• 1:24:09
  piece over it. So.
• 1:24:10
  Yeah, I've got that piece on all of these, these builds because I
• 1:24:14
  think it looks really cool on them.
• 1:24:16
  The only and this is not a criticism of the figure, it's
• 1:24:19
  just the way it comes. It's like over.
• 1:24:22
  It doesn't come with that little adapter that you can put a
• 1:24:24
  regular neck peg in. Right.
• 1:24:26
  Yeah. So it could, the neck is the
• 1:24:29
  massive neck like Orvar. So if you want to to use this
• 1:24:35
  space suit with the other heads, then you have to, I mean, I
• 1:24:40
  guess you could put Orvar's head in there and done that yet.
• 1:24:46
  But yeah, you need to do some sort of adapting, either blue
• 1:24:52
  tack or something, or else some sort of 3D printed piece.
• 1:24:57
  I wouldn't be surprised if we get something for these guys in
• 1:25:01
  the future. Character.
• 1:25:04
  Pack right? Tell us about Cog now.
• 1:25:10
  Oh yeah, the Borgenox mechanic Cog has proven invaluable to the
• 1:25:18
  Ox Crew survival efforts on the planet Thraxen.
• 1:25:21
  Unfortunately for Cog, the same skills that have made him an
• 1:25:24
  important member of the Ox Crew have also made him a target for
• 1:25:28
  a hostile band of Wasteland bandits.
• 1:25:31
  Accompanying the bandits to their settlement in order to
• 1:25:34
  secure the release of the Ox Crew's captive Science Officer
• 1:25:38
  Cog's board, COG boards their transport as they head to the
• 1:25:42
  dreaded Harrow Zone, a stretch of unforgiving landscape
• 1:25:45
  separating the northern and southern parts of Thraxon.
• 1:25:49
  Surviving the journey through the Harrows is only the first
• 1:25:52
  challenge ahead of Cog. He knows that his strength will
• 1:25:55
  be tested if they're able to make it to the settlement his
• 1:25:58
  abductors have called Scape Haven.
• 1:26:00
  Cog is resigned to what he must do, to what he must to rest, to
• 1:26:05
  do what he must to rescue his fellow crew member, even if he
• 1:26:08
  has to fight every Wasteland bandit in Thraxon to do so.
• 1:26:15
  So again, cool back story there for him.
• 1:26:18
  He's one of the crew. Still got one more member of the
• 1:26:22
  crew to be revealed. Definitely the science officer.
• 1:26:27
  Communications Officer. Oh, we must have two then.
• 1:26:30
  We got two, yeah. There's we had. 3IN book 1 and
• 1:26:33
  just this guy in book 2 so we've got 2 left to go.
• 1:26:38
  Yeah, because the guy that was sending the the logs, he's the
• 1:26:41
  communications officer. We don't have them yet.
• 1:26:43
  Do we know? Yeah, that's right.
• 1:26:46
  Yeah, yeah. And he's the mechanic, so it
• 1:26:49
  comes with two set of tools and stuff like that.
• 1:26:52
  You get 2 eyepieces, 2 eye goggles, 1 is kind of glossy
• 1:26:58
  black and the other one is kind of more translucent, still kind
• 1:27:01
  of dark, but translucency you should.
• 1:27:04
  You can actually see the eyes behind it.
• 1:27:07
  Not very well, but works. And the way it works is you see
• 1:27:14
  the blue bit in between the goggles here.
• 1:27:17
  Yeah. That comes out of the head.
• 1:27:21
  There's a little on the non goggled head.
• 1:27:24
  That little blue piece just pops out and then you pop the goggles
• 1:27:28
  in. Yeah.
• 1:27:29
  So it's pretty seamless and you don't see the where it goes in
• 1:27:34
  and out because of the sculpt. So yeah, he's great.
• 1:27:40
  And then we got Traxion Hunter, last of the figures.
• 1:27:46
  So we had the Traxion Scout, the green guy previously, and we got
• 1:27:51
  this guy. Very cool figure.
• 1:27:54
  Also very buildable and great soft goods.
• 1:27:59
  Yeah. You know, I love, I love the
• 1:28:04
  tatty soft goods. Yeah.
• 1:28:08
  Work really well. You could even stain these up if
• 1:28:12
  you wanted to customise them up a bit, you know?
• 1:28:15
  Yeah, make you get some. Yeah, get it.
• 1:28:19
  Get like a wash even and just paint it on.
• 1:28:22
  Yeah. You don't even need to go like
• 1:28:24
  dying or anything like that. I don't think because I've
• 1:28:28
  spilled contrast paint on my tracksuit when I was painting
• 1:28:33
  and it didn't come off and the washing machine a number of
• 1:28:37
  times. It's fine.
• 1:28:40
  It's fine because I just wear it, you know, around the house
• 1:28:43
  and I wear it now if I'm doing a customising session.
• 1:28:47
  If I have those tracks you will put them on because otherwise it
• 1:28:51
  looks like I've had an accident so cannot wear them outside the
• 1:28:57
  house. Yes, I, I have a pair of shorts
• 1:29:00
  I can now now only wear in the house because I was, I was
• 1:29:04
  grouting my mum's shower and I was just, I didn't have, you
• 1:29:11
  know, with big grout gun things, you have a gun and you press the
• 1:29:14
  handle and it pushes it forward. Didn't have one of those hands.
• 1:29:17
  So I just squeezing it and what I didn't realise was the back
• 1:29:20
  end just popped off which went all over my shorts.
• 1:29:23
  So despite washing them, I've got this big white patch which
• 1:29:26
  looks really dodgy on the front of the shorts.
• 1:29:28
  So yeah. I think we should throw them in
• 1:29:31
  the bin, Rich, let's be honest. Well, I'm too tight to buy a new
• 1:29:34
  pair, so they're still here. I'm talking about both of us
• 1:29:39
  here. You know, actually,
• 1:29:42
  incidentally, how did painting the ceiling of the bathroom go?
• 1:29:44
  Did you get through that? I didn't know I bleached the
• 1:29:48
  ceiling. So that's all done and then I'm
• 1:29:50
  painting it this weekend. Yeah, we had like family over
• 1:29:57
  and that sort of thing. So we just run out of time a
• 1:29:59
  bit. So fair enough.
• 1:30:01
  I mean, to be honest, I've suggested looks so good now.
• 1:30:03
  Haven't put a bit of bleach and we don't need painting it.
• 1:30:05
  But I didn't go down that well, so I was still.
• 1:30:07
  Didn't fly. Yeah, right.
• 1:30:10
  My last bio of the night. And so let's go through it.
• 1:30:14
  Yeah, cool. While most Thraxians are hostile
• 1:30:18
  only when they believe there is a threat to their tribe, there
• 1:30:21
  are also those for whom violence is not simply a survival
• 1:30:24
  instinct, but rather the means towards conquest and domination.
• 1:30:29
  One particularly aggressive kind of Thraxian hunt is inhabit the
• 1:30:32
  desolate stretch of landscape separating the northern and
• 1:30:35
  southern halves of Thraxian, known as the Harrow Zone.
• 1:30:39
  Clad in armour fashion from the bones of their enemies, these
• 1:30:43
  hunters often attack travellers who choose to use the Harrows,
• 1:30:47
  especially those whom they believe they can easily
• 1:30:49
  overpower. In a worrisome turn of events,
• 1:30:53
  the tactics of these Thraxons have changed of late and attacks
• 1:30:56
  on even obviously well equipped convoys have grown at an
• 1:30:59
  alarming rate. The level of coordination and
• 1:31:02
  the planning seen in their attacks has also increased.
• 1:31:06
  Evidence that points to someone using these hunters are part of
• 1:31:09
  a larger plan. Rumours have swirled of a
• 1:31:12
  wasteland warlord who aims to rule over all of Thraxen and who
• 1:31:16
  is seemingly using the violent proclivities of the Thraxians to
• 1:31:20
  help further his goals. It is a party of these Thraxians
• 1:31:24
  who are hunting the convoy travelling from the Ox Cruise
• 1:31:27
  Camp back to Scape Haven. Setting up a trap along the
• 1:31:30
  arrow Zone. The hunters lie in wait as their
• 1:31:33
  prey makes their way towards an inevitable clash that may have
• 1:31:37
  important implications for the power structure of Fraction.
• 1:31:42
  Very cool. Very, very cool.
• 1:31:47
  Rich, is this going in your mythics, your cosmic I've?
• 1:31:50
  Got 2 so one for mythics, one for cosmic.
• 1:31:53
  You stick it in your mythics. Perfect.
• 1:31:57
  I won't be using one of these heads in mythics.
• 1:31:59
  I've got another head lined up. Oh, have you?
• 1:32:02
  Yeah, one of the new Jason Rodriguez ones with a sort of
• 1:32:07
  humanoid but snake features as well.
• 1:32:09
  I'm just trying to decide whether I do the kingly one or
• 1:32:13
  the one with the hood. I think that'll go really well
• 1:32:16
  on this body, so yeah. Cool.
• 1:32:19
  Yeah, it should be good to match.
• 1:32:22
  Let's get torn. Shouldn't be too.
• 1:32:25
  Shouldn't be too tough, right? And then the last thing we have
• 1:32:31
  here. I'm sorry Mally, you building
• 1:32:34
  this guy or just the one or? I have got a second one, but
• 1:32:40
  initially I'll just have the one and I've probably got the second
• 1:32:44
  one as parts and, you know, potential stuff because again,
• 1:32:48
  cool soft goods, some pretty cool parts.
• 1:32:52
  I think these are the first time we've got full bare snaky lip
• 1:33:01
  reptilian arms, aren't they? That's right, they are.
• 1:33:05
  Yeah, potentially didn't realise that and.
• 1:33:11
  Then we get those parts with the thingy parts, what's it called?
• 1:33:18
  Armoury parts and get a cool sort of reptilian gladiator.
• 1:33:23
  Oh yeah, and then we get the Wasteland Survival set.
• 1:33:29
  Very cool little set. Couple of crates, binoculars,
• 1:33:35
  torch, kind of a large of suppliers or Clippers, cutters.
• 1:33:44
  Yeah. Why cutters?
• 1:33:46
  Yeah. And you get tube piece and I
• 1:33:48
  don't know what that other one is.
• 1:33:51
  It's kind of a rod, metal rod. So it was an aerial.
• 1:33:54
  An aerial? Yeah, it's probably an aerial
• 1:33:56
  for the comms gear. Yeah.
• 1:33:57
  Because it's one of them's, Yeah.
• 1:34:01
  Is it Ken Ray's got an aerial stuck in the back of a backpack
• 1:34:04
  that looks like that? Oh yeah, yeah, that, yeah, we've
• 1:34:07
  got that piece before We got, we got the piece, definitely.
• 1:34:12
  But very cool to get the pieces, especially if you've got the
• 1:34:15
  onion and it's also available. Keep the diet pieces coming, I
• 1:34:18
  might have the room for them, but I love having them just in
• 1:34:21
  case. Totally, totally, totally.
• 1:34:26
  So that's Harrows on Cosmics. We have now no cosmics up for
• 1:34:29
  pre-order. So expect that to change this
• 1:34:32
  year. We get yeah, I hope we get book
• 1:34:34
  three this year for sure. At least you know through.
• 1:34:38
  But Jeremy's confirmed there will definitely be a cosmic wave
• 1:34:43
  this year. But he said not necessarily to
• 1:34:46
  expect it to be what you think it's going to be.
• 1:34:50
  So I don't, I don't know whether that means Harrow.
• 1:34:52
  Yeah #3 he's been pushed or whether they'll just go crazy
• 1:34:56
  with the characters in it. So it is Book 3.
• 1:34:58
  But yeah, bigger wave or like really radically.
• 1:35:02
  Different. Parts or something?
• 1:35:03
  Yes. Probably not an outpost.
• 1:35:06
  I think they I think they they need new parts.
• 1:35:09
  But yeah, he's sort of just dropped out.
• 1:35:11
  He's like, but it won't be what you expect.
• 1:35:12
  It's like, Oh well, you might be right.
• 1:35:14
  There because I think, I think I have a sneaking suspicion the
• 1:35:21
  warlord is going to look an awful lot like slug.
• 1:35:25
  So I just get this feeling that that's kind of what they're
• 1:35:31
  aiming for with that character, you know, same because it feels
• 1:35:36
  like the slug type of character is a bit of a, an empire
• 1:35:39
  builder, doesn't it? So that might fit with that
• 1:35:42
  their version of the huts. Yeah, the large bulky sort of
• 1:35:49
  wasteland warlord sort of look is is quite common in in sci-fi.
• 1:35:53
  Yeah, which, and I think it would be very cool if that's the
• 1:35:56
  case, which, yeah, as you say, then that does mean that
• 1:35:58
  Workbook 3 will be a lot of reuse of what we already got.
• 1:36:04
  So maybe, yeah, they're going to try and do some new parts for
• 1:36:07
  Cosby. Maybe.
• 1:36:08
  We'll see. I'm excited, whatever we get.
• 1:36:11
  Yeah, because it's really good to get another wave.
• 1:36:13
  Yeah, yeah, totally. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:36:17
  I mean, I think, you know, Horsemen are a small company, so
• 1:36:20
  it's difficult to keep all the balls in the air.
• 1:36:24
  So I wouldn't see this as, you know, cosmic on the wane or
• 1:36:28
  anything. I think it's just following
• 1:36:31
  where it goes. And yeah, maybe they don't need
• 1:36:35
  3 waves of Cosmic and Mythics going at each time.
• 1:36:38
  Yeah, maybe Cosmic can go at a slightly slower pace.
• 1:36:41
  But if the figures are this cool, keep them coming.
• 1:36:44
  Keep them coming. Yeah, this is a great wave.
• 1:36:48
  Great wave. So that's my, that's my short
• 1:36:52
  summary. Great wave.
• 1:36:53
  Yeah, get it. Absolutely fantastic.
• 1:36:55
  Yeah, I need to. A lot of these are sold out in
• 1:36:59
  retailers. So I don't know if I think St
• 1:37:03
  date is 1st of May for for this one and for the Faden and Panos.
• 1:37:08
  So I don't know if they will pop up again at retailers that are
• 1:37:11
  maybe now currently sold out. We'd see.
• 1:37:13
  But it does it does suggest that there's a lot of them are there
• 1:37:19
  isn't a lot of them out there. You know, there isn't a huge
• 1:37:22
  overstock of them. So yeah, mightn't have character
• 1:37:26
  packs for this wave, you know, because there won't be any any.
• 1:37:30
  Left, yeah, I think, I think if people have missed out on this
• 1:37:33
  whole wave, get it however you can now, because it's going to
• 1:37:38
  be in short supply compared to everything else and the prices
• 1:37:41
  will rocket actually. So get it now.
• 1:37:44
  All right guys, thanks a million for this week again.
• 1:37:47
  Umm yes, we had a little down week last week so came back on a
• 1:37:51
  bang with the loads of stuff this week.
• 1:37:54
  You know you got it, you got a in stock sale preview, you got
• 1:37:58
  some news and you got a wave review.
• 1:38:00
  So can't say better than that.
