• 0:02
  My wallet is sobbing. I can hear it.
• 0:04
  I can hear it in the hall now. It is breaking down crying.
• 0:08
  It turns out that Attila the arrogant so and so he's got a
• 0:11
  fake hammer. Oh, a fake?
• 0:14
  Yeah. Whoa.
• 0:15
  As I say, Dick. Welcome to episode 108 of the
• 0:21
  Allegiance Podcast. And this week we're going to do
• 0:25
  something that's not related to the Dragon as per SE, but is in
• 0:30
  the same toy line as the Dragon. It's the Neck Anonymous wave
• 0:34
  because Rich has finally received his the retailer St.
• 0:38
  date over here in Europe finally hit and Rich got some of his
• 0:43
  figures. Yeah, I was going to say he's
• 0:45
  received some of his order as a still heard of Colobus waiting
• 0:50
  to come to me at some point. They have a little delay in the
• 0:53
  horses. The horses bishops delayed as
• 0:55
  well. Yeah, and then the big fella,
• 0:57
  Sir Greg is also. OK.
• 0:58
  So the big ones, I guess they must be coming in a like
• 1:02
  separate shipment or something, I don't know.
• 1:03
  Yeah, I think they were done with by their second factory,
• 1:05
  weren't they? So I think that's.
• 1:07
  I think they have, they have two factories or I don't know if
• 1:10
  they have two, but they have a separate factory for the
• 1:14
  oversized figures. Yeah, yeah, that's right.
• 1:18
  And Mal, how are you? I'm good, yeah.
• 1:23
  Fresh out for episode last week, we have to put up a rich again
• 1:26
  this week we had. For the the the viewers and the
• 1:32
  listeners, I was watching these jokers in To be Mr. Gerrard last
• 1:37
  week and it got like 30 seconds in and I was just getting
• 1:40
  slagged off. I was like, come on.
• 1:42
  It's like messaging. I'm going like, what the hell.
• 1:46
  It's like this week I asked you boys if you went for the intro
• 1:49
  and you said no. And last week I couldn't really
• 1:51
  ask Jeremy, so I just had to go something to come off the top of
• 1:54
  my head. And if all else fails, it's slag
• 1:56
  rich. That's that's how it works by.
• 1:58
  The jokes, That's fine. John's got it in his head that
• 2:01
  we're here to do anything other than like, make stupid comments
• 2:05
  and. Don't worry, I'll get my own
• 2:08
  back on John at Legions con when he's fast asleep on just like
• 2:11
  opening boxes next to his ear, a wrinkle of a cosmic legion
• 2:15
  coming out and. Hopefully be so comatose that it
• 2:20
  won't matter for chat in absentee.
• 2:22
  Even so rich you it's like ice cold shower.
• 2:31
  No, no, no, we need to we'll actually we'll leave this going.
• 2:34
  We must we must be getting. I guess maybe they were after
• 2:37
  the dragon stuff or maybe between now and the end we'll
• 2:42
  get also confirmation of the whole legions gun thing and the
• 2:47
  hotel discount code for the hotel and all that kind of stuff
• 2:51
  for the full. Stretch goal. 4. 1000 stretch
• 2:55
  goal. What if it doesn't reach you get
• 2:58
  just to pay full price for hotel it's just.
• 3:01
  Yeah, you get your room thrown in as well with the dragon.
• 3:06
  And also I think thanks to all the extra people that watched
• 3:09
  last week who had much more reviews than normal on YouTube
• 3:13
  over 1200 as at this point in time.
• 3:16
  And we also had more audio listeners than normal.
• 3:20
  So thanks, Jeremy for boosting us up and thanks to bait here, I
• 3:24
  think for for boosting us up mostly probably.
• 3:27
  I was, I was telling anyone that would listen at home, at work,
• 3:31
  anybody, that I'm now an Internet sensation.
• 3:34
  And you worked on the show. Yeah, and I wasn't on the show.
• 3:36
  Do you know what? I mean my voice is in the intro.
• 3:41
  I think that's why we got more listeners, to be honest with
• 3:43
  you. So yeah, if.
• 3:47
  You've been on YouTube. Yeah, to you.
• 3:50
  So if if if you did stick around from last week to this week,
• 3:54
  this is the normal shot you got to put up with.
• 3:56
  So you know, last week we're on our best behavior because of
• 4:01
  Jeremy and, you know, being nice to him and he's given us some
• 4:04
  great info about the dragon and behind the scenes stuff.
• 4:07
  So, you know, we can't be a holes.
• 4:10
  But no, it's just the three of us.
• 4:12
  We can go back to that again. My wife, it was like, if I'm
• 4:15
  going to miss one, that's probably a good one to miss
• 4:17
  because you guys are just sensible, sensible questions.
• 4:20
  Let Jeremy talk. I'd have been trying to be funny
• 4:23
  if you disrupted the bear. Yeah, it's like.
• 4:26
  But it is always the tricky one when you have like an interview,
• 4:29
  it's, it's a bit different when you have like a couple of
• 4:31
  guests, like people from the community, that's one thing.
• 4:34
  But when you have an interview with someone from the studio or
• 4:37
  you're trying to get specific information or, you know, let
• 4:40
  them talk when there is three of us on, sometimes it's like,
• 4:43
  well, one of us has to ask the questions and the other two kind
• 4:47
  of don't want to interrupt the other guy, the the interviewee.
• 4:50
  So, so it's very tricky to get the balance there.
• 4:54
  And yeah, maybe it wasn't, it wasn't a big deal.
• 4:58
  That was only me and Mal for once, Rich.
• 5:01
  But you're back to rescue us this week.
• 5:02
  So that's the main point. Shouldn't mention backs.
• 5:05
  I was going to say yeah. I'm back despite my back's best
• 5:08
  effort, my back is not good at the moment.
• 5:11
  But you keep going to this giant dude that stamps all over your
• 5:14
  back and give him a miss, Yeah. Lovely 6 foot 6 Adam.
• 5:18
  He's a lovely guy, we have a lovely chat, but he inflicts
• 5:21
  some serious pain on me. Yeah, and we will talk about the
• 5:27
  England, Wales rugby. Oh Jesus.
• 5:29
  Or the football. Can we just skip sport?
• 5:31
  Pretend it didn't happen this last weekend.
• 5:34
  Actually saw today that Ireland and football, which I'm not
• 5:38
  really that into Ireland football, I mean you know, I'll
• 5:40
  watch it occasionally, but they're playing Luxembourg in a
• 5:45
  friendly in June, just announced and it's on here in Luxembourg.
• 5:50
  So I can go to bring my kids to it or at least Ben wants to go.
• 5:54
  He's been begging me to bring him to a football match.
• 5:57
  So you're going to get him a Luxembourg kit?
• 5:59
  No Ireland, Oh. John He's born and bred in
• 6:02
  Luxembourg. I but they're.
• 6:05
  I mean, they're not good, they're terrible, but still.
• 6:08
  I mean, Ireland aren't much better these days, no, Yeah.
• 6:13
  You're probably better off sporting Ireland and rugby and
• 6:16
  Luxembourg. I don't know, find an English,
• 6:21
  an English relation to get to get up, someone to support that
• 6:24
  might actually win something. Or Germany.
• 6:26
  Germany are just there, of course they win stuff.
• 6:28
  Yeah, we don't have any German relations, so doesn't really
• 6:33
  make sense. Actually.
• 6:35
  When I came over here first, the World Cup was on, I think it was
• 6:38
  2006 World Cup maybe, and I went to a bar to watch a game with a
• 6:43
  couple of English guys I worked with and it was full of
• 6:47
  Luxembourgish people's sport in England.
• 6:49
  Absolutely, Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was talking to a few of
• 6:52
  them and I was like, you know, do you have an English parent or
• 6:54
  something? No, no, no, just loving.
• 6:56
  It was kind of a little bit like, I don't like Germany, so
• 7:00
  I'm supporting England. You know, there was two camps.
• 7:03
  There's obviously a camp that supports Germany as well.
• 7:05
  There. There is people here that like
• 7:06
  followed by Munchen and all that kind of stuff and British
• 7:10
  Dortmund and all that kind of stuff.
• 7:12
  So they probably support Germany out, you know, outside of
• 7:16
  Luxembourg, you know, they probably support Luxembourg
• 7:18
  first, but Luxembourg's never in the big tournaments, so you got
• 7:22
  to pick a second. Team Many, many years ago I was
• 7:26
  travelling up to to Wales and the Six Nations are on or
• 7:30
  probably the Five Nations might even be in those days and it was
• 7:34
  do you know what I mean? When I played rugby at school,
• 7:40
  it's still 4 points for a try, that's how old I am.
• 7:44
  Still amateur? Yeah, basically.
• 7:48
  But anyway, so stopped off in a little pub in Hereford on the
• 7:51
  way up just to grab a bite to eat for lunch and they had the
• 7:54
  Wales, France game on. And I lasted about 5 minutes in
• 7:57
  the pub. And the amount of anti Welsh
• 7:59
  sentiment that was going on there.
• 8:00
  The entire pub, Paul the Englishman were all supporting
• 8:03
  France. Wow, going for Wales, like
• 8:05
  everything, just like yeah, I'm gone or I'm going to start a
• 8:08
  fight here. I need to leave.
• 8:11
  It's incredible. I actually found I used to go to
• 8:14
  the rugby when I lived in Dublin and I found that the Wales
• 8:17
  Ireland rivalry was much bigger than the Wales England among the
• 8:20
  supporters, the English. And I think that maybe the
• 8:25
  English rugby supporters that travel over to Ireland, for
• 8:28
  example, the travelling sport, I think they're more posh blokes,
• 8:32
  you know, so they're just over for a bit of crack and they're
• 8:35
  not really, you know, they're they're lovers, not fighters.
• 8:39
  So they were having just great crack.
• 8:41
  There was I think the Welsh, it's a more working class game
• 8:44
  rugby. And so the diehards are coming
• 8:47
  over and they want, you know, they want their team to win.
• 8:50
  So there was no big deal in there, but there was just a bit
• 8:52
  more needle in it, you know, there was a bit of slagging and
• 8:55
  a bit of first the English was way more friendly.
• 8:58
  Now football on the other hand, they they ripped up the seats
• 9:05
  once when they come over here to cancel the game 95I.
• 9:09
  Remember going to watch a Wales Scotland football game in
• 9:12
  Cardiff and went along with an English friend of mine and
• 9:15
  before we got to the stadium I said to him was like look
• 9:17
  there's going to be a lot of anti English chanting and that
• 9:20
  sort of stuff. And he's like well based Wales
• 9:21
  Scotland, they'll be having to go to each other like no they
• 9:23
  won't. And we got in and it was just 90
• 9:26
  minutes of anti English chanting from both sets of supporters.
• 9:29
  So I'm not sure anyone was even watching the game.
• 9:32
  It was just like full of. I mean, if I was English there,
• 9:35
  just take the compliments like you guys.
• 9:37
  He cares so much about me. You don't care about each other.
• 9:40
  Wales went four nil, you know, it was a cracking result but
• 9:43
  yeah, people which were watching.
• 9:45
  Right now that we've lost all our listeners and viewers, we
• 9:48
  can get on to the to the main part of the show.
• 9:52
  So rich. As he said, he doesn't have the
• 9:54
  big figs, but that's OK. Myself and Malcolm fill in and
• 9:59
  1st we should get to Dragon update.
• 10:04
  So the first update here Mal, was that we get Sir Bengar
• 10:09
  unlocked immediately at 2000 units.
• 10:13
  So I don't know, I'm not taking any credit here, but I was
• 10:17
  begging Jeremy for the soft goods like really badly, like
• 10:20
  kind of desperation style. I'm sure you're embarrassed me
• 10:23
  when you listen back, Rich, if you got that far in the show.
• 10:28
  No, no, it's. Still a stretch goal though,
• 10:30
  aren't they? So it's just but.
• 10:32
  It's now, it's now 2500 instead of 3000.
• 10:36
  So yes, that's already and we have a now and they now have a
• 10:41
  new mystery goal at 4000. So maybe they're thinking with
• 10:48
  the way the progress is going to be like, well, we might get to
• 10:51
  4000. So they're probably beavering
• 10:55
  away finalizing whatever that might be, and we'll probably
• 10:59
  only reveal it if they get there.
• 11:03
  I don't influence the Four Horsemen, but if the mystery
• 11:06
  turns out to be a barbarian on fire, I might just back the
• 11:08
  dragon anyway. So there he is.
• 11:13
  There's a beautiful picture from the website, and here is the
• 11:17
  current state of play as we record this on Tuesday of this
• 11:19
  week. I expect the dragon probably to
• 11:22
  be funded by the time you listen to this on the day comes out on
• 11:26
  Friday and we are now fully funded on the flames.
• 11:34
  So fiery breath is going to get made if the dragon gets made
• 11:38
  which we can assume it will. And Fiery breath is over the
• 11:42
  1000 needed, but still has to bid to go to get to the 1250 to
• 11:51
  unlock all the extra accessories and pieces that come with the
• 11:56
  flaming night. But the flaming nights on
• 11:59
  Lucknow as well, the kind of base figure for that and be it
• 12:05
  here is at 1815 units. So what's that 185 to go and
• 12:16
  91%. So that's pretty good.
• 12:20
  And it's on a day 11 of 30. So I think at that progress, I
• 12:27
  mean obviously it's not going to be steady the whole way through.
• 12:30
  I mean there was a jump from yesterday to today because of
• 12:34
  the news we just talked about, but that looks good.
• 12:38
  And then the wings is 82% at 817 and they need the same 1000 to
• 12:47
  unlock and 12150 to get to the stretch goal, which is the extra
• 12:56
  bits for the skeleton, the burn skeleton, the come with that.
• 13:04
  Yeah, no, it's the zombie with the the wings, isn't it?
• 13:07
  Oh, is it zombie with doings? OK.
• 13:09
  Oh, Ashton Skeleton is 3000 with bait here.
• 13:13
  Yeah, right. So yeah, he could.
• 13:16
  He came down as well. He was I guess 3500 previously.
• 13:20
  So, yeah, looking good, looking good.
• 13:24
  Could be could be a good bit of value here.
• 13:27
  And even more importantly for us, the exchange rate is going
• 13:34
  down, down down South. Euro and dollar are going up
• 13:38
  against the our euro and British pound are going up against the
• 13:42
  dollar. So if we can kind of sit tight
• 13:45
  on that for a few days and see where that takes us, that could
• 13:49
  be good, no? I may have jumped already.
• 13:56
  Yeah, we, I mean we should, of course.
• 13:58
  Enough. I'll get a second one.
• 14:00
  We. We should of course, be going
• 14:02
  in, you know, to, to get this over the line, but at the same
• 14:06
  time, you know, needs most in terms of the finances and cash
• 14:12
  flows. And yeah, my wife did tell me
• 14:16
  she had a dream about the dragon the other night.
• 14:18
  So I think we're getting it. I think it sounds positive.
• 14:22
  Yeah, it sounds that sounds positive.
• 14:24
  It wasn't a bad dream. So yeah, we might even stretch
• 14:27
  all the way to epic wings because fiery breath is the
• 14:30
  definite no matter what. If I'm getting the dragon, I'm
• 14:33
  getting the bolt. So yeah.
• 14:37
  I mean, surprised I see how many people from the UK have on the
• 14:39
  UK group there's. Been a few.
• 14:42
  I've said yeah, I've gone for it sort of thing and it's.
• 14:44
  Like, I think it's just such a murky piece.
• 14:46
  And people like Dragons. I mean, Game of Thrones is
• 14:49
  pretty popular. Dungeons and Dragons is very
• 14:53
  popular. It's also the type of thing that
• 14:57
  can fit in at any scale, you know.
• 15:00
  Yeah, and it could be a set just a piece on its own as well,
• 15:04
  can't it? For some people, you know, who
• 15:06
  may sell off the figures and just get the dragon.
• 15:09
  I think the the big thing is getting it outside of the
• 15:13
  Legions community, isn't it? Yeah, I don't know how they do
• 15:18
  that and it's I've seen a few. Maybe maybe go on a few more
• 15:22
  shows like ours but outside of the lead like Gen. more general
• 15:27
  toy shows if you can get on to that I.
• 15:31
  Haven't seen Robo show for a couple of weeks but I presume
• 15:33
  he's talked about it. He's talked about it, but if
• 15:35
  they had, if he had someone from the Four Horsemen on, maybe that
• 15:38
  would be even better. I don't think he's talked about
• 15:40
  it since it's gone live. I see.
• 15:42
  Is he not OK? No, no.
• 15:45
  Not sure Bill from dorkers doing great updates, Billy Beige is
• 15:50
  doing great updates and Curtis is on every live stream going
• 15:56
  about it. 1-6 shooter Trevor and their legions lounge was talking
• 16:03
  about it last night. So there's plenty of coverage.
• 16:08
  There's plenty of coverage we. Need a celeb?
• 16:12
  We need somebody who'd it's been the closet Legions fan for years
• 16:16
  and suddenly like put it on their Instagram or something
• 16:19
  like that. So they're 2,000,000 followers.
• 16:21
  One of the big yeah, one of the big Warhammer Youtubers, Henry
• 16:25
  Cavill, put it on his Instagram. He's a Warhammer guy.
• 16:28
  No, he's a Space Marine guy, isn't he?
• 16:31
  Or. He is, but I think he's just,
• 16:33
  he's just a geek, full stop. So.
• 16:34
  Yeah, he does collect fantasy as well as well.
• 16:39
  Yeah, OK. Of course it would be great, but
• 16:44
  it's easier said than done. But it could just snowball and I
• 16:50
  expect once it does go over the 2000, there might be another
• 16:53
  little run of people. And so we shall see.
• 16:58
  We shall see. It's all very exciting.
• 17:01
  It's all very exciting. And Rich is not involved, kind
• 17:05
  of. I'm, I'm not, I, I, I would love
• 17:07
  to, to get it by just another display space.
• 17:10
  There's just no room, you know? I've had to get rid of umm,
• 17:14
  masterpiece combiner Transformers before now because
• 17:17
  of no space. The Galactus has lab and he's
• 17:20
  more of my favorite Marvel characters because of no space.
• 17:22
  I just I just can't fit it in anyway.
• 17:25
  Now been doing this podcast for a while with you and I still
• 17:29
  expect on the last day to go. Yeah, sorry guys, I caved.
• 17:34
  I'll figure it out in two years time.
• 17:39
  No, no. No, it's, it's a sad note, but I
• 17:43
  will, you know, I'll visit Mal's.
• 17:45
  I'll go up to Mal and just give his dragon a big hug.
• 17:47
  Well. I'm contemplating.
• 17:49
  I keep staring at my coffee table being like.
• 17:51
  I cut the legs off and work out how to put a cover over it.
• 17:57
  That might be where it gets. Displayed.
• 18:01
  That's sweet. Yeah.
• 18:03
  Maybe I'll drive over with my dragon.
• 18:05
  We can have a little battle, just find a little green area
• 18:12
  somewhere outside your house, a little park or something and
• 18:16
  just battle away. Hello God, now this is all some
• 18:23
  Warlock and you're listening to the Euro Ages podcast in it.
• 18:27
  Right, on to Necronominus wave, the Necronominus wave.
• 18:32
  So we're going to just talk a little bit about in hand
• 18:35
  impressions. I used for the purposes of the
• 18:39
  stream, I used some pictures from the website because I
• 18:43
  didn't get my stuff together to get pictures of my own figures.
• 18:50
  So we'll be perfectly fine with these.
• 18:55
  These are, I mean they look like the prototypes figures, so they
• 19:01
  look exactly like the figures that you see on the website.
• 19:04
  So no misleading stuff here. The first one is Sir Gideon, so
• 19:11
  initial impression to him now. Fantastic.
• 19:16
  It's funny because seeing a lot of people go on about Sir Sir
• 19:20
  Alderick and actual actually I'm like what?
• 19:24
  Because to me, Sir Gideon puts him in the shade in terms of the
• 19:29
  soft goods, the armour, everything about him was just
• 19:35
  awesome. Another one.
• 19:38
  Another one with the head sculpt that is just up there.
• 19:42
  I've got the head of the armless head sculpt on him.
• 19:47
  Oh yes. This is beautiful.
• 19:50
  That's the one. Yeah, that's basically how I've.
• 19:51
  Got mine displayed except his swords in the other hand and his
• 19:54
  Shields in the other hand. But otherwise, that's right,
• 19:57
  I've gotten displayed. You don't want them to be lefty,
• 20:01
  no. I just, I don't know.
• 20:04
  Yeah, Perhaps that I hadn't even thought.
• 20:06
  About it low CT, Well it could be to do with the big polder and
• 20:09
  the small polder in there as well.
• 20:10
  Yeah. How do you kind of?
• 20:12
  Imagine the most armored side would be a shield side, but
• 20:17
  yeah, people, yeah, I haven't done that.
• 20:21
  I haven't done as the best night figure we've got so far.
• 20:24
  Yeah, yeah, I think he is. He's just blew me away with the
• 20:30
  combination of the armor and the soft goods and how the soft
• 20:34
  goods face and go around. That little elasticated thing
• 20:38
  around the torso looks great. Absolutely perfect figure.
• 20:44
  You rich. I love him, absolutely love him.
• 20:48
  I've got mine displayed with the helmet, but I'm 100% intend
• 20:52
  using that unhelmeted head on a different figure.
• 20:55
  It won't be on a shelf anywhere near Gideon, but it'll be it's
• 20:57
  such a good head sculpt that it's I've got to use it again.
• 21:00
  Well, I bought a second one, having seen him now in person to
• 21:04
  use the head sculpt in Cosmic, although I'm sure we'll get it
• 21:08
  done somehow in Cosmic. Yeah.
• 21:10
  And yeah, various part of the parts for other things.
• 21:17
  Yeah, it's all humans in space. Keep Cosmium human free.
• 21:21
  You know the hashtag, everybody. You know what now?
• 21:26
  They know it now, but it's a sculpting on this one.
• 21:28
  It's like we all saw the pauldron, how cool the pauldron
• 21:31
  was, but then the the elbows, the elbow arm has got like
• 21:33
  eagle, you know, ether on sculpted on it and that sort of
• 21:36
  stuff, little stuff that the horsemen just didn't need to do,
• 21:39
  but just really elevates. It's that next level.
• 21:41
  Is it? It's a piece of art.
• 21:42
  Isn't it's not just a figure anymore.
• 21:44
  It's just a piece of art. Yeah, the and the depth to the
• 21:48
  paint is really good. The loads of depth on that gold,
• 21:53
  which isn't there in some of the other figures that I wouldn't
• 21:56
  mention for sure, but on him it's they've gone all out there
• 22:01
  with that. And I also like the the belt and
• 22:07
  it's really fantastic and how you use it with the sword, how
• 22:12
  you loop the sword or what's the thing, the scabbard that the
• 22:17
  sword goes into, you loop it into the belt here with that
• 22:21
  little loop at the top. Yeah, I found to my cost earlier
• 22:26
  that you don't try and push that through the the loopholes on the
• 22:29
  belt because they tear off the belt.
• 22:31
  Did. You.
• 22:33
  Absolute they put back on damage.
• 22:35
  No, they got back on fine. It's just they've just pieces
• 22:38
  glued in sort of things. You just pop it.
• 22:39
  OK, It's fine. But how good is that scabbard
• 22:41
  though? Brilliant.
• 22:43
  Yeah, it's like next level. It's not just like a basic
• 22:45
  plastic piece. It's like just a really cool
• 22:48
  sculpted the textures, everything is, you know, for one
• 22:52
  of those famous swords in mythos to have that sort of scabbard
• 22:55
  sheath, whatever you call it with it is incredible.
• 22:58
  Yeah. Yeah, it almost feels like
• 23:02
  leather, doesn't it? It does and it's a little
• 23:06
  touches, I mean with all the figures in this set, but the the
• 23:09
  blue loincloth to just break up the white soft goods again,
• 23:13
  another company might not have done that, but it just it just
• 23:16
  gives it that little bit of oomph sort of thing and just
• 23:19
  draws the eye a little bit more. So I love that as well.
• 23:22
  Yeah. And then you've got the, the
• 23:23
  blue on the pauldron here, the blue kind of eye almost, yeah,
• 23:29
  Yeah, so and that pauldron is amazing.
• 23:33
  I I guess they might reuse it on ether on if they do ether on
• 23:38
  when they do ether on too. Possibly.
• 23:41
  Although it would it be a bit egotistical a.
• 23:44
  Little bit a little bit narcissistic on his behalf.
• 23:46
  It's like, yeah, look, I've got my own face on a pauldron.
• 23:48
  There we go. Although Speaking of somebody
• 23:50
  who puts my own face on a T-shirt.
• 23:52
  Yeah, wouldn't it be the first in in, in the in the fandom or
• 23:58
  in the line to have themselves? Suddenly enough, as we've been
• 24:03
  talking, Gwendolyn, who stood next to Gideon, has just thrown
• 24:06
  herself over. Actually, talk about me.
• 24:09
  Talk about me, yeah. Jealous, pure jealousy.
• 24:13
  That's the main reason I got rid of Gwendolyn, just because she
• 24:16
  wasn't stepped no matter what I did.
• 24:17
  And I was like, Oh yeah, you're gone enough.
• 24:19
  She hasn't fallen over for ages. Must be warming up in the UK,
• 24:26
  yeah? There's been a few wobbles we.
• 24:30
  Went to have 20° on Thursday. Yeah.
• 24:32
  Oh wow, yeah, it's freezing here at the moment.
• 24:36
  Jeez. So now we kind of got out of the
• 24:39
  winter and we've gone back into it again for a while.
• 24:41
  Yeah, we've also bitterly cold nights, like minuses overnight,
• 24:44
  which is, you know, not that common here.
• 24:46
  And then the other one suddenly jumping up to 20 during the day.
• 24:52
  Right, and Bishop then? Bishop is perfect.
• 25:01
  I love him. I think it's my favorite horse
• 25:04
  so far. He's I think they've just ironed
• 25:09
  out all the kinks in the previous horses and Bishop is
• 25:13
  the result of that. It's just the small, tiny things
• 25:17
  like how the little stirrups and things go into the holes just
• 25:23
  they're seamless now. There's no head on my belly As
• 25:27
  for example, those would pop out fairly regularly.
• 25:30
  The little bed roll thing at the back that works fine, the armor
• 25:35
  over the face and the armor on the neck that all just pops in
• 25:39
  nicely works really well. And then of course, the soft
• 25:42
  goods are incredible. Really, really well done and
• 25:46
  they look great and a perfect match for Gideon.
• 25:49
  So I don't know now. I must admit I've not opened
• 25:55
  him. He's gone straight in the
• 25:57
  cupboard in his box, just because I haven't got the space
• 26:01
  for the horses other than the four horsemen and with their
• 26:04
  horses, so all my horses are in boxes still.
• 26:10
  But yeah, from what I did see of him, yeah, like you say, he
• 26:13
  looks fantastic, that white. Paint.
• 26:16
  Look at that picture, there's fantastic.
• 26:20
  The jousting spear. I know it's probably accurate,
• 26:25
  but I'd like if it had a pointy thing as well as the kind of
• 26:32
  more blunt looking thing this is.
• 26:36
  Just a normal end, just a blunted 1.
• 26:38
  Is it John? Yeah, this thing.
• 26:40
  Oh yeah, yeah, you get a bit of damage to that cat Claws or stab
• 26:45
  it into you. Yeah, but like if if they had a
• 26:48
  spirit so it comes off, but if they had a spear attachment
• 26:53
  would would maybe look even better.
• 26:57
  Yeah, a battle attachment as opposed to a jousting attachment
• 27:00
  sort. Of yeah, and there is a there is
• 27:03
  a kind of a Sperry spiky piece with one of the other figures,
• 27:05
  but doesn't fit. Oh John, you know where it is.
• 27:10
  Spears don't hold skeletons down so you probably thinking there's
• 27:13
  no point. So they need like a kind of a
• 27:17
  forked thing. Yeah, exactly.
• 27:19
  You need to fork things, hold them down.
• 27:20
  I. Don't know if he's jousting with
• 27:24
  it, or maybe he is, but I don't know if he's jousting with
• 27:26
  skeletons or if it's just for doing a bit of mess and
• 27:32
  tournament stuff. I don't know well.
• 27:36
  One of my economists will be a skeleton in have a skeleton
• 27:39
  night on him. So yeah, I guess I have a little
• 27:41
  joust. Nice, right?
• 27:48
  Nick Anonymous, the big man, how did we find him?
• 27:54
  He's not the easiest figure to deal with, as a lot of these big
• 27:59
  ones like that are. I actually generally found I
• 28:04
  was. I was going to say it's more
• 28:07
  surprisingly easy to put together than I thought it was
• 28:09
  going to be. The one bit I had a problem with
• 28:12
  there was one of his wings, the bit that clips in that just
• 28:17
  kept. Every time I moved him and tried
• 28:20
  to adjust him I'd catch that and it would come out.
• 28:25
  But generally I actually found him easier to put together than
• 28:29
  I thought. Really such an impressive
• 28:32
  looking figure though as well once he's.
• 28:34
  Altered the soft goods you you didn't have too much problem
• 28:37
  with. No, no, As I say, I was
• 28:39
  expecting to really struggle, maybe plugging it back in.
• 28:47
  The second one back in was a bit more tricky, but no, generally
• 28:52
  it was all it was all right, I did OK.
• 28:56
  The new Ridge. I haven't got soft goods in yet
• 28:58
  because only opened him like a two hours ago sort of thing.
• 29:02
  But it's good that malice saying they're not too bad because they
• 29:04
  look quite daunting when you look at them.
• 29:05
  You're like, holy, Yeah, so and so.
• 29:08
  Yeah, I left mine for a couple of days before I opened him, but
• 29:11
  I didn't mess with the soft goods until a couple of days
• 29:15
  later. Well, I love the fact in the Oh,
• 29:19
  sorry Mel, you go. Well, I was going to say,
• 29:21
  initially when looking at him, I didn't realize that those long
• 29:24
  gold bits unplug. So I was like, how on earth do
• 29:28
  you put the soft goods on? And then when it rested, they
• 29:30
  unplugged. It was like, oh right, like
• 29:32
  that. Yeah, that was my exact
• 29:36
  reflection as well. Just ringed rang a bell straight
• 29:39
  away when you said that. I was like, yeah, I was looking
• 29:40
  forward to plug in soft goods and then I just pulled The thing
• 29:44
  is like, oh, there and feet not attached in the package.
• 29:50
  That was weird. Yeah, that's what I was about to
• 29:52
  say. I I.
• 29:53
  Was looking at him go Oh no, I don't have a QC issue.
• 29:56
  Oh no, they're there. What's going on here?
• 29:59
  It just shows a big head dresses, isn't it that you can't
• 30:02
  fit that up the figure with feet in the box?
• 30:04
  Just like, no, she's too big. So big, his head is so big, his
• 30:08
  ego is so big that to lop his feet off.
• 30:13
  And my only complaint about this guy is that the silver is just a
• 30:21
  flat, plain silver. No weathering on it lacks a bit
• 30:25
  of depth for me. When you compare it to Gideon,
• 30:27
  for example. Now I know there's so much more
• 30:30
  detail on the rest of the figure that it's a it's a nitpick, but
• 30:36
  if you if there was anywhere to improve him, it would be that
• 30:41
  that's easily done. Maybe for someone like me that
• 30:43
  customizes, although it probably won't customize my Necrominus if
• 30:49
  if I just have the one. But yeah, that's the only thing.
• 30:55
  But I understand why they did it because it doesn't really take
• 30:58
  away from the chef presence. You can't notice it there.
• 31:01
  This is really when you have it up close and you're you're
• 31:04
  examining it and the God raiser, his weapon, this massive side,
• 31:12
  so good. Bonkers.
• 31:14
  Yeah. I love it so much.
• 31:15
  I know they talked about the fact that it was a mini
• 31:17
  necronomus holding a side and we saw pictures of it, but until
• 31:21
  you have it in hand and actually study the detail it's just
• 31:24
  insane. Yeah, and even that, that extra
• 31:28
  bit of stuff around the where the blade attaches to the to the
• 31:33
  handle, like there's so much scope detail there and
• 31:36
  everything. And yeah, that's just
• 31:41
  incredible. Amazing figure.
• 31:44
  Yeah, amazing figure, amazing picture there from Trevor, from
• 31:48
  the website. There's been a bunch of amazing
• 31:50
  pictures. My initial plan was to get some
• 31:54
  more pictures from the community for this and I just ran out of
• 31:59
  time. I didn't.
• 32:01
  I had too many other things on, SO I thought it was simple, just
• 32:05
  keep it simple. And then I was like, maybe have
• 32:10
  to ask people or let them know. I was like, OK, I get the
• 32:14
  official photography and we'll go from there.
• 32:19
  So what little insert did you guys get below your crown?
• 32:23
  Yes, interesting. I got the what what did you get
• 32:27
  mall. Sorry because I've forgotten it.
• 32:30
  Was did I think it was the, not the.
• 32:35
  Other one for me. Not the.
• 32:40
  Think yeah, I got the yeah, I got the head, skeleton head.
• 32:43
  That's what I got. Yeah, I got, I got the teeth.
• 32:45
  So we didn't get the full set. We didn't get the eyeball.
• 32:47
  No, I thought we were going. We were.
• 32:49
  I was hoping I get the eye one but no the teeth.
• 32:52
  I have a 2 pack here that I'm probably going to sell.
• 32:55
  Maybe I can't open it though. No, don't open that, no.
• 32:59
  No, I've got I've got an extra 1 like I'm in an hour because I,
• 33:03
  you know, I got cocked up how to get the because I wanted the two
• 33:07
  pack and oh. Yeah, and instead you've got an
• 33:09
  extra. An extra anonymous, I thought I
• 33:12
  ended up with an extra cannabis as well, but I did.
• 33:15
  But I knew that one. I thought I had another one, but
• 33:19
  I didn't. And I'm like, I don't know what
• 33:21
  to do with it. Partners like, well, she'll just
• 33:23
  sell it and get the money, but there's so many cool bits there
• 33:27
  that could be used on other things and, you know, cool
• 33:31
  customs. Yeah.
• 33:34
  Yeah, it's like poxes. Poxes is the same.
• 33:37
  Yeah. He's a brilliant figure in his
• 33:39
  own, but then he's also a brilliant custom father figure.
• 33:43
  Yeah, that's it. So we have the Dark 4 now, and
• 33:50
  the results have been people which could have got one of
• 33:53
  those photos, people posting their Dark 4 on the horses on
• 33:58
  the shelf. That's really awesome to see.
• 34:03
  Yeah, see, none of none of my dark four.
• 34:05
  And we sat on their horses. The horses were all being
• 34:07
  repurposed for other things. Yeah, I think I remember you
• 34:09
  saying that a few times, right. I'll mention it again, sorry.
• 34:14
  That's OK. No, I'm just saying you're being
• 34:17
  consistent for once. I know this is.
• 34:19
  Blast. I know this is blast for me
• 34:23
  because a lot of people like Arathea, but I actually think
• 34:30
  the other three really show him off in terms of how far just
• 34:35
  from him to a Lithia and then the Lithia to Poxus and Poxus to
• 34:42
  Necronominus. Eh, personally I still.
• 34:45
  Think character is great. I mean he still has some unique
• 34:48
  pieces. He's got some obviously, the
• 34:50
  head, yeah, sculpt and the pauldrons and some of the armor,
• 34:55
  so. Oh yeah, don't get me wrong,
• 34:58
  he's got some excellent bits and so you know, the head, the head
• 35:01
  and the light is very cool, but I don't know if there's just
• 35:03
  something about the other three that puts them above him.
• 35:06
  A Necronominus without doubt of those 3 is just.
• 35:10
  You just, you're just pissed that Arthur wasn't a translucent
• 35:15
  flame, only the flame at the top you wanted the whole body and
• 35:20
  everything to be. Mel wanted a translucent.
• 35:24
  Aethon. Oh no, I know now.
• 35:27
  I really, really like Aethon. He's possibly my favorite of the
• 35:31
  horses, except, well, except for cannabis.
• 35:34
  So those 2A. Pioneer is cannabis an
• 35:39
  excellent, excellent scout NI first comment.
• 35:43
  I mean I'd seen it a bit in the reviews because I saw some
• 35:46
  reviews. Of course, before I got mine.
• 35:48
  I couldn't believe that it is actually pretty much it's a
• 35:52
  whole fully new sculpt. You know, back when we saw that
• 35:58
  Legions con, I was like, Oh yeah, they've put skeleton bits
• 36:01
  and some of the regular horse together, you know, and it looks
• 36:04
  really cool. Wow, it looks good and didn't
• 36:06
  think much more about it. And now I'm looking at it in
• 36:11
  hand and I'm like, wow, this. It's like there is fleshy, meaty
• 36:15
  bits on it, but they're just sculpted on and it's like
• 36:19
  decayed flesh. It's not like perfectly.
• 36:23
  I took them as being like between the bones or not
• 36:26
  muscles, the ligaments and that sort of thing, not decayed
• 36:30
  flesh. But yeah, you're probably right.
• 36:31
  From decayed, decayed flesh. Yeah, So he's great once you.
• 36:39
  Yeah, I'd recommend heating them up just the first time.
• 36:42
  Just you're not going to break him probably.
• 36:44
  But it's just a little bit thinner than the other horses
• 36:48
  and the legs. So just heat those joints up
• 36:51
  just a small bit, just a bit of a hair dryer or something.
• 36:54
  I think that'll be fine. But he stands up great and
• 37:00
  really easy to kind of articulate once you move it the
• 37:03
  first time, all the bits that you get on him second.
• 37:10
  One going to make a barbarian horse, which was Eric Treadway's
• 37:15
  suggestion way back when it was. A barbarian horse.
• 37:21
  Yeah, if you buy. If you buy, he suggested buying
• 37:24
  a second. He's got what he's called the
• 37:29
  All Star 6 Horse, Deacon the second.
• 37:33
  Deacon. She's essentially rebellious.
• 37:37
  And. Giving it to the cannabis armor
• 37:40
  to give yourself a sort of barbarian this course.
• 37:43
  So that all case you swap over the saddle and all the bits.
• 37:47
  Because it's got all the bones and the, you know, it's a more
• 37:49
  rustic looking tackle, tack, whatever you call it.
• 37:55
  Yeah, I know. I've had cannabis on just on my
• 38:00
  painting desk behind me here for maybe a week with Necronomanus
• 38:05
  sitting on top of them, no bother.
• 38:07
  So I think they'll be safe on the shelf.
• 38:11
  So looking good, Looking good. So yeah, we have the skeleton
• 38:16
  horse. Amazing.
• 38:17
  And the reuse that they could use out of that for different
• 38:21
  stuff. It's going to be very
• 38:23
  interesting, yeah. Roll on the dead Centaur.
• 38:30
  That might be a Centaur I get. So there's the glamour shot.
• 38:38
  And here's another skeleton lady kind of skeleton.
• 38:44
  She's not a skeleton really, but she's more undead zombie ish
• 38:50
  Ballouelet. It's a 2.0 figure.
• 38:55
  Did you open it, Rich? I did, and unfortunately I think
• 38:58
  it's one of the best action figures I've ever seen despite
• 39:01
  being a 2.0. So that goes in my normal theory
• 39:03
  of no 2.00. This is amazing.
• 39:06
  But that that matches a bit with my first comment on her, which
• 39:09
  is she's the best 2.0 figure in the line in my opinion.
• 39:15
  And her and her dog. Is it a dog and my let's say dog
• 39:21
  Chimera. OK, with a bunch of heads that
• 39:25
  you can have so much fun attaching to the tuberculi,
• 39:29
  which we get on to later. Our friend Brett Studdard has
• 39:34
  kept us entertained with these pictures of the chimera and
• 39:40
  tuberculi combined. Yeah, So what makes her the best
• 39:47
  2.0? Or what makes her the best
• 39:49
  action figure Rich? Just all the parts.
• 39:53
  I mean that that Viper skull I think is what the my favorite
• 39:56
  thing I think ever that Erica sculpted.
• 39:58
  It's so good. And all it is is the tail on the
• 40:01
  chimera. But it's it's so good with like,
• 40:05
  you know, the jaws hinging open to like swallow its prey and
• 40:09
  that sort of thing. And the fact I just love it.
• 40:11
  I mean, the chimera as a whole is an amazing figure.
• 40:14
  Blue lift herself. I mean, she's cool.
• 40:18
  Anyway, I'll be displaying her with the noseless face.
• 40:20
  I think that works better as a ghoul.
• 40:23
  But the fact that she comes with the blue or the leather hands,
• 40:26
  that's very clever. Her belt with all the little,
• 40:29
  again, these are all pictures you've seen before, but when you
• 40:31
  see him in hand, the belt with all the little skulls on it and
• 40:34
  that sort of thing, and there's a hand, it's, it's so cleverly
• 40:37
  done. I hadn't spotted the fact she
• 40:39
  had a whip before I actually opened it and had it in hand,
• 40:42
  which is great. You know, she's a Beastmaster,
• 40:44
  therefore you need a whip to control them sort of thing.
• 40:46
  So that's just another great touch.
• 40:49
  Yeah, that's right. Yeah, the whip is kind of
• 40:53
  attached to. It is, yeah.
• 40:57
  But works great. Yeah, and.
• 40:59
  But it's, it's just, it's just, it's the, I mean, the figure is
• 41:02
  great, but it's the parts that just take it to that next level,
• 41:05
  you know, the, the, the Vulture, the snake in The Cave.
• 41:09
  It's just incredible, absolutely incredible.
• 41:11
  Thing and that. So the tail is articulated in
• 41:15
  just the middle there, but it's also quite bendy.
• 41:18
  So you can do, you can do bits with it.
• 41:23
  But yeah, definitely a lot of fun to be had with this figure.
• 41:29
  And and that's a that's an accessory with the figure.
• 41:33
  It's it's not really, it's a, it's a separate figure.
• 41:36
  It's like a kind of a sidekick more than I think.
• 41:41
  And the cage cage. I was worried about the cage
• 41:43
  being fragile, but it's not. Solid cage, isn't it?
• 41:46
  Absolutely. I think one of the things I like
• 41:49
  the most, I think in the whole thing was the spare belt that
• 41:51
  comes with it, which appears to have a baby Unicorn skull
• 41:55
  attached to it, right? I have to admit I have.
• 42:00
  For whatever reason, she still sat there.
• 42:03
  Only part of the whole thing. Still sat there in a box.
• 42:06
  Yeah, no, I was, I was thinking like, oh, it's, you know, it's a
• 42:09
  belt with a skull on it and you take it out and you're like,
• 42:11
  it's a Unicorn. And because of this, it's small.
• 42:13
  It must be a baby Unicorn. It's like that is brutal, but I
• 42:17
  love it. OK, need to need to revisit her
• 42:21
  to to see that. So you can do that at home as
• 42:25
  well. If you have a blue lit, check
• 42:28
  out the baby Unicorn on the belt as per Richard Jones.
• 42:34
  So yeah. And the bone color matches.
• 42:37
  So Necronominus, the tuberculi, Maxillus, they're all the the
• 42:41
  same standard bone color, so you can pop around between them.
• 42:51
  Yeah. So what do I have in here?
• 42:56
  It actually was really easy to handle as a 2.0 figure as well.
• 43:01
  There was no fragility to it or anything like that.
• 43:07
  Got the hands off, popped on the the bird on the arm, no problem.
• 43:13
  Or, well, skeleton birds with that still has feathers
• 43:17
  attached, just kind of fly. Somehow.
• 43:22
  Yeah, yeah. I just added to the kind of
• 43:26
  recently plucked, recently diseased these.
• 43:29
  Skeletal dwarfs can have beards, there's no reason why the bird
• 43:32
  can't have a few feathers left. Oh yeah, no, it works.
• 43:35
  It works, definitely. It just makes it a bit more
• 43:38
  macabre or something, right man, Big Greg.
• 43:46
  So sort of check. Yeah, Oh, absolutely.
• 43:51
  A magnificent figure. Big hunk of figure.
• 43:55
  Like probably one of the chunkiest figures we've got
• 43:59
  outside of the the trolls. I couldn't think why they were
• 44:04
  called. But outside of the trolls, it's
• 44:06
  probably like the next chunkiest hunk of a figure.
• 44:10
  And I know a few people have had various problems with him, but
• 44:15
  mine again, blasted a bit with a bit of heat before I moved
• 44:19
  anything around. Moved brilliantly, really
• 44:23
  smooth. Those shoulder pads are
• 44:26
  interesting. They're an interesting new
• 44:30
  addition with the two holes in the back so that.
• 44:35
  That was a little bit confusing. Yes.
• 44:38
  I mean for this one it works in the lower holes and that they're
• 44:41
  a slightly different style. But I'm guessing going forward
• 44:44
  we might get that torso, but what we're getting in Berrida,
• 44:49
  can't we? But I suspect his or be a
• 44:51
  similar use of the holes, whereas there might be others
• 44:55
  moving forward where those traditional Poldron holes or
• 44:59
  what's needed and what she's going to.
• 45:01
  Sneeze yes. So mine mine moves fine but he
• 45:08
  doesn't stand up. He keeps falling over and I
• 45:12
  think it's too on my one it's too articulated at the knee or
• 45:18
  too smooth moving at the knee. So probably need to do something
• 45:22
  to to stiffen up the knee joint a little bit, but it doesn't.
• 45:29
  It just constantly falls over. Like I'd leave it for 10 minutes
• 45:33
  anywhere, come back and it'll be on the ground or.
• 45:39
  Memory of initially when I stood him, he would fall forward and
• 45:44
  you need to he actually his feet initially a slightly not his
• 45:51
  knee, you know, his feet, his ankle joint.
• 45:53
  Actually, it's really hard to tell, but oh.
• 45:55
  Yeah, I messed, I messed around, I took out the I messed around
• 45:58
  with them. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 46:00
  Like it's at the point now where, you know, I've, I've had
• 46:04
  enough figures to know. Yeah, yeah, but I kind of did
• 46:08
  enough messing around with it. Just can't get it easily stay
• 46:13
  standing. So bit annoying.
• 46:16
  Mine also has a bit of pain slop.
• 46:17
  It's not a big deal, but a bit of gold on the white in two
• 46:21
  places, which I I mean can happen with this type of figure
• 46:26
  because it stands out then when there is a bit of but again,
• 46:31
  wouldn't wouldn't see it on on the shelf and I don't like the
• 46:36
  color piece the way it's done. Oh, really?
• 46:40
  No, because it sits on the. It's like it's quite like floppy
• 46:43
  and loose, isn't it? If you know Novian lean rich,
• 46:46
  the way the yellow thing that kind of almost slots into
• 46:50
  between the pauldrons, this kind of just sits there and you put
• 46:53
  the head over it, it kind of sits it in place, but it kind of
• 46:57
  wobbles a bit and. Wobbles OK.
• 46:59
  Yeah, not a huge fan of that. So I have to say, overall, this
• 47:05
  is probably the biggest disappointment.
• 47:06
  I mean, a pity because love Big Greg, you know, and it's still a
• 47:12
  great figure to have a tribute of, but mine was a bit
• 47:16
  disappointing. And oh, it's a shame.
• 47:18
  Yeah, and the feet are terrible. But we've said this before, I
• 47:24
  guess the tooling budget just didn't quite stretch to more
• 47:28
  nightly looking feet. Yeah.
• 47:30
  And they don't work for me. And perhaps it needs slightly
• 47:34
  larger feet with half top heavy. Maybe that would be better.
• 47:38
  Yeah, but they're quite big and the other ogres are fine.
• 47:43
  I haven't had that problem before.
• 47:44
  They haven't got as much going on at the top as yeah.
• 47:47
  That's it, Yeah. So that's scale.
• 47:53
  The skull that comes with them is pretty cool.
• 47:56
  And that is a yeah, that is an ogre orc kind of ogre orc, Yeah.
• 48:07
  With the with the mandibles. And there's a beautiful,
• 48:12
  glamorous shot, Sir Adelrich. So we're on to nights now, a few
• 48:19
  more nights. Hey, he's a bit of a sleeper of
• 48:26
  the wave, I think for a lot of people.
• 48:27
  People kind of passed passed him up a little bit.
• 48:31
  But Rich, you have a few things. Discern him.
• 48:36
  Yeah, so he was my least favorite, I think.
• 48:38
  I mean, you know, I didn't dislike him, but he was the
• 48:40
  least favorite of all the ones when they revealed the wave.
• 48:43
  Yeah, he was the first one I opened.
• 48:44
  It's like, do you know what? That blue, that blue and white
• 48:46
  is drawing me in. I need to open him first.
• 48:49
  And I was pleasantly surprised. It's fair to say the head sculpt
• 48:53
  is much, much better in person than I thought it looked like in
• 48:56
  the pictures and everything. It works really, really well.
• 49:01
  The paw, the Pawdrons are bonkers, but they're so cool.
• 49:04
  They're so flash. They're amazing.
• 49:06
  Yeah, I love them. Yeah, yeah, I'm not sure.
• 49:09
  Usually be in battle, but it's just properly like, look at me,
• 49:12
  I'm wealthy. Look at my pauldrons, guys, it's
• 49:14
  us all. Looks here.
• 49:16
  But he's this night, I think we know from a lot of fantasy
• 49:20
  series that, you know, is all looks the part.
• 49:23
  But as soon as stuff starts to go down, he suddenly kind of
• 49:26
  disappears, you know? Yeah.
• 49:31
  I actually I was worried too about the fact that the torso
• 49:34
  was just painted as opposed to soft goods when the skirt was
• 49:37
  soft goods. But actually I think that works
• 49:39
  really well. Yeah, I don't actually.
• 49:43
  That was something I found and I don't only because I'm comparing
• 49:48
  it now to Gideon and Elijah, who we'll talk about next.
• 49:52
  It doesn't work as well. I like it that it's painted, but
• 49:57
  if you also had the soft goods to go over it so you could
• 50:00
  choose, I think that would be amazing.
• 50:03
  And. But when you just get the one, I
• 50:07
  probably rather the soft goods and I wouldn't have said that
• 50:10
  before. I would have said in the 1st
• 50:13
  place, I prefer this configuration.
• 50:15
  But just in that, and I think it's the glossiness of the paint
• 50:19
  and the more madness of the soft goods really takes me out of it.
• 50:25
  But I guess that's me. You like it.
• 50:27
  So it's going to be one of those things where neither of us is
• 50:32
  wrong. We just like what we like.
• 50:34
  Absolutely. Yeah, exactly.
• 50:35
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 50:36
  What surprised me. Well, it's two things that.
• 50:39
  Sorry, Mel, you go then I'll go. I.
• 50:40
  Was just going to say I actually really like his plume.
• 50:43
  It's absolutely bonkers as a plume goes, but there's just
• 50:46
  something about it. It's just so daft.
• 50:50
  I'm looking at this picture going.
• 50:51
  I can't get my plume to look like that.
• 50:53
  I'll have to have a fiddle with it later.
• 50:56
  I got plumble bits sticking out lower, so I need to do that.
• 50:58
  I need to plume. Yeah, I'm going to have a fiddle
• 51:01
  with my plume later. Right.
• 51:05
  Yeah, Hang on a minute. I need to go and check.
• 51:06
  Well, I know you've said that. I'll be right back.
• 51:09
  You don't mind here? Let's see if we can compare.
• 51:12
  Two things. I was really surprised that that
• 51:16
  rather than a face plate, it was a entirely new head that came
• 51:18
  with him for the skeletal head. Oh yeah, yeah, it looks much
• 51:22
  better. My maybe I need to heat mine up
• 51:26
  and bend the plume a little bit. But yes, the fact that there was
• 51:31
  that the skeletal head was a second head completely threw me.
• 51:35
  It's great, but it threw me. And then if I'm really, really,
• 51:39
  really been a nitpicker, the fact he hasn't got a fancy sword
• 51:42
  bugs me. He's like the wealth.
• 51:45
  He's the wealthiest knight in mythos and he's got a Mace and
• 51:48
  it's a lovely Mace, but it's a Mace and a spear.
• 51:51
  It's like he should have some sort of fancy sword.
• 51:55
  Fair enough. Yeah, I'll give you that.
• 51:57
  But there is lots of fancy swords to pick from I'm sure in
• 52:01
  tubs in your in your collection. Of the three nights we got with
• 52:07
  with this wave, I think weirdly because he's probably in some
• 52:14
  ways more interesting than Sir Elijah.
• 52:17
  I think he's probably my third favorite of the three though.
• 52:23
  Yeah, and here is Sir Elijah. I mean the fact that, and I know
• 52:33
  why they did it because they can't just make everything plug
• 52:35
  and play. But the and the heads are
• 52:38
  slightly different sizes, but the face plates being different
• 52:43
  plugs between a few of these between Gideon and Adlerick is
• 52:49
  different. And Elijah, it's a yeah, it's
• 52:54
  just a little bit annoying, but I understand that it's, you
• 52:58
  know, you can't make everything absolutely plug and play.
• 53:01
  But for example, for the skulls or the yeah, would be would have
• 53:08
  been nice to swap a skull and to Gideon, for example, easily
• 53:12
  Yeah. Well, the spare head said it
• 53:15
  confused me with Sir Rattlerick, but I took the human head off
• 53:18
  and then it came apart. So the faceplate came off the
• 53:22
  the mask, the visor on the helmet came off and was like, Oh
• 53:24
  my God, is it meant to do that? Because obviously we've got a
• 53:27
  completely separate edge rather than just a different face.
• 53:29
  It's like, I know it is OK, that's fine.
• 53:30
  Yeah, it's just because of the the different plugs I think,
• 53:35
  isn't it? This geezer is awesome.
• 53:41
  The soft lids work so well on a Templar, which is quite scary
• 53:44
  for my wallet because I've still got quite a few of the original
• 53:46
  Templars and I'm like don't want them or do I want this?
• 53:49
  Lots of good ones. When you could sell them, I
• 53:52
  don't know how. I sold a lot in there.
• 53:54
  I must have sold 12 the original ones in the in the run up to
• 53:58
  these coming out because I knew these are coming but I've still
• 54:01
  got about 12. Right.
• 54:04
  Because I went slightly Templar bonkers.
• 54:07
  OK, Right, Elijah, Mel. Yeah, I mean, I'm, I'm not a
• 54:14
  Templar fan as, as you know, not that dislike them, I'm just
• 54:20
  yeah, about them. But the minute these soft goods,
• 54:23
  they've got these soft goods, they immediately become the
• 54:26
  Knights in general become far more interesting to me and far
• 54:29
  cooler. I love the colour of his armour,
• 54:34
  that sort of gun metal colour. He's.
• 54:37
  Yeah, it's a nice, it's a nice colour, isn't it?
• 54:40
  Yeah, and I, I like to display if you've got a face sculpt, I
• 54:45
  like to display it with the face sculpt to make it a character.
• 54:48
  But the helmet he comes with, it's so nice.
• 54:52
  It's very pretty, isn't it? Yeah, yeah.
• 54:56
  I, I almost tempted to get to so I can display him with that
• 55:00
  helmet as well. Almost probably won't because
• 55:04
  there's other things I want but. I've only got the one at the
• 55:07
  moment, but eventually I'll have 3.
• 55:08
  So one will be displayed with just the the unhelmeted head,
• 55:11
  one with the helmeted head because it's amazing.
• 55:13
  And then John painted up another head for me so I will have my 3
• 55:17
  Templar emissaries. But this helmet, again, it's the
• 55:19
  colour thing. It's like the red jewel or
• 55:22
  whatever in the middle just ties it into the rest of it so well.
• 55:25
  The gold cross and I love the hammer.
• 55:29
  The hammer is possibly one of my favorite weapons they do now.
• 55:33
  It is absolutely brutal it. I was looking at it again, but
• 55:36
  you can imagine just walking around a battle at the end, do
• 55:38
  it just like finishing off anybody who's like lying on the
• 55:41
  floor groaning and he's just like, bang.
• 55:44
  It's that sort of weapon. It really is that sort of
• 55:47
  weapon. It's just like, Oh my God.
• 55:50
  Yeah, it maybe tells you something about the character,
• 55:53
  doesn't it? True weapon, which is pretty
• 55:54
  cool. It's funny because I hadn't
• 55:57
  thought about that, but I was going to give the one that came
• 56:02
  in the weapons pack to a Christmas themed character a
• 56:06
  call it a Nutcracker. That still works.
• 56:18
  Yeah. And we have, of course,
• 56:20
  beautiful pictures from Trevor from.
• 56:23
  Oh, Mal. Sorry John to interrupt a second
• 56:25
  which popped into my head. Mal, one of those dwarf Lord toy
• 56:28
  design ones, had a orc with its head split open, so if you get
• 56:32
  that then The Nutcracker can be taken care of.
• 56:35
  The orc brutal for Christmas, but he wasn't.
• 56:41
  He was on the naughty list so he had to be dealt.
• 56:42
  With that, that was it. Yeah, he's he's 1.
• 56:47
  You could get 10 of as easily. But.
• 56:53
  A lot of those people that would get 10 of them are like Rich who
• 56:56
  already have 10 or 20 of the original Templar.
• 57:00
  So you see, that's a trickier decision now.
• 57:03
  It's an interesting one because if I was going to get 10, and
• 57:07
  even more so now I've seen Sir Elijah, I'd save my send my 10
• 57:12
  for Siri, not just because I think he's suffered look even
• 57:14
  better. Well from the pictures look even
• 57:17
  better based on what we're seeing are going to be amazing.
• 57:21
  I'll get I'm going to get more of Serena and Sir Elijah just
• 57:23
  because I prefer the lighter silver.
• 57:26
  It's going to say it's different colours, silver, which is
• 57:28
  interesting. It's a lot like Ronnie, no?
• 57:31
  I mean I get what they did that but.
• 57:34
  I. Will say like Andy comes with
• 57:36
  the big Cape as well, which gives you another another look
• 57:42
  on Serenuck. Yeah, might have to Maybe that's
• 57:48
  what we do. We order more Sir Enoch from a
• 57:51
  retailer. Oh dear.
• 57:56
  Right. Maxillus the Harvester and he's
• 58:02
  got a very cool side as well. Not quite as bling as
• 58:06
  Necrominus, which makes sense, but really cool and something
• 58:12
  that could maybe be reused more than the Nick Anomalous one
• 58:18
  because it's a little bit more generic looking even though he's
• 58:24
  a kind of a unique character in himself so.
• 58:28
  I need to find a way to display mine.
• 58:30
  I need to find a way to put the side behind his back so he's not
• 58:33
  actually holding it because I want one of the finger hands
• 58:36
  pointing while holding the hourglass in the other one, so I
• 58:40
  need some way visible. Could you loop it through that
• 58:43
  little ring at the back here maybe?
• 58:47
  Through the the rope belt. No, through the the kind.
• 58:52
  Of oh, through the hoop at the top.
• 58:53
  I hadn't tried that, John. That's a good idea.
• 58:55
  I tried the rope belt and that didn't really work particularly
• 58:57
  well, so. Yeah, I might.
• 58:58
  You might just need to balance it and kind of have it kind of
• 59:01
  the handle slightly into the wing here.
• 59:06
  Yeah. And, and he has another
• 59:08
  accessory, which is the hourglass, which is beautiful.
• 59:11
  I mean, that's of the standard of the what you get with figure
• 59:14
  obscuras kind of stuff, that kind of mad amazing, cool stuff
• 59:20
  that you get with the likes of the gods of ancient Egypt.
• 59:23
  And well, I mean, all the figuras now.
• 59:25
  But you know, they had some bonkers accessories and this is
• 59:30
  a continuation of that. Horsemen seem to be particularly
• 59:33
  good at that kind of stuff. I didn't expect the soft goods
• 59:39
  to be quite that material. I don't know.
• 59:42
  I was expecting it to be a bit heavier and more, and it was a
• 59:50
  nice surprise because actually it works way better.
• 59:52
  It's lighter and kind of a little bit more chiffon kind of
• 59:56
  almost. It works really well.
• 1:00:00
  But I just, I suppose my lack of imagination.
• 1:00:02
  I was just thinking, you know, plain.
• 1:00:06
  Boring material kind of coat with, you know, some wire in it
• 1:00:10
  to make it shape a little bit better.
• 1:00:13
  But the way this material is, it's kind of better.
• 1:00:15
  It's almost a little bit layered.
• 1:00:17
  Is it or it feels like it's layered?
• 1:00:21
  It feels like it. I know you mean absolutely
• 1:00:22
  speaking around the sort of sleeves and that sort of.
• 1:00:24
  Thing I've. Taken it off one of the figures
• 1:00:27
  and I can't remember. I can't even remember where I've
• 1:00:29
  put it. But you're taking off confused
• 1:00:32
  the hell out because I was spreading like a Velcro or
• 1:00:34
  something on the back and it's not.
• 1:00:36
  It's like arms up on the top of the head sort of look.
• 1:00:40
  And it's like, OK. It's like when you're in, you're
• 1:00:43
  helping your 4 year old kid to get dressed back in the day, you
• 1:00:47
  know I'm in the air. Pull the jumper off.
• 1:00:52
  Yeah, and then goods. Kept catching when I was trying
• 1:00:54
  to do that. The soft goods kept catching on
• 1:00:55
  the spine. Yes.
• 1:00:56
  So all the bones sticking out on the spine.
• 1:00:58
  Everyone was like a nugget, a nugget.
• 1:01:01
  A nugget is like Oh my. God, I think, I think did I end
• 1:01:04
  up popping the arms out, which was interesting as well because
• 1:01:07
  of course with it being up in the sleeves, I was like this is
• 1:01:11
  going to be difficult heat up. I think I dunked it with the IT
• 1:01:14
  on and then popped them out, pulled it off that way, but it
• 1:01:18
  was still getting caught on these ribs and his spine and all
• 1:01:22
  that. Yeah.
• 1:01:25
  Problems we have. At.
• 1:01:28
  This point I should say mine was a casualty of war as well.
• 1:01:32
  So I took the first head off, I went to put the second head off
• 1:01:36
  and the neck just snapped straight off.
• 1:01:39
  First time I've ever had a breakage that hasn't been my
• 1:01:42
  fault with A4 horsemen figure. So I'll take that as a positive
• 1:01:44
  that I've opened hundreds. But yeah, this is the first one
• 1:01:47
  for me. So, so important.
• 1:01:49
  McCall hopefully will do me do me a solid.
• 1:01:52
  Or if they listen to this podcast, maybe they won't.
• 1:01:58
  The armor over the top of the the soft goods then is amazing.
• 1:02:03
  I didn't expect it to be that good, but it really UPS the
• 1:02:08
  value of this figure. And compared to the Legion
• 1:02:10
  builder, if you were thinking what you're getting beyond the
• 1:02:15
  Legion builder is the soft goods.
• 1:02:17
  No, you're getting the yeah, the soft goods, but also this
• 1:02:22
  amazing armor and then this thing over the back with the
• 1:02:24
  wings and everything. It's absolutely bonkers.
• 1:02:32
  It is. I don't think I'd managed to
• 1:02:33
  forget the fact there were wings there.
• 1:02:34
  And then when I opened up, it was like a moment because it's
• 1:02:38
  like, those are so good. I also think why were you
• 1:02:43
  changing the head sculpt on it? You don't need to because the
• 1:02:46
  one the. One on it is better, but the
• 1:02:49
  picture I sent you boys was was what I'm going to do for the
• 1:02:52
  Ghost of Christmas future and I wanted just a normal head sculpt
• 1:02:56
  on that one so on. So it's basically your fault
• 1:02:59
  because I was changing it over to show the picture to you guys
• 1:03:02
  and then it snapped off so. Yeah, I mean, to be fair, I I
• 1:03:07
  have him as Maxillas with the OR Maxillas it, isn't it?
• 1:03:11
  No Sillas with the with the sculpt, with no eyes.
• 1:03:16
  But then of course I've got him displayed as a skeleton and I'm
• 1:03:19
  going to get, I've got another one on order from Big Bad that
• 1:03:23
  I'm going to display is the Grim Reaper.
• 1:03:24
  So I shall also be doing what Rich is doing.
• 1:03:28
  With the neck. Well, I've done 1 already
• 1:03:31
  without a problem. All right, show off my big
• 1:03:37
  sausage fingers. It was just like, yeah, this.
• 1:03:39
  Is it? This is where having small
• 1:03:41
  fingers is probably a good thing.
• 1:03:46
  Right, the tuberculae. You managed to get him out and
• 1:03:53
  break him rich. I got him out.
• 1:03:55
  I hadn't broken him. It took me quite a while to
• 1:03:57
  figure out how the tail went on, right?
• 1:04:00
  Because there's like, I can't go on that way.
• 1:04:01
  That doesn't make sense. And then eventually it was like,
• 1:04:02
  oh, it does go on that way. Right.
• 1:04:03
  OK, I love this guy, though. He's he's, I mean, I'm going to
• 1:04:09
  RIP him apart and use him for pieces for lots of stuff.
• 1:04:11
  So the the long arms I've showed, the picture I showed you
• 1:04:13
  guys was for my ghost a Christmas future sort of thing
• 1:04:16
  with the giant long crazy arms. But he's a great figure.
• 1:04:22
  Yeah, I'm already contemplating buying a few more in April when
• 1:04:30
  the excesses of March have passed.
• 1:04:35
  You think they're going to pass into like total Cam now?
• 1:04:41
  No more calls on the wallet, no. My wallet is taking a beating
• 1:04:48
  this month alongside the dragon part of that.
• 1:04:52
  Yeah, I love this guy. This guy you can just play with
• 1:04:56
  for ages. I love the also the slightly odd
• 1:05:02
  scale with the dwarf Hitler. Sorry, Ties, ties juice.
• 1:05:11
  There was there was just bone. So I was like, what is that
• 1:05:13
  called Tie? Yeah.
• 1:05:17
  And then obviously the extra long arms.
• 1:05:19
  So I mean, I think we're we're a good step of the way towards the
• 1:05:23
  ogre skeleton a bit with this guy.
• 1:05:25
  We're also, we also have dwarf skeleton obviously with Scully
• 1:05:28
  bone splitter, but you're almost getting there with full bone.
• 1:05:33
  You know, the dwarf shins. Yeah, we need full dwarf bones,
• 1:05:39
  Yeah. That would be nice, but there's
• 1:05:41
  not much. It's probably just that maybe,
• 1:05:45
  and then they can do the dwarf. It is.
• 1:05:47
  I think it is just the shins, isn't it?
• 1:05:49
  Because I think scally. Comes they could do they might
• 1:05:53
  need I think the arms as well. Maybe the forearm would would be
• 1:05:57
  better as well, yeah. I love the tail.
• 1:06:00
  I have to admit it was took me a second to realize it was
• 1:06:03
  bendable because that's part of the reason I was trying to get a
• 1:06:06
  tail line is like that's not going to stand.
• 1:06:07
  That don't sounds like you'd be an idiot to just move.
• 1:06:08
  Just bend the tail. There we go.
• 1:06:10
  But I've got a a dragon and then the dragon or dragon kin, not
• 1:06:14
  dragon and then the dragon kin figure, which I can use the tail
• 1:06:17
  for now. Oh no.
• 1:06:18
  So that will enhance that figure nicely.
• 1:06:22
  Yeah, it's great. And you get a bunch of different
• 1:06:26
  hands with him. Also those bigger hands to go
• 1:06:29
  with the bigger arms, which is. I tried those bigger hands on
• 1:06:33
  Maxillus and it was like, no, that just doesn't work.
• 1:06:37
  I wanted it to be like a crazy big, like creepy hand and it's
• 1:06:40
  like just on the short arms that just that just looks weird.
• 1:06:44
  But it could probably work for some sort of photography, you
• 1:06:48
  know, for these really good photographer that has the kind
• 1:06:51
  of hand and then Maxillus that could that could really work
• 1:06:56
  with a bit of force perspective or something like that.
• 1:07:00
  Yeah, he's got a bunch of cool weapons as well.
• 1:07:04
  I mean, we've had these before, but they are particularly cool.
• 1:07:07
  Two of the same kind of machetes and that curved bladed short I.
• 1:07:16
  Think it's a your bonus or John I believe is the first one.
• 1:07:19
  OK, there you go. And a different heads here and
• 1:07:25
  we'll also get some more heads. The different heads, for me it's
• 1:07:29
  just like it's the same head but without the horns and the horns
• 1:07:31
  are brilliant, so I don't really need the second head.
• 1:07:34
  Now don't be wrong, I'm sure you take it off and put it on
• 1:07:36
  different figure with the hood maybe and it would actually look
• 1:07:39
  really cool. It's funny because I mean, I've
• 1:07:41
  got the horned one because I, you know, I just really like
• 1:07:44
  that one. He's got sort of given vibes to
• 1:07:46
  it. But yeah, some of the pictures
• 1:07:50
  I've seen people have done, but you know, with the non horned
• 1:07:54
  head and I'm like, that does actually look really, really
• 1:07:56
  good with that head. He's got so much character
• 1:07:59
  considering it's just bones. Oh, pardon me.
• 1:08:02
  Oh, yeah. Really.
• 1:08:05
  Really. Like, and you can, I'm going to
• 1:08:08
  put this up on screen here. You can also use the two, the
• 1:08:13
  double neck from the Chimera and my kid put the Calavius helmet
• 1:08:21
  on there. I know that looks cool.
• 1:08:23
  Actually. Yeah, yeah, I left it on because
• 1:08:25
  it looks cool. So yeah, you can do the the
• 1:08:28
  double neck thing. So very cool.
• 1:08:32
  There's so much mix and imagine with this guy.
• 1:08:34
  Oh yeah, yeah. Just I've just sent you guys a
• 1:08:37
  picture of somebody using the the hornless head in an amazing
• 1:08:41
  custom. So actually you can you can use
• 1:08:44
  it and it looks great, right. Who was the name of the person
• 1:08:49
  it was Good God, it had to be the name.
• 1:08:53
  Spell out that, didn't it? Maverick.
• 1:08:56
  Maverick Requetech. OK.
• 1:09:01
  Yes, Requetech, I think. But yeah, it's just an awesome.
• 1:09:06
  Let me just put in the camera. It's pretty too bright, but it's
• 1:09:13
  it's it's a perculi one with Necronomicus pieces and some
• 1:09:23
  Zende, the Zende cloak. And then he's bought a, a staff
• 1:09:26
  from somebody else, but it's it went straight in.
• 1:09:29
  It went straight into my full customs of the year options
• 1:09:32
  folder. Wow, the end of year.
• 1:09:34
  Straight in. Well done, Maverick.
• 1:09:37
  Yes, there you see him. It looks great.
• 1:09:41
  Yeah, such a cool figure. I think you're right that head
• 1:09:45
  does look good in the of goods. That's the sort of of shit I
• 1:09:48
  hope I don't see allegiance con because that might be coming
• 1:09:50
  home with me if I do. Hilarious.
• 1:09:58
  All right on the home stretch here now last figure is Undead
• 1:10:07
  Builder Hat pack. So this is the the zombie and
• 1:10:14
  the kind of translucent skeleton dude obviously miles favour
• 1:10:19
  between the two. I prefer the zombie.
• 1:10:24
  Yeah, I I originally popped told no, he comes with the
• 1:10:28
  translucent. Comes with the ghost, sort of
• 1:10:29
  translucent. Yeah, so I just stuck that head
• 1:10:32
  on the top of him and I'm like, yeah, I'm happy with that.
• 1:10:34
  The only other one I then want is the from the Heads pack from
• 1:10:38
  the All Stars where he's got the stub.
• 1:10:41
  And so that'll be my zombie one. He's no no head.
• 1:10:45
  Damn it, I forgot about that. Now that's another one.
• 1:10:47
  Only problem with this is it's a deluxe.
• 1:10:49
  So you want like 6:00 and you're like, oh God, it's going to cost
• 1:10:51
  fortune. Yeah.
• 1:10:53
  And then when it gets to retail, deluxe is even a bit more so.
• 1:10:57
  Yeah. And I'm not sure there'll be
• 1:11:00
  sales on this guy, so. But all of that, all of that, I
• 1:11:04
  mean, there's 4 heads and they're all really good.
• 1:11:06
  Even the translucent ones. Yes, the translucent.
• 1:11:10
  Was it weird that it came in the box with the skull without the
• 1:11:15
  jaw? Yes, I would have expected,
• 1:11:18
  well, first of all, I'd expected it to come with the zombie
• 1:11:20
  parts. So I was quite surprised it came
• 1:11:22
  with the ghost parts. That for me didn't make sense.
• 1:11:28
  But maybe they think somebody looking at on a shelf and shop
• 1:11:31
  will think, well actually, you know, they might miss the
• 1:11:33
  translucent parts, whereas they'll see the the separate
• 1:11:36
  zombie limbs. Maybe that's all I can think of
• 1:11:37
  with that. But the IT it for me, it looked
• 1:11:42
  like, do I need to search the box for the lower jaw?
• 1:11:45
  And then I had to look at the reference photos to see that
• 1:11:49
  actually, that's how that head comes.
• 1:11:53
  So that seemed like a weird choice to me.
• 1:11:55
  Yeah, no, the I'm going to use the the the jawless head that it
• 1:12:00
  comes with. I'm going to use that with one
• 1:12:02
  of the like the blue wisp sort of effect, and it pains me to
• 1:12:06
  say this with some blue haggon parts that I have.
• 1:12:08
  I didn't buy a blue haggon. I clarify that straight away.
• 1:12:11
  But no, Stefan Delatore popped them in.
• 1:12:14
  I bought some figures off of me, popped those in as a freebie.
• 1:12:17
  So I have a blue haggon limbs. Man, Steph.
• 1:12:20
  I'm joined by a cat now for this part of the show.
• 1:12:24
  Oh. There you go.
• 1:12:25
  Look. But yes, so I will use that for
• 1:12:29
  that. Yeah, basically, but with the
• 1:12:30
  bluer limbs sort of thing. So awesome.
• 1:12:35
  And this is a great figure though I really like it and
• 1:12:41
  spare. Ankles that you came with is
• 1:12:43
  that in case you want to use a like a armoured foot but you can
• 1:12:49
  still see the ankle that is ghostly or zombie.
• 1:12:53
  Yeah, I guess so, yeah, Yeah. Or maybe just if you had some
• 1:12:58
  feet around and you, you know, I think it's great that they come
• 1:13:02
  with those type of parts because those are the parts that you
• 1:13:06
  don't get, Oh yeah, you know, from 3D places.
• 1:13:12
  So even if you got set of 3D feet, you'd have ankle joints to
• 1:13:17
  be able to attach them. And while we're talking about
• 1:13:20
  extra things that come with them, the spare, the spare neck
• 1:13:23
  seems to come with everything. Yeah.
• 1:13:25
  It looks exactly the same as the one that's on the figure.
• 1:13:27
  It is the same, yeah. Why give us a?
• 1:13:32
  Second, don't know. I mean, I'm not.
• 1:13:33
  Complaining. I'm sure I could use it for the
• 1:13:34
  figures. You haven't got that more
• 1:13:36
  articulated neck. It just seems a strange
• 1:13:39
  decision. I did see some theories, but
• 1:13:41
  then as I know, they just said no, we just put them in.
• 1:13:44
  You know, if you want to use the head on another figure, I think
• 1:13:48
  was the point maybe. Yeah, extra heads.
• 1:13:52
  I just took it all as being. Like I would not complain, they
• 1:13:55
  keep doing that. Oh no, no way shape or form my
• 1:13:57
  complaining, I was just confused as hell.
• 1:14:00
  Yeah, and I assume it wasn't a mistake because it would seem
• 1:14:03
  too consistent. Yeah.
• 1:14:07
  Yeah. I love that zombie jaw head.
• 1:14:10
  So good. That was a great idea to do.
• 1:14:13
  See, you see it really well there in the glamour shot.
• 1:14:16
  Whatever. So how about ranking them?
• 1:14:22
  Oh. Lordy.
• 1:14:26
  Or even I'm. Going to say look Jack Bishop
• 1:14:28
  and cannabis a bottom of mine because I don't have them, so
• 1:14:32
  that'll make it easier. Right.
• 1:14:35
  Favorite. Then should we go around the
• 1:14:37
  house for favorite on this balloon?
• 1:14:43
  It's for you, OK, Mal. To perky life for me.
• 1:14:46
  To perky life for me. I'm going to go.
• 1:14:48
  Gideon for me. Yeah.
• 1:14:50
  You just just such a great figure.
• 1:14:53
  One of the figures that got me in the line in the 1st place was
• 1:14:56
  Gideon. I know it started with Advent,
• 1:15:00
  but I got a Gideon through the in stock sale and really liked
• 1:15:05
  him just that night figure and this one is blows that one out
• 1:15:09
  of the water. So.
• 1:15:12
  And if that's the standard for the future, we're in for a
• 1:15:17
  treat. Oh, absolutely.
• 1:15:22
  My favorite of the bad guys then probably would be balloon lit as
• 1:15:28
  well or to I know Tubercula. I'm going to go Tubercula.
• 1:15:31
  Just too much fun, too much fun. And of the good guys then for
• 1:15:36
  you, Mel. Yeah, Sir Gideon.
• 1:15:38
  Yeah, he's just Sir Gideon. Yeah, realistically, it's like,
• 1:15:41
  you know what, A1B isn't it with the him and tuberculae, for me
• 1:15:46
  anyway. And rich Sir Elijah, Sir
• 1:15:50
  Gideon's a better figure, but the I'm never going to be a Gold
• 1:15:53
  Knight over a Silver Knight, so Sir Elijah wins.
• 1:15:57
  But you are going to pick a 2.0 is your favorite.
• 1:16:00
  I am as per normal. Despite what I generally say, I
• 1:16:04
  am 100% picking it as possible. You know, one of my favorite
• 1:16:06
  figures. And nearly he was nearly picking
• 1:16:08
  Sir Adel record, the one that he wasn't even interested or as
• 1:16:12
  interested in as his favorite good guy.
• 1:16:15
  Yeah, it was worth the wait for these figures.
• 1:16:16
  It's fair to say this is the best wave.
• 1:16:18
  Without a shadow of a doubt in hand.
• 1:16:20
  They're fabulous. Yeah, and we've got not far
• 1:16:24
  around the corner. I mean, we're all we've all got
• 1:16:26
  Dragon on the brain, but not far around the corner we have All
• 1:16:30
  Star 6 dropping in our mailboxes.
• 1:16:32
  Yeah, Jeremy was saying he's hoping, I can't remember where
• 1:16:35
  he said it. I don't think it was our might
• 1:16:37
  be in our show actually, but he was saying they hope to have
• 1:16:39
  them on the water sort of thing by the end of March.
• 1:16:42
  So they'll be going out mid-May sort of thing.
• 1:16:45
  And it's like, wow, that's. Awesome.
• 1:16:49
  Yeah, the the All Stars yourself, that wave might look a
• 1:16:55
  bit plain. Now, judging on this wave might
• 1:16:59
  start to look a little bit a. Little bit.
• 1:17:03
  Creepy underwhelming the other ones get.
• 1:17:06
  Hopefully they didn't overstock themselves too much on those
• 1:17:09
  because they might be left with them for a while otherwise.
• 1:17:12
  If they made a lot of clavions or in all sorts of Oliver.
• 1:17:16
  You've been consistent on that too, to be.
• 1:17:18
  They have, and in fairness. I'm probably going to buy 2
• 1:17:20
  clavians but that's not the point.
• 1:17:22
  It's like a waste of time figure.
• 1:17:25
  You paint anything red and there seems to be a bunch of mugs out
• 1:17:28
  there. We'll call it Fury Instigate in
• 1:17:30
  that group. Yeah, Furious.
• 1:17:34
  Good. And I think, yeah, definitely
• 1:17:36
  good. And using the red limbs, you
• 1:17:38
  know, people will come up with stuff for that, right?
• 1:17:43
  That's it. So what are we going to do next
• 1:17:45
  week then? We're kind of in, we're in
• 1:17:47
  dragon limbo now. We love the dragon update, but
• 1:17:52
  outside of that we'll have to think of other stuff, maybe get
• 1:17:56
  a guest, I don't know. Yeah, still.
• 1:17:59
  Yeah. Or I could do a lot of faction
• 1:18:00
  stuff again. I know if you're feeling tired,
• 1:18:04
  John, we could do that because I need you like to just lean back
• 1:18:06
  and just go to sleep when I'm doing my factions.
• 1:18:10
  If you could just record that and send it over.
• 1:18:12
  And send it to me. Yeah, no problem.
• 1:18:17
  What I will be? Doing this week so it'll be fine
• 1:18:20
  for next week is the two red hellions that I was gifted by
• 1:18:24
  Ben McCall and Eugene Eunuch. I will mind BIOS for them and
• 1:18:31
  taking some pictures so so we can cover those maybe if nothing
• 1:18:34
  else. Speaking of Eugene, he sent me
• 1:18:37
  his pins because I forgot to get the legions gone.
• 1:18:41
  We were talking and so he sent me these 4 pins.
• 1:18:44
  So I've completed my my my. I have a little pin display like
• 1:18:51
  Mal has in the background there and Eugene's 4 pins filled up
• 1:18:56
  the bottom of it so I think I need to get another one for
• 1:19:01
  future pins. So fun to have a little pin
• 1:19:05
  collection as well on the wall. Easy to display.
• 1:19:10
  It's weird, I'm not bothered about these pins yet.
• 1:19:12
  Me 20 years ago I'd have been all over the pins.
• 1:19:17
  Yeah, for some reason they're not just not doing much way.
• 1:19:21
  No. And you have a Mark Calvo order
• 1:19:24
  underway, Rich is. That I do.
• 1:19:25
  He's painting stuff at the moment.
• 1:19:28
  I mean, he painted a dragon head for me and the next, you know,
• 1:19:31
  you put a post that going, yeah, I'm doing more Dragons.
• 1:19:33
  I'm loving this. So some all sorts of colors are
• 1:19:35
  for sale. He painted and an ogre snake man
• 1:19:41
  head for me. He just finished it earlier on
• 1:19:44
  today actually had the pictures through for that.
• 1:19:45
  That looks really good. So yeah, Mark, Mark stuff is
• 1:19:49
  amazing. So that'll be coming to you,
• 1:19:51
  John. Very cool.
• 1:19:53
  Forward on to me so. Yeah, I I recorded an episode
• 1:19:57
  with Curtis of his How they do that art by Ackerman Channel and
• 1:20:04
  for my. Kind of aliens, you know, the
• 1:20:07
  translucente or not translucente, fluorescente type
• 1:20:11
  paint jobs, that kind of stuff. So that'll be coming out the end
• 1:20:15
  of this month, I think. So I think he drops them every
• 1:20:18
  Monday. So I think I'm not the I'm not
• 1:20:20
  next Monday, but the Monday after.
• 1:20:22
  So look out for that. I'm sure we'll share it on the
• 1:20:25
  page as well and let you know. So you had me come to you next,
• 1:20:30
  Rich. Yeah.
• 1:20:33
  Art with Rich so this is how you draw a non straight straight
• 1:20:37
  line. I was about to say John, you had
• 1:20:40
  me well trained to those fluorescent things allegiance
• 1:20:42
  can't tell you and you just spit off and I was covering the table
• 1:20:44
  and somebody came over. I was straight on the black
• 1:20:46
  light You showed them. Look, look, there you go.
• 1:20:48
  There you go and sold 2. Yeah, there we go.
• 1:20:51
  I never said that they took artists.
• 1:20:53
  Actually, they go by black. I suppose people know that.
• 1:20:56
  I know. Yeah, they're sick of it.
• 1:20:59
  I'm going to have to think of a new trick for this year.
• 1:21:03
  Yeah, I'm going to have to start paying more stuff for a start.
• 1:21:07
  Yeah, that's the plan anyway. Just do various burnt versions
• 1:21:13
  of characters. It might be a year early, I
• 1:21:18
  think I. Think yeah.
• 1:21:19
  That might be Legions can 26, yeah, 26 and we'll all have our.
• 1:21:23
  Kind of beams order in soon as well because David will be
• 1:21:26
  shipping the box over soon. So yeah.
• 1:21:30
  And. Those are the boys.
• 1:21:32
  The Barbarians, the red picked up for me and you, well, they're
• 1:21:37
  in Zurich today, so maybe, maybe for next week we can also have a
• 1:21:41
  little look at Barbarians in hand.
• 1:21:45
  So if you brought the shade out of us with your fractions, Rich,
• 1:21:48
  we can have Barbarians. I was going to say.
• 1:21:50
  Yeah, you guys enjoy your show. I'll just do wash my hair.
• 1:21:54
  Fact they're in Switzerland is quite good isn't it?
• 1:21:56
  Because usually a barbarian is a neutral character in a when it
• 1:22:01
  comes to DND so. Yeah, flew past my house to go
• 1:22:07
  to Zurich. I thought that was good, Mal.
• 1:22:09
  I think John missed it, but I thought that was good.
• 1:22:13
  I'll get it on the listen back. Oh, that was really funny.
• 1:22:18
  Why was I like a gormless idiot as he was saying that?
• 1:22:25
  Cool. So lots of stuff happening.
• 1:22:26
  Really lots of stuff happening. So anyway, go check out last
• 1:22:29
