Toy Power Podcast

This thing is so big, we had to record in a different room! Streamed live on FB on May the 4th, we opened a truely once in a lifetime item: Mattel's Origins Eternia. You thought we were silly usually, wait till there's no editing, multiple cameras and live comments from all the fans. Insanity abounds, Eternia awaits.

This week on the Toy Power Podcast, we have Morgan back in studio to get to know a little more about him. Kicking off with the usual Favourite Toy & Favourite Movie as a 10yr old; plus, a bonus question as well. Then we jump right into another segment of our ongoing Vintage Toy Awards! This round focusing on the Evil Decepticons! We run through all the classic tiers including Standout "Leader Class" Decepticon, Standout 2nd Tier Character, Best use of Colour, Best Sculpting, Best Accessories, Most Fun toy, Fave Beast mode, Fave Vehicle/alt mode, Fave Playset mode and Best Overall Figure. There are some repeated callouts, proving some of these Decepticon Transformers are just awesome toys all around. What did we miss; would love to hear your thoughts on this too! Enjoy!

Long time Patreon Morgan joins us to look at what happening in the world of toys. He's so keen that Frank forgets how to tune a microphone - apologies for the audio issues! There's a slew of Marvel Legends and more Makina - but which colour is our fave? Is this the best version of Cringer Mattel has ever done? Is Beast Man lacking the furry factor? Ben has a cow over the newly revealed Moo-Mesa figures before we look at what appears to be the swan song of The Masterpiece line. Then a quick Reading/Watching/Playing where we plug our latest Patreon initiative, The Toy Power Book Club!

This week on the Toy Power Podcast, we continue to delay the milestone 350th ep. However, we still have a fun new show for you all! Frank has just received his Super 7 Ultimates TMNT Party Wagon and brought it along to review on the show. It is equally very very large, and incredibly detailed. We break down all the features as well as the other items that are packed into this Vehicles release. Then 2nd segment is all around the Movies that have already been released thus far. We go around the room and see who has seen what - with a little chat on each as well as a rating out of 19. Movies include: Argyle, Dune 2, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, Godzilla X Kong & Madame Webb. Another fun episode all around!

This week on The Toy Power Podcast, its just the dynamic duo again; Trent & Ben. This round, we kick things off with a kind of a new segment that we pitch a vintage toy against its modern counterpart version. The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly. Trent got so excited, he brought several options to the table. So we have Green Ghost (aka Slimmer), Power Arm Terminator, Stilgar from Dune, Ming the Merciless from Flash Gordon & also Lion-O from Thunder Cats as well. Some we also have a 3rd option to chat to as well. Then rounding out the ep we chat to the first two episodes of the highly anticipated X-Men 97' Cartoon! Our thoughts, and how closely does it actually feel to the famous 90s release.

This week on The Toy Power Podcast, we are down to just two hosts. With Frank enjoying a well earned Family Holiday in New Zealand; and Scot attending to a rather serious incident at home. So its just Trent & Ben left to surge on with the show! We bring you all the latest news we could manage, everything from Street Sharks, Ninja Turtles, DC McFarlane and Street Fighter too! Heaps of MOTU news from both Origins & Masterverse; plus a combination of reveals from the Turtles of Grayskull mashup line. Then news from that Galaxy Far Far Away.... and then rounding the ep out on a bit of Reading Playing Watching. Please note - all is ok with Scot & his family.

This week on the Toy Power Podcast, we have Brett back in studio to unpack how Davey & himself came up with the idea of Radical Rewind, as well as their journey to make the first screening of Batman 89'an absolute sell out show success!! With the announcement of the next film being the 1990's TMNT Live action film in April; Radical Rewind are setting themselves up for an ongoing crowd-puller event!! A brief around the room review of the Batman film itself; with it being a first time for most seeing in on the big screen! Then we pivot over to a rival universe, to do an in hand review of the Mezco Fantastic Four box set! This is absolute premium set of toys, with more accessories, hands, heads and special parts then one collector will potentially ever get around to utilising! A genuinely awesome product indeed. All this plus news on our milestone 350th ep! Hope to see you at either the next Radical Rewind screening, or the upcoming Adelaide Comic & Toy Fair both set in April!!

Adelaide silver-fox-nerd Brett Owen stops by to check out the news. Because it's news day, The Todd brings his A(zrael) game. Playmates steps up to the plate with something new, but is NECA closing in already? Lego Batman is usually a big deal but have they missed a trick with the latest set? Ben and Frank step aside so Trent and Scot can gush about Dune Part 2 before we wrap it up with some latest scores - as Brett trumps us all with his tales from Japan!

This week on the Toy Power Podcast, we do a classic retrospective best of vote! But this time, instead of one big line; we select from three smaller lines, and vote accordingly. This in turn causes some confusion at the start, but we sort ourselves out; and get the votes right eventually! Sectuars, Silverhawks & Bravestarr are the challenges for this round, and it proves hard or sometimes overwhelming what gets our vote for each round. Then we pivot across to an extremely generous Mystery Box delivered to the studio from fellow Patreon member: FireFly_81 aka Micheal. Mad appreciation champ!!
