Episode 97 - WaterWorld

Remember The Road Warrior? aka Mad Max 2? That movie was awesome. It was so good, in fact, that in the mid '90s Kevin Costner made a ripoff/remake/reimagining but instead of dry land, everything was …

Episode 96 - Go-Bots (Part 1)

Sure, everyone loves Transformers, but what about those OTHER shape-shifting robots that came out a year earlier? The GoBots don't get much love because they're smaller, simpler, and cheaper. But tha…

Talking Toys: Action Figure Exclusive #140 - Karatti

You know how in the '80s companies would shoehorn fads into a toy line and make it kind of tangentially related? Yeah, that's kinda what happened here. But that doesn't mean the toy isn't cool! Liste…

00:40:29 | Sun 13 Sep 2020

Episode 95 - Filmation's Ghostbusters

Yeah, we were just as confused as you back in the '80s when we heard the term "Ghostbusters toys" and looked up to see....this. You'll have to listen to find out the backstory of this line but you kn…

Episode 95 - Sun-Man (and Taylor's Crusade)

Diversity is not a bad thing. Period. This month, the guys talk about a small line from the mid-80s that was born out of a mother's desire to give her son toys that looked like him and his friends. I…

Talking Toys: Action Figure Exclusive #137 - Klaatu (Skiff Guard)

No, it's not a repeat. Kenner didn't even reuse the head sculpt! We get an entirely NEW KLAATU (which sounds somewhat like a band, right?) Now, that's not to say this is a great figure. Or is it? Lis…
