November 08, 2024 Collegiate Legends Football Action Figures Pick Up Hasbro's Fumble and Might. Go. All. The. Way.
Rob Post and Holly Tanory join us for this week’s Reluctant Adult Conversation. You may know Rob from his other toy line— fan favorite, fantasy-themed Savage Crucible. And you may know Holly from her steadfast Alabama football home game attendance. Together, they are responsible for one of the rising stars of the action figure world; the first super poseable college football action figures. Which institutions of higher learning are next on the Dean’s list for Collegiate Legends? Plus, could see the line expand to include other characters from the college football universe? And, why hasn’t anyone ever tried this before? Admittedly, Paul’s college football knowledge leaves something to be desired, so he tapped into the Morphing Grid to call in a favor from one half of the Bulk and Skull of podcasting, Billy from Zeo to Hero.
