THE SOLO TRAILER IS HERE! BUT WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR STAR WARS ACTION FIGURE COLLECTORS? DAN AND MAC ARE EXCITED TO SEE HAN SOLO IN HIS OWN STORY BUT WHAT ABOUT THE TOYS?

Our adventure on the red carpet for Funko’s documentary, Making Fun: The Story of Funko continues thanks to the latest episode of the Funko Funcast. Be sure to download this fun show to hear your humble hosts at their first Hollywood premiere!

Mac picked up the Disney Parks Droid Factory sets for The Last Jedi and has a quick review of the sets. Head over to our website for photos of these great figures!

Thanks to everyone that emailed responses to our various giveaways between December and January. We read some of the best responses. We received a ton of email for these contests and we’re overwhelmed by your support! Again, thanks!

This week’s segment of I Wanted Everything, where we discuss recent buys is a huge one this week as we catch on the past two months of collecting including an amazing gift from listener, “Joel.” Check out Joel’s amazing diorama work!

We take a look at the Solo: A Star Wars Story trailer and wonder what it will mean for action figure collectors as Hasbro decides to change how it releases new merchandise.

With news of even more Star Wars movies comingwe discuss how will it be possible to keep up with more and more movie releases and the merchandise that goes along with it. It’s a conversation you don’t want to miss and it’s one that we’ll carry over into our next show. This is a BIG DEAL for collectors.

MAYBE WE SHOULD HAVE TITLED THIS ONE "DAN AND MAC'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE!" WE WERE IN HOLLYWOOD FOR A CRAZY COUPLE OF DAYS INCLUDING A RED CARPET MOVIE PREMIERE!

Thanks to the awesome folks at Funko, we were invited to the premiere of the new documentary, Making Fun: The Story of Funko. It was an amazing time for these two little podcasters and we've got all the details!

After some airline snafus we made it to Los Angeles, checked into our hotel and spent the evening at the Star Wars-themed bar, Scum & Villainy Cantina with the hosts of the Funko Funcast podcast and WWE Superstar, Matt Cardona, aka Zack Ryder.

The next morning we went to Downtown Disney at Disneyland so Mac could get a tiny fix of Disney magic and also to pick up the Droid Factory exclusives from The Last Jedi. A quick dinner at Bubba Gump's at Universal City Walk and we were ready for our first red carpet, Hollywood premiere!

We had a blast walking the red carpet and meeting other guests. The movie was a love letter, not only in celebration of Funko's twenty years but for the fans too. Check out our YouTube channel for an unboxing video of some exclusive merchandise that Funko handed out to those in attendance.

Dan and Mac are back after Christmas and they have the toys to prove it! Santa was very good to your hosts and it was pretty good year in general for Star Wars action figure collectors.

As 2017 draws to a close we’re looking back at some of our favourite Star Wars collectibles that were released in the past year.

We have both seen Star Wars: The Last Jedi multiple times now and we’ve got some more geeking out to do! Fair warning though, we liked The Last Jedi—a lot. No room here for haters!

We’ve seen a lot of new merchandise from The Last Jedi but can we expect more in 2018? We talk about who and what we’d like to see in plastic form from The Last Jedi.

We announced two winners of the Box Lunch exclusive Funko Pop BB-9E and there’s one more chance for you to win in our Christmas Giveaway as we announce our final giveaway. Make sure to listen for all the details!

We would like to thank everyone who has gotten onboard the Sandcrawler express over the past year. We have had a blast bringing the show to you and wish you all a very Happy New Year and may the force be with you in 2018!
