Toy Power Podcast

This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we shine light on quite an old property; that is The Shadow!  From its origins in Pulp Comic Format to the Hollywood Film in 1994 staring Alec Baldwin.  That Film was classified big enough to spawn a corresponding Toyline from Kenner.  Trent unpacks what was great, and what was left in the dark, around this neat property.  Then we switch gears, and have a FULL-ON Spoiler lead discussion around the new Marvel Film that is: Thunderbolts - or New Avengers?!?  We run though how each character played their part; the tone of the film & what we all overall thought of it too.  Keen to hear from your thoughts on this Film too!

Yes, there is news to talk too - some of it huge. Like a certain huge dragon. Huge fundraisers. Huge SDCC ecto-glow announcement. Two huge properties join forces (gotta build 'em all). One huge Shredder (bro lifts). But bigger than ALL of those, is the unexpected parcel of absolute joy sent by our favourite Canadian, the one and only Colin Betts. This has to be seen (heard?) to be believed. In spite of some truely awful postage costs, comes so many gifts filled with attention to detail, insight, humor and most importantly, love. Colin - a huge thank you!

We are a couple of members down today so yes, it's a Lisa episode. Scot and Frank take the wheel to look at a new Origins reveal, some Latest Scores (where Scot goes BIG) but mainly wax on/off about the finale of Cobra Kai. Did they stick the landing or sweep the leg? How was Anthony Mackie's first solo run as Captain America? Hoe tough is it to integrate two cats into the same space? All these un-expected questions and more await!
