Well, we finally say goodbye to the Toys For Games podcast, as we move on to another chapter...
Episode 127 might still be hungover from the Thanksgiving holiday, but we're back with a roundup of all the news from the toys-to-life genre since our last show!
First we start with our normal banter, and do some VERY SPOILERY movie reviews. Eventually we get to the meat and potatoes of the show, starting off with the reincarnation of the Disney Infinity art style. We then cover Skylanders franchise news, before putting an official end to LEGO Dimensions. Finally, we break down the latest in amiibo, including the most anticipated cereal to date!
In the back half of the episode, we read through all the tweets for the #CommunityQuestion, and pick a winner for the #ResponseOfTheWeek giveaway. Finally, we wrap up with emails from the great folks in the community, doing our best to answer all questions thrown our way!

Episode 126 is an episode we never wanted to do, but we've seen coming for quite some time. Unfortunately, the cancellation of LEGO Dimensions is all but a formality now, despite the formal announcement probably never happening.
First we start with our normal banter, to lighten the mood a bit. Then we get right into breaking down the most recent story of LEGO Dimensions being killed off quietly without any fanfare - just as we have been predicting for months now. We wrap up the news with all the upcoming amiibo releases, such as Fire Emblem, Super Mario Odyssey, and Zelda: Breath of the Wild figures!
In the back half of the episode, we read through all the tweets for the #CommunityQuestion, and pick a winner for the #ResponseOfTheWeek giveaway. Finally, we wrap up with emails from the great folks in the community, doing our best to answer all questions thrown our way!

Episode 124 is a very special episode, as we toss all of the toys-to-life news aside and get down to the really important issues and topics ... Pokemon!

For a majority of the episode, we talk about all the highs and lows of Pokemon GO, which is still going strong. We also touch upon Pokemon Rumble U, and Pokken Tournament DX as well.

Episode 123 was a long time coming, but thanks to the summer drought of news and information, as well as impossibly busy schedules, the wait for this episode was much longer than anticipated. Never fear, however, because we're back, and possibly better than before!
After the normal banter that starts every show, we get down to business. First, we talk about - shockingly - Disney Infinity, and more of what could have been. Then we laugh about the unpredictable Skylanders marketing team. We then break down the upcoming release of Wave 9 for LEGO Dimensions, and what that means for the franchise. And finally, we talk about the news regarding amiibo, including the newly announce Shovel Knight amiibo!
In the back half of the episode, we read through all the tweets for the #CommunityQuestion, and pick a winner for the #ResponseOfTheWeek giveaway. Finally, we wrap up with emails from the great folks in the community, doing our best to answer all questions thrown our way!

Episode 122 is our first show since the big amiibo release and Beasts of Balance Kickstarter launch, but all we really want to talk about tonight is Jason's trip to Southern California for the D23 Expo and Disneyland vacation!
First, Jason breaks down the highs and lows of his travel, his time at the parks, and the insanity that was the D23 Expo. When we get down to the news of the industry, we skip over Skylanders and LEGO Dimensions, as neither franchise has anything to report on. We jump over to amiibo, and break down the recent release wave of figures. Then we break down the newest tidbits from Lightseekers. And finally, we break down the incredible Beasts of Balance Kickstarter campaign, which they are totally crushing, and we plead ... #ReleaseTheJellyfish!

When we get to amiibo, it's time to celebrate the return of the amiibo madness and what this means for the entire genre!

Episode 119 is recorded right on the heels of E3 2017, where tons of toys-to-life figures and games were shown off and discussed, getting the community of collectors excited all over again. While we weren't down in LA to experience the fun first hand, we hope this episode will still do justice to previous E3 episodes we've done!
First we talk about Skylanders, which got a mention from the big boss of Activision himself, giving some hope to the fanbase. We discuss the E3 presence for LEGO Dimensions, and what their continued silence of Year 3 might mean. We break down the 13 new amiibo announced by Nintendo, which was plenty of excitement for all fans. We touched on some news regarding Beasts of Balance and Lightseekers, and then ran down everything we know about the newly announced toys-to-life game from Ubisoft, STARLINK!
