Obi-Wan Kenobi, Obi-Wan Kenobi (if you know, you know). Joined once again by our resident expert from the Star Wars Collectors Archive, Ron Salvatore gives a fascinating insight into the origins of Leia Organa in Bespin Gown, which leads to a really interesting fact on Blue Snaggletooth and Bossk.  He also drops hints about what Leia card art "brings out the Lando in him"! Mark Andrews and Jamie Acott from the Variant Villains give us a great rundown of Leia Endor variations.  A really interesting insight into the world of variations which is explained in a really digestible format.  These guys really know their stuff with regards to the figures and the accessories.

Is there anything more exciting than an amazing toy find? Whether it's a Blue Snaggletooth, totes full of hundreds of modern and vintage figures, or even the rare chance to own a Rocket-Firing Boba Fett prototype, we all have at least one story about a really memorable find, and it's always exciting to hear ones from our fellow collectors. In fact, trading tales of toy pickups is one of the best parts of our hobby. The second part to Carlisle's Toys For The Ages Expo Weekend covers Saturday's show, from the time leading up to its opening to shopping during the early bird and general admission times, to lunch with Carlisle's own Steve Rensi, and finishing the week afternoon hanging out with friends and collectors. The Toys For The Ages Expo was one of the most enjoyable toy weekends in a long, long time. The show boasted more than fifty vendors, who brought an incredible mix of toys and collectibles spanning the past five decades. Join host David Quinn as he reports from Saturday's show and talks to vendors, shoppers and collectors as they share some of their incredible toy finds from over the years, in a new series for the podcast, titled “Amazing Finds.” The Toys For The Ages Expo Website: https://www.toysfortheagesexpo.com/ Toys For The Ages Expo Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/toysfortheagesexpo November's upcoming Pasadena Toy Expo in Maryland: https://www.pasadenatoyexpo.com/ And if you enjoy Star Wars: Prototypes and Production, please: 1.

A chat with Matt Helt, Nate Cohn, and Matt Smith of Bonehawk as well as fans Ramone, Chris, Wes, James, Curt, Mike, Michelle, Louis, and Terbly. We talk about how the fans fell in love with the awesome grooves of Bonehawk. Our conversation wanders into our thoughts on their incredible new album, Iron Mountain. We journey into stories of epic sea quests, recording at Ghetto Records, awkward moments in rock, Record Store days at Green Light Music, Pizza and much more.Are You Down with the Bonehawk?We started off with the fans and how they became fans of Bonehawk. Ramone kicked things off saying he learned about Bonehawk from Chris who runs the outstanding Kalamazoo record store called GreenLight Music. As Ramone describes, when Chris wants to tell you about a band you might dig, his catchphrase is “Dude!, You down with…”. In this case, “Dude! You down with the Bonehawk?”Ramone’s first encounter with the band was actually after they had played at the Pyramid Scheme in Grand Rapids with Valient Thor and Nashville Pussy. Turns out that Trans-Siberian Orchestra was playing the same night. Ramone and Chris made it over to the Pyramid Scheme, but missed Bonehawk. However, he did get to meet the guys, catch future shows, and along with Chris are big time fans.Awkward MomentsSpeaking of the Nashville Pussy show, Matt Helt talked about meeting Blaine during load in. Evidently, Blaine was enjoying a Subway sandwich when Matt says “Hey! What’s up man?”. Matt got the long stare with no reply until Matt awkwardly walked away. I can speak from experience, that I’ve felt the awkward goofiness of meeting someone you admire and totally feeling like a dork.Chris meets BonehawkChris discovered Bonehawk through a long standing friendship with former guitarist Chad Houts. Chad brought out Bonehawk’s stellar debut album Albino Rhino to GreenLight Music. Which as an FYI, this monster album has been re-released on vinyl. It is definitely worth being in your collection if you dig big grooves, guitar harmonies, and burly riffs. Chris is a staunch supporter of local music and in particular loves the music of Bonehawk. The new album, Iron Mountain, has been on display at the front counter and selling well.Many new Bonehawk fans are discovering the band through Chris’s praise of the band.Killer Music and Merch is EssentialIn addition to killer music, Bonehawk excels at killer merch. Ramone shared a story of getting Bonehawk booked on the Kalamazoo RibFest featuring Blue Oyster Cult. Bonehawk destroyed the stage and then proceed to setup a merch booth featuring a million different t-shirts, koozies, records, and condoms (ok, condoms are an exaggeration, but you get the idea)Meanwhile, the legendary Blue Oyster has a single shirt in two sizes. To say the least, Bonehawk’s music and merch drew in a slew of fans. This is how you create a buzz: great music and great marketing.Wes and James meets BonehawkChad Houts also brought Wes into the Bonehawk fold. He met Matt Helt and they shared cold beverages and cheese balls. Wes’s first encounter with Matt Helt and Nate was actually pre-Bonehawk when they were in a band called Nobody’s Favorite. Wes kept up the friendship with the guys and remains a fan of their music today.James got into Bonehawk through his friend Max in Ann Arbor (Hey, I know that guy :)). They caught the band in Hamtramck with Bison Machine and Kommander. For those who love heavy stoner riffs played with passion, this was an outstanding line-up. This one show hooked James and he’s been following the band religiously. James feels the new Iron Mountain album is one of the best rock albums of 2020. A complete Pure Michigan rock journey.Seaquest to find the RockBonehawk put out a shirt at the end of 2019 with their name and underneath it an image of an iconic landscape just off the coast of the Thumb area of Michigan called Turnip Rock. Get it, turn up rock. James took a voyage in search of the rock featured on Bonehawk’s shirt. He captured an image of himself with the shirt at Turnip Rock which the band enjoyed. If you get a chance, take a kayak out to Turnip Rock and bring along some Bonehawk jams for fun.Curt and Lewis Discover BonehawkActually, Curt is a long time friend of Matt’s going back to school days. Back when they would rock some Mario Kart. Curt actually jammed with Matt in his first band. While Curt isn’t playing much himself these days, he is stoked that Bonehawk has turned up the volume on the Michigan music scene.We found out that Louis is a brand new fan. He saw the picture with Nate advertising this episode of Fans With Bands and decided to check it out. You see Louis is a big fan of Nate’s other band Mustard Plug. They are a legendary ska punk band. Louis is happy to support local music and get into the music of Bonehawk.Bonehawk BeerLouis mentioned that working up in Ishpeming at Cognition Brewing, there isn’t a lot of live music (even without a pandemic going on ). However, Cognition plans to expand in 2021 and bring in some live music. We talked a bit about the band collaborations that Cognition has done with Burial Oath and Arctic Sleep. The brewing team has a love for heavy music and beer, so I’m thinking that a Bonehawk beer would be a perfect way to celebrate the pure Michigan rock fury of the band.Iron MountainThe new album from Bonehawk called Iron Mountain is stacked with monumental rock music. The songs flow like a rapid river and take you on a trip through their patented guitar harmonies, crunching riffs and rhythms. We talked a bit about how this new album reflects the growth and solid foundation the band has achieved in their sound and songwriting.While they love the first album Albino Rhino, the new album is a more cohesive whole. Matt indicates that Nate’s musical approach has helped Bonehawk become a better band with greater sonic focus. Nate adds that each album is completely different with Iron Mountain being grittier, deeper, and slightly more nuanced.Bonehawk at the LiveryWhile the band can’t tour to support Iron Mountain, Bonehawk is still reaching out to the fans virtually. Their latest project is a live performance recorded at The Livery in Benton Harbor. Nate shared that the band has been rehearsing and writing new music with new members Matt Smith and Cam Mammina.Music during a PandemicNate mentioned that putting out a new album during a pandemic isn’t optimal given they can’t tour. However, Ramone pointed out that this year has been a boon for new music. As we talk, it becomes clear that we all feel that music has been sustaining during this period of crisis. Chris added that while Green Light Music has had to pivot to shorter hours and fewer days open due to pandemic mitigation tactics, their sales are equal or even slightly better than the previous year.Another boon to Green Light Music has been the extended series of Record Store Days this year. Bonehawk teamed up with Green Light Music to sponsor giveaways for each of the record store days. This has helped both the store and the band to reach even more music fans. Yet another testament to the power of music, marketing, and collaboration.TerblyWe swung the conversation back to Terbly to get his story on becoming a Bonehawk fan. Terbly self-identifies as a “Matt Helt Groupie”. He has known Matt since childhood. He has followed his musical exploits starting with a 14 year old Matt playing in McCurly’s Caterpillars. Terbly’s favorite show was seeing Bonehawk open up for Local H at Shakespeare's pub. This was yet another awkward band encounter, this time with Local H. Ghetto RecordersJames asked about Bonehawk’s experience working at Ghetto Recorders in Detroit. Matt and Nate had actually gone there with their prior band Nobody’s Favorite. They really enjoyed working with Jim Diamond. His studio featured a ton of vintage effects and amps. I can imagine it was a candy store for any recording musician. They came back to Ghetto Recorders with Bonehawk to record Albino Rhino and a split EP (with Kingnomad) for Ripple Music. Jim was closing down the Ghetto Recorders and this was the second to last session. While there, Matt noticed an old Bic turntable that was the same turntable that his parent’s used to have when he was a kid. He bought the turntable from Jim and Matt’s mom found that she still had the original owners manual. Quite a fun find and a great memory that keeps giving with every spin of a disc.Second Coming of HeavyTalking about the recordings at Ghetto Recorders led to a discussion about the music recorded on the split. Matt Helt said he doesn’t really enjoy the songs on the split EP. While he had no issues with the recording that Jim did, he felt the band missed the mark. He’s even thought about potentially re-recording them.Chris and Ramone were quick to point out that they feel the songs on the EP are some of their favorite Bonehawk tunes. Matt felt that perhaps he had some issues that he just hadn’t been able to let go of. We all offered our encouragement to treat this as a therapy session and just let it all go.Mike Reviews Iron MountainFans Mike and Michelle joined our chat to share how they became Bonehawk fans. Mike is the stellar drummer of the now defunct Blue Snaggletooth. Mike and Matt met at the record release show for Albino Rhino. Apparently Mike was staking out his territory in the club for his drums. Matt came by and said “Dude. Just chill out. It will all work out” in his easy going manner. Ironically, both Matt and Mike are two sides of the same coin. Both shared that they are a bit OCD when it comes to setting up for a show, but demonstrate (or conceal) that stress in their own loveable ways. This meeting has led to a lasting friendship.Mike mentioned he had received an advanced copy of Iron Mountain and offered to share his notes with us. Overall he loves the album, so there wasn't any criticism to level. Except for the placement of the last song “Lake Of The Clouds” which Mike felt made for an anti-climatic ending. However, the rest of us felt that the placement was perfect. It just goes to show that everyone is entitled to their opinion and we can agree to disagree on occasion.Wrap it up with PizzaYou’ll want to listen to the end to hear about what makes for a perfect Bonehawk pizza.

The first part (Episode 7.1) aired on 3/24/16.Talking about pushing boundaries.Chris messes with form a lot, specifically the point-crawl.Problem: "Where are these things in the hex?" Instead of "What's in the hex?" the point-crawl strips out the empty space and instead moves between interesting things. (Then Adam kind of missed the point and got corrected by Chris)Alex pushes boundaries in art.A common thread in this conversation (but that Adam doesn't realize until the end) is that better decisions, better innovations and better gaming happens when we are authentic and genuine to our own thoughts and experiences. Alex: "One of the things that I love about the OSR is that it's an aesthetic movement as much as a movement about mechanics." [Paraphrase]"Where is the innovation in the OSR?" was a trolly thread that circulated on G+ in the beginning of 2016. While the folks behind that thread claimed they asked their question in good faith, they promptly shut down many OSR innovators who contributed to the conversation.Adam: "The innovation & boundary pushing in the OSR isn't about the rules, it's about form, structure and content."Donn seems to experience a degree of dissonance when he exposes himself to too many rule sets.Alex: "Boundaries are pushed in the community at large as a hive mind."Adam: "It's as much incubation as innovation."Our favorite boundary-pushers:Alex - James Raggi & Lamentations of the Flame Princess lineChris - Hydra Coop stuff, especially Jason Sholtis's Operation Unfathomable, and Patrick Stewart & Scrap Princess's Broken Fire RegimeDonn - Zzarchov Kowalski's Scenic Dunnsmouth & Thulian EchoesAdam - Jason Lutes's Perilous Wilds, Zak S.'s Red & Pleasant Land and VornheimWho are we most excited about their next creation?Alex - Zzarchov KowalskiChris - Gus L.

Long story.Donn loves dice.Tim's most stolen mechanic: from Questlandia - put narrative spaces on index cards, then have the players determine how they connect.Adam steals -- from King of Dragon Pass -- a mechanism for defining a group of people based on the myths they tell themselvesNoah -- from Adventures in Oz -- conflict doesn't need to be deadly. The focus on murder is problematic as a dad. Why all the death?Noah -- from Gangbusters -- non-cooperative narrative? Characters not working toward the same ends.Adam hates rewarding players for rolling well (this happens in many old school games in their original form; players are already rewarded for rolling well by succeeding).Adam steals dice success distributions from HeroQuest. The good one, not the RPG.Noah & Adam both use lots of ApocalypseWorld-inspired dice mechanics.Donn uses reaction rolls all the time. Adam suggests you pay attention to the one Jobe Bittman put in the Monster Alphabet.Adam suggests "Jaquaying" dungeons.Then it got all murky.DungeonWorld instincts are cool.Tim -- Marvel Superheroes -- award characters in-game benefits for enacting character motivations/beliefs/etc.Thanks for joining us for this episode of Drink Spin Run. If you like what you've heard, share us with your friends, leave us an iTunes review or send us an email at dsr@kickassistan.net.

Stanley is this episode's Waldo.Our Guests+Tim Callahan+Stephen NewtonShow Notes after the jumpGuest NotesTim CallahanMoon Dice Games & CrawljammerStephen NewtonThick Skull AdventuresShow Notes(If you listen closely, you can hear Adam's baby Stanley making cute little sounds throughout the episode.)Stephen expressed what pretty much is the best KS advice: "Don't ask for money until it's at least 90% done."More from Stephen:"...[W]rite the thing, outline the story..."Figure out the channels (Print? Pdf?)Later on, Stephen says that you should get into print even if it's Print On DemandPOD means you don't have to do any warehousing/fulfillment/handling distributorsPOD also makes it easier for overseas shipping customersWhat's your format? (Letter? "Digest?" - "digest" size is really half-letter)Adam adds: "your audience isn't everyone"Adam wants to see print/pdf bundles to work the opposite way that they work now: if you buy the PDF, you should get a discount on the print product. [Note: "One Bookshelf" or "OBS" is the company that owns & operates the websites RPGNow and DriveThruRPG. Most of the panel members use these terms interchangeably because they are.] One of Adam's reasons for self-publishing is that he wanted to continue to own his work. Most publishers own the work that is produced under contract. LIGHTNING ROUND: The panel all agrees that if you buy something in print, you should get it in pdf for free. If you can think of a way to make this happen, let us know your strategies!Thanks for joining us for this episode of Drink Spin Run. If you like what you've heard, share us with your friends, leave us an iTunes review or send us an email at dsr@kickassistan.net.
