Part 4 opens with a candid design Q&A: why some modern hockey releases skip the embossed Upper Deck logo, how chrome stock and foiling budgets force trade-offs, and what it's like to keep your collector passion while building products—and reading the comments. Then we shift into a lively roundtable on flippers: the value they add, the “predatory” edge cases, bounty culture, and the dreaded “flipper vortex.” We also hit a research detour on Bond Bread Jackie Robinson, the coming “oddball era,” and where star-power vs. mainstream truly sits. Highlights Emboss vs. chrome: cost math, insert priorities, and why not every set can have everything Working in cards without losing the love; taking criticism vs. finding real feedback Flippers: service vs. scalping, pumps, selling before owning, and game-theory tactics for buyers Bond Bread Jackie primer and a case for rising “oddball” interest Quick hitters: requests for RPAs in SPx, Original Six centennial sets buzz, and living-set/gamified ideas for families Recorded Live Sept 27, 2027 Learn more about your ad choices.

We shift from rookie-year labeling debates to the modern marketplace: the “Hot Potato Era,” flipping vs curating, and whether today's changes help sellers more than collectors. We also unpack Tiffany vs Star distribution, value obsession in hobby content, and the longevity vs greatness debate across eras. Highlights Tiffany vs Star cleared up: factory-set Tiffany vs team-bag Star, and why distribution rules complicate “rookie” status The Hot Potato Era: cards resold within days, instant “resell” buttons, and PSA-to-market liquidity without touching the card Flipper vs curator: moving inventory for profit vs actively upgrading a personal collection The content effect: “I spent $50,000” thumbnails, sensationalism, and how it shapes newcomers' expectations Value vs appreciation: the watch-collector analogy and Iowa Dave's prompt to rank your top cards by meaning, not money Private whales exist: the low-visibility collector with a T206 Wagner and why many serious collectors stay off-camera Are flippers good for the ecosystem? Card finders who surface hard-to-find PC targets across shows and regions Do hobby leaders want growth or guardrails? Protecting new entrants vs chasing headlines Longevity vs greatness: Kareem's MJ vs LeBron framing, Sandy Koufax's peak, Pujols first 10 vs second 10, and why era normalization matters Era traps in stats: dead-ball realities, ballpark dimensions, lowered mound, pitch-speed measurement changes, and why all-time lists are tricky “Everything helps sellers” debate: box prices, eBay authentication and resell tools, buyer's premiums vs collector benefits Counterpoints: liquidity is higher than ever, more leverage with auction houses, easier buying and selling for everyday collectors Open challenge: what could manufacturers, graders, and marketplaces do that truly benefits collectors without reducing profits?

This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we once again a team of Three! (This is becoming a pattern!) Trent is regrettably absent; but the show must go on! In the theme of Three; we have a Show & Tell Segment that we have each brought in a unique character; and we each compare said character with their Vintage Version; Vs a more modern interpretation.... Plus along with an almost latest-release version of them. A Three-Way Comparison! This was a fun segment to chat to; with some interesting points from the different eras. Then we do a bit of a time stamp on the ep; with our local Adelaide Comic & Toy Fair show only a week away; we discuss what we are potentially hunting for & such. (This will be fun to see if we actually find anything on our Wish-Lists or not!) Then the final segment is rounding out the Patreon Questions! With more fun queries that hopefully allow you all to get to know us a little better; plus how our Plastic Toy Addicted minds work! Enjoy!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
It has been a couple of weeks but the gang finally got back together to devote an entire episode to one of our favorite, and longest lived camera brands, the Ihagee Exakta. If you are familiar with the Exakta name, you probably know them as a maker of high end, but very quirky 35mm SLRs, however there were far more Exaktas produced in the 20th century using three different forms of film and nine different lens mounts. In Episode 98, the Camerosity Podcast hosts do their best to try and corral all those models and history into a single episode. Joining Anthony, Stephen, Paul, and Mike are returning and first time callers Daniel from Chicago, Eric Lorenz, Fernando Villava, Howard Sandler, Ira Cohen, Michael Boudreau, Mike Toppo, Pat Casey, and Phil Clark. We were unable to find an expert who could speak intelligently on the history and wide range of Exakta models made, so Mike did his best to cover the history, starting with how the company formed, and we go (mostly) in chronological order from the first 127 Vest Pocket Exaktas, the Night Exaktas, the early Kine Exaktas, into the Varex models, the redesigned VX1000 and Elbeflex models, and into the weeds with uncommon cameras like the Exakta Real, Exakta Twin TL, and some other Japanese and Chinese made models. In addition to the Ihagee Exakta, we also dedicate a bit of time to the Exakta's little brother, the Exa, covering that models strengths and weaknesses. We attempt to explain how the shutter on early Exas work, and Mike tells a story of a hard to find "System Exa" that's not even made by Ihagee at all. Many questions were asked with varying levels of good answers, including how many lens mounts can be found on an Exakta camera, how many different companies produced Exakta cameras, what is the best introduction to the Exakta lineup, and whether or not Exaktas are good for shooting or just for collecting. We even spend some time on the infamous Exaka with 400mm Kilfitt lens found in the Hollywood classic movie, Rear Window. And just to round it all off, we spend the end of the episode on the Topcon SLRs which use the Exakta mount, including whether all lenses are fully compatible between the two company's models. As always, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are influenced by you! Please don't feel like you have to be an expert on a specific type of camera, or have the level of knowledge on par with other people on the show. We LOVE people who are into shooting or collecting cameras, no matter how long you've been doing it, so please don't consider your knowledge level to be a prerequisite for joining! The guys and I rarely know where each episode is going to go until it happens, so if you'd like to join us on a future episode, be sure to look out for our show announcements on our Camerosity Podcast Facebook page, the Camerosity Discord server, and right here on mikeeckman.com. We usually record every other Monday and announcements, along with the Zoom link are typically shared 2-3 days in advance. The last several episodes of the show have been wonderfully exciting and informational. We've had a huge number of guests, many of whom are first time callers who joined a long list of people who have contributed to this show. And while all the hosts enjoy chatting with all of you, we haven't had an episode to ourselves in a while, so for Episode 99, we are not taking any callers. We want to spend this time to get caught up on what we've been doing, share with you some of the private discussions we have behind closed doors, but mostly, we're looking for an episode that's easier to edit. Don't worry though, for the next, next episode, we hit triple digits, episode number 100. It gives me chills just typing that here. We will be looking for something special for our centennial episode and once we know what that is, and what date we are recording it, we will be sure to let you all know! Until then, Episode 99 will be recorded sometime in early October.

How do you move from showing your art in group exhibitions to building a loyal circle of collectors who not only buy your work but champion it? In this conversation, we dive deep into the lived experience of an artist who has done exactly that.

host: Alyson Stanfield Artists thrive on creative expression, but that same impulse can scatter your marketing. Without consistency, collectors are left confused about who you are and what you stand for. In this solo episode, I share why identity comes before design, what goes into a brand kit, and how it saves time while building trust. Your next collector is just one connection away. Make it a memorable one. ✨ HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 When artists relied on printed packets 02:40 Why tactile marketing materials still matter today 05:40 The tough love: artists aren't designers (and why that matters) 08:00 Why your Identity — with a capital “I” — comes first 10:20 What a brand kit includes and how it helps 12:00 The pitfalls of DIY and how we can give you support in Essentials 13:40 Wrapping up: identity, design, and consistency in action
To grow your art career, you don't need one gatekeeper, you need a creative ecosystem. Nobody´s career can grow in isolation, everyone needs champions - Curators, Writers, Collectors, Funders, Peers, Producers, Family and Friends.

Ceri shares how to spot your artworld champions in the wild, connect with them and start building your own support network today. Ready to take action? Start the Unlock Your Artworld Network self-paced course today and learn how to build the connections that will sustain your art and your career - https://cerihand.com/courses/unlock_your_artworld_network/ KEY TAKEAWAYS Your champions are the people who help you move forward. They're not always famous or powerful, but they do offer guidance, feedback, introductions and advocacy. Amira found new champions and opportunities by mapping out who supported and wrote about artists she admired, then reaching out to them herself, in a genuine, thoughtful way. Map out your current champions, who's helped you so far, who's in your corner, who you've been meaning to reconnect with Choose three areas you want to grow in and let your champions help you to do that. BEST MOMENTS “Let's get into the nuts and bolts, because this is how the art world really works, and how your work gets seen, shared and supported.” “ When one door's stuck shut, a champion might just crack open a window.” “Think of your networks as your ecosystem. They don't have to be fancy or formal. They can be a group of artists visiting shows together, a creative co-working space, a book group, an online course or coaching membership like mine.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.
