This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we recap our attendance at the Adelaide Mega Toy Fair event. This annual event promotes itself for its long running campaign; but with new organisers this year, how did it actually go? We chat towards what we spotted, what we think needs to be improved & what we scored!! Spoiler alert: Pub Lunch & making a day of it with great friends, is always the overall highlight!! Then Trent does an awesome Toyline Retrospective on the early 80's franchise that was: Blackstar! With a Filmation Cartoon airing first in 1981; then a corresponding Toyline from Galoob in 1983! Featuring the fight between our Hero: John Blackstar against the Evil Ruler: Overlord on the Planet Sagar. This Toyline & franchise actually has more ties to Masters Of The Universe than one may think.... There are some EPIC Beasts, questionable modes of transport & the incredibly sort after Ice Castle Playset - this Franchise really tried hard & its interesting to think in a sliding doors parallel reality - could this have been a more popular franchise than Masters Of The Universe?! Then rounding out the episode, we squeeze a quick round table, around some of our Latest Scores!

Join me for a special episode of The Collector Car Podcast as we go behind the scenes at the 47th Annual Cincinnati Concours d'Elegance to uncover the remarkable stories behind some of this year's most memorable entries. First up is a true time capsule: an unrestored 1967 Pontiac GTO that still wears its original paint, interior, and even its factory-installed exhaust. We chat with the owner about how this muscle car survived the decades unmodified—and the joy of preserving history over polishing it. Next, we step back into the elegance of the classic era with a stunning 1931 Packard 840 Individual Custom Eight Dietrich Convertible Sedan. Its caretaker shares how this pre-war masterpiece, one of the rare Dietrich-bodied Packards, was found, revived, and remains a rolling tribute to American coachbuilding excellence. From timeless elegance to raw performance, we then meet the owner of a rare TVR Sagaris, a wild, hand-built British sports car that's as exotic as it is misunderstood. Learn what it's like to live with this fiberglass rocket and why it steals attention wherever it goes. Finally, we hear the heartwarming story of a 1961 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II, still in the hands of the same family that bought it new. With tales of weddings, family road trips, and quiet Sunday drives, this Silver Cloud is more than a car—it's a living heirloom.

That is why the new State Department started out with only five employees while the Treasury Department had 40. When Alexander Hamilton became the nation's first Secretary of the Treasury, he immediately began to prepare a schedule of tariffs, along with excise taxes on such commodities as alcohol and tobacco. The Constitution forbids taxing the exports of any state, and so American tariffs have always been laid only on imports. Collectors were named for each port, and these were considered plum jobs because the collector got to keep the money, earning interest on it, until it was forwarded to the federal government a few times a year. Hamilton's tariffs, along with the refunding of the national debt and the establishment of a central bank, transformed the American financial situation. By the end of the 1790s, the U.S. had the best credit rating in Europe, its bonds selling over par. By 1800, federal revenues, a mere $3.7 million in 1792, had nearly tripled to $10.8 million. About 90 percent of that revenue came from tariffs—a ratio that wouldn't change much, except during the Civil War, for more than a century. *** Hamilton's tariffs had been solely for the purpose of raising re...

In this segment, Leighton Sheldon of Just Collect joins Jeremy, Joe, and Mr. Minty to dig deeper into PSA's recent survey, exploring how its upcharges, proposed services, and data strategies could be paving the way toward an IPO. The conversation covers potential implications of Collectors going public, the psychology of new offerings like high-res imaging and PSA-branded sleeves, and PSA's expanding retail footprint—highlighted by its first in-store presence at the new Burbank Sports Cards megastore. Leighton shares his thoughts on how PSA's access to submission data could create powerful tools for collectors and dealers alike, while Steve and Joe weigh in on the growing shift toward vaulting cards and trading entirely within PSA's ecosystem. The conversation closes with a lively discussion on vintage card collecting and the rise of eye appeal grading, including the upcoming launch of Eye Appeal Inc. They debate whether eye appeal is becoming too expensive for the average collector, and what happens when aesthetics start to outweigh technical grade. A rich, forward-looking discussion on how innovation, investment, and instinct are shaping the hobby.

Issued on BBC LP in 1979, The Rent Collectors is still often overlooked which is a bit unfair. Although given of a slight plot - not unusual for a Goon Show! - it has some marvellous set pieces and gags and an interesting guest performer in the shape of actor Bernard Miles. It also heralded the first official appearance of Little Jim whose catchphrase has delighted audiences ever since (it says here). We talk about Miles' appearance (which was very much last-minute), Sellers' ATV Saturday night specials scripted by Eric Sykes in which he portrayed the likes of Bloodnok & Willium, and we touch on Aldous Huxley, Marilyn Monroe and General Gordon (what a party THAT was!)This week's guest is performer and podcaster Ciarán Moffatt who posits that the episode is possibly two unfinished shows bolted together. Later the discussion turns to talk of inflatable dolls and manatees... something for everyone folks!

In this third part of Episode 268, Stephen Ho discusses the logistics of securing his $381K Ovechkin RPA Gold 8/8, revealing why he chose to keep it safely stored at the Fanatics Collect vault. The panel explores how ultra-rare cards are handled, from security considerations to the decision of whether to keep a prized card at home or in a professional vault. Spinotron and Karvin Cheung weigh in on the comparison between the Ovechkin RPA and iconic basketball RPAs from LeBron and Kobe, discussing why the Ovechkin card holds a unique place among sports memorabilia. The episode also touches on how mainstream retailers like Dick's Sporting Goods are entering the sports card space, creating more exposure for the hobby. The panel debates whether APEX collectors ever truly retire rare cards or if there's always a price that could pry them away. Stephen's unwavering stance on never selling the Ovechkin RPA gives a rare glimpse into the mindset of a dedicated high-end collector. Plus, Mikey Singer joins to preview the upcoming Montreal Expo and discusses the growing popularity of the show.

In this second part of Episode 268, the discussion continues with Stephen Ho, Spinotron, and Karvin Cheung as they delve deeper into the world of ultra high-end hockey cards. They explore the concept of "coffin cards" versus "commodity cards" and debate whether an RPA numbered to 99 can still be considered rare. Karvin shares his perspective on the significance of serial numbers, especially the cultural value of number 8 among Asian collectors. Spinotron discusses the global impact of the Asian collector community and how unique serial numbers, such as 8 of 8, influence the desirability of a card. The conversation also touches on the importance of game-used memorabilia in RPA cards, with Stephen explaining why the game-used Ovechkin RPA holds personal significance to him. Plus, the team debates whether Stephen's high-profile purchase might set a new benchmark for hockey card values.

Getting gallery representation isn't just about having great work—it's about preparation, professionalism, and relationships. At Gabba Gallery in Los Angeles, those values are at the heart of how things run. For more than a decade, owner and director Jason Ostro has led the gallery's mission to elevate emerging and mid-career artists, while curator and manager Elena Jacobson makes sure every show runs smoothly. Together, they bring a practical and deeply human perspective to the artist-gallery partnership. In this conversation, host Alyson Stanfield talks with Jason and Elena about: How they collaborate and divide responsibilities at Gabba Gallery. The qualities they look for in artists and what makes someone a strong fit. Common mistakes artists make when submitting or working with galleries. Why proper preparation makes a big difference in working with an artist (or not). How Gabba's 50/50 commission model works and what artists should know about gallery finances. Why relationships, networking, and trust are just as important as talent. Whether you're actively seeking gallery representation or want to better understand the dynamics behind the scenes, this episode offers honest insight into what it takes to succeed. Takeaway: Showing your work in a gallery isn't a handoff—it's a partnership. The more you understand the gallery's role, the stronger your relationship (and opportunities) will be.

Then we switch gears, and have a FULL-ON Spoiler lead discussion around the new Marvel Film that is: Thunderbolts - or New Avengers?!?

Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen What does your watch mean to you? For many, a timepiece is much more than a tool—it's a bridge between generations, a celebration of achievement, and a lasting legacy. In this episode of Inspired Money, we go beyond the basics of watch collecting to explore why watches become treasured family heirlooms, how to build collections that stand the test of time, and what every collector (from beginner to seasoned expert) should know in today's evolving market. If you're passionate about craftsmanship, storytelling, or the idea of passing something meaningful onto future generations, this episode is for you. Meet the Expert Panelists Paul Boutros is Deputy Chairman and Head of Watches, Americas at Phillips, where he helped build the auction house's powerhouse watch department after joining in 2014. A lifelong watch enthusiast with a background in electrical engineering, he led the record-breaking sale of Paul Newman's Rolex Daytona for $17.8 million, solidifying his reputation as one of the foremost experts in vintage timepieces. https://www.phillips.com Stephen Pulvirent is a writer, photographer, and creative director whose career has spanned leading roles at Hodinkee, Bloomberg, and Surface Media. Now based in Los Angeles, he is the founder of Rime & Reason, a creative agency helping global brands tell smarter, culture-driven stories, while also pursuing his passion for fine art photography. Stephen is also the cofounder of The Enthusiasts, a podcast and newsletter about the culture of watch collecting. https://stephenpulvirent.com Tariq Malik is the founder of Momentum, the Middle East's premier destination for vintage and collectible watches located in heart of Dubai's financial district. Driven by his deep passion for rare Day Date models, both as curator and collector he has developed a focused expertise that has made him a leading authority in this field. A lifelong enthusiast who began dealing Swatch watches at 16, Tariq has grown into a respected global voice in the vintage watch community while playing a pivotal role in establishing Dubai as a significant hub for vintage timepieces. https://momentum-dubai.com Dan Spitz is a third-generation Master Watchmaker and former lead guitarist of the award-winning thrash metal band Anthrax. With Swiss and American degrees in watchmaking and micro-mechanical engineering, Dan's illustrious career includes roles as the Head Master Watchmaker of Complications Specialist for Chopard, instructor, and juror for the prestigious GPHG awards. https://danspitz.com https://www.delraybeachwatchmaker.com Key Highlights: 1. Storytelling & Legacy in Watch Collecting Stephen Pulvirent explores why watches are more than just mechanical objects—“it's the stories that watches carry, the stories we tell ourselves about the watches we own and the roles they play in our lives that elevates them beyond ordinary, everyday things and makes them special objects.” Collectors aren't just building assets but capturing lifetimes of meaning that can be passed on for generations. 2. The Restoration Craft: Preserving Memories Dan Spitz demystifies the watchmaker's role in bringing legacy timepieces back to life. He shares moving stories of clients reconnecting emotionally with watches once thought beyond repair: “Some of them cry. You can see they want to reach out and hug me, and that's why I do what I do.” Restoration isn't just about function—it's about reviving memories and enabling the handover of treasures between generations.  3. Authenticity, Transparency, and Investment Smarts Paul Boutros provides insider guidance on buying for love, not just investment. He stresses the importance of authenticity, craftsmanship, and reputation: “Buy the best quality watches at the price level that you can afford… made by great brands who have pushed the state of the art.” Whether for legacy or potential appreciation, collecting watches well is about informed passion, not quick returns.  4. From Teenage Trader to Dubai Authority Tariq Malik recounts how Swatch trading as a teenager evolved into a global vintage watch business. His journey underscores the importance of transparency, relationship-building, and quality when buying or selling a timepiece. “Today it's a lot about the value, but the real richness is in the connection you have with the watch and its story.” Call-to-Action This week, pick one watch—whether you wear it daily or have it tucked away—and write down the story you want it to tell. Is it a symbol of achievement, a family heirloom, or an inspiration for the future? Share that story with someone you care about, or reflect on how your collection can become a living legacy.
