Podcasts about Funko

(Originally recorded 07/16/25)   We are a week out from SDCC 2025 and we wanted to take a look at what we were looking forward to this year. As it turns out, not much. Stephe is having a week of death by a thousand cuts. Bruce saw Superman.  Stephe didn't. Stephe also hasn't seen Stick. So, we moved on to the Con talk. Neither of us is especially jazzed about this year's batch of exclusives.  We go into pretty great detail about why. Stephe is especially down on Funko's offerings.  In fact, in this episode we get the long awaited Funko Heel Turn from Hall of Famer. We talk about Adventures in the Secondary Market and what items from that end of the spectrum we may be hunting.  Etrigan, I'm looking at you. Stephe hits us with more of his new "Casual Villainy" vibe. Of course, we played "What's on Your Desk?"  This episode's edition caused Bruce to recall a game from his childhood. Enjoy and we'll catch you in SD next week.

Thrilljoy is in the news again, and not for the right reasons! We break it all down and give our take on the Thrilljoy Frodo PIX 1 of 1. However, they recovered very quickly by revealing their AMAZING SDCC lineup! In other news, Funko has already fired their CEO, Cynthia Williams, only a little over a year since they hired her! Collecting is the Way! Now, Let's Chat!

Chris & Matt take the roads less travelled from Canberra to Townsville (via Silverton), as they trek an impressive 3500 - 4000km's using as many Tennis Balls & tricks as they can muster! Then we change gears & guide the chat towards another round of The Team! This time being based around the Trio of Good-Guys Properties that centre around Land, Sky & Water - Thundercats, Silverhawks & Tigersharks!

Welcome back to A Podcask of Amontillado, where we delve into the dark, dreadful, and terrifying parts of the world. Some monsters come with weapons, or with masks. Some even come with extra hands, heads, and 18 points of articulation! It all depends on which company has the license, and what they can stuff into the box, dear Connoisseurs, when they make those wonderful horror toys! Erin and Gary are joined by toy and horror fan Dave West, the Phantom Troublemaker, of the Needless Things YouTube channel & the Audible Interlude podcast to discuss the world of horror toys and collectables! Listen in as they discuss the history and evolution of horror toys, speculation vs fact, being a completist, what separates a toy vs a collectable, elements of play, how to get started & find that piece you're after, the stickiness of licensing, how there needs to be more victims, what factors into deciding what to buy, accessory overload, navigating Ebay & toy shows, favorite pieces, the looseness of the Friday the 13th license, and the power of FOMO.

Are companies pursuing frictionless experiences at the expense of truly understanding what problems they're solving?Join hosts Chuck Moxley and Nick Paladino as they talk with Mehdi Rizvi, a digital transformation expert who began his career in operations and supply chain before pivoting to customer experience. Mehdi reveals eye-opening insights about the disconnect between departments in large organizations, where siloed KPIs create fractured customer journeys—like a luxury retailer who successfully drives traffic to their website and store but fails to provide basic product specification sheets when customers are ready to buy a $30,000 item. He challenges the common approach to AI adoption, explaining that most companies haven't even mastered basic analytics or data warehousing but are blindly applying AI without clear use cases. Throughout the conversation, he emphasizes that creating a truly frictionless experience requires meticulous attention to operational details and understanding the end-to-end customer journey.Main Takeaways from this episode:Start with foundations — Before implementing technology solutions, thoroughly map your current processes, understand customer journeys, and identify real problems rather than pursuing shiny objects.Connect the dots — Break down silos by ensuring people, processes, and technology work together across departments, as frictionless experiences cannot be created within isolated teams.Make simplicity intentional — Simple customer experiences like Amazon's two-click returns don't happen by accident; they result from intensive work to map and optimize every touchpoint, especially when things go wrong.Want more tips and strategies to create frictionless user experiences?

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.
