Playmates, the makers of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys since the 1980s, has hired a law firm to... defend the brand?! This after Playmates had the TMNT license revoked and given to Mattel. We don't know the details of the upcoming suit, but it might be Playmates trying to argue that they had a hand in creating the TMNT brand that we all know today and they could be trying to block Mattel from taking the license. Because, honestly, without TMNT Playmates doesn't have much else going for it. Speaking of Mattel, we talk about the rumor that Mattel and Hasbro might merge... again.

Late-night conversations with unseen ghostly children. A mysterious figure covered in glowing crystal-like colors on a rooftop in Pakistan. A haunted house where footsteps, jingling keys, and shadowy faces became part of everyday life. In this chilling edition of Jim Harold's Campfire, listeners share encounters that blur the line between imagination and something far stranger. From whispers in the dark to unexplained visitors that seem to linger just beyond sight, these stories unfold with the kind of eerie authenticity that sticks with you long after the episode ends. You'll also hear tales of impossible object disappearances, unsettling attachments, vivid messages from departed loved ones, and a deeply personal account of strange visions tied to a life-changing medical diagnosis. Some stories offer comfort and hope, while others raise unsettling questions with no clear answers. Whether it's a spirit trying to make contact, something following a traveler home, or a presence quietly watching from the shadows, this episode is packed with unforgettable moments that remind us why real stories are often the most terrifying of all.

The Playboy Mansion in the 1980s was in its absolute heyday. The sexual revolution had come full flower, drugs were largely regarded as harmless fun and every night offered a new adventure to a young man who'd never experienced anything like it. The Playboy Mansion of the 1980s belonged to a different world.The rules were different.The expectations were different.What people considered daring, outrageous, or perfectly normal would raise eyebrows today.That's part of what makes it worth revisiting.Recently, the Mansion and Hugh Hefner have been the subject of criticism and controversy.I don't dismiss anyone who had a negative experience there.But what I saw during my five years inside those gates was something more complicated — and far more interesting.Most of the people I knew from that time remember it with a certain affection.This book shows you why.INSIDE THE BOOK• What did the Playboy Mansion feel like after the parties ended and the house finally went quiet?• What were the Playmates really like when the cameras were gone?• What was the strangest request I ever received during a 3 AM shift?• Which famous star asked me to steal a bottle of top-shelf liquor… and then took me on a wild midnight ride through the streets of Los Angeles?• Which movie star's wife begged me to keep her company in the Grotto?• What really happened after 2 A.M.• The night the Playmates cried.• And the night that changed my life forever.I'll be interviewing guests and Playmates who were there at the time, and I'll illustrate my memories with exclusive photos, memos and personal notes that have never been published anywhere.It's 3:00 in the morning at the Playboy Mansion.The party is over.The celebrities have disappeared into guest rooms.A few Playmates wander into the butler's pantry, looking for company.And the strangest part of the night is just beginning.I spent five years working the night shift inside the most famous house in America.My job was to provide Hefner and his guests whatever they asked for.And as the hour grew later… the requests grew stranger.I'm turning those nights into a book right now.And this campaign is what determines whether it gets made the way it deserves to be.KickstarterInstagramRedditBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

With close comparisons of how they compare with their Vintage Counterparts & just what makes these figures so unique from anything that has come before! (Plus: a bit of a wish-list too!)

This is our Final ep of 2025 - see you in the New Year!!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's some silhouette guessing, flocking expensive kitties, a four pack that has Frank in trouble and a figure literally decades in the making. Then, Tis the season of giving as Tealo surprises us with gift box of goodies! And finally, we do the Secret Santa thing to prove that you CAN buy things for the collector with everything!

There is some great, weird and just plain crazy news to talk through today. Have Hot Toys jumped the shark? Is Ben about to drop $1500 on a Soundwave? More Mondo, more Blokees and of course, More Todd. Franks TMNT collection lacks a life size element - could this change soon? Then we compare the newly released Origins Fright Zone with the vintage one - which in itself gives Scot the fright of his life!

In honor of 420, its time to look at some of the weirdest, and wackiest toys ever designed. You really have to wonder, what were they on when coming up with some of this stuff. From poorly thought out labels to accidental nightmare fuel, child endangerment and even a pre-cursor to Siri - combined with, water? Then it's another edition of The Team from the wonderful world of TMNT - but ONLY the Turtle variants. And the choices are not as simple as you might think!

This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we are still sending 'Get Well' Cards to Trent, as he unfortunately misses this ep. But that won't slow us down; as Scot has a fantastic rundown on the Greatest Star Wars Movie - that never was! Yes - the infamous 'Shadows Of The Empire!' Famously worked into 'cannon' between the Original Films of: Empire Strikes Back & Return Of The Jedi. This wasn't just a Story or a Comicbook series - this was a Multimedia Project that also spanned into a Soundtrack, Video Games and of course a self-titled line of Toys! Was, or is this, the biggest Movie that never was?! Then keeping in the same similar theme of Movies; we transform into another round of The Team! With this round focusing on the Autobots that where released in 1986 (The Movie Year). This was a lot of fun! But we would love to hear some future ideas for The Team Comp - as we are starting to run out of ideas! Thanks, and as always - Enjoy!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
