This Week on the Toy Power Podcast; we are giving our thoughts & experiences from our recent visit to the Annual Adelaide Mega Toy Fair! Kicking off with our forceful entry into the event! Scott as the New Organiser has done a fantastic job with table spacing, Real Pop-Culture Cars as an attraction & what kind of things that where on offer for Sale; plus of course our SCORES! We each have quite a diverse range of goodies that came home with us; but as always it was absolutely awesome to socialise with so so many people! Then we begin our Review of the New Masters OF The Universe Film! Kicking off with high level non-spoiler thoughts of the Movie. Tales of Trent & Ben seeing an Advanced screening of the Film - with sacrifices from our families to attend! Then; we dive in head first into a deep discussion that bounces all over the place which analyses the entire Movie - INCLUDING SPOILERS! We touch on everything from Characters, Lore, Tone, Easter Eggs, Credit Scenes; plus the things that don't quite merry up. We even have some of the Chronicles Action-Figures to touch on as well! Please get comfy for this extended episode; all the while celebrating Darren's Birthday too. Enjoy!!

Od premiery filmu "Skywalker. Odrodzenie" minęło 6,5 roku. Gwiezdne wojny od tego czasu nie były już takie same, a zastąpienie sensownych treści miałkim contentem stało się aż nadto wyraźne. Film Mandalorian i Grogu to wielki powrót Star Wars na kinowe ekrany, ale czy kontynuacja serialu w formie pełnometrażowego filmu ma w ogóle sens? Czy da się wskrzesić magię sprzed lat za pomocą kukiełek i słabego scenariusza? Przekonajmy się!

Steve and Nic celebrate their fifth podcast anniversary by bringing the New Yoda Chronicles to a close. This Endorian Life is a Nostalgic Star Wars Podcast from the Radio Meanwhile Network.
In this Sigma Review, Rick breaks down The Mandalorian & Grogu and why the film feels like a refreshing change for Star Wars. From its smaller standalone story and subtle use of nostalgia, to the stunning worldbuilding of Shakari, the soundtrack's cyberpunk-inspired tones, and the deeper issue of emotionally connecting with masked protagonists, this episode dives into what worked, what didn't, and why Star Wars may actually thrive outside the Skywalker saga. Rick also discusses Sigourney Weaver's role and her legacy as one of sci-fi's most iconic actors, while comparing The Mandalorian & Grogu to projects like Rogue One, Solo, and the original spirit of The Mandalorian series.

Star Wars Episode IX is often dismissed as a film made by committee, but with its constant on-set rewrites, loose improvisational style and hyperactive camera movement, it's very much a J.J.

Gefühlt vergeht kein Monat ohne eine neue Star Wars-Serie auf Disney+, doch das echte "Event-Kino-Gefühl" lässt seit Jahren auf sich warten. Nach dem Chaos der Sequel-Trilogie, unzähligen gecancelten Projekten und Serien, die das Fandom spalten, stellen wir uns heute die Frage: Kann Star Wars auf der großen Leinwand überhaupt noch funktionieren? In unserem Star Wars Talk blicken wir schonungslos auf die aktuelle Verfassung der weit, weit entfernten Galaxis. Wir diskutieren, ob Disney die Marke zur reinen Content-Plattform degradiert hat und ob Serien wie Andor die Regel oder doch nur die Ausnahme bleiben. Außerdem analysieren wir das gewaltige Beben hinter den Kulissen: Kathleen Kennedy geht, George Lucas-Schüler Dave Filoni übernimmt. Bedeutet das endlich den langersehnten Masterplan oder droht uns aus Angst vor Risiken jetzt eine endlose Nostalgie-Schleife? Wir debattieren die spannendsten Fragen der Community: Müssen wir die Skywalkers und das ständige Recyceln bekannter Figuren endlich ruhen lassen? Wird The Mandalorian & Grogu das Kino-Comeback retten? Und wäre ein radikaler Neuanfang – wie eine Verfilmung der "Knights of the Old Republic"-Ära fernab des etablierten Kanons – nicht genau das Risiko, das Star Wars jetzt dringend braucht?

Then wrapping up at the awe-inspiring "88mph Toys" which seemed to have everything!! Then we bring it back to the Studio; with an exciting Gift-Box from Matt; for us to open!

This week, MagicBands have been disappearing from shelves, wishes come true for some extra special super heroes, a former CEO is honored with a lifetime achievement award, we talk with Haley Clair about her legendary grandmother Harriett Burns and more! Please support the show if you can by going to https://www.dlweekly.net/support/. Check out all of our current partners and exclusive discounts at https://www.dlweekly.net/promos. News: The past couple of weeks, we had been seeing reports that MagicBands were becoming more and more difficult to purchase at the Disneyland Resort. Officials have now confirmed that Disneyland is ending on-property sales of MagicBand˖ Existing interactive features, like Batuu Bounty Hunters, will remain functional for current owners, however no new shipments are expected once stock sells out at the few remaining retail locations. This change is exclusive to Disneyland Resort, as MagicBand+ will continue to be supported and sold at Walt Disney World, on Disney Cruise Line, and via the Disney Store online. – https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/magicband-plus-disneyland-phase-out/ Star Wars fans can now head to the Star Wars Trading Post in Downtown Disney to create their own custom Galactic ID badges. For $15, fans can step into a specialized booth to choose their affiliation and have their photo printed on a unique, transparent plastic card that mimics the high-tech look from the films. The experience has become very popular! – https://www.micechat.com/435362-disneyland-hews-star-wars-land-awakens-vader-music-construction-more/ Disney has unveiled a “shriek peek” at its 2026 Halloween merchandise, featuring a massive collection of apparel, headwear, and home décor for the upcoming spooky season. Highlights include new “Create-Your-Own” headbands with mini plush characters, a Vampire Stitch plush, and a special collection inspired by the Haunted Mansion's tightrope walker. Exclusive designs for Oogie Boogie Bash were also shared. – https://disneyparksblog.com/products/shriek-peek-at-disney-halloween-merchandise-materializing-this-year/ In celebration of “Disney Week of Wishes,” the Disneyland Resort hosted the “Wishes Assemble” event, officially recruiting nearly 40 wish kids and their families into the ranks of the Avengers. These young heroes enjoyed a private party at the resort with special appearances by Marvel stars Anthony Mackie and Paul Bettany, followed by a day of “heroic” activities within the park. This special celebration highlights Disney's 45-year partnership with Make-A-Wish, focusing on creating life-changing memories for children with critical illnesses. – https://disneyparksblog.com/community-outreach/celebrating-disney-week-of-wishes-across-disney-experiences/ Former Disney CEO Bob Iger was recently honored with the inaugural WishMaker Lifetime Achievement Award during a special “Wishes Assemble” event at the Disneyland Resort. Presented by Make-A-Wish America, the award recognizes Iger's massive impact on the organization, specifically overseeing the granting of more than 110,000 wishes during his tenure. – https://disneyparksblog.com/community-outreach/celebrating-disney-week-of-wishes-across-disney-experiences/ To celebrate May the 4th, Walt Disney Imagineering has shared a behind-the-scenes look at the technical innovation used to create the hologram of Tohan Lege for Disneyland's “Shadows of Memory” show. Since true holograms don't exist, Imagineers combined specialized projection tricks and visual effects to capture the authentic, flickering aesthetic of a Star Wars transmission. This “lore-weaver” character marks a significant narrative expansion for Galaxy's Edge, anchoring the land's story further into the Skywalker legacy. – https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/hologram-star-wars-shadows-of-memory/ SnackChat: Returning Halloween Treats – https://www.laughingplace.com/disney-parks/disneyland-halloween-food-2026-returning/ Discussion Topic: Imagineer and Disney legend Harriet Burns with actress Haley Clair – www.imagineerharriet.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

When the Revolutionary War comes to South Carolina, veteran Benjamin Martin attempts to avoid the conflict but finds himself in the thick of things when events go disastrously wrong for his family and his home. Joining us to discuss this Roland Emmerich-directed historical drama is our good friend Chris Dohmen. Join us as we go boldly!
Today's guest is a prolific producer behind Sicko Mode, Broccoli, Bad at Love, Kiss Me More, Laugh Now Cry Later, First Class, and APT. — but whose real story isn't the catalog. It's how most of those songs happened by accident.A classically trained concert pianist who spent his teens grinding through Liszt and Prokofiev knuckle-busters, Rogét quietly became one of the most important producers in modern pop and hip-hop — and almost none of it happened the way he planned.This is one of the more honest conversations about what mastery is actually for — what happens when a decade of preparation collides with a 9pm pull-up, a stock preset, and a flute sound turned on by accident. When the world keeps rewarding your simplest moves, who do you become?And The Writer Is... Rogét Chahayed!In this episode of And The Writer Is, we go deep on:Years of grinding Liszt and Prokofiev — and a first big check from four major triads on a fluteThe three-week run in 2016 that produced Broccoli, Skywalker, Bad at Love, and the seed of Sicko ModeThe Mr. Miyagi era under Doctor Dre's right-hand man — and a pajama meeting at Dre's hidden studioSicko Mode — made on a stock preset in a closet-sized vocal booth — and the moment he heard it open AstroworldKiss Me More — a 2-5-1 with a walk-down — and what jazz school actually trained him to doCo-executive producing Jack Harlow's album from 4pm to 4am for a year — and how First Class came togetherAPT. — the song he forgot about until Bruno Mars mentioned it at a friend's barbecueAnd much more...Hit subscribe and turn on notifications.

YOU ANSWER TO ME B-TCH TITLE CARD HERE In Episode 154, hosts Alyce and Laura have* the Mandalorian and Grogu and Maul. That's it. That's the episode. JK there are a few other things: The final trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu! (YouTube) If you don't want to watch the full 37-min video of Jon Favreau's appearance at CinemaCon, SWNN has a good breakdown here. Are you going to the May The Fourth preview screenings of Mando/Grogu? If so, you're lucky because tickets went fast! If you're into model making, Phil Tippett's creature shop, film effects and/or Star Wars ships, you'll probably enjoy this behind the scenes look at The Mandalorian and Grogu film with Adam Savage and Jon Favreau. Grain of Salt: there's a rumor swirling about a new 2D animated Star Wars series From “This is the Way” to “Have It Your Way”! Burger King's got The Mandalorian and Grogu stuff for kids and adults. Millennium Falcon meets Mando? Smuggler's Run is going to somehow incorporate The Mandalorian and Grogu? We don't get it, so hopefully more to come? (via SWNN) BooshkeeDO you even have an elbow? Recap on Tap - with SPOILERS! Maul - Shadow Lord episodes 3-6 features the galaxy's Ugliest Lieutenant, Rook harshing on Maul's vibe at every turn, Looti Tooti, The Fart before he became a fart (presumably) and Two Boots providing no reassurance whatsoever in any situation Laura gets mad - no, stays mad - at how expensive things are Come for Happy Hour, stay for Alyce's young Boba Fett impression Apropos of Nothing: The phone strap Alyce asked about isn't available anymore, but this is kind of similar Twitter: @forcetoastpod | @sLeiaAllDay | @ShutUp_Laura Instagram: @forcetoastpod Bluesky: forcetoastpod.bsky.social Email: forcetoastpod@gmail.com Website: forcetoastpod.com *This podcast contains a sh!t ton of profanity and boozin.

While getting together to record an episode on Summer Blockbusters with Nick from NickFlix Podcast, we started a warm up discussion which turned into this. We had some good stuff to say and discuss prior to the main topic, having the Mando Summer movie in mind, our talk weaved in and out of summer blockbusters to our thoughts on the franchise as a whole when it comes to how the Mandalorian series is still connected to the Skywalker saga and more. Take a listen and tell us what you think. Thanks for listening. Remember, the Scarif Podcast is a proud founding member of the Red5 Network, and that's the scuttlebutt.

Justin and William witness more fraud in California, Calivicular already falling apart, and Luke Skywalker's sexuality. Justin also reviews Outcome.
In Episode 153, hosts Alyce and Laura are* going to the MAUL later, thank you for asking. Laura whips out the good sh-t for Happy Hour We made a Sally Ride error and every woman in STEM that left an indelible mark on the world rolled over in their grave… including Sally Ride, probably. The Mandalorian and Grogu is coming out in May, a few weeks after May the Fourth. You'd think that would be a good marketing tie in, yeah? Nope, Star Wars Day is all about Return of the Jedi this year for some reason. Maul about Maul! He's everywhere! In the news! On Disney+! Probably other places! Maul - Shadow Lord is getting a second season. Plus, Filoni talks Maul with Esquire. Protip: there's a great TLDR on SWNN. Jon Favreau will be at CinemaCon to get everyone hyped about the upcoming Mando movie (via Deadline) Grogu is the real star of this filmmaker roundtable Ben There, Done That! (patting ourselves on the back for that one) Stephen Soderbergh reacts to Lucasfilm's pass on his Ben Solo-centric film (BKMAG via Nerdist) In book news, Star Wars' new horror offering and, on the opposite end, an adult coloring book! Multitudes, Star Wars contains, hmmm? LEGO Smart Bricks continue to mystify the masses. Now Mark Hamill weighs in. We're back with Recap on Tap! Maul - Shadow Lord is officially here and we're diving into episodes 1 and 2 with a SPOILER discussion on all the old and new faces, cute lil guys and insane bad-@ssery abound!

Ben is still recovering so the three Musketeers are at it again. Scot takes us on a trip across the galaxy and comic book history as we look at what might just be the first ever comic book crossover super team. Avengers? Justice League? Never heard of em. Make mine: Defenders of the Earth. These guys are so old school, Scot has to explain where the term "Pulp" Action Heroes comes from! Going a little less further back in time, Trent debuts a new segment called "From the Archives" where we delve into the mind of 1990s Toyfare Magazine writers to see just what they were smoking. And much like the 90s itself, things are a little, funky. We also preview another new segment and some of our upcoming international travels! It's all happening!

In Episode 152, hosts Alyce and Laura learn* valuable lessons about 90s Nickelodeon theme songs and where the f-ck Tosche Station is! If there is one thing you take away from this podcast, it's that you are supposed to watch all 39 hours of Daredevil before you watch Born Again. Will Alyce's prediction/dream that Taylor Swift be cast as the voice of Grogu ever come true? Here's an update… (Gizmodo via Variety) Remember in our last episode when we asked, hey whatever happened to that one trilogy? From our lips to Penguin Random House's ears. Check out this article and the official synopsis for Reign of the Empire: Edge of the Abyss here. What TIME is it? Show time (show time), show time (show time)! Thanks, 2016 Bruno Mars. Speaking of time, they make mid-bougie Mando watches for men and not women. Some poor schmuck had to drill a bar into the deepest depths of the earth for our boy Adam Driver (via SWNN) Usually we regret asking for a man to mansplain something to us, but we kinda needed someone to explain Smart Bricks to us. Fortunately GamingBible was on it. Star Wars dropped the episode titles for Maul, but they did it on icky twitter, so here's a link to Star Wars News Net instead. You're welcome.

In this episode, I sit down with Don Bies – former Lucasfilm archivist and special effects artist at ILM – for a deep dive into his career and his time inside the Star Wars archive. Don takes me right back to his childhood in Chicago, where a viewing of the 1931 Frankenstein sparked a lifelong fascination with makeup effects and filmmaking . From experimenting with homemade prosthetics to building a full-size R2-D2, his early passion eventually led him to California. We talk about his first major break working on The Fly, where he contributed to several effects – many of which ended up on the cutting room floor, but gave him invaluable experience. From there, Don's path into Lucasfilm begins, starting with operating R2-D2 on commercials alongside Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and even George Lucas. That connection ultimately led to him working on the Lucasfilm archives. This is where things get really interesting. Don describes what it was like stepping into a warehouse full of original Star Wars props, models and documents – much of it undocumented and at risk of being lost or discarded . He shares stories of discovering key items like Darth Vader's helmet hidden in a crate, uncovering original manuscripts and audio recordings, and building one of the first digital catalogues of the collection. We also get into:His role in early Lucasfilm exhibitions and the growth of the archiveWorking at Skywalker Ranch and the unique creative environment thereThe transition period between Return of the Jedi and the Special EditionsWearing multiple costumes (including Boba Fett) during the Special Edition shootsThe reality of preserving film history inside a working production companyIt's a brilliant conversation that really captures a moment in time when Star Wars history could easily have been lost – and the people who helped save it.This podcast is completely independent and made possible by listener support.

We open on the Chimera f--kin'. In Episode 151, hosts Alyce and Laura enjoy* one last jaunt to Peridea, complete with TOE Fighters, Rebels Season 1 Ezra and Grand Admiral Cock a Doodle Blue! Let's catch up with Alyce's Marvel catch up. Catch up Inception! Speaking of, should we add a Marvel segment to our show when Daredevil comes back? What do we call it? Marvel Manor? Marvel, May I? Marvel Mountain Schlong, perhaps… Happy Belated Rebels Remembered Day to all who celebrated last week! A preview of the forthcoming May issue of Empire Magazine, featuring Mando and the BABAY Today's lesson in filmmaking no one asked for: the black and white clappy thing used on film sets Prediction: you won't be able to swing a light saber without hitting someone dressed as Rotta the Hutt at the next Star Wars Celebration Bae? Alyce's Bae? Obi-Wan? O-Bae-Wan? He's gonna be in Ahsoka season 2? Maybe? (via Bespin Bulletin) Step aside, Ewan. There's a new Bae in town! Ryan Gosling has a rule about franchises. His rule is confusing. But it's his world and we're just living in it. Did “Are You Afraid of the Dark” traumatize Millennials in childhood? Revisit 90s Nickelodeon with us! Maul has to be faster and more intense in the upcoming animated series. Also apparently he's going to be questioning everything he believed about the Jedi. Not about Obi-Wan though, he definitely still hates that b-tch. Recap on Tap: Our Ahsoka Again segment comes to an end as we re-watch the Season 1 finale, Part 8: The Jedi, The Witch, and the Warlord. Climb aboard the mountain where Morgan finally reveals her true badassery, Daniel aka Sabine's Force powers show up when it really counts, Ezra makes a big leap and trooper zombies are powerless without their heads! We hope you've enjoyed the ride. Now enjoy the 9- to 10-month (or more) wait for Season 2.
