Today we have a bit of everything. There's some cool cool reveals to chat through including Secret Wars, deep cut Batman 66 and The Loyal Subjects big announcement. Another great kickstarter to spend monies on and the always awesome Radical Rewind event to recap. Then its present time as we get a care package from the legend Tealo! We attended a Toy Store grand opening and while it was amazing, it was also the source of some Toy Power controversy - one of the team has some explaining to do!

In this special Toy Power episode we are joined by author Paul Flavel. He's just released an amazing new book called John Martin's: The Story of South Australia's Beloved Department Store, which has been over 5 years in the making. We chat about many amazing memories of this beloved South Australian department store, from the incredible toy department (largest in the Southern hemisphere, that's a fact, Jack) to the indispensable Eliza's cafeteria (where the malt for your milkshake is always available), through to the Christmas pageant and the undisputed home of Father Christmas. If you have a love for this beloved SA retailer, do yourself a favour and check it out at https://www.johnmartinsbook.com (print run 1 is selling fast). You can curl up with your Marty bear and a cup of coffee from Eliza's and enjoy this beautiful book that so beautifully captures an important part of our State (and Australian) retail history. Darren, this one's for you buddy!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week on Toy Power we are joined by the legendary Fresh. First up its an amazing Canadian themed gift box from Colin Betts and some genuinely amazing goodies including one very special custom! Its then into all the news, including the HasLab Cantina funding update, Garfield and Friends, an Ultimate D&D Tiamat (complete with all 5 heads) and new comic Kull and Conan figures! Fresh then gives us some good news for getting your hands on wrestling figures in Australia (and good news for your wallet too). There's new video game figures from Spin Master, and then a tonne of TMNT news starting with a totally NOT Bebop figure, a 1:12 Collective Casey Jones (already sold out), the long awaited Tatsu figure from the 1990 TMNT movie (but why is he red?) and Karai as the Shredder (Fresh's cosplay of choice). Fugitoid is relegated to an accessory in the Last Ronin accessory pack, and then we a get (more) naked Mikey (come on, they are always kind of naked anyhow). Rounding it out with some1988 Michael Keaton figures from Beetlejuice before we get excited from the new Captain America film. Then all the SDCC 2024 exclusives, including one reveal that is, lets just say, not well received. Mikey's Pizza delivery business may just have to be done on Foot!!!!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week Casey is again flying solo, and took part of the DVG family, Toy Power's Ben "Big Saxy" along for the ride!

Today we are missing a Scot but subbing in for the first time on Toy Power is longtime Patreon Brendan Crates. The King of the Monsters is back but is that a good thing? Ben reports in. The Todd makes his customary appearance and is this the happiest figure he's ever done? And the biggest topic - in both scale and importance - GI Joe and Super7: Is this the ultimate partnership? Colin Betts writes in for his hot take. Jada toys doing the lords work before a questionable news item from Scot. A fab new Kickstarter to check out rounded out with some impressive latest scores. *mic drop*Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today is a day unlike any other - Dave and Casey invade Toy Power the same way Guile and his commandos storm M.Bison's fortress. That's right, we are talking about the 1994 Street Fighter movie. So it seems like the perfect time to allow swearing and smut! No holds barred here as we play in the DVG sandbox with all the hilarity and chaos it's known for. Not much toy talk here, but plenty of laughs to awkwardly explain to your loved ones. Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we challenged ourselves like never before! The crossover event of our careers! So please look forward to a Quiz show devised from Matt Teale'o; with participants from Dave's Video Graveyard & Geek Dudes; pitched against the Toy Power Team. This is actually Part Two of our crossover with good friends DVG and GeekDudes. If you're wondering what happened to Part One; you're not alone. I think Davey said it best, that when eight podcasters all yell at the same time, while chaotic and fun in places, it doesn't necessarily make for good listening. On review, our decision to remove the PG filter wasn't the right call either. Darren once said “Toy Power should be for everyone” and Part One simply didn't fit that mantra - so it won't be released. So for now, enjoy this family friendly quiz Battle Royale between us & our good mates.

This week Casey was again without our hero Dave, so called out for a more adult-ier adult - and Ben from Toy Power answered the call to babysit. The duo have civilised conversations about fucking your uncle, writing with poo, and whether you can really set your fart on fire. Join them as they chat about Trey Parker and Matt Stones hilarious work over the years, favourite characters and episodes, and bring back all those 1999 South Park memberberries you didn't know you missed.Listen to us on itunes, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.or direct download the mp3 from the link below:https://www.buzzsprout.com/186739/12799059-southpark-bigger-longer-uncut-with-ben-sachse.mp3?download=trueCatch Ben's work here:https://omny.fm/shows/toy-power/playlists/podcasthttps://www.instagram.com/shredder1982/#davesvideograveyard #toypowerpodcast #bensachse
This week on the Toy Power - it's a team of three; whilst Frank is not well. But the show must go on; and what a combination of segments we have for you! Toy News - out with the Rodent King & in with Lady Shredder! The Celebration of Window Packaging, another wacky He-Man variant & a utility Belt to tie all the news together. Then, our second segment finishes off the last couple of Patreon questions. "Hit Or Shit" Movie reviews - how right or very wrong where we initially when we talked about the D&D + Super Mario Films? Then rounding the out the ep, is a classic Latest Scores segment. All this and a whole lot more! Enjoy.

What happens when Producer Scot fails to come up with exciting content for the latest episode of Toy Power? We turn to our amazing Patreons and ask them to cover out collective backsides. Our Patreons have delivered the goods and hit us up some hard-hitting questions. Is there a toy Heaven or Hell and what toys would we send there? Will we be collecting toys as geriatric senior citizens? Which Toy Power member would Trent choose as his Lego Masters partner? Where the hell is Ben for this episode? We tackle these questions and many more in this exciting episode.Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This week has been a scheduling nightmare and Casey and Dave didn't make it over the line, so to fill the void in your hearts and loins DVG presents the time they ruined Toy Power Podcast:“Today on Toy Power Podcast we are joined by not just one, but two special guests both Davey & Casey! And let me warn you they certainly bring along a lot of laughs for this episode! Casey is asked the usual initiation questions, whilst Davey is asked about his redeeming qualities..... and the Toy Power lads are given a stern warning within the first 5 mins. The first topic off the rank is all about Fast Food Toys - and let's face it, everyone was exposed to these in one form or another! We go around the room with nostalgic memories of our personal favourite toys through the ages as well as hunting these toys down. Darren phone-in's thru the drive thru bay as he aims for a new show sponsor. We touch on the quality and collectability of these juggernaut toy lines; with their heavy hitting - well known properties, especially movie companies - marketed at kids versus the fast food inhouse promotional characters, plus the fashion behind them too! Don't forget the coupons and promotions to get you to keep coming back. The conversation segway's to corner deli's, VERY HEALTHY cereal toys, and Tazos in chip packets among other things. Davey gets serious for a second and gives us a detailed history of Tazo's & OddBodz releases as well. **(Please note - this is all very Australian based memories from us - other countries Fast Food outlets may be named differently.)** Then we change gears as Master Trent lines up a 'World Cup Fever Quiz' - parting us into two separate teams! Very far from any sports orientated theme actually, and this quiz becomes quite dissident and goes on to become a penalty shoot-out! Stay tuned for the tightest, most uncontroversial quiz of all time!Massive thanks to Trent, Ben, Frank and the late great Darren for allowing us to steal their homework this week.

Today on Toy Power, it's time to look forward to 2023 and what lies beyond. But before that, just cause (most of us) were on holidays doesn't mean the toy companies are! NECA do their traditional reveals while Boss Fight revive an 80s legend. Mattel do DEEP into the well for their new figure while Todd gives us the most maximum Batman there is. Also featuring Shaq, Tom Sellick, Sarah Jessica Parker and six-packs. And Ben answers the question on everyone's lips: What does Thirty-Thirty look like?Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Growing up in Kansas, my family didn't have much money to spend on things like toys and games. I didn't do without, but my collection of toys was small in comparison to what kids have today. And that got me thinking about potential opportunities to capitalize on this trend. In today's episode of The Stock Power Podcast, I share a 100-rated Power Stock with a strong lead in the toy market. I've learned more about toys in the last 14 months than I ever knew before. That's because my first grandson was born last year. My wife and I have spent a good amount of money on plush toys, toddler games and every other thing for a child you can think of. It's our first grandchild, so that's what we're supposed to do, right? This week's Power Stock is a company that designs and sells a wide range of children's toys and games around the world.

Welcome to Botched: A D&D Podcast! We are joined yet again by Frank Allen from Toy Power! Channeling his inner Strong Bad, he is a legendary tag team wrestler, with no brother to tag in. That's where the plan comes in. Chonkey's brother Plonkey, his old tag team partner, is the Duke's right hand man and oversees the town. Somehow, they have to get beyond the town and get towards the Duke. They also need to reignite Plonkey's passion for wrestling, since he banned it. The group, apparently, has made a plan to achieve both goals. Step 1, let the fundead in. Step 2, deal with Plonkey Step 3, convince someone to help them get to the Duke, probably Plonkey. Will the plan work? How will they enact their plan? Will Plonkey love Wrestling again? Will the Honka-Stonka ever be a thing again? Tune in and find out! We now have a PO Box!

Welcome to Botched: A D&D Podcast! We are joined by another special guest this week! Frank Allen from Toy Power! Granted, he is Australian, and we don't have the best track record with people from down under…but I'm sure it'll be fine right? The group has made it to the town just outside of where The Duke lives…however, The Duke has alerted everyone to their presence, so the guards are all on the lookout for the party members. However, the party just got a little bigger. They are joined by a person selling toads, and a tag team wrestler with no team. What a great combination. Who are these new characters? Why is The Duke protected by carnivorous donkeys? What is the signature move of this once great wrestler? You'll have to tune in and find out! We now have a PO Box! Wanna send us something?

Hailing from the Central Coast of NSW, Matt is a long time Pateron and chose to spend his 40th birthday with us at Adelaides Mega Toy Fair! But before we talk all things Toy Fair, there are a ton of new reveals to talk through not least of which come from Star Wars Celebration and the SDCC previews are starting to roll in!

Today on the Toy Power Podcast we welcome back our Canadian friend Colin Betts to talk all things Kickstarter/Crowd Funded projects. If there's one thing you remember about Colin, it's his amazing attention to detail so what better place to start than the exploding world of Crowd Funded toys. What does it look like now that the big boys are using this space? Is watching the number tick by a genuine sport? How did we get to this point? Can a flailing campaign successfully course correct (not you Rancor!) What's a Robo-Skull? How important is timing? What projects have you backed? As if that's not enough questions, Colin tries his hand at a Toy Power quiz and boy, do we suck. Trent tries to cheat yet again and finally, we discuss the Return of Big Sexy Sax in a very special photo shoot. Bon voyage to Ben who leaves for work for the next month!

Today on the Toy Power podcast, we are joined by none other than Davey Damaged who opens up on his thoughts about our ideal set of hosts. There's loads of headlines to discuss but along the way, we take some serious detours. Davey invents his own Con. A Venom figure can now disappear? Egg Cups officially enter the Marvel Universe. How kissable are Timothy Oliphants lips? Is Star Wars Power of the Force actually good? The Todd suddenly impresses Davey. Trent (despite being absent) is a bully. NECA are slipping on multiple fronts. Terminator and MOTU officially cross-over. To the punks who want less representation in their franchises: SHUT. UP. Davey gets jealous of Criss Fresh. Frank sucks at segways. Just like how Seinfeld LEGO isn't great. And, belly buttons. The list of toys to buy just keeps on growing. Not helped by the amazing Pixel Dan Dark Horse book as reviewed by Ben and Darren. But don't count those pages wrong – how very dare you! If none of that makes sense, then you best get to listening….

This week on Toy Power the team is joined by Chris Finlay (aka Webstor.83) to talk all things toys. Yep, the IQ of the room is instantaneously skyrocketed into the stratosphere... but that's not the only mind-blowing aspect of having Chris on the show! His collectors dream house is displayed beautifully with 4 full rooms of toys, collectibles and video games that mean the TPP boys are already planning their next trip to Southern California (and will each get the best guest room imaginable)! Trent takes note on how to "negotiate" more space in his own house, whilst pondering how long it would take to get dressed if he had an 80s shrine (including vast MOC goodness) in his wardrobe! Chris talks about what the average year looks like in the Californian toys scene and its an extravaganza of toy shows and pop culture events. Darren is blown away that Masters of the Universe makes it into Chris' lectures, so we all know that we can learn a thing or two by studying this 80s phenomenon. We also have a really insightful conversation about gender roles in both pop culture and toys, and how stereotypes can permeate into our collective childhoods and culture. We breakdown some of the toys that are interesting to consider and the broader implications of how media can shape the world we live in, and the implications this can have on identity. A really fantastic episode to be a part of, we cant wait to talk more to Chris in a future episode.

Today on the Toy Power Podcast, it’s all about games and testing our toy knowledge. But we need a ringmaster to pull it all together so Scotty M returns to the studio! Warming us up with a round of What Would You Rather, Scotty then quizzes the team – but with a twist – our wonderful Patreons have supplied the questions! It’s show-host against show-host in a battle for bragging rights and Toy Power supremacy! For Science! I think it’s fair to say the Patreons found gaps in our knowledge but there are some fascinating duels – how many Batman villains can you name? And more to the point, which A-lister did we forget to mention? And there’s a bonus, heart-wrenching question that makes Darren wish for the sweet release of death… Also, Wogsters. Then it’s Latest Scores time as we find out how much it takes to earn a free PopCulture pin – the answer varies. Ben adjusts his monocle with a bevy of goodies before Frank talks to his biggest purchase yet. And after a record-breaking hunt, has the Fridge been found?

Today on the Toy Power Podcast, it’s all about opening toys! Are there are none more anticipated than an overseas mystery parcel that has literally been 7 months in the making. Our fave Luxemborgeon has gifted us some amazing pieces that very nearly emotional breaks one of the Toy Power crew. After the stunning start, it’s on to some of NECA’s finest work – Our brother-in-arms Davey lends us his new purchase that we get to open on air. These two are best described as “babies – they’re BABIES!” But do we get hung up on the packaging it comes in? Then it’s some imported Bots as we look at the new Transformers R.E.D line – a line that probably won’t come to Aus so get the low down here if it’s worth your effort to track down. All that plus the usual hijinks of botched intros, big outlandish statements, our latest scores (Christmas 2020 edition) and controversial quizzes.

But being such a huge and impressive line, we're taking two episodes to go through it!

We are back from the holiday break with some vim and vigor. Charles has been wanting to talk about a talent he wishes he had for a while.

Harness the power of Dinosaurs! Ben is joined by Trent from the Toy Power podcast and Lego Masters to discuss all things Dino Riders! But being such a huge and impressive line, we're taking two episodes to go through it! In part one we delve into the backstory of the animated Dino Riders series, with Ben telling the time he got to pitch a new Dino Riders comic, and Trent sharing his experiences on Lego Maters. Oh, and talking about the cartoon as well.
Cinemax's Warrior was one of my favorite series last year as a fan and as a critic. Based on an original concept by Bruce Lee, the show was created by Jonathan Tropper and Justin Lin and blends drama, the Old West, and martial arts. Set during the Tong Wars of San Francisco’s Chinatown in the second half of the 19th century. it follows martial arts prodigy Ah Sahm, a Chinese immigrant who arrives in the City of Lights under mysterious circumstances. Once he proves his prowess as a fighter, Sahm becomes a hitman for one of Chinatown's most powerful organized crime families. That said, while Ah Sahm is the central character of Warrior, he is surrounded by powerful female characters that push the story of the series farther and offer up a look at the intersections of race, gender, and class. This is no truer than in Ah Toy, the most powerful businesswoman in Chinatown, who just so happens to be a madam. Portrayed by Olivia Cheng, Ah Toy is a powerful woman who understands how the world sees her, both within her Chinese American community and among the white men she deals with. I was lucky enough to get the chance to speak with Olivia Cheng before the launch of Warrior Season 2. In this interview, we discuss the series' relevancy during the current rise of anti-Asian hate crimes and how the series introduces audiences to Asian American history. Warrior does this in multiple ways, but referencing specifical historical moments to Ah Toy herself, a character based on a real woman of the same name. A self-proclaimed history buff, Cheng explains how she knew the history of San Francisco ahead of shooting the series, but dove even further into by learning more about Ah Toy, of which there isn't much written from her perspective.

Darren phone-in's thru the drive thru bay as he aims for a new show sponsor. We touch on the quality and collectability of these juggernaut toy lines; with their heavy hitting - well known properties, especially movie companies - marketed at kids versus the fast food inhouse promotional characters, plus the fashion behind them too! Don't forget the coupons and promotions to get you to keep coming back. The conversation segway's to corner deli's, VERY HEALTHY cereal toys, and Tazos in chip packets among other things. Davey gets serious for a second and gives us a detailed history of Tazo's & OddBodz releases as well. **(Please note - this is all very Australian based memories from us - other countries Fast Food outlets may be named differently.)** Then we change gears as Master Trent lines up a 'World Cup Fever Quiz' - parting us into two separate teams! Very far from any sports orientated theme actually, and this quiz becomes quite dissident and goes on to become a penalty shoot-out! Stay tuned for the tightest, most uncontroversial quiz of all time!

Today on the Toy Power podcast, we get real for a bit as we attempt to break down the state of the collecting world, 18 months since the exit of Toys R Us. It’s a chat mainly based around the suffering of our US friends as in a weird twist of fate, these toys are mostly easily available here in Aus… Whats the role of the retailer and do they even care? Whats the meaning behind an exclusive? Do they have it black? And if not WalMart or Target, where does a collector go? Then it’s onto the Watchmen TV show – and we can’t stop gushing about it. Trent even screams in delight at one particularly gruesome scene. We break down just why this reboots stands alone above all others – are you paying attention ThunderCats Roar? And whats with the egg? Did Trent finally pronounce JJ’s name correctly? And in what looks like the start of a new thing, find out how Frank went with his hunt for the rogue figure in his toy room… Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcast See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.
It’s News Day and boy is there a lot to get too! There’s Moon Knight and a girthy Daredevil but that’s nothing compared to one massive leg. There’s chat around Mafex vs Legends while Streets of Rage makes a comeback in toy/videogame form. Hot Toys are accused of using small blue workers to get the perfect face, while over at Black Series, there is a decided introduction of colour. Bye-bye numbering system, hello incomplete artwork! And don’t forget fish-guy! Go-go-Gadget is back but will we be reaching our extendable arms to grab it? Tweeterhead step into the Sideshow MOTU void but you have to ask, which head is better? McFarlane are actually able to produce a figure with no paint and it totally works! But how? There’s juicy tidbits from another Pixel Dan/Brian Flynn interview and of course, we can’t avoid the huge story that is The Snyder Cut. PS: We totally know what’s going to be in it! Trent tries to convince you that inversions are a good thing – Nolan agrees. Then Ben introduces a new game to the team – Toy Power Tennis! Prepare for lots of foot faults! Support the show.
Today on the Toy Power Podcast, Phil from Philly joins us on the show and we nearly veer off the cliff into Mad Max and US Politics. Ben perhaps over-shares just a little… Toy Power gets a mention on Vurbul as one of the best shows to listen too: but who else made the list? Trent unleashes Davey the Attack Dog as the social media for Lego Masters ramps up! Lego also pivot to make visors for first responders (though Franks imagination takes it in a different direction), we talk to The Todds ultra successful Kickstarter and a couple of other headlines. But the real surprises are from some very generous overseas Patreons @DeltaChamelon and Colin Betts. What did they send us? We might get a little carried away and forget to call things out on air but trust us, it’s amazing! Phil then sells us on Animal Crossing and SOMEone takes the plunge into their own island paradise on air – who was it?? Find more of Phil including his new show Nooks Tavern @imaginarynomad Support the show.
This week on Toy Power it's not quite NYTF (but don't worry, we'll definitely get to all that toy goodness). But there's still a lot of pre-New York news to delve into. Is Dino-Riders getting a re-boot? Yes. Does it have Dino's? You betcha!!! Can you afford it? Probably not. We get a tease into what the G.I. Classified line has to offer, with the very first reveal of everyone's favorite talkative Ninja: Snake Eyes. And he even gets Frank's tick of approval (and your new ring-tone!). There's MOTU: Revelations casting news that has Darren skipping down the mall singing at the top of his voice (and on an unrelated note, the Mall's never been so uninhabited!) Thanos gets a new figure that your going to be so happy the team over at Mezco decided to click into existence, and the new Two-Face that has so many accessories he might as well be called Fifty-Face! Some delicate observations of a minor "flaw" with the new Masterpiece Arcee, that has some of the strangest descriptions of robotic-female body parts you will ever hear in your life. And how much exactly did Frank have to pay the marketing teams over at Boss Fight Studio to get a figure made in the exact likeness of his Spirit Animal? It's then over to the guy's hopes and dreams for New York. Who wants a shiny new Dr. Killemoff? Who is wishing to see what next for Mondo's Mecha line (Voltron anyone?) And who just wants a pony. Time enough for latest scores, and there's a bounty of figures... including the extremely impressive Dethlatron from NeMA studios. Nothing (not even receiving the exact measurements), I mean NOTHING could have prepared Ben for the size of this thing. Round it out with a few wonderful reviews, and you good Sir, have a show. It's no New York, but it's still a good show. Support the show.
Today on the Toy Power podcast the boys are joined by another international guest from the friendliest place on earth (you heard me New Zealand!) with renowned filmmaker Rob McCallum. Known for Nintendo Quest, a MOTU doco and much more, Darren kicks it all off with the longest intro every received on the show. Rob fills us in on his latest film making adventure that is days away from completion: Action Figure Adventure. This amazing 10-ep show is already fully funded on Kickstarter but there is more to be done – and Trent throws out a challenge to YOU the listener! Prove the Australia does exist! Along the way Rob talks more broadly about film making, his pop culture passions and how not-grown-up he is. The list of special guests will make your head spin and if that’s not enough, the truly humanitarian outreach of this doco will melt your plastic heart. We also learn about Rob’s dream project, the price of doing business, The Wiggles, Duckburg ,Wikipedia all while Rob teases his next as-yet-unannounced project. If this ep doesn’t get you through the week, nothing will! Get onboard and support this amazing project! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/afa/action-figure-adventure Follow Rob on Twitter and IG @RobMcZob Support the show.
Today on the Toy Power podcast, it’s a new year and there’s new DC – and lots of it! McFarlane and SpinMaster kick of the year with a host of new reveals and we dive into all detail and rampant opinions. We explain what a C2B is and make some assumptions about Trent’s buying habits on this line. But there’s a spanner in the works and thy name is blind bagged! There’s new Power Rangers to talk too and thankfully, Hasbro has learnt the lessons of SOTA lines past… We hope/assume/pray to the Sorceress that Mattel has a plan! More TMNT ReAction figures but did they reveal more than intended? And did Ben just reveal more than HE intended? If you thought Deathlatron was cool wait till you hear Nemar Studios next project. It’s then time for some Listener write-in questions. This was so popular we had to split it across two episodes! What does Toy Power do for real-life work? What is Darren’s guilty TV pleasure? Did we just invent Uber-Cat? Stay tuned next week if we didn’t answer your question – there’s more to come! Support the show.
2020 has only just begun but there is already so much Star Wars to talk about! So much so that the guys decided to call in an expert from a galaxy far far away in Marty! We hit him up with the usual Toy Power questions but not before he hits Frank with an absolute zinger! Then it’s Rise of Skywalker time to see just what we all thought about the latest (and final) chapter in the Skywalker saga. Did JJ pull it off and stick the landing? How the heck do you wrap up a 42 year storyline? Which one of us is “one of those guys on the internet” with an unpopular opinion? What did we think of THAT cameo and how do Power Rangers tie into the mythology? Marty confesses to having lost his love for the franchise – did this movie help or hinder that? Goes without saying there be spoilers ahead… Then it’s a shift into hyperspace as we look at the other new Star Wars in The Mandalorian. Are we the target audience? Marty takes us through a great look at the Mando culture while we ask the obvious question: How much do you hate THOSE Storm Troopers? But importantly, what about those toys? And Baby Yoda – he is the way. Support the show.
This week on Toy Power the boys cover all the latest news. What's the verdict on the latest Mortal Kombat reveals from McFarlane, and how does this bode for the DC license? The jury's out but the rumors of a BAF Batmobile are making me feel like getting to my feet and doing the Batusi! BBTS to stock some "exclusive" Justice League animated figures, the once-mighty incentive for toy enthusiasts for subscribing to the DC Streaming service, now available to everyone and anyone WORLDWIDE! Confused about all the MOTU cartoons hitting Netflix? Don't be because we clear it all up. From Baby Yoda merch galore, through to answers to the question on everyone's lips... How does a vintage style ReAction He-Man straddle his battle cat? And the solution is bound to "taunt" you? Again. It's then over to Christmas as the boys share their joy of the festive season. Find out who has been naughty, and who has been nice (and who just buys all their Christmas presents for themselves all year round! We then say farewell to 2019, and as we all get older and wiser, Ben shares a secret to seeing in the new year that is a far cry from "make your own cocktail and projectile vomit over a balcony..." See you all in 2020 for what is shaping up to be an incredible year on Toy Power. Happy new year everyone! Support the show.

We made it – we actually made it. For some reason you all keep listening so we’ll keep on making it! Our good friend and 5th podcaster Davey joins us for this milestone ep where we look back over the year that was and dish out some awards. But hold on, what’s this?? *GASP* who is our SURPRISE guest??? In this celebration, there are no rules as we throw the timer out the window in this extended episode. There’s loads of categories to get through and a whole bunch of your feedback to shoutout – what was the best movie, best show, most fun toy and many more including the big one – the single best toy of 2019. Despite our growth some things remain the same: Darren struggles to pick one while Davey stirs the pot – in particular the Star Wars pot. What does Frank’s video game choice say about him? Is Davey planning a spin-off Toy Power show? How many awards can one Shredder toy win? Which toy line is classed as the coriander of 2019? Davey revels in his quizmaster duties and honestly, proved that despite his tough exterior, he’s a bigger nerd than all of us. Also, we suck. But now you versus us thanks to a new interactive component. As it is the season of giving, we once again do some Secret Santa proving that Ben can’t count, but makes up for it with a double gift surprise. We will be having a week off over Xmas so we hope this extended ep makes up for it! A big thank you to all Toy Power fans, you guys and gals are top shelf!
This week our resident oracle of all things movie and pop culture, Jamie, joins Dave and Paul for a look back at the year 1984. It was a landmark year for all genres from not wanting to sleep courtesy of Freddy Krueger to a few ex SNL alumni busting ghosts in New York. We had the worst Indiana Jones, the best Beverley Hills Cop and the beginning of a time travel franchise whose wheels would eventually fall off because of numerous Australian actors. Ben from the Toy Power podcast also pops in to lets us know everything toy/merch/video game related in 1984. Listen to us on iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts.

Today on the Toy Power Podcast its Power-Con baby! All the news from the Masters of the Universe convention *live from Anaheim California! And it's all coming up ULTIMATES! Who exactly did the Four Horsemen Studios use as inspiration from the original MOTU Classics buck? (hint: Down! Up! Down! Up! More Energy!) How many weapons, weapons-racks, heads, hands, and accessories does $10 really get you? And they got Mysterio's Jake Gyllenhaal to write Kevin Smith's cover story for why he was really at Power-Con! (interviewing Rob David? Come on! People will believe anything these days!) Then the boys jump into all the latest toy news including Hasbro's goal to remove all plastic from packaging by2022! No, don't worry! Optimus Prime won't be built out of those leftover shipping cartons. And even though Ewoks may have been George Lucas's Gungun's of the 1980's, Hot Toys have possibly made them one of the coolest toys on offer today! (So meessa gonna be popular-doo-doo in 2040?) And find out which movie sequel (or 4) we are getting, and ask yourself, do we really need them. All of them!

But maybe next year... Support the show.
This week on the Toy Power Podcast the boys take a look at the history of Mortal Kombat toys. (Hey! Teacher! Leave our spelling ALONE!) From its humble beginnings as a spin-off G.I. Joe line, it's been home to many different toy manufacturers over the years (Including Toy Island, who sung that hilarious song about being on a boat, right!?!?). There has been some wonderful toy lines over the years, but only one really lets us recreate all those gory Fatalities. Its then time to see who will make the cut in the new Mortal Kombat movie! Will Davey make the grade, or does he need to get a few more tatts? It's then over to the next installment of "Questions from the Internet," where we answer YOUR questions! We take a look at MOC preservation, scalpers and our best op shop finds! Ben then does his best Nostradamus to bring you all a prediction that will make the hairs on your neck stand on end. A Ben "tingle" you might say? What is it? And will it come true... only time will tell. The lads then round it out with some very heartfelt words to the "engine room" of Toy Power, as he embarks on one of lifes most magical journey's outside of this hobby. Many glasses of top-shelf Scotch were consumed in the making of this episode. Cheers! Support the show.
Today on the Toy Power Podcast, we put on our finest after dinner wear as wrap up the year that was for our second annual Toy of the Year awards! With votes from our Patreons and around the internet, we cover all the categories from the Best Movies, Shows, Comics through to the biggest flops, surprises and all round best Toys of 2018! Which ones were the clear winners and which ones couldn’t we decide on? If you think Darren is indecisive, wait till you hear Trent’s outrageous claim! We then get a little help from The Boss (NOT you Mariah!) as we get in the gift giving spirit with our own Secret Santa. How well do we know each other’s toy tastes? Is Darren secretly McGyver? Is Frank starting his own Cabbage Patch doll collection? But there’s more Christmas surprises including some extra-ordinary generosity from Ben and a heartfelt speech from Darren. It really is like one of those family Xmas specials where we all laugh around the fireplace as the credits roll… Merry Christmas to all our listeners from everyone at Toy Power! Support the show.
Today on the Toy Power Podcast we cover the latest news from the toy universe. The show goes international as we look at some reveals from Paris Comic Con and chat to Frank about what’s involved with toy shopping in Hong Kong. We even got a glowing review from Egon Spengler - you read that right! As another Super7 order window comes to a close, we look at the some of the controversy surrounding bots placing orders with Super7 - is SkyNet finally real? We then take a backseat from complaining about shipping costs when we hear from one of our European fans who puts it all in perspective! There’s new reveals from LEGO, Hot Toys and Batman The Animated series Box-Set that looks super promising! In some strange news, Transformers G1 re-issues are showing up in the most unlikely of places - which leads to us creating the most, uncomfortable robots ever! In the business world Hasbro shares some disappointing news which they then try to put a positive spin on it - emphasis on ‘try’. Finally we are surprised and amazed at a wonderful gift from our Patreon John Caulfield. We open this box of goodies live on air so the suspense is real! This leads into a latest scores segment where Trent has a shining halo moment with an unexpected find. Keep it on Toy Power for our Halloween Little Toy-Shop of Horrors episode coming next week with our good friend Davey Damaged! Support the show.

Infact there’s so much stuff to talk about, we had to call in some backup in the form of our good friend, Mr Davey Damaged!

It's that time of year when we look back to the year that was. In this case, Trent decides to cast a look even further back, with an all time classic opening. Our unofficial fifth member of Toy Power is back as Davey Damaged joins us once again. We open with the big guns - The Best Toys of 2017. We cover it all from the stuff you loved, to the stuff you didn't, our fav movies, best value and some surprises. We also read-back your feedback on all that 2017 had to offer. Special shoutout to Lux Toy Collector on Instagram (@luxtoycollector) for being our top contributor - go follow him now! Ben then stress-tests our brains for the last time this year with Comics themed quiz that proves we know about as much as Jon Snow... Closing out the year is our final edition of Latest Scores. Thank you for all your support in a great first year for our show! Shoutout to the lads at Giant Size Team Up Network helping us become the token Aussie show in their collection.

Today we get festive as the silly season is upon us! Our un-official fifth member of Toy Power has returned, Mr Davey Damaged, who helps regal us with Christmas related stories and banter. Everything from Frank's crazy Spanish customs, Ben's huge-Farm adventures and Davey's legit Outback Bogan tale. We also cover Xmas movies and the list is EXTENSIVE - is there a fav of yours we missed? Then there's our own "Santa reveal" stories. It was at this point, Darren tells the saddest Xmas tale you will ever hear. Seriously, you WILL cry! But we bring the humor back as Trent dresses as the creepiest Snowman ever and we look at the worst presents ever recieved. If that wasn't all enough, Trent has a genuine surprise for the team that caught us all off guard. Other highlights include, Davey's "Cyber-Grip", a 2-minute pitch on the classic toyline Hook (RUF-FEE-OOOOOO!) and we wash it all down with best-of clip highlighting just how many times we goofed over the year. Wow! Merry Xmas from everyone here at Toy Power! Support the show.
Just like the Toy Power Podcast may feel like a cheap, hastily compiled imitation of a real Podcast, bootlegs find a way of attracting customers too. They often grace the pegs of undiscerning retailers and cheap stores alike. From the weeping TigerMan (beg for mercy, TigerMan... BEG!), to the Sense of Right Alliance, bootlegs can be a forgotten part of our childhood memories. But perhaps there is more to this topic than meets the Robo-Changer-Heroes eye. No longer simply producing combinations like He-Man in NFL attire or cheap, inferior copies of the real deal, bootlegs have in some instances evolved into high quality copies, virtually indistinguishable from their genuine counterparts. The rise of 3rd Party, including legions of "Transformers", are becoming more readily available. Does this trend simply fill a hole left by some toy companies? A way of market testing certain products? Or is it slightly more sinister in that it directs money away from official licence holders, potentially damaging future viability of official releases? "On the charge of death of a toy-line we find the defendant... INNOCENT!" Bootlegs can be a divisive topic with strong views from some Collectors. Join the Toy Power lads as they dissect, give it a bath, and then reassemble this topic. Support the show.
Holy factory fire, Batman. Discover all you need to know (and then some) about Kenner's groundbreaking Batman: the Animated Series toy line. Discover which vehicle barely made it out of the factory before it was engulfed in flames (don't blame the Joker), why is Robin looking so buff, and which toy-line was the first to provide customers with even case ratios between Batman and his Rouges Gallery (ok, yes its BTAS). Any good Batman variants? Will Darren give the Toy Power "thumbs up" on any Batman variants? How much did Combat Belt Batman cost in Toyworld in 1992? Is Penguin's coat made of cloth, felt or a felt-like cloth? All these questions will be answered in the Toy-line Retrospective if you are tuned into the same Toy Power Time and same Toy Power Channel! Then, let Frank blow your mind with billions of quiz questions about the 10 lego blocks that Lego has produced over the years. Wait, have I got that right. I'm in trouble for this quiz. And was Frank's latest score perhaps the best action figure ever made. Find out in Episode 29 of Toy Power! Support the show.
