Show Notes Episode 474: Santa Went to Sears This week Host Dave Bledsoe was ejected from Macy's after getting drunk and trying to climb on Santa's lap. (He also tried to kiss him under the beard.) On the show this week we celebrate the True Meaning of Christmas™: The annual Sears Wishbook Catalog. Along the way we learn that Dave was playing with dolls well into puberty. (It would be slightly less sad if they were sex dolls, but they weren't). Then we learn a brief history of commerce in human history before he finally gets around to talking about Sears. We learn how the Wishbook went from a Depression era supplement to the annual announcement of the Christmas Season for an entire Generation. (This is one thing that belongs to Generation X entirely. Boomers got pensions, we got a discontinued catalog.) Dave explains the math behind toy acquisition before the Internet before detailing why the Wishbook is no more. (It is more Walmart than Amazon.) Finally, we close with the cultural impact of the Wishbook and a frankly unnecessary digression into how the catalog framed the sexual awakening of Gen X boys. (We're so sorry.) Our Returning Sponsor this week is the USS Flagg, the toy that made you realize you were poor. We open the show with a Sears commercial from 1985 and close Zoot Fenster who has some questions about the items in the catalog.

Order of Battle Podcast episode 66 Are you aware of James Duffy? Dio-Display? You absolutely should be! James joined the Order of Battle to discuss his company, Dio-Display, the passion around building environments that drives this business and the USS Flagg custom that he's bringing to JoeFest. This conversation travels from modern action figures, toy culture, philosophy, painting, and more. It really is what it's like to hang out in the lobby at four am with James. It's why we asked him to join our Road to JoeFest. James is a true artist that loves to play with his toys and asks all of us to both come along and to inspire him in return with our play. And he's willing to drive 3200 miles to share that passion. Catch James at JoeFest. He'll be near the SoCal group. Also, you should check out his Flagg custom and the diorama/play environment pieces on his website, Instagram, and in the 1:18 diorama Facebook group.

The G.I. Joe USS Flagg was put out by Hasbro in 1985. They considered it the biggest toy ever measuring in at over 7 feet long. This is the story of how the 'greatest toy of all time' came to be. Show notes: USS Flagg

Denne uka tar vi for oss "grails". Konseptet om jakten på det uoppnåelige. Hva er en grail? Hvilke figurer fortjener stemplet "grail"? Hvilke er våre grails? Her er vi innom alle de store: Fortress Maximuss, USS Flagg, Technodrome, Eternia. Men vi ser også enkeltfigurer fortjente denne klassifiseringen. Hvilke?
