 Hello, looks like we've got a couple people here already. Hey Mike Lopez Hey Brandon and action figure expert. Hey nice to see everyone Just one moment Hi Mike One moment, please See here This is actually the first time I've done like a regular live stream in a while Last week we did the Special movie live stream Hello, everyone. I'm seeing everybody post but I'm not reading fast enough. So hello everyone who just showed up Sorry if I missed you So the the movie live stream did pretty well Surprisingly to me and I hope that Everyone who watched that also watched the movie along with it Otherwise you get a lot of just two people kind of staring blankly off into space So I hope that it's a little more entertaining if you're watching the movie along with it Jace Jace Traver hoodie McHooderson. I like that. Hi Isaac Steven. How's everybody? So yeah, I'll give everybody a few minutes to show up and then we'll get started I wanted to what I'd like to do in these live streams is take a few minutes to Talk about the most recent review. So You know, we can just kind of talk it out discuss it I can get everybody's thoughts, you know about the figure that was reviewed So I thought that might be fun So we'll do that here in just a minute Hello, Dave and Benjamin and Matt and Green Yeti and Seymour and Rob. Hello everybody It's very nice to see everybody Hey, you know what a really great thing, you know Timmer did his His charity drive this year through the month of November It did really well. It blew away its goal of the thousand dollars A charity raised for children. So that was great. So congratulations Timmer I'm really happy to be a part of it Somebody did win all of the the prizes and so actually just recently boxed up the Sightline figure to send off to the winners. So thanks to everyone who participated in that Hello, Bader Ray Bob. Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm missing a lot of a lot of comments here I'm sorry. You're having a blah day Rob. I thought so I saw somebody having a blah day there I don't know if I can you know improve your day a lot I've been pretty exhausted today myself. I stayed up way too late last night working on the next review So I'm trying to get the next review video ready So yeah, I stayed up half the night last night working on that and then I worked all day today And I'm pretty tired, but it's okay. It's gonna be worth it Not necessarily because the next review video is gonna be you know big and spectacular But it will be done. That's the good thing it'll be done Hey, Joe motion videos. How you doing? Matt I don't think anybody's gonna nominate me for American Idol. Oh, yeah Byron Joe motion videos also donated a prize for that charity drive and hey, you know, it did great You know, it raised a lot of money for kids and that's fantastic Hello, Michael Michael Bassett Say we got a pretty good group in here Wayne, how you doing? Oh Thanks, Wayne. Yeah, I got to work on the next comic book review today. Thanks for reminding me And Project dark core. How are you doing? Okay, so hey now that everybody's kind of here, let's take a moment and talk about Zanzibar Because I'm interested in hearing what you guys think about Zanzibar You know what I'm doing the reviews. It's kind of like I can say it's kind of a solitary Activity I'm expressing my thoughts and ideas But I don't get to know what your thoughts are until it goes up. So Now now's my opportunity to hear what you guys think about Zanzibar interesting Character green yeti loves Zanzibar and all the dread knocks. I'm pretty big fan of the dread knocks myself Some of the later one. Well, you know, Naga Hyde is kind of funny That like the expression on his face is just kind of cartoony The early dread knocks I like a lot, but you know the dread knocks were always just a little, you know off But yeah fat cat. He has beautiful hair. Yeah Ripper is Shane's favorite. I think my favorite is buzzer. Hey Jenna, how you doing? I think I Think my favorite is buzzer because I think just because buzzer fascinates me at he Is or was an intellectual who just kind of went off, you know But I mean there's some intelligence there With buzzer and yet he's still as crazy and destructive as all the other dread knocks It's it's like if either a beavis or but head had a PhD But they were still, you know beavis and but head Do you need a shampoo and condition Zanzibar's ponytail, you know, that's probably a joke But if if the doll hair is all messed up I do under I understand that washing and conditioning it will help, you know restore it. Oh That's okay, Jenna. I'm glad you're here Who else has the Thunder Machine I have Thunder Machine although I Apparently the antenna for my Thunder Machine has gone AWOL, you know, I've been having an issue with that some vehicle parts and accessories Are not where they're supposed to be for instance, you know, I have the AGP the iron grenadiers AGP You know complete Pristine I assembled it myself first time it was ever assembled Put all the stickers on myself and I'll be damned if there isn't a missile missing It's a missing missile and I have no idea where it is I have not been picking the thing up very much and moving it around I have taken it anywhere where it would have dropped a missile. It's been on a shelf and yet I Have no idea where it is. It's just vanished How do you feel about mixing and matching Joe body parts to customize figures Now that you're an adult collector Used to do as a kid is still doing now Michael has asked an interesting question For well, first of all, I love doing it as a kid. I think I've said before that kept me and GI Joe probably a Year longer than I otherwise would have been it gave us something new and fun to do with our GI Joe's So I used to love to do it and I did that a lot I don't really do it now mainly because I don't have like the time to do it if I were to Customize figures. I'd really want to do a good job of it And I feel like, you know, it's a skill that you have to develop and I just don't have time to do that I've seen some really awesome customs. I would only customize with like common figures Or like beater figures that, you know, they're a lost cause anyway They're in such poor condition that they're not really even collectible Those I would I probably customize with those But I would I wouldn't you know, I wouldn't mind trying my hand at it if I had the time But I don't have the time because I do things like stay up all night working on videos So, yeah, that's that's how what I think about that Trying to decide what to get for Christmas the Mahler the more hydrofoil or the Tomahawk well, I tell you what The Mahler I think has more hard to find parts. It depends if you're getting it complete The Mahler is gonna be the one that is gonna if you get the Pieces all there and complete That's gonna be the one that probably the biggest prestige piece in your collection but If I were to just pick one that I think looks the best on the shelf I like the Tomahawk the Tomahawk is really cool. I just personal preference thing I'd probably go for the Tomahawk, but if you know if you're looking for like a really nice collector piece The the Mahler is tough to beat anyway, let's see Green Yeti loved the GI Joe movie good. So did a lot of other people Nogahide has funny moments in the deep animation Yeah, I am I'm looking for I you know, I don't know that I will necessarily like the Nogahide figure, but it's one I'm kind of looking forward to reviewing because I think it will be a fun review So I think I'll have fun with that one fat cat was once a man He was once a man, but now he's a fat cat Toy ploy is putting together pocket memories five I like toy ploy. It seems like a really cool guy I mean he's got a really nice channel and what a cool niche he has for his channel doing Repair videos That's something that a lot of people can use in reference to help fix broken stuff in their own collection It seems like he's really got a nice niche there and he just seems like a pretty cool guy Seems like he'd be a cool guy to hang out with Yeah, yeah, he's doing pretty well, so yeah, I Can you know, it's really interesting to me to see what YouTube channels take off and which ones don't and it's It's sometimes it's a little bit of voodoo because I see some people put a lot of work into some YouTube channels And it doesn't really take off and then I see some people put like Very little effort into channels and that and it explodes and so you know You can't predict what the viewing public will prefer you just have to you know You have to produce something that that comes from the heart and you know Put your best out there and and hope for the best But there are some channels that you know, I'm really glad to see are doing well You know, I'm just I like a success story I like to see when When people that I think are good decent and you know genuine people actually succeed That's nice to see I like that. I one thing I like you about YouTube is that he gives an opportunity for you know, regular people to produce shows and And that's nice something that's a little less manufactured is nice to see Convention chosen covers fit into the modern vehicles That were re-released like the awestriker Eagle Hawk Tom Hawk secret rebel wants to know if vintage figure figures will fit and reissued Modern vehicles and I for the most part, I believe they should I don't really see any reason why they wouldn't Green Yeti was once a child me too It was a long time ago. Oh Yeah, yeah Not a lot of booze back there. I've been too busy to drink When I drink and edit the video doesn't doesn't come out so well Then I have tried that I've tried to like okay, I'm in the middle of editing this video. It's really long You know, I'll have a you know a little bit of bourbon or I'll have a couple glasses of wine That's when the mistakes slip in that's when the mistakes happen. I End up singing and it's okay if I sing while I'm editing because nobody can hear it Yeah, so I hope everybody liked the The the Zanzibar review sorry about the singing I you know, this is what happens when you know You get to run your own show I had the idea I was reviewing a pirate the idea popped into my head Pirates of Penzance, you know, what's a song from Pirates of Penzance that I could do for the show And it just it was too good an idea. I couldn't pass it up So even though I can't sing it's my show and nobody can stop me Except now I've promised to not do that anymore. So there you go Somebody asked how the family was the family is doing really well. Thanks for asking my oldest daughter is at work And Susan and my younger daughter are picking up food. So they should be back with dinner soon So everything's doing well Everything's starting to look a lot like Christmas around here Except for this room Because all of my stuff is still here. So I really kind of need to get the next review video done So that I can clean up all this stuff put it away because Christmas stuff needs to go in here Let's see Jay's trailer asked if I have the retaliator helicopter. I do not have the retaliator helicopter yet I've seen it. There was a local shop that has it Or had it they don't have it anymore. It was not complete and not a good condition That's as close as I got to getting it. So that it's still a box I haven't checked off yet And somebody mentioned the chrome Skyhawk this the sky patrol skyhawk. I have it right over there Should I Orderly alley viper asked should I do a GI Joe Christmas display? I think that's a great idea You could do a GI Joe nativity Where let's see, how would you do that even? I think Lady J would be Mary and Flint would be Joseph and the little baby you could do use like Polly the parrot. I don't know Get some wise guys in there, you know, hey GI Joe had plenty of animal companions You could have the whole menagerie there You know, I'm just spit ball in here I Greenie any asks if I know black major. I do not know black major personally. I know who he I mean I don't know his secret identity. I know of the person, but no, I don't know him personally Sergeant slaughter. Yes, Sergeant slaughter gonna you'll have to you'll have to have an extra large, you know Cradle for him. That'd be hilarious. Somebody get on customizers get on that Javier Gonzalez says asked do I still want to get a sealed flag? I was okay. Here's that's a good question That's a good question A sealed flag is sealed items in general If I got something Important that sealed like the flag I wouldn't open it because you know, I know the collectors want that stuff And I don't want to reduce the number of sealed Items that are in circulation But I don't get as much enjoyment out of leaving the toy in the box as I do Having the toy out so I can actually touch it and play with it So the answer to that is sort of, you know, it would be really cool to have a sealed flag But but ultimately I don't know if I would I don't know what I would do with it I don't collect meant in seal box. I know a lot of collectors do and more power to them But it's just not my thing. I really enjoy, you know, the the tactile experience of Holding the toy and handling the toy That I I like that aspect of Collecting and I would miss it if I left all of them in their boxes and on their cards Yeah, you know, good point, you know, do you got to do a Cobra? Nativity to somebody's got to do a Cobra one as well Jenna says she enjoyed the viewing of the movie and maybe I could do the mass device or the weather dominator You know, that was kind of fun It was an experiment I wasn't sure how it was gonna go and I have to like I have to keep the volume kind of low because If the audio comes through too much on the live stream, it could get a copyright hit So I had to keep the volume low enough that it wouldn't pick up a lot of the volume. So So if you Thank you So if you You know, if you if you watch the video and you're not watching the episode along with it Then it looks like people You know kind of staring at the screen, but I think it's fun. I would like to do it again So I just So my tentative answer would be yes. Yes, I will do that maybe not those specific episodes but something like that in the future and I think that would be That would be fun How do you against all this when it says when you play music, there's no copyright beef. Well, sometimes Sometimes I do get a copyright hit for music and when that happens I have to go back and change it or Usually It'll let me know when I upload the video if content ID has detected any Copyrighted content that way I could just go back and And use something else most of the time though it's not it's not a problem and Like the music I use for like background music and intro music and stuff like that That's all royalty-free music anyway. So I That's not a problem. All right. Yeah, we have a Hertz doughnuts downtown. Oh Isaac asks a good question What do you think of Hasbro's woes could it be the end of gi Joe for Hasbro? Good question And I'm not sure Hasbro seems to be a lot worse off than We thought they were and That's it I Have a hard time seeing Hasbro as failing because of that But they could have a Few tough years What needs to happen for Hasbro is they need to Transition from Primarily, you know plastic toys to To like more of an entertainment company producing movies video games stuff like that because You know the plastic doesn't sell Like it used to and I honestly I don't think it ever necessarily will it I think it'll always be around but Kids in the future are just not gonna do Plastic toys as much as we did and I think Hasbro realizes that and I think that's one reason why they've been Really pushing their movie Ventures and putting their properties into movies. They I think as a company They feel like they really need to do that in order to you know Set themselves up for success in the future So that's one reason why I think Like the gi Joe movie for Hasbro really needs to happen and it really needs to be successful They need to you know, they need to set themselves up as more than just a toy company if they're going to survive so Yeah, those are my thoughts about it. I don't think it'll necessarily be the end of gi Joe what I think What I think now is Hasbro really needs these next few movies Transformers gi Joe all of them really needs those movies to be successful and needs to transition more into entertainment then Rather than focusing on toys at least primarily on toys. I'll probably always make toys but But yeah, I think that the demise of toys are us really hurt them. Yeah I'm gonna be optimistic for the Transformers movie. I'm crossing my fingers. I'm hoping it'll be good Hey, Carol act nice to see you Yeah, I said a Seymour says hit that like button I Thanks everyone for joining and thanks for joining the conversation We started out the video by talking a little bit about Zen Zanzibar by the way I tried to make sure I didn't call Zanzibar Zandar in the video because in my head I kept thinking Zandar when trying to say Zanzibar and I think I avoided that mistake But I'm not a hundred percent sure Yeah So I started off the video. I wanted to get everybody's thoughts about about Zanzibar the pirate By the way, what do you think about the air skiff? You know the air skiff. I mean it could make sense as like a Like a water skimming vehicle, you know for the swamp like the chameleon swamp skier, but I mean they really did Advertise the market of the thing as a as an air vehicle in the comic book whenever it appeared it was always flying Carol act doesn't like Zanzibar, you know, and I get that I really get that I mean I understand why people might not like Zanzibar But I mean you get the figure and look at the thing and look at how much they How much effort they put into it and and like effort they put into Dreadnought Pirate I mean, it's I mean, it's almost like they were Introducing, you know some new important character. I mean this guy has tons of paint applications like extra You know effort in the sculpting nice details It's this it's a really, you know from a Design an aesthetic perspective. It's a really well done figure, but It's Zanzibar. Yeah Did I say did I say did I call him Zandar again, man? I haven't I'm having a hard time getting that out of my head at the top not Yeah Wait the the force awakens fins speeder looks good for the Zanz with for the Zanzibar with a bit of paint Oh interesting. I'll have to look that up Hi 117. How you doing? Brandon would like a review of the Resolute movie live that could be fun, too I like Resolute that'd be cool So yeah, I mean I don't know how often I'll do it But I'll try to do more of those live viewings It's one downside of doing the live viewing is it's much harder or basically impossible for me to keep track of Of the chat while I'm watching so I can't interact with you guys Green Yeti is in Vegas try not to lose all your money and Stay away from the showgirls Live reading. Hold on. What are you saying? Should have done a live reading sit there and read silently good idea, you know, this is that's the kind of idea that Can really be a success on YouTube people like that offbeat stuff Green Yeti a lot of people smoking weed. Well, just you know Be careful about that kind of thing More fun to read dramatically from the Hama comics. I think that would be kind of a fun idea, too Reading the Hama comic books like a like a dramatic reading that could be fun Mmm, I'd have to give that some thought. What's my favorite deluxe figure? All right, let me think about the ones that were deluxe figure you had like Zartan and sergeant slaughter and for some reason Zanzibar and And Serpentor You know, it's a top choice between Zartan and sergeant slaughter Excuse me. I Really like both of them. I'd have a hard time choosing between Zartan and sergeant slaughter and I like them for different reasons. So It's hard to rank them, but I like I like both of those I You know and I have such great memories of Zartan It might be Zartan that might be it Although, you know Don't tell the Sarge that if anybody sees the Sarge Tell them that That's my favorite one. In fact, that's my favorite figure ever Even though it's not really but just tell him that it is Hey, by the way, I get to meet sergeant slaughter. I'm gonna get the meat sergeant slaughter at Joe Fest next year So that's gonna be really cool the The biggest thing I want to get out of Joe Okay, I want a lot of big things out of Joe Fest But one of the big things I want to get out of Joe Fest is that I want to get sergeant slaughter on camera Saying slaughterize it That would be yeah, that would be the best thing ever Carol act Joe Fest is in Augusta, Georgia It's in Georgia Augusta I'm not familiar with Augusta But they did a show last year and it was very successful and they're having some fantastic guests Larry Hama will be there Kirk was again will be there sergeant slaughter will be there along with a whole lot of other folks And I will be there. They're actually giving me a Table and they're giving me a panel and the pan if you go you got to go to my panel Because I'm gonna have some stuff to announce at the panel. I'm already working on it. So It should be a lot of fun. So, yeah, there's some cool stuff coming. Oh, yeah Genesis Buzz Dixon will be there too. That is great. I would love to meet Buzz Dixon Please nobody ever show him my review of the movie. I feel kind of bad because I Kind of said that the movie that he did Is not very good. I feel bad about that. I got to be honest. I got to be honest but But the buzz Dixon seems like a really cool guy. Hey and Benny saw Buzz on Sunday. That's cool you know, it's being a reviewer can be a little tricky because You know, you got to be honest and frank and sometimes that's may lead to being a little bit harsh But you know, I don't necessarily get a lot of joy from Telling someone that the thing that they made I don't think is very good. I don't like to do that That's not my favorite thing but but I actually do have something right here in front of me that is pretty good. I have this So this thing came in The mark below mo ultimate guide third edition is Here I've had it for a couple weeks now So I've had a good chance to look it over. I mean, I may not have seen every tiny detail in it But I've seen a lot and so now, you know, you will be getting a review of this You will be getting a review of this very soon so Look forward to that and Since this came out Since this came out Hey, who asked it? Hey guns are the answer. You can always They're there is fairly inexpensive so you can always get one of your own and Since these came out the prices for the second edition have come down a little bit So the second edition is now a little easier to get And I've had the second edition for a long time as an electronic copy I've had an e-book of the second edition Not the easiest thing to flip through But now I actually have a hard copy which is very nice now One thing that is important is that most of the information in here is the same as in here But there are a few updates and in my review of it I will point out some of those updates. So I think it's really cool to have both So yeah, that's coming I like this is this is cool, you know before I was able to get like a physical hard copy of The book, you know, I was doing basically all my research online which It's it's all right, but It's having actual an actual physical book to like flip through and you know look at the pictures and You know kind of scan through like that until you find the thing you're looking for It's it's a little it to me it makes research a little bit easier And and it's just it you can do things with the book that it's just not as easy to do with the Google search So I really like having the thing and you know, I'm an old person So this whole thing about you know, actually having physical tangible objects, you know, I'm still I'm still in that era I'm still I'm still analog If you play the GI Joe movie while listening to the Pink Floyd lyric The wall it sinks. Okay. Well, that's cool. Actually, that would be kind of cool play the movie while Listening to the wall That could be fun. That could be fun. I used to really like Pink Floyd. I went through a Pink Floyd phase I think most people go through a Pink Floyd Floyd phase He goes through your Pink Floyd phase. You go see your Led Zeppelin phase and then you know a few other phases The Wizard of Oz Joe Joe motion still what writes on stone tablets now, you know that new fangle paper with the pens pencils I Still haven't figured those out Yeah, a grateful dead phase Yeah, oh, hey, who's in a huge? Oh Kerouac is in a Huey Lewis phase. Well, you know, I gotta say something Huey Lewis really knew how to write a pop song He could write a pop song the hooks in those songs, you know, that was that was something else Read a comic like cyber tiger. I remember what cyber tiger did the comic reading. Yeah, that was that was really cool All right now we're talking about music Comfortably numb best guitar solos. Yeah, that's that's a great song now You guys are gonna make me nostalgic about all the music that I Have listened to I still listen to music sometimes. I don't listen to music as much as I used to because Actually, like I'm spent a lot of time editing video and Having music going make I can't hear the audio as well. So yeah Wish Huey Lewis had written a song for the GI Joe movie, you know, that's another good point The Transformers movie had weird Al Yankovic, you know, why couldn't we have gotten a weird Al, huh? huh a cold slither phase You know that cold slither song is actually kind of catchy it is a Wild tale of me as a teen. I don't have any. I was not a rebellious teen. I really wasn't Didn't really hit my rebellious phase until I was in my 20s Which is a bit late. I was a late bloomer but Yeah, oh Hey wearing a cold slither t-shirt Queen best songs from flash Gordon Highlander well, I mean from flash Gordon the theme song is the iconic one and from From Highlander Highlander is another movie I really liked And what was oh Man, I gotta think now I'm blanking Queen songs in Highlander Now I'm blank. I can't remember the titles of the song see what you people have done to me Green Yeti is going through a queen phase. That's a good phase to go through Queen was a great band but Highlander is a movie that I must have watched a hundred times I We had it on VHS and I wore that thing out come to think of it. I still have it on VHS a different VHS In fact, I don't have it on DVD. I only have it on VHS Who wants to live forever? Yeah, that's okay. That's a good one But Trubius who wants to live forever? That's okay. I picked that one. That's the best song TNT by excellent Killer Queen great song Princes of the universe the the opening song of the movie Excellent it really grabs you right at the beginning really really cool song you know Highlander is like a movie that's perfectly made for You know preteen boys because You know, there's tons of violence and sword fights and in their boobies and It's like it's perfect for you know for a boy, you know It I wore that tape out It was it I enjoy the movie now I'm going back and watching the movie again I don't know that it necessarily holds up as well As it used to but I still liked it a lot. I can still watch the movie and enjoy it Now how we get talking we're supposed to be talking about GI Jeff Get off on that. What have I got nearby that we can get back on track talking about GI Joe? Oh, hey here I Started doing this. I was keeping on making all my notes for the reviews electronically But I because that was taking a long time. I started doing this. I Went back to doing it the way I did it like three years ago And this is my note. These are my notes on Xander or Zanzibar. See I did it again These are my notes on Zanzibar And you know, there was a time when I thought you know, hey, I wonder if anybody would want these I could like give these away to someone But then I thought okay if I did that You will you would see All the dumb mistakes that I have in these notes that I have to hopefully fix before I you know Before I actually put them in a video. So do I really want to send someone a list of all the making a video Brandon Knight how much is the third edition book? It was under $30 when I got mine I don't know how much it's running right now. Hey, why don't I check? Let me see 45 after taxes it could be that I don't know I don't remember. Let's see Gwee day Yeah, yeah, Joe a I Be Oh, Mo. Oh look at okay It looks like Amazon has it discounted at $22.48 So yeah, that's what it's going for twit right now on Amazon. It's at $22.48 which I think is pretty good deal. It is really nice to do this live stream I really enjoyed this And doing the live movie viewing was fun, but I missed the interaction with you guys So this is nice. I I'm happy to see you guys again and be able to do this again. Oh, hey, I got something auction my review notes Sure, why not? Okay, I got something I got these these are the little That came in the action stars cereal That featured starduster which I believe is his only vintage comic book appearance is in these little things And so I got them obviously in preparation for The starduster review but But But they're sealed They're sealed, and I really want to open them and they're not super right But I feel I would feel guilty about opening them because I mean it's some day some day All of this stuff will be returned to the community. I'm all I'm gonna die eventually hopefully not soon and you know You Susan kids aren't gonna keep this stuff around it'll all be returned to the community one way or the other and I would feel bad returning opened comic books To to the community when they could have gotten you know nice sealed examples Even though these are not that uncommon. I still still would feel bad about opening them But I really want to open them because I want to read them So anyway Seymour lives in New Zealand. Hello, New Zealand from the United States. Oh Matt has not heard of the cereal yet Gijo had action stars cereal. I think that started in either 1986 or 1987 Action stars cereal Had Gijo on the box The cereal itself were just little star shapes. That's all it was And it was a corn base and my recollection is it tasted kind of like Captain Crunch is my memory But they had really cool boxes You know nice Gijo art on the boxes and starduster Actually appeared on one of the boxes so that's kind of cool if you like starduster and You know you can get these these little comic books, you know that back when they would give away prizes inside the boxes of cereal There you go Yeah So okay, see yeah, mr. T sir. If you had a children's property in the 80s. You probably got a cereal Brett says I think the starduster comics are scanned somewhere online. Yeah, you're probably right You're probably right and say I absolutely could read them without opening these But you see I want to open them Because I want to actually touch them and handle them and flip through them and you know, they're probably not even gonna be that good but But it I I want to open. I'm not gonna open them, but I'd really like to Yeah, so anyway, yeah, I got that recently what I also get oh yeah You got Got my starduster file card I Forgot about the when I took the photo of starduster this morning I forgot about the pocket patrol pack Some stardusters came with the version of the pocket patrol pack and I forgot to put that in the picture Brandon has a shirt from guns and roses that he got from Axel himself. That's awesome. Oh Kevin sends a super chat. Oh, thank you. I watched Highlander recently for the first time in years It still holds up. It's 10 euros worth of still holds up Thank you very much Kevin And you know, I love Highlander it's It was it was a very influential movie In my personal life. Hey, it's comic tropes here Somebody said somebody said somebody said somebody said hi comic. Oh, hey comic tropes is here How long till we get a review of Ninja Force? Piledriver Good question Good question I'm not really sure Oh comic tropes is a $5 superchats What about a text review of GI Joe Street Fighter 2 for your patrons If not a video review, I would consider that I would consider that I just I mean, I don't here's the thing. I don't want to buy Street Fighter toys because I don't want just because I don't want to buy street Street Fighter toys Yeah, because then I would own Street Fighter toys and I'm sorry I know you guys some of you guys love Street Fighter and you keep on loving Street Fighter I'm not telling you to stop loving Street Fighter But it's just not something I especially want to get in my collection Yes, Green Yeti. What's up? Comic tropes says I think Street Fighter 2 counts as vintage GI Joe toy line. Well, technically. Yeah, it does because I mean they even advertised it together but Just that's I got to draw the line somewhere Um Green Yeti pities the fool that doesn't like a lobbyist he pitted the fool pitted fool You know mr. T that was Anybody remember the the cartoon for mr. T. I used to really enjoy that You're fine comic tropes is cool Did I enjoy reviewing the animated movie? I did enjoy reviewing it I didn't necessarily enjoy watching it, but I did enjoy, you know, putting the review together Hey guys, how you doing? I Enjoyed putting the review together Because I had like an idea in my head of how it was gonna turn out and what I wanted to do and what I wanted to Say and more or less it came out the way I wanted it to so I was very happy about that Yeah Reviewing the live action movies in the future Yeah, you know I Think I would like to do that. It would be fun to do that The only thing that that will hold me back necessarily of doing more movie reviews is the time that it takes to do them I mean it is really time-consuming To do the review and to edit it So I'd have to do it at a time when I have like a stretch Like if I take a week off and I have an extra week to look to put it together That's when I might do another Movie review. It just takes a little longer than a typical review at least for me because I'm not used to Reviewing movies. It's not the typical thing that I do. So You know somebody more experienced doing that it probably be quicker and be easier Cobra fall a la la Where is a good place to buy Joe stuff well you can always resort resort to eBay which I often do there are some Facebook groups where you can buy Joe toys Look for vintage toy stores and toy dealers in your area Always try to support local business if you can so you may have a toy dealer in your area and if you're Starting out, you know starting out your collection it The way to get figures the cheapest per figure or vehicle. I guess for that matter is to buy lots Buy them in lots and you'll pay you usually will pay less per figure if you buy them in a group You have to shell out more money at a time, but in the long run you'll save money. Oh Yeah, Kokomo toys in Indiana I haven't been there, but You know everybody knows about Kokomo toys in Indiana That is a place that I need to go Yeah, great in humanoid's movie. Yeah, see you could have made an inhumanoid movie out of it That's that would have been a good use of it And everybody knows how I feel about Cobra law But I don't tell anybody they they shouldn't like Cobra law because I mean look at all these some You know, there's been some really impressive Cobra law cosplays and you know, I don't want to take that away from anybody Jeremy Dale used to do signings at Kokomo toys cool Illustrated some GI Joe comics. I wonder if they have any of his work on their walls. Good question. Hey Chris from comic tropes if I ever make it out there, I will try to look for that. That's that's an interesting question So hey, I guess we're closing in on our hour I would actually love to go longer than an hour, but like I said, I stayed up half the night working on a video So I'm pretty tired So I will let you guys go in about five minutes But hey, we had a great group this time. Hey, thanks everyone. Thanks for being cool. Thanks for chatting with me Thanks for looking at this stuff with me Oh, hey, I got something here Since I grabbed my my to mark below mo GI Joe books also on that shelf was Mark below mo's Star Wars ultimate guide And so that's a thing he did Star Wars as well now personally. I like the Joe books better For obvious reasons, but if you were trying to get into Star Wars collecting that might be a decent Way to start good good Checklists that you could get so yeah Resolute 10 mark 10 part series by Warren Ellis is one of my favorite GI jokes. Yeah, the resolute series is really good I've seen it a couple times now and it's it's it's nicely done. It really is It's it has I mean the style the it's It's well done. I when as soon as I start talking about it. I I kind of stumble over my words because I There's so many things that you can talk about about it That's a good reason why it may be something that I should you know do a live viewing That could be fun, but it's It's really it's it's really good Marvel and DC collects more Star Wars than GI Joe. Well, I'll tell you Star Wars is where it's at right now The collectible market for Star Wars is going nuts but Yeah So it's getting close to Have your guns on us any guests at your booth at Joe Fest. Don't know yet. Don't know yet There are still a few things to plan out, but you know, there's gonna be some special stuff at Joe Fest and Some special announcements if you want to hear things first got to come to Joe Fest Will I have hoodie cocoa t-shirts? I probably should hey, you know, that's a nice idea. Maybe I should like come up with a Joe Fest exclusive t-shirt design that I can do Yeah, I'll think about that. I'll think about that Cocoa more toys is four hours From Brett close enough to be tempting but just far enough to do the entire yes, right That's essentially eight hours round trip of driving. That's That's a long day. That's a long day What do you what do I think is next for the GI Joe brand? Right now it's wait for the movie. That's that's that's what's next for the GI Joe brand and We talked a little bit about Hasbro's struggles Lately and because of those struggles. I think Hasbro really needs these movies to Work out that read they really need these movies to be successful. So hopefully that Means good things for the GI Joe movie Maybe that means extra effort for the GI Joe movie because Hasbro now I think really is putting their eggs in that basket Have I picked up any of the loyal subjects deformed Joe figures? I think I have a I got one of the blind boxes of Crimson guard somewhere. I don't know where it is, but I do have that one. I don't have any of the others I just got the one Coco Coco Anyway, I'll It's about an hour now guys So I am going to let you all go. Thank you everyone for being here.
