 Hey Green Eddy, how are you doing? I'm just going to get the link and post it where it goes. Hi Isaac, how are you doing? Hey everybody, Eric, everybody can hear me okay? I'm outside again. I just thought it'd be easier to record out here. Hi chat, just trying to get the link to post on Facebook, but of course this thing is not cooperating with me. Yeah, hi Brian and Andrew and Josiah. Hey thanks guys. Sorry I started a couple minutes late. I was trying to get everything set up. Thanks everybody for coming. Hey Benny, well I've got Pepsi. I don't have any peanuts. Hi Kerouac, how you doing? I know, always late. Hey ODC, how's it going? Oh did I type weekly? Oh typo. Hold on, let me see if I can fix that. Wow, well it might be a weekly. Hold on, let me see if it'll let me fix it. I'm not sure if it'll let me fix it, so it might have that typo in there until the thing is done. I think it might have autocorrected me. Hi chat, yeah that's what it was. Let's see, will it let me edit that? I don't know, let me see. Well now I feel just plain silly. I should have looked closer before hitting go. Oh yeah, I think it'll let me fix it. Hey look at that, I think it's going to work. Thanks Ronnie. Hey Pensive Ruin and Jenna Hyde. And yeah, also I will point out I haven't figured out how to fix the mirror thing, so I'm still mirrored. Okay, hymns of babble. Hi, good day to you too. Hi Steve from Seattle. Well there's one place I'd love to be right now. All right, I'm still trying to postal the links. Hey R, R Hyal. Hey dem guts. You're just talking to Strident? Strident's a great guy. I love Strident. You know it's been really nice. Hi JJ, and Javier. Hey Javier Gonzalez, I love your major blood. That's really cool. Okay, okay that should put the links where they're supposed to go. All right and we can focus. How's everybody doing? Super plum. Thank you. I'm glad you like it. Feeling better? Not really, but thank you. I'm glad that you're glad you're thinking of me. Hi Mark. Are you new to the stream? I'm glad you like the videos. Thanks Josiah and Mark. Yeah, thanks Rans, me too. I'm hanging in there. That's all I can say. I can make no other promises. And I don't, you know, I probably said, hey Sir Kowski, that's a pretty nifty backward yo-jo. I like that. See, since I'm mirrored, I can read that right way. Oh that's the last time you can be there Marcel. I'm sorry. Well we will miss you then. I hope you had a good vacation. Okay, okay we're ready to focus now. You missed out on a globulus? Oh man that's too bad. Well Chad, your eyes might not be working, but in fact this mirror, this image is mirrored, so yeah. I'm the mirror universe HCC. I still haven't figured out how to fix that. I've looked around at the settings and I'm not sure, but I'll figure it out. I'm glad you liked the headman review, Rand. Thank you. And Green Yeti, I will bet that globulus loves you too. He's just that kind of guy. He's very giving. Well hey, cool. I didn't have anything specific to talk about here. I wanted to just make sure that I connected with you guys and kept up with you guys. Right now, from my perspective, I'm looking at a dog that is lying on the patio that has not noticed that there are two bunny rabbits right over there just hanging out. And there's nothing this dog likes more. I don't know if you can see it. There's nothing this dog likes more than chasing those bunny rabbits. So I wonder when she will notice that they are there and go try to kill them. Hi, Rob. Hi, Matt. Oh, that those stairs. Yeah, that was for a pool, but we don't have the pool anymore. We just brought that over when we moved because it's actually kind of useful. But we don't you know, I never think about like the stuff that's in the background here. But yeah, that's yeah, that's just right now, it's just hanging there and holding up a couple of garden shears. I was trying to think of a topic, but I couldn't really think of one. Well, there is a topic actually Susan suggested a topic, but I'll wait just a minute until everybody gets here so we can all talk about it. I'm glad that you're enjoying the Tuesday show, Benny. I appreciate that. Oh, thanks. Yeah, we got a little bit of rain. So the lawn is a little bit overgrown at the moment. But yeah, now the dog has just seen the rabbits. And let's see what she does. Oh, the headhunter video, the comic book. Yeah, chase the bunnies. Now that would at least be that'd be entertaining, right? That would at least be a good video. Juan, I'm glad that you liked it. Thank you. What figure am I looking for? Oh my goodness. I got to think about that. Right now I've been looking more at vehicle parts really than figures. But I need to go through and see what I'm missing. Some 90s stuff. But right now I'm thinking about vehicles at the moment. Oh, sorry, Ricky. You can recommend another content creator, but he charges a fee for his services. Well, you know, I'd always be interested in looking. It doesn't cost anything. Check it out and maybe it's worth it. I don't know. Yeah, okay. I actually recorded that Frederick the Eighth thing. I did that first because it was going to take a little bit longer, but I had fun with it. Oh, yeah, Toy Galaxy. Yeah, I need to catch up. I haven't watched a lot of other people's videos lately, but I need to catch up. Sorry, I missed that. Yeah, the Cobra Rage. That's something I got to get to. Victor Franco, you're late, so you get 50 demerits. You'll have to sit in the corner. So I've been talking a lot with Susan, my wife. I do that sometimes. I try to keep that to a minimum, but occasionally we do have to talk to each other. And I mean, we picked up some new patrons and we're looking to try to grow this channel and really kind of maximize it and, you know, make something of it. And I'm going to do my best and put my best effort into it, but she thought that I should put it out there and ask all of you for suggestions to improve the channel, things that you would like to see. I know that we've talked about that before, but maybe we can talk about it again. Hey, Mike. Oh, hey, yeah, Mike. Oh, what was that? Oh, my gosh, I can't remember the codename I gave Mike Murdock. Susan would like me to ask all of you guys what I can do to make the channel better, to make the channel worth your time, and to bring back comic books. Joe of the Month, yes, something like that. Okay, so these are all good suggestions. So you're all really smart people, so I'm going to just kind of take your suggestions and see what you got in mind. I will slaughterize it. I will do my best to slaughterize everything. The comic book reviews, yeah, I think that's probably number one, isn't it? I really enjoy the comic book reviews, and it's just, I hadn't been able to get back to them, but I think vehicle restorations, yeah, there's an idea. I haven't gotten too much into that, but I mean, I do sometimes have to restore vehicles, and so it wouldn't hurt to go through that process. Custom figures, okay, custom figures. Yeah, I was a big fan of the comic book as a kid, and in those earlier issues, the first few years, I'm more familiar with those than the later issues, so they're a little bit easier for me to review, actually, because I actually remember quite a lot about them, and I've gone back and read a lot of them more recently. Live cartoon episodes, you know, that's another thought that we had of, like, live riffing cartoon episodes, or the movie, the animated movie, so that's a thought that we've had. We'd have to be careful about a comedy doing that way. YouTube Transformers Review in Dutch. Oh, that's interesting. Versus episodes, okay. Yeah, I can do that, and it wouldn't be, like, super difficult to do, either. I'd also do, like, top five or top ten lists. I know people watch that, and, you know, those things, I've been reluctant to do them because it's just the way that I am. I feel like, okay, if I give a top ten or top five or something, it locks me into that, and I can't change my mind, because I do change my mind sometimes. But, you know, people seem to think those are fun, and they are fun, and they're not hard to do, and, you know, if you disagree with my top ten or top five, you know, it's fine, but maybe it can get some conversations started. G.I. Joe Transformer crossover, I mean, I could do that. I just need more Transformers. I don't have, like, I have zero Transformers. I really don't have any Transformers. I have some other toy lines. Your toy, my toy is against Joe Berg's. You know, that's one of the things that somebody brought up that we didn't do at Joe Con is do, like, a big, you know, play battle or something like that. I wish we could have done that, but just that weekend was hectic enough. Yes, a wish list. Yes, okay. Wish list is high on the agenda. That's another thing that I still need to do. Episode with commentary on the animated series. That seems to, I mean, that's an idea that really could work as long as I, as long as it doesn't get taken down by Hasbro and Flag for a copyright, doing like a whole episode like that. I mean, technically it probably is fair use, but it's a closer call than a lot of the stuff that I do now. But if I could do it, I would enjoy doing that. Hey, Kurt, glad you made it to another live episode. Joe's that died in the comics. Yeah. Joe's, and there were also some really great non-Joe characters that died in the comics, too. There were some great deaths, great deaths in the comics. And in the cartoon, who died? Who died? Headman died. They did kind of kill him pretty spectacularly, though. Copyright protection, yeah, they're copyrighted, yeah. But there are exceptions for fair use, for certain purposes, and of course, limited amounts of what you use. So I can use a clip, a panel, a page from the comic book. And that's not really a problem. But if I were to like reprint the whole thing, an entire comic book, obviously that would be a violation. Yeah, the cartoon reviews, because you do clips, he's using clips like smaller pieces rather than like the whole cartoon. You can get away with that. Commentary without showing the video, that might be a possibility. I could maybe swing that. Oh yeah, you know, we need to do something. We gotta do something. Alright, time out. Time out. This is important. This is my first opportunity to really publicly say this. I think we got to give Timmer from Half the Battle congratulations on reaching 1000 subscribers. He did it. I'm very happy for him. He's very happy. He should be happy. Great job Timmer. I'm still a big fan of that show. And I'm a supporter of that show. And I think he does a great job. So congratulations Timmer on hitting 1000. Welcome to the, to the three digit club, or the triple, well welcome to the 1000 club. Wow. I can't, I've forgotten how to talk. Welcome to the three zeros club. So triple digits, that would be, that would be 100. He's gotten past 100. Wow man. At some day, I hope to learn English. Yeah, it's a pretty great milestone and I'm very happy for him. So there you go. Congratulations Timmer, who I hope will watch this later because it's like super late at night in Belgium. And he really should be asleep. I hope he is. Although I was talking to him on Facebook just before I started this. So, so he might still be up. More into depth and with any difference between characters, personalities, between comics and cartoons. I think that's a good idea. I mean, if, yeah, trivialists, yeah, that's, I mean, there's something to that. There's something to that. It wouldn't be as difficult to produce, it wouldn't belong to produce as, as a regular review. But, you know, it, I think that people might like that. Hey, Mazdaf1, how you doing? Glad you made it. Sunbow versus DTI. That, there'd be a lot to talk about there. So these are, these are good ideas and I'm gonna process these and really think about what we can do to make things better. Because I mean, we've, we've gotten more support and I thank everyone for that. But with more support, I feel like I need to do a better job for you and give you more of what you want. So I'm going to try. Although in the short term, it may be more difficult to push out as much content as I have been. But, but I'm gonna do my best. Hey, Dennis, I'm glad you like, I hope you liked that. Thank you, Josiah. Why did change genders of characters? I guess, I mean, you're talking more like vintage versus modern and I don't really know as much about the modern. So, I don't know, I'd have to look into it. I know that some characters, genders were changed in the modern era. But, Ranz, I will try not to over exert myself. Op-ed pieces about various aspects of GI Joe, like Hasbro's handling of the brand, 12 inch. Okay, yeah, yeah, I mean, these are things that I have thoughts about, but they don't really fit necessarily in the regular format format of the regular review. Okay, Green Yeti, what was your idea? If I missed it, I'm sorry. Knockoffs, yeah. Short stories, show and tell Sunday, yeah, okay, okay. None of these are bad ideas. History of Galobulus. Well, at least it would be short, right? So, yeah, I'm not gonna rule that out. Fun School. I do have a little bit of Fun School and I certainly could, I know who to ask. Fun School, Ronnie certainly was a big help in that, in the spearhead review that we did. So, I could talk a little bit about Fun School. Airborne, yeah, I really like Airborne. I always have liked Airborne. When I first got the figure, something about the figure seemed special. Maybe it's because he had colors other than green. In that era, I still mostly associated GI Joe with green. So, that figure always seemed a little bit special to me. Eagle Force. Eagle Force. Now, who is doing, isn't it like Boss Fight Studios doing an update of Eagle Force? Or maybe they've already done it. I'm a little behind on the news. Red Laser Suppliers. Airborne and Duke. Yeah, in that era, you know, I really dug both of those figures. Duke, I got a little bit later because I didn't get him as a mail away offer. But by then, you know, he was, by the time he came out as a carted figure, he was really big. Like, the cartoon made him, you know, a very important character. A Google Hangout. Interesting idea. I hadn't thought of it. I'll think about that. I'll think about that. Yeah, ODC is in the house. We've got some very fine guests here. And now my dog's barking at something. She'll calm down. We have pedestrians and now the dog's got to bark at them. That's great. Yeah, I would think about a Google Hangout. It's just not something I thought of before. There's nothing wrong with that. I just hadn't thought of it. Well, if I would let the dog out of the fence, we wouldn't have a pedestrian problem. She'd take care of all of them. The GI Joe games. You know, I don't know as much about the GI Joe games. I'd have to really learn more about them. I mean, I know a little bit and I have a couple of them. But there's a lot more than what I have. And so, I mean, that might be a rich mine of material. Crazy legs. I mean, I don't hate you for hating crazy legs. I mean, night force crazy legs is a fantastic figure. My main objection with crazy legs would be the colors. But the night force crazy legs fixed that problem right up. That figure is an excellent, excellent figure. And I'm sorry, I may be missing some of your comments. I'm trying to read as fast as I can. When I showed Mrs. HCC my collection, what did she think of it? Well, okay. Actually, I didn't have this collection when we got together. If you look back at one of my throwback Thursdays, I posted a photograph of us from I think about 2002, when we were both much younger. And we've been together for a long time. And yeah, it wasn't a thing back then. So she's, instead of showing her this giant collection when we first got together, she has watched it grow. And I can tell you how that happened. I'll tell you how that happened. It was going through tough times. It was a really rough period. I found 4MBX257's videos on YouTube. I was talking about GI Joe on YouTube. And I found Kevin. And that really kind of sparked an interest in me, rekindled that passion I had for it. Hadn't, oh, am I glitching? Sorry about that. Rekindled the passion that I had for the line, high Oscar. And so I decided, okay, what I'm going to do, I started out with GI Joe in 1982. I will just get the 1982 figures. That's all. I don't need anything else. But it would be a nice little collection. And Susan was supportive of this. She says, fine, fine. And so I was going to get only the straight arm 1982 run. And that's it. The whole thing would fit on one shelf. No problem. But then what happened was on the eBay, I saw a his tank that was pretty cheap. And then I had to have it. But the thing is the his tank's not from 1982. And it's not a figure either. So I kind of had to redefine the parameters of my collection. So it, you know, then it was just, you know, I just wanted to get everything. But I did, I ran across these videos by collectible spectacle. This 18 part documentary, basically, of Air Devon, who was an amazing super collector. And she had nearly everything, both domestic US release and foreign from 12 inch to modern. And it was an incredible collection. And I still love watching those videos because it's just so immersive. It just puts you right in the middle of GI Joe. And you can just immerse yourself in it. And sometimes I just watch that to relax. But there is there was a point in that documentary where she said that the collection had just gotten too big. It wasn't fun anymore. And it was more fun when the collection was smaller. And that she wished she had limited it in the past before it kind of grew and essentially took over her entire house. Yeah, odc that now she doesn't have that collection anymore. She actually sold off, I think most of it. But I actually, I really took that lesson. And I chose to limit my collection to just vintage 82 to 94 and only the US domestic releases. There's a lot more out there that is really cool. And I'd love to have it. But just for the sake of my sanity, I've decided to limit it to that. And so I'm sticking with that the best I can. I've dipped a toe out of that every once in a while. But I'm really trying to stick with that. And yeah, it's a lesson that I took from that. And I hope that will make sure that collecting remains fun. The toys that made us, yeah, I thought that was a cool documentary. The GI Joe episode that I thought was good, oddly, my favorite episode so far is the Barbie episode. I didn't really know much about Barbie. But I learned so I mean, because I didn't know very much, I learned the most from that episode. That was really cool. But the GI Joe episode, I thought was good. But what's yeah, Marauder's Gun Runners. I know about that. Yeah. Jenna, your goal is 82 to 86. That's a that's a good that's a good range. That really is. And if I weren't going for like, the whole run, my limit would probably be close to the same. I might go over to 87 maybe, but that's a good range. Yeah, I don't tell anybody, but this is just an excuse to buy more toys. But not really. Well, it is an excuse to buy more toys. Let's not deny that. Reviewing these things gives me an excellent reason to buy new toys. But when I started doing the reviews myself, what I felt was that it's more fun for me to share what I have with everyone than to just like put it on a shelf. And I get a lot more enjoyment out of that, especially even though like what I have is less than what a lot of other collectors have. Other collectors have tons more than I have. And especially when I started out, I had my collection was really quite small. And at one point, I was even running out of stuff to review. But it was but it's more fun for me to to put it in front of the camera. And let's all talk about it. And that just like doubles the enjoyment for me. Oh, thank you. All right, this shirt. Okay. Okay. This was a custom shirt that was made for me by our my mental health people from the department I used to work for before they moved me. Well, we we got together and they, you know, they were not thrilled that I was moving. But they gave me this with the HCC 788 because they they know about my channel. And I'm the four star general there. And this this is kind of cool. This is the police 10 code for a mental health pickup. So I was very happy, very humbled by that. It was a very nice gift. I'm sorry. I'm missing some of your your comments. Sorry about that. A whale growing up. I probably did. Okay, I got to explain something else. Okay. My brother and I, of course, we got lots of GI Joes, lots of figures and vehicles. But we had a friend in the neighborhood, his name was Sam. And he also had lots of figures and vehicles. And we would kind of just put everything together and just kind of play with them all together. And so thinking back on it now, it's actually, it's hard for me sometimes to remember exactly what was his and what was ours, because we played with them all the same. So whoever had the killer whale, we all played with it a lot. So I've got a lot of enjoyment out of the killer whale. But I can't specifically remember if it was ours or if it was Sam. But I remember playing with it a lot. More old school to modern. I can try to do that. I might try to do that for some of my, for like mid week. And Mike, a collection of stuff you like, that's, I mean, that's, that's completely reasonable. Just getting stuff you like. I mean, you really have to be a completist to go after stuff that you don't like. So that's what being a completist does to you. Being a completist means you're going out there, you're hunting down things and spending money on stuff that you technically don't really like. Yeah, I'm sorry. We just got the cicadas started. Can you guys still hear me okay? I'll move you a little bit closer. Yeah, being a completist, I didn't think I was going to be a completist either when I started. But then this, I decided to do this project and it's, it's kind of grown. Collection tour video range viper. I would like to do that. The only issue I would have with doing that is that a lot of my collection right now is in boxes because I just, I don't have a lot of space. It's organized now. I've actually put a lot of effort into organizing things. But I'd have to maybe pull everything out and spread it out and like take you through everything. I might, I might try to do that in the reasonably near future. Born in 1980, so you got it in 87, 88. The first Joe's that you can remember. The Lynx, Wolverine, Havoc, Red His Tank, Wolf. That's good stuff. That's good stuff. Hey, human mechanism, how you doing? Okay, it's getting really loud out here. Sorry about that. You just got a full-time job? All right, USS Flagg. There you go. Thank you, Res Holly. Will you make a video about the vintage core? I would like to, I need to get more of them. They're generally not too expensive. I just haven't gone after them. I'll tell you what I was thinking of doing. I actually thought of doing like a history of the three and three quarter inch action figure. Going back to like Fisher Price, Adventure People, and then Star Wars, and then the O-ring figures, the Mego figures, the three and three quarter inch figures, and then carrying that forward to G.I. Joe, and then some of the G.I. Joe knockoffs with the core figures. Over the years, I've actually picked up a few figures here and there, that I would need for that, but that's actually, the more I look at it, that's a bigger task than I first realized. That will be more work than I originally thought that it would be, because there are actually quite a few lines that were in that scale. If I really wanted to trace it back to its roots, then I believe I'd have to take it back to Japan. I have to consider if I want to actually go and find Japanese figures, or use reference photos, or something like that. Of course, if I use reference photos, I have to be careful about copyright and things like that. Do I see Hawk as a blonde or having brown hair? Yeah, I've always thought of Hawk as blonde. Hoody Cocoa, hey, Delvis 78. That Hoody Cocoa thing, that's going to catch on. Fisher Price Adventure People, your jam prior to 83. Those were out when I was very little, and they were fun for little kids to play with. I mean, they were just the perfect size. They were a bit clunky, but they were good for small hands. A month of small play sets? I've got some. I could probably fill a month with the small play sets. I know Green Yeti wants a complete biography of Golobulus. Hey Byron, how are you doing? Yeah, Jeff, see, it's already caught on. I should just change the name of the channel. Where'd that come from? Chris from Comic Tropes threw that at me in a private message first, and then I used it in a video. Adventure People Van. Yeah, indestructible. Yo, those toys were made to be played with. They weren't messing around. They were sturdy. Come down to Dallas to review the gold head steel brigade. You know, it's been a while since I've been to Dallas. I wouldn't mind going there. Wouldn't mind being there now. I'd love to go tomorrow. But yeah, okay, sorry, I just had to reconnect there, so I don't know how much we missed. An animated episode from your drawings. Now that's, I hadn't thought of that. I'd have to look into how to do that. Yeah, true rugged play. Yeah, did Hasbro ever make figures of the twins and CG uniforms or the Baroness in a color other than black? Well, there was, I don't recall the twins being in Crimson Guard uniforms. And as far as the Baroness, they did do her in a couple of the colors. There was the chameleon figure that was black and red. But then there was a modern Baroness that was in the blue and goldish color that you see in the cartoon series on our first appearance. I think that was a modern era figure. I'd have to look it up to remember what version that is. Our own Joe Customs for review. Jag officer codename Matlock. That'd be cool. Yeah, you know, one thing that I wouldn't mind doing is getting you guys more involved and doing something like that, something that we can do together. And reviewing your custom figures would be, that would be fun. I will, I will consider that. Yeah, 97. Yeah, the 97th year reuse the mold. I'd have to look it up on Yojo to remember specifically what years. I'll stick electric. Thank you, sir. I am, I'm okay. I could be better. And for anybody that's wondering, first of all, it just got really loud out here, it will quiet down a little bit. Everybody still hear me? Okay. Hey, Chris. Okay, good. Good. Okay. For anybody that's wondering, I have made an appointment with the doctor so that I can get a little extra help. So this is a time when I need the extra help. So I'll be, I'll be getting that. So if anybody's wondering, I'm working on it. These are cicadas. It's a summer phenomenon. And I should have thought of that. It's that time of night when they come out and make this racket. And then when the sun goes down, then they shut up. Thank you, Mike. Yeah, thank you. Thanks, Byron. Yeah. Yeah, I'm realizing that. And yeah, I don't want to go too much into it, but it's it's something that I'm addressing. And you guys have been so supportive, and I'm so grateful for that. You wouldn't believe how many messages that I've gotten from people who, you know, relate to the my issues and kind of understand. And it's really encouraging to hear. So thank you, everyone. But I'll, yeah, I will, things will get better. But it's, it's going to be tough for a little while before they get better. It's going to be, it's, it's not going to be easy these next few weeks. There's just no way around that. But it is what it is. Thanks, Elvis. Yeah. Yeah, what a racket. Sorry, these insects are incredibly loud. And now I really wish I had recorded this indoors. Yeah, you guys, David, the offers of help that I've gotten have been, have been really appreciated. And I want, I want to be careful about asking too much or taking too much. I'm here because I want to, you know, I want to do this for you and with you. But I want to be careful about taking more that I'm giving. So to be truthful, after I posted the video, the last video on Sunday, I was very concerned that I just, that I'd made a mistake by saying anything about it at all. I don't want people to think that I'm, that I'm just trying to play for sympathy or anything like that. But on the other hand, I was really close to suspending the channel. And what I would not want to do is just disappear on you guys. And so I had to say something. I had to, I had to, you know, put it all out on the table and let you guys know what was going on. So I hope that it's taken in that spirit. Yeah. So this is, this is loud. But thank you, thank you all. It's not something that I like to talk about. But it's something that I had to. Thanks one. But please don't feel like you have to send anything. You know, I'm always happy for the help. But you know, I want you guys to be taken care of too. You know, I would never want you guys to send more or do more than you can. I do feel like, like this is something that we do together. I really do. I feel like this is interactive. Sorry, that this is interactive. And you know, it is kind of a collaborative thing. But at the same time, I want to make sure that that I'm giving, that I'm doing my part, and that I'm not taking too much. That it is something I'm always very conscious about. So but but thank you to everyone. See, what'll happen is they'll, they'll, they'll be quiet for a little while, and then they'll wind up again. It's a pattern. Okay, so next week, we're doing this indoors, because this is driving me crazy. Yeah, Javier, this, this fan community has been amazing. I mean, I always, through individual interactions and, and comments and things like that, always knew that we had a lot of really cool people in this fan community. But in the last few days, that's really, it's really opened my eyes to, to what kind of a great community we have. Is it hot here? Not really. We got some rain. So it really cooled everything down. It's been raining actually most of the week. So thanks, Jenna. Oh yeah, California is still burning. So why don't you all just kind of get your garden hoses out there and put all those fires out? I'm just kidding. I, I do hope that the situation gets a little better. So California is burning and New York is drowning. And here it's just really loud right now, enjoying actual seasons in Oregon. Man, I haven't been to Oregon since I was a kid. I'd like to go. New England. Always been a fan of the Patriots. Ohio is boring. I don't know. What's in Ohio? I can't think of anything. Oh, WKRP. Great show. Chad asks Oklahoma, right. Yes, I'm in Oklahoma. Oh, you have an uncle here. Okay. Hi, Tim. Yeah, I'm sorry about that. Next time, indoors next time. I should have thought about this. Hey, it was quiet when I started. But as the sun goes down, those guys get louder. How does Hasbro feel about G.I. Joe? I don't think they necessarily want to kill it off, but I'm not 100% sure they know what to do with it. So I'm hoping, I said this before, I'm hoping that these new movies they have coming up will revitalize the brand and refresh it. So I just I'm I'll believe it when I see it. But my hope is that they will figure out what to do with it because these last few years I just don't think they knew what to do with it. And it is still a valuable brand. It's a brand that could make them a lot of money if they do the right thing with it. Oh, Jeff, you bought a car out here. Oh, well, I hope we gave you a good deal. Thanks, Kurt. Yeah, the retaliation cardbacks that was I'm not I'm no modern expert, but I did get a couple retaliation figures and those cardbacks. Oh, man, I don't know. Yeah, thank you, Cicadas, for for dropping by. Our guests today are the cicadas. I hope they don't she raw or thunder cats it. I don't think they will. The reason that I don't think they will is because it is a military theme and that, you know, they're trying to go younger with a lot of those properties. And I just don't think you can do that with GI Joe. I think there's a bottom limit on how young you can go with your target audience. So I don't think they would go in that direction. But I do think it does need to be refreshed. I do feel like it needs to be revitalized a bit. Well, we've got a few more minutes. I usually try to have this go for an hour. And, you know, all you guys have done really loved your comments. You've been really helpful with your suggestions. I'm going to consider all of them and to see what we can do. And we'll see what we can do to expand, you know, rather than retreat, we'll figure out how we can move this forward. They will, they always stop after dark. I've noticed about this time of the evening, they're really noisy. And then after dark, they shut up. GI Joe resolute. Yeah, I've seen it. I thought it was good. I liked it. Have I been to Illinois or Missouri? Cheese. Okay. Illinois, I have because I went to Joe Conn in Springfield, Illinois. And then Missouri, I've been to a lot of times because I have an aunt that lives in Springfield, Missouri. So I've been to Springfield, Illinois, and I've been to Springfield, Missouri. Oh, and on the way to Springfield, Illinois, we stopped in St. Louis. So, yes, I've been to both of those places. See, we got one person in Illinois. He went to Joe Conn 15 last day and then haven't been to another one. And I'm sorry they're not doing any more Joe Conns. So, but maybe, you know, there's still this Joe Fest thing that I will be talking a lot about. Joe Fest in Augusta, Georgia next year. I will be there. They've invited me there. I'll have a table. I'll have a panel. And so I'm going to be all in on Joe Fest. It's looking really good. The guests that they have is looking really good. Yeah, HasCon is their replacement for the individual convention. It's not just Joe Conn, but it also replaces BotCon. But yeah, HasCon just ain't quite the same. Ricky, because Hasbro wanted to consolidate their conventions into one Hasbro convention, they did not renew the licenses for the individual convention. But there is, yes, Joe Fest in Augusta, Georgia coming up next year. I will be talking more about that as it gets closer. Yeah, I mean, me and the Jobar guys, we were hoping to get a panel at this Joe Conn this year. But we were declined for that. We were hoping to get even like press credentials. But again, the club didn't hook us up with that, which I mean, it's fine. But with Joe Fest, I mean, they are really, they're doing all the things that the Joe Conn organizers didn't do. So we're going to be having some fun, I think, in Augusta, Georgia next year. I am looking forward to that. Hello, Dominican Republic. Hello from the United States. Guys, it's closing in on an hour. So in about five minutes, I will be closing up. Before I started this, I was actually working on the next video, the next review. So I'm going to get back to that. I'm trying to keep up with my schedule. I may ask for a little help. And I may, I may have to take a week off just because I'm not quite prepared to do what I was planning to do for that week. So, you know, heads up, there may be a week without a full review, but I'll try to give you something anyway. So, David, thank you. Yeah, I'll be on here for another three or four minutes. But then I'll say good night to everybody. Oh, ODC, that's me, says, having help, I'll tell a creator any way I can. Keep that smile going, brother. I'm trying. Thanks for this stream. And thank you for showing up. And another great YouTube channel, if you check out ODC, that's me. I think you can just click on his name right there in the comments and go to his channel and check that out. ODC, that's me. You've done some live reviews, and that's really cool. I've been having a hard time keeping up with people's videos, but I'll go back and watch those as soon as I can. And I hope you keep up, keep up the good work too. So, thank you. Thank you. So, yeah, a couple more minutes, and I will wrap it up. And my God, they are loud. Okay, lesson learned, lesson learned. Next one is going to be indoors where it's quiet. I just thought it'd be more comfortable out here, because it's actually kind of cool this evening. Ronald, that's right. That's right. I'll remember. Thanks, thanks, Marcel. And G.I. Spidey, how you doing? I'm Bjorn Jacob Bononison. I hope I said that right. How's the defining going? The defining is coming along. The big thing that I need to look at in the near future is getting those gantry doors, and that's going to be pricey no matter how you do it. But I'm going to start trying to track down those big gantry doors. Once I get those, it will really look a lot more complete. There will be a few other little things that I need to replace, but we're going to be looking pretty good. The Defiant definitely will not be ready by January. It'll be closer, but not quite ready for a January review, but that's okay. January review is already taken care of. I know what it's going to be. I have the thing. It's ready, and it's going to be pretty cool. J.J., I will remember Dallas. Thank you. Hey, Zarkhan. Sorry you're late for the stream, and I was just about to wrap up, but I'm glad you showed up. Thank you for coming. FormBX said the crawler is pretty fragile. It is. I'm going to... There are some rollers that I can get to set it on that will keep it up off its wheels. So I'm going to be looking into that. Right now, I don't have the wheels on it at all, because that would definitely break. So I'm being careful not to break the thing, but I do know what I'm going to do. It'll be fine. It'll be taken care of. Okay, guys. That's an hour, and thank you. I really wish I could go longer, actually. This has been the best part of my week so far, talking to you guys. But I do need to finish the other review. I do have that review started. I need to finish recording that, so I'm going to get back to that. But sincere thanks to all of you for everything that you've done and all of your support, and we'll just keep pressing forward. So I'll see you all soon. And for now, good night.
