How do you do nice to see you painted plastic? We were just starting to talk about the the gi Joe classified Target exclusives particularly we're talking about the viper Not the car but the action figure the one that everybody's trying to get their hands on and yet nobody can seem to find Missed the Cobra trooper now missed the viper. I'm sorry Stephen. You're not the only one Marge is annoying so well welcome Homer Simpson. We're happy to have you here a Couple of people may want your autograph, but you know, hopefully that hopefully you can endure the the the fan base I know it's a burden to be famous. I understand Not that I'm not that I'm Homer Simpson famous mind you But like I got 69 people in here 69 69 people in here So I'm 69 people on a live stream famous So, you know, I I feel like that's close. That's close to being like Homer Simpson Yeah, sparkster, I remember the the The viper TV show I only saw a little bit of it although I do have somebody sent me the box set of The show but I haven't cracked it open and watched it yet But back in the day when it was on I watched a little bit of the the show viper that was based on the car Thank you, Mark Ryan. Happy New Year to you as well donuts Yes, so I Have I guess I have a confession to make the confession doesn't have anything to do with me getting The Cobra viper from Target. In fact, it's the opposite What when I When they they did the first round of target exclusives I was able to get all of them I It was difficult, but I got the troopers I got Beachhead and whatever. Oh, I got the Baroness and Roadblock, I think that was it. Yeah So I got all of them I was all in on the target exclusives when they with the first round of them But I have to admit that I really did not enjoy collecting that way I did not get a lot of enjoyment from Running from one target to another only to find empty pegs everywhere I went And then trying again and trying again and watching for restocks and all of that that was not fun Hello, Michael Bassett. I'm well. I hope you're well, too. Hello action figure expert. How do you do? Yeah, so the It kind of I have to admit it kind of killed my enthusiasm for the classified exclusives and I Like the figures I have like I said, I got all of the target classified last time and I got basically I have everything in the line Except for the red ninja. I never got the red ninja But That that that That manner of collecting just it just sapped all my enthusiasm And I've got no excitement at all for this new round of exclusives and I just I'm not doing it this time Other people who want them can have them. I will not be I Will not be competing for the target exclusives The wetwear says treasure hunting used to be fun it used to be but I tell you like you gotta be able to Find stuff. I mean the The the supply was so limited You know, if you know even if you were successful at getting them You felt like you were taking something away from another collector because they Most of the stores that I went to got one set one set and that's it So it was difficult it was not fun And this time around I am not going after the viper or the or Whatever a firefly or whatever else is exclusive to target now You guys can have them and good luck Hey JK siege nice to see you a happy new year to you as well and Orion films nice to see you I don't think I said hello Yeah, I went beach 76. How do you do? And Lost in Wallace a few people have come in that I haven't said hello to hello the wetwear and Lobo to That's speaking of the figures. I've been getting the retro line at the local small mom and And pop I guess that's what you mean Yeah, the retro line. I mean I My only interest in the retro line so far has been the vehicles like I got actually have a his tank over there From the retro line and the his tank looks pretty good. I I do like a his tank, you know It's hard to argue with the his tank but Yes, I think I understood what you meant Cobra Island But this is a Shockwave says could I invite you to a GI Joe discord server that I have sure I can't promise that I I can Participate a lot because I'm having a hard time keeping up with my own stuff But sure why not it sounds fine. Hello a Cobra commander 54 Nice to see you and scones So I Mean it on the one hand I think it's really good that there is a lot of enthusiasm out there for a new GI Joe product especially after the The drought that we had here Yeah, yeah shockwave, I can't I can't click on that right now So you may have to email that to me or something, but well I'll get to that After the show with the thank you for sharing Hello Chad nice to see you Yeah, the retro card art is good because it's actual retro artwork The retro series itself. I mean the the figures themselves are not really retro. They're modern era figures The vehicles though now, I haven't gotten the all-striker yet if I if if I Wouldn't feel bad if I got my hands on one But I did get a his tank plus I got a his tank for Timmer's charity drive So I gave away a his tank To the winner of the the drawing for Timmer's charity thing this year But I yeah, I mean the his tank is it's a his tank. I can't Argue with that. I love me some his tanks And there are some molding differences from the vintage one But it's close enough It's different enough that you're not going to mistake it for a vintage his tank But it's close enough that you can display it alongside your vintage his tanks and it looks pretty good It's it's not bad But yeah, I mean I like the fact that people are getting into The new GI Joe product and I was getting into the new GI Joe product as well I mean I got now that I mentioned it. I mean I've got I've got snake eyes right here, and I like the way snake eyes looks. This is just the regular retail release snake eyes But I dig it But yeah, that that's That's mostly a futile Chasing down these exclusives It made it a lot less fun And I'm glad that not everybody feels the way that I do. This is just my personal feeling about it Yes, Timmer did a video on the 1997 almost said 1979 the 1997 figures So yeah today is Tuesday And Tuesday is Timmer day That means on half the battle Timmer has a new video So make sure you check out Timmer's video this time he covered An era of GI Joe figures that are often forgotten That is often forgotten the figures around the the O-ring figures that came right after the end of the vintage line So, you know 97 98 and those So make sure you check out Timmer's video I am a patron of his on patreon So I always get early access so by the time Tuesday rolls around I've already seen the video, you know I get my special access But anyway, yeah, I'm sorry, I missed some of your live chat sorry about that once I get started talking I My eyes shut off, and I'm not reading so I apologize Toy gigante channel Hello, John Raimi nice to see you. Thank you for joining us Nyquist nice to see you Christopher Moody and the killer weezer. I don't think I said hello to you. Hello Mike Wilson Yeah The foot pegs on the modern his tank I believe they are for the modern figures, but it comes with a modern era figure and this is alright That's the big complaint that people have about the retro line not being truly retro Yes, John he timbers a little a little head ahead of the curve on wearing the mask he was doing it before it was cool So yeah, the retro thing if they were true retro figures meaning they were vintage style figures Oh ring figures Then I'd probably have a lot more enthusiasm for them, but I'm not a modern figure collector I just that's not my thing isn't it doesn't mean that It has to be you know other people don't Shouldn't get them a lot of people like the modern figures and that's great. It's just not my era And then they come out with this retro line, and it's not retro. It's it's modern design modern era figures and You know That's just as that's not retro now the the vehicles like I said are a bit better But the figures themselves Are like 25th anniversary style Bodies just straight modern a lot of them reissues of modern figures with sometimes with a little different head or something like that, but Version one mold figures for retro would have been nice. I yeah, that's what I'm saying Now we are all Timmer yes In fact, he should take credit for starting the trend although the trend is caused by the plague So he may not want to take credit for that after all Nick's that idea never mind So if you if you're into modern era figures you you may really like the retro stuff the retro line, but Yeah, that's not my thing what I think that means though is I Don't think we're gonna see o-ring figures ever again. I think if they were gonna do o-ring figures They would have done it in the retro line what that Most likely means is they don't have the molds anymore Or the o-ring construction is just not cost effective And I hate to say that because I know a lot of people have been clamoring for For new o-ring style figures, but I'm I'm interpreting this Move by Hasbro with the Walmart exclusives to mean that they're just not gonna do them Now would have been the time but Now wasn't the time so yeah Uh, we are timmers minions. Well that I wouldn't mind so much I I do um Yeah, the black major figures are not mass produced and that's Yeah, that's um Yeah, that I think there's some misinformation about The black major and o-ring molds that's That that is almost certainly not correct, but Um, also those figures are not mass produced and when you start talking about producing Not, you know a few hundred or even a few thousand, but you know hundreds of thousands of figures um, that's where the um The costs can get prohibitive So, um, I don't I don't think they're gonna do it and I hate to say that because so many people want The o-ring style figures. I just don't think they are um Yeah, uh, you can't use rubber or molds for mass producing that they won't hold up Um, but yeah, and and the plastic is yeah Yeah, yeah, you got it. Um Anyway, but yeah Uh and And yeah, jake is correct. Uh jake e uh is correct. They they did actual retro figures for star wars For ghostbusters those are out on the shelves right now uh for um The transformers In fact, I I picked up a a blaster Just because I never had one um Somebody said lol uh lea and I missed what she said that was funny. Sorry lol lea I'm sure it was really funny, but I missed it um Anyway, um, I I don't want to harp too much on it my what I'm My main point is um I'm I'm I'm giving the Classified line arrest for now I have been refocused back on vintage collecting That's a lot more fun for me. I enjoy it a lot more Um, I I've got I've got some stuff coming in Um, I've made some vintage purchases But I'm not sure I can even show you this stuff once it comes in But because all of it is for reviews that are coming up soon and I don't want to spoil the The surprise I don't want to spoil it for you, but uh, I've got some uh actual vintage gi jo stuff On the way here if us postal service can ever ever deliver it Yeah, um Andrew says um the first wave star wars retro uh fun, but poorly done stormtrooper can't hold this blaster That is another thing that um that I've heard about that um and on the one hand that's You know, they ought to be able to do a bit better On the other hand, there's not going to be any mistaking the retro figure for a vintage figure most of them um Most of them will um You at a glance you should be able to tell that this is not a true vintage figure And if you're a vintage collector Yeah, oh nyquist ask for any, uh Defiant news. Well, somebody sent me some new wheels So I got some some uh some new wheels Um, but um, yeah the defiant is is still a work in progress. Uh, it's awfully difficult to get certain parts. Um, but uh, it's it's I'd say it's about 95 percent there, but the the five percent that still has to go is Um Is is like the the most difficult five percent, you know what i'm talking about Um, so i'm i'm working on it, but I have it out. I have it on display Uh, it's it's not in here. It's it's in my living room um But I have it on on a roller so I don't have to put it on its own wheels, you know I'm sure you know, but um The the defiant is too heavy and it will break its own wheels So I have it on on a roller Um, so I can you know, I can move it around and you know at a glance it looks really Good it looks mostly done. It's really just uh some odds and ends that I have to to get to complete it I um I will add that I do have Both figures I have original accessories for both figures I have file cards for both figures So for hardtop and payload They are ready to go man. They are ready to go I just have to find the extra bits to finish the actual defiant um Working on it working on it um Uh, yo, joe banjo says the uh, don't the modern figures measure for four instead of three three quarter inches Yes, at least average, you know, they average Closer to four inch. They're in a larger scale um Which is why when they hasbro announced That they were coming out with a retro three and three quarter inch line everybody assumed that meant actual O-ring style figures Because those are three and three quarter inches Oh victor says happy new year. Uh, happy new year to you, uh as well, and I'm glad you liked buzzer and blastoff Thank you for joining um So yeah, that's um People were expecting o-ring figures not just because they were line was going to be called retro But also because they said it was going to be three and three quarter inch figures But they're not three and three quarter inch figures They are four inch modern figures If they had just said that from the beginning at least people could have set their their expectations, right? And I think people would have Most well some people would have understood But if you say three and three quarter inch figures, that's what people think they're going to get So Yeah That's my point. Michael. I'm not sure that it would be viable For mass production if that's if they still have the molds which i'm not sure that they do Thank you, joe, uh, joshua joshua montez. Thank you very much thumbs up to you as well Uh Hasbro book of lies I Don't know. I mean they have some young people running the the show over there on the gi joe brand right now And part of me thinks is that Some things I think they've done really well But on the other hand some things um I just I wonder if they even know I don't I wonder if they even have like the the background and information To know You know what certain things mean I don't know, you know, um They're young cats 69 Um, oh, I don't have I don't have story time tonight because I didn't get a book and they're not in here. Sorry. So no story time You're just gonna have to endure me complaining complaining about hasbro And uh and talking to you guys in the super chat and missing most of the super chat. You guys are typing really fast I can't read that fast Um David says I can borrow his defiance awesome Um, let's fly to the moon Um, I am so close. I'm so close. Um Hey, if if there's anybody out there who owns a um A defiant complete and A crusader complete I need the answer to a question and so far nobody's been able to answer this question yet um Uh Is the umbilical Exactly the same For the defiant and the crusader are there any differences at all even minor differences Or are they actually the same Because I have an umbilical for the crusader If they are identical, I'm not gonna go out and spend over a hundred bucks for another umbilical Uh for the defiant if if they are in fact The same if there are any differences though even minor differences Then I've got to track down the other one So, um Yeah, so if anybody has an answer michael bassett says yes, it is uh if you're referring to the answering my question That would be very useful information um Uh rebel dad says what are your thoughts on knockoff figures like what they uh do for star wars figures Are you referring to like uh Like reproduction figures. I'm not a fan of of reproduction figures for several reasons um But it depends it really just depends on what it is and and um If it's going to be so close to um If it's going to be so close to the red uh to the actual vintage figures that People will be mistaken on what they're purchasing Um michael says the umbilical is just standard gauge wire with factory markings removed Yeah, I can definitely tell that from the one that I have and I it's very tempting to just go and get a wire and remove the factory markings, but I can't do that I can't do that because i'm gonna be putting this on like on tv in hd and If somebody's bought this. I mean, I can't I have to show the the genuine item even if it's Even if even if it's something that is cheap and that you can go and buy in a store Um, I I it is pathological um Take note in some early defiant releases There were uh caps for the end of the umbilical that plugs into the space station I was wondering about that I will have to see if I can track those down then Uh because uh, I was I was wondering I was curious if there was anything at the ends that would help the fit At the plug and where it goes into the ship Um, thank you michael bassett. That was useful information. I I appreciate it very much um Um, but anyway, um, yeah, so, um And I don't I don't even consider necessarily myself to be a purist victor Um, I'm just trying to show you the real thing I mean as a reviewer as somebody whose job it is to review these things I have to be reviewing the actual thing and not just something that looks like it um So, um it's It sure would be cheaper to get something. That's uh, not authentic um, but um That's just not what I do um I I mean, I'm gonna be showing this stuff on your actual tv Um And it's gonna be big and zoomed in and close up and people May make their choices about whether to buy something Based on what they see in my video So I've got to show them the real thing because I don't want somebody to see What's in my video and make a mistake and think that Uh, something is real when it's not You understand? um, it's As part of part of it is about protecting the audience Protecting the viewer to make sure that What you're seeing if you go out there and you go out and you decide you want to buy the thing that you're seeing The well the thing that you buy will be what you expect it to be and not Not a uh reproduction um And even though reproduction sometimes look very very very close to the original um Uh There are still Minor differences and when it's zoomed up on a great big screen like that Those minor differences become this big so Yeah, I I uh Yes mcdc mc dj acdc 100 bucks for a vintage defiant chord. It is crazy It is crazy Uh, hello christopher moody um Anyway, uh, so yeah uh Yeah, so That that's kind of where I am with that. I it's it's um Just part of what I do But the fact that it is a hundred bucks or more for a vintage um Defiant um um billicle That's why I want to I was asking if it is exactly the same as the one that came with the crusader Because I have one with the crusader and I have I'm highly um I'm highly, um Confident that that is in fact vintage um so If that's if if if I can get one and it's a twofer and it works for both I'm okay with that. I can live with that Hello mega mad. How do you do nice to see you? Uh, yeah, so, um So what are we talked about we talked about? target exclusive classified figures, um Yeah, um We've talked about target exclusive classified figures who talked about the retro line. We've talked about Some of hasbro's shenanigans Um, we've talked about the defiance um Uh, what else does anybody want to talk about? I'm working on a video. I'm working on a review like an actual legitimate full review It's behind me. Although well I can't really see it, but it's behind me And as soon as I'm done with this live stream, I have to go back and work on it some more um Yeah, um Yeah, let's see, uh, michael says easy way to tell if it's finishes or original Uh, is that uh at the ends if you can see the insulation and it's yellowed and dry looking It's paper insulation. Yeah, um, and that's one of the reasons why I thought this looked authentic because it looked It looked old Um, this is not the court that I have is not something that somebody just popped down to the Uh hardware store to pick up. I mean it's it's old Uh, hello, tim bentley. Nice to see you tim bentley. Thanks for joining us Um What else can we talk about? I'm not I'm out of uh the the swing of doing these uh live streams It's been a little while since I've um Uh Oh, yeah christopher, uh, we talked about that a little bit. I'm not hunting for the viper. Um, I I wish the best of luck to the people who are Uh, and I hope you can find them Uh, what I was saying was um, I really didn't enjoy my last experience tracking down the Um the target exclusives even though that was Overall successful. I was able to get all of the previous run of target exclusives It was tedious and difficult and not fun at all Um, and it kind of killed my enthusiasm for those exclusives. So I'm passing on that Uh, I'm passing on it and and best of luck to everyone who wants to go out there and go to all of the targets and Find empty pegs everywhere you go Um Oh, uh chad sends a super chat. Thank you chad. Here's 999 to go towards the umbilical cord Dilemma uh cobra. La la la Thank you chad. I know now I can do it I appreciate that. That's that was very funny. That's good. I like that a lot Yes sub teams this year we can talk about that painted plastic points out in the buzzer quick shot I announced that our theme for 2021 is sub teams So you got your gi joe and you got your cobra and then inside of gi joe you have smaller teams that are also gi joe and inside of your cobra you have smaller teams that are also your cobra So sub teams Now, of course that will involves some 90s stuff, right? Because there are lots of sub teams in the 90s, but but We're gonna spend a lot of time in the 80s a lot of time Um, we're talking dread knocks. We're talking tiger force. We're talking python patrol. We're talking night force Lots of time in the 80s lots of things to look at and keep in mind that just because that's the theme for the year It doesn't mean every video is going to fit that theme But the majority of them should fit That team that theme and it has been a while since we've done tiger force We got it. I know what we're doing next retire force. I already got it in my noggin in my in my plans in my head Um And uh, yeah, um We're gonna look at, um The 80s sub team mega force. Yes the cool dune buggies dirt bikes with rockets. I The mega force movie now you're gonna get me off on a tangent because the mega force movie is is Hilarious and awesome in the best ways. Hello jls comics. Thank you for joining Uh, battle force 2000. Uh, now I have reviewed battle force 2000. However I have not reviewed dj or the pulverizer both battle force 2000 And so I may get to those this year Uh, so there's still some battle force 2000 that you know, um That that I can get around to um Yeah, so sub teams, um Are there dom teams? Yes, there are dom teams I I I tend to think of night force as a dom team The dread knocks probably yeah Weisenheimer Um Doug says looks like the umbilicals are the same with a variant on the european version I sent you an email of the his tank there. Oh, thank you, uh, Doug. That's much appreciated um Anyway, uh, yeah um Deep six was the original sub team. Yeah, correct. Andrew. Uh, good point Good point um Sonic fighters. So yeah, we will we will delve into the 90s not as much as last year Not as much as last year But we will delve into the 90s and we'll probably look at sonic fighters um And or supersonic fighters Or eco warriors So we'll we'll we'll look at some in the 90s But we're gonna spend a lot of time in the 80s um Last year 2020 being the year of the 90s Was pretty rough. That was rough on me Uh, so I need to get back to doing some of the stuff from my era I'm not doing street fighter 2 Street fighter 2 I covered that actually I brought in a dragon fortress to cover street fighter 2 and that that's it that I'm doing with the street fighter 2 um So but uh, yeah, uh, the 90s were so colorful. That's correct And there was some color in the 80s too, but it was not not quite as uh prominent Uh, keep in mind the 80s had blowtorch Uh and sci-fi Both of which were just the brightest of bright colors But still on balance There was more of that in the 90s than in the 80s And I'm not I'm not hating on the 90s folks. I just spent the whole year looking at the 90s And there's some really good stuff in the 90s really good stuff Um, but my preference is still uh The the 80s the stuff that came out of the 80s Um, not just because aesthetically I like it better, but also because that's the stuff that I remember. So um But we're getting back to the 90s Back to the future back to the year 1985 and other years of the 80s um So, yeah Uh, that is The theme and I hope everybody enjoys it. Uh, my main thing is I want to get back to doing Reviews like full reviews at least semi regularly Um, and that has been a struggle. Um, you know, I I do work a lot Um, and even when I'm not working I it you know, I don't necessarily have the the energy to do videos because I'm tired um, but But I'm really really trying Uh, special I hey, I reviewed special mission brazil. In fact funny thing. I went back and watched that review yesterday But I have I have a review of special mission brazil. I I really like special mission brazil I think it's crazy and and kooky and the colors are nuts Some of them some of the colors are not bad at all Like the special mission brazil leatherneck is a nice nice figure Now, do you think the his tank can go 88 miles per hour? We're we're gonna find out Um I thank you lazarus, um The 90s are a great generation not for but just not for gi joe and I know and like again I know not everybody agrees with that and there are a lot of fans of the 90s and that's fine. That's cool and everything but for my own well-being I've got to get I've got to get back and do some more 80s stuff. I really just need to Um, so we're we're doing that. That's what we're doing. We're doing lots of sub teams And we're doing lots of 80s in the year 2021 There you go Um And malcom asks what I think of black major figures. I don't have a lot of them. So I I mean I have some Uh, I can't really pass a lot of judgment on figures that I don't have Um, but I will say that the plastic seems to be uh of a lower quality than you know, the the vintage era uh Mass produced figures. So I don't know. That's that's I think that's all I can really say about that I can't really comment on I don't really buy them. So yeah um Robert says have you managed to get the uh toxolab yet? Not yet That is something I was looking at though. That was on my radar. It was on my radar. Um Maybe that'll come up on the radar again soon because I I'd like to nail that one down. That is a gap in the collection And I'd like to nail that one down. So I will think about the toxolab Um in the near future. Maybe that's a next month thing um Yeah, so, um Uh, yeah, you guys are typing fast and I'm trying to read and keep up Um, oh, uh, see you later painted plastic. Thank you for stopping by Uh, hope to see you again in the near future. Always happy to uh happy when you're able to stop in Uh Review Jared from the sub team. Uh, yeah Um, I'll have to uh, see if I can do a jailhouse interview with uh, with Jared. Wow Uh Yeah, Lazarus, uh black major uh produce does um reproduction and custom figures And he does take his name from the black major from action force Now I have the black major figure from action force If that's what you're referring to but uh, I don't I don't think that's what you you were referring to I thought you I think you were talking about the the uh The guy that makes the figures um 100 129 people watching um, I have I I wish I wish I had uh Made myself more presentable. I didn't know there would be that many people in um Yeah, john, uh, the toxa lab is a play set from Uh, eco warriors it was under the eco warriors banner. I am pretty sure Uh, it's fairly hard to find Um, I have run across uh them a few times But the prices were not what I wanted to pay Chad sends the super chat Whether it be a wolverine sub team review wolverines Funny you mentioned that as a kid when Um When we started oh, thank you for a super chat chat and thank you for a super chat michael Thank you very much When we were kids when we started, um Yeah expensive play set When we started customizing figures and making our own characters, um, we created our own team called the wolverines um Based on the movie red dawn So, uh, if I I just wish I had any of that stuff um A couple years ago. I opened up the Uh toolbox that has the last of my vintage collection Um And all that was in it was just a bunch of parts I can't find The comic books we made I can't find the the actual complete figures that we made And we did this whole thing we would make we would make our own comic books based on our own characters Oh a small town machine shop sends a super chat. Hey, you are big town machine shop. Thank you very much big town machine shop very much appreciated Yeah, so, uh Sure that counts as a sub team I just and if I could actually find the figures that we made I would show them I would love to do an episode On our custom figures that we made when we were kids, but I don't have any the the last of my um childhood collection is just, um Uh just parts just figure parts. That's it a few accessories Um, and I don't know what happened to everything else um My parents moved a couple of times Uh, and I have to assume that stuff got left behind in the moves or thrown out or whatever, but Uh, is cobra kai going to be a sub team? I think it could happen. It could happen um I'm not sure I can uh If I can do cobra kai justice because uh fear does exist in this dojo You know, yeah, I have to admit in this dojo. Yeah, there is fear. So I don't think I qualify um Yeah, time happened But I'm glad at least that I have the the toolbox. I'm glad at least that I have the figure parts. That's at least something That's at least something from my childhood collection A quick kick is daniel sun. Uh, yeah, yeah, uh And in in the tournament. Yeah, daniel did not wear shoes So there you go um Oh, uh, oh joe fan. Hello joe fan 82. Uh, hi, I didn't see you sneak in here. You sneaky sneak um Jo fan did a stream on christmas day Uh with what he got so i'm sure that's on a replay. So after you're done here Go check out joe fan 82's uh live stream from christmas day and check out his loot The hard master miyagi Although, uh, mr. Miyagi looks a little bit more like the soft master if you know what I mean How you know what if they had made A gi joe movie from the 80s or a snake eyes movie like what they're talking about doing now Um pat marita would have made a pretty good Uh Soft master Think about it. He just imagined him in that role. He would have done really good with that role I don't know if he wanted to take that role. He might have felt like he was being typecast But i'm i'm just saying it looks a little bit like uh, Like the soft master Yeah It's houston yukami Uh, wow um Joe custom challenge that's that would be an interesting idea uh rebel especially considering most of the stuff that I got in the last Unboxing from the stuff from the p.o. Box Was customs people sent a lot of customs um, and it would be interesting to uh Just just to see what people can do um I don't know if I will get around to that, but I will consider that idea Uh, mainly right now. I just want um Uh Yeah, so he is a little bit on the round side. This is what i'm saying um The main thing i'm focused on i'm really trying to get back to doing regular reviews now I may not be able to get to one every week like I did before Lee van cleef See gory's got a good idea um I just I want to get back to doing regular reviews. Um, even if I can't do them every week I want to get back to Getting content out regularly because I really do enjoy Doing it. I I enjoy Uh looking at the toys I enjoy talking about the toys Editing the videos has become a little tedious, but Still it's worth it in order to get the the video done um Mr. Miyagi versus roadblock cook um Kelly labraca's lady j now that would be something. Yeah, um An 80s fan cast of a gi joe movie that would be truly intriguing and it's got to be Stars from the 80s, right? No, no modern era stars Uh, this is what The cast could have been if they had made an 80s gi joe movie On one hand, I'm kind of glad um They didn't Because if they had tried to make um A gi joe movie in the 80s. I think it would have looked a lot like mega force And I do love mega force But mega force is also kind of ridiculous and I don't want gi joe to be ridiculous Joe fan says at editing editing videos feel the same, but with the filming Maybe you can film mine and I can edit yours. There we go It's the perfect team up I you edit I film. Yeah, we'll just swap. It's perfect Um, I I don't look anything like you though. So I mean, um, I'll just I'll have I'll have to practice doing an impression of your voice or something like that um Yeah, editing is a bear We've got some folks here who have youtube channels and do their own videos and so you kind of You kind of understand what I'm Where I'm coming from now in In the past I've thought uh in the past editing was my favorite part I used to love editing Because it was where I actually Stitched everything together and made the final product. I felt like the editing was the most important part Uh, but you do that for a few years and uh, it kind of wears on you Um So, uh Yeah, um, what about masters of the universe? Are you talking about the master's universe movie like the he-man movie? from the 80s That was Something else Katie Segal is the Baroness Sean Connery as oh Sean Connery as Destro at that time would have been great He would have killed it That that would have been a good Destro Yeah, I'm on board with that Well, hey guys we it looks like we have um About three minutes left to go and I am gonna stop the live stream at uh eight o'clock my time because um I need to get back and I need to do at least a little bit of uh video shooting tonight It's a big long video So The more I can get done in an evening, you know the easier it'll be for me later on so Um, I am going to wrap it up here in about two minutes Uh, and I will let you guys go.
