Today we are missing a Scot but subbing in for the first time on Toy Power is longtime Patreon Brendan Crates. The King of the Monsters is back but is that a good thing? Ben reports in. The Todd makes his customary appearance and is this the happiest figure he's ever done? And the biggest topic - in both scale and importance - GI Joe and Super7: Is this the ultimate partnership? Colin Betts writes in for his hot take. Jada toys doing the lords work before a questionable news item from Scot. A fab new Kickstarter to check out rounded out with some impressive latest scores. *mic drop*

This episode is full of bombs. Both the explody-Universal Studios type ones, and the box office flops that nobody likes to talk about. Yes, it's time to talk about Waterworld. Kevin Costner at his problematic best in the middle of the ocean: what could possibly go wrong. But at least the toys were cool? Trent for the affirmative. Then it's our Patreon Hot Takes Part Deux and boy do things get a little spicy. There's fence sitting, high horses and some very silly silliness. BOOM!

There is so so much to talk about that we run overtime is this episode that is both news, and features a special guest. From the EuroLegions Podcast our good mate John Caulfield joins in the madness.

More reveals of the TMNT x Master line and even World of Warcraft gets a run. John then takes us through the recent reveals at the ever-growing LegionsCon. Are the Four Horsemen the greatest niche company ..read more

This week on the Toy Power Podcast, we have some Hot Take Statements that where submitted by our awesome Patreons. We go through some of them and go around the room unpacking the statement, whether we agree, or disagree to it. The power of nostalgia comes into question. Of course some of the biggest franchises come under fire; such as Batman, Star Wars & TMNT. The ease of custom 3D printing vs mass production? What about movies with a connected universe versus the good old standalone film? All this and more, as we only scratch the surface of this now on ..read more

Welcome long time listener Steve Ready to the show! We'll introduce him properly next week because damn - there is some news to get too! It's the crossover the late great Darren would have absolutely gone all in on: TMNT x MOTU. Meanwhile, Todd does Todd things but has he landed on a real mono-chromatic winner here? Mad Max meets Shao Kahn in a new reveal before we dive into Filoni's latest (and possibly greatest) Star Wars entry: Ashoka. Then a fitting farewell from our good mate Scotty The Toy Hunta as he embarks on a new life journey!

This week on the Toy Power Podcast, its all about the Latest news! Another big week with several Conventions happening over in the USA. First off the ranks, we touch base on how well the latest HasLab is going, in the form of Giant-Man. Then its an unusual cross-over of Skeletor & VeeFriends? The Super Cyborg Krang Android is amazing, and very worthy of spot on your shelf as an upgrade of the Playmates version! An absolutely beautiful version of Supergirl from Revoltech; then a big "Skelebration" checklist from Mattel, including both Origins & Masterverse ..read more

Today is a day unlike any other - Dave and Casey invade Toy Power the same way Guile and his commandos storm M.Bison's fortress. That's right, we are talking about the 1994 Street Fighter movie. So it seems like the perfect time to allow swearing and smut! No holds barred here as we play in the DVG sandbox with all the hilarity and chaos it's known for. Not much toy talk here, but plenty of laughs to awkwardly explain to your loved ones.

Because variety is the spice of life, we invited Dave and Casey along for todays ride! Yes there are some news topics to talk through (including PulseCon reveals) but it’s the review you’ve all been waiting for: TMNT Mutant Mayhem. Made slightly trickier by the fact Casey hasn’t seen it, but that doesn’t stop us from having a good time! What did the Turtles fan-boys in the room all think? But most curiously, what did the renowned Turtles hater Producer Scot have to say about it? Next weeks ep will also be a true cross-over with the loveable duo, but done in DVG stylings so consider yourself na ..read more
