Good job on Tom’s part cohosting the show. I really wondered when the contest winner was going to be on for a while now.
Just three episodes away from 100!
I would like to see Peaugh come back to the show. With Youtube making changes to what it allows its content creators to do in the form of marketing and commercials I wonder how Peaugh and other toy reviewers feel about that.
Agreed. Nicely done, Tom. You matched wits with the guys, dropped knowledge on us all, out-shopped Darryl in the ‘Trips’ segment, and even broke up a fight between Yoshi and Canada. All things said, totally worth the wait.
Also, I was beaming with pride because my comment got a hearty laugh. Happy to have made the list again. I still believe in the list! The list is out there. Remember the list. May the list be with you. I love the smell of list in the morning. Oops, I mean list. List, list, list. Alright, I’m done.
List.
I have been wondering when Tom would be on the show. Though I will admit he played the Wild card with getting his daughter on the entry. But considering he a Cop and Armed I won’t complain no more.
But I am just kidding on that no hard feelings toward Tom for winning. As long as a true die hard Transceiver won. Though I want to employ Tom to hit me on Twitter and try and join us on our get together on the weekends. Would love to have you join us.
Though I will admit I am waiting to see how long it will take Charles to collect all the covers for Transformers (RID) #39. I collect multiple covers as well though I not sure I will jump at that one. SO many……
But once again another great show guys. Still waiting on ” The Only Lists That Counts” . Also maybe you should give a prize or something away for whoever is on the list the most throughout the year or month. I won’t lie I know I have been on a good number of them. I think there are very few I am not on “The List”
But HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY CHARLES!!!!!!!!
I gave Jeremy and Charles a hard time on Twitter about Nemesis being at TFCon Chicago, and while it was fun stirring the pot a little, I have a little bit of info on it for you guys.
I had the original Battle Tanker set and yes, all the add-on parts store in or on the trailer. The Maketoys version of the cab is made to make the armored up bot look better, and it does. I was not a fan of the first Battle Tanker and resold it pretty quickly, which is not something I usually do, and have not regretted it once.
From all accounts, the cloak is made from a very sturdy material that I think I heard is a cloth with a stiffness like construction paper? I’m not sure on that part, I’d need to double check. I THINK he has a stylized faceplate, but I can’t quite tell. The TFW thread on the guy is huge.
I remember looking at him a whole lot in Chicago and thinking how badass he looked and how I’d really like to grab one… but at that price? I’m with you guys, I think I’ll give him a pass.
Also, every time Tom gets called on, I forget that it’s not me being talked to. Ha!
Great show again!
I’m really digging the Robots in Disguise cartoon, which I have “acquired legally.” Although I’m a bit cold on the Combiner Wars comics so far (0pening Salvo & #1/Windblade 2.1) – the art is of course fantastic – and I’m looking forward to seeing more of the Camiens, but I’m yet to be blown away.
Is anyone very attached to the idea of Masterpiece Exhaust? I love MP Wheeljack, but I don’t need Diaclone variant who was at best a guy who was a background character in “War Within” (thanks wiki!).
….and then I saw MP18B (Oh my effing god)
I wasn’t keen on exhaust…in fact I was going to skip it. Really glad I didn’t now.
As for Mp-18b….that was an instant preorder…..I maybe ordered a lot of them. LOL
Hey Guys, been awhile since my post.
As always really enjoyed this episode and they past episodes.
By the time this gets aired it’ll be old news if not old news already but MP-23 Exhaust lives! Received mine from Japan last week. Since then the price has gone through the roof. Like 3 times origianl price. Tried to order more but I was to late. Now I’m trying to decide if I should open it or not.
Glad to see Tom made the show and again congrates to him. LOL one day I’ll make the podcast and put the Beast in his place for toy hauls ;-P I also like how Tom buys TF’s “for” his son. lol I do the samething regularly, and my son isn’t 2 yet. Also like Tom I skipped the humble bunble due to already have the trades. Really wish they had offered that sooner as it’s a wicked idea to get the whole series in one shot.
Question on comics. Do any of you ever consider getting some of your comics AFA graded? Not all but maybe some key issues?
As you guys suggested it would be nice to have Peaugh back on to talk about the Youtube award and the new changes.
Bag of Bots for this week.
MP-23 Exhaust
MP-24 Star Saber
Takara AOE Dispensor
Is it just me or does Tom sound a lot like Audio Knights Whirl?
