Adelaide silver-fox-nerd Brett Owen stops by to check out the news. Because it's news day, The Todd brings his A(zrael) game. Playmates steps up to the plate with something new, but is NECA closing in already? Lego Batman is usually a big deal but have they missed a trick with the latest set? Ben and Frank step aside so Trent and Scot can gush about Dune Part 2 before we wrap it up with some latest scores - as Brett trumps us all with his tales from Japan!

In a Marvel heavy episode, there's some controversial Mattel moves that are very not-rock-n-roll. The Todd makes a face that not even a mother could love while the Legends team somehow make two different He-Mans. And is that Battle Cat I see? Why is Wolverine in blue? But it's all ok - because the best of all time Rogue is here. A record breaking mini-fig and all the Marvel on-screen reveals. Then we look at possibly the greatest wave of TMNT Ultimates - ever?

Lots of goodness to get into today but is there any bigger story - or toy - than Eternia right now?!? Did you get yours? The Todd celebrates a milestone - prepare the gold paint - there's some great new TF reveals from HasLabs and Marvel Comics tributes. Super7 gives us the last Silverhawk to round out the core team while Super Powers gets some great new stuff. Latest scores gives us fan-made books, Retro goodness and some chat around lighting those shelves. Any suggestions?

Nothing says legal analysis about Kaiju like inverse condemnation, Godzilla cleanup costs, and bigamy! Join our panel of lawyers as they discuss lessons from the disasters such as the 1906 Earthquake and Hurricane Katrina for how the world would pick up the pieces after a shadowy government organization's plan for Kaiju in San Francisco was "Let Them Fight."

This week we've pulled fighters from across the multiverse (of properties with Project in the title) to decide who will be the Project Project Ultimate Champion of 2024. 

Join us for a bumper-sized episode as we answer such questions as 'Who would win if the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fought The Hulk?", "Would the Fresh Prince's fighting past help him in a tournament?" and "Is it unfair to pit a Kaiju up against regular guy?"

Today it's the most wonderful time of the year. But before we get to unwrap out presents, it's time to recap on the wonderful Villains that exist in the vintage Turtles line. And just for kicks, Scot will act as judge, jury and swing vote! From 88 to 93 there are some bonkers, iconic and outright weird designs that call out. And just to add to the Xmas crazi-ness, there's even a little audio glitch that we manage to have fun with. Speaking of fun, we follow up on a promised story of what happens when Xmas Cards go wrong - and then right again! Merry times and best wishes to all our listeners as we take a break until 2024. Cheers!

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!

Today on the Toy Power Podcast, we are joined by a special guest and fellow SA collector Damien. He’s a rare breed of collector who manages to keep his passion for one line and one line only: the 80’s classic Jem and the Holograms! It was a time of flashing earrings, shoulder pads and face-paint so Damien takes us through the brand from conception at Hasbro to production. What famous show (beyond on her own) was Jem attached too? Was she even called Jem to begin with? We love figures with multiple accessories, but Jem takes it to another level with a staggering amount of outfits in a dizzying amount of colours. But is it all about the fashion, or the music? Or the Keytar?? Learn about the 80s corporate espionage and subterfuge that was Jem vs Barbie – it was big big money, so much so, one former employee banked some serious coin: and it might not be who you think! Can you have a love-triangle with two people? Hey, it was the 80s… We also get to peek at some seriously rare product – stuff you will literally never see again! Like many other 80s brands, is there a big reboot in the works? Then it’s a quick round of Reading Watching Playing featuring Netflix, ABC Kids and a a book that reads to its author? Frank then ends the show with a special announcement that bodes well for the future of Toy Power…

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 naughty word pre-warned!
