  • #381: Snakes, Ecto Mobiles & Questions!

    14/12/2024 Duration: 01h02min

    This Week on the Toy Power Podcast; we have special guest DaveyDamaged join us in studio to boost up the antics & derail our otherwise PG rated episode.  Starting things off, Ben has a very scary - very Australian story about an uninvited guest entering his Toyroom....  Then we change gears and celebrate something exciting; the HasLab Ecto-1 Vehicle has smashed it's goal & is now a guarantee for all those that backed it!  Then we get into the main segment of this episode; which is entirely made up from Patreon Questions - with specific request, to try & make them non-toy related.  Yeah, this is a great opportunity to get-to-know us more, and find out how we tick.  This was a really fun episode, and we hope you come out of this knowing us a bit better.  Enjoy! To follow more shenanigans from DaveyDamaged; please follow: Dave's Video Graveyard: Podcast & Radical Rewind Cinema Club - both have Social Media Facebook pages & Instagram accounts.Support the show: htt

  • #380: Beasts, Vehicles & Movies!

    07/12/2024 Duration: 01h11min

    This Week on the Toy Power Podcast; instead of coming up with a witty & ground-breaking new segment; we decide to actually go back & finish off some of the older segments that we have started.  So this round we each have a Top 5 selection of Heroic Toy Beasts & Vehicles that had a release in the 70's & 80's.  We come up with a very diverse list; even with some questionable nominations too!  Then; in keeping with this episodes theme, we look back at the Films we initially shouted out for 2024: & do a round table review on what we actually thought on them.  Surprising that collectively there are many we still haven't seen!  But as always, some are clear standouts over others!  All this & more.  Enjoy! Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Originally Published in 2018 Today on the Toy power Podcast its our Halloween House of Horrors special! And what makes an episode more special than our favourite guest and self-confessed expert at scaring kids, Mr Davey Damaged! We look at the spookiest, creepiest and down0right disturbing toys every produced. From the glory days of the 80s with Warrior Beasts, Skeleton Warrors and Aliens, through to the modern era dominated by the likes of McFarlane and NECA. We then branch out into some of our favourite Halloween episodes from TV-land. Simpsons, Goosebumps, Scooby-Doo and even Supernatural. Working our way out of the spooky-land we answer some fan questions including how would we handle a Monsters in Pocket/Mighty Max reboot line, and a virtual wish-list of what figures we want from our fave modern toylines. Safety warning for this episode: Trent likes to lure girls into bathrooms, Ben likes to scare his future-wife with Gremlins and Davey does a creepy good Trent impression in one of our more memorable out
