That intro deserves a standing ovation, I literally just got back from seeing Doctor Strange 2 so the timing couldn't have been better. I do feel like the NECA April as the Bride could've maybe used a bit more dark paint on the face, just compare it to the box artwork and I feel that image has a better look to it with the makeup around the eyes and cheekbones. As you said though it would maybe have lost the whole 'April as the Bride' idea since by that point it could just pass for an alternate design of the original Bride of Frankenstein character. Still, it looks good, honestly it gives me slight Bride of Re-Animator vibes, especially with the rats. I also relate to your older collecting tactic of avoiding the section I was there for and instead look at other ones, then see if there was something else in case what I was looking for wasn't there, that way the trip would be worth it even if I didn't find what I came for.
Great beginning Robo! I like how you are complementary to companies that are doing good by their fans and critical of ones that are mailing it in. Keep up the great work!
You better double check! Returns... Misplaced items replaced in their proper place... Under the shelves (yup. On the dang floor.) I was browsing behind all the big boxes etc. & a clocker asked if I was _Treasure Seeking._ I said yeah, but then complained that all the sect ( incl. Electronics) was just too tidy! She said that they find orphans... Behind baby dolls; behind mirrors; inside trashcans, & tubs. ...all I could think to say was, "That's better than shoplifting! Amirite..." She answers with a laugh... Mantra: always leave 1 on the peg for the next 1
I’m definitely somewhat superstitious when I’m hunting, I walk in holding my fingers crossed for about 20 seconds I go into the aisle and I pretty much had scan every single peg. To me there’s nothing better than finding the figure you want it at the back hidden behind generic peg warmers. I swear the thrill of the hunt is seven times better than the actual figure itself
I used to be big on the hunt, the thrill of the find, but as I've gotten older and online ordering is a much bigger thing I'm okay with just moseying when I get the chance. Still cool to find something on the peg every now and then.
@@TheFwoosh I do want to support physical stores. But the last few years, the pegs are all empty with the supply shortage. But thing are slowly getting back to normal. I finally got a GI Joe BAT from a local Target, which was a pleasant surprise.
I loved this Beefy intro and use of figures! I hate to admit Star Wars Black series figures could be a tempting rabbit hole to slip into. The Vader Helmet and Bride of Frankenstein April O Neil figure do not look too shabby.
When I go to the store looking for something specific, I basically do that same "sneak attack" thing. Always avoid looking at the area I want to look at most until last.
for those who dont know, the red for the 187th clone is accurate to the cannon depiction. the purple is more legends, and was actually made up by hasbro back in the early 2000s for their toy line.
#weneedawicket Yes indeed. I’m sure Land-speeder Luke is on target to create a great background for those Bith musicians. He’ll make something special. Regarding wandering Obi-Wan figure, surely one of those accessories will be the binoculars he is seen with in the teaser and concept art. I love the base body. Cool custom fodder. Hasbro gave us more aliens and droids! I may be one of those few mega excited for these. And they come with unbelievably sweet accessories! More please Hasbro.
8:44 Hey Robo, not sure if you watched the finale of MOON KNIGHT, but I just wanted to know if you're going to do an 'Ammit' custom with that Crocker... OH! and great intro man made my day hahaha ;)
Maybe Crocker is gonna have some Thundercats that...are...not Thundercats ? Yup you sure did it again, even a lil dance too ! Walgreens sigh...tumbleweeds in the aisles
Dang... looking down the toy aisle of stores you go to all the time and being able to just be like, yep, nothing new, all the same stuff they had before... that spoke to my soul so hard
That chainsaw sword is the third one we've seen, the first was the Anti-Crisis Wonder Woman, the second was the green Warhammer, then that bloody Clown.
10:54 "Leaks" like this that slip through are what I love about new media influencers that might not totally understand everything they're invited to cover at an event.
Double checks have paid off many times for me. Sometimes you find the figure you're looking for in an odd place, like someone was hiding it or someone had second thoughts and just sat it down somewhere. Craziest find in an odd place was TF 2007 movie Arcee in the magazine rack. That was a happy day. It's a damn good figure and that figure was rare, at least in our area.
On your retro-reflections on the store stuff.....I remember back in the day, long, LONG ago, when my one local Walmart would actually restock the toy department. It's been so long now, I've seen the same Snake-Eyes-movie figures on the shelf so much, I think they all recognize me.
Yes for the Wild Force Collection. I didn't go for Dino Charge because it was a large 10 member team. I now have a 10 member MMPR with 2 more MMPR variants on order.
LOVING that! i.e. "You opened the door between restaurants...and we don't know WHO will walk through!!" Hysterical! Glad you have such a fun sense of humor!
I've been into toy buying for only a few years now, but what I've learned most is that a Toy Buy's natural state seems to be 'being disappointed in a Target, and then being disappointed into another Target'.
I don't do a whole lot of Black series, but I couldn't pass up the Rebels Crew. However they never did a Grand Inquisitor. I really hope they'll do some more Inquisitors with the release of the Obi Wan series.
Whenever entering a big box store I always say "Let's see what they DON'T have". I still hunt every day. I also do the double walk through. I've found a few thing I missed that way.
I was never much of a hunter myself. My first stint as a collector started because I worked at Toys R Us. My boss wouldn't let employees cherry pick boxes off the truck but still my hunts were usually at my store and occasionally Walmart. Eventually I went back to school and gave up collecting. Flash forward to 2018 where Neca's movie turtles sucked me back in. But the idea of going to a bunch of stores hunting for toys seemed foreign to me (still does). Ordering online just seems like the way to go to me.
What an AMAZING intro! Beef Boss makes everything better. 🤣 Thanks for sharing the Wild Force Blue reveal btw! It was a surprise to fans who shared their top 3 reasons as to why they enjoy Power Rangers via that hashtag. Just goes to show there’s a lot more to enjoy about it than the goofiness.
While having a band in Star Wars Black would be good, you have to buy too many of them. I have like 6 Leia's already so I won't be buying any more anytime soon. Let's see some other Star Wars ladies! We have Bastilla Shan, Shaak Ti, Bultar Swan, Aayla Secura, Mara Jade, Oola, Jabba's female singers trio, and more!
I just got my Mumm-Ra super 7 pre order in it was the set delayed due to covid. And I have no room anymore so I have to be very picky on who I purchase now of days.
I got off work, went to Walmart for a febreeze plug-in, picked “wood” scent…. then I went to the toy aisle & ended up getting my 2nd fortnite figure the deluxe swol cat man guy- yeah weight set, knives, guns this thing is crazy. But that febreeze Wood scent the real mvp.
I wouldn't call it superstitious, but I usually go through the action figure isle at least 2 or 3 times. There were numerous occasions where I missed things on my first pass through.
Hey robo great weekly as always. you know what figure i really want from the black series line? darth maul from his appearance in solo which in my opinion is a badass look and would make for a great figure to have or his appearance from season 7. come on hasbro make it happen and for god's sake don't break the lightsaber in 2. anyways have a great weekend and i enjoyed the intro with beef boss a lot so keep doing your thing in collecting and reporting bro 👍
So excited to get a new Obi-Wan figure. It's not my favorite outfit but I love his look for the new series. Just hints of the Jedi outfit but not enough that he's not just wearing a uniform. Reminds me of that figure of Obi-Wan with the sleeves ripped off and wearing the clone armor pieces as a backpack.
Brian. Love your work regardless. You need to refresh your approach. It's clear you're bored in the usual way. All my best. Lookin forward to the new awesomeness
You should try shopping for action figures in the UK, if you don't go to a specialist store, which is pretty much just Forbidden Planet over here then you don't have a chance. You have no chance of finding anything in a supermarket. If you don't get it online, then you don't get it lol.
LOL...I don't even collect what you collect but love to see your excitement about these plastics I know I get to laugh at least once a week...but ya gotta bring back mini robo...lol...maybe a whole episode with him 🤣 Keep it up my friend.
That “hmmm” after that extensive Beef Boss skit felt like Robo bewildered himself by his own imagination 😆
That intro deserves a standing ovation, I literally just got back from seeing Doctor Strange 2 so the timing couldn't have been better.

14:04 "It's a jizz lover's dream!" Is now at the top of the list of things I thought I'd never hear on this channel. 😂🤣
Loved the intro too!
4:43 We've finally come full circle with McFarlane being able to perfectly recreate the outrageous toyetic guns designs.
“A Jizz lovers dream” damn, that had me laughing hard
I thought I misheard him glad some one else caught that

Right, but Iron Man isn't 7 foot tall in the movies. These are 7 inches tall.

That horse combined with my custom Arthur Morgan , yeah I’m all for that horse , the Spawn figure can stand on the shelf , can’t wait.

IMPOSSIBLE (Beef Boss)---that intro was possibly the most well done thing in the history of things that have ever been done.
Great news thanks!The burger boss is hilarious 😆
WHOOOO 11AM couldn't have come fast enough!

That NECA Universal Monster Donatello sure is taking its time for even just a reveal.
That's really wild, I saw that bloody Clown at Gamestop on Thursday and thought nothing of it, I didn't know it was so new.
Like the Beef Boss introduction. Review of April and Invisible man.
Im really looking forward to the FuRay series
What an AMAZING intro! Beef Boss makes everything better. 🤣

9:16 The Second I heard the word "Tiger" and saw this silhouette, I instantly thought of Rath from Ben 10
Yes! Definitely. We need a Wicket.
this crocodile would be perfect in a batman collection
I went to my target a couple days ago and they were actually restocking the toys. Then I went to the neca section and it was jam packed with stuff
I would seriously watch a whole series of your little skits with beef boss and all the others.
This weekly usual beef with Dr Strange
As cantina band members go… I ordered 6 (1 deluxe, 5 regular). I’m going to rearrange a whole shelf just for them.🤩🤩🤩
Cheers Robo, was in a bad mood before hitting The Weekly, you always brighten my day, PLUS TOOOOYYYSSSS BABY!
Figrin D'an iss just like Bib Fortuna. A fun and full character figure. It's just so different! The best of the wave without a doubt
I'm so so SO happy every time I see my Beef Rot head getting used in the sketches. The whole "LOOK THERE I AM ON TV MOM!!!" Feeling. Thank u!
The insight into your mind when collecting puts my mind at rest as I do all the same things. Good to know I’m not alone
Every time I walk into Target I say “here we go again”. 🤷🏻♂️
I can totally see that.
Gonna have to pick up the obi wan. Keep up the good work robo
So when is Beef Boss in the Multiverse of Meatness coming to a theatre near me, I'd pay to see it, lol.
Oh, I wish, haha!
Loved the intro Robo!
Not watched Dr Strange yet but I don't think I can after watching your version peaked.
That opening was AWESOME!!!
Best intro to a review ever! Appreciate you bro!

Special efx! Pretty good not too bad.
So have you seen the gmtoys reaper ( basically an unlicensed hunk from resident evil ) that went up for preorder just the other day, it looks fabulous
It took me until just the other day to find D'spayre so I could use his body for A.O.A Cyclops. And change the boots for Starlords.
I just got my Mumm-Ra super 7 pre order in it was the set delayed due to covid. And I have no room anymore so I have to be very picky on who I purchase now of days.
How convenient that Robo talks about the NECA Universal Monsters and then NECA announces a GITD Frankenstein’s Monster
Oh yeah, every time. EVERY TIME!

Mmmmm, wood.
16:45 - It might take some "muscle memory" retraining, but try outtro-ing with "That's it for me this week." That way you're covered!
7:07 Said re-use might be why they went with this version over sculpting an entirely new head
Well the FuRay Planet figure could pass as a live action King Lion Heart or Tiger Claw from TMNT so I might need it.....
Awesome intro!

Word is it's part of the wave with Ewok Village Leia and the rest.
Beef Boss has a much more complicated life than I realized
Spawn with a HORSE? BADASS
I prefer figure hunting but sometimes you have to pre order
I do the triple to quadruple check. Then I get some peg warmer that I held back on. I gotta get something for all that leg work.
Instant like for the intro alone 😂 Nicely done, sir!
I don't "hunt" for figures anymore, either.
It's not worth the gas or my time.
It's either available online or I'll just move on to the next toy, now.
