#368: It's time to (N64)Quest

Today we have a bit of everything. There's some cool cool reveals to chat through including Secret Wars, deep cut Batman 66 and The Loyal Subjects big announcement. Another great kickstarter to spend monies on and the always awesome Radical Rewind event to recap. Then its present time as we get a care package from the legend Tealo! We attended a Toy Store grand opening and while it was amazing, it was also the source of some Toy Power controversy - one of the team has some explaining to do!

#370: News, Presents, Costumes and Controversy!

In this special Toy Power episode we are joined by author Paul Flavel. He’s just released an amazing new book called John Martin's: The Story of South Australia's Beloved Department Store, which has been over 5 years in the making. We chat about many amazing memories of this beloved South Australian department store, from the incredible toy department (largest in the Southern hemisphere, that’s a fact, Jack) to the indispensable Eliza’s cafeteria (where the malt for your milkshake is always available), through to the Christmas pageant and the undisputed home of Father Christmas. If you have a love for this beloved SA retailer, do yourself a favour and check it out at https://www.johnmartinsbook.com (print run 1 is selling fast). You can curl up with your Marty bear and a cup of coffee from Eliza’s and enjoy this beautiful book that so beautifully captures an important part of our State (and Australian) retail history. Darren, this one’s for you buddy!

Special Edition: Remembering Johnnie's with Paul

This week on the Toy Power Podcast, we have Matt Teale back, to join us for another fun episode.  But first, Matt would like to promote his upcoming journey in the "Shitbox Rally".  Which translated into driving through Australia, across some very formidable roads.  Matt & co-driver Chris aka Darstardly & Muttley, will be embarking on this journey next year, and is looking for donations, in a campaign for the Cancer Council.  (Link bellow.)  Then we jump into our Main Topic, which is another Best-Of-Voting crusade; this time all based around the Toy Heroes released from the 70's & 80's.  We each have 5 votes each, with rules of no double-ups and no calling out the same character each from a franchise.  This is another great run-down and suprisingly diverse too.  With an extra voter on the pannel this round, its not suprising we have a few double-ups, but thankfully we have some secondary fall back choices.  Rounding out the ep, we run out of time for a proper Latest scores chat, but there is a suprise for Frank that he opens on air.
