When the toys-to-life news for the week gives you lemons, you take those lemons and make a podcast about lemonade. Or meatballs and airport security. Something like that, right?
Jason and Josh are back for episode 43, in between vacations for Mr. Grier, to talk about the latest and greatest from the four toys-to-life franchises - amiibo, Skylanders, Disney Infinity and LEGO Dimensions - per the usual. After tales of giant meatballs, driving in circles and trying to sneak deadly Skylander vehicles past TSA agents at the airport, the dynamic duo break down a weird double-exclusive SuperChargers pack, the upcoming released for LEGO Dimensions, weird word choices by Disney Infinity’s social media team, and what to expect from upcoming amiibo releases.
The #CommunityQuestion tackles the necessity of being interested in a franchise to collect, and one lucky participant wins an entry into the monthly giveaway tied to the brand new and extremely popular trivia segment now called “Inquire THIS.” This week, a listener writes in with a great trivia question for the expert on the show … but how did Jason do answering it? You’ll have to listen to find out!
Also, some more great emails from the community, as always. Thank you all for the love and support! Happy hunting, collectors!
