Welcome to the 3POA Podcast! Hosted by LaserPants (aka Ryan) and Bobby Vala, creator of the Valaverse Action Force line of action figures. Join us every other Saturday at 5pm pacific / 8pm eastern as we discuss modern and vintage toy collecting, movies, TV and more pop culture topics!
Beastie Boys all day!!!! Let's get some figures from toddy mac!!! You guys trying to think of the 90s album, was it intergalactic? Or Paul's boutique? Or was it check your head? So many great choices! RIP, Adam Youch. WHAT THE PONY TAIL? I DONT EAT SNAIL!
These look really cool and Athena looks so freaking sick... but these are kind of unnecessary. It's not hard to make a barbarian character, it's just a buff dude in a loincloth, you got stuff from Marvel Legends who just released Ka-Zar, Storm Collectibles Golden Axe, Mezco Conan, Xesray has their gladiator stuff, Frazetta Girls are making barbarian stuff with Fire and Ice, Mythic Legions, you got generic, blank bodies that can be painted and given said get up, MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE, there's quite a bit already out there to fill that void and at various price ranges. Speaking of which, the price on these are amazing, for such large characters with lots of articulation, it's quite impressive. Where I think they screwed up is with the initial first wave, 3 main characters and 3 army builders is kind of boring, especially since modularity is such a huge selling point, what's stopping me from taking off the armor of a main guy and making him a generic dude? I would be a little more invested if the first wave had the main bad guy, Athena and THEN an army builder instead of 3 army builders, you get the 3 main dudes, a female and the villain, that to me has better appeal since there's greater diversity, even if most of them share the same body. It's a shame Bobby couldn't join this one cause I would have loved to hear his take and see him dig into this guy the way he did to Shartimus, I felt y'all kind of softball'd him, I wanted to hear his background and if he had any experience making toys before or if he worked with a toy company prior.
Great show!!! I agree (I mean, who doesn’t) that the Rattler is a bit overpriced and those patches really have a Rancor tier smell to them…so ridiculous. I of course backed it because I’m a Joe mark but the price point & patches criticisms are objectively justified. Period. Maybe it cost $325 because the blast/missile effects are actually done correctly for a change…it must have cost extra money to determine the direction of how flames/smoke work 🤣. I’m slowly working thru by backlog of shows to catch up on, I appreciate the entertainment as always guys 🤘🏻
I had Heman and Skeltor and I still have half of my OG castle grey skull. We also had eagle force island base. Shaped as an eagle and a cave base platform. I had sound wave Optimus prime Starscream and other ones. Gobots lots of Star Wars but when Christmas 1983 I got the GIJoe base airborne Doc Gunho Hiss tank the fang hiss tank driver Slugger &thunder. That’s was the best Christmas then I stayed collecting my GIJoes. Even got a paper route to buy more. Then went into ninja turtles later on. Then everything gone. Sold most of my stuff. But kept the best 100 figures and then I was foolish and gave them away. Then in my 30s started to recollect GIJoes then stopped for 7 years because I collected Star Wars then got rid of them and focused on my GIJoes. In fact I had been making Star Wars. Vids before 788 HCC. But only last year did I start making Joe vids. And now I have over 300. Vehicles and bases and over 1000 plus figures. So almost as large as my Star Wars collection was. Been watching a few of your vids. Super funny Comic-Con. But just to recall all the cool things we had growing up from tones of hot wheels and little army men and military vehicles cowboys and natives. And even those Britain soldiers Germans and British. Fisher price adventure people. I just ordered a bunch to make customs. lol 😂 as well as the 12 GIJoes I had one and the 6 wheeled vehicle to the bionic man. We did have Batman and spider man cars. The Spider-Man car might still be at the lake in the shed. From the early 80s. Fortress of fangs. D&D characters for that set and some weird toy line called the other world had little guppy guys or something . We had so much more in the 1980s even way better race tracks for the cars. I didn’t have the mash figures, but I did have the cars. Anyways, great show
I gotta feelin BR You guys are going to go further than you think. These have a total package all around for its price point. Lot of customizers are going to eat these up 🤘🏼👊🏼 🦁 the fact your willing to bang out animals your first run and that bow is so uniquely done. Lot of HeMan collectors will be studying these. I step out in good faith this too shall come to pass. ⚔️
I hope they get these figures funded. They look really cool and I love seeing new figures being made available for purchase. Especially figures with this much articulation and size.
Yeah I didn't understand why for like a split second everybody was so excited about those five-point Batman figures. Because Kenner made a ton of them back in the day. Hasbro made them back in the early 2000s, Mattel did the entire dcau basically only like 10 15 years ago. And all these versions don't sell for that much on places like eBay or mercari. I mean you can pick up a large majority of the original Kenner line for relatively cheap.
But aren’t you BOLTH posting pictures of proto type toys you shouldn’t be to begin WITH??!? So how do any of you lay claim to something that is not yours or supposed to have and is stolen images from Hasbro to begin with?!? You don’t own the content to begin with you are mad he’s stealing your clicks and views and what this is really about 💰
Who stole the picture? It was given to me by the man who took the picture. He then gave me permission to post it. But none of that really matters, as was clearly said in this video multiple times. Do you lack basic comprehension and thinking ability?
@@3POAPodcastthis is a unreleased con exclusive figure ….why do you have these pictures? Do you have something saying Hasbro gave you exclusive right to these photos??
Your casual collector and people that work long hours don’t want to watch a 2 hour live stream of dribble they want the bullet points of what’s happening in classified in a 10 minute video 🤷🏻 and that is what made his channel successful. I don’t care for the guy but I totally see why that format works …..he didn’t reinvent the wheel he just took that formula and applied it to a popular toy brand
There are real crimes going on out in the world and this guys acting like a blat ass some stole his pictures of action figure heads 😂 and calling him a criminal 😂😂 bunch of you tubers fighting over clicks and views and money this whole thing has been incredible juvenile and ridiculous and every one involved should be embarrassed……I wish this crap would stop showing up in my classified search because this has nothing to do with gi joe or toy collecting 🙄 bunch of high school drama queens
My apologies for missing out on the LIVE but I just finished watching the replay. I admit that I was over on Chad's stream catching up on all the Toytuber drama and being messy. When they called for Gen X to rise, I didn't think this would be the result lol
That is very nice of you to say Chad. Especially since we were all over on your live lol. But fear not - I did watch the replay and smash the like button to show my support for the 3POA
