Hi everyone and welcome to Nodie of North, Pardcast when talk there. The Nodie podcast hosted by two Northern nerds, I'm Sam. And I'm Paul, thank you for touching on it again, thanks to you after our first effort last week. Second.
Second. How are you doing Paul? Not by yourself. All right, all right, not too bad for Tuesday.
Thanks to Marlle, had a really good one there. Thanks to you as well. There was a busy day, a lot of announcements, a lot of things I came out, so it's quite... Before we get into the news, I've got to ask you one important question, Paul.
I tell you what, I have been watching it. I don't think it's a new show, but it's one I'm just following, it's just being on Disney start, that's all I was, it's... I don't know if you want right, it's the weirdest thing I've ever seen. It's very rigorimori, it might even be made by the same people who have made rigorimori.
The entire fume, like very childish swearing jokes. It's about a family of aliens that's crushed on earth and just not pretending, pretending like to try and blend in. But I feel like I know this. I feel like I'm maybe watching this.
I'm definitely not watching it, I think I'm doing this. There was two seasons of it, I think it came out in America before, but it's like it's been over here. But the best part of it is, it's like a side story. It's got, like, one of the kids, when people in Oium uses a shrink, did rigorimic to shrink them down, but he's got a rigor, an ant farm, and he's bedroom, and he puts the people in, and there's a side story of the people in the wall.
And it's basically going from the top to the bottom, it's like very distal, be a very mad box, but the wall is probably the best part of it. And I say I'd probably recommend it, what's called Soul Ops. It's starting Disney Closet, in all weird meetings, you can get two seasons out of it online. Okay, anything else?
And Vince, yeah, I've been watching that. It's very much like a cartoon version of the boys. I feel like that's an episode in itself, that we could literally once I finish, because I have a lot to see on it. I am thoroughly enjoying it, but I just want to sort it in before I start to divulge into it, but I'm really, really loving it.
It's pretty much got the film of the old Spiderman cartoons, if that makes sense, like a lot of it's a bit but with more adult content, I think. Definitely more adult than the cast of Walking Dead. I love that. Anything else?
I just have to catch them up on Bob's Burgers and stuff like that. Oh my god, I've been watching Adlove Bob's Burgers and I've watched all 10 seasons at least twice, since last year's lockdown. I love it. It was not as much as I watched the office, because I watched that religiously.
The American one. Yeah, I am obsessed. The minute I finished it, and I miss them so much. I go back and start again.
It's the same with me and with them always sunny. We've literally last night finished the last episode for the second time. When we put it on, we've got nothing else to watch. We'll go back to the beginning tonight, no doubt.
But I've been watching, and it's not nerdy in a way, but I started line of duty. Nick's absolutely obsessed with that. I've not watched it yet, because I think I missed the first two seasons. It's all on iPlayer.
Yeah. I watched the first season on Saturday, could not turn it off. Thank god I was like stuck in the house, and I finished second season this morning. I'm literally getting up early on the morning because you left on a cliffhanger, but I get up the next morning to watch the next one, and I'm left on a cliffhanger again.
It's absolutely fantastic. I'm starting season three tonight. I know everyone's doing the Sunday night post, it's like a Saturday night. I think I've signed the line of duty tonight now with one division for midnight.
Oh, and Wob and Dead as well, because it used to be a Wob and Dead, oh, game is wrong thing, you always see it on, but yeah, I'm absolutely loving it. But apart from that, that is literally all I'm watching is line of duty. Well, it's not all I'm watching. I would think I say, I watch the office, obviously.
Obviously, we did watch a film last night, or side tracking from TV shows and nobody. Oh, it's at the bubble, bubble and perk one. Yeah, it's pretty much, I don't know if it's going to be set in the John Wick world, but it is just John Wick. Oh, wow, we've made an answer to the John Wick last year because we watched the first one, and the first came out, and then last year we watched the second and third one.
Yeah, absolutely. There's no bullshit in them films. No, there's not a bit more than a few of them, man. It's the one that cannot, it's not anything else.
True, but the soundtrack is absolutely top notch. That was the one they made in Nick Ralott, Nigel, and Edgar had Pat Benatar and stuff kicking in, it was like, this is absolutely brilliant. What was a cameo, but not cameo, he's got a bit of a partner at Chris Loyde, Dot Brown from Back in the Dead, and he is absolutely unbelievable and if you don't see it common. And when he does, honestly, it's very cool.
Oh, wow. Oh, I'm going to have to have to have to tell him about it because he, we really enjoyed the John Wick films, love Bob Odenkirk. He was originally, but he wasn't. He auditioned for Michael Scott in the office, and they actually used him in another episode later on as an alternative Michael Scott, like he was Michael Scott just in another office and he was, he was in it for less than 20 minutes and he was brilliant.
He saw Bonnie, and I have to tell him about it. I did say you pause the minute you posted it, then I saw everyone else posting about it. Yeah, it's very mixed. It starts up a little bit like John Wick as well.
Someone breaks into his house. They don't kill a dog. No animals are hurt in the film, but without spoiling anything more, it kind of leads in from there. It takes you on a journey that you know what's going to happen.
There's no surprise in it. It's basically doesn't try to be a clever as well. It's just goes from A to B, but in a dinner with. Awesome.
I'm going to tell him about it. It'll put off with him wanting to watch Jijitsu. There's no way I'm watching that. No way I'm watching that.
I love Nicholas Cage, but I'm sorry. I know all about that. How's he made a decent film? I don't know what he's last decent film.
One actually was gone in 15 seconds. Did you not like Mundi? No. Nobody got it.
Then you like horror films. That one was messed up. It's just Nick Cage. I think he's going to the point now where he realizes he's just a complete out of parody.
So he like just goes with it. Just as everything gets paid. Exactly. He gets paid.
So I think we've got a few news items. So we're going to get into the news. I like you, Savi yours. Well mine that is not on your list is the Michael Keaton news.
I haven't read too much about it, but I'm guessing it's to do with the fact that Michael Keaton is returning as Batman in a Batman film. No. Oh, so this is where I lost off on the when I read the article. I am in the flash film.
They're doing flash. Oh my god. They're doing flash playing paradox. They're doing the flash points.
So there's going two of my ones in it. I'm going to have my next comment back. He's been Batman and they're doing and Keaton's going to be another one. So they're going to do the multi-person as well.
Wow. So the next thing I'm going to bring the multi-person to is is everything Morgan clean. It's not being announced or anything. The only thing that's been announced because I know it was about six months ago that said we were 12 spring Michael Keaton said due to the pandemic he wasn't going out and filming.
So he kind of got called Warren, but it was announced yesterday that he is going to be playing Simon and he's playing Batman. So the flash is going to have two. The only thing I'm not too sure about as well because I know that said that Cyborg wasn't going to be in it again due to the controversy with Octoclatum, but said that there's no version of the film where there's not a bible going to. So there's not even a massive part.
If you've seen the animated Flashpoint card which I did, these animated films are by non-immasons. They blow up and this is coming from me. This is not the prelims, Marvel fan girl. They blow their animated films out of the water.
I mean, I absolutely love them. And Flashpoint, I think I've seen a hundred times and there is not, not it, but you could not have Cyborg on that film. I've always loved the Flash as a character. I don't think he's ever had decent wealth other than Zoom and reverse Flash.
There's not really being any decent Flash villains that I've gotten bored with because Batman has the best villains. I don't have anyone say is Rogue. It's not a great place. It's not be touched.
But the whole Flashpoint story was quite interesting. I used a little bit of actually one's original comics as well. So it was quite cool to have. But I'm not going to fold it that one.
I know a lot of people think about it. I think Ezra Miller has done the Flash justice in the Justice League. He was one of the, even in both cuts, he was like a standout performer. Oh definitely.
I think Ezra Miller has that effect on any party takes even when he was in God the best thing I ever saw him in was when you talk about Kevin. I was a man with the watch. It wasn't it. And then you had him in the Fantastic Beasts franchise as well.
He does. He takes every part. He is fantastic in it. But at the time when Justice League came out, we went heavily into, I always say me and un-cause it's like me and un-situ, whatever the other end.
But we were heavily into the Flash and we completely dropped off it now. We just got the point where we were getting too complicated even for us and we understood what kind of was going on. So we lost off. But at the time we were heavily into it and Grant.
Grant Gustin? Yeah. Gustin. He was our Flash.
And so Ezra Miller, we were not interested in it until we watched the Zack Snyder and we thought he was fantastic. He really did steal this thing. He stole everything he was in without managing the true machinery. I gave it a comical point.
As a Flash, this is a light heart. I always thought when the top of it made me Flash films, I put in the Flash influence. I always wanted Ryan Reynolds. As the Flash, I thought that would have been the third at the casting when he said he got the green.
Ryan Reynolds before Green Lantern. Yeah. I hear that. I get that.
What was that film he was called? The College One he was in. It was an Apple and Prunes. That's it.
That's it. I was a big fan from two girls. Two girls. Two girls.
Two guys. And a girl in the pizza shop. That's something like that. Yeah.
And he was the watchers. I think he just used to watch the was about April. We watched it too. The thing off near the Fillion was actually in it as well.
Yeah. He was the boyfriend. He was Johnny. We saw we have a new MS was Johnny.
Who I always said should have been cast as the Green Lantern for so long. He's been the voice of the Green Lantern and then quite the few of the animated films. If he does not get a decent role within either Marvel or DC, I will be living. He's really good friends with James Gunn.
Yeah. He's actually in Guardians of the Galaxy as well. Oh yes. He's like a big giant thing.
Isn't that Rob Zombie? No. The one where the group was that was near the Fillion. That was near the Fillion.
Oh. I just want to see. He's so good. I just want to see him doing more.
So we'll move away from the Batman and what was next on the agenda. We'll move to another man. Spiderman. So it was a new girl last week.
And there's been lots of rumors going about so many different things. I was going to be in the news Spiderman film. I've heard Charlie Cox has got a big play in Dead. I'll return as Peter's lawyer.
I got like I said told me Mcguire and Andrew Garfield's meant to be returned as well. One thing I did come out and it looks like it has been confirmed by the act himself. That Alfred Mollina is going to be coming back to reprise the role of Top Oak because he's done an interview with Variety where he was talking about the role and said he was apprehensive coming back because it was about 17 years ago since he cleared the role and he doesn't think he can do it physically. But what he said is funny enough.
The director John Watz has said they're going to be using the technology that they used in the previous Avengers films to DH like Samuel Jackson and Captain Marvel and Twinsburg. Marvel are getting their money's worth on that tech mind, aren't they? So it looks like we are going to be getting the multiverse again. Just in a different form.
So really this because I've just thought it's in my head. That has to be some form of multiverse. If these rumors are true about Andrew Garfield and Toby Mcguire coming back within the Spiderman universe and obviously with the success of In the Spiderverse, the other girl, introducing that inter-live action would be a good idea because people are kind of, we understand what the multiverse means now. What does that mean for Dr.
Strange? Because Dr. Strange is Dr. Strange and the multiverse of something madness, that's it.
So what does that mean? Are all these going to link? I think so because there's rumors that Spiderman is going to be part of Dr. Strange and Dr.
Strange is going to be part of Spiderman. Now again, Jamie Foxx is supporting the role of Electrol that hasn't been confirmed also as well. And going go on, what's coming with his name now? Oh my gosh.
William DePaul. William DePaul is going to be returning as well. As long as Franco is not coming back, I don't care. You just want to punch Franco in the face when you see that film.
Yeah, it seems a lot. That's going to be going on. I was hoping for the whole storyline with Crea and the Wonderbird to know what he's going on. But again, making sense of everything that's been happening, it does kind of make sense with the whole more theatrical, like when they have the Spiderman post in the background, when it wasn't the Tom Holland Spiderman of course, it was the Tobey Maguire Spiderman outfit that was on the wall.
And even though I'm getting Michael King of hate at the end of that trailer to say that, like the vulture was part of that world as well, but if it's a movie verse, that then makes sense. The whole process. It just seems like Marvel and like Brancin Ouch in such a way that's going to, I think, and this is just me, I think going to help bring the X-Men into it. I'm trying in my head to figure out how the X-Men fit into this.
Now we all thought it was going to happen with Wondervision. It didn't. We thought it was going to be the whole reverse of House of Ben that obviously didn't happen. And this is just my way of thinking that with the two films going to coincide with multiverses, is this how we get the X-Men into the MCU?
Because I just personally can't see how you've been smack fan of the mutants into the world that we already know. Well, that was said that mutants were born. That was the whole definition between them. So I can't say that many mutants have been hit with the world of superheroes that's coming about for so many years.
I think it's an impossibility now if it was five years into the Marvel universe, yes. But not at the stage now where we've had the whole massive battle with the Thanos and the new stuff, because the mutants would have been apart. So that's one of the things with them between their warmaging, Caudie Rhodes, Rhodes, Caudie Halle, with Rhodes and Cap Marvoli, was like, we're all about the superhero, but where have you been? Because she needed to be explanation as to why you haven't been here and she gave a good one.
But it's the same with the X-Men how do you explain Charles Xavier in the MCU right now? Yeah, unless he's been clogged in the, like say, using his powers to hide them away off, there's not as many as basically the small number rather than a large number. What I should remind myself is that my daily mantra in Marvel, I trust. I trust that Kevin Feige has a plan to bring us the X-Men in the best way possible.
But then we should go in as well because they are moving towards the fantastic old, I'd say with Blade coming into it now. So Vamoy is like Moonlight, Moonlight, Moonlight, and I get its own show. So I love Moonlight. He's so much like a sword special to us.
I just I remember reading the run, it was one of your year ago, and Pusters Crying that actually like every issue because I was like, I can't believe I just finished that. It was fantastic. I'm happy with the casting then what was Roman, when they were saying that Daniel Radcliffe was my big player and I wasn't too into tears. I'm not overly excited about Oscar Isaac, I'm not.
Obviously, he's been reading me, he's put online. No, I don't know. I just don't know how to feel about it yet because he's not how I pictured him. It seems a bit too small.
I always expected Mark to be a little bit more taller, but hey, I'll probably be eating me words. Tom Hardy can play at the end. Tom Hardy is 85. What?
This is not the time to bring Tom Hardy into a conversation when it comes to me. I get heated, I get heated. I got a lot of hate a few years ago for something I put on the internet and said on a YouTube video about Tom Hardy. So it's not a good idea to bring Tom Hardy around me.
Really? Well, we'll leave Tom Hardy for another day unless you bring Max into the question and then that's it. I'll go off on one. Anyways, next on the agenda?
The other thing I picked up on that this week was the Mega City One update that they're looking to bring into dread into the TV movement like planned and Karl Urban's in talks to reprise the role. Now, it hasn't been picked up by a network yet, but I would love to say that on sale. So, Netflix, where they're taking budgets and maybe not focused too much on dread, just maybe on the actual Mega City. Let's go through the other dread.
I really enjoyed the Karl Urban's version of dread. And to be honest, for all I've heard, he's a bit of a dick at conventions. I really love Karl Urban, especially the boys. I'm not the great, like, at the moment.
So, he's ex-K, he's got a full plate. I don't know. Oh, are there other friends? No, I'd be used to go out to it.
I think she's done a few podcast questions. I'll have to play a bit. Oh, apparently he's an absolute dick when he goes to conventions. He's not the overly-friendly as a person to go and do a meet and greet with.
Do you know what though? I've never done conventions like that where you go and they go up the tables and do meet and greet. And I did one a couple of years ago, a little horror down in Manchester. Absolutely fantastic convention.
If anyone has a chance to go to them, the little horror for the little side fight, they really, it's so well-organized. Brilliant venue, massively spaced out. And the guy from your carolins listeners, they should be laughing at back off. It's the guy from the Lost Boys, Tim Capella, the saxophone guy.
Oh, God. The nicest person I have ever met. Me and Karolin, we went and me and Karolin and my brother went down. It was the Lost Boys, all of them, including Capella.
Karolin got to make a piece of the London, given some about original artwork. But yeah, our brother was getting all the signatures, but we were standing with him. So I got a chance to make Alex Wintener and all of the Lost Boys, apart from Corey, him obviously, from Corey Brown. But he was such a gentleman, he'd probably give me in Karolin time, even though we weren't paying for anything.
He was just such a lovely lovely guy. Give me a face-to-face down there on that one song for... I saw him before it live as well, and that was great. But I didn't know it was actually a saxophone player who changed the turn a few years.
So he has had his own music career, but he probably has dined out on the Lost Boys for the last few years. But who cares? If you ever get a chance to go and see him in a convention, do it. He's fantastic.
And the last time I went to the big convention, with down in Manchester, I've come what was. But this shows how long it was. Simon Peggen across the promoting Hot Foes. Oh, wow, that was a long time ago.
So they've done a panel, and I sat in on it and they were absolutely hilarious. They didn't actually talk about the film once. I mean, half-nail were talking about holding the fight ninjas and pilots. Pirates.
We've already went somewhere else there. Yeah, I've been with good adventures in conventions, but I've not been to a proper one. I've always seen a bit of a left-down, to be honest. Never been to the big one in Newcastle.
I did a lot of local ones because I talk along with Carolyn when she's selling her artwork. And do you know what? For all it's just a small convention. Only I would say people who were local would know about it.
Obviously I don't know. I can't imagine a lot of people would come out of the way for it. But if you have a chance to go to GSA Comic Con, do it. Because that is one fun.
Fantastic. The out. I mean, Carolyn, I've watched it a couple of times and just had an absolute blast. It is wonderful.
Absolutely wonderful. But we also did Star Wars Europe. Star Wars Celebration Europe in 2016. That was an experience.
We went down to London and went on the side of the... God, the Rogue One was on the Friday. So that would be a mismatch. We didn't go...
We didn't go on the Friday. We went to the Saturday. But the Rogue One panel was on the Friday. On the Saturday, it was Mark Hamill signing.
Right. And I would have been a fan survey. Oh my God, yeah, we didn't do that. We didn't do that.
Bush. Bush. So when you went there, there was his booth here. And he's taken all of these photographs like on one side.
On the other side was the official merchandise page. And you had to get passes to go into it. You had to get a time to go back on the lines of CUBE as massive. So we did.
And as we were coming out, we turned our backs to walk backwards. And we could see Mark Hamill just to the side. So the week last night, it was supposed to be Mark Hamill. We did it twice.
We came from the corner of the aisle, blessed it. Yeah. And you know what? The kick of the teeth was, we were so tired.
It was such a long day. On your feet all day. And we were like, we're going back to the hotel, trying to go on chill out. And not long after we left, Mark Hamill didn't impromptu CUBE in the middle of the floor.
Go to it. Go to the word. I'm on the page. It's called Michael.
And he's been to the San Diego. Went a few years ago, but he always dances as well. But he's a massive dread friend as well. He's the one who posted all the artwork for dreading on the page and stuff.
Oh, wow. It's not like a original art whip and joke and stuff like that. But yeah, yeah, he always winds up because he's actually been to San Diego. And I'll get that one day.
That is the dream. Yeah. See, this was my unstring for a long time was to do San Diego Comic Con. We kind of, we kind of went down the grade that dream too.
We don't mind doing Windacon or Dragon Con or. I've got a bit of an ex-se I think it's going to take a hit. San Diego Comic Con this year is actually in November and not August, not July. It's not in July.
It's in the Thanksgiving weekend of Thanksgiving. That's when it is. And I think you'll find over the next few years, it'll be very downgraded from what it has been. But let's move on to the big reveal yesterday that Marvel gave us.
I was surprised by the cover of that film. No one was expecting the Shang-Chi trailer. Shang-Chi and the go on and the. I just kept saying, and it's the 10 rings.
It was what it is. I was expecting the niggas. I said, niggas are big fan of the genre and stuff. I actually, I don't really know much about Shang-Chi and the backstory.
I was never a fan of the comics. No, I think. I'm looking at the trailer. It looked like a cross between Crouch and Tiger in Dragon.
Yeah. That was a good one. I just grabbed and Tiger and I was like, well, yeah, but it's in a Marvel way. So you can't see anything bad about Marvel to make.
Well, you can, but I'll argue with that. And I'm quite excited for the true Mando. Mando. Mando.
I'll say no. You want to say Mandalorian, don't you? Mando. Mando.
Mando. Mando. Yes. Mando.
Yes. Mando because we had a fake one. Yeah, one, two, three. But didn't he look fantastic as in the whole?
Yeah. Ben Kingsley and Guy Vichy. I like to say, because he came out with the pretend one. I was in half of it, he tried to do it.
He was the guy behind it. But I've just said, you can't see anything bad about Marvel to. It was then I realized I am a man. I'm a man.
I'm a man. I should say it exists. Yes. Yes.
And the whole people blown up with no. Yes. Because I've heard rumors about this as well, but there's going to be a dragon in this. Big thing of fun.
Wow. Well, he's going to be a big influence. I hope that this sparks an interest in this. Because it'll be the same as what happens when Guardians of the Galaxy.
This is just personally, but when Guardians of the Galaxy came out. And when it comes to new things, I'm not someone who has to, I can just go on with a seizure and go, all right, OK, well, that's that. I'll then go into the fact end of it. Just like I did with Guardians of the Galaxy.
When I wanted to know about them, I found out all the runs, all the issues that I could get a hold of that wasn't all. And just how it through them. And I'll probably do the same with this as well. But that's the thing with the Guardians of the Galaxy.
It's a noun. So you looked at the artwork, the broader, and you thought, this is what you're doing. This doesn't fit in with Iron Man, this is what they hit it out the part with that first trailer. Because as soon as you're sure, the trailer, I have to watch this photo.
Hooked on a feeling. And it was the, I can still hear it in my head today. And it keeps on going. Well, you see it each fight single.
Oh. It was just the line up as well. I can say when it all started, like in the line up, I'm going to be this one. Yeah.
It's quite like this is going to be right on my screen, like the game-wise. Yeah. And I'm not big on the martial arts. I say the last martial arts type thing I enjoyed was probably the third level, the original one, the whole, with the backstory of the hand and stuff.
Oh, yes. Quite a bit. It was the same anti-other day about the hand. I was like, what if I will do my hands, don't they?
I mean, they have a hand. And then he got the hand in Falcon and Wind and Soldier. And he was like, I need more hands. And I'm like, no, but this isn't too enough.
No, but I'm like, yeah. Again, I'd say there was an expert in the trailer. No, not a good thing. I saw the, I got notification of the poster first.
Mm-hmm. And then it was like, oh, no, not a supposed-er but you get a trailer too. And the trailer looked, it has that Iron Man and Ant Man and Doctor Strange familiarity about it, of an origin story because I think Marvel have got the origin mapped format and mapped out perfectly. And it did have that feel to it, but that's not to say that I am not all over this shit.
Because I love them three films. I think that's what's quite surprising is the release. It's not that far away. I think it's a shame.
Wasn't it? Yeah. Well, just give us a bit of an off-assment. I just want to see it now.
I'm absolutely sick. I need to see this. Yeah, we'll talk a little bit about Black Widow and the next podcast when we're doing the full rundown of our sort of cause it's elements that I want to discuss. We'll come back, believe that.
Yeah, we'll leave that. So we'll leave that. Yeah, because we're going to next week is going to be completely not be focused on Father and Wind and Soldier because the final episode will be airing on Friday and we're just going to do a full decade of podcast here. So we're not talking shush.
Yes. So that's the news. So the news I raise for this bit. I'm ready for this bit.
Yes. This is the top five. And this week. It's your choice.
But- But your choice. So- My choice. My choice. My choice.
Now I said- That's your choice. I did not just toys. I said no franchises. Has to be individual things.
Yes. Yeah. So- Cause it'd be easy. I'd be like, well, I like Star Wars and I'd be like, Transformer and so that would just be a crap one.
And so I thought it would be a little bit harder. And- Afro- But all that I picked it, I probably found it harder than you did. Because I only finished this this morning. Well, I got to be top four instantly.
Right. The fish one was a little bit of a struggle. Cause I kept on bouncing from different things. Cause the top four with anything from me, you're like, singing a love.
It's been reattached or there's a story behind it. So I've got a few stories for you as well. So I should kick you in the present. But with the big, your pick, I'll let you go first for the first one.
Okay. So this is the top five toys of our childhood. So it is 90s I'm expecting. Right.
Yeah. Yeah. So we'll start with- So I was very much a figure kind of person. I didn't own my sister today, but I didn't own Barbies.
I didn't- I mean, how did I have any- I didn't have Barbies? I'm not going to all from Tia Gada to that count. That's a true story. Um, but- Oh, I meant it wasn't.
I was very much a figure kind of person, and I couldn't just do five figures. So I had to really go into the facts of my brain. So if my family member was listening to this, they would agree with me, which I'm referring to my sister. So I'm going to start with the one that got away.
Ella Roo from the Wuzzles. 1985 release. I even put the dates down. I've got the dates as well.
I've got the date as well. I've got the date as well. Disney and Hasbro, 1985. Ella Roo, the Wuzzles.
Can you remember them? No, I don't. So the Wuzzles were half and half. So you had Ella Roo, so elephant and candoroo.
So there was an elephant on top and a candoroo. Ah, yeah. So we like milled the colours and stuff like that. Yes.
And then he has Bumble Lion. Yeah, oh, god, that's just him as Batman. He has not. Yeah, he has.
Oh, so I was like, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. God, they were not. They were not. And so Ella Roo was- he was the one that got away.
We used to- you remember that in the area, he was called by a- Mom used to put the clothes on the horse line in front of the fire to dry them off. Why? I don't know. Because they would absolutely stink.
But Ella Roo went on the wash, went on the clothes horse, went on the fire. Let me see it again. He got- he got- I had a few of yours. He got scorched, though he had like scorch marks on him.
But I still can't- Things that he do to your toys. He got that kid from Toy Story isn't the guy- the lad next door. He don't say that because it was a time when I did get grounded but it couldn't always sit his barbie's hair off and gel pen in them. So- Yeah, no, I was talking to anyone about this.
I'll probably be talking about Sean a lot during these podcasts because he's like a little nerdy brother in the way. Well, that's the same of me in Carolyn. So if Carolyn comes off, that's why he made the same. But I was texting him like, I was telling him about the podcast what we're doing.
For some reason he liked the text this last week. He can tell us that he was watching as well. He was in the bathroom a little creepy but- Well, we'll leave it there. But- Okay, I do.
But he'd be absolutely horrible with his toys. He used to go to these stretch arms. He used to tell me- he's sis- he told me- he's sis- well, one Christmas. That Santa wasn't real.
I mentioned it- Oh yeah. Um, he told- I'm sure he'd be well- He told- Oh, shit. He was- He was- Oh, he is- He is- I'm not taking that title. He can have that title.
I'm not taking it. That is horrible. So I'm just- He's just so magical. Yeah, go on.
What's your first run? I'll say if I can do this, I've been practicing- say if I'm sharing my screen. Pick up pictures. I'll pull- Pull's all professional.
You just have to get with mine. So, Zach, come up. So, if it was the 1986 Kenneth, real ghost forces- Pro-ompack. Um, it's basically- I was- I think I was about seven- I'd year- when I first got it.
Um, the trigger used to pull and used to make a noise. The foam bit used to come out as well. Um, you used to even have a sloughed- on it as well. Where you could put the little- Geiger count there.
If you got that separately. I don't know which one. Oh, going so? Yeah.
You can get these now, still, by the way. Yes, I was- That was very expensive. The reason why I love it so much is- I remember when I was younger, because I used to live down Rogue Park. You start the Halloween party each year.
Oh, it's a good three- Yeah. Um, so yeah, I'll come back. Uh, yep. So, Rogue Park used to have a Halloween party every year.
And, basically, I went to one year- I dressed as the ghost- was starting to use me for an unpack. And I spent the whole night- she has an everyone that was dressed as a ghost or a horror thing. So, one-all the bloke. Must have got sick as he turned on, he was dressed as an unpack.
And he kissed that as- and I've never shit myself so much that I ran back to my mum, right? But I loved it. Um, I don't know what I've ever had- Oh, oh, that's- But, um, yeah, that's my number one. Oh, that- You know what?
It's not in mine, because I- my memory is so bad. So, but in Caroline will- will agree with this. She calls me Dory. It's absolutely horrendous.
I remember it, and I can still- See, I have a thing about- my memories are about- like, I can remember what that form felt like on- and how the plastic feels as well. But I can't remember if I actually owned it, there was two things that I can't- I definitely didn't own Actor One. Right, yeah. Which I was devastated by, because my mum's best friend, so he had it.
I didn't have it. Um, but- and also the- the pro-Chompak, I can't remember for the- like this- the ad-hando he had it, didn't put it on the list. Yes, but I- I can see that with that. That was my fondest memory of like, see the- I mean, that was- I mean- That was- Yes, because I had the trap- my trap didn't orbit, nor- I know the- in a trap a few years later, I think online you pressed it a little.
But it was one of- I choose this one if I- we can't just say it, we can't just react to the picture, we have to say what it is. It was a pro-Chompak. No, but it was- it was a- it was a kind of- it was a kind of a like, stored on-pack. Um, like say it was- when you touched it, it was the most flimsy thing you've ever touched.
It was just like- Yeah, you could- you could feel the whole- exactly- this is what I mean by- like my memory over- feeling things like- it's not on me list, but- I had a she- rough again, what the bloody hour with the big ears. I can't remember what the name of it was, but I had that, and I can still remember how the felt feels on each other. Which I- It was weird how my memory works. I remember I was pissed off because we put that- um, when I got money like say when the piece popped in my toys, the form on the pro-Chompak, it better took a chunk out of it.
So, it had teeth marks in for years, I was a brilliant- I don't think my sister was quite interested in my toys, I can't really remember. We used it- I was a very weird person, I used to like, setting things up. So, for all, I never had a lot of girly toys. I did have an industry equivalent- it's not on me list, but she was the equivalent of Orpenny.
No, she was Orpenny. She was the equivalent of- party pop-ish, which was bigger. And you know what, Orpenny, she was- Blondhead, pigtail girl, family, used to come like houses and diners and things, and I used to set it all off this massive Orpenny structure and put it all away. Cause it used to take us ages to do it.
So, we're moving on. Yep, number two. Number two. I'm gonna go with- I'm gonna- do you know what?
You use visual two seconds. I actually have mine. Alright. So, I'm gonna get this one out of the way with them, cause I don't know what I want to put.
The 1984 Tumka release of- Poundpobby. Poundpobies, Jesus. I used to have a tiny one. I know you used to have a tiny one like that, but you used to have a tiny one.
This is George. I've had him- he's got many doors. He has no doors. And I've had him forever.
He's not dead eyes though. I remember that. The eyes just always be dead. Yeah, Poundpobby.
My auntie has one- my auntie is in much better condition than what mine is. I still think that she has the box. I still think he sits in the box. But mine, obviously, has seen some better days.
And he comes everywhere with us. I've had him forever. And I think he accidentally fell off the back of the truck. Alright.
I think I got him for Christmas. But he's yeah. This is George. Everything when I was a kid of I owned, they didn't already have a name.
It's called George. George. But the couple of them used to be different sizes though, didn't they? Yeah.
Different types of things. I remember I- I remember that. I remember that. And I thought- I've got the colours of it.
I think it was black and white. So black- Yeah, you go back on white and there was a cream and brown one. And then obviously George, who is brown. And but yeah, Poundpobie.
I couldn't not include him given that he was like- I'm not even everywhere with us. When we, you know, last house that we were in, he was always on the back of the couch. He's just not on the back of the couch now, because the couch is a question. He doesn't have a back on it.
So he's in my room with me. Yeah, he's in my room with me. I've had him- I'll go- So when did that come up 1984? And I was born in 83.
So I'm going to say I probably had him run about release time. I've had him since he came out. Now I'm annoyed because I don't actually warn any of mine. And when I've looked at them now, the price of them is absolutely ridiculous.
It's the one thing that I love my mother. But my mom emptied my toilet cup without. And in my toilet cup it had- Oh my gosh, what's this big as that? Oh now an absolute fucking fortune to buy.
I'm furious. Yes. So I'll bring up my next one. I couldn't find an exact date for this one.
You know, it was in between 1983 or 1984. It was- Yeah. This one was in a towel. So it kind of gives you a hint of what it's going to be.
Yeah. Okay. Okay. So I'll get the picture again.
It's not Castle Greer School, but it is my own snake and mountain clear set. I can't believe you had this. So you know that part of the house I was telling you about? The ones with all the great toys.
Yes. They got this for Christmas. But this one was like, I preferred this. I had like, when I'm looking back now, I must have been spoilt as a kid.
Because I had this and I had Castle Greer School. I didn't have this, but I did have Castle Greer School. Again, another thing that I can remember. I preferred this over Castle Greer School for the second time.
I would always have like- I could see it with the snake mountain. Or bit when at the top where you pulled off the snake, you could actually talk into it and kind of make your voice echo. So kind of- Oh, is that what that kid's doing? Yep.
So that does look very good. No. What's the same as you didn't want to- But the audio, the kids doing something very questionable. It's more than a person.
So yes. So yes. And they say the little mouth at the front, that used to move up and down. You just have a little chain where you use the triangle, your he-man figure.
So you say, I got that way. Oh, Castle Greer School never did anything like that, man. Castle Greer School just had the drawbridge. That's why I got that.
