Sewer Spitting Michelangelo and Funko Pop Voltron

About this Episode
Alrighty then. This is Scott Toy Guru Nightlake
and you're listening to the GeekCast Radio Network.
Hey, this is Scott Toy Guru Nightlake and you're
listening to ToyCast. And now, ToyCast, oh yes,
listen in to the only toy podcast you will ever
need. Hello and welcome to an all new episode
of Toycast. I am of course TFU and Mike. This
is episode 171. Yes, that is correct. 171 episodes
of Toycast. We are the Toycast Radio Network's
Toy Discussion and Topic Podcast. We've been
around since 2009, 2010, somewhere around there.
And we do something called Display Case. Skeletor,
say your line. Don't touch! Alright, we're in
the display case, and tonight we are going to
be forming blazing swords as the sewers spitting
turtles. Spit sewers spitting stuff at us, I
guess. Yes, am I going first? I don't know. I'm
just like, I'm like, what am I going to name
this episode? And I'm like, which, you know,
you mentioned to me you were really gonna do
turtles or spawn, and I'm like, yeah, I'm not
that... I don't dislike Spawn but I'm not as
like that conversation I would basically have
nothing to say about Spawn because I saw the
movie years and years ago but I don't follow
that that character or that franchise so you
are going with sewer spitting Michelangelo I
am going with Funko pop Voltron so that's why
I said we are forming blazing swords and you
can go first I can go first it doesn't matter
whoever wants to go first and go first Will go
ahead and jump in first all right, and I do want
to address The difference between eventually
one day. I'll be talking about spawn the original
spawn Comic figure that came out. I want to say
maybe 94 95 which toy experts if there is a such
thing often cite that as the transition in action
figures from being just for children to possibly
also being for adults as well. That's the awkward
phrasing of when a children's toy becomes an
adult toy, which you really need to be careful
when you Google adult toy. Yeah, don't don't
Google adult toys. Yeah, just just don't say
adult action figure. Don't ever say play thing
or anything like that. But what a pattern that
is. It was yeah, it was a figure that I'd never
had as a kid but it was something that I had
seen a lot and I had a couple of them and It
eventually will come back on the display case
because I have a weird little story of how I
got to it however What we're talking about is
a figure in the Ninja Turtles toy line That as
you kind of alluded to it has one of the most
unusual action features that you can find in
Ninja Turtle toys and if you look through the
history of Ninja Ninja Turtle toys They went
after almost every single action feature. You
can possibly think of yep. They went through
Let's just start at the beginning really quick.
They had the crazy wind -up ones that did everything
from spin a weapon to quote -unquote swimming.
Yep They had, let's see, again, the wacky action
with stuff they did. Oh, the pizza shooting turtles
where they held like a pizza oven. Pizza throwers.
Yep. Love the pizza throwers. The storage shell
turtles, the talking turtles, the head dropping
turtles. It has a lot of progress through the
years. They got weirder. The mutating turtles,
the Let's see. Where's my other? Wacky action.
They never gotten a light up. I think as far
as I can tell they never gotten a light up But
then the gimmicks rolled in And so the ninja
turtles or anything, but just basic ninja turtles
and never really we're just saying let's just
make a more ninja Let's let's give them jobs.
Let's give them hobbies. Let's give them part
-time deals Let's basically make them LARP live
-action role play because I am looking at a picture
of the four of these figures And it's just the
basic turtle figures in clothing. Yeah, and in
this particular series, the Sewer Spitting, it
was its own sub -series. It was the Sewer Spitting
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I have the carted
figure in my hand. I actually own a loose and
carted version. And holding it in my hands, this
is around when they had the sports turtles. So
track and field Leo power lift and Don. This
is also when the movie star turtles were out,
which are some of the best Ninja Turtles figures
that came out from that time period. Yeah. And
then some other interesting mutants, I think
some of the best mutants that they had from Murdo
to scale tail, Monty Moose on and so forth. But
this was something that caught my attention as
a kid. I remember seeing these. I felt that,
hey, these are kind of interesting and The reason
being is that they We're still semi like I always
cared for the ones that were semi believable
as far as the variations These are just the turtles
in beach clothes and if you look at that picture
for like you're saying you look at it I already
lost mine. I'll just pull it up on our Skype
chat and if you look at that it's the sort of
search of beach culture that was very, very popular
in the early 90s. Oh, absolutely. It was. Yeah.
So I'm going to go from Rafael, who is dressed
up as a typical bicyclist at the time. Yeah.
And then you jump over to Leonardo, who was a
lifeguard. So wearing like neon green trunks,
he had a tight tank top. That's a lifeguard.
And you can't really tell because they don't
do a lot of pain apps on these very necessary
pain apps. Yeah, no, like I said, it seems to
be the general I'm trying this because I've never
really meant I've never really noticed too much
of like Oh, that's the same tooling or oh, that's
the same head or that's the same body I will
say the torsos and the legs on all of these look
like The exact same ones of the original four
that were released except I know they're not
because on the legs they all have Better like
Mikey looks like he's wearing sandals even though
they're painted green and not a different color.
It looks We'll come back to that in a second.
Okay, and So one of the reasons why I like this
now is that it hits two things that really work
in my collection one crazy 90s neon mm -hmm and
To like outdoor beach tiki wear which fits part
of my bar collection right and all of these guys
kind of fit in with that More or less. Now, the
weirdest part on all of these is the spitting
feature, which we'll come back to later, but
I do want to address what you were saying about
the reused parts. They look like they're reused.
I can't determine that just from the pictures
without comparing. I don't think many of these
use reused parts. Maybe they reused the original
sculpt and then had like clothes sculpted over
them. That's why they might maybe look similar.
A lot of these are unique parts that don't ever
get reused, but their outfits get a lot of paint
apps. And the more I'm learning about the way
the toy industry functions is that paint apps
cost money. And every time that paintbrush puts
out a new app, it costs more money. And so from
every flower on Michelangelo's shirt to Donatello's
metallic reflective sunglasses, to even Raphael
has a good number of paint apps on his figure.
Those all cost money. So they had to cut them
in other places. And if you ever see this toy
line and you look at the original prototype pictures
on the back of the package and stuff, the paint
apps are amazing. They're they have additional
colors. The accessories are painted. The accessories
look amazing when they're painted. There's painted
detail into their outfits. So Leonardo, if you
look at the picture of the four, Leonardo looks
like he stepped in a giant pile of poop. I'm
not kidding. Like that's literally what it looks
like. Yeah. And if they had painted it a different
color, it would be a giant pile of poop. Well,
it actually he's supposed to be stepping, I think,
on a bottle of suntan lotion. So. The original
prototype it looks like he's stepping on something
that the lotion is just blur being out of yeah,
okay, so it's not like a Molding issue. It's
not like extra plastic that's been added on it's
supposed to look like that But without it being
painted you can't tell what it is Yeah exactly
because I kept I've been staring at this thing
for the last ten minutes before we started the
show when you send me this picture I'm like wiped
up is that because I'm like, wait a minute. He
doesn't have like a third Seventh toe of growing
a like it looks like a piece of fun like again
paint apps and I understand they cost money whatever
else but if that was painted a different color
or saw even if it was painted like a neon color
like not the turtle green that Leo is like Something
else maybe we could decipher what the hell it
is But at first it was like does he have a foot
growing out of his foot? What the hell is that?
Yeah, and some other issues with the line is
that you know, there are some really unique very
Interesting accessories that get zero pain apps
from a unicycle for RAF for Donatello He gets
a volleyball and a squirt gun But the interesting
thing is that they all get some sort of handheld
beverage so The lifeguard Michelangelo we're
talking about the whole series now the lifeguard
Michelangelo gets a what looks like a classic
pop bottle RAF gets some sort of soda cup Donatello
gets a soda can and my favorite is Michelangelo
he gets a Kiki mug with a umbrella on it and
a big straw and it fit his hand. Okay, and I'm
glad you experience planning this because I gotta
tell you when I first saw that I'm like, why
is he drinking out of a watering can for plants?
Well, it's obviously made a little bit more exaggerated
and what's what's interesting is that if you
look at the prototype pictures versus What is
actually produced it looks like that might have
had a handle or it was meant to be held from
the bottom and There's like a loop on it that
looks like it might yeah Try to represent now
like a slice of pineapple on the side of a drink.
Yeah and that's what my my version holds that
with and The reason why I now love this figure
and I have one carded even though the card is
all beat up and I have one loose and I actually
just found a beater one that just needs a new
hand The reason why I love this figure is that
he's been one of my longest traveling figures
for years I don't remember when I first start
traveling with him, but going to Disney, Florida
going to he didn't go to I don't think he went
to Vegas with me But he's been to Punta Cana
He's been a bunch of places with me because he
just looks like the ultimate tourist ridiculous
figure to go different places and So I've brought
the one I have downstairs in the bar right now
He doesn't do the sewer spitting action the sewer
spitting action mind you it does work. You can
fill stuff in there I think that fits about maybe
an ounce of water I feel like the sewer spitting
action comes from a brief scene in one of the
Ninja Turtle movies where one of the turtles
gets his head put into a fish tank, comes out,
and then he spits at a foot soldier right in
the face. He does that thing where you force
water between your two front teeth. Okay, so
I know this like the back of my hand. It's in
TMNT 1 from 1990, and it's actually Donnie that
does it. Yeah, it's Donnie that gets his head
dunked and then all of a sudden he's looking
at the foot soldiers. Oh Obviously doesn't make
that sound effect But that's you know, he spits
water out at the you know, whatever and Donnie
always got the great stuff I mean Donnie and
Mikey both got all the great comedy bits in the
movies so I'm not sure necessarily if That was
the inspiration for it or it was just a cheap
gimmick of that Playmates had available to them
And they're like let's go with it soft backpack
because that soft backpack for squirting water
is something that it's a gimmick that gets used
actually Quite a bit in other toy lines. It's
not uncommon. Yeah but I It's it's just such
a unique Figure in the series where it's still
Maybe a little believable if the turtles ever
went on vacation or something. It never really
Got my attention though as a kid because I still
always sucked to and I still have most of my
if they're not duplicates they're the originals
I still have most of my turtle figures from when
I was a kid and I Rarely ever went to anything
beyond what just looked like a basic turtle.
Yeah There's the the four disguised turtles I
got for that one Christmas we've spoken about
a bunch of times That's not as crazy as it got
for me. I never really went beyond that Yeah,
I never did either because I was never like by
the time so this was what the neon turtles were
like what? 92 93 these were 92. Okay. Yeah, so
92 I was 12 years old I was More into Super Nintendo
at the time at Christmas in 92 going into 93
I had moved from Massachusetts to Kentucky and
and all that and everything else and yeah, but
the most the two most like special non like The
two most special turtles that I ever really paid
attention to were two things. It was Undercover
Dawn and then it was the shell heads, the pop
-down, the we're hiding in our shells turtles.
Oh, the head dropping turtles, yeah. Yeah, those
were the two that I always kind of gravitated
towards. I always preferred the original figures
because I wanted as close to the cartoon as I
could possibly get. I had as a kid, 12 year old,
I had zero interest in these neon turtles. And
I think we all kind of hit that point in our
play patterns of it's not just like, oh, give
me any random thing. I think younger kids may
be glommed onto these because clearly with how
many you can find out in the wild, how many bins
of just dirty random turtles you can find being
sold at toy shows and toy stores. is that these
were appealing to kids at some point. They were
the turtles, they had the name on it, they were
easy gifts. I know that almost every single turtle
I ever got was a gift from an adult. The spitting
feature is weird. It's got all sorts of adult
connotations we're not gonna get into. Trust
me reading the description, which I don't think
I can read the description without feeling really
uncomfortable. You want me to do it now? Well,
fine, I'll do it. Beachcomber Mike spits in the
eyes of danger. He spits in the face of fear.
Let's face it. The boy loves to spit spit. He
does. Mike is one beachcomber who always has
his pompous pineapple drink loaded up. and ready
to splash in the face of the foot. This sand
scouring, not sand scouring, scour in, sewer
searcher loves to dig deep for buried treasure
and yesterday's lunch. And if some dumb dune
dude thinks he can lay a claim on Mike's find
or food, he'll soak the dirty dude with his sewer
spitting action. And for those really tough crooks,
Mike has the Blast them boombox gun loaded Looped
and ready to fire. So if you're on the wrong
side of the law be warned Beachcombe and Mike
will find you So I feel like Josh the floor burger
is the next announcer on the playboy channel.
I Mean so so let's let's talk about how this
sewer spitting crime fighting Ninja Turtle Fights
crime If you're doing something wrong, which
might mean you are taking his lunch from him,
or you are taking buried treasure from him, his
first approach to taking care of you is to spit
on you. Like, there's no, hey buddy, stop it.
He just spits on you. And if that isn't enough,
If that isn't enough, he takes out this legitimate
machine gun and shoots you. There's no ninja
fighting. There's no busting out nunchucks and
karate kicks. He spits on you, and if that isn't
enough, he shoots you. And then he pulls out
his lube. Oh boy, yeah, I have a problem with
this figure now. I mean the figure looks cool,
but like the way they describe this thing is
like Like again like I said I was 12 So I was
about you know kind of growing almost growing
out of the action figure stuff at the time But
imagine kids today with this to oh my god. They
wouldn't know what to do with it. Oh jeez Well
what they were thinking I think you have to get
away from emphasizing this spitting part because
that's just kind of it's it's a bit much Yeah.
But it's not water features in action figures
are classic. I have G .I. Joe's that had water
squirting features, whether it's a backpack or
a vehicle. There's a jet in G .I. Joe that literally
doesn't have shooting missiles. It has a squirt
gun handle and you fly around the jet and you
squirt stuff with it. That stuff is very classic,
but you don't. It's not. GI Joes are spitting
in the face of Cobra. That's not really a thing
that occurs. No, technically it would be the
other way around. Cobra spits in the face of
GI Joes. Yes. And to be perfectly honest, again,
it's a weird gimmick. I don't really ever use
the gimmick. So each one has a different style
backpack. So Michelangelo has a guitar. That
you could fill with water. Mm -hmm Mine is currently
filled with sand from putacana where we went
on our honeymoon Okay, I just I took it to the
beach sat there and just spent some time putting
sand in it So it won't function anymore. I pretty
much ruined it But it's like I said, it's special
because it travels with me it it it has seen
the stuff it has been in front of the castle
at Disney World Where I think it's a Walt Disney
is holding hands with Mickey and pointing out
the distance So I have the Hoff and I have this
Michelangelo Standing there taking like duplicating
the picture with that statue in the background
Wow, so yeah, that's crazy. It's a fun figure.
It's it's a must -have if you like beach 90 stuff
and It's just a shame. It did not get the paint
apps that would have really made this thing pop.
Oh before I finish Mm -hmm. So there was a re
-release of this that I was not aware of until
we started researching for this and I'm gonna
guess 1997 or so right around there. There was
a re -release and It comes from where to go This
is so exciting This is riveting radio everybody.
It's okay. Just So it says I want to guess maybe
it was 97. It's the TMNT 10th anniversary series
that came out. For some reason, I'm assuming
this 1997 or 98. It's gotta be 97 or 98 because
that's when the toy line started. So this was
out in a Ninja Power Teenage Ninja Turtles series
that came out. And it's really funny, though,
because the original toy that I have in my hands,
the package says, new, squirts water up to 48
inches. But the re -release in 1997 squirts water
up to 24 inches. So In those couple of years,
the spitting power decreased by 24 inches. Geez.
That's crazy. It's safety, kids. It's all about
safety. Yeah, it really is. I mean, if you think
about it, so yeah. So yeah, I don't have, I mean,
I have something similar. It's not, doesn't have
any action features like that or anything else,
but. It's a fun go -pop, as kind of sort of as
always, and I'm trying to find the right, there
we go, the right image of it. It is, I think
it's number 70. I don't remember if it is or
not. Oh good, that is a bigger. Oh yay, thank
you Entertainment Earth. Google images, folks,
don't get me started. I got sued. I almost got,
we almost, GCR almost got sued over a Google
image. So so yeah, but I am going to form the
blazing sword and we're gonna talk about Funko
pop of Ultron Whoo So my buddy Dan Lanay Dan,
I'm sorry if I if I butchered it He does rock
nerd radio on Hudson River on Hudson River radio
Dan and I talked about comics on the pull bag
for his origins. We talked about toys for his
origins here and Dan like most of my I mean I
have a good majority of friends now who are funko
pop fans and collectors Whatever else I also
have a majority of my friends that aren't are
not funko pop fans and collectors and he has
several of these and whatever else and He was
like, yeah, I'm trying to get rid of some of
these and I don't really know like whatever whatever
whatever So at the time I looked up on the funko
app to see what cuz he had Voltron here out of
the box so didn't come with the box so it was
basically just a loose pop so loose figures fine
but I looked it up on the Funco app and at the
time it was going for like 17 bucks I'm like
look I'll pay you 25 bucks shipped so I paid
him 25 bucks shipped and I have the the loose
Voltron Funco pop in my hand and it looks very
good it's very interesting how they did The fully
formed five lions as Voltron. Oops, sorry, I
hit the microphone. Obviously, the red lion is
the right hand, the green lion is the left hand,
the yellow lion is the left foot, the blue lion
is the right foot, and then in the middle it's
the black lion as the body and the head. But
it feels like a Funko pop, but it also feels
like a specific... Different miniature action
figure if you see what I'm saying because does
it have any articulation? No, no, no, no it doesn't
Because and the reason why it doesn't have any
articulation is because and most funko pops don't
actually Yeah, no his head doesn't even turn
I don't think it turns a little bit but barely
so the reason why some of the funko pops why
they don't hit like Some of them their heads
do turn Most of them don't if they have a specific
feature or they're holding something or if something
is in the way Okay, so he has his if you look
at the image I sent you He has his form blazing
sword and the way that the sword is formed it
basically comes The picture kind of lies the
sword in the picture sticks out more out out
from his body The one that I have that Dan sent
me, which is fine. It doesn't really stick out
from his body. He's basically stabbing himself
in the lower left jaw, essentially. But that's
fine. That's neither here nor there. He's only
going to be on my shelf, whatever. But the cool
and interesting thing about this for me is just
how they worked in a Funko Pop head along with
the giant black lion head. So if anyone knows
how Voltron works. The lions come together, they
form the arms, the legs, the body, and usually
there ends up being a face where the black lion's
head would be, but usually the black lion's head
is around the face. And they were able to do
that very well in a four -inch figure that really
shouldn't be this good, but it is. And I really
love it, and I'm a huge fan of Voltron. I've
always been a huge fan of Voltron. Lion Force.
Lion Force forever, folks. I don't... get into
the vehicle force or whatever the third whatever
that third one was lion force vehicle force and
there was another one back in the 80s but anyway
lion lion force is the most popular one with
keith and pitch and lance and princess alora
and hunk and and uh karan and zartan not zartan
um zarkon And I'm remembering all this just off
the top of my head, folks. I'm not actually looking
at anything. It's how much of a fan of the Voltron
I am. So no, I just I think it's great. It's
a nice little out of box pop thing. And I do
have some pops out of box. You know, I don't
all I don't have them all trapped in their boxes.
But like I got a bunch of Star Wars pops over
there out of box. That's a whole other discussion
for another day. But yeah, turtles and Voltron.
Blazers blazing lions roaring. Yeah, I dig that
figure it I'm looking at it and I think as much
as I've poked fun At pop figures and I probably
always will to an extent. Yeah, you know what?
It's fine. It's okay. It's not that big of a
deal I mean, don't get me wrong. There's there
are some pop figures like I actually have From
when we first started podcasting, huh? Have gotten
more So I still have the two Goliath pops those
are some of my oldest somewhere I have an angry
beaver pop. He's hiding around here somewhere
I have the lilu pop which blew your mind that
I have that loose and just sitting on my shelf
Well that blew my mind because I'm like which
version because like one of the versions of the
lilu pop is like crazy expensive if you have
that I think it is or you those fifth element
pops man Boy yeah, and I got it for clearance
when it came out and And then I have a fallout
pop which I don't remember where that came from
but I have and then I also have and I can't forget
it Video game pop correct not fallout boy not
Pete. Yes, and then I have the Michael Knight
one that you sent me that I'm still wanting to
create a proper place for all of my Knight Rider
stuff, which it's coming but We were getting
new flooring so I have to reset the room in the
next couple months anyways, so I The thing I
admire about pops and I think they do this every
so often is that They're releasing certain toys
or properties Voltron if you already try to get
a good size decent Voltron right now. We're talking
about 100 200 300 400 bucks depending what company
you get it from Yeah, but if you just want Voltron
and you don't care about it being a giant transforming
Voltron this does it this does the job you need
oh, yeah, absolutely and You know, I I could
look through and see if there's some similar
Power Ranger ones So if I ever wanted to sell
my Power Rangers ords and just get the pop versions
if they're ever out there They're probably cheaper
So I don't know which ones of them are actually
vaulted now. Some of them are more expensive
than others, but there are a number because I
have green and white Ranger because it's Tommy.
I have Lord Zed and I have I think I think those
are the main three I had, but they do have Power
Rangers pops. Well, only the only critique I
have of that pop and I don't know if anybody
actually like reviews them out there. Maybe plenty
of people do. But yeah, good. And this is maybe
the same thing. I'm looking at the Power Rangers
Megazord pop as well. Hundred dollars. Holy cats.
Forty dollars. OK, some different seller. But
is I know the oversized head is just kind of
an aspect of Pops that is just their aesthetic,
their style. But each of the heads on that. Voltron
of the other lions, they all have the same big
blank bug eyes. But I almost kind of feel like
those also have to be oversized oversized each
one of them because those are four other heads
so I Think there is a low so I what I have is
the four inch the regular size Funko pop version
of it I think there is a larger six inch version
of this I would have to do research on that to
actually figure out but I think there is a Slightly
larger version of it somewhere. Well, I'm sure
You know, there's just a funny little critique
of like, you know all that all the lines are
roughly the same size and Yep, they all have
at least they all have yellow eyes and they don't
all have well The yellow one has blue eyes, but
that's because it would be stupid if the yellow
one had Yellow eyes because you wouldn't be able
to see the eyes Yeah, now i'm just trying to
get all five of my cats to stand on each other
so I can call them boltron That's funny That
is so funny. Oh that okay, so I have Okay, so
without looking because my phone's on the charger
in the other room So I can't actually look at
the funko app and don't even get me started on
them I'm having issues with the funko app just
recently updated and it's a whole nightmare.
But anyway, I have the regular Green Ranger I
have the regular I have the white Ranger with
Saba. I have Lord Zed and I have the six inch
tiger Zord funko pop so that's one of the larger
ones that uh that they have out there for those
but yeah the mega zord actually the one i'm looking
at here on on amazon the glow in the dark one
the regular size one it's the exact same size
as the as the voltron one oh that's funny it's
uh glow in the dark and it's only like like 40
bucks on amazon But what's funny is, so Voltron,
as we all know, blue lion is the right leg, yellow
lion is the left leg. On the Megazord, the yellow
Sabertooth Tiger is the right leg, and the blue
Triceratops is the right, is the, yellow is the
left, they're basically reversed of each other.
That's funny. I always knew Power Rangers was
kind of like Voltron, but I never really like...
Really really looked at it, but yeah, no very
cool Man, I'm my dad. Oh, man. There's only one
left in stock order soon. Damn it. I Kind of
man you throw me down all kinds of rabbit holes
cuz now I'm like dang I kind of oh man the glow
on that thing is so cool the legs glow and Yeah,
I saw the top of the ah Am at what can I just
meet some rich alky and they leave me in there
will anyway Also, I can't I'm trying to send
you something through chat and Skype and I can't
what is that? I can't do it. What don't touch
the buttons There's something I just saw that
is way too expensive for either of us. So I think
one of the next things I need to do on this display
case, I want to tackle spawn, but I think I need
to also challenge myself a little bit and go
out of the mainstream. So I'm going to dig, I
think, for the next one, unless you had a theme
you were looking for. Well, display case is over
for this episode. We'll have to do it for the
next episode. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. It's
up to you. I try to keep these things loose and
just have fun with it. I don't go into super
