Supernatural! Supernatural! Supernatural Hello
and welcome to episode 49 .5 of Toycast sponsored
by Big Bad Toy Store where you can save from
20 to 90 % on over 1 ,000 items. I am your host
DFG1Mike and joining me is Steve Megatron. Hello.
Hello. How are you sir? Doing well. Yay, and
people may be asking why are they doing a 0 .5
episode? Well because wanted to give everybody
one more chance to Enter the contest give you
more details on that as well as inform you that
episode 50 Will not be recorded until after the
contest deadline, which is March 29th 2010 most
likely this First the end of the first week or
the beginning of the second week of April So
yeah What's going on with you Steve trying to
regain my uh health uh as far as it's been lately
and uh try and watch some of my uh batman dvds
which i got in monday yay oh man we just finished
recording beast unleashed episode six and Thank
God it was much lighter than it was. It was almost
like Rodimus came in and opened the matrix on
us and kicked our ass because, wow, it was so
much lighter humor than it was in episode five
of that show. Oh boy, we dodged a huge bullet.
Thank God Michael Wilson did not make any references
to the fucking Rocky Horror Picture Show. Yeah,
he missed that, but he got narwhals in there.
No, he didn't. Don't think you did I'll have
to go back and if I go back and I listen to that
again before as I'm putting it together I will
cut that out So again one of the reasons why
we're doing a 49 .5 before episode 50 is to give
you guys yet another update on the contest The
episode 50 contest basically what it is is general
techno our other co -host who is not here this
evening is going to be giving away a Recon Ravage.
For most of you who know, Recon Ravage is a mail
-away figure from Hasbro US, but up in Canada
they released it as a Toys R Us exclusive, so
he had bought an extra one and said, hey, for
episode 50, why don't I give this one away? To
enter the contest it's very simple. There's no
trivia question There's no nothing really hard
to do all you have to do is call us and leave
us a voicemail or if you want to send an mp3
to our email address the email address to send
that to is tfg1podcast at gmail .com The voicemail
number is 502 -526 -5821 I would say the messages
need to be less than five minutes I didn't really
put a time limit on it, but You know all you
gotta do is you can either say hey, I really
enjoy toy cast or if you want to do your own
toy review you can review anything whether it's
a Transformers toy or another toy line toy So
Steve is going to be giving us an update on his
Joker customization. Take it away Megatron Hello.
Yes, I am currently creating my Batman Beyond
return to the Joker Joker Yes, future Joker.
I'm using a Nightwing body from the new Adventures
of Batman. And basically I popped the head from
Nightwing and I took a Secret Society Joker from
the Justice League, popped the head off that,
put that head on the Nightwing body. and have
sanded down the hair to the point where it's
smooth like on Batman Beyond. And then pretty
much all I'm waiting for now is to go out and
buy the paint so I can do the paint apps to it.
It's hopefully going to be done soon. I do have
pictures up on Twitter and Facebook at this point
in time, but I'll probably have a full review
of it. Get cast radio when I get done on under
toy cast. Mm -hmm But yeah, it's so far. It's
looking pretty cool. I do want to try and make
a gun Like what he used to kill a bomb bomb But
for now, I'm just going to settle on Getting
the face and head to look right the body I still
have yet to paint that dark purple and add the
accent for the the lighting Yeah. It's funny
you mentioned when he killed Bonk. I'm often
fond of putting in audio of whatever toy I can
find. Like say we talk about a certain toy or
whatever. I'm often fond of going back and finding
audio from that character or that scene or whatever
it is. So I may actually go back on my Batman
Beyond Return of the Joker DVD and grab that
little clip there where he kills Bonk. Oh, yeah,
that's right dead. Oh No, I don't even own the
on the the cut version Yeah, you know the only
real subtle do I mean that there are more differences
in in the Between those two versions of the DVD
but the only real difference for me is in the
cut version instead of Joker mini Joker Tim Drake
Joker, whatever the hell you want to call him
Little J or whatever the hell it is and no, we're
not talking about Joker's little J Yeah, it's
The only difference between the two is in the
cut version The Joker slips on some water and
electrocutes himself Whereas in the uncut version
he gets his leg caught in a well, that's what
I'm saying He gets himself caught on something,
slips in a pool of water, and pulls the electro
-switcher thing -a -whatever. Whereas the cut
version, Tim shoots him. Yeah. I like the one
where you get shot better, even though it's more
definitive. I'm sorry, but an electrical scene?
The Joker could probably get out of that. Being
shot in the chest? Not so much. He's like that's
not funny. That's not funny at all. Oh Boy, um,
so yeah, there's that are you having else to
say about your Joker customization? Not much
yet. I'm I'm hoping to get the paint so I can
get the face done up like the Movie because I
actually got the wrong Joker base model Well
the paint app anyway, yeah, if I got the correct
one, I wouldn't have to do as much paint work.
I could have just I could have actually taken
a black marker and mark it in his scalp right
I didn't so now I have to paint the whole face
It'll give you something to do in your spare
time yeah Yeah Yeah Continuing with my robot
heroes talk I've been doing this I think since
episode 45 I had said that I was going to talk
about all the robot heroes that I have between
episodes 45 and episode 50 And this time around
I'm going to be talking about the two back of
silver bolt and Megatron for the Beast Wars robot
heroes series I Hate silver bolt as a robot hero
this design is fugly as all hell. His head is
somewhat cartoon accurate. I know General Tecna
will probably call in or email me or tell me
something on Twitter what these actual leaf -looking
swords are supposed to be a reference to, but
no. This is the worst repaint of Silverbolt I
have ever seen. He has a gold leaf on his crotch
which kind of looks like a scorpion his wings
and Tail on his back are colored gold and blue
ish Just no this this thing sucks Yeah, no, there's
only one silverbolt repaint that I actually want
is of the beast machines figure It's the Japanese
repaint where he's more purple than pink But
yeah, no this one sucks It's just one of those
things where I just I don't like him and I think
the only reason why even and it's funny that
the way he comes it's actually packaged as Uh,
Transformers, Robot Heroes, Beast Wars series,
Silverbolt, and Megatron. So in the packaging,
Silverbolt is on the left and Megatron is on
the right. Uh, he's packaged with his head turned
sideways. Silverbolt is. Which is kinda weird
to me, but yeah, no. Silverbolt just, no. Silverbolt's
gonna go on probably in the back annals of my
shelf and never surface ever again. He probably
won't even see the light of day. No, probably
not. On a more lighter note, we have Beast Wars
Robot Heroes Transmetal Megatron. The only Megatron,
as far as I know, of course, I'm sure you or
Monzo or somebody at the TFWiki can correct me,
this is the only Megatron I've ever seen with
the Golden Disk, as far as a toy. Very, very
cool. I don't like the way that they painted
his arms, legs... and feet because they're all
gold. His toes are actually blue which make no
sense considering the Transmetal Megatron was
all purple. Or a more shinier, shinier purple
than the original Megatron. And I actually prefer
the Transmetal to, or not Transmetal to, but
the Transmetal Tyranno Megatron to the original
Beast Wars Megatron because it's more, like I
said, it's more of a shiny purple than it is
the... the drab color of the original. The only
purple that's on this entire figure is the face
with the red eyes. The rest of him is like black
and brown and red. I think he does have some...
I think his teeth are purple now that I'm looking
at it, which is kind of weird. They did actually
design in his transmetal jets his fan things
that are on his back, which are kind of cool.
Surprisingly, these are the only two Beast Wars
figures that I have for the robot heroes that
have the Predacon symbol somewhere other than
on their ass. Megatron's is on his knee and Silverbolt's
is on his knee. So overall, Megatron rules. Silverbolt
sucks. And that's pretty much it. This is gonna
be like, damn it, Megatron, stop drinking the
energon and stand up fucking correctly, you moron.
Yes, what a drunk Beast Wars Megatron sound like
I have no idea. Oh Boy you so miss that subtle
cue you're supposed to go into it Yeah, I don't
have the energy for tonight So anyway, again,
