Ep 066 – 10th March 2015: Tickles my nostalgia bone

The Repacked Podcast is a weekly podcast about Toys, Action Figures, Dolls, Brick-toys and all that plastic crack that we, your hosts, spend waaaay too much of our hard earned cash on.

This week, I learnt what the Defenders of the Earth were and was introduced to that amazing theme song from the 80’s… So yes- we’ve got great outtakes at the end of the show – including my introduction to the Defenders themesong, and also that hilarious subbed version of the Van Damme Guile speech from the 90’s Street Fighter movie. Listen on folks for fun is abound in this latest EPISODE SIXTY SIX (66) of the REPACKED PODCAST!

LISTENER QUESTIONS
From: King (updatedude)

Dear Repacked,
My search for a reasonably priced Kachidoki Figuarts has thus far been fruitless. Likewise, I’d like to get the Psycho Pass Dominator replica, but I just can’t pull the trigger due to the cost.
Are there any figures that you currently want, but are juuuuust a little too expensive for you to justify getting?
Articuladerci.

Hey guys!

Are there any vintage (80’s and older) action figures/toys you collect? Recently I’ve actively been looking for vintage Star Wars. I’ll also pick up Super Powers, Secret Wars, Rambo, and a few others if I happen to find them at Thrift shops. etc…

Excluding Transformers, what repaint of an already released toy are you surprised didn’t happen or hasn’t happened yet?
I’m surprised Monster High didn’t release a doll of Whisp from the 13 Wishes movie since she would have been essentially a dark recolor of Gigi Grant whose doll came out for that movie.
