LISTENER QUESTIONS
Part one – 00:47:36.000
Hey, I am really enjoying your show. I started listening with the launch of repacked (missed out on fwoosh) mostly because I hear Paul and Craig on some Toku podcasts. Anyway, on to the questions.
I would really like to start acquiring some Gaim lockseeds, and other Toku odds and ends. I keep hearing about Mandrake and AmiAmi, but do you have any advice for a new user? Are there better places to find toku toys at a semi-reasonable price?
Thanks for any help you can give. Love the show, keep it up.

Part two – 01:02:30.010
After listening to episode 9 I was glad to hear Lacrox’s excitement at Michael Bay using his new film to give rebirth to the Dino Rider concept (Can you hear my sarcasm?) But, it did make me start thinking about old franchises I wish would make a resurgence.
What old franchises would you like to see come back in both media and toy form?
My vote is for Computer Warriors to make a come back. (http://www.dreams-and-logic.com/Mattel/Warriors.html) Perhaps with an Xbox that unfolds into a battle station for one faction and a PS3 for the other faction. Maybe an ipod that becomes a cool motorcycle or something.
