    Big Mac Attack

    Episode 33 cranks the hyperdrive straight into drama as Chisel and the Millennium Fallen dive headfirst into yet another legendary rant from the one they call the quote-unquote Big Mac — the self-proclaimed king (and chief exec energy) behind the ICC. If you follow the toy-show circuit, you already know the name… and you probably know the vibe that’s coming. The guys break down a fiery tirade about why certain celebrities allegedly can’t appear at his events while somehow popping up at other toy shows without a problem. Is it politics? Ego? Behind-the-scenes contracts? Miscommunication? Chisel and Fallen pick through the claims, the tone, and the fan reactions — all with their usual mix of sarcasm, side-eye, and collector-culture insight. Expect plenty of commentary, strong opinions, and a few “wait… did he really just say that?” moments along the way. But this episode isn’t just about one rant — it’s about pulling back the curtain on the messy, complicated side of fandom collecting: the rivalries, the rumors, the business drama, and the weird power struggles that most fans only hear whispers about. Whether you’re deep in the toy-show scene or just love a good fandom meltdown story, this one promises plenty to chew on. If you like your collector talk spicy, your industry gossip dissected, and your Star Wars-flavored sarcasm dialed up to eleven, Episode 33 — “Big Mac Attack” — is ready to drag you to the dark side… and maybe make you laugh while you’re there

    Ross Con Rebellion

    Episode 30: “Ross Con Rebellion” finds Chizzle and the Millennium Fallen diving headfirst into the strange, frustrating, and sometimes hilarious world of Star Wars figure hunting at discount retailers. From surprise Vintage Collection and Black Series finds to collectors stumbling across figures they never saw at full retail, the hosts break down how Ross Dress for Less and similar stores became an unexpected hotspot for Star Wars collectors — and why the phenomenon has earned the nickname “RossCon.” The conversation pulls back the curtain on the behind-the-scenes workings of retail distribution, explaining how unsold, canceled, or redirected inventory can end up in off-price stores long after collectors gave up hope. Chizzle and Fallen also tackle the topic of retail arbitrage, exploring how some collectors score deals for their own shelves while others flip discounted figures for profit, fueling both excitement and resentment within the hobby. Rounding out the episode is a candid discussion about Hasbro’s handling of The Vintage Collection, the ongoing frustrations with availability at major retailers, and the feeling of “TVC denial” many collectors experience when figures seem to vanish at full price only to resurface later at a discount. With plenty of humor, collector empathy, and a few well-placed rants, “Ross Con Rebellion” captures the chaos of modern Star Wars collecting — where the Force may be strong, but the clearance aisle is stronger.
