    Episode 127 - Breakfast of Champions

    Episode 127 might still be hungover from the Thanksgiving holiday, but we're back with a roundup of all the news from the toys-to-life genre since our last show!    First we start with our normal banter, and do some VERY SPOILERY movie reviews. Eventually we get to the meat and potatoes of the show, starting off with the reincarnation of the Disney Infinity art style. We then cover Skylanders franchise news, before putting an official end to LEGO Dimensions. Finally, we break down the latest in amiibo, including the most anticipated cereal to date!   In the back half of the episode, we read through all the tweets for the #CommunityQuestion, and pick a winner for the #ResponseOfTheWeek giveaway. Finally, we wrap up with emails from the great folks in the community, doing our best to answer all questions thrown our way!   All this and more on Episode 127 of the Toys For Games ‘Cast!   Our Sponsors: SHOW SPONSOR - Devin Laschinski (YouTube: Macing On Gaming) Micheal O'Driscoll (@amiibo_Museum) Evan, TheLoneGoldfish (@TheLoneGoldfish).

    Episode 126 - Goodbye, LEGO Dimensions

    Episode 126 is an episode we never wanted to do, but we've seen coming for quite some time. Unfortunately, the cancellation of LEGO Dimensions is all but a formality now, despite the formal announcement probably never happening.    First we start with our normal banter, to lighten the mood a bit. Then we get right into breaking down the most recent story of LEGO Dimensions being killed off quietly without any fanfare - just as we have been predicting for months now. We wrap up the news with all the upcoming amiibo releases, such as Fire Emblem, Super Mario Odyssey, and Zelda: Breath of the Wild figures!   In the back half of the episode, we read through all the tweets for the #CommunityQuestion, and pick a winner for the #ResponseOfTheWeek giveaway. Finally, we wrap up with emails from the great folks in the community, doing our best to answer all questions thrown our way!   All this and more on Episode 126 of the Toys For Games ‘Cast!   Our Sponsors: SHOW SPONSOR - Devin Laschinski (YouTube: Macing On Gaming) Micheal O'Driscoll (@amiibo_Museum) Evan, TheLoneGoldfish (@TheLoneGoldfish).

    Episode 124 - Got Any of That Stardust?

    Episode 124 is a very special episode, as we toss all of the toys-to-life news aside and get down to the really important issues and topics ... Pokemon! That's right, this show is all about Pokemon this week! Better yet, we are joined by two of the best in the business, Ken and Adam from the Gotta Watch'em All podcast!   For a majority of the episode, we talk about all the highs and lows of Pokemon GO, which is still going strong. We also touch upon Pokemon Rumble U, and Pokken Tournament DX as well.    In the back half of the episode, we read through all the tweets for the #CommunityQuestion, and pick a winner for the #ResponseOfTheWeek giveaway.

    Episode 123 - Let's Get Down To Business

    Episode 123 was a long time coming, but thanks to the summer drought of news and information, as well as impossibly busy schedules, the wait for this episode was much longer than anticipated. Never fear, however, because we're back, and possibly better than before!    After the normal banter that starts every show, we get down to business. First, we talk about - shockingly - Disney Infinity, and more of what could have been. Then we laugh about the unpredictable Skylanders marketing team. We then break down the upcoming release of Wave 9 for LEGO Dimensions, and what that means for the franchise. And finally, we talk about the news regarding amiibo, including the newly announce Shovel Knight amiibo!   In the back half of the episode, we read through all the tweets for the #CommunityQuestion, and pick a winner for the #ResponseOfTheWeek giveaway. Finally, we wrap up with emails from the great folks in the community, doing our best to answer all questions thrown our way!   All this and more on Episode 123 of the Toys For Games ‘Cast!   Our Sponsors: SHOW SPONSOR - Devin Laschinski (YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Dlasch2) Micheal O'Driscoll (@amiibo_Museum) Evan, TheLoneGoldfish (@TheLoneGoldfish).

    Episode 122 - #ReleaseTheJellyfish

    Episode 122 is our first show since the big amiibo release and Beasts of Balance Kickstarter launch, but all we really want to talk about tonight is Jason's trip to Southern California for the D23 Expo and Disneyland vacation!    First, Jason breaks down the highs and lows of his travel, his time at the parks, and the insanity that was the D23 Expo. When we get down to the news of the industry, we skip over Skylanders and LEGO Dimensions, as neither franchise has anything to report on. We jump over to amiibo, and break down the recent release wave of figures. Then we break down the newest tidbits from Lightseekers. And finally, we break down the incredible Beasts of Balance Kickstarter campaign, which they are totally crushing, and we plead ... #ReleaseTheJellyfish!   In the back half of the episode, we read through all the tweets for the #CommunityQuestion, and pick a winner for the #ResponseOfTheWeek giveaway. Finally, we wrap up with emails from the great folks in the community, doing our best to answer all questions thrown our way!   All this and more on Episode 122 of the Toys For Games ‘Cast!
