Episode 29: Cons, Comics and Customs!

The Vegas Toy SquadCast!

This week VTS welcomes Jason to the table for an episode that touches on quite a few topics for its relatively short running time. The discussion starts off with Patti's feelings about the ending of Game of Thrones (this segment is spoiler-free in case you haven't watched yet), and Rick reveals his psychic powers, having foreseen the new throne-sitter (Protector of the Realm, Lord/Lady of the Seven Kingdoms, King/Queen of the Andals, etc.) way back in Season 1 Episode 1. That's his wild claim, anyway, and I guess we have no reason to doubt him. Then Rob waxes nostalgic (on Empire's birthday) about pre-specialized Star Wars movies, some debate ensues about the new Detective Pokemon flick, Frank questions his commitment to spoiler-free living, and practically everyone legit loses their shizz over the new Stranger Things upside-downy set from LEGO. Next we get down to details with Jason, a Vegas native who does some killer custom work, mostly with Star Wars Black Series figures. Jason talks a bit about his techniques and inspirations, and we learn a new phrase - "boil & pop" - you'll have to tune in to see what that's all about. It's Geek Pride Week, so how else to celebrate but an hour with your favorite nerds - and Jedi Jesus - on this episode of Vegas Toy SquadCast!
