Episode 126 - Goodbye, LEGO Dimensions 10/20/2017

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.

Episode 123 - Let's Get Down To Business 09/08/2017

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.

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!

Episode 117 - No Underscore Episode 117 is back to our tried and true form, as we start off the show with a whole bunch of random banter, about everything from the NBA Draft Lottery, to Mother's Day celebrations, big babies, and the Olive Garden.

Episode 115 - There's a Story to be Told Episode 115 might not be rich with heavy-hitting news like last week, but that doesn't mean it's not rich with fun, excitement and humor! Despite not having much to talk about, there is one huge story to cover. As with all good mysteries, there is a story to be told here!

Episode 114 marks the return for us, and what a week to come back to! And better yet, we invite SCL Matt on to the show, just to try us help answer the burning question ... are they crazy enough to do what we think they might? First, we talked a little LEGO Dimensions, which to be honest, wasn't much. Then we broke down all the latest Skylanders news and discussed the newest content added to the game.

Episode 112 - Wild Amiibo of Hyrule Episode 112 might have been a slow news week, but that didn't stop us from having fun!

Episode 111 - A Magical Engagement 03/16/2017

Episode 111 - A Magical Engagement Episode 111 marked the return of the expert himself, Jason, as he made his way back to the podcast after a long and magical vacation.

After hearing all about the magical engagement, we finally get to the news.

Episode 109 - Switchmas Eve For Episode 109, Jason is MIA so we turn to a returning co-host to help push the show along and make it fun and enjoyable - Valerie Striplin! As per the norm, nothing about the show goes quite as planned, but thankfully Val brings her enthusiasm and bubbly personality, her jokes, and yes, even her grudges, and lays them all out on the line for this episode, which is on Switchmas Eve!

Episode 108 - Pre-Boarding Nachos 02/22/2017

Episode 108 - Pre-Boarding Nachos For Episode 108, we start off by learning a very, very valuable life lesson that everyone can appreciate. Eating a giant plate of nachos only a couple of hours before boarding an airplane is NOT a good idea, in any way, shape, or form. Of course, we only learn this because Jason took a bullet for the entire community, and we couldn’t thank him enough for his sacrifices this past weekend. Even though we didn’t allow for a full week’s news cycle, we still do our best to bring you an episode full of every bit of news we can. We chat about playing LEGO Dimensions in movie theaters in Canada, Skylanders Switch Starter Packs in the wild, and the awesomeness of the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild amiibo. Most importantly, however, we break down and explain the HUGE announcement of the partnership between Toys”R”Us and Lightseekers, bringing the upcoming game to retail store shelves!

Episode 107 - LEGO Batman & Life Choices 02/17/2017

Episode 107 - LEGO Batman & Life Choices For Episode 107, we decided to class the joint up a bit. With the release of the LEGO Batman Story Pack for LEGO Dimensions, it only made sense to invite a special guest on to the show who knows plenty about not just the game, but a variety of other things, such as (but not limited to): The Fast and the Furious, wrangling Kevins, community management, and especially, The Rock. As far as life choices, however, Joey Noelle from Kinda Funny may have a bit of work to do. That’s right, we got the Kinda Funny Community Manager to join us this episode, as Joey Noelle brought her immense love for LEGO Dimensions, as well as plenty of laughs and good conversation, to make for one awesome show. After getting to know Joey better and chatting about a myriad of topics, we eventually covered the news for the toys-to-life community. We chatted about Fire Emblem amiibo, a new Skylanders Imaginators patch released, our Disney Infinity Community Game Nights, and the finally-revealed packaging for Lightseekers!

Episode 106 - Trouble in Skylands 02/10/2017

Episode 106 - Trouble in Skylands For Episode 106, we couldn’t even think about recording until the big meeting in Activision HQ took place, as the fate of the Skylanders franchise hung in the balance. Once the dust settled, however, we jumped right in, bringing not only the Skylanders update, but every other bit of news from the toys-to-life genre, to the show for you, the listening audience. Skylands may be in trouble, but Toys For Games is not! We kick off the show discussing Jason’s globetrotting plans (what’s new), and his birthday, which just so happens to be celebrated by the holiday of love as well. When we get to the news, we start off with a recap of the Disney Infinity community game nights, before discussing the release of LEGO Dimensions Wave 7.5. Then we chat about some amiibo, and invite a couple of special guests on - in the middle of the show, without any warning! From there, we gush about the handcrafted Space Eagle from Beasts of Balance.

Episode 105 - You Say March, I Say May 02/03/2017

Episode 105 - You Say March, I Say May In Episode 105, Jason makes his triumphant return to the show, just in time to help discuss a whole bunch of news from the toys-to-life genre. BUt first, we have to do what we do best - go on tangents! What decent episode of the Toys For Game ‘Cast wouldn’t have any good tangents, right? Oh, and we also have this weird problem trying to figure out how to pronounce this one specific word. Some folks say “March” while others say “May”. It’s really strange. When we start getting into the news (believe me, we do), we start off with a full rundown of the upcoming Disney Infinity Community Game Nights, which hopefully we serve as the last hoorah for the game we all love and adore before the servers official shut down. We then discuss the big Skylanders news in regards to their Netflix show. In LEGO Dimensions, we get hung up on the official reveal of Wave 8. We also chat about some upcoming amiibo and some teases of possible amiibo in the works. Also, despite not being able to talk about almost anything, we say all that can be said about the top secret Lightseekers figures in Jason’s possession. So many secrets! From there, we read the #CommunityQuestion and awarded a listener a cool prize for having the Response of the Week. And finally, we wrapped up the show with some fantastic emails, as always! All this, and more, only in Episode 105! Executive Producer: Jorge Torres!
