Episode 212: Rob and Paul Saw Snake Eyes Too!

Yes. It's true. With the digital release of Snake Eyes, the other 2/3rds of GI Joburg have finally seen it and can pass JUDGEMENT. Then we can finally put this film to bed, right? But it's not all film review in Joburg Episode 212, we've got a terrific new playmotion, "Barging In" to discuss, loads of toys and more wishlist items to salivate over.

Snake Eyes review (with potential spoilers): 0:35:00-1:20:51

Episode 211: Wishlist Top 5's

We took to Insta, Twitter, Patreon, Facebook and right here on YouTube to canvass what top 5 items everyone is hunting for this year and boy did we get some terrific response! Varied too! Alongside the pile of Flagg, Terrordrome and Defiant entries, we had Steve Austin, the 12" GI Nurse, unproduced items like a Cobra sub or the Silent Castle... Classified items naturally have their place too and Rob, Paul and Steve round out the ep with the items on their personal watchlist.

There won't be any guesswork come Christmas time, is all I'm saying...

Episode 209: Retro Toys

It feels like there has never been such a widescale, (predominantly) well-presented retro wave engulfing toy properties as there is today. GI Joe gets a share of it, sure. But there are a fair few other properties that do it, dare we say, a little better?

In 209 we crack open an overview of what our favourite retro revival toylines are.

And of course we talk about Masters Of The Universe Revelation. Of course.

Steve was a busy boy this week past, guesting on Talking Joe, Armageekdon and Saints on Cinema. Links below!

The Great GI Joe Comics Debate

*Streamed on YouTube and Facebook 8 July 2021 at 22:00 Eastern Time*

If you were forced to choose between the first 50 issues of the GI Joe A Real American Hero comic series by Marvel, and the 50 issues that followed, which would you say is the superior run of books? In a titanic battle of wits, dazzling argument, and nerdy knowledge, RetroBlasting and Reklaimers Vintage Toys propose the motion:

"GI Joe A Real American Hero #51-101 is a superior run of issues to #1-50"

Analog Toys and GI Joburg will oppose the motion. YOU decide the outcome!

GI Joburg is proud to host this stream as part of Iconicon 2021. For event details and schedule, check https://www.iconicononline.com/
