    The pattern is broken! The future has been altered! Repent, for the end times are upon us! The sacred numbers have forsaken us!

    Was there ever a teenager demographic with toys?
    I didn't realize that was a thing aside from us nerds that didn't want to give them up.
    What lines were aimed at teenagers specifically and not just collectors in general?

    Personally I gave up toys(because I thought I was supposed to) when I was around 12, and started collecting when I was around 17.

    What I'm waiting to see is if there will be a recording on the day of 2/28 and if it has significant implications for the WTF crew???

    Just listening to the podcast at work and I have to say that I really appreciate the talk of the business side of things. I think its super important for fans of toys to understand the business side of things so that they can understand WHY things are going on. I started listening to this podcast during my HS years and now I'm typing this at a toy design job and I honestly feel I have a head start because of all I've learned through this podcast.

    Titus Welliver was "the man in black" in Lost and the main Irish IRA guy from Sons of Anarchy.

    Cool! Remember that our cut of your earnings still isn't tax deductible.

    Think of a thing ripping a glove off. But the glove is your hand meat.

    You're welcome.

    It's from House of Cards, all the quotes in the intermission are from that character. The show is super bad ass.

    That's rad but it's also awful that we have listeners that started in school and are now working. We are old.

    I like voyager grimlock better mostly because of its T Rex mode and evasion mode prime and Galvatron look really weird to me. But the knight/super robot direction that they took on the dinobots. Really great toy fair discussion guys can't wait to Seth's thoughts.... At some point

    Payment will be made in drinks at a future TFcon. I'm pretty sure that's good enough for the team.
