THE MODERN WAY XIII-

Yeah, we had to look-up some of these obscure book and comic figures too!

Don't worry though, they are all collated here in this enhanced podcast so you can watch along.

This edition of The Modern Way celebrates the crossover of modern Star  Wars toys and literature.

The boys get together to count down a top ten of figures inspired by the  books and comics from the Star Wars galaxy, including a nostalgic look  back at the Shadows of the Empire line from the 90s.

From Mouse  and Princess Leia in her areobics wear, to the heavy metal stylings of  Nom Anor, it's a fun look at some of the more obscure toys from the  modern era.  Join in and see exactly which figures got the team all excited and  straight onto eBay.

The enhanced version of the 13th episode of our modern review that gives you a proper look at all the products discussed with high res images, footage and lots of other good stuff.

Hover Pram. That's the word of the month on this Modern Way. 

Stuart,  Craig, Mark and Dan are joined by founding Generation Skywalker member  Grant Criddle, as he is welcomed back to hosting duties.

It's  a Mandalorian and Phantom Menace feast this month, as the team look at  the latest update on the Haslab Razor Crest, the Mandalorian Retro  Collection line and many other announcements.

The  team also celebrate The Phantom Menace trailer – released 22 years ago  this month – with a trip down memory lane to discuss all the hype, toys  and merchandise from around the release of Episode One.

See all the latest items as we discuss them in this enhanced version of our modern roundtable.

In  an episode so full of new releases, this visual video will help you  better understand the distinction between your Carbonised Caras and your  Credit Collection ones.

It's the podcast your Amazon Echo Show was made for.

The  constant announcement of modern collectibles over the last couple of  months has made for another show, jam packed with all the latest toy  news.

And  it's all here, including the the amazing Haslab Razor Crest, the latest  Vintage Collection and Black Series releases, Hot Toys, Funko Pops,  Force FX Lightsabers, Polaroid cameras and the Regal Robot Rancor  statue. 

With  certain items in hand, the team also review the Lego Cantina, Black  Series Heroes of Endor set, Black Series Armorer and the latest Wampa  release.

Dan takes us through his love of Steel Books, in reference to his blog post here and the boys also choose their favourite Chewbacca action figures through the ages.

Our enhanced podcasts really come into their own with a show like this. 

In  an episode where we cover tonnes of new and freshly announced items,  it's nice to see exactly what are discussing – that's why we go to the  effort of crafting these visual versions. 

It's  packed full of images, stills and little touches you don't get on the  audio version, so If you've not experienced one of our YouTube   extravaganzas before, this is a great one to start with.

The Modern Way is back with an  announcement-heavy show as Stuart, Craig, Mark and Dan dissect all the  latest news from the world of modern collecting.

Is the Tantive IV playset is better than the Freezing Chamber set? Have a listen and find out. 

The Mission Fleet toys have just hit UK shelves and we give our full and frank opinions on the range.  

Plus  we discuss all the latest Black Series, Vintage Collection, Funko Pop  and Hot Toys news, as well as taking a look at the new Lego Mos Eisley  Cantina, which has got the team frothing at the mouth. In a good way.

If our 14th podcast was a feast for the ears, this enhanced version is a feast for your ears and your eyes. 

Lots of pictures, lots of video clips and lots of love have gone into its creation. 

Please enjoy.

There were some real 'hits' and 'misses' discussed in this month's modern roundtable.

Though  one thing that's unanimously loved is Geeki Tiki, as Craig takes us  through the history of tiki and how we ended up with Star Wars themed  tiki mugs and other apparel. It's loved so much there's even a live  purchase during the topic.

Though the love doesn't quite extend to the new Vintage Collection Carbon Freezing Chamber, which leaves everyone cold!

We  also take a look at the Hyper Real figures and Han Bespin sculpts  through the years, as well as discussing the new announcements for Black  Series, Vintage Collection, Galaxy's Edge-inspired toys and the  beautiful Hot Wheels Dagobah X-Wing. 

The third modern collecting roundtable, jam-packed with imagery and video clips to bring the content to life.

Probots,  the new Black Series packaging and helmet range, all the latest  releases, plus a look at the team's picks for the best ever Leia figure –  it's all here.

Well, it's all on YouTube.

The  third edition of 'The Modern Way' sees the team settle down to discuss  the new packaging for the Black Series 6" line, while Mark's latest  purchase of a Black Series Boba Fett helmet sparks a look at the entire  helmet range.

They also close out the Probe Droid discussion which has been rolling ever since we started our modern roundtable.

Stuart  is also joined by Christopher Cooke to look at The Vintage Collection  petition which is gathering pace, check out the link here to find out more.
 

As  well as all this, the team look at all the new announcements since the  last show,  and also delve into the history of Princess Leia Organa  figures as they all pick their favourite adaptations of her in her white  gown.

All  the great audio of show 008 peppered with lots of high quality imagery  to save you having to go and Google pics of the new Teebo.

From Mark Boudreaux's back catalogue to all the upcoming figure releases, plus our latest purchases, Grevious memes and more. 

If we talk about it, we show it.

In this month's episode, the boys give some love to some of the toys Mark Boudreaux designed as he announces his retirement.
 

New  York Toy Fair seems a lifetime ago, but we check out the announcements  from there, as well as further reveals from Hasbro. Mark gives his  honest opinion on the Carbonized Black Series Fett on the way – not sure  he'll be investing in that one.
 

As  well as all this, we take a look at the second wave in the Retro line  and explore the best General Grievous figures released of the cyborg so  far.

In  first of our monthly Modern Roundtable shows, Daniel Burgess joins  Simon, Mark, Craig and Stuart to chat about the sad end to the 5 p.o.a.  line, where's best to purchase modern items in the UK, and the new  Galaxy of Adventures 5" line, before looking at a selection of new and  recently announced Mandalorian items.

Will  Dan allow his child to open some modern figures? Will Mark allow  himself to like anything modern? Will Stuart weaken and buy a Hot Toys  figure? Listen in as the team all deal with their own modern issues.
