  1. Ahh, the debate that won’t die, East vs. West toys. I think we all respect the quality of the figures based on these Japanese live action shows, however many like Miguel have no connection to the property. The primary drive for toy collecting is nostalgia. With some of these properties, listeners can’t even identify the character let alone have a warm spot in their heart for them. So maybe instead of going down the road of segregation, you should go down the road of inclusion. Way back, Craig referred listeners to another Podcast where these properties were explained. Maybe it’s time for an update. Fwooshcast special: getting to know your toys across the pond. Go over when the properties aired, what makes them good, and where and how the uninitiated can get started.
