After going all weekend without, I was thinking about checking in to an addiction clinic. But, alas, Scaleface provided me my fix with another awesome Retro Robot Radio podcast. This one is cool for the discussion on disappeared products! Well worth it!

Once again Scaleface has produced another fantastic Retro Robot Radio podcast. It's almost as good as the last Monster Jam at the Metrodome on Saturday.
Be sure to comment in his thread. (Space Academy looks familiar. I can't tell if it's the freaky robot from that 1960s movie I'm forgetting [Forbidden Planet, maybe?] or just the general look of the set from Lost in Space, but I'm pretty sure I had nightmares of this as a kid.)

I don't know what I'd do without Scaleface and his wonderful Retro Robot Radio podcast.
Be sure to comment in his thread. (At first I was like, what does Gilligan's Island have to do with retro robots? Then I remembered who, or rather what, the Globe Trotters played. Classic TV movie! Yes, we used to think this was good entertainment. After all, we had just invented fire...)

I apologize for missing last weekend's Retro Robot Radio podcast update to this news thread. I dislocated my shoulder skiing. (Most pain in my life. X-rays showed the shoulder somewhere around 4 inches out of socket. I do not recommend doing this, no matter how fun Mel Gibson makes it look. Oh, and I'm fine.) This is especially a bummer as the one last week included screenshots from one of my favorite movies! Here are the podcasts from the last two weeks:
Woot! The Black Hole! Woot!
Be sure to comment in his thread. Did I mention The Black Hole? That's V.I.N.CENT. (Vital Information Necessary CENTralized) on the left and B.O.B. (BiO-sanitation Battalion) on the right. Yeah, I'm full of useless info like that. I hope Scaleface uses S.T.A.R. (Special Troops Armed Regiment) and the reddish Androids or Maximillian (a truly evil looking monster robot) in a future podcast.

Where are the pitchforks? Where're the torches? Scaleface skipped a week and that is unacceptable! He better make up for it with a fantawstic Retro Robot Radio podcast. 
Be sure to comment in his thread. And I was just informed by that imaginary voice in my head that the use of Robot Wars forgives any missing of a week of news. Nice one! Also, does anyone have a cure for that voice in my head? The last time I brought it up to someone, they talked about padded rooms...

So, I know Toy Fair is going on, but there's still plenty of 3rd Party news. Scaleface is crawling around inside my mind in picking his screen capture and has another edition of the Retro Robot Radio podcast.
Be sure to comment in his thread. And, like I said, sometimes it seems like you are crawling around in my head, Scaleface. The Mighty Orbots was one of my favorite shows on Saturday mornings when I was a kid. (Just stay out of that dark corner over there. You won't like what you find...)

Is it just me, or does there seem to be a slight lull in the 3P scene? Let's find out as Scaleface has another edition of the Retro Robot Radio podcast.
Be sure to comment in his thread. Are we post Chinese New Year lull? Are we waiting for the next movie? Have I just had too much to drink? The world may never know. (BTW, Props on Gaiking!!)

After thinking there was somthing of a lull in the 3P scene, Scaleface sets me straight in another edition of the Retro Robot Radio podcast.
Be sure to comment in his thread. I want to thank Scaleface as these podcasts are something helping me with the doldrums of what seems like the winter that will not end.

Be sure to comment in his thread.
(I wish I had taken the time yesterday to Rick Roll some of you. Ah, well, April Fool's Day will come around again next year.)

Scaleface is back at it this week with a another edition of the Retro Robot Radio podcast.
Be sure to comment in his thread. I remember Rom, the Space Knight. But that's mostly because I'm going back and rereading early X-Men and Spider-Man comics.

Scaleface thinks he can take Easter weekend off. I demand satisfaction or my money back! But then he had to go and use the Energizer Bunny in his next edition of the Retro Robot Radio podcast. So, I think I can forgive him. I believe he is giving away free subscriptions to those who are unsatisfied...
Be sure to comment in his thread. Look out for some Easter eggs in the video. (I haven't watched it yet. You have Easter eggs in there, right? I'd hate to have egg on my face...)

So I see new threads have been started with news of a Voyager class Cyclonus by KFC and a Perfect Effect Scorponok over on TFW.
As usual there are more photos which are hosted by blocked websites so no fun pics for me!
I hope when Daim or A-Gen post here we get some 'proper' photo hosting and not just the lazy 'copy & paste' technique!

Scaleface is back in the next edition of the Retro Robot Radio podcast.
Be sure to comment in his thread. I remember Mantech. For some reason it makes me nostalgic for Saturday Morning Cartoons. Who knew marketing could influence me 30 years later...
