Next week, the Earth Station One crew is back with a great round table discussion on Movies That Surpassed Their Source Material. It’s sure to be a lively discussion. Also, ESO welcomes Lance Roger Axt, Elaine Lee, and Bill (Bob The Builder) Dufris to the station to talk about their
A Skype panel featuring the lovely and talented Tara Strong at the Knoxville Comic & Anime show on June 9th. Panel was hosted by Michael Faber of the Earth Station One podcast. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0taNpnSDnc&w=560&h=315]
Welcome to Phantom Who, a new feature designed to go along with the Earth Station Who podcast, which I co-host. There I am known as “Dave” because “Phantom Troublemaker” takes up too much room on the stationary. Every other week there will be a new podcast discussing all things Doctor
Next week, the Earth Station One crew rolls a hard six as they join a rag-tag fugitive fleet fleeing Cylon tyranny, search for a shining beacon known as Earth, and try to figure out just exactly if the Cylons really had a plan. ESO wants to hear from all you
I thought I’d wrap up this week’s Masters of the Universe Classics toy reviews with a guy that fits a little more into the science fiction category that Earth Station One tends to favor. You might remember a character named Flipshot from the New Adventures of He-Man cartoon. Or you
While I know all of the major players on Eternia, I am not overly versed in all of the ancillary characters, style guide references and mini-comic versions. I think this variation of Teela came from the mini-comics. The biography on the back of the package certainly doesn’t help to explain
Leech was always my favorite of the original Masters of the Universe toys. I didn’t have a lot, but Hordak’s power-sucking minion was in my collection. Even a as kid I was not a big fan of action features; as they almost always resulted in figures that were less poseable
Next week, the Earth Station One crew once again takes a timey-whimey ride in the TARDIS for a discussion on our favorite, and least favorite, Doctor Who companions. Sound off, Whovians. ESO wants to hear from you. Who are your favorite and least favorite companions, and why? Let us know
I can’t really pick a favorite Doctor Who monster, but I tend strongly towards the Cybermen. Well, the old Cybermen. I never totally bought into the new Cybus Industries models. I don’t hate them and I don’t even think they’re a bad redesign, they just don’t seem quite as creepy
I am a big-time build-a-figure chump. If there is an item that I think I need, then I am going to buy any number of figures that I don’t in order to have it. Sometimes I can unload the extraneous toys on eBay, sometimes I just end up with extra
“Fezzes Are Cool Version” isn’t actually the name of this figure, but it should be. This is now the crown jewel of my toy collection. The fact that I own a toy of the Doctor wearing a fez is so utterly incomprehensible and wonderful that I will give the decision
On the one hand it is ridiculous that it has taken this long for Mattel to get around to making an action figure of the second-most-important living character in the Batman mythos. On the other hand, Mattel just released a figure of a frigging butler. Looking at it from that
