Today on the Toy Power Podcast, we hit up some news headlines from all across the pop-culture sphere. Learn the latest on the #Disney / #20thCenturyFox merger, The #4Horsemen run their own Con, #Hasbro show us more #StarWars and #Marvel figures and we check out our new favourite doco, The Powers of Greyskull. We then look back at the first half of 2018 and those toys that are in contention for our Best of 2018 awards with a whole bunch of fan-feedback to boot! We also look at the business side of things and study the financial statements from some of the big players in a post TRU market. If numbers aren’t your thing, fear not – Number Cruncher Trent is in his element! While unplanned we spin out into a discussion on Funko, and look at how the polarizing brand came to own a curious slice of the toy markets. As if that’s not enough, we somehow manage to invent a new social media platform along the way – prepare to enter Intergram!
