Marvel Legends Collectors Crash Out Over Target Exclusive Action Figures Jul 22, 2025

Show notes

Marvel Legends collectors are collectively crashing out over this new Target exclusive. Turns out the real "Endgame" was surviving retail. This GamerVerse two‑pack has us deep in conspiracy mode: can jet fuel melt Adamantium, and where the hell was Wolverine on 9/11? If Hasbro’s Real Ghostbusters exclusive sparked your Ecto Glow addiction, this toy maker just broke the containment unit wide open. It's The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Casting Call for Power Rangers, HasLab Snow Cat Hits an Icey Patch and Playmates Crawls Back From Its Shell Shock Jul 15, 2025

Show notes

The Power Rangers are back and this time, it’s your turn to morph. Forget teenagers with attitude, Disney’s casting for middle-aged and mediocre. Plus, Holey shit! New in-box photos of Playmates’ TMNT 1984 Remastered 6-pack have leaked and trypophobiacs are breathing a sigh of relief. And Todd McFarlane’s dogs are barking! For a guy with a foot fetish so strong it would make Quentin Tarantino blush, McFarlane Toys really fumbled the basic shape of a dog. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Marvel Legends Guess Who? Which Hollywood Starlet Inspired Hasbro's Savage Land Rogue Action Figure? Jul 07, 2025

Show notes

Hasbro’s new Savage Land Marvel Legends Rogue is oddly familiar. Collectors say the sculpt looks less “X-Men” and more “red carpet,” sparking debate over which celebrity just accidentally became an X-Man. Plus, Snow Joe! Hasbro’s hoping their frosty new HasLab, the G.I. Joe Snow Cat, doesn’t put their crowdfunding hot streak on ice. And Jazwares is turning Comic-Con upside down with their exclusive 6-inch Demogorgon action figure from the new Stranger Things line. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Hunting for a Rare 1984 Star Wars Scout Walker Swing Set at an Estate Sale! Jun 30, 2025

Show notes

Mattel’s Jurassic World exclusive is already feeling the effects of inflation. And this time, it’s not about the price! Plus, The Simpsons just killed off Marge. That’s horrible! Especially since I had Maggie in the death pool. Tiny Chef canceled and you won’t believe the words that came out of that tiny mouth of his. Also, the police officer vanishes from Hasbro’s G.I. Joe Classified lineup. Let’s see how they like it. And Mattel seems hell-bent on proving fans can see John Cena… by releasing every imaginable version of him as an action figure.

Drunk History of McFarlane Toys' JAWS 50th Anniversary Movie Maniacs Collectible Jun 23, 2025

Show notes

Sun’s out, funds out! TMNT collectors hoping to snag NECA’S SDCC exclusive get burned by extra charges. ROSS Dress for Less wears out its welcome with collectors by charging more than retail for toys we didn’t want in the first place. Super7 repaints G.I. Joes in Tiger Force camo, but they still can’t hide from the clearance aisle. Mattel is teaming up with OpenAI to bring Artificial Intelligence to kids’ toys. Proving once and for all that no one at Mattel has seen Small Soldiers. Long Furby culture is being appropriated for mass consumption and I still can’t buy a Room Guardian at Target. JAKKS helps Simpsons fans scratch that figure itch with new soft and squishy Itchy & Scratchy figures. Not that kind of ‘Squishy’.

Hasbro Makes Ghostbusters Day Lit, Teasing Unproduced Real Ghostbusters Toys Jun 09, 2025

Show notes

Hasbro lit up Ghostbusters Day with a tease of more Ecto Glow Ghostbusters, proving once again that when it comes to nostalgia, Hasbro ain’t afraid of no fan service. Plus, AMC is tempting moviegoers with a 17-inch Galactus popcorn bucket. Because if you’re lining up for Fantastic Four, that might be the only head you’re getting. And NECA’s Comic-Con exclusive has the Turtles ready to hang 10. But at this point, maybe it’s time to just hang it up. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

This Fantastic Four Marvel Legends Set Will Cost You… Everything Jun 02, 2025

Show notes

Hasbro’s new Fantastic Four Marvel Legends wants you to stretch your imagination far enough to believe this Mr. Fantastic toy is supposed to look like Pedro Pascal. Plus, if bathing with a space alien isn’t your cup of E.T., then maybe Sydney Sweeney can convince you to grab your rubber ducky and take the plunge. And, Funko unveils a new Ghostbusters 2 Pop! assortment, but will we ever get to splash mommy? It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Lilo and Ditch! Disney is Never Beating Those Allegations After Changing Live Action Lilo & Stitch Ending May 26, 2025

Show notes

You thought the AMC Dune bucket was crazy? Wait until you see what Jurassic World cooked up for their popcorn. Plus, Disney just changed the ending to their live-action Lilo & Stitch—and yep, we’re definitely in the bad place. And E.T. wants to phone home? Nah, he wants to chill in your tub. Lush just made it happen. To alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.
