We’re turning five this week! Five years to the day ago, the Crossrip became a podcast! Yay us! To celebrate, we’re wrapping up Ghostbusters Day and all that was revealed then having a few of our favorite clip moments from the past five years. First up, Ghostbusters Day was a little delayed due to things happening around the world and was celebrated last week. The subdued marketing day gave us a few product announcements like Campfire Marshmallows bringing Stay Puft brand to shelves next year and LEGO Unboxed getting a Ghostbusters makeover. But the big news was a behind the scenes featurette for Ghostbusters Afterlife that showed at drive-in theaters. Troy and Chris dissect as much as possible to glean from what was shown. Then in the second half of the show, our favorite moments: meeting new friends, talking to icons, even crossing the border for toys, all of that and more on a jam-packed show!
#621 - "Eaglemoss Builders Club Part 4" - June 8, 2020
It’s certainly a different kind of Ghostbusters Day this year, but we’re completely okay with the marketing hype being postponed until a later date. In the meantime, we’re building stages 9 and 10 of our Eaglemoss Hero Collector Ecto-1 subscription set. This week we’re working on carburetors and air filters and there’s a few tricky stages ahead. And while we build, we’re talking about Ghostbusters Day’s postponement, the potential of Josh Gad’s “Reunited Apart” coming at a to-be-determined date, the recent discovery that a new trailer and a potential Fathom exclusive might be on the horizon, and some incredible print offerings from the Containment Unit group out of San Diego.
