This is the first episode of the brand new Zone 4 spinoff show, HALL OF TOYS!

The logo above is the temporary logo for the show. :)

Host Brant and Chris talk about the latest and upcoming toys, video games, board games and collectibles. They also pick a main topic to discuss each time, and will sometimes be joined by guests.

Here's the format for this episode:

INTRO: The guys tell you what the show is all about.

TOY TALK: They then discuss some recently released and upcoming action figures, statues, and other collectible items.

MAIN TOPIC: This week the topic is on toys: Are Toys Just for Kids Anymore?

GAMING GAB: The guys discuss Bioshock Infinite and Injustice: Gods Among Us.

TABLE TOP TALK: Then they discuss some board game news.

AND... ACTION FIGURE!: Each episode they will each select a figure or set to highlight. This week it's the Iron Man Mark IV Set 2 for Chris, the G.I. Joe: Retaliation Firefly figure for Brant.

CLOSING UP SHOP: And then they bring the show to a close.

No, wrestling fans, this is not about CM Punk, Chris Jericho, Bret Hart or anyone else in the world of wrestling.

The crew returns down a man as Gordon is tumbling through space somewhere on some grand adventure. The rest of the crew covers some headlines, mostly relating to comic films, and Brant finally gives his thoughts on The Dark Knight Rises.

Then they discuss the best comic franchise in the world. Superman? Batman? Spider-Man? Listen to hear what they think.

The new keyword for the New Listener Drive is given. For those keeping score, this is word 2 of this phrase.

Of course, more Facebook shout-outs, plugs and more as we count down to 200!

And one more announcement for the upcoming LIVE 200th episode on January 11th!

Brant, Cary and Chuck K. go it with three after some crossed wires with our fourth, and try to pull out a show with no topic, no direction, and no opening! (Well, an opening was added in through the magic of editing). We talk Green Lantern, Jonah Hex, Walking Dead, Distribution and much more

Brant, John, Chuck M. and Cary get together at literally the last minute to talk about various comic and film headlines and stories, overrated comic book characters (it gets brutal), moving and getting rid of comics, and getting books signed and stuff. Lots of ground covered in a short time, so enjoy and give us your thoughts!
