Quotes (from this video)
- We have too many games. We have been trying to really curb that stuff. We have far more than we're going to do all the time.
- There's too many too many games.
- It's funny. It's probably not that long ago that they switched to making stuff in a uh Australia. Um, Arizona. They were making it in uh Canada, I think in BC.
- Adam showed his method for doing the dark the black edges on his uh minis.
- I'm not sure that, you know, a lot of these minis, too many. Uh, the amount of Spider-Man, it's crazy.
- The um arches would be cool.
- I don't like that. I'm frustrated that there's um not the coverage protection of those that there used to be.
- It's expensive. And I mean, what more does the game offer?
- It's truly a bummer.
- The goal was to not walk around the park, but we tked all the way around through Frontier Land and all that. Get into the thing. And we get there and it's a 50-minute wait. So, we're like, 'Well, we're here. Let's do it again.'
- And then we decide to go at the end of the night before we leave. We'll go. We'll ride this one more time and then we'll go. This is the third time we get there. It's empty. We walk all the way through the queue, all the way. No stops. Get right to the orientation thing and starts up.
- And I think it's hurting the the area.
- It was fun. But it turns out we were the last of the day. And they didn't explain to us what we were supposed to do. Like you you're supposed to go pick what you want before you go in.
- It's funny because I had recently looked to see if you could stream it anywhere. Just hoping I could see some of the stuff I had never seen.
- But Dave was watching him too and he was I'm telling him I was exciting. I hadn't seen any of the cinematics and I hadn't seen that much of the Harold Ramos. He goes, 'Well, I'm just watch I'm watching the Harold Ramis.' I'm like, 'Yeah, that's what I'm watching.'
- It's a little frustrating.
- But who knows? Maybe I'm just being a goofball.
- It's crazy how wet the black paint gets. Like it just keeps pulling in moisture, but the gray and the white are not.

Quotes (from this video)
- You like a game, you better buy it because it might not be available soon.
- This is the reason I went all in on the um Marvel United uh multiverse because I wanted this mini and it was like I don't remember what it was in, but I'm like, "I'm getting it."
- It's a weird one and it's I think it's just you can't you got to really read it carefully.
- My problem is is what happens is you get stuff looking like they have a 5:00 shadow.
- The contrast medium helps to lessen the intensity of the color.
- The way contrast paints and speed paints are designed to be done is you just paint them over a bright undercoating.
- I really like this paint. I was disappointed initially until I realized you need to use the contrast medium to lessen the intensity of the color.
- It makes the game much more exciting and immersive.
- The eye dropper bottles are the best and they have problems because they get clogged up and you if you're not careful, you make a giant mess.

Quotes (from this video)
- CMON, cool mini or not, and the 10 outstanding CMON campaigns.
- But there are still 10 outstanding crowdfunding campaigns, which is not necessarily the end of the world.
- The dragon's cool. The dragon's cool. That's the part I probably want most out of all of this.
- It's a game system I've played out.
- This kind of game system has been done by Clank at this point better.
- I have so many big box games that don't don't always get tabled that honestly, I even look at this and I just think, as much as I love the system, I don't play it a ton.

Quotes (from this video)
- If we transform what's happening into a Q&A, maybe we this would be be what's happening.
- Halfway through, if you guys don't entertain me enough, I will pull out a game and start playing. That's That's the threat.
- I'll never understand it.
- I understand it. I'm just kidding.
- Please don't don't explain it to me.
- Looks toxic.
- Some of the stuff they put out definitely looks like nuclear runoff.
- Okay, everybody. What's going on?
- I hope you're having a fantastic Monday so far, folks.
- Good morning, good afternoon to some of you.
- I guess some of you are in places where it is already afternoon.
- What is that about?
- Question colon and then something that will help me spot your questions.
- I'm also going to make this a little bit bigger here so I can see.
- Volume is okay. You guys can see me
- The area of the hobby I feel is being squeezed out is actually the middle. Those 45 minute to an hour and 15 minute family weight games are the ones that I think have a much harder time making a splash because they require a lot of production.
- I can't review a prototype. So, no, I don't have the time.
- It's not normally the math I'm concerned about because the the the arithmetic is not that complicated. I think it is the a a heavy rules dense euro game tends to be harder to reconstitute the abstractness into concrete thoughts.
- I'm looking to buy an unmatched game, but I don't have much funds to buy multiples. If I had to invest in just one, which one would you recommend?
- Donkey juice. You can really make a meal out of those two words. That's a big part of it.
- It's part of the collective unconscious, says Mike Delisio.

Quotes (from this video)
- Dump the Skunk, which is just essentially a straight reprint of RER Kinesia's Llama.
- It just left me wanting more. It has all the things that I enjoy in Marvel United, but with the DC characters, and they did go very thematic with it and made some great choices when it comes to equipment and how certain things interact.
- Vivo is an incredibly clever little trick taker that otherwise was not generally available for folks and AllPlay really knocked it out of the park.
- I think what they did with Quax was wonderful and if you still haven't checked it out, please do.
- The reprint of Ethnos came with a mixed reaction, one that I'm still fascinated by because in the hobby, we get used to a lot of symbology...
- Kitio's Botswana in the new version from 25th Century is just a chef's kiss perfect package.
- Unmatched just continues to knock it out of the park.
- 20 Strong Tangle Woods is absolutely remarkable.
- Magical Athlete deserves all of it because the dedication that CMYK put to making this happen, the personality in the game, the personality in the characters, the just silly, ridiculous fun around the table.
- No game this year has motivated me to do a video where I do a bunch of voices for characters except for Magical Athlete.
