We don't wanna grow up, but we already did. Paul and Bill discuss the week's action figure news, plus what it was like growing up as Toys “R” Us kids, compared to juggling work, life, and collecting as a grown-ass adult. New episodes every Wednesday.

James Gunn gives the Justice League the boot, but his DC reboot finds the boot on the other foot. Is Superman fighting for truth — the American way — through litigation? Plus, speaking of toy scales — Is this half scale Power Ranger actually half scale or is this more of that new math? And Hasbro remasters the Power Rangers starting with Blue, but will fans prefer the original formula? The ability to speak does not make you intelligent. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

You’ve heard of elf on the shelf, but what about a Santa squad mint on card? Fresh Monkey Fiction saves Christmas by delivering their Naughty or Nice action figures in time for the big day. Plus, McFarlane dips his toe in mutagen as we uncover news about Todd making Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys. And, on the twelfth day of Christmas, NECA gave to me… a digital download! At least it wasn’t something from the Auto T Vault. Only one thing in the world could’ve dragged me away from the soft glow of electric sex gleaming in the window. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Hasbro is making their list and checking it twice. Could the HasLab Ghostbusters Proton Pack be closer than we thought? Plus, it’s feast or famine when you dine on turtle soup. Adult collectors are living in the golden age of Ninja Turtles, but won’t somebody please think of the children? And, “Ho, ho, ho, pimp!” Fresh Monkey Fiction’s elves work overtime to deliver the Naughty or Nice collection ahead of seasonal irrelevancy. Why worry? Each of us is wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Trouble in the toy aisle? With prices skyrocketing and products starting to pile up ahead of deep discounts, what will the action figure landscape look like as we enter the new year? Plus, a year without Santa Claus? Fresh Monkey Fiction delivers coal to our stockings as shipping delays mean Santa may miss Christmas this year. And, it’ll take a lot more than a bullet to the brain, lungs, heart, back, and balls to kill Michael Scarn. Super7 teases The Office, but are fans quiet quitting this franchise? After three years of writing, one year of shooting, four years of re-shooting and two years of editing, I have finally completed my movie, it’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Big screen Beast Wars. Optimus Primal makes his theatrical debut and we break down the first trailer for Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. Plus, the Guardians of the Galaxy Christmas special stuffed our stockings, but let’s hope they remembered the gift receipt. And, Indiana Jones is back in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. Will this fifth installment provide closure for our aging hero or is Disney keeping him fresh inside that nuke-proof fridge? What a fitting end to your life’s pursuits. You’re about to become a permanent addition to this archaeological find. Who knows? In a thousand years, even you may be worth something. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

As online deals overtake in-person shopping, have we forgotten the true meaning behind Black Friday? Spending cash we don’t have on things we don’t want. Plus, a-ten-shun! Drop and give me 20, expletive. We unbox Hasbro’s G.I. Classified Sergeant Slaughter action figure. And, we say “see-BYE-ya!,” as one of our childhood heroes enters the big Morphin’ Grid in the sky. Congratulations, Power Rangers. Victory is yours. You have gone far beyond the call of duty and saved your world from a terrible fate. The world is very lucky to have you, and so am I.

The penultimate episode of Andor has us asking what happened to all the squiggles? And why doesn’t the Empire employ more aliens? Plus, NECA’s AutoT figures pop up in Walmart stores. No, like the actual physical figures. How did that get there? And, Super7 shows off more Ninja Turtles and Power Rangers boxed samples at Collector Con, but are these toys meant to be opened? My powers are almost gone. It's what my dreams have been telling me. It's what I've been feeling inside. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Ah! After what seemed like 10,000 years, there’s finally pre-orders! It’s Morphin’ Time for Mezco, but will their One:12 Collective Power Rangers stand helmet and shoulders above the competition? Plus, GameStop’s clearance extravaganza rolls on with even more new items mysteriously appearing in stores. And, the cartoon that defined a generation loses its voice as we say our goodbyes to Kevin Conroy. I Am Vengeance. I Am The Night. I Am Batman! It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast.

Can the Mattel Creations Eternia playset ride Moaty’s momentum past the finish line and unlock the final stretch goal or will Keclar become the most exclusive He-Man action figure this side of the bread aisle? Plus, has Andor changed the Star Wars universe forever? It turns out the Empire is not as warm and cuddly as we once thought. And, is it worth renewing our Hasbro Pulse Premium membership? We got our exclusive ectoplasm, what more do we want? Human sacrifice. Dogs and cats living together. Mass hysteria. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast!

Playing with yourself has never been so much fun! Hasbro makes our toy dreams come true as our Selfie Series action figures arrive ahead of schedule. Plus, is Andor compelling television because it’s set in the Star Wars universe or in spite of its connection to the Force? And, Habsro rolls for the fences with their new Dungeons and Dragons action figures, including transforming dice! Snake Eyes! Spies… Saboteurs…Assassins. We’ve all done terrible things on behalf of the Rebellion. It’s The Reluctant Adult Podcast!
