I agree it was quite the phenomenon, the perfect blend of cute collectability and unknown quantities. Funny thing as the generation who grew up with these, I did not see their appeal or rather did not comprehend the obsession and honestly I still do not. I scarcely remember anyone around me going bonkers when they were a thing. Quote

I scarcely remember anyone around me going bonkers when they were a thing. There was some good information about the psychology of a bubble and addiction as well as the relationship between the brand Ty and the secondary market. As someone who was a BB reseller it was interesting to me. They reviewed how BBs were distributed regionally across the USA which made it impossible to obtain them all locally. Imagine if LEGO distributed a series of CMF by region pre Internet and what you would need to do to complete the series. Then how the beginning of AOL and eBay changed everything. Plus Mary Beth was in there, I still remember using AIM with her and Chat rooms with others to make our own distribution. 2 Quote

I would not post it here unless I think the vast majority of USA males would like it. I am also really enjoying Station 11 but wouldn't recommend it here. Edited January 4, 2022 by Pseudoty 1 Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted January 5, 2022 Posted January 5, 2022 Cobra Kai season 4 was great. It managed to honor the movies and tie them in with the current storyline. I was actually sad I had to wait 1 year for the next season. 1 Quote

What did you think of it? I can certainly see where he is coming from. Season 1 was all about developing characters, finding purpose and forming relationships. Great scenery, lots of action, easy to enjoy. Season 2 has more struggles with the established characters and ends on a brutal cliff hanger. Since its mostly based on the book 'Blood of Elves' the story line also pivots to include the elves struggle as well. And the elves played a very little role in Season 1, so kind of a big switch. I did read some people's complaint was Season 2 focused too much on setting up season 3 and not enough vision for the story at present. I personally enjoyed it from the very beginning of Episode 1. Also, the time spent at the 'Witcher's Keep', Kaer Morhen , without giving away too many spoilers, we get to learn a lot more about the Witcher history. Season 3 is rumored to be mostly based on the more popular of the books, Time of Contempt. Also suppose to reveal more about the 'Wild Hunt'. Sign me up. It sounds like they are fantastic reads, I am looking forward to starting the series. Another possibility was your friend was disappointed not seeing Yennifer nude, unlike in season 1. In which case, I can also understand✌️😉 But saying Season 2 was awful would be slightly over dramatic. Edited January 6, 2022 by BricksBrotha typo 1 1 Quote
