Hey people... It is that time of year again. Time to be thankful for stuff. And if one of the things you are thankful for is new episodes of Action Features... Well, you're welcome. In this episode, Mike & James run through quite a range of current topics; Stuff like the sour grapes of George Lucas, Avengers 2, Rob Liefeld comic covers, the disaster known as the Jem and the Holograms movie, and old toy lines being resurrected. There is more stuff too, but why spoil everything? Just go listen to it. Time for Action Features.

Action Features Special Edition-
The Star Worlds Radio Drama
An Empire World Episode 3
"Clothes Make The Star-Man"
Prepare for excitement as the Action Features boys bring you another random installment of the long lost Star Worlds radio drama. Sure, you might have thought the vintage Star World action figure carrying case was just a cheap knockoff of Kenner's Star Wars carrying case... but boy would you be stupid if you thought that. Turns out much more was planned than just a simple vinyl box. Tune in now and thrill to the adventures of Luke Starworld and his merry band of rebels as they fight the oppressive World Breaker and his battle battalion. Go now... Time for Action Features, time for a Star World.

9/25/2015
Well, look what we have here... Another free-for-all episode of Action Features! Mike & James are joined by their friend Nate Bauer from Hazard Publishing for a discussion on a gaggle of random topics like Rob Liefeld Vs Charles Lippincott, fundraising candy bars, too many Prometheus movies, cutting your own hair, and Paul Feig's twitter meltdown. In fact, there is so much crammed in this episode that I can't even remember it all to list it in this synopsis. So grab a snack... Time for Action Features.

Action Features Podcast Episode 82:
The One Where All Of Our Weeds Seem To Be Bearing Bitter Fruit
9/4/2015
Who knows what this episode of Action Features has in store for you? The Shadow knows... Well, and you since you're reading this. In this installment, James & Mike tackle one of their favorite characters of all- The Shadow! While a big part of the show focuses on the 1994 film starring Alec Baldwin, the boys also give their thoughts on the radio dramas, the pulp adventures, the comics and (by request) the Kenner toy line. Sound like fun? Good. Because right about now the sun is shining... but the ice is slippery... Time for Action Features.

And since I forgot to say it on the show... Here is what my dream Shadow movie line would have consisted of...
Basic Figures (Preferrable 5" scale, no *ahem* action features):
-The Shadow (standard look with switch out Lamont Cranston head and twin .45 guns)
-Shiwan Khan (final battle robes with calm face Phurba dagger)
-"Ying-ko" Lamont Cranston (look from beginning of film... comes with angry face Phurba dagger)
-Mongul Warrior (with removable armor, pistol, and crossbow)
-Margo Lane (in dress from beginning of film... includes atomic bomb accessory)
Vehicles:
-Mongul Warrior motorcylce with detachable "escape" sidecar. Includes Shiwan Khan in suit.
-The Shadow's cab with "transforming" back seat to turn Lamont into the Shadow. Includes Moe Shrevnitz.
Mini-Playsets (like the old Kenner Star Wars cantina):
-Khan's Tomb with snap-open surprise launching figure feature... Includes Shiwan Khan in Genghis Khan attire
-Water Tower that really holds water... Trap The Shadow! Includes water-soaked Lamont Cranston.
Large-scale Playset:
-The Shadow's Sanctum! Loaded with play features, and includes Lamont Cranston in suit.
Now THAT would all make me one very happy Shadow fan! (-James)
