This week on the show, I am working on the packaging for a new batch of Lego Rocketeer custom minifigures as well as opening up a set of four Rocketeer gashapon toys.  In case you’re not familiar with these, I think the term originated in Japan and refers to toys that are found in capsules sold in vending machines.  They’re also to be found elsewhere in Asia (the set I lucked out on – obtained on eBay – was from Hong Kong) and are generally more detailed and intricate that the sorts of toys you tend to find in US vending machines.  

There’s a video part to this episode, too:
