The Review of Death

RoD Update (12/08/2022)

Added 2022-08-12 11:00:06 +0000 UTC

Happy roughly-middle-of-August time, everybody!

We've got a bumper crop of news to impart in today's update post!

Firstly, as you can see from the main image, we've set up a chat with the Celestial Toymaker himself, Al Dewar - Creative Director at Character Options and the man behind Doctor Who's toy empire since 2005! It feels like this has been a long time coming for Matt's channel, RoD Pod aside, so we're both really looking forward to discussing the history of the range and what goes into developing action figures, Sonic Screwdrivers and Flesh Goo Pots.

Please leave some questions for Al in the comments - we'll be publicly announcing the interview later today, so this is a chance to ask whatever you fancy ahead of Twitter and Instagram!

Hope you enjoyed yesterday's new episode! We generally quite enjoyed our time with 'Arc of Infinity'! It was nice being able to talk about topical news (or lack thereof!) by recording two days before release! You can watch the new episode here.

We've recorded two Patreon exclusive Q&As, the first of which will drop next Thursday. We'll be trying our best to get one of these out to you guys on every off week where you don't usually get a full-fat episode.

And finally, we've added a new supporter goal on the main Patreon page! If we hit 90 patrons, we'll do a glossy audio commentary of the fan-film epic, 'Plastic Treachery'! I want to make a bit of a deal out of this and push the production a bit further than usual and we might even have a special guest joining us for it!

So to recap (TL;DR) - brand new RoD (Ep32. Arc of Infinity) out now, Al Dewar interview (Ep33) recording next Tuesday (released 25th August), Patreon Q&A I out 18/08, Ep34 (8th September) might be a review of 'The Abominable Snowmen' animation and 'Plastic Treachery' commentary in the works!

All the best folks,

- RoD
