Definitely one of your best episodes!!
Thanks. This was a deep dive. Some really great collabs on this. Great message on having empathy which we could all use to have more. Also hope you can write off that trip for tax purposes. Have a great week.
good video
Some of your best work, well done.
Great episode! As a police officer, I was a certified Crisis Intervention Officer. That training was certainly an eye opener, and was the first time I had saw mental health beyond the stigmas.
Easily one of the top Cobras one of my favorites and I have the og uncensored file card Yeah!!! Ace Frehly from KISS and The Ultimate Warrior from WWF have always had a kinda Zartan look. Keep em coming HCC
I enjoy these deep dive looks at characters. I, not tooting my own horn, have a decent amount of knowledge on a lot of toylines, but always enjoy anything fresh or even old information more fleshed out. Great job!
The Devils Due Declassified series actually touches on the mental health issues Zartan has. Still, it is more that he has a deteriorating mental disease, which causes him to forget who he is, and he takes medication to suppress this degenerating sickness.
Finally! The Zartan file card controversy is professionally detailed and placed outside of misunderstanding.
Am I missing something? I replaced o rings for Zartan and Zaranna recently. I didn't have any problems @hoodedcobracommander788
There is a common sun allergy called PMLE Ploymormphus light eruption, amongst other sun related allergies. This may also be an influence behind Zartans sunlight reaction.
That's great that you got plaid stallions to do collaboration. Brian is an awesome dude, as a child of the late 70s early 80s his channel has been a favorite for along time now
Ewok cobras oh boy, I’m glad they didn’t go in that direction
Sand, it’s rough, coarse and irritating, abs it gets everywhere.
It’s even worse when your torso is glued shut.
Have you ever done a video on how Hasbro got by with naming a character Snow Job? To this day, I don't know how they got by with it.
Best character ever! I am biased though
Another great review of an epic character! As a kid, I immediately had to get Zartan when I first saw his tv commercial and ad in the fold-out catalog. He was a cool concept for a guy that didn't wear a full mask and helmet. I liked how they portrayed Zartan in the Sunbow cartoon, but his character in the comic was that much more lethal.
I really don't see why this is controversial and why anyone would care? It's a toy FFS!
Great job with this Zartan video!
so good
Ursula do be havin a point
Great interview with a Medical Health Karen, anyone triggered by a toys file card in 1994 was 30 years before they or them’s time.
This was excellent. Zartan was always my favorite COBRA characters because of his aesthetic and uniqueness. Thank you!
Retreating is what I saw at the end…
I played with Zartan more than any other figure.
Zartan's storyline in the Marvel comics where he became the apprentice of the Sword Master Onihashi was one of the best stories in the ARAH.
Wow this video is so amazing and extremely helpful and respectful! Come for the toys, stay for the nuance lol
