I personally think the taste of revenge is actually a little salty.

* - It's probably no big secret that it's around this time that I go out of town to film the TGWTG Anniversary. While I'm confident that I'll get two episodes written, recorded, and edited this week in time for it, I haven't read the Transformers comic yet, so it might be something that takes too long, isn't that bad, or doesn't have a lot of joke material. If that's the case, I have two options: try to rush out the crossover I filmed last MAGFest and have that be the episode (the script is finished, just waiting on the voiceover material from the other producers, told them not to rush it since it's waited this long and they've got their own prep to do for the anniversary... though if it comes to this, I'll ask them to hurry). The other option, and more likely one, is that I'll take a written review (most likely the very old Thunderstrike review) and do it as an updated script, which requires less work, but is still a new video.
Pollo Redesign Contest
I have picked out a winner and I've written the script for the winner announcement! Really, it just comes down to time to film and edit it. If I can get it done before the trip, great, otherwise expect it in April. As for when the actual prop will be built and shown on the show, that's a question left to the Prop Lady herself, who's building the thing. XD
History of Power Rangers Update
Aaah, nothing like another History of Power Rangers update where I tell you I'm still working on it. I had hoped to get the thing done with by the end of March, but unfortunately I've just run out of time, especially with the anniversary filming plus I got really badly sick several days ago that made me miss a day and a half worth of work time. It's going to be rough when I get back, too, since it's tax season so I have to focus on getting all that together.
However, the good news that I will tell you on this front is that I've decided NOT to wait until finishing Mystic Force to release the SPD review. The advantage from here on out is that all the seasons are shorter, plus there's only one annual team-up left (ignoring the RPM/Samurai one for the moment) and one of the reasons I wait until finishing the next season usually before releasing the next video is in seeing how the characters evolve in the team-up, which Mystic Force doesn't have, so that isn't a factor. The other reason is usually because I want a season to simmer for a bit and watching the next one helps with that, buuut frankly after so many months of not releasing a HOPR, I think there's been plenty of simmering.
A lot of people have been asking about Samurai and Super Samurai and whether I will be separating them out. Really that depends on Saban. I haven't been able to get a straight answer on whether or not Super Samurai is considered a new season by Saban or not. If it IS a new season, then they will get separate videos. If they aren't, we'll have to wait until Super Samurai is finished.
Conventions
In case you haven't seen this video yet, CONBRAVO!
EDIT: It's a link now because for some reason Blip's latest update is making any video auto-play when the embed code is put on a site, plus the embed code is too big for the blog. Check out the announcement HERE.
In addition, I haven't had time to make formal video announcements for them, but I am ALSO going to Animinneapolis in, well, Minneapolis in late June/early July! It's a local convention for me, but I'll be a guest there doing another live show, plus my friend Will, who plays Snowflame and is the suit actor for Lord Vyce, will be there, too!
And if summertime conventions aren't for you, I've already announced that I shall be returning to Youmacon this November! The event is huge and yep, more live show fun, plus some other stuff that may develop as more guests are signed on.
Come join the fun!

The story no one demanded continues!
NOTE: Going to head this one off while there are still only three comments on it. I have been informed about rocket-propelled grenades or RPGs.

Commentary and Behind the Scenes
FINALLY hear Linkara's commentary for the Electric Tale of Pikachu episode!
Other things not mentioned:
-The cry that I heard when fighting MissingNo. seemed to be Zapdos' cry. I remember that specificially because once when I went to fight Zapdos in the Power Plant, I was terrified to hear its cry and thought the game had glitched and MissingNo. was in the power plant.
-The other reason why the other reviewers could still tweet and do all their videos was because I wasn't going to insist they all stop production on their own stuff just to satisfy the storyline in MY videos. A lot of other producers rely on the income from the videos just like I do and it's ridiculous to think that mine are more important than theirs.
ALSO! While I was looking through footage in my projects folder, I came across Behind the Scenes footage I filmed during the Brawl! Never really released it before because there's not much to it, but hey - you can experience just how tedious it can be to sit in a room for ten hours and watch other people record. Enjoy!

Dr. Doom's Revenge!
Personally I think we should have given the sanctions against Dr. Doom more time.
