I liked it guys. Generally you used the interview to cue the visual cutaways which was nice. The video was missing some nice close ups of the Havok (which was included in picture form), it would of been nice to see some more original art but you can only fit so much in. On a side note, I was totally planning to do a Collectors corner on either New Game Plus and/or Graphic Content, and you guys have beaten me to it! Well done.

My list of required artists is ever-expanding, as I've got a checklist I'm going to try and fill for 2014/2015. Tim Sale is the top of my list, so don't mind getting more than a few of his pieces
Love Sale's art!

Great show, guys. Am loving every episode!

Rod, your collection is totally raging! I was waiting to see more of it as the episode unfolded and feel like i still want to. I can't believe how chockers your house is!

On the collection/family balance thing, 2 observations to make:

1. Dude, can your wife please mentor mine in how to be cool about the collection bug? My wife is so much worse at dealing with far less of a collection. I'm not griping, mind you. She has lots of good points. I just think its really cool how supportive your wife is. Big props to her!
2. How do the kids go with all the glass and statues? Mine are older than yours and I could tell you some stories that didn't end well. You must have a room to keep the kids in while the collection has the run of the house, right? Lol!

Well done to you all on the great coverage of Rocket's awesome museum.

Thanks Dan! And Liam and Simon

Yeah, the majority of the detolfs etc are sectioned in a room with a child proof barrier, but that said, Lila is just amazing with knowing what is not to be touched. I've never had ANY issue with little hands, touch wood.

I think part of that is because it's all been here longer than the kids so it's never been "new" or attention grabbing if that makes sense? It's just part of the furniture to them! We also have a running joke with Lila, we stole the line from one of her favorites in Beauty and the Beast, and she tells people that "Daddy's Collection is FORBIDDEN!"


Maybe the gang can come back and do a follow up episode There is certainly much much more to cover

Not to try to steal Ken and Co's thunder, but you should check out Graphic Content. It's a monthly comic web show http://newgameplus.tv/features/3944/...nt-episode-01/

We also do a weekly 30 min tv show (mainly on video games).
