It was fake info by an employee...

No it was a custom made by the Skykids, then someone tried to pass it off as real.

ZACHARY GAVE THE U.S WIND UP.

HE HAS BEEN SAVED FROM LOBSTER DEATH.

Meh i go for the Lobster attack theory of the no Boomcast thing

The Boomcast season 1 ended. Robert Welkner (Coin-Op TV aka Penny Man) said it on one of his latest videos today. I know it didn't have a lot of deep insider info that we already didn't know but I kind of looked forward to it :/

It's all explained at 2:16 in this video:

Thanks for posting the vid, I couldn't remember which one it was

Some advice...if they're no longer producing episodes...then don't leave the audience hanging. Kinda bummed although I suspect there wasn't too much more to cover.

Yeah if I didn't see that episode where Robert said it was over I wouldn't of known. I wish they talked a little more about variants and chase stuff. It was as if Quick Draw RS, Full Metal Sprocket and Special Edition Gill Grunt didn't exist. Talk about Skylander Saturday at GameStop (even if it wasn't perfect) and maybe, just maybe, give us a clue that certain figures are out (wave 3?) and others are not out (Stink Bomb in the first couple episodes?). Then I would be worthy of Portal Masters

I found the series almost impossible to watch – although that’s not a massive surprise, since I’m over 30 and the show is clearly aimed at kids. And for what it was, I think it did a great job. It let kids know what was coming up, showed them a few figures that they might otherwise not have known about and I’m sure kids would have enjoyed the cheesy (but friendly and enthusiastic) presentation.

I guess I’d like to see two formats: One for the kids (which this one clearly was) and one for teens that focuses on behind the scenes looks, in-depth character strategies, release schedules for different countries, tips for score/speed modes and so forth. The ‘older’ show needs someone older to present it (like blitzwinger, the coin-op tv guy or the family gamer guy) in a matter-of-fact, non-embarrassing way. I mean, even blitzwinger and the coin-op tv guy flirt with the ‘I-feel-silly-for-watching-this-because-it’s-clearly-aimed-at-young-kid’s’ line, but on the whole they present stuff that is digestible by kids, yet not embarrassing for older viewers to watch.
Edit: I really love the play-throughs where coin-op tv got other people to come and play co-op. Those were really fun.

I would love to see behind the scenes of the whole process too, like when Skylander Boy and Girl were invited to I think Toys for Bob? They got to see some early figure art, different figure poses and also how the whole thing starts and ends. It would be great to see that as a weekly format! Even maybe a contest or two once in a while and some on location things like Skylander Day at GameStop (as dead as it was). The Skylander bus or whatever that thing was, was neat but I would never rent a huge RV if I have the game at home.

I would love to see some useful info. out of one of these episodes. I get that they are a weekly add but telling me when I can spend my cash might be useful in the long run marketing wise. Otherwise I'll drop my cash somewhere else and not be able to get the shinny new Skylanders when they do drop randomly.

I agree. I think there are more older "kids" playing this than Acti and VV really think. I still wonder how I get sucked into this.

hey guys - just wanted to jump in quickly regarding Skylanders Boomcast!

First up -- I've read all the feedback/comments on the Skylanders Boomcast -- thank you!

Second - I was 'one of the writers' of the show -- and it was a great ride -- I think it's safe to say the actual show is on hiatus now as we wrapped up 'season one' covering pre and post launch of Skylanders Swap Force

Third - I would keep checking out the SkylandersGame channel as they'll most likely be new videos/trailers and who knows - maybe other great surprises.

Fourth -- if a 2nd season of Boomcast does happen - I'll try to incorporate any feedback/notes from the community as best as I can / assuming I'm invited back to participate

that's all for now - just wanted to help clear up any rumors -- and btw Zach Gordon is alive and doing well!

-Rob Welkner aka CoinOpTV

Thanks rob

is this dead now?
