Joe Amaro has sent out an update concerning the upcoming Manta Raider, which was first set to be available at Power-Con this weekend.
From Joe:
The Manta Raiders casts have not arrived, there is still hope, but we may not have them in time for Power Con. Unfortunately, this means I may not have time to do a pre-sell. I am sorry.
The good news is that the Manta Raider is still happening and Rudy has agreed to sign all the back cards so if we don’t make it to Power Con and we have to do online ordering all the Manta Raiders will come signed by Rudy Obrero.
Along with this announcement, Joe has given us the first look at the awesome blister card packaging for the Manta Raider, featuring the artwork of Rudy Obrero! Looking sweet!
We’ll be sure to keep you all updated on the status of the Manta Raider sale!

When a video game becomes popular, it’s not uncommon to find merchandise such as posters, comics, or even action figures based on characters from the games. But some video games get the honor of being turned into an animated series! Some of these cartoons are good, most are not so good, but they are ALL fun!
The Videocade Commentaries is a podcast series where three guys who love video games offer their own commentary on these cartoons! Join RetrowareTV.com alumni “Pixel Dan” Eardley, Lance “Ito” Cortez, and Eric Lappe as they watch these cartoons with YOU!

Welcome to Flashback Friday on Pixel-Dan.com!
Flashback Friday is a chance for me to share some of my past videos with everyone again. This will allow newer viewers to see a video they might not have yet seen, and allow the long-time viewers a trip down memory lane! It also serves to show just how much my videos have evolved over the years. Warning: the quality will not always be very good in these older videos!
Today’s Flashback is a look at an action figure produced by Parker Brothers! in 1979, the company known mostly for their board games attempted something bold by producing their very own sci-fi themed action figure known as ROM the Space Knight!
