      They didn't even care about the Megos (Boxed Robin and Circle Suit Spidey)...They were more concerned with the MIB SMDM...

        This show is put on junk. Bob Kane Batman sketch from 1970 and they tell the guy it's worth like $10K and is rare like George Washington's autograph. Heritage's last sketch which was much nicer with more characters and brought just $1200.

            I couldn't watch all the way through,
            and stopped after the Mego/SMDM segment.

            Both segments in the store felt totally staged,
            and I'm disappointed because this concept should have been a lot more fun
            than what i saw.

                I watched it long enough to see the scenes for next week's eppy of THE WALKING DEAD, then I went to bed. I might go back and watch it later, I might not. They all kinda seem a little duushbaggy to me....
                sigpic Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.

                  I DVRed this, but I have little hope that I'll like it. A little Smith goes a long way for me, especially as I get older.

                    I watched it while waiting for the Walking Dead to come on. (The kids were awake during the 7pm showing so I couldn't watch) I did get a chuckle or two out of some of the segments but it does seem to be staged. These guys also act like they are better than everybody so it makes it kind of hard to like them or the show.

                      Pretty staged but it was the pilot so I'll give it another shot.

                      The stuff brought in was interesting but the filler material was a bit painful.

                      It's amazing how many Circle Suit Spider-Man figures pop up in reality shows...

                      The Bob Kane sketch seemed way over the top, no way I would offer more than $800 for that.

                        ^Did anyone see Kane sketch it? More than likely Shelly Moldoff was under the table and drew it for Kane, right there at the con!!!

                          I'd think that Detective 35 would be worth more than the sketch, no matter the condition. You just don't see them much. I guessing it's easier to find a Kane Batman sketch than a copy of that comic.

                          All shows like these are staged, but this was so poorly shot that there wasn't even an illusion of reality.

                          I did enjoy the guy with the beard, breaking the plates at the flea market.

                          Some of the pod cast banter was enjoyable, and it was funny seeing the movie memorabilia guy deflate the guy with the zombie poster and photos. Maybe they should give that guy a show.

                          Overall, it was disappointing. I hope Palitoy is right about the show possibly improving, but I'm probably still going to watch the next episode because its got comics and action figures and is on TV.
