ALBOTAS.com has posted their second episode of blind.boxed.tv. This is the first episode that I've seen and here are a few comments and observations I have.

  • First off, you pretty much have to compare any designer toy show to Toy Break. This is more of a "hipster" show than Toy Break. While Toy Break wallows in the nerdiness of collecting (which I love), Blind Boxed goes for the hipster crowd (Hence, the host checking out the new Kidrobot toys on his iPhone.)
  • It seems a little more scripted.
  • The background video game themed music distracts from the audio.
  • They need to lighten up on the F-bomb. I felt like I was watching an early Kevin Smith movie. Gratuitous and unnecessary F-bomb dropping.
