Giving this LiveStream Thing a Shot

My LiveStream Setup

Today I decided to try out some Live Streaming. I have a lot to learn to make this a much better experience for anyone watching. I a using a software called OBS. This can do a lot of things and I got it set up so that I can play video games as well as change camera sizes. I may even grab a small HD webcam to have an additional camera angle to use when showing toys. I’ve also got to make sure that if I am doing any video game livestreaming to turn off the music from the games. I immediately got a copyright ding from Nintendo for the music from ARMS.

In my livestream I unboxed my latest Smugglers’s Bounty box. This box was themed Jedi and it contained items for Jedi like Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jin, Aayla Secura, Plo Koon and Yoda. There were good items in the box although I would have liked it if they included the paper inside that details how they decided on the characters and what it took to come up with the character designs for the Funko figures.

As far as Funko figures go I found some little figures for the movie Thor Ragnarok. They are actually keychains but I take the keychain part off to have small figures. I’ll be taking them with me to LA next month for the Thor Ragnarok Press trip that I am attending. I’ve got to write up a post all about it, too.

During the livestream I also played some Legend of Zelda and show a cool little robot that we got for review. So, take a look and I promise I will figure out the whole sound thing for the extra videos and video games.

I am a subscriber to the Star Wars Smuggler’s Bounty box from Funko and this month’s box was the 40th Anniversary box. I’ve read a bunch of reviews of this and people are really harsh about it. There were five items in the box. There was the usual patch and pin, a giant Funko piece, wristbands and a set of salt and pepper shakers. The thing that people were most complained about was that there was nothing for Princess Leia in the box. There easily could have been a Princess Leia patch or pin included. I personally missed seeing one of those pages that tells me what is coming next time. I like it because it talks about the items in the box. Having that not included bummed me out. Sure I would have loved to have a shirt instead of wristbands, that is a given. I always want T-Shirts. I would have loved a re-creation of the iconic poster for Star Wars: A New Hope made into a T-Shirt using Funko figures. Well, here is what is in the box, I liked it but it could have been better.
