How we can better communicate with Brian and Super 7?

Based on Sebastians excellent suggestion I would like to start this thread so we can discuss how to better communicate with Brian and Super 7 going forward.

As it is, I think the interview format in article form is old hat and clearly being supeceded by Youtube videos and podcasts. Why doesn't the site have a youtube channel of it's own so we don't have to defer to Youtube toy reviewers for info. This is the number one Thundercats page on the web and it's only presence is this site.

The main Youtube Thundercats channel is LioConvoy Reviews. I don't believe Brian has shown interest on being interviewed there but he will show up to smaller channels for exposure. I can't see why he would be averse to this format and this site would reach a much broader audience than being based on site alone.

Questions could be left here or we could converse in a live chat situation. Both would work.

I think we need to move with the times and stop letting these big pages like the Fwoosh and others take the spotlight from us. This site should be the go to for Brian when it comes to all things Thundercats.

What does everyone think? How can we be sure to have our voices heard and make sure this line is as successful as possible?

YouTube is surely the way to go and has been on my mind too quite a bit. I will discuss with the mods on the way forward.
I do like the idea of having forum users post questions like they did over at He-man.org a while back. That same format could work too.
In reference to your other question in the separate thread, I will go have to read through the interviews again in a few days and highlight/paste that here. Just moved house so it is a bit chaot atm.

Where is Grizzlor these days? He's not even been on the site this year. Thunderianroyalguard is been gone long while too.

Life happens but we all find our way back in the end. Recently saw some very oooold friends revisit the site so I’m sure we’ll see them again some day.

It's not like they're random members, it's the site owner and an admin. Funny they just dropped off. So when you say discuss with the mods, you mean zaxx?

If Super 7 provided me with some figures to do some written and video reviews for the Thundercats.org site and Youtube channel I would be more than happy to do it.

I think it would definitely be a good idea having a thread to ask questions and better communicate with Brian and Super 7.

It would also be very cool to be able to ask questions about other Ultimates lines like Transformers, TMNT etc much like other sites do like Fwoosh, Pixel Dan etc.

No I have spoken with the owner and other mods, including Zaxx. Please bear with us while we deliberate.

No, this won’t work. We deal exclusively in TC and its related properties SilverHawks and TigerSharks. If there is any call out to other lines they do it is always within context of the question. If you want a broader context, TheFwoosh is your go-to-place. I know it is mine for all other topics. :thumbsup

Booshman, are you suggesting that we dive into on-camera toy reviews ourselves? Or just use YouTube as a platform for conversing with Super7?

I mean to use as a platform for interviews with Brian and anyone else who is going to release Thundercats related product. Live action movie coming out, new cartoon, another set of statues, people should be coming here to drum up some hype. Once you have a platfrom you could add any additional content you want. Toy review in the vein of Toy Bro is no difficult thing is it? Hold up toy, priase toy, show how toy bends, express excitement for next toy release, repeat. Hopefully we could come up with somthing more substantial. As it is all the interviewers and reviewers in the space right now, bar one, know very little about Thundercats.

I'd be down for some ThunderCats.org YouTube interviews with Super7. I still like the traditional text format because it's a time saver for the reader/viewer, but it would be cool for the site to have more of an online presence as well.

Incorporating fan questions from this site ahead of the interview would be nice to give more voices and perspectives. I recall that Mr. Alan in the World of Toys does that with some of his video interviews.

I dunno man, given the option these days it's much more conveneient to listen to a conversation while I do something else or I'm out and about, than to sit and read an article. This format can cover a lot more ground more quickly, feels more personal, and is a truer representation of a real conversation.

I can understand that perspective.
