@csbg I love a good Deadpool/Snake Eyes fight. The Merc With The Mouth against the silent commando.

I'll never understand how we live in a world where Super Dinosaur exists (as a franchise, not for real, sadly), and yet it's not the biggest name in kid's entertainment.
At least now anyone who wants to can play Super Dinosaur in their Essence20 campaign.

[Know Direction @knowdirection.bsky.social @knowdirection]

Skybound may be publishing the new #GIJoe comic, but Ryan Costello brings an older Skybound character, Super Dinosaur, to the #Essence20RPG in the latest Essential Builds on the #knowdirectionnetwork.

@knowdirection Sadly, the species was hunted to near extinction after a rumour spread of a magic bone that could grant wishes.

@80sToyBoy I cleared out a shelf last year.

@ToyGalaxyDan I can't afford another line, so can everyone do me a favour and stop sharing amazing pics of Cosmic Legion figures? TYSM

[Ryan Costello @KDRyanCostello]

@knowdirection Said with love, @RoscMan!

[Ryan Costello @KDRyanCostello]

If at first your players don't engage with your puzzle, add spikes! Maybe throw in some floor saws.

[Know Direction @knowdirection.bsky.social @knowdirection]

Jason Keeley, master puzzler, explores how and why to bring puzzles into #Essence20RPG campaigns and any #ttrpg.

I love the story of how Eastman and Laird brute forced their passion for this weird idea into a 40 year old brand beloved by millions.

[City of Dover NH @CityofDoverNH]

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle fans were on Union Street for the unveiling of the TMNT sewer manhole cover, marking the birthplace of the comic 40 years ago this month. TMNT co-creator Kevin Eastman spoke about how he and Peter Laird started their turtle odyssey at 28 Union St.

@HISSTANK Pictured: 5% of 1980 Force!

@knowdirection @NinjaCatVanessa Now how are people supposed to find your story about your Pathfinder 1e airship?

[Ryan Costello @KDRyanCostello]

Avi was one of my favourite guests, and this new episode reinforces why. They are passionate and outspoken, articulating complex thoughts in ways that are easy to understand. #Pathfinder2e fans owe Avi and the Paizo editors for more than they realize.

[Know Direction @knowdirection.bsky.social @knowdirection]

Avi Kool, #pathfinder2e lead editor, tells Esther and Navaar about the unexpected hats an editor on one of the world's leading roleplaying games has to wear.

@SerpentorsLair Hey look! The Dungeons & Dragons ride!
W-w-what's happening?

[Ryan Costello @KDRyanCostello]

@PG_Toys Is it controversial to say I think Rocky works better as a piece of G.I. Joe trivia than an official release?

@MoseyDm And then there's the TMNT arcade bio for Splinter that says he's 30.
30! I'm over ten years older than Splinter and I haven't raised a single ninja turtle. What was he, 15 when he found them?

[Ryan Costello @KDRyanCostello]

@MoseyDm Apparently I'm only a year younger than Miles Mayhem was in M.A.S.K. I think I've aged more gracefully.

[Ryan Costello @KDRyanCostello]

For real, how is The Rocketeer not everyone's favourite movie?

[Know Direction @knowdirection.bsky.social @knowdirection]

With Cobra Codex's Technician (Rocketeer) Focus fresh in his mind, Ryan brings the hero of one of his favourite movies growing up to an #essence20RPG table.

@ToyGalaxyTV This explains why I had fond memories of watching Super Friends as a kid and was also confused by 90% of the pop culture references to it.
