February always goes by so fast, between Toy Fair and those few less days, it's here and gone before you know it. But that's no excuse for no Powercast! We start this month's episode out with a discussion of the big event with McSmeag, where we give you the details on the new sets and let you know what really caught our eye. Then McSmeag and Makaru tell you all about BBC Contest #61. Following that (and it wasn't easy to do), Kaiapu, Deevee, and I talk about all the things we remember about BZPo...

2011 is almost upon us and the staff thought that we should look back at 2010 and what a great year it's been. I start out talking to Hahli Husky and Janus as we look through some of the major highlights of the year and talk a little bit about what next year may bring. Then, we asked you, the members, what your favorite memories of 2010 were, which we're now sharing with you. There were a bunch of excellent replies. Finally we close out the year with a recording from Andrew and Andrew.
