  • Summary

  • For those of you who are not familiar with Funkatronic Rex, we are a friendly local game store located in Phoenix, AZ. However, we are quite unique.

    We tend to be the goofy, gregarious, and non-grindy gaming geeks of the community.


    With a humble staff of 4 friends, we love our customers dearly and many of them are like family to us. Our social interactions and goal of a warm "Cheers" style vibe has a direct effect on our niche community.

    As with any community, we have an abundance of hilarious stories and insight.

    Our aim is to bring you in, share the vibe, and bring the love of the Funk to you in our podcast!

    We hope you enjoy!

  • Episode 13: THE STORY OF LOREHAMMER
    Sep 23 2024

    Episode 13! Lucky 13 brings a special guest!

    It is with great pleasure and gratitude that we present this special episode to y’all. Joining the Funk crew is our good buddy Chris, amazing painter, gaming aficionado, fellow audio man, and also we have Mark from the highly rated podcast, Lorehammer!


    Mark and his friends began the Lorehammer podcast in 2017 and produced 100 episodes initially. The podcast hit #1 in the hobby podcast category on Apple Podcasts and they were offered an exclusive deal with Spotify. After a couple year break, the boys are back with new episodes of Lorehammer! We are honored to have Mark join the show and share his love for Warhammer and the story behind the inspirational show, Lorehammer.


    - News & Upcoming - We recap the LARGEST 40K event Funkatronic Rex has ever had, Double Trouble. Players teamed up to play a couple of 2v2 matches and it was RAD! The CATAN Championship is coming up on October 5th and we are getting excited! Trade wood for wood… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyvyhkF8Xr4


    - Hobby Highlights - Mark dives into his love of 3D printing with his latest Lord of the Rings minis. Lord Vader (Mike) gushes over the insanity of his latest Ork conversion. A huge Baneblade becomes the object of the love of more Dakka. (PICS ON INSTAGRAM & DISCORD) Shoutout to our buddy Billy for being the living version of an Ork and making some HEAVY METAL TERRAIN and an Ork blade. Chris struggles painting, what Lord Vader calls, “God’s Golden Brown” with Marvel Crisis Protocol Bishop along with some elves from Age of Sigmar.

    Court geeks out by combining nerd and jock! Custom painted Battletech mechs as Liverpool Football Club. Pics coming soon! Also Court got to host a spooky game of the new Arkham Horror Roleplaying Game and is diggin’ the vibe!


    - MAIN TOPIC: THE STORY OF LOREHAMMER w/ MARK!

    Mark graciously spends his time answering our questions about the origins of Lorehammer, his return to the microphone, Dadhammer, and thoughts on what Games Workshop has done with the IP. Mark turns the tables and asks us a few questions as well.

    BONUS GAME: IN THE PLEASANT LIGHT OF THE FAR FUTURE…
    War has ended, peace reigns across the galaxy, and each army needs to find their place within the new way of things. What are some of the major players doing now that there is no war? ;)
