- [Griffin] Tooth check. - [Justin] No teeth yet,
good. Perfect, good! Staying on task. (playful electronic music) - All right, we're back!
(Justin laughing) We're back in the seat, in the saddle.
- We fixed it! - You're welcome, Todd!
- We fixed it! Todd came to my house. I have
an uncle who works at Todd. He said, "Let me come fix it for you" and he did, he installed a
few modifications to Garfield and we're gonna experience
them altogether. Justin, great news. I've already played the
first ho
ur of the game. - [Justin] I sent the
clapping emoji in Skype. Can you see that? - I can't, but I appreciate--
- Just letting you know I did. - [Griffin] I hope you're
clapping for the fact that you do not have
to watch the first hour of Starfield again. - [Justin] Oh, what a delight. - [Griffin] But you
may be asking yourself, "But Griffin, how, but now what?" 'Cause you're already made your guy. His name's human, I guess,
and he's just sort of a clean slate of a fellow.
- Yeah, he's a regular
guy. - [Griffin] We're gonna hack today, so don't look if that
stuff makes you nervous or if you are cyber cops. 'Cause we're going to show
looks menu player one. (imitates explosion) Jacked in! - [Justin] Oh no, wow! - [Griffin] So now we
just get to do it again. - [Justin] Oh, you can do it again. - So we'll do it again.
- Now, are we just gonna make a new guy? - [Griffin] Yes, we will make the guy now and we won't have to watch
him work a minimum wage job for 58 minutes.
- What happens to Scu
zz Lightyear? - [Griffin] Scuzz Lightyear died. So yeah, good point, Justin. We did do this already once.
- Okay, good. - [Griffin] We did do this already once and maybe someday that
footage will see the public. Maybe folks will be, we'll release that, we'll crack open the Disney vault. But for now, we're coming in clean slate. - [Justin] Okay, so that's
like a bonus. That's a bonus. We're gonna take Scuzz
Lightyear out to the bone yard. - [Griffin] Yeah. I downloaded a few mods
to give us a lit
tle bit of extra three-dimensional freedom. This is where the rubber hits the road. We got some extra sliders
that were not here before. - Oh, fun!
- That, with any luck, are really gonna let us get silly. Shape blends. I'm not
sure what that means. We're peering into the uncanny valley. I don't know if we're quite in there yet, but those aren't eyes as I know them. - [Justin] Yeah, they're
starting to retreat from oh! - [Griffin] Oh, there we go! Bazinga!
- All right! - [Griffin] Ooh, Juice,
my
heart is racing. I thought for sure that these sliders weren't gonna do anything funny. Whew, oh thank you God!
- Thank God! Oh, wow, what a relief!
- Thank Todd. - [Justin] What a relief. (both laughing) - [Griffin] Oh no! - [Justin] Both extremely good. (laughs) Okay, wait, can I say, I know the other ones are, like, wilder but there's something about. This looks like a "how to animate, how to do cartoons" for kids. Like, "You can make eyes communicate lots of different emotions like this!" -
[Griffin] Lots of cool,
holy shit, Juice! (laughs) - [Justin] Okay. - This is good shit, man!
- This is good. - [Griffin] Short eyes? - [Justin] Whoa, whoa! Now
you can really see those orbs. Oh no.
- Now you can-- - [Justin] Oh no. - [Griffin] Why is it asymmetrical? - [Justin] You lost the, this is a first. You lost the slider that ruined it. - [Griffin] What have I
done? What have I done? - [Justin] They all
look in the middle, eh? - [Griffin] Oh wait, okay,
okay, okay. Okay, hold on, wait.
Now if we go back to what? Okay, so this is our house.
This is our house where we live. Shit yes, yes, fuck yeah!
- Yeah, yeah! (Griffin imitate robot) - [Justin] No, I like, like
Tim Burton. I like big eyes. Yeah!
- Like that? That's cool!
- Yeah, that's cool! - [Griffin] He actually,
he looks cool now. - [Justin] That's cool. Okay, Griffin, now that I
know that you can do the size, can you make the eyes look not wild so it's like a Kewpie doll? Like, can we get big eyes, but just like-- - [Gri
ffin] Juice, I don't know
what I've done to these eyes that you would consider
the wild component of it. - [Justin] No, like the angle of the eyes. If they could be, like,
dead on and wide open. Like I want, like, I feel
like we could get some, okay, see, this is good, this is good. And now kinda, like.
See he's getting cuter. Do you see how cute he's getting?
- He is a cutie. Yeah, he's for sure a cutie. - [Justin] I, can I just say, Griffin? The eyes are looking very moist. Like, he's not appr
eciating what's happening.
- They do look super, duper, duper wet. - [Justin] Right? They look really wet. - [Griffin] Like we've
just caught him crying. - [Justin] Now see you did
something in the last 30 seconds and I've been looking right at it and I don't know what it is exactly, but something in the
last 30 seconds sent it. See, we got the ocular flap again. - That's okay, that's cool.
- The ridge, okay, that's cool.
- When you wear a spacesuit for so long, Juice, the spacesuit, like, reall
y squishes your, well,
from behind, it's, okay. - [Justin] From behind the flap is a--
- It's not pleasant, yeah. - [Justin] Yeah, yeah. But it's his flap. Good for him.
- It's his flap. Uh, eyebrows. - [Justin] Yeah, we need,
these eyes? They demand a brow. - [Griffin] I like a asymmetrical brow. That's a cool look.
- That's cool, the cut in? That's cool. - [Griffin] Juice, can I
say, we've been making a lot of fuckin' babies lately and maybe we make, like, a badass again. 'Cause some of our mo
st
important characters are the badass boys.
- Whoa, you say, wait, give me some examples of recent babies. - [Griffin] Like, yeah, we make, like, innocent, sad men for the most part, I feel like, on Monster Factory. - [Justin] So you're looking
for, you want a wickedness. - [Griffin] I want a dark wickedness. - [Justin] That's what people
turn to Monster Factory, to have to confront the dark
recesses of the human psyche. - [Griffin] Yeah. Yeah,
we're huge into that. Look at this stinker. Fuckin
g rules!
- Yeah! - [Griffin] He already kicks ass, man. - [Justin] Now are you
rethinking the eyes, maybe? Like he's the--
- No, not even a little bit at all.
- Okay, good, okay. I just wanna--
- 'Cause if the villain is sexy, Juice, if the villain is sexy, people go crazy for that shit. In the, you know, stories we are used to, the bad guy's, like, an
evil, twisted up rat. - [Justin] But you are
having the courage to say, "Not so fast." - [Griffin] Yeah, instead of
him being a twisted up rat, y
ou look at him and he's dangerous, but in a way that you'd love to bed. - [Justin] Oh, that's cool. - That's cool.
- That's someone who means business. - [Griffin] Yeah. He looks
like a tooth. (laughs) - [Justin] Yeah! - [Griffin] He looks like a bottom molar. What if he is a settler from
the Bicuspis star system and he's here to teach kids about--
- We've never made a tooth! - [Griffin] Teach kids about tooth decay. - [Justin] Thank goodness we
have an intergalactic mascot for decay prevention,
for cavity fighting. - [Griffin] Yeah, now which one sort of enhances his toothiness? - [Justin] Straight up and down is like... That feels more toothy to me, Toothsome.
- Okay, cool. See, I'm wondering, Juice,
if we wanna make him the noble tooth alien warrior, the nose isn't, that's not
what a tooth, that's not the shape a tooth casts.
- We have to eradicate the nose. - [Griffin] I think we might
need to destroy the nose. - [Justin] All right then. I wanted to to do this.
- A lot of work, lot
of work going right down the toilet. - [Justin] I wish, we wasted so much time on a nose we didn't need. Go away nose. We don't want you here. - [Griffin] Go away, you smelly nose. (Justin laughs)
Wait, hold on. - [Justin] This is making the nose more of a topic of conversation. I feel like some of your choices here are gonna make the nose really pop. - [Griffin] Yeah, yeah. - [Justin] Yeah, the physics of the nose are gonna be challenging to people. It's just, it's pulling focus. - [Griffin] I
t did. It is geneticular, I feel
like, to some who see it like a slight kind of,
like, Georgia O'Keeffe sort of realness there.
- Yeah, we love that. - [Griffin] We love that, yeah. The bottom of the nose
part I wish was gone. 'cause then he would just
look like a wise owl. - [Justin] I think we just gotta live with the nose we have. I mean, I don't like it either, but maybe we'll learn to
love it as we go forward. - I mean, if I can, I would--
- I do think, though, if you could get rid of the c
entral ridge, it would be less of a challenge. Okay, you've gone a little haywire. (both laughing) Are you feeling the same way about ears? Are you feeling like
we need to banish ears? - [Griffin] I don't think
they're gonna give us a lot of ear stuff. - [Justin] (snorts) Not
unless you pay extra. (Griffin grunts) - Aw, come back! All right, teeth. Refine. Wait, no, chin.
- Chin. - [Griffin] That's cool, yeah. - [Justin] It's kind of,
maybe that, too, it's like-- - [Griffin] That's hardened, for
sure. - [Justin] It is. That looks like a calcification
of teeth, yes, yes, good. - [Griffin] Okay. - [Justin] Oh, that's looking good. Oh, what?
- Oh that's looking real good. - Whoa!
- Yeah that looks pretty good. - [Justin] All right, now I'm
feeling like it's a tooth. - [Griffin] Yeah, that's good. That kinda, I don't know what the bottom of my teeth look like 'cause
I don't really get down there a whole lot, but I bet
it's something like that. - Yeah, that's, yeah!
- That's good. - [Justin
] That's like
go the bottom of the uh-oh, uh-oh!
- Nope, nope, yep, nope! - Yep, there we go, there we go.
- There we go, cool! - [Justin] Sorry, team,
nothing to see here. - [Griffin] This is one of the cooler guys we've had in a while, Juice.
- This guy's cool, man. I like this guy.
- This guy's rad. Is it weird that I kinda like the middle of these better than? - [Justin] I mean, it's 2024. If you wanna have a middle
slider, I think that that's fine. - [Griffin] It just seems the best option.
- [Justin] It does, it
looks good. It looks good. - [Griffin] What the mouth do though? - That is good.
- That's strong! - [Justin] Yeah, that's super strong. I bet you can make that
vamoose in a major way. - [Griffin] Oh, shit, Juice. We've been thinking of the
Bicuspis as a friendly sort of species that comes
from the stars to help you with your, but this guy looks not. - [Justin] This guy looks, this
guy means freaking business. - [Griffin] The chin's turned on me. - [Justin] Oh, it's not
si
tting well anymore. Is it the asymmetrical nature? Maybe just like a strong bottom. Like, that's what you're
thinking with teeth. It's not about the bottom.
- A long, strong bottom. - [Justin] Nobody cares what the bottom of a tooth looks like. See, that's powerful. - [Griffin] Neck? - [Justin] Why would-- - [Griffin] Why is there different necks? - [Justin] Oh man, that's
cool. Look at that. That's roots.
- Yeah, that's pretty cool. Wattle in or wattle out? - [Justin] Wattle out? Yeah. - [Griff
in] Monster Factory
is a pretty chill series to wattle out to. Jewelry? Oh, that's cute! Oh yeah, that's kinda alt.
- It's just feeling his sexy. I love it. Living his life. He's never too old. Ooh, oh, oh man! - All right.
- I kinda like the, like, that's cool, isn't it? - [Griffin] Can I say
my issue though, Juice? - [Justin] What? - [Griffin] I don't
think any proud Bicuspis would want holes put in them. - Right, okay, yeah.
- Like, frivolously. - [Justin] Yeah, you're probably right about th
at.
- But he can be kind of a bad boy. Maybe he has one hole. This is my one hole. - Okay, I like it.
- He's been exiled from the Bicuspis because he got a hole. He got his nose pierced on spring break. - [Justin] Okay, I like that. - [Griffin] Dermaesthetic. - [Justin] Oh, like
the skin texture? Cool! - [Griffin] All right,
tooth, tooth, tooth, tooth. Tooth, tooth.
- You're going so fast, there's no way we'll find tooth. I like the, like, the, like one of those, like that, where it's just,
like
, adding some texture to it. I feel like with a real,
like, when we make him white, like a tooth, like real pearlescent. I feel like, ew, no, too much. I like that, actually. - [Griffin] I do too, yeah. Complexion color temp.
- Now wait, don't go too far down this list because you're, we didn't hit mouth and teeth and jaw.
- Oh, you're right, you're right!
- Mouth and teeth and jaw. - [Griffin] Scale way up. - [Justin] Way up. - Underbite, overbite?
- Check. - [Griffin] Give me both. Make them b
oth come out.
- Combo! That feels like the teeth are
trying to escape. I love that. (Justin groans) (both laughing) - Why is he sad again?
- Poor guy! - [Griffin] He's got happy eyes. - [Justin] He's not sad. I feel like he's pouting.
- Aw, shit. Not anymore!
- Like, kind of a sexy pout. - [Griffin] What if he's just
pretty happy all the time? (both laughing) Shit, dude, okay, I gotta
see the teeth on the-- (both laughing) - [Justin] Perfect, perfect. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Perfect! It's
weird that the teeth
aren't gonna take any notes from the lips.
- No! - [Justin] They didn't even
look at the lips' paper to see what they were maybe doing. - [Griffin] I would love
to see if we could see both the teeth--
- Oh, that's better. I like that better, so
much better, Griffin. - [Griffin] You do? - [Justin] Kinda yeah. - [Griffin] I would love to
be able to see both of them. I don't know what we've done--
- Maybe a balance, yeah. - [Griffin] Okay, but can
we still get teeth? (laughs) -
[Justin] Well, I guess, I mean, presumably there's teeth. - [Griffin] No, they're
in there somewhere, Juice.
- Can you get in there, Griff? - [Griffin] I don't think we can. I wonder if we adjust dermaesthetic again. - [Justin] I'm actually starting to feel like we want smoothness. - [Griffin] We want smoothness? - [Justin] I feel like
maybe we do, I-- (laughs) - Should this--
- He's our bad boy tooth. - [Griffin] That's cool, too. Yeah, I mean, he got
his fuckin' nose pierced against the elder
tooth's,
against the the wisdom teeth, their wishes.
- (laughs) The wisdom teeth! It's possible that they don't have teeth and that's why they take
tooth care so seriously. - [Griffin] It would
be fucked up, actually, if they had teeth. - [Justin] Yeah, it's
weirder if they have teeth because they're like, "You
don't even appreciate it. You have teeth. Don't you
know how kickass that is? Don't you know what I would do for teeth?" - [Griffin] "I would
do anything for teeth." Tooth check. - [Just
in] No teeth yet.
Good, perfect, good. Staying on task.
(both laughing) - Fuck yes!
- This is within spec. No teeth here! - [Griffin] Scars. Shit, he does look cool, though! It's a bad boy tooth! (laughs) - [Justin] Oh, oh man! That mustache, that top
mustache is excellent. God, that's cool, too. - [Griffin] That looks
so fuckin' cool, man. - [Justin] Griffin, if
we're not going with teeth, the size of the mouth is
starting to distract me. Oh man, but that's cool. - [Griffin] That looks cool. I
don't know why you don't like that. - No, I like it a lot, man.
- I don't know why you're working against me and the audience and not liking that.
- That's actually so cool. - [Griffin] That's so fuckin' cool, man.
- God, this guy rules! No, I want the other one.
I like, it's too exciting. I want that, like--
- Again, you don't like a more subtle dusting? - [Justin] No, I want that fuckin' Rutherford B. Hayes nonsense. There we go! Yeah, man. I want someone who looks like it took a half hour
to
take his picture. Maybe he's a wisdom tooth-- - Maybe he is the, yes.
- But, like, broke free, like he realized that, like,
the teachings were not, like, cool ones. That's, Griffin, can
I say? That kicks ass. - [Griffin] This is the wisdom too. - [Justin] That looks so cool. - [Griffin] That looks
actually really fuckin' sick. - [Justin] Here's the thing, Griffin. - [Griffin] Mhm? - [Justin] I was wrong
about the facial hair. It's so good.
- It's the story. It's the story of the guy.
- That it m
akes the story and you lose the story
of him being a tooth. - [Griffin] Yeah. - Yeah, sorry, I am sorry.
- I'm glad, no! - [Justin] I'm sorry, I'm sorry. - [Griffin] I'm glad that, what
did we do to his poor lips? Hold on one moment. I think I gave him a lipstick
base that is not flattering. The hair on the lips isn't good. - [Justin] It's bad to
me, yeah, it's bad to me. - [Griffin] It's bad on me. - [Justin] It's bad on
him, it's bad to me. It feels bad to me. - [Griffin] It's bad with us. - [
Justin] It's bad at us. That's okay. That's a little bit of hair on the top. (both laughing) - Sometimes.
- Yes, sometimes it goes like that. Now we can adjust the
body a little bit more. - [Justin] Okay. Oh, I really like the thin, I think the really angular makes the head really pop.
- Makes it pop. Yeah, I agree. What's his background? What
are we working with here? - [Justin] File not found. - [Griffin] File not found. Yeah, okay. We can get rid of some of these. Unless, do we want the guy--
- I mean alien DNA is a slam dunk.
- Is a slam dunk, yeah. - [Justin] We are an alien
species, that's 100%. - [Griffin] Okay. - [Justin] They're worshiped,
I don't think it's funny. It might be funny to have
parents, I don't know. - [Griffin] I would love to
see what my parents look like. - [Justin] Okay. - [Griffin] And then wanted. - [Justin] Mm, wanted's boring. I mean, the whole game's boring, I can't-- (both laughing) Realize I can't limit it like that. What's serpents embrace out of curio
sity. - [Griffin] Grew up
worshiping the great serpent. That's the tongue. The Bicuspis people call the
tongue The Great Serpent. - [Justin] Oh, okay, good! - [Griffin] Wouldn't you? - [Justin] I would, absolutely. - [Griffin] All right, we need a name. - [Justin] The Wisdom Tooth? - [Griffin] The Wisdom Tooth is a title. - [Justin] Okay. - [Griffin] I mean, Mole, Mole, Molar?
- Molar with two R's is kinda cool. (laughs) - [Griffin] Well, let's just do this. We'll take the word molar
so we know
it's the root and then we can just sorta
change it one thing at a time. - [Justin] Molar System? - [Griffin] Nah. - [Justin] No, I didn't think so either. Sorry, my kid said that. - Molar--
- Mike? - [Griffin] Molar Mike. (both laughing) - [Justin] Hey kids! It's me! Yeah. - Shit!
- Cowards! Cut the comma. Make "the" a "da". We're good! (laughs) Toot! (laughs) Alright, Todd, you're the boss! (both laughing) No, okay, Griffin, get rid
of the da make it a "a". - [Griffin] No, I think it's
just Mol
ar Mike da Wisdom Toot. (both laughing) - [Justin] Okay, it's
Molar Mike da Wisdom Toot! Welcome to Earth! No, wait, Jemison, my bad. - [Griffin] All right, let, I, fuck. Now we have to play Starfield. All right, I downloaded a bunch of mods and a lot of them probably didn't work. That one did. (both laughing) Oh my God. - [Justin] What did you choose, Griffin? - I fucked up!
- Did you choose the floor, Griff?
- I fucked up. - [Justin] Did you maybe choose the floor? Guys, you're gonna love
this
. Welcome to existence! You're gonna love it. - [Griffin] I have gone ahead and I have made a worthy steed. - [Justin] Did you, like, give
it all the latest weapons? - I mean--
- Or were you more, was this more of an
aesthetic sort of project? - [Griffin] I mean, it
was largely aesthetic-led. I got a lot of haters. (laughs) - [Justin] Yeah, the whole galaxy is fucking pissed, Griffin! - [Griffin] We're in the ship, fuck! (Justin guffawing) Wait, where's mine? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!
(spooky music)
Comments
At last, we are once again allowed to ask: βI wonder what Toddβs boys are up to?β
Thereβs always enough time between episodes that itβs almost always appropriate to say WEβRE SO BACK
Fungalore heard my wish.
"I have an uncle who works at Todd" is one of the funniest jokes Griffin has ever told
Oh my fucking god WE'RE BACK!
A soul still burns.
the naming of the wisdom toot made me cry real salty tears
G A R F I E L D
I watched a bunch of Monster Factory yesterday, so Iβm excited for this. Also, at no point should a character creation be called βtoothsomeβ which doubles my excitement for this
And when the world (me) needed them most.. they returned
I will never forgive you for discarding the big beautiful beard, that shit was perfect
Every day MF comes out is the best day of the year. Itβs like a birthday, both in frequency and in hype.
Monster factory is at its best when by the end the boys have created the most buckwild lore to justify their sins
I swear to Fungalore I angrily shouted the word "TODD" so many times while playing Starfield just like Griffin always does XD
"Aw fuck now we have to play Starfield." That should be embossed on the box.
I'd just dipped into the well of old Monster Factory vids the other day, bless these boys. π Sudden uploads are such a joy, like gifts without an occasion.
that sneak peek at the start sent actual fear through my body, good golly
this is where the rubber hits the face
felt the Todd Howardβs siren call and so it feels right to say HELL YEAH WEβRE BACK BOYS
πππFungalor heard our wishπππ
