Ding! This one was a long time coming. If things work out I should have a very big The Secrets of the Beano club video out before the end of the year. Special Thanks to @CDownInk doing a really amazing job with the Thumbnail, really capturing and modernizing that Beano feel. Dong!
My dad actually used to be a member of the Dennis fan club back in 1983. I actually still have the wallet and the badges it came with The gnasher badge still has its eye's thankfully
This is so insane & I love it! Came here from your video on the Powerpuff Girls pilots & these videos on such charming British comics are quite interesting for someone like me.
I'm glad you enjoyed them 😊 I have been told their too Niche so nice to know that others can still enjoy them. The powerpuff girl video is so early for me. I am surprised you even stuck around after watching that one 😅
I think I've got my original fan club badge stored away somewhere but i don't recall the 80 Years of fun replica of the fan club wallet being that bad. Ill have to find my original and compare them like you did! Anyway, excellent video as always 🙂
@LukeNyul I was shocked by it, wasnt until I had them side by side I noticed how bad the hair was and the really poor printing quality. Makes me think they don't have the original template and had to photo copy a certificate
Being in the US, my only knowledge of these Beano characters is from your videos, but I noticed that the Walter character looks very similar to US Dennis the Menace's dad. I wonder if the difference in quality between the old and new versions was due to outsourcing? Were the old ones made domestically and the new ones made in China or some other country where they pay the employees barely anything. Couldn't you buy replacement googly eyes for your vintage badge in an arts and crafts store? But maybe it would gnaw at you that the replacement Gnasher eyes weren't the original ones.
@KasumiKenshirou yea, I think that has to be it. Wherever they have them made now just doesn't have the proper material, and yes, it would knaw at me, haha. Glad you are still watching the videos 😀
@@theashtubereviews it was golden splat before it and then changed to #sobeano and then changed back into the golden splat. I’m pretty sure #sobeano was to get with the times and didn’t age well so they changed it back
I recently met the other last surviving member of the Dennis the Menace Fan Club at the funeral of the third last. "Ding" I told him. As his last words before he fell to his knees before me with the last breath in his life he exhaled "..Dong"
Do you have any older beano issues scanned in I can look at? I want to use the beano for a school project in linguistics and political correctness but they're quite hard to find online
@danielmcgrail3970 no sorry just the ones I scsn in as I go for the videos. It's very hard to find them online. I always have to buy old issues through ebay

Wow that cover looks cool
@@TheBeanoisMyFavComic I have the artist tagged in the description :)
As a person with the fan club myself, it looks like its been through some times.
The Gansher badges have certainly had their ups and downs :)
Impeccable quality as always mate thank you!
@CommanderCummington thanks man. Was hoping to do the desperate Dan club as well, but the wallet and badges seem to have gotten lost in the mail

@aaronmccarthy875 it's so nice you still have them. I hope they are in better condition than mine hah

Even though I'm not as Beano mad as I once was, I still watch every single Beano video you make in full.
@@JoshProductions07 haha, glad you still enjoy them :) I'll keep them coming as long as I can
@@theashtubereviews I'm hoping one day I'll be Beano mad again.
Wow this video is really well made I miss the old look of the original Dennis the Menace fan club keep up the great work ! 😎👍

Haha, hope it doesn't disapoint 😅
Did you know there was "desperate Dan fan club"?
@lordbritannic Yes, I want to do a video on it, I never had the wallets and can't go into as much detail, but it's something I will.look.to do
@@theashtubereviews cool. i couldn't find them either.
@lordbritannic I could just do something with pictures but if I can I would.like to have the physical wallet
@lordbritannic i found them. It looks like there will be another fan club episode in the future 🎉
@@theashtubereviews cool. I've rejoined the Beano fan club. D.i.n.g.
As a member (because of winning the golden #sobeano (that’s what it was called at the time)) it’s change a lot
@Aplays996 wow I never heard of SoBeano before, interesting
@@theashtubereviews it was golden splat before it and then changed to #sobeano and then changed back into the golden splat. I’m pretty sure #sobeano was to get with the times and didn’t age well so they changed it back
@@theashtubereviews btw my issue was 4045 of young me if ur wondering
@Aplays996 might be worth making a video of some day
@@theashtubereviews good idea
Aight let’s see how many people joined the fan club, D.I.N.G

11:23 i think i have covid (sorry i saw something obvious that made me think i was seeing things)
12:16 stop you're giving him hope Ash 😂
Also Euan is pronounced "You-Wan", "Wan" being like "Ran"... you could imagine why his name is funny to a lot of people 😅
Sounds kinda Welsh to me 😅
14:54 I am lucky I am unable to jump those hoops. I am being held back by dinner on the table.
