Funko Pop Transformers Bumblebee and Target Exclusive ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #00734

I was very excited to find out that Funko was making Pop! versions of some of my favorite Transformers characters. I pre-ordered all of them on Amazon and then found a Target exclusive version of Bumblebee. The Target version is the Chevy Camaro version and the regular is Bumblebee’s VW Bug version.

These will go in a collection with Optimus Prime, Soundwave, Jazz and Megatron. I was going to shoot all of them but the Megatron one is still on the way. Once he arrives I will see about getting my originals out to shoot with them, although I never got Megatron as a kid because he was a gun. I never even picked up a re-issue of it because his toy was always loose and didn’t stand well. I do like that in the latest series he is a tank, that makes much more sense.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.
