Free Comic Book Day 2024 ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #01944

Today was May The Fourth and it was a good day for Free Comic Book Day. When I got home from work I took the last piece of Ashbringer off the 3D Printer and put it together to show the size of it. I sent it off to my Sensei and he was very pleased. I’ve got to cut the dowel to the right size. He’ll put everything together himself. I am thinking that I may make one for myself, it is a very cool looking sword.

Over at Free Comic Book day we picked up a few books ,looked around and took a photo with the cosplayers. Eva got a full set of books and I got 5 books myself. Andy found one book but wasn’t that interested overall. I’m hoping to find more books that they would enjoy.

Out of the books that I got the best one by far was the Energeon Universe one which had 3 mini stories that went along with the three main series from Skybound, namely Transformers, Void Rivals and G.I. Joe. These stories actually fit right into what has been happening with these series so well. I’m actually going to the store weekly to get my books now because they are so good.

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.
