MEGA Bloks WoW sets on Clearance at Target


Photo-A-Day #3018

Occasionally I’ll drop over to Target and I walk the aisles to see what new toys are there. I also keep my eye out for that distinctive red and white price tag on clearance items. I usually find some pretty good deals. This MEGA Bloks World of Warcraft set caught my eye because of the wolf-like character. Add to that a Griffin as his mode of transportation and I was sold. Make the whole thing 50% off and even better.

I have mostly been interested in the MEGA Bloks Skylanders Giants sets but occasionally I do want to pick up something from their other lines. I really like the look of the World of Warcraft stuff that MEGA Bloks puts out. The detail on the figures is great and they are very pose-able. Then when I look at the HALO inspired sets I really like what I’m seeing for the vehicles. They are detailed and look great. The set that looks best to me is the COVERT OPS: UNSC WOLVERINE. This is one tough looking machine, tons of missiles and more. I have only played HALO when it first came out and I loved riding all over the place in the warthog. I think the Wolverine would be even better.

Most of the time I just pick up these things if they look cool the SWIFT GRYPHON was one of those things that looked cool to me. If I played WoW that would be the type of figure that I’d want to be when I played.

Review: The Littlest Angel

The Littlest Angel

The other night we watched The Littlest Angel as a family. This was an adorable little story about a Little Angel who ends up in Heaven a little too soon. He is homesick for the life he had before and wants to return to Earth to get a box of treasures that he had hidden in his home. The poor little guy is just so homesick that he keeps messing up in Angel academy and ends up on the wrong side of his teacher Angel Alvin.

The movie was cute and based on the beloved classic of the fifteenth best-selling children’s book of all time. The story is a very cute one and teaches a valuable lesson. Eva enjoyed it very much. We enjoyed it as a family movie and will watch it again for the holidays. I love sharing cute movies with good messages with Eva. She’s such a sensitive little soul and I want to show her movies that she can both enjoy and learn something from. I don’t want to give anything away about the story because I loved it and had never heard it before so the ending was touching.
