Quick Vlog Update and TMNT MegaBloks

More Gummies
Photo-A-Day #4307

I went to Toys R Us today and found six Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sets from MEGABloks. These were of the classic 80’s/90’s cartoon characters. There was one for each Turtle and then 2 larger sets with Bebop and Rocksteady. The six sets fit together to form some sort of diorama. They were all on clearance and I had a $5 Toys R Us credit plus 10% off today so that made my purchase only $24 bucks or $4 a set for all 6 sets. Yes, I just wrote a math problem in this description. Sheesh.

I also received some Transformers comic books that I did not have in my collection. I am trying to find all of the remaining comics from the original 80 comic run. I had stopped at number 59 and so got 60, 62 and 63 today. I’m going to be on the lookout for the rest to get the last 17 to finish the collection.

Tonight I went to Brian’s to film SteamDads and also Built from Bricks. We ran out of time to film a show where we built anything but I recorded Brian doing an update of his Brick Island. This is a LEGO city that he is creating in his garage and it is awesome. He’s been making some great stuff.

Speaking of making stuff the two of us made some more Gummies for SteamDads. We made three batches of them so that we would have a bunch to show and also to do some funny stuff with. You can see both shows next week. I have to get them produced, first.

Review – TMNT Half-Shell Heroes Headquarters Playset

Andrew and the Half-Shell Headquarters
Photo-A-Day #4243

We received a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Half-Shell Heroes Half-Shell Headquarters to play with and review. Opinions are 100% our own.

Andrew has been asking me for this toy for a while. He enjoys the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and knows that I am a big fan. He can name all of the turtles and was excited that he got a Leonardo figure at McDonald’s last night on his birthday. I had been meaning to switch out some of Andrew’s toys for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Half-Shell Heroes that he has. Well, I did not get that done in time for his birthday but today we were able to clean up the toy area and make the switch. I’m glad that we did because Andrew loves the set. He and Eva were having so much fun flinging all the figures off the Headquarters. There are a ton of fun little play areas. Here is what you get with the Half-Shell Headquarters Playset

  • The Half-Shell Headquarters Playset, part of the Half Shell Heroes collection that’s designed specifically for preschoolers, has four levels of Ninja Turtle fun – with each level packed with surprises and new features to discover!
  • The transforming playset unfolds to reveal new play areas, including street level trap doors that lead to different areas of the Ninja Turtles’ lair, a slide in each hand including one that’s a manhole-popping secret entrance, and the playset’s foot turns into a jail cell!
  • With this many transformations, twists and turns, kids can either guide the Turtles to safety or send Shredder and his gang right to jail!
  • Includes Raphael and Bebop 2.5″ action figures (compatible with most Half Shell Heroes action figures)
  • Recommended Age: 3+
  • Suggested Retail Price: $59.99
