Today is Force Friday II. This is the day when there are new Star Wars toys being released. I went to Target after the gym to see what was there. Target actually had two sections for the Star Wars Toys. they were in with the toys and then there was a separate section where they put the seasonal items and there were Star Wars toys, food and clothing. I did not go at midnight as there wasn’t really anything I had my heart set on. I collect Funko Pops but have not been collecting as many lately. I am sticking with the smaller stuff so I picked up some of the new Star Wars Character Cars from Hot Wheels. Here are the cars that were out in The Last Jedi packaging:

1st Appearance: BB-9E™ (Star Wars: The Last Jedi™)
1st Appearance: Elite Praetorian Guard™ (Star Wars: The Last Jedi™)
1st Appearance: First Order Executioner™ (Star Wars: The Last Jedi™)
1st Appearance: Rey, Jedi Training (Star Wars: The Last Jedi™)
New Deco: Captain Phasma™ (Star Wars: The Last Jedi™)
New Deco: Finn™ (Star Wars: The Last Jedi™)

I picked up all of them except for Captain Phasma. I did not know it was a new deco, I will have to go back. I picked up Chewbacca because I thought it was smaller then previous ones and that is not correct. I will probably return that and return Rey because there is a Two-Pack that should be out with Rey and Luke. There is also one with Kylo Ren and Snoke. Kylo Ren is the same as he was in The Force Awakens. There were other cars in the Last Jedi packaging like a Stormtrooper, Darth Vader and the aforementioned Chewbacca.

I also picked up the Star Wars LEGO Resistance Transport Pod. I got this because it was the smallest of the LEGO sets and it looked like a cool ship to build. I’m looking forward to building it. You can see everything I picked up in the video below and then after that I have a giveaway for a copy of the Star Wars Rebels Season 3 Blu-ray.

Subtle Pink Rose with Water Droplets


Photo-A-Day #3415

Eva has been in Zoo Camp all week and today I walked her to camp and took my camera along as well. I had the Samsung NX3000 with me and I put the 18-200mm lens. This camera forces me to use the manual focus because I’ve gotten so used to the touch screens on all of my other Samsung cameras. This camera does not have a touch screen so I manually focus. It was fun to get out and use the manual focus on these subjects, which were roses in a garden over at the zoo. It was early enough in the day that they still had water droplets on them.
