Super Mario Maker 3DS and Guardians Vol. 2 LEGO Sets

It was a day of play around here. the kids and I got together and built a bunch of Modibots and played with those. We were going to try and do some stop motion but it is hard to do that with a kid who never stops and who is always in motion. I also couldn’t find a really good program to help with the stop motion. I tried the Stikbot studio but it still is not the best option.

This morning I popped into Target and there I saw two Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 LEGO sets. I had to pick them up. I didn’t grab all of them when the first movie came out and I am kicking myself now. I noticed that they are certainly going to capitalize on the Baby Groot character because he is in both of the sets. I am looking forward to opening these sets and building. Maybe we will do it on Built from Brick and maybe I will do my own build. I do not know.

Today I also backed a great Kickstarter from the people who brought us Modarri. The new one is called Enduro an the vehicles look amazing. You can back the kickstarter at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/thoughtfulltoys/enduro-toy-cars-built-for-tough-drivers

Also, the fine folks from 360 PR sent me a copy of Super Mario Maker 3DS totally out of the blue. what a great surprise! the kids are loving making courses of their own.

Thoughts on the Nintendo Switch & I Found Super Mario Hot Wheels

MY Super Mario Hot Wheels Finds

I know that I am way behind in talking about this but I’m excited about the Nintendo Switch. This is the next gaming system from Nintendo and is coming out in March 2017. Can March get her sooner? Please!

This looks like a really amazing system. I love the Wii U and especially the Gamepad. This has been great to play for the past five years. I bought it so that I could play Skylanders Giants and so many other games. I can play while the TV is on so I can do two things at once.

I was playing a lot tonight. I am currently playing Skylanders Imaginators and having a great time. I made a couple of new Skylanders today and also opened some of the mystery treasure chests that contain nine pieces for creating Imaginators. I am still not sure why you would buy these but I got a couple to make a video, of course, I did not have time at all to actually put the video together. We made parts of one but I didn’t complete it. I need to compile them all.

Speaking of not completing something. I only found 5 out of the 6 Super Mario Hot Wheels Character cars. I was unable to find Yoshi. I was going to show you them when I found all six but I ended up playing video games all night while watching TV with Allison. So, I made this very quick vlog today.
