I am always, always, always on the lookout for the next thing from Skylanders. This week comes with a pre-Toy Fair announcement from Activision about some upcoming variant figures and also some partnerships with companies like General Mills and Crayola.

I interviewed the creator of Miles from Tomorrowland today via phone. We talked all about the show and I will post up our interview very soon.

I recorded another Dad.fm podcast tonight with Adam and Jeff. We talked about my interview with Sascha Paladino and also my recent Ozobot review. The episode is up at Dad.fm

Tonight was tough because I am full on sick and the city came by around 6:45pm with snowplows and completely buried the driveways and negated the paths I made on the sidewalks. Surprise, surprise that school would be called for the next two days because sidewalks weren’t safe.
