Have You Found Scarlet Ninjini


Photo-A-Day #2953

Today I came home from picking up Eva to find that there was a package waiting for me. Inside that package was a very rare Skylanders Giant, Scarlet Ninjini! The figure is mine to keep and I have no obligations to review it, but I wanted to give you my 100% personal opinion of the figure. I was so excited because I had heard that it would not be released here until May 19th. I certainly hope that is the case and that Scarlet Ninjini isn’t just limited to the overseas market because that is where people are getting her at this time. It is good to see that she’ll be released in the US as well. I made a little video about Scarlet Ninjini.

I also took a few comparison shots as well.

Ninjini and Scarlet Ninjini

As you can see Scarlet Ninjini is more of a Teal skinned figure with a red costume and dark hair with gold swords. I like the look of her very much, but I am more of a fan of her original coloring. Maybe I just like her with red hair over the dark hair. Scarlet Ninjini is a great addition to our Skylanders collection.

You can find out more about Skylanders and Skylanders Giants through social media channels and the Skylanders website. You can follow Skylanders on Twitter and on Facebook and there are fun videos on YouTube as well.

When I Try to Mow


Photo-A-Day #2952

I bought a new mower a few weeks ago. I picked up some new gas and was prepping the mower today for quite a long frustrating time. The frustrating thing was that I could not get the oil cap off to add the oil. The instruction manual showed a different looking mower and I could not find the listing for the particular oil cap that I had. The thing is, I could see it. I just could not get any sort of grip on it to open it up. I went and got my mechanics toolbox and tried to find the right size so that I could find something to grip the cap. Finally I came across a 16mm wrench that was able to loosen it enough so that I could loosen it the rest of the way with my hands.

By the time I finally got it all filled up with gas and oil I had just enough time to mow the spot right next to the garage. That was yesterday. Today I went to try and mow the front yard and as soon as I got the mower to the fence door the drops began to fall, and fall hard.
