#SummerOfMarvel with Marvel Super Hero Mashers


Photo-A-Day #3783

As part of the #SummerOfMarvel program we received a couple of great sets of Super Hero Mashers. We received a MARVEL SUPER HERO MASHERS Figure and also the MARVEL SUPER HERO MASHERS ULTIMATE AVENGERS Set. We also had some previous sets from other events and I recently bought four characters at Big Lots ($5 each!), so we have a bunch of parts to use. In addition to the toys we also got comic book cover frame to user to showcase our creations. I opened this right before going to work for the weekend and so we didn’t get a chance to play. I did ask Eva to gather up all the Super Hero Mashers pieces that we already had and she took it upon herself to create some new characters and have my wife photograph them to send to me. I am very happy that she got into this project so much. Continue reading #SummerOfMarvel with Marvel Super Hero Mashers

DVD Review: Miles From Tomorrowland – Let’s Rocket

Andrew with his Miles from Tomorrowland DVD and Blast Board Flshlight

Miles from Tomorrowland has become a fan favorite cartoon in our home. Before the show even launched I had the privilge of interviewing the creator Sascha Paladino. That was such a fun interview and it got me fired up for this show. My excitement spilled over to the kids and we began watching the show together. Andrew is often saying “Oh Craters!” when he’s upset with something. He even says that things are “Blastastic!” when he is happy. So, the show is a part of our lives.

When we had the opportunity to review first DVD for “Miles from Tomorrowland” I had to take it. Opinions of the show are 100% our own. We have had many good experiences watching this show and love the guest stars. I’ve even tweeted with Sascha and Cullen McCarthy. There is a great message about family in this show. The family unit works together to overcome some amazing obstacles. They function well as both a family and also as a crew. The show is also very funny. This DVD which came out on August 11th has a great selection of episodes. I look forward to re-watching them with the kids. More about the DVD below.
