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

Guardians LEGO
Photo-A-Day #4333

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.

Getting Creative in the Kitchen with the Loot Crate Marvel Gear + Goods Super Science Crate

Marvel Gear and Goods Loot Crate - Super Science
Photo-A-Day #4332

I am an affiliate and reviewer of Loot Crate. This Marvel Gear + Goods Box was sent to me for free to review. Opinions are 100% our own.

The Marvel Gear + Goods came with some great stuff in it like a Black Panther Apron, Modok Ice Cube Maker, Hank Pym Beaker, Ultron Pin and the best piece a set of 4 snack plates depicting Totally Awesome Hulk, Ant-Man, Spider-Man and Iron Man.

We had a lot of fun showing everyone what was in the Crate. Andrew and Allison even made a plate of Squirrel Girl’s Unbeatable Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies. They certainly look good on the Ant-Man plate or even the Spider-Man plate. Even though Andrew thinks plates are boring, see the video. He was excited when I told him that he can use these plates for his lunch each day. He found that to be more exciting.

I decided that instead of just making an ice cube in the shape of Modok that I would get out my gummie making equipment and make some lemon gummie mix to fill the Modok Mold. The back of the mold came out great but the front, not so much. I can tell you exactly what happened. I filled up the mold and then tried to move it. I squished it and out came a bunch of mixture so there wasn’t enough all through the mold. I’ll have to make a better one sometime.

The whole crate is really fantastic, so many special items for the kitchen for any Marvel fan! If you are so inclined to start a subscription to the Loot Crate Marvel Gear + Goods then place use my affiliate link and I think my discount code of BENSPARK can help you out as well.
