I have this framed painting on my desk. I got it a few years ago when I met comedian Mike Schmidt. It is a painting of me and little Schmidtty jumping up and down in wet cement. When I was taking photos around the desk I liked how Tree Rex lined up with me in the background.
Speaking of Skylanders. I’ll be on the hunt again tomorrow to find the rest of Wave 3. I have one more figure to find, Tuff Luck and also need to pick up Winterfest Lob-Star. I like that there have been some Christmas figures produced and there is this fun video of the Skylanders singing the 12 Days of Christmas.
I received a package from Activision today. Inside there were four Skylanders Wave 3 figures and a couple of additional figures in the box. I was pretty excited because Wave 3 has a character that I’ve been waiting for since I first saw him, Ka-Boom. Ka-Boom is a cool looking character. He looks like a giant barbarian/viking who ripped a cannon of of its mount and now carries it around as his Traptanium weapon.
The box also contained Blastermind, a Magic Trapmaster, the one element that had not been released (barring the light and dark elements). There were also two core characters, a Fire Element named Trail Blazer and a Magic Element called Cobra Cadabra. I am looking forward to getting a chance to play with these guys. I wasn’t able to today before work. But I did make this video.
