I’ve been talking about it for a while but I finally boxed up my Skylanders, Disney Infinity and LEGO Dimensions figures. Those have been moved to the attic and I started bringing down some of my Transformers figures. I started with the crossover figures like the Megatron/ H.I.S.S. Tank, Bumblebee/A.W.E. Striker and Soundwave/Thunder Machine. I also have a crossover figure that was Transformers and X-Men and also Back to the Future. At this point those are the only figures I still purchase. I also purchase any version of Wheeljack that I can find. There are two new ones coming out that I am excited to get when they are released. One of them is hard to find and I am hoping I can pick one up on Sunday. This is a figure that has Wheeljack in his original Cybertronian form. And there is also a Transformers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figure coming in October.
I’ll have more updates when I put more figures in the case.
My favorite book series is a series of books by author Shayne Silvers. Shayne Silvers has several great characters but the main story revolves around a wizard named Nate Temple. Shayne has written over 35 books since 2018 or so. I started reading (listening on Audible) over a year ago. I finished relistening to all of the books this morning and I’m starting to red the one book that is not yet on Audible: Boilermaker. The good thing is that this book continues after what had happened in the last book that I listened to, Snakebite.
In the books Nate has a surly Alicorn named Grimm and from all descriptions of Grimm I thought that this LEGO Alicorn from the Dreamz sets looked exactly like I would picture Grimm. Although he has feathers with red tips and I;’m not sure if I can recreate that to make it look closer to that look. I also think the character on Grimm’s back looked very much like Nate with his Horseman of Hope mask.
