Have you Heard of the HyperRace?


Photo-A-Day #3284

I received two Air Hogs remote control toys the Hyper Actives 5 and the HyperTrax. Air Hogs is doing an online contest to find out which of the two vehicles are faster. That is why they sent them to me, so I could perform my own race. So, I took a couple of my co-workers down to a room to see which was the fastest. As I expected, the Hyper Actives 5 was faster, but the HyperTrax was not far behind at all. I took some video and we did a few races. I think we need to try again, though. So I brought in another one of my older Air Hogs HyperActive vehicles and we’ll see if that one is a contender or not.

Here’s what Air Hogs Says about each of the vehicles

Enchanted Star Strike

I found Enchanted Star Strike at Walmart today. So that means of the current Skylanders toys that have been released, I have them all. There are two more regular ones to be released and two more special edition ones to be released. That is.. until the next game is released.

I may be attending a special event later this month for Skylanders. Will I learn about the next game? Will it be something else? Time will tell.
