A Pit Stop with Themed Hot Wheels Cars

Another Sunday full of sleep. Because of yesterday’s few hours of sleep I came home right away and went to bed. When I got up I had dinner with the family and then recorded a quick video. I had picked up a few Hot Wheels cars this past week and some of the ones I picked up earlier than that. I was at Toys R Us this week and when I was there I saw that they had a special edition set of Peanuts. This was a collection of the 5 cars that I found a month ago. I was there at Toys R Us to find a Skylanders Imaginators Legendary Creation Crystal. I did not find the Light Element one.

There were supposed to be 40 of them on the floor according to the person I always connect with. He looked around but couldn’t find them. While I was looking with him a shopped came by with one of the Peanuts cars in her cart. I told her about the special set of 5 of them. She went back to get that instead. I was told that I should work at Toys R Us because I know where everything is. I probably would if I had the time.

I also went to Best Buy this week and found the Kid Icarus (Pit) amiibo. This was a short packed one from way back and no one had it. Best Buy had a bunch of them and so I grabbed one. I used to play Kid Icarus all the time when I was a kid. So now that is the last amiibo that I really wanted to have in my collection.

The last thing that I had was a Daffy Duck Hot Wheels character car. They had a ton of them and I cannot find any information about the other five characters. I’m not sure if it is a Toys R Us exclusive or something like that where one is released every week or something more. I like the Daffy Duck car and am really looking forward to seeing what the Tasmanian Devil character car will look like.

Today LEGO Dimensions released a whole bunch of new sets as part of Wave 6. Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment sent me a couple of packs for free to review. They are the Ghostbusters Story Pack and the Mission Impossible Level Pack. I also pre-ordered the B.A. Baracus Fun Pack and the Harry Potter Team Pack. I was planning on getting everything up and ready to go today and do some unboxing videos but I forgot that I had to update the software and that takes some time. Once I did that then I had to download the level packs. Because Tuesdays are crazy busy all around I did not end up with videos made.

Once we got home from all the errands I played a little on the Wii U Gamepad while the kids watched TV. I think I have to go and play with the full TV on next time so I can see everything. I seemed to be missing out on some things. So, tomorrow I’ll be making the videos. In the meantime you can see my vlog from today and after the jump you can read about all the new things with LEGO Dimensions Year 2.
