Just in time for the Big Game I decided to open my Captain America Civil War Hot Wheels. I certainly wore the right shirt today!!!! As I post this the Patriots have won the Biggest Game of the year! That is amazing. I did not get to see it in real time. My feed was stuttered and delayed. Some of my co-workers got it live and so I experienced the game through their frustration and adulation. That was incredible. Well, I’ll let my video talk about the toys.
I caught up with a good friend tonight over dinner at the Outback Steakhouse. I have not been to Outback in a long time. However, I haven’t hung out with my friend in way longer. It was nice to get a chance to have dinner, just the two of us. When there is no distractions we can talk about whatever we want and actually finish thoughts.
I popped into the Toys R Us and found the Admiral Ackbar Hot Wheels Character Car. I like the design that they decided to use for him. You can see him in the video below.
I found some great new Hot Wheels cars today and wanted to also unbox a couple of Funko Pops that I found. Target has an exclusive Doctor Strange in Astral form figure. There is also a Walmart exclusive Doctor Strange figure. I have yet to find that one. Speaking of Funko Pops, I had bought a Captain Cassian Andor figure a while ago and learned that there is also an exclusive Hot Topic and Target version of this character. I of course cannot pronounce Captain Andor’s name and probably won’t until I see Rogue One. I certainly can’t wait to see Rogue One, either.
I also found The Punisher Hot Wheels Character car. There are a still a few more of the new releases to find but I’m getting closer. Doctor Strange is one of the ones that I’m missing. The car is a wicked hot rod. It has dual rows of 5 exhaust pipes that look like the barrel of a machine gun. When you look at the car from the top down you see the signature skull of The Punisher.
I also saw a Batman TV Series car at Target. I picked up that up because I liked the retro look of it. When I took it out of the box I noticed that there were flat matte flames on the car. They look great but I don’t think that they were on the original car.
