My LEGO Dimensions Obsession Continues

My LEGO Dimensions Collection

My LEGO Dimensions Collection continues to grow. I went out and picked up all of the first year sets. The last two are sitting at Walmart awaiting my pick up. I have yet to open so many of them, I’m doing a one at a time to stretch things out and also let Andrew go and build them. He loves building them. We’ll probably build a bunch tomorrow because the little guy is sick.

Andrew had been pretty tired yesterday when we went to Karate class. He fell asleep on the way over. Today he was a little out of it when we went to to lunch with my Dad. Andrew wouldn’t talk to him, then he laid down on the bench and said that he was cold. He refused to eat. I chalked it up to being tired. He fell asleep a second after we left Bliss where we had lunch with my father. Then he slept for an hour and a half after that. He didn’t eat dinner either and so we checked him out and he had a fever. No school for him tomorrow.

I also received my Kickstarter rewards from the most recent Modarri campaign. I opted for the DELUX S2 MUSCLE SET which has a wicked fastback Muscle car in green. I’m also part of the Quarter Car Club, which is a way to get a quarter of a car each month. It is a special Kickstarter car. I like funding these guys because their product is solid.

I am also going to unbox some Funko Pops for Arrow and Flash soon. Arrow, Flash and Black Canary. I love those shows. Can’t wait till they return.

And speaking of LEGO Dimensions, you know from the first paragraph, I have pre-ordered some sets like the A-Team Fun Pack and the Harry Potter Team Pack, but I also ordered the E.T. Fun Pack. E.T. is featured in the latest, Meet That Hero! video. Supergirl, who is an exclusive to the Sony Playstation 4 Starter Pack. I’d really like to get that figure. I’d also like to get my hands on the E3 exclusive Green Arrow figure. That figure is voiced by Chris Hardwick! How cool is that. Anyway, here is the video for E.T. in LEGO Dimensions.

Trepidation Awaits

Trepidation

Andrew’s day was all about starting off full of nervousness and trepidation. We had Open House at his Kindergarten class this morning and he wasn’t feeling that great about it. The feelings started last night. He told Allison and I that his stomach hurt. There was no upset stomach, just nervous about something new. And… as I expected, we were the last ones to leave the Open House. He didn’t want to go. He’s so excited to go back tomorrow.

Later tonight I took Andrew to his first real karate class. He was crying and pushing into me. He wouldn’t talk to the kids that he knew and he was just so upset. I talked calmly with him and we tried again. Then the Sensei came over and took Andrew under his wing. Andrew got right on to the mat and tried really hard during his lesson. When it was over he couldn’t wait to go back. This is what today was like.

In today’s vlog I talk about all that but also do some unboxing of some Star Wars Funko Pop figures and a set of Star Wars Hot Wheels that I found. These were some great toys that I was excited to find and unbox. The Pops were from Barnes & Noble and a bunch of gift cards that I had. They have a large selection of all sorts of pop culture items. In addition to Star Wars they also have a whole Harry Potter section of Pops and much more.
