Can’t Miss Games for Christmas from Activision – BenSpark Holiday Gift Guide

Skylanders Imaginators Sony Starter Pack

This holiday season, when you are looking for games to get your family, think Activision. Activision has a wide array of games for the people in your life. For the young ones to teens they have the Skylanders franchise with the sixth installment of the series, Skylanders Imaginators. This time around portal masters can create and play with their very own Skylanders characters. They can even get those characters 3D printed into playable figures for the game. I’ve received a bunch of toys and games from Activision over the years, specifically the Skylanders line. This year was the best one so far. I was sent every figure, creation crystal and even a starter pack to get going on the Wii U. I’ve been making some unboxing and gameplay videos of all of my Skylanders from Imaginators. I’ve even gone out and found all the exclusive ones I could find at various stores like Target, Toys R Us and Gamestop.

Jingle Bell Chompy Mage

Activision sent me one of the holiday themed Skylanders, Jingle Bell Chompy Mage. This Skylander is out in stores now. Jingle Bell Chompy Mage is a specially designed toy that appears in the game outfitted in a holiday-inspired wardrobe. He joins the lineup of Sensei Skylanders new to Skylanders Imaginators and is ready to teach the Skylanders some new fighting techniques and a classic Chompy holiday tradition – the White Chompy gift exchange!

Moana Monday and Some Toys To Life Arrivals

Dinner at Wahlburgers
Photo-A-Day #4241

Today was a fun day. I received a couple of items in the mail. First was the latest Story Pack for LEGO Dimensions. This is the Fantastic Beasts Story Pack and I am looking forward to playing it, but I have to see the movie first. The other item in the mail was the Winter Holiday Skylander, Jingle Bell Chompy Mage. I’ll also do a full unboxing of each of these along with some gameplay videos. Both are fun and I am looking forward to playing each. I also found a Boba Fett White Prototype that was a Walgreens exclusive.

Tonight we drove in to Boston to see Moana at a sneak peek. Before we saw the movie we went to dinner at Wahlburgers. It was a really nice place for dinner with Boston Overload decor. From the Red Sox to Dorchestah and then movies of the Wahlburg brothers. The food was really good, too. I got a bacon cheesburger with onion straws and their special wahlsauce. Allison got the melt and that was also excellent. The kids also enjoyed their meals. It was nice to get out and see the movie. I’ll be posting up a review of the movie soon. It comes out tomorrow, so please go see it soon, it is amazing.
