This morning we said goodbye to the GMC Sierra Denali (dubbed “Ironhide” by Eva). I have really loved driving the truck this past week. I will be writing up a full review of my experience later. I can say that I enjoyed this review ride so much, it was a a pleasure to drive every day.
Later in the afternoon Eva and I started working on a major review for a MEGA Bloks Skylanders Giants set. This is the biggest set we’ve looked at yet, 924 pieces. We spent an hour just opening the package and laying out all the pieces. I want to get that built before we leave for our vacation.

The new figures have several points of articulation which means that you can position them more ways that you can count. They are also pretty well balanced so you aren’t constantly readjusting them or picking them up. I had Raphael balanced on one leg on the flat screen monitor of my computer and he didn’t fall off unless I bumped the desk. So Playmates sent me two toys to review and they are a basic Shredder figure and a Flingers Donatello figure.
