It has been a little while since I’ve done a complete Toy Haul type video. I’ve been picking a few things up recently and looking at how I can better show the toys as I review, unbox and talk about them. I picked up a new little table to use after seeing one at Brian’s house. I’ll be using that in tomorrow’s video. The toys I mention int his post are for reviews that I want to do on my other blog, Big Damn Kid. I’m trying to break it up a bit with all the Transformers comic books.

Speaking of those. I have been feverishly trying to get way ahead on them because of next week’s trip to San Diego for Dad 2.0. I’m real excited to get out there but I don’t want to lose the momentum of the new channel. I can’t exactly say why I’m going so hard after it since it isn’t really generating an audience yet. I will have to start watching some Transformers videos and see if I can attract anyone to the new channel and blog. I love Transformers and it has been years of my collecting them. I even went to my parent’s this past week and looked through my collection. I didn’t do too much crawling around to get to everything but there are quite a few boxes in the attic. I’d like to go through my whole collection as individual review videos. Some unboxing videos and more. We’ll see. For now I have the video below of some of my more recent purchases.

I went to Toys R Us today and found six Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sets from MEGABloks. These were of the classic 80’s/90’s cartoon characters. There was one for each Turtle and then 2 larger sets with Bebop and Rocksteady. The six sets fit together to form some sort of diorama. They were all on clearance and I had a $5 Toys R Us credit plus 10% off today so that made my purchase only $24 bucks or $4 a set for all 6 sets. Yes, I just wrote a math problem in this description. Sheesh.

I also received some Transformers comic books that I did not have in my collection. I am trying to find all of the remaining comics from the original 80 comic run. I had stopped at number 59 and so got 60, 62 and 63 today. I’m going to be on the lookout for the rest to get the last 17 to finish the collection.

Tonight I went to Brian’s to film SteamDads and also Built from Bricks. We ran out of time to film a show where we built anything but I recorded Brian doing an update of his Brick Island. This is a LEGO city that he is creating in his garage and it is awesome. He’s been making some great stuff.

Speaking of making stuff the two of us made some more Gummies for SteamDads. We made three batches of them so that we would have a bunch to show and also to do some funny stuff with. You can see both shows next week. I have to get them produced, first.
