Haul: 01-22/24-12
In the typical shopping run with the girl on Sunday, I wasn’t fortunate enough to find the Bull Megazord, however I did find the Armor of Omens! I was all “Ooh! Shiny!” and then all of a sudden it was in my checkout bag. Wonder how that happened. Weird. Also nabbed the other Noble Victories deck I needed because I needed me some Durants. Flash forward to Tuesday. I left school early to go check out Target. After they disappointed me yet again, I figured I’d take a chance and make a dash to Walmart. Sure enough, not only did Walmart still tempt me with Mumm-Ra’s tank thing, they also had the DX Claw Shield. However, low and behold, the Bull Zord was waiting for me! I grabbed it, and made it to school while only being 5 minutes late. Professor’s don’t care if you’re on time, so it wasn’t a big deal, but it was worth it.
Gonna try to get the Bull Megazord review up on Friday, but since I still have school reading to do, a podcast to edit, and general things to do before I leave for the weekend, I can’t make any promises. This review requires more editing than any of my reviews in the past.
Review: S.H.Figuarts – Kamen Rider Ouja
NOTE: Testing a new style of post here. I realize how much time I waste writing written reviews for products I do video reviews on. I enjoy writing a lot, but it seems like what I’m doing is rather pointless. Let me know in the comments on YouTube or here at my blog/RRR to let me know what you think of the new style. I plan on doing written reviews of things I don’t do videos on, like games, movies, episodes, or just some toys that I feel don’t need a video. Again, please let me know! Thanks for the support.
Review: Hydro Bow (Power Rangers Samurai)
—
While I’m happy to be seeing more weapons in the Basic Weapon line that isn’t a Morpher or the Spin Sword, I’ll be the first to admit the Hydro Bow is an odd choice, given the fact that the sixth Ranger is generally a hit with the kids. Granted, a Barracuda Blade done in that size class would probably be a bit to small, it’s a weapon I’m still surprised we haven’t seen stateside. Regardless, the Basic Weapon line gives us the Hydro Bow, Kevin’s weapon of choice, shaped like a typical bow. The Morphers play music, and the Spin Sword spins, so what does this do? It squirts water. This one shot water squirter can be yours for $14.97 at Walmart. Just as a note, the Hydro Bow will also be packed in the Blue Ranger Training Gear Set, which will feature a Blue Ranger mask, the Shiba Logo pin, a Disk Holding Belt Buckle, the Hydro Bow, the Dragon Disk, the Swordfish Disk, and the “Catch” Disk.
Haul: 01-20-12
Went to go pick up the girlfriend and go have lunch and decided to make two pit stops. I think I’ve come to the conclusion that I don’t find shit unless she’s with me. A stop at Walmart in hopes to find the Bull Megazord ended in me walking away with the Thundercats Tiger Flyer. Only remaining Wave 2 Thundercats stuff I want that I know are out is the Armor of Omens, and Mumm-Ra’s tank thing. They had Mumm-Ra’s tank thing, but I don’t get paid for another week, so it’s gonna have to wait. A stop at TRU proved hopeful once I spotted the Shogun Buckle on the shelf! Plus I got to use my Rewards Bucks so it was only $2.11. Hurray! Sadly this means I found the Buckle BEFORE the Bull Megazord…but I’m sure I’ll find the Bull soon. I updated the schedule to the right with my recent purchases, hopefully I find the Bull before my review is scheduled to come out. =p
