Despicable Me2 is coming this summer and the Minions are taking over! They are pretty darn cute and hilarious … though these new batch of toys seem pretty spendy … it’s cheaper to collect diecasts (unless it’s a 4-pack)  but I guess that’s the price of progress and plastic … Nice job on the packaging […]

Only about 230 Christmas shopping days left! (Well, about 260 to Christmas Day). Here’s what’s coming to Costco & BJ’s Wholesale Club this holiday season.

Lots of PLANES planes are coming … Two from the “Pull & Fly” lineup do not actually fly in the sense that that leave the ground on purpose. Dusty & Bravo are pullbacks so they’ll go racing down a flat surface but fly? Not so much. Not sure how they’re going to spin a lineup […]
