Combatrons Assemble! Unite Warriors Baldigus and LG-EX Black Convoy Join Forces
It's the most obvious pairing of all, courtesy of TakaraTomy's TF_pr Twitter account. The just-revealed Unite Warriors Baldigus (Ruination) is seen with the Tokyo Toy Show exclusive LG-EX Black Convoy, based on the original Car Robots character. While the Car Robots toys representing these characters scaled poorly, with Baldigus/Ruination being roughly the same height as Black Convoy, or Scourge if you prefer, this match up balances far better. Now all we need to see is eHobby Grand Scourge combined with the Combatron limbs... Keep reading for the full size photo!

I've Been Playing Again! This Time With Labeley.com
If you're a reader of my Linda's Blog and have been following me and all my blogs (yes, I do have a few! LOL LOL) you are well aware that I love to play and experiment. Especially when it comes to interactive websites.
Well, a couple of weeks ago I received an email from Ana Brady at Labeley.com (http://www.labeley.com) asking me if I'd like to try their "free online custom label creator developed by the team behind the well-known free online tool for designing and customizing labels, Labeley."
Hmmm... Free online tool for designing..... What's not to love about that?
So, given my love of playing I thought I'd try it out. Plus, she volunteered to write a "How to Create Holiday Decorations For Free With Labeley" article for me. Another plus....
While I had planned to do other things today I decided to read her how-to article and try out Labeley.
Here's what her article said:
How to Create Holiday Decorations For Free With Labeley
You must’ve noticed over the past few weeks how the nature around us has been changing its colors. Leaves on trees turned pale yellow, coral, and even bright red. The whole nature is gradually taking on warm golden, amber and scarlet hues. These changes of colors indicate that the green summer is long gone and fall rolls around. The temperature is dropping, but the holiday excitement is rising. Halloween is just around the corner, while Thanksgiving and Christmas are on their way. It’s that time of the year when you seem to be spending most of your your spare time on decorating your home for the next holiday.

Seemed easy enough to use so I decided to give it a try.
I started by familiarizing myself with thew different features which was very easy to do and only took a couple of minutes. It definitely was very easy to use.
Since today is Halloween I decided to create a Halloween label using a combination of my own graphics and some of their graphics. I choose a shape, added a background, added a border, and then started adding and re-sizing the graphics until I had a Halloween label I liked. The alpaca, green and rust trees, house and brown tree with spider webs in the label shown above were my graphics. The rest were theirs. After I was pleased with the layout I added the "Happy Halloween" text and then saved the image to my computer.
I like to add stickers to the back of the holiday cards that I send out each year so I decided to create labels for that purpose using one of my own graphics.
For each I started with a shape, added a background color, added a border, uploaded and re-sized my own graphics and then added my "Happy Holidays" text. It literally took seconds to do this. It was that easy.
I also love using gift labels on all my Christmas presents and am always looking for cute designs. So, I thought I'd design a "To: and From:" gift label of my own, which is shown in the picture. Once again I started with a shape, added a background pattern, uploaded and re-sized my own graphics and then added my "To: and From:" text. I love how it turned out. Of course, my imagination got the better of me as all sorts "To: and From:" label designs started filling my head.
At this point I knew it was time to stop. I was having way too much fun with this. I decided I'd wait until tomorrow to decide how many of my stickers and gift labels I was going to order.

I called these my #CUTEorDEATH sketches - done primarily for the publication of the Halloween Edition of TOYSREVIL webzine for 2015, meant to "bump up" the pages, with a "Call For Entires" garnering two submissions and hardly a "fanzine issue"-make … so I decided to double up my efforts, and as well utilized the last ten days ![]()
