REVIEW: October 2016 Loot Crate – Horror
We received the October 2016 Loot Crate, which – unsurprisingly – featured the theme - Horror. The box has a photo from last season’s The Walking Dead finale – with Negan holding his bat (Lucille) in front of Rick and his crew. On the back of the box, there’s a Walker mask. You can pop […] Read more

More Than Meets The Eye: Revolution iTunes Three Page Comic Preview
A DATE WTH DESTINY! After years of doing very little, Krok, Crankcase, Fulcrum, Spinister, and Misfire think they can wriggle out of anything -- but not even they can avoid a heavily-promoted multi-franchise crossover. Its the Scavengers Versus Your Childhood in a story that exposes all other art for the sham it is.

Booths @ #DesignerCon 2016 (Day One)
And while I may sadly never not be able to personally walk the aisles of Designer Con and meet the folks I blog about (or “not-yet-have-a-chance” to blog about) - I can at the very least peruse the images of their booths on Instagram (which is #epicsad, I know, I know…), and dream of myself taking a pic at the SUCKLORD photo spot at DKE Toys’ Booth (“photoshopping” myself in would be too utterly![]()

The Dolls Product Lines Series - Hunting Is In My Blood, Quinn
"Hunting Is In My Blood, Quinn" is a hunter to the core and he's ready to get going. It's hunting season after all and he looks forward to it every year. It doesn't matter if it's freezing out there - he'll be outside.
He doesn't mind a little cold weather, freezing weather, or even rainy weather. He loves the outdoors and all that comes with it. Of course, he also loves to hunt. Not for sport, but to talk to his "friends." You see, he loves nature and he loves all his animal friends. He "hunts" just to talk to them. To him there is nothing better than a brisk walk in the woods and talking to all his "deer" friends.
Quinn's all set for hunting. Now if he could just find his "deer" friends.

Who Doesn't Love Turkeys and Thanksgiving - Or Is It The Pies?
Included in my love of Fall crafting and decorating is Thanksgiving. After all - who doesn't love turkeys and Thanksgiving? Or is it the pies we all love?
With Thanksgiving comes crafting turkeys and pilgrims - both of which I have created over the years. I love them all but my all time favorite Thanksgiving decoration is a BIG wood craft that my husband and I made many, many years ago. It's a wood turkey who has become part of our Thanksgiving decorating tradition.
He stands 34" tall and I call him "Give Me Turkey Talk!"
He was made based upon a Tattered Treasures design and is an all wood "sponge" painted turkey. He does have some cloth associated with him, but that is to decorate his beautifully colored feathers.
"Give Me Turkey Talk!" is actually everything you'd want in a turkey. Meaty, colorful, silent, and festive.
He also was the wood craft I learned how to "sponge" paint on. After doing it once I absolutely fell in love with the way multiple paint colors can be applied using an ocean sponge. It has definitely become my favorite way to paint.
I really think he came out great and I just love the "sponged" blue and brown colors of his huge feet. Plus I love the brown "sponged" colors of his body.
Multiple different colored fabrics have been glued to his feathers to make him a very colorful turkey.
He is carry a "sponged" sign with a saying that every turkey in America wants everyone to do at Thanksgiving which is to "Eat Beef!"
His large pilgrim hat sits atop his head and "sponged" painted dowels are used for his skinny turkey legs. His Pilgrim collar has been "sponged" along the edges.
"Give Me Turkey Talk!" is a fixture in our Thanksgiving home and always takes his place next to the Thanksgiving table to welcome everyone to dinner.
Thanksgiving wouldn't be Thanksgiving without him.
I'm still trying to get him to clear the dishes. He hasn't quite learned how to do that yet, but I'm working on it.
Once he masters that then I'll see if he wants to learn how to cook.
At Thanksgiving time I, certainly, can use the help.
"Give Me Turkey Talk!" isn't the only Thanksgiving doll & craft I have made. There have been many, many turkeys and pilgrims made over the years. Some are cloth dolls, some are wood dolls, some are floral crafts, wreaths, woodcrafts, etc. We have a wide variety to say the least.
You know I love crafting for Thanksgiving so it should be no surprise to you that I created a Thanksgiving crafts tutorials, video's and how-to's Pinterest board.

Deluxe Hot Rod & Firedrive - TFormers Titans Return Wave 3 Gallery
Today we're bringing you a gallery of 150 photos of Hot Rod from Titans Return Deluxe wave 3! Thanks at least in part to a certain upcoming movie, the original name of Hot Rod has made a return, seemingly calling to a close the days of non-Prime Rodimus releases. Hot Rod is a much needed upgrade from 2006's Classics Rodimus: Bigger, with greater poseability, and a vehicle form more like the fantasy future car from the animated movie. It does have some minor issues, though - look for more on that in the review coming soon. Meanwhile, keep reading to see our photo gallery of Titans return Hot Rod!
