looks like SOMEONE is making the most out of their PANTONE ORANGE license... making those pennies stretch.

(it's a joke.. obviously if they're paying for brand name colors they can afford it)

saw this and immediately thought - "CERTAINLY this can't be a Whole Encyclopedia about crafts - like LITERAL crafts".

but I was wrong - That's what it appears to be! GNARLY, DUDE.

"CHILD CRAFT" (sorry I forgot to get the pub date)

I'm not happy with LEGO lately, they're so expensive and they're selling out, and their creativity is waning - BUT!!!! !! ....

This set #60462 "MIX & MATCH".

THIS IS IT LEGO! DO MORE OF THIS! love it so much.

obviously legos are the infinite "mix and match" but to encourage it as a play feature / selling feature - YES this is the way denmark!

XSHOT really went to town on the unicorn foam dart guns. "BLASTERCORN" Not only are there the small ones in two colorways there's also a huge two handed one.

Why didn't HASBRO do this ??? have a REBELLE set that was unicorn and pegasus themed??!?! OH WAT COULD HAVE BEEN

[thriftrescue]

is this... a Carcassonne clone!?!?! but with a boat/maritime theme?? call me interested! "Beacon Patrol" There's even an expansion set.

seen at local game shop. pandasaurus games.

saw this GEARS set at thrift. underneath it looks just like the Discovery Toys Safari gears building sets from the 1980s - BUT with a... TRUCK SHELL?? I've never seen a set like this. Love the concept but I'm not sure where they were headed. is this also by Discovery Toys?

Found ANOTHER ONE! I think I'm about 1/2 there to a full collection.

SCARDEY BEAR Sweet Pickles book. This is the "B" book; They have an animal and a book for each letter in the alphabet. Each character is a certain emotion - the stories ATTEMPT to discuss that emotion but... don't really achieve it all that well. more often than not they character is simply shown experiencing the emotion... and then the book ends. ANYWAY I still want all 26.

nice Lego FRIENDS Wicked Set seen at retail

I picked this up thinking COOL - CAKES THAT LOOK LIKE RAW MEAT CUTS. THAT A T REX IS CHOMPING DOWN.

will it be GOAT FLAVORED!??!?!

but... it's not quite there... and it tasted like plastic. I think the base icing should've been red with white lined frosting.

Sonic and Hello Kity Pickleball stuff!!!!! at five below.

I'm having enough trouble with people taking my pickleball interest seriously... as MUCH as I'd LOVE to sport Sonic and Go Fast... I just can't.

NOW... if they had been TRANSFORMERSSSS that's a different story.
