WandaVision 2
WandVision is now streaming on Disney+. Another episode has dropped. I won’t post any spoilers in this post, please don’t post any in the comments. If I think of something that could be a potential spoiler, I’ll hide it behind a cut and won’t post it till a few days after that episode airs..
Trying to decide is I should do weekly Wanda and Vision posts. Should I do them Wednesday so I can call it WandaVision Wednesday? Or just do it Friday when new episode are released? Though I may have to call it WandaWednesday right now. I don’t have a Vision minifig. I may have Vision from another toy line, I just have to find him. I’m gonna have to go on search for Vision.

WandVision is now streaming on Disney+. It’s been pretty interesting so far. I like the old Scarlet Witch and Vision comics so was happy to see this series.

On August 27 we completed the Avengers build and grow series.
This was a fairy quick build. Hulks arm raise when you move a level in his back.

The free kit has a wooden project, instructions with a comic on the back, a patch of that project, an apron and goggles. You can put your child’s name on the apron and iron on the patches. Then they can wear it the next time.
NEXT PROJECT: The next Build and Grow project is a fireboat. The event is not till September 23. Registration has not opened yet. You can see a grayed out patch of the project on the Build and Grow page.

Avengers August Day Twenty-nine
This past Saturday Toys R Us had a LEGO Build Event. I took my son so he could build a Captain America Mosaic. This is a free event and no preregistration is required, but it is first come first served.
We went to Lowe’s, built our Hulk figure(post coming soon) then killed some time shopping before we went to Toys R Us. At TRU they set up a couple tables, on with the LEGO bricks and another for a workstation to build the set.
There is a poster with the bricks you need. It list how many of each piece you need. There are bins of bricks on the table. You walk around the table and bag all the pieces. Then go build the project. Unfortunately at this the location they didn’t set the bricks up in order. They should have been in the same order they were on the poster but they were not. It took longer to collect the bricks and we missed a few and had to go back. 
We took our bag of pieces and our 1:1 template found some space and built it. The base is a 16×16 square. To build it you used the template to figure the correct brick.
It was a cool build, my son had fun and now he has a cool art piece.

Have you ever been to one of these TRU Build events? What did you build?

Avengers August Seventeenth
Today is Black Widow Day. Earlier today I posted the Lowe’s Black widow kit and now it a new fig from Playmation. Playmation was a video game plus action figure set. You could add different figure and they would appear in the App. I heard the game was being discontinued. I have seen the toys at discount place like Ross, Essex, and Five Below.
Two pics today cause I could decide which I liked better. I really like the DOF with the fist in the foreground.

Have you played the Playmation App?

Lowe’s Black Widow Build and Grow
Black Widow Build and Grow!
August 13 was Black Widow day at Lowe’s. I unfortunately had to work so my wife and son picked up the set and brought it home. We built it Tuesday night.
This was the easiest build so far, just four steps including the wedge base. And only one size of nails so you have to sort them. There’s a couple places where you add stickers before you can hammer nails. But nothing too tricky.
The Black Widow moves at the waist. She spins so it looks likes she attacking with her baton.
What’s Included in a Build and Grow?
The free kit has a wooden project, instructions with a comic on the back, a patch of that project, an apron and goggles. You can put your child’s name on the apron and iron on the patches. Then they can wear it the next time.
NEXT PROJECT: The next Build and Grow project is The Hulk and the event date is August 27. This is the final piece of the Avengers series. I don’t know what comes after that.
To attend the event you need to register at Lowe’s Build and Grow. Use the store locator to fins the nearest event. Fill out the form. Then print out the waiver and bring it to with you. Registration for the next event opens Monday after an event.

They also sell some Build and Grow kits. They had a couple of wood car sets and child sized hammers. The kits are not in the area where the event occurred. At our location they were near the Key cutting section. You can see some of the sets on the Build and Grow site.

This one is almost four years old. It is from August 14 2012 and still one of my favorites. Inspired by the fact that the voice of Spongebob was a guest at a convention I was attending.
