The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is an action role-playing video game set in an open world environment, developed by Polish video game developer CD Projekt RED. It was released for the PlayStation 4 on 19 May 2015.

It is an amazing game. Huge open world with tons of side missions. It is estimated that to complete it all would take about 200 hours. Visually it looks great and the musical score is beautiful.

WWE Raw live event!

Isaac attended his third live WWE event, and second RAW show. My girlfriend's daughter, Calixa, also joined us. It was lots of fun and overall a great show from the WWE. Can't wait for the next one… hopefully a PPV event!

The Avengers: Age of Ultron

When Tony Stark jumpstarts a dormant peacekeeping program, things go terribly awry, forcing him, Thor, the Incredible Hulk, Captain America and the rest of the Avengers to reassemble. As the fate of Earth hangs in the balance, the team is put to the ultimate test as they battle Ultron, a technological terror hell-bent on human extinction.

A great sequel packed with amazing action sequences, mind blowing special fx and good storytelling. This is the film that feels the most like a live action comic book. Yet there are a few elements that could have been better. First, it is too short. Most of the plot feels rush… no wonder since the director's cut was 60 minutes longer. Changes were made to the Ultron character. He is now arrogant and cocky and not simply the determined killing machine of the comic book. But don't worry, Marvel delivers once again. Please note that there is only one mid-credits scene.

Best friends!

Here we are!
Isaac is my son but also my best friend.
Our father and son relationship has grown to something very special. We love the same things, have lots of fun and share the most time possible together. There's a great deal of respect between each other. And most importantly I treat him as best as I can. He deserves the best after all.

Mattel WWE's Stone Cold Steve Austin

Along with the Hulk Hogan we recently got, this was my personal most wanted WWE action figure. And after months and months of searching… finally got him; Stone Cold Steve Austin!

This is the amazing Elite Collection Hall of Fame Exclusive action figure.

This is as great as it can get. First of all, love the sculpt and paint. It clearly looks like Stone Cold. He comes with his classic leather (plastic) jacket, "What?" t-shirt and necklace. Love it!


Tuesday, June 9, 2015

Mattel WWE's Rusev

One of our favourite heel (bad guy) these days… Rusev!

This is an awesome action figure of the Bulgarian brute. He does look like him and totally means business. Safe to say that this is one superstar who will get lots of plays from us.

Monday, June 8, 2015

Mattel WWE's The Usos

We are not fans of the Usos but it is always cool to have more WWE action figures, especially when it is a new tag team.

Still, the Usos looks very cool. Love the details on their clothes. They also came with a surfboard, that can be broken in two.

Mattel WWE's Billy Gunn & Road Dogg

Ordered a bunch of Mattel WWE action figures online for my Isaac and myself.

First was Billy Gunn & Road Dogg, the New Age Outlaws. Now our DX team is fully completed. Isaac is very proud of it. As for the figurines themselves, they are simple but does look like the real wrestlers. They also came with two microphones.

"Suck it!"

Minecraft Diamond Steve

Standing 2.75 inches high, Steve’s articulated arms, legs, head and waist have a wide range of motion. He can be pulled apart at the twisting torso, and his arms and legs can be pulled off and easily snapped back in place. He’s a rugged little dude who can take a hit and get right back up again.

In the game, Steve’s diamond armor serves as the most durable of all the sets in Minecraft, offering an impressive .833 defense points per diamond. Even more, after getting damaged, the armor can be repaired to become even stronger than before.

Steve comes equipped with a removable helmet that matches his diamond armor, a diamond sword for fighting that perfectly fits in either hand thanks to ridges that line up, and a diamond ore block.

Isaac got an iPad!

For months now, Isaac has been saving his money to get his own iPad. Well now it is done. A brand new Apple iPad Air. He is very proud.

WWF - WWE DVD and Blu-ray

We got some cool WWF - WWE DVD and Blu-ray.

First is the WrestleMania III Championship Edition DVD. This is a cool edition of what is probably the best WrestleMania ever. Hogan vs. Andre. Steamboat vs. Savage. Silverdome. Over 93,000 fans. And amazing event.

A couple of notes here in that this is the exact same version of this event taken from the WrestleMania Anthology set meaning that all references to "WWF" & various music has been changed to due the rights expiring but there is no blurring of the WWF logo since this event happened before the "Attitude Era."

Next was the Stone Cold Steve Austin: The Bottom Line on the Most Popular Superstar of All Time Blu-ray. A great 3 disc collection on one of the greatest superstar ever. Overall this is around 540 minutes. There is a good documentary and tons of matches!

WWE WrestleMania 31

We decided to go see the latest WWE WrestleMania 31 at the cinema.

Overall a great event, lots of fun on the BIG screen and an amazing twist ending with a new WWE World Heavy Weight Champion.

The Art of He Man and the Masters of the Universe

In 1983, the world was introduced to He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. My brother and myself immediately fell in love with MOTU. We bought the toys, read the comic, magazines and watched the animated TV series.

Now Mattel and Dark Horse have created this comprehensive retrospective chronicling all of the history of He Man and the Masters of the Universe. 320 pages of illustrations, photos, sketches and more. From the original concepts to the latest collection. It is an amazing book.
