Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon

Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon for the Nintendo 3DS released on March 24, 2013 in North America.  It`s the sequel to Luigi's Mansion on the GameCube.  When the first game released, I was not a fan because I wanted a Mario game not a Luigi game. But as soon as I started playing Luigi's Mansion, I enjoyed it so much that I became a fan and I understood why Nintendo made it a GameCube initial release game.  The graphics were good, the puzzles were clever, the music was memorable and the game was fun.  So I`m glad that Nintendo decided to keep supporting the franchise and release a sequel (and third game) because to me, Luigi's Mansion is a solid franchise.  Update:  This game really sucks.  Honestly it's the worst game I have ever played.  It's got bad controls, no mid-game saves so if you die you have to start from the beginning of a level, and the graphics aren't as  good as  the first game.

Transformers Reveal the Shield Special Ops Jazz

Jazz is one of my favorite Transformers because he’s a sports racing car.  There’s something so cool about seeing a Transformers sports car.  This version of Special Ops Jazz was part of the “Reveal the Shield” toy line and it released in 2010.  At the time, I hadn’t seen a Hasbro Transformers retro inspired Jazz featuring the rub sticker so I knew this would be popular and a hard one to get because it was unique; and I was right.  I kept visiting Walmart in the hopes that I would find him, but I never did.  And so I did what every collector eventually does when they become desperate, I bought it from a reseller.  Thankfully the reseller wasn’t too harsh and I was able to buy it for a couple of bucks over retail.

I’m glad I was able to add him to my collection because he’s a really well made toy.  He comes with blue tinted windows and windshield, the classic rub sticker that you need to heat up to reveal their alliance, and he looks pretty awesome in robot mode.  At the same time he’s not perfect; the rear end could have used some paint to accent the lights and pipes, and the body is made of white plastic which has been yellowing over time.  But despite that, Special Ops Jazz is still a fun toy to transform and play with, and in the end that’s what is most important; having fun.
