Watch it, Touch It, Play With it
It’s been a while since I’ve done an online shop review, which is weird, because that’s where I get the majority of my toys from! I tried a new place just a couple of days ago and the items have already arrived so thought it was time to do another review – especially as it’s […]

Recently we made our second visit to Legoland in Windsor with our almost 3 year old son, with this being shortly after their reopening with COVID restrictions in place. Our first visit was some time ago when he was barely over a year old, so there wasn’t a huge amount for him to do that […]

The review here isn’t going to be anything major because I’ve got an unboxing video to go with it, which I’ll embed just below here. If you want to watch the video and unbox with me read up to the video and then stop reading as it’ll have spoilers otherwise. This is for me the […]

I’ve been keeping an eye on this site for a while now, having stumbled across it while looking for a place in the UK to buy designer toys – in particular if memory serves me correct I was looking for some of the larger Dunny figures by KidRobot in London while I spent a week […]

I managed to snag I think 3 of their volume 1 boxes, and this time around I got the full limit of 4 boxes because I was so happy with their first lot. I’ll give you a spoiler right now… Volume 3 didn’t disappoint, and I didn’t even really look too hard at the preview […]

I hadn’t really been in to Playmobil much, although I must say that it does look like they’re trying to appeal a lot more to an adult market… They’re slowly reeling me in! I have just purchased the Back to the Future advent calendar so keep an eye out for that one at the end […]

I managed to get 3 of the hit or miss mystery boxes which were released towards the start of this month by G n G Boxes through their Instagram account. Their boxes always sell out pretty fast and I know they have a pretty good following online so if you want one of the boxes […]

This was the first time I ordered from this company and only found them on Instagram by chance after they liked one of my pictures. These boxes both cost me £20 each as I got them on a day where they had offered £5 off per box, so they were usually £25 boxes + postage […]

Prinsengracht 204, 1016 HD Amsterdam, Netherlands On my last day in Amsterdam I checked out Henk’s Comics and it was amazing for Funko Pops – you can read more about it here. Being a comic book store it focused on those pops, a few other nice action figures, and a lot of literature… It’s a […]

Zeedijk 101, 1012 BG Amsterdam, Netherlands I’d seen some pictures of the funko pop area of this shop in the heart of Amsterdam and decided that I HAD to visit it at some point during my short trip to the city. I was only over there for business so thought to myself that I’d go […]

To start off I wanted to mention that this was meant to be my first unboxing video on Youtube. I had everything set up, took hours to get the lighting ok and camera set up, got nervous and then really go in to the swing of things. I stopped the recording, tried to open it […]

The Bluewater shopping center in Kent is a mecca for people from Kent and Essex to shop for over priced clothes, expensive shoes, fancy chocolate and really pricey American sweets, but wouldn’t you know it’s actually also a pretty good place to hunt for pops! House of Fraser We parked at the car park which […]

Secret Cinema is a great concept and this was the first time that I had experienced it, having taken part in a matinee performance of their Stranger Things version of this interactive experience. I just got home from this earlier today. It was the first time they had done a performance based on a television […]

When I found pop in a box I absolutely loved the website, and to be fair, I still can’t and won’t fault their selection. I will start this by saying that as a provider of Funko products they are one of the best sellers in the UK, and I still have my account, I will […]
Read MoreWhen we attended MCM Comic Con in London for their 2019 October date, the best stall for Funko pop figures appeared to be the Magic Madhouse one. Most of their sales space is reserved for board and card games, along with associated products (like dice and card expansion packs etc), but to the side there […]

This was our 5th MCM comic con in London and whilst I didn’t hugely enjoy the one at the start of the year as it was busy, I must say that this one was even less enjoyable and has seriously impacted our decision as to whether or not attend again in the future. However, there […]

This is a post which I wrote some time ago on a previous blog called the Wilder Traveller which I closed, however thought that it would be a shame if this post were to be lost forever. I know that the Walker Stalker Cruise was stopped with the last one having been in 2019 and […]

I’ve recently closed a travel blog of mine which had a review of my first ever convention visit which happened to be London Film and Comic Con from back in 2016 and it seemed a shame for it to become lost forever… So here it is: Until this morning I was a comic convention virgin, […]

Before Ripley came along we had visited a few comic and popular media conventions including MCM Comic Con in London, London Film and Comic Con and Walker Stalker (Walking Dead convention), and having a baby wasn’t going to stop us from continuing. Before you read on I must add that this post was migrated from […]
