It's a new year, and a new LEGO set. Though to be fair, this one arrived back in December, and I'm just getting to it now. But it's still one of the more recent LEGO sets, and also quite a contrast to the last set I reviewed, the LEGO X-Mansion.

If you have a dog, you may be familiar with Earth Rated products. I've been using their Poop Bags for years, which are not only really sturdy, but responsibly made with 65% post-consumer recycled plastic.

Your people have fled the tyrannical control of UNITY, escaping to the Andromeda galaxy. Using the debris of a precursor civilization, and under constant threat from both raiders and other settlers, it’s up to you to build a new home on the frontier.

Ah, the Christmas Village. That ubiquitous indoor holiday tradition that collectors steadily add to, year after year. But how many Santa's workshops and North Pole trains can one have? Sometimes you want something just a little different.

It seems like just yesterday that I was reviewing Halloween decorations like Lowe's Haunted Living 12-Ft Talking LED Bone Collector Animatronic. Sure, the spooky season is over (for now!) but that doesn't mean that the fun has to stop.
