Hot Wheels Justice League 5 Pack Now Available

The new Hot Wheels Justice League 5 Pack is now available exclusively at Amazon. Character cars include Superman, Aquaman, Batman, Wonder Woman and Cyborg. Each premium die-cast car are sold separately too. They look cool but my only complaint is that Batman is the only one featured on the packaging. Maybe the rest of the Justice League are too busy racing their cars.

Superhero Sunday: Aquaman Bulletin Board

I used to have this Aquaman bulletin board from 1979 and got it the same time that I had the Superman bulletin board. My sister had the Wonder Woman one. Unfortunately, the Aquaman and Wonder Woman bulletin boards were destroyed by water damage years ago. The image below is not mine but one I found at some foreign auction website. I'm still looking for an image of the Wonder Woman bulletin board from 1979.

Stickers For Leap Day

I've been saving my quarters since Christmas for the local vending machines with stickers and temporary tattoos. Since today is leap day, I decided to try my luck at the only store in town that has them. Unfortunately, the machines with the Pocket Patches and the temporary tattoos were both jammed. Luckily, the Mystery Machine was still working and it was only a quarter while the others were fifty cents. I ended up with 13 stickers including four Marvel Avengers (#1 is Captain America, #6 is Avengers Assemble, #7 is Loki and #11 is Ant-Man that are my first ones of this set), the first Need4Speed sticker (I have others in the series), two Pocket Patches fabric tattoos (#3 and 6), Pet Shop Sticker #9 (Mousestache), Trolls #5 and the first four UglyDolls stickers.

Marvel Avengers Milk Chocolate Hearts Box

This small Marvel Avengers Milk Chocolate Hearts Box was originally sold for a dollar at the local Walmart's this year but I picked it up for half price this Sunday. There were six red foil wrapped milk chocolate hearts inside. The front of the box when folded was the heart that included full color drawings of Captain America, Ms. Marvel and Iron Man. The lower left side of the box features the Hulk and an actual image of a milk chocolate heart.

The upper left of the box features Black Panther while the upper right features Thor. Both sides also includes a photo of a milk chocolate heart. Thor's side is also the opening while Black Panther's side is glued shut (I took it apart for easier scanning).
