As I said, PowerA is the world’s premier manufacturer of high-quality accessories…so I was excited to learn that they had made some to coincide with the launch of Playmation! If you have a Playmation and use it as much as we do…who knew there were so many bad guys trying to take over!? Then you know how many batteries you go through to keep the fun going. PowerA has come up with the solution! Repulsor & Activator Recharge Packs!
Playmation Repulsor Recharge Pack: The Playmation Repulsor Recharge Pack provides up to 5 hours of play on a single charge! This officially licensed product fits securely onto the bottom of the Repulsor, and includes a USB cable that is 6 feet long for recharging, as well as LED lights that indicate the charge status.

These packs keep us playing longer. And longer play means more unlocks and less bad guys! They fit in there perfectly…I’ve had accessories before that “sort of” line up and work…but these were really made to fit! Looking for more Playmation accessories? If you have the space the Playmation Home Base is a great addition to your play…
Playmation Home Base: The Playmation Home Base from PowerA is the perfect way to store your gear in between battles with Ultron’s armies.

Must watch this DVD is…this DVD combines two of my favorite things…legos & star wars! Disney and Lucasfilm have released a DVD collection for LEGO Star Wars: The New Yoda Chronicles. If you’re familiar with any of the animated LEGO movies or shows, you have an idea what this is like. You get a mix of seeing all your favorite Star Wars characters, in LEGO form, combined with the humor you would expect in a LEGO show.
I sat down to watch this while the boys were at school, and found myself giggling and into every bit!
The DVD consists of four 23-minute episodes. Each continuing the story from the episode before it. While the first episode does feature a sort of flashback to the time right after Episode III, the main story takes place after the events of Episode IV. The idea is to find the Jedi Holocrons so Luke Skywalker can continue his Jedi training. The problem is, he’s not the only one after them. Darth Vader is also trying to locate them as well.
After headstrong Luke nearly delivers the good guys into Palpatine’s clutches, Master Yoda and the ghost of Obi-Wan Kenobi unearth the Holocrons – last remnants of the secrets of the Jedi – to further Luke’s training. But Darth Vader also seeks the Holocrons, and he’ll stop at nothing to get to them first! Meanwhile, courageous superclone Jek-14, a Force-sensitive clone, comes out of retirement to help bolster the Rebels. Share all the action-packed thrills of these interlocking, intergalactic adventures in LEGO® STAR WARS: The New Yoda Chronicles!
Episode IV: Escape from the Jedi Temple (23:00)
The heroes need to escape from Vader and Star Destroyers. Flashback to right after Episode III. Obi-Wan,Yoda, and Bail Organa have to retrieve the Jedi Holocrons from the Jedi Temple so Luke can be trained.
Episode V: Race for the Holocrons (22:59)
The Holocrons have been hidden but someone else might find it before Luke. We see some familiar locations. Han goes to Dagobah, Luke returns to Tatooine and comes across Watto.
Episode VI: Raid on Coruscant (23:01)
Vader has to head back to Tatooine. Jek-14 arrives to help Luke and the others. A mission is set up to journey to Coruscant to try to retrieve the Holocrons.
Clash of the Skywalkers (23:01)
Luke’s death is faked to throw off Darth Vader. Han, Chewie, and C-3PO go to Hoth to set up a new base for the Alliance. Luke tries to make sense of the Holocron crystal he has.
Bonus Material
Alternate Ending: “Clash of the Skywalkers” (1:51)
I really enjoyed this DVD and I know the boys will too! It had a good story with plenty of comedy.
LEGO Star Wars: The New Yoda Chronicles was released on September 15 & retails for $19.99 but I’ve seen it available for as low as $16.95. Star Wars and LEGO fans should definitely check this out.

With Halloween right around the corner we think about two things…Candy & Costumes! With three boys we are always invited to some sort of Halloween get together…I recently had the opportunity to do a costume review from HalloweenCostumes.com. I let my oldest pick out an outfit to review…there was so many choices we were litterly looking and deciding for over an hour! He ended up deciding on a Ninja outfit…then it was down to 10 different ninja outfits… finally we picked the perfect one… i thought us girls took a while to pick an outfit..lol…He ended up picking the Kids Arctic Force Ninja Costume. He was super excited and couldn’t wait for it to come in! Every knock at the door, and every package he was like “is it mine?!” Finally came HIS package…he couldn’t wait to tear it open and try it on…he was even more excited at the fact that it came just in time for the Halloween School function that night! I really like the fast shipping, you just don’t get that a lot these days! The costume is made of a quality fabric, and fits him well. I’m sure after all the parties and trick-or-treating is done it will still have many more days of around the house play! I’m sure my middle one will be able to wear it next year which always make a mom of multiple children happy…
