I”m really into mystery boxes these days, which is why I decided to hop on the trend and produce some of my own unboxing videos. I’m a novice at putting videos together, so please be patient with me as there will be a few bumps in the road.
This is my fi installment of Mystery Mini Mondays where I’ll unbox some of the WWE series 2 Funko mini figures in an effort to collect the whole set. There will probably be some doubles along the way, but hopefully not too many…fingers crossed.
It took me a bit, but I finally uploaded my unboxing video of WWE’s inaugural Slam Crate. I must admit, I forgot to show the poster of Shinsuke Nakamura since it was covered by the spoiler sheet, which I quickly put away because, well, I didn’t want the contents of the box to be spoiled.
The box does a great job of appealing to fans who love the current WWE product. If you’re looking for things from the Attitude Era or The Rock & Wrestling Connection, not so much. Don’t take my word for it. Check out the video and you be the judge.
“Where’s Poe Dameron?” “Why did they recast Rey?” “How is Darth Vader alive?” These are the questions that Lucasfilm’s super weapon, the Disney marketing machine, haven’t been able to quell or answer for a fair amount of moviegoers as we’re now under thirty days away from the release of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
While the title’s subheading takes the place of confusing and detested words such as anthology, companion, or…prequel, acclaimed author James Luceno once again brings elegant cohesion to the political climate of the Star Wars universe by examining the passion and desire of two of the upcoming film’s main characters.
Catalyst tells the story of the connection between Imperial Commander Orson Krenic and energy scientist Galen Erso, played by Ben Mendelsohn and Mads Mikkelsen in the upcoming film, and how came together to create the first Death Star. Krenic’s manipulation of Erso spans from the Clone Wars and stops well into the Empire’s grip on the galaxy.
Krenic marvels himself as a clever over-achiever while those around him feel he’s talented but short-sighted and arrogant. While that may prove to be true in the movie, here, he has no qualms about playing the long game of deception as he desperately vies for a seat at the table…The Emperor’s table. Krenic is in charge of the project to construct a certain technological terror and needs Galen to make the super laser operational.

Featherweight champion Conor McGregor made history last Saturday when he walloped Eddie Alvarez to become the Lightweight Champion, making him the first fighter in UFC history to hold two titles in two weight classes simultaneously.
The fight capped off a monumental night of fights as UFC 205 was the first event in New York since the statewide ban was lifted after a nearly 20-year political battle.
Eddie Alvarez was the test to prove once and for all whether Conor McGregor was fact or fiction. McGregor aced the exam with relative ease, but Alvarez didn’t execute the best game plan. Continue reading “Alvarez fell into the Trap at UFC 205”
