Pentiment and God of War Ragnarok
One of the signs that gaming is growing up is when you have two games so totally different vying for people’s attention this November.

But with both games now gold, and almost ready to be played, there’s a good chance that Game of the Year talks…

With over 350 pieces, getting this set together took a lot of time - in fact, Playmobil even warns parents that assembling the set could take up to 90 minutes! But is all the effort worth it? Is there enough to do in the Animal Care Station to warrant the high price and long build time? Let's take a look!

With the recent launch of the Logitech G Cloud, a number of other products in the G lineup have come out as well. This includes the brand new Logitech GFITS true wireless gaming earbuds.

We've looked at a lot of Dino Rise sets in the past, so why not look at another. Here is my deep dive on Dino Rise - Pteradon Attack!

Dino Rise Saichania: Invasion of The Robot Playmobil Review
More Playmobil, more great fun! This time my kids and I stepped outside the world of reality - from looking at the Fire Rescue ship and Mini Cooper - and entered the world of dinosaurs! We've looked at Dino Rise in the past, but not on this scale. The Saichania: Invasion of the Robot set is pretty big, and includes all you need for at least two people to play for hours.

I hope you are not getting tired of seeing Playmobil on the website, because we have a lot more coming! This time, we are taking a look at the City Action Fire Rescue and Personal Watercraft (70140) that includes two boats, 4 figures, and tons of little gadgets to keep you fans buys for hours.

Playmobil Mini Cooper Review
Although it might only be 41 total pieces, the Mini Cooper from Playmobil (Set 70921) is one fantastic toy. If there is one thing I can say about Playmobil that is always true, it is that their licensed vehicles are top notch and unrivaled in this space. In the past, we have reviewed the Volkswagon Bug and Bus, and many other vehicles. They are always fantastic. With a few characters included, this is one of the better, shareable Playmobil experiences.
