Vids: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Now Available on DVD and Blu-Ray
The last of the Harry Potter books was released in the 
summer of 2007. Fans of the books and subsequent movies wanted to see more of The Boy Who Lived but it seemed his story was over. Ten years later J.K. Rowling has taken fans back to the world of wizards to tell a tale that happened long before young Harry received his owl from Hogwarts. Continue reading

Equipment: Hasbro at Toy Fair 2017 Coverage Part 1…Star Wars Black Series and More
Hasbro has always been one of my more nostalgic 
stops at Toy Fair. I grew up with playing with G.I. Joes and Star Wars figures so seeing these toys brings back memories of a simpler time. Sure those days are gone but some things never change at least not for me. There is still a possibility of finding me sitting in front of the TV watching cartoons, eating a bowl of sugary cereal and playing with toys, or I would say, last Saturday. Continue reading

Equipment: 2017 Visit to The Coop at Toy Fair…Geek Chic at its Finest
Some years ago while I wandered around Toy Fair I came 
across a booth that was displaying pet products and bags. There was something about this crew that I liked. When we spoke it seemed as though I had found kindred spirits. Now some years have passed and I have done many reviews for The Coop and I realized that I was correct about them…they were on the edge of greatness. Continue reading

Equipment: Mattel at Toy Fair 2017 From Barbie to Wonder Woman The Ladies Rule This Year
I have often referred to Toy Fair as a trip to Santa’s workshop. 
There is so much to look at and it usually turns into a shopping list of wants for me. There are so many companies that attend and it is impossible to see everything in the short amount of time no matter how well good you think you are. Did I mention, it is impossible to see everything? Continue reading

Equipment: Check Out the Kickstarter for the Limited Edition Lord of the Rings Ring Set
We here at Geekstronomy don’t normally support
Kickstarter campaigns. When we do it is for a close friend or because the product is just that impressive. Well, the people at the Shire Post Mint produce some incredible coin replicas and they have started a Kickstarter for a new Lord of the Rings coin set.
These very impressive coins look and feel just like real coins but are not legal tender outside of Middle Earth. Each coin is highly detailed and is perfect for the Lord of the Rings fan in your life. I don’t believe you will be disappointed in these coins. Continue reading

Vids: Check Out the Prologue to ALIEN: COVENANT
Alien: Covenant is the latest installment of the 
very popular Alien franchise. The premiere is still a couple of months away but we have a great first look to whet your appetite. Though there hasn’t been much released on the film as of yet I think it is safe to assume that the crew of the spaceship Covenant encounter some xenomorphs. There is also a really good chance that (spoilers) people are going to die. Personally I can’t wait for the release. Continue reading
