Equipment: Hasbro Star Wars Reveals New Figures in Celebration of Bring Home the Bounty

The premiere of the Book of Boba Fett is only about 2 weeks away and like most of you, I can’t wait. When he was introduced, it appeared that he was going to be a bad ass bounty hunter who was the best at his job.

This whole matter became a running joke, we were sure we would never find the Lost in Space toys; I am glad that we were wrong.

The holiday season hasn’t always been my favorite time of year but there is one thing I love about the holidays, Hallmark Keepsake Ornaments.
