Toys, Tunes and Beer

Happy freaking Monday. It was a busy weekend, but here we are again. I hit the Saratoga Toy Show yesterday and picked up a couple of things, including this @Star Wars Enfys Nest with Swoop set, for $20! Spoiler I love this thing. I also love the Solo movie. It isn’t as serious as Rogue One, but it’s a fun story, and a great cast. The Enfys Nest figure has no business being this good for being 7 years old. Stunning sculpting. Smooth articulation. My only gripe is the fur on her (spoiler sorry) shoulders. The swoop is a beast. Again, fantastic sculpting, moveable parts and you can even take the “hood” off. Enfys sits on it easily, and the stand gives you a couple of nice angles to work with. While in Saratoga I hit @Treehousebrewco to restock, so get ready for that. I almost skipped Milky JJJuliusss, but after reading the description I was in. It’s a super hopped version of JJJuliusss, which is a great beer. A little bitter at the end, but tons of citrus everywhere else. With “milky” in the name I was expecting a lot more haze, but it works really well. These two 7”s couldn’t be more different. Under the Knife by @Hatebreedofficicial brings their brutal lyrics and music to these first few songs they recorded. Their debut album is still in rotation for me. Open Roads and Broken Dreams from Reach the Sky also has a special place for me. Their lyrics hit close and always make me reminisce. Two bands on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to hardcore, but still tops on my list.

Overall ratings. Figure 5:5. Beer 4.5:5. Albums 5:5. #starwars #actionfigures #treehouse #hatebreed #reachthesky
