Take Aim

Monday has risen from it's icy grave and with it the entire universe is in danger. We must join forces and defeat it's evil! Thanks for coming back for another week of robots, monsters, and misadventure Zone Base readers! I hope you had a great weekend, mine sure was! Friday was Valentines Day, and even though I had flowers and candy for the Mrs then, we had a little dinner date Saturday to enjoy the occasion. Afterwards, there was some shopping where I picked up the new Funko Pop Soundwave and Megazord figures. I've been looking forward to these as their from a new subline in Pops that I find neat. They're a little larger and come with itty-bitty Pops to serve as pilots. Soundwave came with Rumble and The Megazord with the Red Ranger! They even come in boxes that resembled vintage packaging. You guys know I love a good pilot figure! 

Walmart had a really good sale on their app in the week that I totally missed out on! Between monthly bills and Valentines Day, I wanted to wait until purchasing any toys. I had plenty items in my cart to wait untill then weekend and well, whoops. I'll be buying the figure in time, but I totally missed out on that sale. Dammit, but other stuff took priority and real life comes first! Speaking of real life, the next episode of Transform Squadron will be a little delayed. My mother has a few medical procedures that will be taking up some extra time over the next few weeks as I've got to drive here around. Sometimes I can get busy really fast. 

Also speaking of real life, Saturday night after we got home, there was some pretty big storms here in my home state. Early Sunday morning around 4am it got super nasty and a few small tornadoes caused some havoc. Our entire county and a neighboring one were without power for a while. Some still don't have any. Fortunately ours came back on around 11am. It wasn't the longest I've been without electricity, but still not great. Hopefully those without will get restored soon. It's pretty cold and I'd hate for them to be without heat. I did spend Sunday morning listening to a radio while playing my Evercade EXP-R untill the batteries died (only had a half charge). I then read some G1 manga untill the power came back on. I've been meaning to re-read it, so that gave me a good chance to jump back in. I watch a few episodes of G1 every day on the TF channel, so it's always great to go a little deeper.

Speaking of the Transformers Channel, I've been noticing some weirdness. The channel is on a few different apps and usually has the same schedule across them all. Lately the Pluto TV version has a different schedule. Weird. Also, Cartoon Rewind has only started showing a few episodes of Gobots a week instead of the full series at a time like they do their other shows. Thankfully I have a lot of DVR recordings to get my fix whenever, but that's really annoying me. Also annoying, the Godzilla channel was shut down and the beginning of the year and now Tokushoutsu has been removed from Pluto TV. What the hell is going on? Fortunately Tokushoutsu still has a great presence on YouTube. Between that, the Godzilla channel, and the Godzilla: Monsters and Friends channel leaving Amazon Prime... I feel attacked! Thankfully most of the content is on demand (and DVDs). I just really like channels, you know? 

Well, this has turned out to be a longer weekly update than I planned, but hey... I don't know how to follow that. I've got to get some more toy pictures taken for upcoming posts and household chores to do before work tonight. I hope you all have a great week. Thank you for reading Zone Base. Your support means the world to me. Please don't forget to share with your friends and Mutual High Fives everyone!
