Heroes Pencil toppers

These are suppose to be pencil toppers, but I find them cute, so I collect them. They are a bit too heavy to be at a pencil's end.
Meow! Let's play.
Can I have some ice cream?

Hello Kitty

My kids does not really love Hello Kitty, but it is one of the toy in our house. (soft toy - from Mc Donald, I remember there's a craze last time to get this Hello Kitty soft toy)
Reason why I post this here is because Sanrio announced last week that Hello Kitty is not a Cat. She a little girl named Kitty White who lives in London and owns a cat..Ha Ha. (Is Sanrio trying to sabotage the popularity of their creation?)
Logically, can't say they are wrong.
I am not a Cat. I am a girl with whiskers and a tail
I can be a frog, rabbit, bird, panda /////
We can say Mickey mouse is not a mouse, he is just a boy living in the US who has a dog named Pluto.

Audley Drift

Just have to try out what is so fun about this Audley remote control (RC) cars (Their Ads is very impressive).
The excitement is there initially, but subsided very fast. Even though it comes with 2 different set of tires, but it is not even used. Maybe my kids do not have an interest in RC cars. Unless they go and join some organized toy car racing circuit to boost the enthusiasm, the interest in RC cars drains down as fast as the batteries inside the RC toy. The kids seem to spend more time playing their die cast metal (or plastic) cars rather than the RC car. Those “manual” cars excite their imagination more than the RC cars. The more mechanized and automated a toy is, the lesser will be the imagination during game play.
I thought these branded remote control is durable (as I have bought those non-branded before), but somehow it broke after a certain stress of turning force from a kid. And this type of toys is really power hungry. Seems like I am contributing to the waste of the environment with all those used batteries.
