The Origins Of A Cardboard Addict:Let's Get Dangerous Part 3

Daring duck of mystery,
Champion of right,
Swoops down from the shadows!
Darkwing owns the night!

Darkwing owns the night and now owns my collection of Darkwing Duck items.

I sometimes wish I am Drake Mallard an average everyday guy who turns into the Daring Duck of mystery by night. Well, maybe not a duck so much. Maybe I am a regular guy who turns into a nostalgic blogger by night? You think that counts at all? Nostalgia Guy (to the tune of Darkwing Duck)? Does that sound good at all?

When I am talking about Darkwing owning my collection of his items, I am not talking about the DVD sets I own of both seasons.

 

Is it because I am showing off one of the coolest DVD covers to one of the seasons disks? Nope.

Is it because I remember to rewind my third Darkwing Duck VHS set every time without the sticker reminding me to be kind and do so?

Nope. Even though it is nice not having to rewind it when I try to watch it.

It's because of this that my buddy @Jake1725 was able to snag for me.

 

YES, YES, YES! Eat gas evil doers! The biggest piece to my Darkwing Duck collection yet! The man himself with all of the pieces and in working order. So rad!

If you watch this video, it will show you how Darkwing operates. Simply it's just a button on his back that makes his hat pop up.

I had Darkwing Duck as a kid. However, my sister broke his hat mechanism and my duck wasn't ever the same. My mother tried to fix him by using a lighter and melting the hat back on but that was a total fail and made Darkwing look more like Negaduck. The hat also just fell off a few hours later as well. She didn't have a hot glue gun so thought by melting it back on it would work.

Darkwing marks number three I own now from my childhood. I am still short two more that I had personally in Launchpad and Steelbeek, and I am hopeful I will land those two as well. Darkwing has been sitting in my drafts since February and I am just bringing out his reveal now. I can say though as of this typing I have no more sequels planned for Darkwing on here unless I can add more.

I would also to add the rest of the set to. Might as well get the ones I didn't have as a kid to.

So for now, the city of St.Canard can rest in piece, til the next time.

REVIEW: Every Boy Needs A HERO DVD + DVD GIVEAWAY!!

In the game of baseball, you may face some challenges. Hitting, pitching, catching or just base running. In the game of life, you also face some challenges such as sin, death, finances and other small or big challenges. In this movie, Joe Finn, faces both.

The storyline starts as Joe Finn, a father and husband, left town for a big scouting opportunity in the city for 7 years leaving behind his wife and son, David. Joe was only trying to what was best for his family by taking a bigger job so he can provide them with more. What he didn't realize, was the impact of him not being there would make.

Before Joe left, you find out the strong role that baseball played in the relationship between father and son as the dad was the coach of the son's team called The Gappers.

When Joe finally returned back to town, he found out that things were not quite the same as he left. His wife was dying of cancer, his son was unforgiving of him leaving and was soon headed for college in a few weeks, and the game of baseball that he loved wasn't quite the same either.

In an attempt to win back his son, he went back to the game they both love, baseball. So Joe joined coaching with David, who was coaching The Gappers at the time, and they worked together to overcome their differences in which they turned the team, that seemed to have no potential and absent fathers, to a winning team and even got the fathers who were once absent to show up and help out their sons. The impact that Joe and David's new relationship was making, even had an impact on a father in jail discovers a new way of helping his son from within the prison cell.

Without giving away the entire movie in my review, cause honestly, then you wouldn't need to watch, all I can say that it was a great watch from start to finish. It wasn't just a normal baseball movie focusing on just baseball and winning, it was much deeper than that and the relationships we can form with the sport. The movie is great on many levels and has some humor, makes you smile at the relationships being formed and most importantly teaches you forgiveness. As God is always forgiving us, we sometimes need to do the same to others. If you have time to watch this movie, I highly recommend it.

If you want to see more, watch the OFFICAL TRAILER and I bet you will be hooked.

So not only did I get to review this great movie, but I also get to give one away thanks to my friends over at Family Christian.
