Leader Class: Sentinel Prime by Takara-Tomy/Hasbro from the recently released Transformers:Dark of the Moon Movie. In the movie, Sentinel Prime was one of the Primes that crash landed on the dark side of the moon that according to the fictional account of the movie was what set off the race to the moon. He was voiced by Leonard Nimoy who also voiced Galvatron in the Transformers movie that came out in the eighties.

Update: My suspicions were correct, it was indeed the charger plug that was defective. Read on below to see how I was able to fix the problem.

My son got an early Christmas gift from his grandmother, which was a Dream Machine: Eagle Blade. Its one of those China made R/C helicopters that you see in the mall as well as for sale in Alibaba. I’ve always wanted one but never got to buying one because of its steep price (around $80). I’m very thankful that I didn’t plunk down any cash for this as things didn’t really go as planned in terms of enjoying this toy. This toy is recommended for kids 8 years or older, but as with any RC toy, check first if your kid has the proper dexterity and fine-motor skills to control an RC toy.

Just finished watching Gundam Unicorn Ep 4: At the Bottom of the Gravity Well. It picks up from where Episode 3 finished. Banagher Links and the Unicorn Gundam were plummeting to earth after fighting with the Sinanju of Full Frontal. It is seen in the episode that Banagher was able to survive by taking shelter with the Garencieres.

I just had to post about Episode 8 of The Clone Wars titled The General. In the previous episode The Republic had taken to invading the planet of Umbara in order to prevent more planets from joining the separatists. Anakin SkyWalker and Obi One Kenobi’s Battalions play a pivotal role in capturing the capital according to the battle plan. Before however the battle gets into full swing, Anakin Skywalker is called back to the capital on the orders of Chancellor Palpatine himself. This left Rex and the rest of Anakin’s Battalion under the command of Jedi Pong Krell.
