Digital Card Collections, Movie Libraries & Music
We have seen a surge in digital culture over the last few decades. The birth of the internet has redefined the rules of engagement to a love/hate relationship in our interactions with technology. I say interactions because, let’s be real, we hold full conversations (and arguments) with our technology (looking at you, Alexa). The advance of technology is simultaneous with the extinguishment of archaic (once revered) products and services.

What will happen to trading cards in 5 years?
There are 75 people watching this listing on Ebay right now. The question is, are they watching with excitement and open wallett or are they merely looking at it nervously while flipping through their own collection?

Deadpool’s Head Review
I dedicate this review to the die-hard Deadpool fans out there. Our favorite foul-mouthed anti-hero never fails to disappoint us. Deadpool’s Head from Marvel Legends and Hasbro is the toy that’ll be worth your while and money. This was released back in late August and it first peaked my interest when PaulStarHero, a cosplayer from the UK, tried it out. It was fascinating and wanted to purchase one for myself. Two weeks later, I bought Deadpool’s Head online from Best Buy. The retail price of it was $99.99. It’s a bit pricey, but it’s not too bad for a toy that costs under $100. That is, if your wallet can afford it. With the COVID-19 pandemic still being present, you definitely need a friend who will keep you company during these stressful and trying times.

Check Out This Inflatable Baby Yoda
Out of all of the Star Wars characters introduced out of the entire saga that has so far spanned over forty years, few characters (especially in the last few years) have been as beloved as The Child, better known by the fans as Baby Yoda. For anyone who has seen The Mandalorian, Baby Yoda has been one of the highlights, and has arguably done more to cement the popularity of the show than anything else.

Alka-Seltzer mascot ‘Speedy’
Baby boomer are those who were born between 1948 and 1964 and who grew up during the golden age of television. This generation also has enjoyed many firsts and have fond memories of classic television commercials and animated characters. One blast from the past who rings nostalgic is the cute little boy who is associated with Alka-Seltzer which is a popular effervescent antacid and pain reliever. This product was first marketed by the Dr. Miles Medicine Company of Elkhart, Indiana. The composition of Alka-Seltzer is quite simple as there are only three active ingredients.
