It may be possible to do everything at Walt Disney World, but who has the time? A place to start is this bucket list featuring 25 experiences. Some may seem too easy, but remember, not everyone lives in Orlando and has ready access or an annual pass. Then, there are events... Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights is a mere seven months away. Dates for the 2017 edition of the scare fest have been posted on the event’s official website.
And select tickets are now available. HHN will begin Sept. 15 and run on 34 select nights between then and Nov. 4. UPDATE: Tapings for all four days have sold out in about 10 minutes. Jimmy Fallon fans can request tickets for the tapings of “The Tonight Show” at Universal Studios set for early April. Of course, requesting tickets is not the same as securing them. Fallon will produce his late-night talk show... Topiaries and plantlife are the stars of the Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival. But food and beverages play important supporting roles in the Disney World event.

A Walt Disney World commercial that aired during Sunday’s broadcast of the Academy Awards teased to the upcoming opening of Pandora, the “Avatar”-themed land at Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park. The spot featured director James Cameron and dramatic banshee action. “When people visit Pandora,...is one of the many featured in . It is based on the 2013-2015 theme. After thousands of years filled with peace, Chima is once again torn in conflict because a misunderstanding, and the Crocodile Tribe leads it's allies into battle against the Lions. Soon, Laval the Lion Prince is tricked into throwing the Crocodile's CHI into the "Gorge of Eternal Depth" and more tension comes.. Finally after months of fighting the tribes must unite because of a "Black Cloud" threatening Mount Cavora, the source of CHI, yet when the CHI Falls stop, the Lions are blamed and the final battle for Chima has come. Though, when Laval and Cragger's showdown comes they find themselves falling to their deaths, until Laval sacrifices his life, reminding Cragger of his friendship with him.
By faking his death Laval finds the Crocodile Legend Beast one of the eight Legend Beasts which can restart the falls, and returns much to Cragger's relief. Soon after the Tribes unite as allies to go and save the other Legend Beasts who are trapped in the Outlands. There they find shelter in Lavertus (the exiled Lion's) base and are able to free seven, until it is revealed that the CHI Laval threw was what created this new enemy that had trapped the Legend Beasts, the final Beast is saved and the Heroes barely escape, if not for Lavertus who uses his Golden CHI to support the exit and sacrifices his life. Finally the Falls are restarted and Chima is flourishing, that is until Scorm the Scorpion King accidentally awakens Sir Fangar an accent enemy, that was frozen for a millennia.. With plenty of CHI the Tribes are joyful, except for Laval's friend Eris who has dreams about a Phoenix Tribe who are masters of Fire.While at home, Cragger finds his swamp under attack by the reawakened Ice Tribes, and hardly escapes with his Sister (who had secretly been the real reason for war in Chima in the first place).
The Tribes try to fight back, but find themselves defenceless against the forces of Ice, until Eris convinces Laval and Cragger to go inside Mount Cavora, because of her dream, much to their unbelief they meet Fluminox and discover the Phoenix, who have Fire CHI, the secret to the Ice Tribes' defeat, now the battle is on and the fate of an eternal Ice Age is in the 8 Heroes' hands.They manage to hold the Hunters back for a while,until the Hunters trapped the Phoenixes and blocked the ways to the Fire Chi,so they were able to spread in hole Chima.When the Phoenixes were freed,the 8 heroes started searching for the 8 Fire Harnesses,artifacts for performing the Great Illumination,an ancient ceremony that could cure the Hunters and make them good again.Also,the Hunters released the Ice Bears,the most powerful tribe in Chima,but they were defeated by the normal Bears.After the 8 heroes found the Harnesses, they flew into Mount Cavora and performed the Illumination, transforming Flinx into the Ultimate Phoenix and curing the Hunters.
The Phoenixes then left Chima and all of Chima's problems were solved. Bilbo and his company of cheerful dwarves managed to reclaim the Lonely Mountain from the vicious and cunning dragon, Smaug. While the dwarves stayed, Bilbo went back to his Hobbit-Hole to care take of his lovely garden. We hope you’ve had lots of fun playing with the LEGO® The Hobbit™ sets!

But toy collectors with discerning tastes? That’s usually gift card territory. But it doesn’t have to end that way! We’re here to help with a guide breaking down some of the most awesome action figure and toy options for the young and young at heart (mostly the latter). Whatever your articulated plastic budget is this year, we’ve got recommendations sure to please. Hit the jump for ComicsAlliance’s 2013 Holiday Gift Guide to Awesome Action Figures. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers S.H. Figuarts For the tokusatsu fan in your life, it’s tough to pin down a single figure from Bandai’s S.H. Figuarts line that’d henshin their holiday into something special — they’re all pretty awesome. Chances are, however, that if the person you’re buying for grew up in North America that they’ve got a major soft spot for Saban’s Mighty Morphin Power Rangers take on Toei’s Super Sentai tradition. While not every Ranger’s available just yet, figures of the famous Red, Green, White and Pink Rangers will all be available in time for the season of giving.
If in doubt, Tamashii Nations’ roughly $40 Armored Red Ranger is a solid place to start gifting. If that’s out of your budget, however, Bandai North America’s decidedly buffer 6″ Power Rangers Megaforce Armored Mighty Morphin Red Ranger is a decent alternative. Of course, we won’t blame anybody for buying both. RC Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shellraiser Tired of having to push your Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles figures around in their van like a common ruffian? Then the $50 RC Shellraiser from Playmates is probably for you. Actually, it’s pretty much for anyone who likes awesome things. It’s not perfectly in scale with Playmates’ main line of roughlty 5″ TMNT Turtles action figures, but neither is the non RC Shellraiser if you’re going by what you see on Nickelodeon’s CG animated series. So why not roll with the manufacturing practicalities and spring for a “sewer cover slinging subway car” that zips around via remote control? Or you can just buy both.
Star Wars Black 6″ Action Figures After some 35 years of 3.75″ tall releases, Hasbro finally expanded its core Star Wars action figure line with collector-focused 6″ toys. Presented under the new “Black” banner (alongside similarly detailed traditional 3.75″ toys), new larger versions of fan-favorites like Luke Skywalker, R2D2, Darth Maul, Han Solo and Boba Fett are now available as part of the series’ first two waves. Unlike their shorter counterparts from Hasbro and LEGO, these figures don’t lend themselves as easily to in-scale vehicles, but they do feature an extra dimension of detail. They can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with other popular toy lines such as Marvel Legends and Mattel’s DC Universe Classics. As of this holiday season, however, there is no 6″ Jar Jar Binks. Somehow, though, we will soldier on. Ethan Nicolle and his (much) younger brother Malachai’s Axe Cop is sitting pretty with a webcomic, a Dark Horse print comic and its new Fox ADHD animated series, making it a perfect time for Mezco to release its corresponding action figure line.
Mezco’s 4″ tall offerings aren’t quite as articulated as we’d prefer, but the toymaker’s sculpts and paint applications are dead-on and capture the energy of the Nicolle bros. creations perfectly. The $40 Wexter and Axe Cop box set is the purest expression of the comic’s translation to toys, providing fans with the eponymous axe-wielding hero and his sunglasses-sporting pet t-rex complete with gatling gun arms in one fell swoop. TWD fans have a lot of options when it comes to toys, but only Diamond Select and Art Asylum’s blocky Minimates line supplies a healthy balance of articulation, playability and… well… an aesthetic that’s safe to display across a multitude of environments. Sold in two-packs and a few choice box sets, the TWD Minimates line makes it affordable and efficient to assemble the Image Comic/AMC TV show’s cast of humans and zombies. Whether you like the look of Tony Moore and Charlie Adlard’s art or want to see likenesses based on the TV series, the cartoony presentation of the line ensures that every version of the franchise’s characters play together perfectly.
And the best part? Minimate construction allows collectors to painlessly rip apart and reassemble their figures to simulate TWD’s signature gore. Mattel’s Batman ’66 Action Figures Everybody and their grandmother’s toy company seems to be offering merchandise from the recently-licensed Batman ’66 television show, but Mattel’s 6″ action figures and Batmobile are arguably the best (or at least most convenient) all-around buy. They’re detailed enough to stand on a shelf and articulated and durable enough to hand to the young circus orphans or other wards in your life. Figures retail for roughly $16, with the Batmobile going for $50 at big box and specialty stores. Batman and Robin are available in a special two-pack at comic shops and online, with single-packed versions of Batman, Joker, Catwoman, Riddler and Penguin readily available elsewhere. For our money, the “Surf’s Up” Batman makes the best gift of the bunch, although the SDCC 2013 exclusive “Batusi Batman” will surely light up any fan’s life if you’re able to track it down on the secondary market for a decent price.
When writing up our “Best Toys of 2013” list we were torn between giving the title to Hasbro/Takara’s humongous Metroplex or the equally awesome Masterpiece Soundwave. It was a tough call, so you’ll have to forgive us for relegating Soundwave’s current ultimate figure to the Gift Guide. Think of the inclusion of Soundwave and his compatible team of transforming cassette tape robots (Laserbeak, Ravage, Rumble, Buzzsaw and Frenzy) here as a plug for the best Transformer you can buy someone this year… that’s shorter than 2 feet tall. Good luck finding one for its approximate $120 retail, however, as this SDCC 2013 debut/Toys “R” Us exclusive figure is now going for closer to $200 and higher online. One alternative is the less accessorized Takara version from Japan, or you can just bite the Energon cube and splurge for your favorite Transformer fan. We’re all familiar with LEGO’s Marvel, DC and TMNT offerings, but we’d be remiss not to point out LEGO’s none-too-subtle ThunderCats/Battle Beasts homage series (at least, in our opinion), Legends of Chima.
It’s cats and birds and lizards and apes and other anthropomorphic animals fighting over magic crystals in a fantasy land where laser swords are just as valid as tanks in combat. What’s not to love? Specifically, though, we’d like to direct CA readers to the “Gorzan’s Gorilla Striker” set, a $45-50 Gorilla mech that is sure to set anyone who has read a comic from the Silver Age’s heart ablaze. Even as a one-off buy, this set scratches a ton of comic book/manga/anime/sci-fi fan itches. It’s a robot, it’s a talking gorilla, it shoots missiles, it’s got a banana bandolier, it comes with a bunch of Planet of the Apes-style figures with giant war hammers — the reasons to gift this set go on and on. It’s been a few years since the modular Stikfas and Xevoz action figure lines went the way of the dodo, but ModiBot’s new line of buildable toy kits fills the void nicely with a vast array of sturdy options in multiple colorways. Available in kit form for $10 through ModiBot’s online shop, the basic figures are hyper articulated and completely customizable.
