Company to Launch Line of Buddies that
Inspires Boys to — Go Anywhere, Be Anything —
BELOIT, Wis. — (December 13, 2016) PlayMonster LLC announced today it has acquired the worldwide license for Wonder Crew®, the headline-making toy line designed to empower boys to connect, nurture and build empathy through friendship, imagination and adventure.
Wonder Crew is turning the table on the conversation about gender stereotypes and toys, which has largely been focused on presenting more options for girls to play. Combining the adventure of an action figure with the emotional connection of a stuffed animal, the 15″ Wonder Crew buddies have coordinated role play accessories for their kid owners.
“We are thrilled to bring Wonder Crew into the PlayMonster portfolio,” said Bob Wann, Chief PlayMonster of PlayMonster LLC. “We know from consumer research that boys ages 2 – 5 are already playing with dolls, yet there is a distinct hole in the marketplace for them. We believe it’s the perfect time to introduce this important toy line to mass market as big retailers and our industry are together breaking down gender stereotypes to help boys develop their emotional maturity including compassion and kindness.
Laurel Wider, a psychotherapist and mom, created Wonder Crew after her son came home from preschool one day and announced that “boys aren’t supposed to cry.” Frustrated by many of the messages boys were (and weren’t) receiving and inspired by the way play influences child development, Wider created Wonder Crew to encourage kids to connect emotionally and be their full selves. Launched on Kickstarter in March 2015, Wonder Crew quickly drew praise from parents and media alike, and earned Wider an invitation from the White House to speak during a conference on breaking stereotypes in media and toys.
“As Wonder Crew reaches market scale and the industry redefines stereotypes on dolls and other toys, I feel fortunate to have PlayMonster as a partner,” said Wider. “PlayMonster’s full commitment to the brand, combined with the company’s resources and our shared values, promises to deliver amazing adventures.”
As a result of PlayMonster’s commitment to Wonder Crew, the line will hit retail shelves early 2017. Wonder Crew, targeted to boys ages 2 – 5, includes four buddies of different races each wearing Superhero gear, and packaged complete with a matching cape and mask for the child. Adventure Packs in the themes of builder, explorer and snuggler (for bedtime) will be sold separately and also come with matching gear for the child.
With the typical Funko pop fair we also get these two vintage “Barbarian” style figures

Hello, everyone. Welcome to our Japanese learning series hosted by Crystal Base. We hope you enjoy our first video in this ever growing series.

Hi MOTU Fans! We wanted to share the final packaging of the MOTU Ultimate Figures with you. He-Man, Skeletor, Faker, Ram Man, and Teela will be blister packaged with their accessories on a vintage style exploding background backing card and logo treatment. Included with each character is a mini-comic style backing card with the character bio on one side and a brand new mini-comic cover style artwork on the other. The back side of the backing card will have all new characteraction artwork across the top on a classic 8-back influenced design.
We also have new Priority International Mail rates that are 20% lower than previously used. We will also be refunding the difference to all existing international orders based on these new rates over the coming weeks.
The pre-order for the Ultimates figures and other new MOTU items has been extended in the Super7 Webstore until 11:59 PM PST on Sunday, December 4th.
By the Power of Grayskull!”
Also, Super7 has posted on Facebook that these are resealable. See the Four Horsemen’s Mythic Legions for an example of mock-clamshell packaging. The blister on the front is a entire piece of plastic with flanges around all four sides, which allows a collector to slide the cardback in and out, and then remove or replace the figure and accessories

Handwritten items and documents, at one time, was the stuff of legend, but now it’s almost a lost art. The ability to write has trickled down to basic print and almost at that level seems overtly caveman-esque. (If you have seen what my penmanship and hand signature currently look like, you would understand why).
The Jot 4.5 e writer
Some believe it’s the advancement of technology, the advent of texting, and using computers that has declined our ability to write well. I also believe it has a strong factor only because the less you do anything the worse you become at it after time.
This is where Boogie boards Scribble n’ Play Featuring Colorburst™ and Jot 4.5 e writer come into play. Their ever reusable screens feels like a tablet but are not too straining on the eyes at all. This makes these boards easy to use, making them engaging for young children. In the long run, this will help them build that core strength in their fingers to enable them to write better.
After we gave our 5 year old the Jot to help her practice writing her letters and numbers, in a short time her penmanship increased 10 fold. Also, its design is easy for young hands to hold, which helps out a lot.
These boards can be simply used as scratch paper and/or playing great old fashion games like hangman.
The Scribble and Play’s Colorburst feature also brings out the creative side with a rainbow of colors at the touch of the screen. This really makes the product something kids and adults alike will want to always use.
Boogie Boards are something every household needs and, with the holiday season upon us, will make an excellent and useful gift under the tree.
From the press release:
Available in a multitude of global retail markets, Boogie Boards have become ubiquitous when it comes to electronic writing with the most natural feel of handwriting.
Seemingly “old school,” the Boogie Board technology was originally conceived in 1993 by two scientists; Professor Bill Doane of the Liquid Crystal Institute at Kent State University and William Manning of Manning and Napier, Rochester New York. After years of development, and more than 50 patents, these two experts were able to bring this unique cholesteric display technology product to life for everyday consumers.
Today, the Professor’s emphasis on the importance of traditional handwriting in the digital age for learning, “relearning”, improved memory, reading comprehension and overall cognitive development purposes is supported by researchers worldwide. In fact several recent studies have cited that handwriting can actually make you smarter.
Boogie Board proudly exclusively manufactures its LCD screens right here in the United States; with products available nationwide at most major retailers at a very affordable price.
