Product Description

Lead your dynasty through 2000 years of history in ancient Egypt. Gather as much fame and honor as possible. Place the most pharaohs. Establish unequalled monuments and use the fertility of the Nile. But don’t neglect your people and their culture. And pay homage to the gods — lead by the sun god Ra — otherwise the fame of your dynasty is quickly lost.Back by popular demand, this is a classic Reiner Knizia, and sure to be a game you play over and over again!

Frontier Logs Building Set with 20 Action Figures

81MFPH43CRL Frontier Logs Building Set with 20 Action Figures Frontier Logs Building Set with 20 Action Figures Use this set’s single-, double-, and triple-notched wooden logs to build the frontier trading post, for which easy-to-follow, 16-step photographic instructions are included. Or let your imagination run free and build your own Wild West structures. In addition to the building parts, this set includes a sign (“Fort Frontier”), nine cowboys and nine Indians, and two horses. Compare to the similar Frontier Trading Post & Tee Pees, which has fewer pieces and lacks the figurines, but features two neat cloth teepees not included here. Buy both sets and you’ll have enough pieces to carpet most of the Dakotas. –Richard Farr
Customer Review: Very nice set at a reasonable price!
I was a bit wary about ordering a generic brand of Lincoln Logs but this set was good quality. I found the “real” Lincoln Logs have a little bit smoother of a groove in the pieces, but these are still good quality and if I need more (which I don’t after buying a set of Lincoln Logs and this set) I would buy these again. The value can’t be beat and the kids have a lot of fun with them.

Transformers Universe Deluxe Class Classic Series Action Figure – Autobot Prowl with Acid Blasters

41%2BZ%2BB7Ss2L Transformers Universe Deluxe Class Classic Series Action Figure   Autobot Prowl with Acid Blasters Transformers Universe Deluxe Class Classic Series Action Figure – Autobot Prowl with Acid Blasters Universe Deluxe: Prowl is configured with a pair of white shoulder-mounted rockets, and is equipped with a black blaster rifle. The Universe Prowl is fairly loyal to the Gen 1 Prowl. His color scheme is based around his police markings, and his overall aesthetic seems to be influenced both by the Classics line and the Movie continuity figures. Prowl is distinguished by unwavering tenacity, and can generally be relied upon for expert tactical advice, but he is sometimes hindered by his overriding compulsion to find the logic within a given situation. At the beginning of Transformers: The Movie, Prowl was aboard a shuttle bound for Autobot City when the vessel was assaulted by a force of Decepticons. Attempting to repel a barrage of heavy fire, Prowl was destroyed after suffering a direct blast from Scavenger.
Customer Review: Another Love Letter to G1 Transformer Fans
This isn’t my favorite of the Classics line, but that in no way is a criticism of the product. Prowl is a wonderful homage to the character we all knew from the original Transformers cartoon, and articulated in ways the G1 toy never dreamed of. The “wings”, which are his doors, can be positioned freely, which is a real bonus.
