#638 of Year 2 Lego 10197 Fire Brigade

It's the last day of Speed September 2011 and I thought I'd finish it with... more Lego?

#635 - #637 of Year 2 Sky Commanders Rollerball, Search and Rescue, Cable Raider

I purchased these earlier in the year and they were in Mint condition.  The entire card is intact - not even the peg hole has been punched out.  Wow.  And I got them for cheap because this is a line that close to nobody remembers.  But back in the day, the big toystore where I was growning up had a Kenner section with the big 4 - MASK, Centurions, Silverhawks and Sky Commanders.  The first 3 have got solid followings.  This line, despite having a cartoon and a toyline, well, was wiped from most people's collective memory.  But not mine.

#5 by 3B, Transformers Cyberverse, Optimus Prime

It isn't everyday that I get a guest post here.  But 3B from Killer B Hive have posted this Transformers up here.  Now, I'm not a huge fan of the Bayformers, so I've completely ignored the line, but apparently it is a nice line so I'm glad it's not being ignored here. - Novelty

Wow! I can't believe it's been nearly a year since my last review here on Toy A Day. I'm happy to be back and present a review on one my favorite fictional characters of all-time: Optimus Prime!

#634 0f Year 2 Shell V-Power Ferrari F430

It's still Speed September, and I start off a new week with something that was given out at petrol stations.  It's a Shell Ferrari F430.

#633 of Year 2 Lego 798 City Police Station

It's the final day of City Police week here on Toy a Day for Speed September, and I finish up the week with the new police station from this year.  Now this may look like an update of the one from three years ago, and in most ways it is.

#632 of Year 2 Lego 7744 City Police Headquarters

It's alsmost the end of City Police week of Speed September, and I'm gonna open one of the biggest box of Lego today.  It's from 2008 though, which isn't too old, but it's not available anymore in the stores either.

#631 of Year 2 Lego 7288 City Mobile Police Unit

Another day, another City Police set in the City Police week of Speed September 2011 here on Toy a Day.  Today, I'm opening another new (as in 2011) set, and like the set on Wednesday, this is another Police truck.

#630 of Year 2 Lego 7285 City Police Dog Unit

It's still Lego City Police week of Speed September, and today I head back to open a recent set.

#629 of Year 2 Lego 7034 World City Surveillance Truck

It's still Lego Police week of Speed September, and I'm going retro today... back to a World City set.  World City, for those not in the know was the forerunner of the City theme.  It bridges the gap between "Town" and "City".  And like always, there's a police subtheme, and this is one of the sets released way back in 2003.

#628 of Year 2 Lego 7286 City Prisoner Transport

It's still Lego Police week here on Toy a Day, part of Speed September, of course, and I continue with another new City set.

#627 of Year 2 Lego 7287 City Police Boat

It's the start of a new week for Speed September, and I'm starting Lego City Police week today.  I'll start off with something very new, the Police Boat from this year.

#626 of Year 2 Lego 8169 Racers Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4

It's still Speed September, and I've got this really nice Lamborghini ... Lego set.  It's part of the Racers theme, and it's the first of the (currenlty) two Lamborghini subthemes.

#625 of Year 2 Micr Machines Ship in a Bottle #6 7410 Power Boat

This is the last trio of Micro Machines that I'm opening for Speed September.. and it's not even a car.  It's still a vehicle though and it's a racing boat of sort, simply titled Power Boat.

#624 of Year 2 Micro Machines Snap Backs #4

It's still Speed September, and I'm moving through my Micro Machines unopened vehicles.  Today, it's the boringly named Snap backs #4.

#623 of Year 2 Micro Machines The Coolest Cars! Lumina stock car and Ferrari Daytona GTS

It's still Speed September and I move on to Galoob's Micro Machines.  I love the ads when I was younger - the speed talking and all the zaniness of the vehicles.  The mini scale would later be made even more popular by Mighty Max and Polly Pocket, the later of which is has been relaunched, but Micro Machines seems to be the granddaddy of them all.

#622 of Year 2 Hot Wheels Back to the Future Delorean

It's still Speed September, and since I've just gone through three Hot Wheels figures, I guess I can do a fourth one.  This one though, isn't from Speed Racer, but a whole different franchise altogether.

#621 of Year 2 Speed Racer Choppin' Chopper

It's my final trio of Speed Racer sets from Hot Wheels, and this is just a small carded figures pack... more or less.

#620 of Year 2 Speed Racer Racer X

It's another day, and it's still Speed September though... and this is the toyline that lent half its name to this month's theme... Speed Racer!  Racer X is the antagonist of the series (I think, I've not watched the movie or the anime) and he has a rather important position in the franchise.

#619 of Year 2 Speed Racer Mach 5

It's Speed September and I'm going to start my Speed Racer run.  I'll start off with Speed Racer himself and his vehicle Mach 5.  These are the movie figures from Hot Wheels.  That's the latest incarnation of the franchise that started out as a Japanese anime in the 60s.

#618 of Year 2 Lego 8679 Cars 2 Tokyo International Circuit

It's day six and wait, didn't I only have five of these Lego Cars 2 sets?  Well, I was at TRU the other day and I decided since I was enjoying the series so much, I might as well pick up the huge big limited set from TRU.  And here it is.  The Tokyo International Circuit.

#617 of Year 2 Lego 8206 Cars 2 Tokyo Pit Stop

It's another day here, and it's still Cars 2 week of Speed September.  It's been Lego Cars 2 so far this week and today is no exception!

#616 of Year 2 Lego 8487 Cars 2 Flo's V8 Cafe

It's Day 4 of Cars week... and I'm gonna break the monotony a bit by opening the biggest set that I have today, Flo's V8 Cafe!

#615 of Year 2 Lego 8426 Cars 2 Escape at Sea

It's day 3 of Lego Cars 2 Week here on Toy a Day, and it's still Speed September this month.  And for a change, I'm gonna open a set that features a submarine car and a ship today.

#614 of Year 2 Lego 8423 Cars 2 World Grand Prix Racing Rivalry

It's still Speed September as I continue with Lego Cars 2 week here on Toy a Day.  Today we move on to the protagonist and the sort of antagonist of the movie, McQueen and the Italian F1 car, Francesco.

#613 of Year 2 Lego 8424 Cars 2 Mater's Spy Zone

It's Speed September here on Toy a Day and I'm dedicating this week to Cars 2.  I just watched it over the weekend and I liked the movie.  I'll start off with the hero of the movie, Tow Mater!

#610 - #612 of Year 2 Hotwheels MotU

I'm close to running out of toys for the rest of this year - this was only supposed to be Toy a Day for 2010, but I've gone on to do another 8 months after that and this is the start of the nineth month - and it's a themed month.  Speed September 2011 is the theme this month and I start off with this trio of MotU vehicles.

#609 of Year 2 G I Joe Cobra Gunship

This is the final of the four Rise of Cobra vehicles that I've got to open, and it's also the biggest of the four.
