Toy A Day: Toy a Day January

So here I was with this big box of gitd stuff in January. I decided to open a Lego set as my first set, but after that I was opening stuff from this big box, so hey, I decided to make it a theme month and gitd January was born. It was so successful that I decided to replicate theme months for the rest of the year. Here's the list of toys I opened in glow-in-the-dark (gitd) January:

February was Femme Fatale February, where I opened toys with a female theme. I don't think I had enough female characters to open, so I did the "theme" thing where I opened entire lines if at least one of the figures is female. Here's the list of toys I opened for Femme Fatale February, with #29 being the January tie-in to the theme:

March originally started off as Mecha March, until I realised of course that I don't have 31 Mecha to open for the month. So the month was transformed into all things mechanical. The title was obtained from the artwork at Articulated Discussions and was punctuated as Mecha.nic.al March. There was also a preview photo for the month.

The month kicked off with the 4 Star Trek figures at the end of February and continued with the following.

April was the start of a 2-month period featuring the Masters of the Universe, with a preview of the opening of Roboto in March. April is a special time for me because it was during this time that I got the bulk of my vintage MotU collection. This April also marks the 25th anniversary of the Princess of Power line. The whole 2 months was planned out in advance with a preview photo:
