So an hour ago, Marvel released the final trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. I was so happy when I saw it because I thought it was going to look cool and make me laugh. And that's exactly what it did. I still cannot wait for this movie to come out. And so, here it is and I hope you all enjoy.

The Lion Guard: Ono's Idol
Returning to the Lion Guard episode reviews, here we're talking about the newest episode from a few days ago, the Lion Guard: Ono's Idol. This actually might come as a surprise, but I think this was one of the episodes that were coming I wasn't incredibly hyped for. I mean, I was obviously excited like always, but from what I was hearing and seeing of some of the clips that were being released about it, I just wasn't getting that hooked onto it. But as we got closer to it, it did start to look a little to me. And so, did this episode live up to what I was expecting... yeah, I would say so. I wouldn't exactly say it's one of the best, but it's definetly incredible. And, yeah, if you didn't see it yet and you want to, go watch it and then rad this because I'm going to talk about the whole story. What's the story? It opens up with a bunch of birds from all over the Pride Lands, including Ono, going somewhere to meet someone named Hadithi who's said to be some kind of hero that Ono really looks up to. Simba and Nala agree to throw a celebration for him and Hadithi says that it's apparently tradition to build a bird hero a special nest made out of the leaves from the tallest tree in the Pride Lands for the ceremony. So Ono and him go off for a while and Kion, Bunga, Fuli and Beshte go to find the tallest tree and get the leaves like Hadithi said. And more of the episode is Ono and Hadithi going around either to talk and so Hadithi can teach Ono some move he apparently knows and the others are looking for the leaves. Though, eventually, as Hadithi and Ono are heading back to Pride Rock for the ceremony, they see hyenas attacking some animals. Ono decides to fly down to help them while Hadithi goes to the ceremony but while there, he begins to feel guilty about leaving them and so he and the rest of the Guard go back to save them and help Ono. Meanwhile, Ono is trapped on some rocks and the Hyenas are close to the other animals but then the Guard and Hadithi show up and he explains that all the stories about him being a hero aren't true but Ono already kinda figured it out along with the fact that he didn't have any super cool move that Ono was saying he wanted him to teach him. Anyway, they stop the hyenas and the ceremony goes on and it's celebrating Ono instead. And, yeah, that's it. With each passing episode of this show, the crew behind the scenes are still doing great with the casting. They got John O'Hurley to do the voice of Hadithi and he's really good. He's also good in the song here too. The song here is like the one in the last episode. It's good, just not great in my opinion. But it's still enjoyable. Listen.
And the whole thing with the Guard going of to get the leaves is really funny. Especially when they found the biggest tree and Bunga climbs it but then he sees the real biggest tree. And the whole thing with Ono and Hadithi is also really good because Hadithi is going around telling these kinda untrue advices to other animals and Ono is trying to explain to everyone what he thinks it really means. And the final fight with the Guard and hyenas is also really good, especially with the animation they use. And, speaking of which, the animation is still great. And I also really like the whole thing with Ono and Hadithi with Ono just trying to live up to his hero. I think there's a ton of people who can relate to that. And the ending where everyone starts celebrating Ono too. I really like that. It was a nice and happy ending for him. And yeah, those are really my small thoughts on Ono's Idol. It's not one of the best Lion Guard episodes, or one of the worst. It's not as good as say Never Judge A Hyena By Its Spots or Lions Of The Outlands, but I still really like this episode and I'm excited to see it again and I'm excited for the next episode next month with Beshte And The Hippo Lanes. I can't wait for that. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

My collections
Well, this is it. This is my entry where I show all of you my many collections. I said I was going to do this before and now we're finally here. I was really excited to do this. And before we get started, there are a few things to know first. First off, in this I'm going to be saying what the thing is and then show pictures of what they are and then I'm going to talk about it. There's going to be a lot of pictures here and it took me a long time to do a lot of these on one day. I didn't do them all on one day, but I did do a lot on one day. The next thing is that I'm going to be show a little more than my collections. I'm also going to show all of you parts of my house and my pets. I don't know. I just felt like doing that. And so, without any more delays, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy this.
My room:
So firstly I'm going to show all of you my bedroom and there's a lot of history in this room. Why, you might ask? Well, I'm going to explain. Firstly, this was originally my brother's room, but then I was born and we ended up sharing it for a few years. Where my desk and shelf are is where our bed was. We had a bunk bed. I was on the bottom and he was on the top. But then about maybe 5 or 6 or 7 years ago he got his own room where our sittingroom used to be. It's now his bedroom and this room is all mine now. But then I had the bunk bed and my desk was where my bed is now. But then in Christmas of 2015, we changed everything. We got me a new bed for me and we changed where they were and got me the shelf you can see and we changed the carpet as well. And the picture on the desk there, I don't know if you can clearly see it, but there's a picture of a man there and he was my granddad. We used to call him da. But he died in 2009. That was probably one of the saddest times in my life when that happened. And actually, this might sound weird, but when that happened. I feel like my life changed then because I think when that happened, my life got a little more serious and I was only 10 years old when that happened too. I just sorta felt that when it happened, something in my head was just sorta changing, like my life was changing. It's kinda hard to explain, but that's how it is. And I love this room. It might not look very big from where I took these pictures but it's actually a little bigger than you might think. Not a whole lot bigger but a little. And so, let's continue.
My posters:
Now these are my posters in my room. I have a lot of SpongeBob ones and Simpsons ones but that's because I had a lot of SpongeBob and Simpson comics before and I hung them up. And I also have a few Naruto ones too. I got the one that's on my wardrobe at a comic con 2 years ago. Yeah, I go to comic cons and I love them. They're always awesome and fun to go to. And those are my posters, let's move on.
My drawings:
These are 2 drawings I did of SpongeBob and Chowder free handed. I was really happy with the way they turned out. And my SpongeBob one is actually SpongeBob looking like Sora from Kingdom Hearts. I did that a couple of years ago. I got that idea off the top of my head. It combines two of my favourite things ever, SpongeBob and Kingdom Hearts and it's SpongeBob in Sora's clothes and holding a spatula Keyblade with a Krabby Patty as the keychain. I thought that was pretty clever and everyone liked it too and they like my Chowder picture too. And I like how they turned out.
My electronics:
Now we move onto some of my entertainment devises. The first is my laptop which is what I write these entries on and next to it is my DVD player which, obviously, I watch my DVDs on and we'll get to those in a second. Then we have my iPod shuffle. I've brought that up a few times in my Daniel Danger stories. Speaking of my Daniel Danger stories, and I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I'm going to anyway, I always like to imagine that if I ever got my Daniel Danger stories turned into something else for entertainment, I like to imagine that it'll be turned into a Netflix show and whenever I listen to a lot of the music on my iPod, I like to imagine the things in the stories happening in the episodes and the music going along with the scene. And I thought of some trailers for it too. I literally cannot stop thinking that ever since I first did. I love doing that. It is so much fun. Especially whenever I'm out for a walk and I'm running all the time and listening to it and imagining it. It gives me so much excited. I know that sounds really weird. But I can't help but enjoy every second of it. The kind of stuff that's on it are some stuff from Disney, Pixar, Kingdom Hearts, YouTube videos, Naruto, interviews with actors, some Lion Guard songs and a whole lot more. And after that we have my 3DS which is what I use to play 3DS games on like Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance, Smash Bros. and some others. That's great fun too.
My playroom:
So this is my playroom which in my basement and as you can see, this is where all my other game consoles ae like my PlayStation 2, 3 and 4, my Wii, Wii U and 2 TVs and some more of my posters and other art things. And on the other TV is a painting I did of myself which is something we were told to do in school. I use the TV on the desk to play my PlayStation 2 and I use the one on the wall to play all my other consoles.
My mascot stuff:
Something I may or may not of mentioned before is that I was actually a rugby mascot before 4 times and these are things from that time. I was the mascot for Munster in 2004, then I was the mascot for Munster again in 2006, then I was the mascot for Ireland in 2007 and then I was the mascot for Munster again in 2010. I remember a lot of the things that happened during that time. These are some things from then. There's some newspapers with me in them and some pictures and DVDs and even my first ever boots from when I was maybe 4 years old and I did it for the very first time. Every time I did it, it was a huge honour.
My Kingdom Hearts collection:
Now we come to the collections. And what better way to do that than starting off with my favourite thing ever, Kingdom Hearts. As you can see, I have all the games including 2.8, which I recently got and there's also my Sora costume and my Keyblade and some mangas that someone made of the video games which are so hilarious a lot and some other things in there as well like some other clothes and I have a few Kingdom Hearts keychains. I of course have great pride in all of these because, well yeah, it's Kingdom Hearts. Can it really get any better? No, I don't think it can.
My Disney Classics:
Next up is my entire Disney Classics collection which is every single Classic as of right now from 1 to 54 and I keep all the discs inside this folder. As you can see, I was not kidding when I said I'm a huge Disney collector and this is the biggest reason why. I love having these movies. And I can't wait to get more like Moana when it comes out. And yes, I even have the bad Classics too like the Black Cauldron and Home on the Range and some others because they are Classics and I can't complete the collection without them. This is probably my favourite DVD collection I have. And I love it. You all know I love Disney Classics and that I've talked about them a lot. They're all in order of release obviously. (All my DVD collections you'll be seeing will be in order of release too.) And all of them have the number on them to say what Classic they are like how Snow White is number 1, it says it on the side. I have them all lined up on my shelf in that order. I seriously can't say enough about this except I love it.
My Pixar movies:
Next is all my Pixar movies from Toy Story to Finding Dory. Next to my Disney Classics collection, this my favourite or second DVD collection. Pixar is still my favourite film studio and I love to have these. I do have a case for these movies too but I forgot to take a picture of it. And I actually have all the Disney Classics and Pixar movies and DreamWorks movies and comic book movies on the shelf you saw a minute ago. And I love having these too.
My DreamWorks movies:
While it doesn't look like much, I'm still collecting all the DreamWorks movies. I know what you might be thinking. About how did I see all of them to make that ranking of all the DreamWorks movies last year. Simple. I've also seen a lot of them online and that's how. And I still like having and watching these. And yes, like the Disney Classics, I even have the bad ones too. But I feel like having the complete collection too.
My comic book movies:
And next is my comic book movies. I have a lot of them and the discs go into this folder. As of right now I have a lot of them up to Suicide Squad. I have the original Superman movies, the original Batman movies (yes, even Batman & Robin, but that's only because they came in a box set and because I like having the complete collection of everything in terms of DVDs), the X-Men movies (they all also came in a box set except Deadpool which is there too), the original Spider-Man movies, the Dark Knight trilogy, the Amazing Spider-Man movies, the M.C.U movies so far and the DC.E.U movies so far, the three Blade movies, Watchmen, the two original Fantastic 4 movies as well as the 2003 Daredevil movie and the 2011 Green Lantern movie (I know, weird, isn't it). And every single one of these are in order of release date.
My SpongeBob Squarepants collection:
Starting off my TV stuff is my favourite TV show ever, SpongeBob. I have so many things here like DVDs that include seasons 1, 2, 3 and 4 and the two SpongeBob movies. I'm still working on getting the other seasons. I have a lot more SpongeBob things but I think there's too much to show there so I'm just going with the DVDs. And I love having these. These are the only seasons that are technically good. And the other things I have are some comics, I used to have a lot more SpongeBob comics but my mam got rid of most of them so there's only two left, also, I'm in one of those comics. I'm not kidding, I really am in one of those when I sent a photo there of me with all my SpongeBob stuff and my costume. Yeah, I used to have a SpongeBob costume. My dad made it for me out of a huge box that I put over myself. I don't have it anymore, but I'm tell ya that anyway. I also have other SpongeBob books, cards, stuffed characters, a puzzle ball, a table mat, a sign, annuals, a wood carving of Patrick that my dad made me, some games, a t-shirt, a dressing gown, tiny figures of SpongeBob, Patrick, Mr. Krabs, Squidward and Gary and there's also a pillow there that I made myself in Home Ec. I made it into SpongeBob's head. And the reason why there're three pictures is because there was so many things I thought I should do more than one.
My Family Guy DVDs:
Next is my Family Guy DVDs which include seasons 1-10. I'm still working on getting the rest. And I like having these too. I even have the season that has my favourite episode in it in season 10. Read my top 10 Family Guy episodes list if you haven't already to know what that episode is. And I love having these and I can't wait to get the rest.
My Lion Guard collection:
Now we move onto my Lion Guard things. There is so much here. I have the three current DVDs which include the movie, Return of the Roar and then there are the TV DVDs with some episodes in them which are Unleash the Power and Life in the Pride Lands. There's also my paintings I did on my laptop I showed on this blog a few times. I printed those because I was going to do something with them but that didn't happen so I decided to hang onto them. There's also my comics as well along with some posters and my stuffed Lion Guard characters. I also have a box set that I got for Christmas of 2016 of the five main Lion Guard characters. There's also 2 water bottles and a cup and straw I got myself as well as a Kion Christmas Tree ornament that my sister got for me and there's a Kion plate that my dad got for me. We got those three things at the Disney shop in London. That shop is absolutely amazing. If you ever go to London, I recommend going there. It is amazing. I promise. I've gone there a few times when I went over to see my dad. I also have the Lion King 2, which isn't a Lion Guard thing but I just wanted to show it anyway because they are connected. And that's all my Lion Guard stuff. Also, I can't show it, and I already said it before, but I also still have the Lion Guard iPhone game.
My graphic novels and character guides:
These are all my Marvel and DC graphic novels. And I have a lot of those. I've talked about some of these before and now. I have a Justice League one as well as the Killing Joke and the Dark Knight Returns. Then with Marvel, I have some pocket books which are small books of comics from the '60s or '70s or even '80s. I then also have some Spider-Man, X-Men, Iron Man, Hulk, Fantastic Four and other Marvel graphic novels as well like Civil War and Infinity, Avengers vs. X-Men and even the Secret Invasion, Siege and Shadowland. And under that are the Marvel and DC character guides that tell a lot of heroes and villains from both of those and what they can do, who they are and other stuff like that.
My Naruto collection:
Now we come to my anime stuff and manga stuff. First off is my Naruto collection. As you can see, I have a lot of Naruto mangas. I don't have them all. But I'm working on getting all those too. The reason that there's a separate picture of another Naruto manga is because I got it sometime after I finished taking the picture above it and I didn't want to redo the first one. I also have a lot of DVDs which include all of the original series and Naruto Shippuden: Season 1 and I also have Naruto The Movie: Legend of the Stone of Gelel. As well as a box set of the first five Naruto Shippuden movies an they are, the first one, Bonds, the Will of Fire, the Lost Tower and Blood Prison and a separate one with the Last: Naruto The Movie. I've only been able to see the rest online. I also have a Naruto Leaf Village headband, a shuriken, two t-shirts, a wallet and a Chunin jacket jumper with a leaf village headband front on the hood. And you can't see it, but one of those mangas is actually signed, number 27. When I went to a Comic Con in 2015, my brother and I actually saw one of the actors there, as in Stephanie Sheh who plays Hinata and she signed one of my mangas I actually got that same day. But even past all that, I love this collection and I can't wait to get the rest of the mangas and DVDs.
My Bleach collection:
Continuing my anime stuff, we come to my Bleach stuff. I have a ton of mangas and they're all 3 in 1 mangas. I haven't finished with this collection yet. I also have a ton of DVDs which include some seasons. I really just buy the DVDs if I see them and if I can and want to. I even have one of the DVDs signed by Johnny Yong Bosch himself who voiced Ichigo in the show. I met him at a Comic Con in Cork a while back. I don't remember which one but I did.
My Fairy Tail collection:
Next on my manga/anime stuff is my collection of Fairy Tail things. I have six mangas and I have Seasons 1-4 of the anime DVDs. And Season 1 is also signed too by Todd Haberkorn who voiced Natsu. I saw him at another Comic Con and what he wrote on it was "To Daniel, stay fired up." If you know the show or manga, then you know what that means.
My Fullmetal Alchemist collection:
Finishing my anime stuff is my Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood box collection. All of these are in a box and it's the entire show and there's two discs inside each case. And I love this anime as you all already know. It's probably my third favourite anime. And I am super happy I have this because I love to watch it a lot. And I also have all the manga collection with three in each one like some of the ones I showed with my Naruto collection. I have every single one and one of them is actually signed again. It's the second one with Scar on it. I met Scar's voice actor, J. Michael Tatum, at a Comic Con a while back and I asked him to sign it for me. And, like the Naruto collection, I'm really glad to have all of these.
My Harry Potter collection:
The reason the DVDs look like that is because they're in a box set and two movies are in one case and that's why. And beneath that are some pictures that were taken of me the day my mam, dad and brother went to the Harry Potter Experience. I got to wear a Gryffindor cloak and sit on a broom and it was in front of a green screen and that's where that second picture came from and I'm also holding my wand. And the one above it is all of us inside the Weasley's car and it looks like my brother is driving and we're driving away from the Hogwarts Express. And also the one with me on the broom was also a video I have on a memory stick and it's me flying around different locations in the Harry Potter universe.
My Middle Earth DVDs:
After Harry Potter, we have my Middle Earth DVDs which include all the Lord of the Rings movies and all the Hobbit movies. I still feel that the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter are kinda the same and that's why they're this is going after Harry Potter. And of course I was going to have the Lord of the Rings. I mean everyone says that it's one of the best film trilogies ever. And I love having them as well like the rest of all of this. And I do have the books and the Harry Potter books, I just didn't think of them when doing these pictures.
My Star Wars DVDs:
These are all my current Star Wars movies from episode I-VII. I know I don't have the episode I case but that's because I couldn't find it. I keep the disk inside that case with all the Disney Classics I showed a minute ago along with all the rest and the Harry Potter movies and the Middle Earth movies. The more and more Classics come out, the more I'll take all those franchises out to make room for more Classics. Same with the shelf which is where almost all my DVDs are in my room. But anyway, I like having these, even the prequel movies. And I have the original trilogy in one case.
My Sonic the Hedgehog games:
Get this, when I was doing these pictures I actually thought I had more Sonic games but really these are all the ones I do have and I like the ones I do have. I actually do have Sonic Heroes, but I don't have the cover on the case so that's why that's not here. But still, I find enjoyment in all the ones I have here.
My Batman Arkham games:
And these are my Arkham games for the PS3. And I know you might be wonder why I don't have Arkham Knight, especially when I've talked about it before. Well here's the truth, I have played and finished the game, but I was only able to play it at my cousin's house because, and I promise, I am not lying here, I've gotten Arkham Knight for the PS4 four times but every time I put it into my PS4, it always says that the disc is damaged somehow. I promise, that is the truth. But these games are still fun.
My amiibos:
And all of these are my amiibos for Smash Bros. I don't have them all yet but I will soon. And having the ones I do have so far is really great. And if you play Smash Bros. and you know what amiibos are, then you should know what they do. But if you don't play it and you don't know, I'll explain. Amiibos are little figures you can use in Smash Bros. for either Wii U or 3DS and you can level them up and make them your ally or make them fight you. I actually kinda regret taking them out of their boxes but yeah, I did and I like having them all.
My Disney Infinity figures:
After my amiibos, we have my Disney Infinity figures. I've talked about Disney Infinity before so if you haven't read my review, read it to find out how it works. Overall these are really cool to have. I like using them, they're cool and the more I get, the more I love having them. And it's fun to put these characters on the circle of the Disney Infinity play base and play as them. I always have a great time with this game and nonstop fun.
My Toy Story banner:
This is something I made in school. We were told to make a 3D model and so I made this. I was really please with the way it turned out and I added a wood carved Woody and Buzz to go on the sides. I asked my teacher to cut them out and he did and then I designed everything else. My family was really proud of me when I did It and I'm still really happy with the way it looks.
My pets:
Now these are my pets I've mentioned a few times. My dog's name is Bob and we've had him for 12 years and my rabbit's name is Fluffy and we've had him for 7 years. I actually remember the days we got both of them. Bob actually lives inside the house. He used to live outside but 2 years ago, we decided to have him live inside because he's getting old. And Fluffy lives in a hutch outside. And where I got the names were kinda strange. When we got Bob, I was really young. I think I was only 5 years old and so I was really into Bob the Builder and that's where that name came from and with Fluffy, that name came from a long story but here it is. So one day at school there was a petting zoo van and there were rabbits there and one of my classmates just thought of the name Fluffy and so that's where that name comes from. And I love these two.
My Daniel Danger costume:
This was my original Daniel Danger costume I had for a while the t-shirt was something my dad gave me and he painted a D on the front as well as spelt Daniel Danger on the back. I also have the gloves and the red t-shirt is something he cut to make me a cape. And we actually got a rubber Captain America mask and we painted the A to look like a D. And the sword is something my dad also made for me and the shield was something I got at a medieval festival and I painted it to look like that. That was my original costume but now thanks to the Daniel Danger stories I've done on this blog, I redesigned it a little and I'm so glad I did. because I think it looks better now. Like I got rid of the D and wings on the mask, I made the mask into a helmet, I took away the Daniel Danger on the back and I added pants and boots. I haven't made them for real but that's how I designed it in the story. And this is actually kinda cool to wear.
My Toy Story toy collection:
These are my Toy Story toy collectables. I love these things. They're like action figures and there's another two that are like these but I don't have them and they're Bullseye and Lotso. And the paper under them are little certificates that came with them that John Lasseter himself wrote saying these were made using data from the original Toy Story movies. I'm also hoping to get the rest of the other toys from the movies too. And like I said, I love these things. They're almost exactly like the actual characters from the movies. The only few differences aren't that noticeable. One is that Andy isn't written on their boots. Another is some of the facial stuff you can kinda tell, especially with Woody. But they're still awesome and they talk the same way.
Lollipop:
Finishing us off is Lollipop. Lollipop is a monkey teddy I've had literally since I was maybe 4 or 5 years old. I got him at a zoo when I was on a school tour with my playschool. And the reason I called him Lollipop is because when we were on the bus going back to school from the tour, I was trying to think of a name for him and everyone else around me had actual Lollipops and so that's where I got the name. Lollipop is my favourite toy. I love him and I take him everywhere. Okay. Not "everywhere." But I always bring him on holidays and he always sleeps with me, which I know may sound creepy, especially given how I'm 17, but that's the truth. I just love him so much. He's also a puppet. That's why he doesn't have legs. You can put your hand in and make him do things. And everyone, that's my collections entry. I had a lot of fun doing this and I hope all of you liked it too. Thank you all for looking and reading and please comment to tell me what you think.
My room:
So firstly I'm going to show all of you my bedroom and there's a lot of history in this room. Why, you might ask? Well, I'm going to explain. Firstly, this was originally my brother's room, but then I was born and we ended up sharing it for a few years. Where my desk and shelf are is where our bed was. We had a bunk bed. I was on the bottom and he was on the top. But then about maybe 5 or 6 or 7 years ago he got his own room where our sittingroom used to be. It's now his bedroom and this room is all mine now. But then I had the bunk bed and my desk was where my bed is now. But then in Christmas of 2015, we changed everything. We got me a new bed for me and we changed where they were and got me the shelf you can see and we changed the carpet as well. And the picture on the desk there, I don't know if you can clearly see it, but there's a picture of a man there and he was my granddad. We used to call him da. But he died in 2009. That was probably one of the saddest times in my life when that happened. And actually, this might sound weird, but when that happened. I feel like my life changed then because I think when that happened, my life got a little more serious and I was only 10 years old when that happened too. I just sorta felt that when it happened, something in my head was just sorta changing, like my life was changing. It's kinda hard to explain, but that's how it is. And I love this room. It might not look very big from where I took these pictures but it's actually a little bigger than you might think. Not a whole lot bigger but a little. And so, let's continue.
My posters:
Now these are my posters in my room. I have a lot of SpongeBob ones and Simpsons ones but that's because I had a lot of SpongeBob and Simpson comics before and I hung them up. And I also have a few Naruto ones too. I got the one that's on my wardrobe at a comic con 2 years ago. Yeah, I go to comic cons and I love them. They're always awesome and fun to go to. And those are my posters, let's move on.
My drawings:
These are 2 drawings I did of SpongeBob and Chowder free handed. I was really happy with the way they turned out. And my SpongeBob one is actually SpongeBob looking like Sora from Kingdom Hearts. I did that a couple of years ago. I got that idea off the top of my head. It combines two of my favourite things ever, SpongeBob and Kingdom Hearts and it's SpongeBob in Sora's clothes and holding a spatula Keyblade with a Krabby Patty as the keychain. I thought that was pretty clever and everyone liked it too and they like my Chowder picture too. And I like how they turned out.
My electronics:
Now we move onto some of my entertainment devises. The first is my laptop which is what I write these entries on and next to it is my DVD player which, obviously, I watch my DVDs on and we'll get to those in a second. Then we have my iPod shuffle. I've brought that up a few times in my Daniel Danger stories. Speaking of my Daniel Danger stories, and I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I'm going to anyway, I always like to imagine that if I ever got my Daniel Danger stories turned into something else for entertainment, I like to imagine that it'll be turned into a Netflix show and whenever I listen to a lot of the music on my iPod, I like to imagine the things in the stories happening in the episodes and the music going along with the scene. And I thought of some trailers for it too. I literally cannot stop thinking that ever since I first did. I love doing that. It is so much fun. Especially whenever I'm out for a walk and I'm running all the time and listening to it and imagining it. It gives me so much excited. I know that sounds really weird. But I can't help but enjoy every second of it. The kind of stuff that's on it are some stuff from Disney, Pixar, Kingdom Hearts, YouTube videos, Naruto, interviews with actors, some Lion Guard songs and a whole lot more. And after that we have my 3DS which is what I use to play 3DS games on like Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance, Smash Bros. and some others. That's great fun too.
My playroom:
So this is my playroom which in my basement and as you can see, this is where all my other game consoles ae like my PlayStation 2, 3 and 4, my Wii, Wii U and 2 TVs and some more of my posters and other art things. And on the other TV is a painting I did of myself which is something we were told to do in school. I use the TV on the desk to play my PlayStation 2 and I use the one on the wall to play all my other consoles.
My mascot stuff:
Something I may or may not of mentioned before is that I was actually a rugby mascot before 4 times and these are things from that time. I was the mascot for Munster in 2004, then I was the mascot for Munster again in 2006, then I was the mascot for Ireland in 2007 and then I was the mascot for Munster again in 2010. I remember a lot of the things that happened during that time. These are some things from then. There's some newspapers with me in them and some pictures and DVDs and even my first ever boots from when I was maybe 4 years old and I did it for the very first time. Every time I did it, it was a huge honour.
My Kingdom Hearts collection:
Now we come to the collections. And what better way to do that than starting off with my favourite thing ever, Kingdom Hearts. As you can see, I have all the games including 2.8, which I recently got and there's also my Sora costume and my Keyblade and some mangas that someone made of the video games which are so hilarious a lot and some other things in there as well like some other clothes and I have a few Kingdom Hearts keychains. I of course have great pride in all of these because, well yeah, it's Kingdom Hearts. Can it really get any better? No, I don't think it can.
My Disney Classics:
Next up is my entire Disney Classics collection which is every single Classic as of right now from 1 to 54 and I keep all the discs inside this folder. As you can see, I was not kidding when I said I'm a huge Disney collector and this is the biggest reason why. I love having these movies. And I can't wait to get more like Moana when it comes out. And yes, I even have the bad Classics too like the Black Cauldron and Home on the Range and some others because they are Classics and I can't complete the collection without them. This is probably my favourite DVD collection I have. And I love it. You all know I love Disney Classics and that I've talked about them a lot. They're all in order of release obviously. (All my DVD collections you'll be seeing will be in order of release too.) And all of them have the number on them to say what Classic they are like how Snow White is number 1, it says it on the side. I have them all lined up on my shelf in that order. I seriously can't say enough about this except I love it.
My Pixar movies:
Next is all my Pixar movies from Toy Story to Finding Dory. Next to my Disney Classics collection, this my favourite or second DVD collection. Pixar is still my favourite film studio and I love to have these. I do have a case for these movies too but I forgot to take a picture of it. And I actually have all the Disney Classics and Pixar movies and DreamWorks movies and comic book movies on the shelf you saw a minute ago. And I love having these too.
My DreamWorks movies:
While it doesn't look like much, I'm still collecting all the DreamWorks movies. I know what you might be thinking. About how did I see all of them to make that ranking of all the DreamWorks movies last year. Simple. I've also seen a lot of them online and that's how. And I still like having and watching these. And yes, like the Disney Classics, I even have the bad ones too. But I feel like having the complete collection too.
My comic book movies:
And next is my comic book movies. I have a lot of them and the discs go into this folder. As of right now I have a lot of them up to Suicide Squad. I have the original Superman movies, the original Batman movies (yes, even Batman & Robin, but that's only because they came in a box set and because I like having the complete collection of everything in terms of DVDs), the X-Men movies (they all also came in a box set except Deadpool which is there too), the original Spider-Man movies, the Dark Knight trilogy, the Amazing Spider-Man movies, the M.C.U movies so far and the DC.E.U movies so far, the three Blade movies, Watchmen, the two original Fantastic 4 movies as well as the 2003 Daredevil movie and the 2011 Green Lantern movie (I know, weird, isn't it). And every single one of these are in order of release date.
My SpongeBob Squarepants collection:
Starting off my TV stuff is my favourite TV show ever, SpongeBob. I have so many things here like DVDs that include seasons 1, 2, 3 and 4 and the two SpongeBob movies. I'm still working on getting the other seasons. I have a lot more SpongeBob things but I think there's too much to show there so I'm just going with the DVDs. And I love having these. These are the only seasons that are technically good. And the other things I have are some comics, I used to have a lot more SpongeBob comics but my mam got rid of most of them so there's only two left, also, I'm in one of those comics. I'm not kidding, I really am in one of those when I sent a photo there of me with all my SpongeBob stuff and my costume. Yeah, I used to have a SpongeBob costume. My dad made it for me out of a huge box that I put over myself. I don't have it anymore, but I'm tell ya that anyway. I also have other SpongeBob books, cards, stuffed characters, a puzzle ball, a table mat, a sign, annuals, a wood carving of Patrick that my dad made me, some games, a t-shirt, a dressing gown, tiny figures of SpongeBob, Patrick, Mr. Krabs, Squidward and Gary and there's also a pillow there that I made myself in Home Ec. I made it into SpongeBob's head. And the reason why there're three pictures is because there was so many things I thought I should do more than one.
My Family Guy DVDs:
Next is my Family Guy DVDs which include seasons 1-10. I'm still working on getting the rest. And I like having these too. I even have the season that has my favourite episode in it in season 10. Read my top 10 Family Guy episodes list if you haven't already to know what that episode is. And I love having these and I can't wait to get the rest.
My Lion Guard collection:
Now we move onto my Lion Guard things. There is so much here. I have the three current DVDs which include the movie, Return of the Roar and then there are the TV DVDs with some episodes in them which are Unleash the Power and Life in the Pride Lands. There's also my paintings I did on my laptop I showed on this blog a few times. I printed those because I was going to do something with them but that didn't happen so I decided to hang onto them. There's also my comics as well along with some posters and my stuffed Lion Guard characters. I also have a box set that I got for Christmas of 2016 of the five main Lion Guard characters. There's also 2 water bottles and a cup and straw I got myself as well as a Kion Christmas Tree ornament that my sister got for me and there's a Kion plate that my dad got for me. We got those three things at the Disney shop in London. That shop is absolutely amazing. If you ever go to London, I recommend going there. It is amazing. I promise. I've gone there a few times when I went over to see my dad. I also have the Lion King 2, which isn't a Lion Guard thing but I just wanted to show it anyway because they are connected. And that's all my Lion Guard stuff. Also, I can't show it, and I already said it before, but I also still have the Lion Guard iPhone game.
My graphic novels and character guides:
These are all my Marvel and DC graphic novels. And I have a lot of those. I've talked about some of these before and now. I have a Justice League one as well as the Killing Joke and the Dark Knight Returns. Then with Marvel, I have some pocket books which are small books of comics from the '60s or '70s or even '80s. I then also have some Spider-Man, X-Men, Iron Man, Hulk, Fantastic Four and other Marvel graphic novels as well like Civil War and Infinity, Avengers vs. X-Men and even the Secret Invasion, Siege and Shadowland. And under that are the Marvel and DC character guides that tell a lot of heroes and villains from both of those and what they can do, who they are and other stuff like that.
My Naruto collection:
Now we come to my anime stuff and manga stuff. First off is my Naruto collection. As you can see, I have a lot of Naruto mangas. I don't have them all. But I'm working on getting all those too. The reason that there's a separate picture of another Naruto manga is because I got it sometime after I finished taking the picture above it and I didn't want to redo the first one. I also have a lot of DVDs which include all of the original series and Naruto Shippuden: Season 1 and I also have Naruto The Movie: Legend of the Stone of Gelel. As well as a box set of the first five Naruto Shippuden movies an they are, the first one, Bonds, the Will of Fire, the Lost Tower and Blood Prison and a separate one with the Last: Naruto The Movie. I've only been able to see the rest online. I also have a Naruto Leaf Village headband, a shuriken, two t-shirts, a wallet and a Chunin jacket jumper with a leaf village headband front on the hood. And you can't see it, but one of those mangas is actually signed, number 27. When I went to a Comic Con in 2015, my brother and I actually saw one of the actors there, as in Stephanie Sheh who plays Hinata and she signed one of my mangas I actually got that same day. But even past all that, I love this collection and I can't wait to get the rest of the mangas and DVDs.
My Bleach collection:
Continuing my anime stuff, we come to my Bleach stuff. I have a ton of mangas and they're all 3 in 1 mangas. I haven't finished with this collection yet. I also have a ton of DVDs which include some seasons. I really just buy the DVDs if I see them and if I can and want to. I even have one of the DVDs signed by Johnny Yong Bosch himself who voiced Ichigo in the show. I met him at a Comic Con in Cork a while back. I don't remember which one but I did.
My Fairy Tail collection:
Next on my manga/anime stuff is my collection of Fairy Tail things. I have six mangas and I have Seasons 1-4 of the anime DVDs. And Season 1 is also signed too by Todd Haberkorn who voiced Natsu. I saw him at another Comic Con and what he wrote on it was "To Daniel, stay fired up." If you know the show or manga, then you know what that means.
My Fullmetal Alchemist collection:
Finishing my anime stuff is my Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood box collection. All of these are in a box and it's the entire show and there's two discs inside each case. And I love this anime as you all already know. It's probably my third favourite anime. And I am super happy I have this because I love to watch it a lot. And I also have all the manga collection with three in each one like some of the ones I showed with my Naruto collection. I have every single one and one of them is actually signed again. It's the second one with Scar on it. I met Scar's voice actor, J. Michael Tatum, at a Comic Con a while back and I asked him to sign it for me. And, like the Naruto collection, I'm really glad to have all of these.
My Harry Potter collection:
The reason the DVDs look like that is because they're in a box set and two movies are in one case and that's why. And beneath that are some pictures that were taken of me the day my mam, dad and brother went to the Harry Potter Experience. I got to wear a Gryffindor cloak and sit on a broom and it was in front of a green screen and that's where that second picture came from and I'm also holding my wand. And the one above it is all of us inside the Weasley's car and it looks like my brother is driving and we're driving away from the Hogwarts Express. And also the one with me on the broom was also a video I have on a memory stick and it's me flying around different locations in the Harry Potter universe.
My Middle Earth DVDs:
After Harry Potter, we have my Middle Earth DVDs which include all the Lord of the Rings movies and all the Hobbit movies. I still feel that the Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter are kinda the same and that's why they're this is going after Harry Potter. And of course I was going to have the Lord of the Rings. I mean everyone says that it's one of the best film trilogies ever. And I love having them as well like the rest of all of this. And I do have the books and the Harry Potter books, I just didn't think of them when doing these pictures.
My Star Wars DVDs:
These are all my current Star Wars movies from episode I-VII. I know I don't have the episode I case but that's because I couldn't find it. I keep the disk inside that case with all the Disney Classics I showed a minute ago along with all the rest and the Harry Potter movies and the Middle Earth movies. The more and more Classics come out, the more I'll take all those franchises out to make room for more Classics. Same with the shelf which is where almost all my DVDs are in my room. But anyway, I like having these, even the prequel movies. And I have the original trilogy in one case.
My Sonic the Hedgehog games:
Get this, when I was doing these pictures I actually thought I had more Sonic games but really these are all the ones I do have and I like the ones I do have. I actually do have Sonic Heroes, but I don't have the cover on the case so that's why that's not here. But still, I find enjoyment in all the ones I have here.
My Batman Arkham games:
And these are my Arkham games for the PS3. And I know you might be wonder why I don't have Arkham Knight, especially when I've talked about it before. Well here's the truth, I have played and finished the game, but I was only able to play it at my cousin's house because, and I promise, I am not lying here, I've gotten Arkham Knight for the PS4 four times but every time I put it into my PS4, it always says that the disc is damaged somehow. I promise, that is the truth. But these games are still fun.
My amiibos:
And all of these are my amiibos for Smash Bros. I don't have them all yet but I will soon. And having the ones I do have so far is really great. And if you play Smash Bros. and you know what amiibos are, then you should know what they do. But if you don't play it and you don't know, I'll explain. Amiibos are little figures you can use in Smash Bros. for either Wii U or 3DS and you can level them up and make them your ally or make them fight you. I actually kinda regret taking them out of their boxes but yeah, I did and I like having them all.
My Disney Infinity figures:
After my amiibos, we have my Disney Infinity figures. I've talked about Disney Infinity before so if you haven't read my review, read it to find out how it works. Overall these are really cool to have. I like using them, they're cool and the more I get, the more I love having them. And it's fun to put these characters on the circle of the Disney Infinity play base and play as them. I always have a great time with this game and nonstop fun.
My Toy Story banner:
This is something I made in school. We were told to make a 3D model and so I made this. I was really please with the way it turned out and I added a wood carved Woody and Buzz to go on the sides. I asked my teacher to cut them out and he did and then I designed everything else. My family was really proud of me when I did It and I'm still really happy with the way it looks.
My pets:
Now these are my pets I've mentioned a few times. My dog's name is Bob and we've had him for 12 years and my rabbit's name is Fluffy and we've had him for 7 years. I actually remember the days we got both of them. Bob actually lives inside the house. He used to live outside but 2 years ago, we decided to have him live inside because he's getting old. And Fluffy lives in a hutch outside. And where I got the names were kinda strange. When we got Bob, I was really young. I think I was only 5 years old and so I was really into Bob the Builder and that's where that name came from and with Fluffy, that name came from a long story but here it is. So one day at school there was a petting zoo van and there were rabbits there and one of my classmates just thought of the name Fluffy and so that's where that name comes from. And I love these two.
My Daniel Danger costume:
This was my original Daniel Danger costume I had for a while the t-shirt was something my dad gave me and he painted a D on the front as well as spelt Daniel Danger on the back. I also have the gloves and the red t-shirt is something he cut to make me a cape. And we actually got a rubber Captain America mask and we painted the A to look like a D. And the sword is something my dad also made for me and the shield was something I got at a medieval festival and I painted it to look like that. That was my original costume but now thanks to the Daniel Danger stories I've done on this blog, I redesigned it a little and I'm so glad I did. because I think it looks better now. Like I got rid of the D and wings on the mask, I made the mask into a helmet, I took away the Daniel Danger on the back and I added pants and boots. I haven't made them for real but that's how I designed it in the story. And this is actually kinda cool to wear.
My Toy Story toy collection:
These are my Toy Story toy collectables. I love these things. They're like action figures and there's another two that are like these but I don't have them and they're Bullseye and Lotso. And the paper under them are little certificates that came with them that John Lasseter himself wrote saying these were made using data from the original Toy Story movies. I'm also hoping to get the rest of the other toys from the movies too. And like I said, I love these things. They're almost exactly like the actual characters from the movies. The only few differences aren't that noticeable. One is that Andy isn't written on their boots. Another is some of the facial stuff you can kinda tell, especially with Woody. But they're still awesome and they talk the same way.
Lollipop:
Finishing us off is Lollipop. Lollipop is a monkey teddy I've had literally since I was maybe 4 or 5 years old. I got him at a zoo when I was on a school tour with my playschool. And the reason I called him Lollipop is because when we were on the bus going back to school from the tour, I was trying to think of a name for him and everyone else around me had actual Lollipops and so that's where I got the name. Lollipop is my favourite toy. I love him and I take him everywhere. Okay. Not "everywhere." But I always bring him on holidays and he always sleeps with me, which I know may sound creepy, especially given how I'm 17, but that's the truth. I just love him so much. He's also a puppet. That's why he doesn't have legs. You can put your hand in and make him do things. And everyone, that's my collections entry. I had a lot of fun doing this and I hope all of you liked it too. Thank you all for looking and reading and please comment to tell me what you think.
