I got a few press releases about this game, but for whatever reason (probably timing), I never did request a review copy of it. Your review makes the game seem way more interesting than what the press releases made it out to be.
Gaming-wise I got what I asked for. Mario + Rabbids, SnipperClips Plus, and the new Bubsy game. And some gift cards and other stuff.
I never played the Toy Story part of Disney Infinity because I didn't have the figures, but for some reason, you showing them reminded me of another Disney game that I reviewed a long time ago on the GameCube. It was called Disney Skate Adventure and it was made by the same folks who did the Tony Hawk games. It was essentially a Tony Hawk game for little kids. You could play as Toy Story characters and skate around themed worlds instead of skate parks, like a giant Pizza Planet. Before I reviewed this game, I never understood why people liked the Tony Hawk games. But after I played it, I understood why people like them. It didn't make me a skateboard game fan or anything, but it did help me relate to why people find them fun.
I reviewed the Back to the Future TellTale game. This was back when TellTale was actually making games, not follow your nose adventures. Back to the Future was one of their last games like that, before they started using the Walking Dead formula. The game is also the closest thing we'll get to a Back to the Future 4. It's an all right game, but it starts better than it finishes. I think the Sam & Max, Wallace & Gromit, and Tales of Monkey Island games are better.
Overcooked only really shines if you have someone to play with you.

I didn't think the first Cars movie was that bad, but the second one is one of my least favorite Pixar films. Only ones I dislike more are Monsters University and The Good Dinosaur.
I was at a store called Five and Below the other day and they had TONS of Skylanders figures and it made me think of you.
Some of the games on your list that I played include Overcooked, Oceanhorn, Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap, and Breath of the Wild. All were very good games.
It might be kind of hard to scan a life size Skylander like that into the game, though. Might be kinda heavy. :)
Oh well thank you. I do appreciate it. I do like having nice things happen to me.
You know those Funko Pop figures that you see everywhere now? I only actively collected the Pac-Man ones, but I found a She-Hulk one on sale so I got it. It kind of looks like that picture.
Your pretend present is one of the life-size Skylanders statues they had at E3 when they first announced the orignal game. I saw them at Activision's booth back then.
Thanks for reading!
