Zyuoh The World Crocodile Form (Sentai Hero 11 cm)

Mondo Misao's final form utilizes greater strength and The GunRod in staff mode. The Crocodile Zyuman is dressed in stereotypical "desert" attire which I can't decide is problematic or not. I'm leaning toward not because he doesn't really act in any kind of racist way.

Zyuoh Whale (Sentai Hero 11 cm)

Zyuoh Whale is the final power-up form of Zyuoh Red. The original Zyuoh Whale was the first Zyuohger who first imprisoned a dangerous foe in the distant past who comes back to haunt the current heroes. I absolutely love this design. First off, a whale is a kind of unusual inspiration for a Sentai ranger. Secondly it's a very elegant, almost regal design. Not like the over complicated mess that ultimate forms often take. This figure is molded with the Whale Change Gun on his left hand.

Zyuoh The World Wolf Form (Sentai Hero 11 cm)

Zyuoh The World in his wolf form. In this form he uses Zyuoh The GunRod in gun mode (not included) and has enhanced speed. I like the clever way the previous form's face slides up like a knight's visor to reveal the next form underneath. I do feel the wolf face is the weakest of the the three though.

Zyuoh Gorilla (Sentai Hero 11 cm)

Kazakiri Yamato's second Zyuohger form is Zyuoh Gorilla. He gains this power when the Zyuman Larry shares some of his life force in order to save Yamato's life. This is the first instance of the visor flip gimmick in Zyuohger that Zyuoh The World uses later on. The inflated ape muscles are kind of hilarious on screen but the look works in vinyl form.

Zyuoh The World Rhino Form (Sentai Hero 11 cm)

Mondo Misao is the sixth member of Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger. A human captured by the Deathgaliens and forcibly infused with the life essence of three Zyumans he transforms into Zyuoh The World and can access the powers of rhinoceros, wolf, and crocodile. Here is his rhino form which has enhanced strength and an evil detecting sense. He uses a fishing rod weapon in this form.

LEGO Batman Movie Minifigures Part 2

So round 2 of Batman Minifigures has arrived (read: I couldn't resist and bought a bunch more). I did okay again but wound up with a couple doubles. According to the handy-dandy checklist that comes with the figures I only need 6 more to have the whole set which I'm not sure I need but we'll see. Also I've blown my toy budget on these guys for the next month or so which will affect things naturally. Now on to the minifigs!

David's Tea Turmeric Glow Herbal Infusion

A new season is on the horizon and that means new teas from David's Tea. I don't think Turmeric Glow is part of the new spring collection but it's new to us.

This tisane is made from carrots, ginger, turmeric, sweet blackberry leaf, pineapple, beetroot, and natural pineapple flavouring.  It has a bright orange colour from the turmeric and a very vegetal flavour. It's quite a different taste and at first I wasn't sure what to make of it. It's not very sweet at all though the sweeter ingredients probably temper the spicier flavours. It's definitely driven by the carrots and turmeric, with the ginger adding a bit of zip.

Upon contemplation and a second cup while watching an episode of the great animated adventure show "The Deep" I've decided I do like this tea but it doesn't rate among my favourites.

Turmeric Glow is great if you want to try something a bit different. Apparently turmeric is an ancient traditional remedy and good for your skin. Your mileage may vary. As always I make no claims to the efficacy of such things.

Recommended.
