All the Jurassic Park movies in 4K, enhanced sound, what more could you ask for. This set also include all five films with physical Blu-ray Discs as well and their digital copies, so it’s the whole enchilada.

A game geared toward a younger generation in my opinion. Nintendo milking the Mario brand with a different spin on things.

Brings back some Mario Party days but with different characters. Crazy to see Sonic, the old Sega icon on the Nintendo console.

This Nerf gun is weak and hardly shoots past the kitchen table. My 9 year old daughter struggles a bit to pull it back because it’s hard to lock in before firing. The removable barrel is useless and does nothing, you are paying for the Fortnight gimmick name. Stay away, others are a better purchase for your money. I’ve upped my daughter collection to about 15 Nerf guns and this is going to sit and collect dust, simply because it’s not fun to play with.

One of the best purchases if you have a Firestick. The back of the remote starts to slide off quickly after basic use but this keeps everything together, protects it from damage, feels good in your hand and looks nice. 100% recommended purchase.

Great tv but one problem. When I connected my cable box it would NOT pick up the local channels so I now have NO local channels. It is connected through the "antenna" input as the box does not have and HDMI port. How do I get my regular cable channels?

It might be either or but in the setting there is an option to search for the local channels and but since you have your cable box plugged into your antenna port, that could be the reason it’s not able to search for the local channels. I would recommend connecting via HDMI to get the most out of the picture and the TV if possible.

Do I need to turn off the power switch on the sub after use ? The red led light never goes off otherwise.

No, it’s a powered subwoofer with an automatic power-off feature. When the receiver it is not pushing power to it and the receiver is powered off, the Sub goes into a “standby” mode. When the receiver turns back on, it sends a power signal back to the Sub and also turns the Sub back on as well. Sometimes it takes a few seconds for the Sub to come back on from the “standby” mode, depending on how powerful your receiver is. I always leave mine on.
