The Record Club dated back to 1955 as a direct-mail experiment for music sales. The Columbia House Brand was started in the early 1970s when Columbia Records organized their various music clubs. The notion of getting 13 albums for a penny seemed like a sweet deal! That initial shipment was a "Christmas morning" sort of event. Reel-to-reel, cassettes, 8-tracks, albums, video games, software - they had it all! They went on to have VHS, CD and DVD offerings. When I was a kid, Columbia House had a club for every type of media you could imagine. Well done!Ĭolumbia House “Clubs” had everything from LPs & cassettes to video games & a branded Atari 2600 clone This looks like a properly planed holiday release. The enclosed trading card bares the same image. There is a zigzag pattern ont he cardboard backer that is reminiscent of Easter eggs. The clear plastic around the figure is egg-shaped as opposed to the square shapes for other figures.
So, we're stoked to play Easter Trigger Happy! :)Īctivision made a lot of fun changes to the packaging for Springtime Trigger Happy. All people are different in various ways - letting religion dictate a holiday greeting is idiotic. It reminds me of how some people prefer "Happy Holidays" to "Merry Christmas" to avoid awkward situations with those who don't celebrate Christmas. I keep saying "Easter" even though he's labeled as "Springtime".
He's one of our favorite Tech characters, so it's good fun to be able to play his Easter variation.
Springtime Trigger Happy has a pink/purple skin tone and rides an Easter egg bomb - all of which appears in-game while playing! This is a welcome discovery for such a fun character. My son and I played the original Eye Brawl and Halloween version simultaneously. Some people were quite surprised and disappointed by this. He still looked the same as the original Giant's figure, proving that he wasn't explicitly programed into the game. Last Fall's Pumpkin Head Eye Brawl was an awesome figure, however, his Halloween look did not appear in-game. So, finding an Easter (labeled as "Springtime") festooned Trigger Happy Skylander was awesome! Springtime Trigger Happy is available for Easter! Politically correct “Spring” comes to the Skylanders and Trigger Happy is poised for EasterĪ random trip to Toys R Us led to my discovery of an Easter Skylanders figure for Swap Force! I'm a big fan of holiday variants - in all forms.
