Two's Company... it draws a crowd!

Each season brings a whole new array of trinkets from Two's Company, a brand that ranges from home decor to jewelry to small gifts.  It's difficult to select which items from their catalogue we want to carry, but as soon as we saw the Chic Patisserie Macaron Gift Sets, we knew those were a must have.  We've carried the Macaron Trinket Boxes for a bit now, and those have a habit of just flying off the shelves (we actually just got a fresh shipment in!), so we knew that anything macaron would probably be a big hit.  These new sets are actually four macaron-shaped boxes with matching, round-ball earrings inside.  So you get four pairs of earrings in different colors, plus the adorable earrings within.  These would be excellent divided up as party favors, or perfect as a small "Thank You!" gift set for someone special.  Also back in stock are the beaded bracelets shown above, and the owl hand creams.  We also have our sparkle headbands back, as well as new goodies like neon bracelets, neon scarves, travel pop-up hair brushes, and two different styles of purse hooks that you can put in your purse and pull out when ever you're at a table and need a place to safely set your purse.  Our jewelry case is also full of new jewelry (hair pins, rings, etc.) from Two's Company, and if you must know what our absolute favorite item is, it's this guy:

You might not be able to read his tag, but you don't need to.  Just give him a small squeeze and out comes oinking and snorting that will have you giggling like a small child.  Small children tend to guffaw when they hear him, but hey, a laugh's a laugh.  Two's Company hit a home run with this little piggy!

Space: The Final Frontier...Use the Force!

At Landis' Labyrinth, you'll find that we can't just choose between DC or Marvel.  The same goes for Star Wars and Star Trek.  True, we have less in the way of Trekkie goodies, but just as with DC Comics products, it's simply because there are far less options for us to obtain out there.  So in honor of the release of the new Star Trek film, and in anticipation of the upcoming three new Star Wars films destined to come our in the next few years, we present to you... SPACE!!!

Of course, we have loads of Star Wars Lego sets, from galaxy-sized to Pluto-sized (you're still a planet to us, Pluto).  They have some great small sets that are hollow planets filled with the Legos to build one Star Wars Character and space vehicle, so it's a great set for a beginner or for an adult collector looking for the perfect desk toy.  As for Star Trek, we have some Kre-O sets from Hasbro in stock now.  Kre-O isn't as well known as Lego or Mega Bloks, but it's similar in that it is a brick-building toy.  Kre-O tends to veer more towards the collector side of construction rather than the building, so again, great for older collectors who yearn for a small, build-able replica of their favorite Star Trek ship.  Back over to Star Wars, we also just go in some Star Wars character ear buds, perfect for listening to a John Williams/Michael Giacchino score as you assemble your Lego/Kre-O sets.  Because we're assuming that when you play with movie tie-in toys that you're really going to go all out for it and listen to the accompanying music. 

And naturally, being the kind of shop we are, we must pay homage to the classic space-themed toys of yesteryear.  We were nearly overcome with joy and boxes last week when our Schylling Toys order came in, because not only were there a ton of boxes, many of them had space-themed toys within them.  Both the packaging and the toys themselves are retro-inspired, and we hope that they will inspire kids to get out and play this summer.

 

So stop on by and prepare to be dazzled by our retro and space-related toys!
