On This Week’s Show, More Fun Toy Gadgets From The Toy Insider’s Sweet Suite Event

We Start With A Mini Walk Around At Toy Insider’s Sweet Suite & A Stop At The “Make It Real” booth.

There we learned what the “Quick Twist” tool does.

Spoiler Alert! It’s a Colorful Cord Bracelet Maker. Kids choose their cord colors and thickness, loop them onto the hook, then let the Quick Twist tool do its thing.… Use the resulting multicolored cord and included beads to make 24 beautiful bracelets. It’s easy and impressive! Add beads and experiment with different color combinations and cord thicknesses. Designed for creative kids ages 8+ who love making bracelets to wear and share! I saw it online at Target for $12.99.

It’s the new Dino Movie Megasaurus Dino Vehicle.

This big fun truck comes with it’s own inflatable toy dinosaur. Kids just press the vehicle’s light bar and it activates sounds and inflates the 2.5-foot-tall dinosaur toy. If they want, kids can then detach the inflated dinosaur and roll it separately on its own wheels. They can also play drive the 18-inch-long vehicle with its working wheels & clear obstacles with the movable front claws. The third franchise feature, PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie comes out August 2028. The Megasaurus Dino Vehicle is available now on Amazon. MSRP: $64.99.

Energizer Ultimate Child Shield Batteries are a big safety step forward in battery safety.

These Energizer batteries offer a superior number of safety features which include: Ingestion Burn Protection, Color Alert, a bitter coating, and child-resistant packaging. They said to be world’s only coin lithium battery with Ingestion Burn Protection that prevents burning if swallowed. Then Color Alert Technology dyes the mouth blue seconds after contact with saliva to help alert caregivers to act fast. They’re available in three 20mm sizes, including the widely used 2032 coin cell battery. They’re sold in various size packages, but I found the four packs were sold out on Amazon on 7/15/26. However, a ten pack for $14.23, or about $1.43 per battery was available on 7/18/26.

Chad’s new Cheap Gadget Theme for July, as voted on by our loyal Patreons is Key Chain Gadgets!

Chad’s third key chain gadget is Sleephoho PhotoTag E Ink Bluetooth Tracker Tag.

Chad was impressed with this PhotoTag and it’s customization E Ink display. You can personalize it with your favorite photo, contact info, etc. Lose somehing and you can trigger the PhotoTag tracker to emit a ringing sound to help locate nearby items. The screen is really small. The overall device dimensions are 2.8 x 2.76 x 0.91 inches, so the screen itself fits within that footprint. (The exact screen size isn’t specified in the product details.) You can get a good idea of it’s size as Chad does a great demo on this week’s show. Chad was really impressed that it cost under $30.00, although he did say he hasn’t had good luck with third party tags for finding lost or misplaced items.

Even if you’re not a train fan, you’ve probably seen a lot of stories about the Union Pacific BIG BOY locomotive. With it’s tender, it’s almost 100 feet long. Rowel went to see and video record this machinery wonder when it passed through Philadelphia in early July. Chad, I and the chatroom were really impressed at the great shots of the train Rowel was able to get. Here’s Rowel’s email:

Hi DickDe, Chad, & the Giz Wiz,

On Sunday, the 5th July, my mom and I had journeyed down to Philadelphia.  Among the many sights we did see was the world’s largest steam locomotive operated Union Pacific Railroad – no.4014, a member of the “Big Boy” class. The locomotive itself was only on public display and not, unfortunately any of the vintage passenger cars it brought along.  The day included free goodie bag of stuff and of course free water.

On the 6th July, I journeyed back down to Philadelphia to see 4014 off and I managed to record a video :

Note :  sorry about the wobbliness of the camera. With my left hand, I was holding my iPhone up above the fence which was taller than me ; I was propping up my umbrella with the crook under my left arm against the wind and rain ; and I was waving my hat to the crew I saw.

If you do watch through the whole video and see the few crew wave, they are indeed waving at me bc I was the only one there. Everyone else was sheltering under the bridge.

Hope you found this interesting /enjoyable, Kindly, – Rowel C.
