Retailers say this non-edible addition to Louisiana's Thanksgiving tables might be hard to find come November. It's supposed to promote family togetherness.
If you thought the first year of Lego Dimensions brought together more characters and franchises than you thought humanly possible, wait until you get a load of what TT Games has in store for 2016. The first official trailer for Lego Dimensions: Year Two (my titling, not theirs) arrived today and with it came a wealth of unexpected surprises.
