No Eng subs, I suppose (haven't opened it yet, still playing my Valkyria Chronicles 3 PSP).

Soundtracks and art book (thin)

I will only buy both copies for games that I think deserve my support, and they are rather rare for me nowadays.

Licorice-flavoured booze?

She basically took a few old arcade bezels I had lying around in a closet and built a nice wood frame and added lights. Looks great in the TV room.
oh wow that was really nice of her, looks awesome.
maskrider said:Selvaria and Catherine have arrived, ha ha ! But one set of Catherine pre-order bonus is missing.
i got mine from NCS and i thought the same thing. i emailed them about it and the 360 preorder bonus is apparently just two postcards. only the PS3 gets soundtrack/artbooklet. here's mine that i posted a few pages back. postcard is below the 360 version.
LiK said:
The Art book/Soundtracks bundles with 360 version in a pack, the PS3 version is separate in my situation.
The pre-order bonus should be the same from what I read when I ordered them (and from what I've read from others who received the stuffs), I'd sent a message to HMV JP anyway.
maskrider said:
oh, interesting. that's what i thought i read when i preordered too. NCS never screwed with my preorder bonuses so i don't think they were lying. makes me wish i preordered the different versions from different stores. seems like ordering both from one place means one bonus.

Found the lot on ebay. They're about 6 years old at this point, so pretty hard to find otherwise.Baconbitz said:

Where is everybody getting those Mother figures from? I looked on eBay and most of them are priced between 35 and 50 dollars per figure. Are people really paying that much for them?

That and sources/friends in japan, they come out of a crane game arcade machine.rainking187 said:

What? You don't know who bought it?JackEtc said:
Yeah it was pretty sweet. They probably would have spent their life in my closet had it not been for her. She has done stuff like this before where she grabbed a bunch of old photos from a spring break long past and made a scrapbook for me. She gave it to me during a Christmas get together that everyone in the book was at...she got some bonus points for that onelowrider007 said:

So they bought the car and own it.JackEtc said:
Appreciate how fantastic the opportunity you receiving is. Don't be the douche at a private college who thinks his life is so hard yet sits on a trust fund and parent paid tuition. I guess my pet peeve in life are people who have all the advantages but act as if they have none. (Not attacking you, just ranting).
I own a '06 Jetta TDI currently. Really enjoy the car (was a bitch to find it in manual, though), but sometimes the electronics can be annoying. Things beep and flash constantly, and yes, I take incredible care of it. Still, great car.
Correct. It is a third family car, but since our other two cars are a van and a truck, this will be the car I'm driving. I'm just surprised they ended up buying this car, seeing as it's more a sports car than a normal sedan....Foxtastical said:
I understand your rant, and I feel you. Even in high school there's still the douche bag kids that get a Camero for their birthday, and it really irks me. I'm super appreciative of this car.Foxtastical said:
I did hear about there being electronic issues with the Jettas. I was considering upgrading the head unit, but now I don't think I'm going to touch it.Foxtastical said:
Went shopping today, got some good deals.
Pretty awesome One Piece t-shirt from Uniqlo. They had some Japanese anime/games inspired designs, such as Naruto and Monster Hunter Portable 3rd. This was easily the best t-shirt.
Close-up:
Navy Hollister polo.
Went to Bershka, grabbed a bargain blazer for £10. Was like £30 beforehand I think.
Got some jewellery from Topman, Krispy Kreme Donut along the way, and a delicious lunch at this Malay restaurant along the restaurants around Westfield.
A great day, haha.

Not really one thrift store, more like a collection of 50 or so I hit up on a regular basis.Kotomi said:
More goodies to liven up my day.
The back is the platinum Club Nintendo pins for Japan from this year, then in front of it a Donkey Kong Game & Watch.
Flanked by a couple of those Mother 2 toys (finally got tired of losing endlessly on the annoying machine and just bought them for 1100 each at a manga shop).
Mr. Saturn in the trash-can is stuffed :3-

Ahh remember the good old days of GAF where IGN (I think it was them) was hinting and teasing at the new N64 redesign and everyone was expecting some sleek, slimmer new model and instead we got THAT.

It's not every day I get to go to Japan. Have to make every day count (by buying everything I see)
Getting it all home now though...that was the problem lol. The $400 excess baggage fee stung a bit. >.>

Got it earlier this month as a complete surprise. Hardware-wise, it's pretty nice, but Chrome OS has a long way to go to be a viable OS for netbooks.
I just recently finished watching The Walking Dead Season 1 and just had to pick this up. This book is HUGE, and I kind wish I bought the individual books instead of the compendium (even if it would've cost more).
I don't know how I missed Hitman Blood Money, but this game is in my top 10 list of favorite games. So many cool locales and the freedom to do each mission how you want makes it really shine for me.

Nice pickups! I adore Bershka.
edgefusion said:
Deffo hah. Got some shorts from there last summer, and got my brother a sweet Marvel t-shirt with the Hulk on it for his birthday.
Just wish there was a Bershka nearer to me, rather than the 50 min bus ride it takes to get to Westfield. Oh well, worth the journey for the multitude of other shops anyway.

I bought a pair of Solo HD's during Christmas and they have quality bass but their highs and lows could be better. I mostly use them for traveling.

Where is home? I've always figured that when we travel to Japan next, I'd pick up some books - but given some of those titles - I'd probably prefer to ship them back rather than to travel with them. I've read a few horror stories...
