First post in this thread, long time lurker.
Got a new Sensor bar for my Wii after breaking the original one about a year ago.
Paper Mario cost me £2 off my friend who was selling all his Wii stuff.
Computer parts are to try and get my old rig up and running again.
And not picture; Festival Ticket which I went to this weekend gone.
Steam sale pickups, I missed a few deals I wanted because I was at a festival. Guild Wars includes the trilogy and the extra expansion.

Wakestock, it's not a big festival but the line up was good. A relative of mine DJ'd at Sonisphere though.

I don't think I've ever owned an MX518 (I did own a similar looking mouse, but it was blue, maybe the 510?). Anyway, compared to the G5 that I have been using for the last few years (which was great until it started shorting out), it's even better. 5600 dpi compared to 2000 (not that I use the super fast settings anyway), more customizable buttons, better scrolls wheel, etc). I would say it's definately worth the $50 price you can find it for online. Also I forgot to mention that my G5 was out of warranty by like a year (I know I bought it when it first cam eout, the box says 2007 and it had a 3 year warranty). <3 Logitech
June/July pickups thus far:
Bought a 3DS off a friend, and got some new games. Despite the giant price tag saying $25, I got DBO:2 for $15 new.
Picked up Enslaved for $10 at the EB Games sale. I remember hearing the 360 version ran better, so I went with that one.
Pretty large Transformers month for me, as not pictured is a ticket for a 3D UltraAVX showing of Transformers: Dark of the Moon. To celebrate this, I picked up the remaining 2 seasons of US G1 that I didn't own.
I also picked up the first part of Japanese G1, in Transformers: The Headmasters. I'm slightly disappointed Shout didn't put the terrible dub on it.
Here's the big daddy, Transformers Vault. A pretty large giftset size book with a tonne of information and some interactive sections with recreations of things. I do wish the recreations weren't just limited to G1, and Movieverse, but sadly they are.
The book also doesn't seem as comprehensive as the Japanese guides. But it is really, really nice.

Okay. This is my first time posting in this thread, and actually my first attempt at posting images, so please feel free to bark at me if I'm doing it wrong. There's loads of stuff I've picked up recently, just prior to my account validation, but I'll leave it to just this month, in accordance to the thread title. It's been my birthday, and I came into a bit of cash, so I splashed out on some additions to my DS collection.
Most of these speak for themselves. Those are three of the last PSP games that I will be buying for a while. All bought for stupidly cheap thanks to Cheap Arse Gaffer thread.
Tron movies on BluRay were a birthday present from my girlfriend.
I wanted to get hold of Solatorobo before it becomes difficult to find and expensive. I found a pristine copy of Crystal Drive on ebay for a good price, considering it is well out of print. Wanted a Rune Factory game, cos I've heard they're pretty great, so picked up Strange Journey and Rune Factory 3 together from Play Asia (UK Gaffer here), cos I had a spare coupon kicking about.
And then Ketsui Death Label. One of the last additions to my collection that is truly expensive/desirable. I paid more than I ethically should for a brand new copy, and it's immaculate. I love it.
Oh yeah. And I treated my self to a DSi XL. They had three of the 25th Anniversary Mario editions in stock at my local Sainsburys for £169.99 including NSMB. They're not getting any cheaper (or in stock at any online retailers), so I jumped on it. It is GLORIOUS!
That's the sixth variation of a DS I've owned (including my 3DS). Probably my last.
KDL took my total number of DS games to 115! Got a few more on their way. Will post them as soon as they arrive!

Dang, yo. That copy of Ketsui Death Label must've cost a pretty penny... especially with the superplay dvd.

That's really not too bad. I've seen used copies without the bonus shit go for a lot more than that.
zmet said:Lastest haul:
Alcahest (Complete)
Gosh. I bought Alcahest new about 15 years ago...only to get stuck at some boss.
Price was over 100 for an imported copy in Paris. I m cry, I had managed to forget about it.
Damn boss was a stone in a room full of the same stones but although I did hit him once or twice (over hunderds of retries) I never managed to understand what hurt him...
Best of Luck
