Yeah, of all the things to change/add in the new show, they added a third toe. I don't really care personally, though I find it an odd thing to mess with.

The figures themselves are great, nice sculpt, solid articulation, I'm pleased with them.

Maybe they wanted to even it out like how humans have five fingers and five toes. I kinda always figured that they had two toes because it looked more like ninja boots. lol.

But yeah, they look nice. How much were they?

Bought this Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 Deluxe Pack. Can't even play it since this one's not fan translated yet haha. Mario RPG is just there for a size comparison.

The stars finally aligned and I was able to pick one of these up. Now I can carry my games with me CIB. I intended to buy one for years, but I could never justify ordering it.

Recent gets for me:

Nice t-shirt from work

21 Jump Street, Airport Express (dual band), cheap 32Gb Class10 SD card, and Kingdoms of Amalur. 3 of those 4 things were under £20 each.

Sorry about the picture quality, apparently the new iPad's camera is still not worth a damn.
 
Going to Home Hardware today to get dryer tubing (in the video that's what the "If it's 79 cents a foot" bit was about). I'm not going to leave it in his cage though, just in case he decides to chew on it or something. It'll be just for supervised play.

Sounds perfect!
 
My Girlfriend freaked the fuck out when I showed her that Hedgehog video, nearly went into some kind of cuteness coma.

Didnt know you could have them as pets, are they like miniture ones or do they grow to be like rabbit size+?
 
Where did you get that logic case thing?

The same place I got the stylus: Amazon. Between about 1990 and 1995, you couldn't walk through a major retail store's disc accessory isle without tripping over these things. They were everywhere.

Amazon is one of the few places you can still regularly find them. Case Logic also makes a 60 case holder, but it's twice the size of this one and a bit bulky. The Fry's Electronics down the street from my apt actually carries those for $20 (Amazon has em' for a bit more). So if you need something larger and live near one of their locations, you may want to check it out.

Case Logic also made a 15 case holders, but those have been delisted they no longer make them. I wish I could find one, because they are great quick-carry cases for gatherings or light travel in general.

I spy a Hyper Duel in there! Awesome game that deserves good protection like the case you bought.

Definitely. Some of those clear cases are holding some US long box rarities. I try to keep my disc based retro games in standard jewel cases. The original cases are stored elsewhere. My wife tried to convince me to transfer my retro collection to a jumbo, sleeved style case a couple of years ago. I told her she was nuts if she thought my rarities were going anywhere near one of those things.

Thanks, I needed a couple of them!

Very nice!!

That's one of the few first-party Nintendo games I'll probably never own due to the fact that the cheapest I ever saw it (in Japan) was ~$400. :(

Hahaha, I loved that. I'm not sure if there are miniature breeds but the one I've seen are all definitely smaller than a rabbit.

Has your girlfriend seen baby ferrets? Ferrets are hilarious pets but they need washing as they have a very odd body odour. But they're full of fun and love being played with.

First pick-up post!
Got Doctor Lautrec and Rhythm Thief. Both are very good. :D


Also got a 60GB PS3 for $50 on eBay. It was listed for parts, wouldn't read discs and overheated a lot. Apparently all it needed was some thermal paste and a clean laser lens (so. much. dust.).
 
Long time lurker and this will be my first post in the Pick-Up thread, :)

Went to gamestop to get this (4.99)

And walked out with this

Very pleasant surprise when I got home.
 
Yeah, I'm sure they didn't even bother to look. lol

At first I thought you were going to be pissed about getting a greatest hits copy.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Finally, the GC component cables are finally MINE!

Holy shit its pricy.

Yeah, they're expensive... but they're the absolute best way to play 'Cube games. The Wii's output, even over component, is absolutely atrocious by comparison.
 
lolz my friend went to gamestop to buy persona 1 on psp, and they gave him the persona 1 case, but it had the persona 3 portable UMD inside. I told him he got away with a much better game and deal, the difference in price at the time was like 20 bucks.

Oh man, that's awesome. Nice pickup. Where'd you pick up all these press kits? Ebay?

Finally upgraded my mytouch 3g slide and my wife's Samsung Galaxy S to two HTC One S's. They were on sale for $99 each (2yr upgrade), which made it easier to swallow than the $330 upfront t-mobile wanted for one SGS3. I love it so far. Also got Rohan at the Louvre, by Hirohiko Araki of Jojo's fame, after seeing someone else pick it up on this thread :-D.

(sorry about the sideways pics)
Cowboy Bebop Remix Complete. Got it for a good price on ebay (about $23). Been wanting this after watching Kids on the Slope and picking up Samurai Champloo.

And apparently, I like reading about various "men".
 
I need that Adventure Time/Avengers mashup print so hard D:

Agree with you, its awesome!

Thanks! It's actually the size of a postcard - I had zoomed in on the print to get a better shot of it - and was the last that the artist was selling at her artist table at AX.

I think I have her business card with my stuff, but am not totally sure.

And yes, the print was too good to pass up. It was really a 'shut up and take my money' moment when I saw it.
