I see, they're probably a Lego Store exclusive until the end of summer. Sigh, no Lego Stores here in Italy, bummer

Hmmm... btw, did you use to post on a newsgroup called ICC and are a fan (maybe) of The Cure? That PSN profile of yours is kinda familiar

 

[Jayx77]

Twin Pines Mall, is that you?

Twin Pines Mall was actually the Puente Hills Mall in City of Industry, CA (~30 miles east of LA)

 

[jbueno]

Don't knock Wallyworld! I had to slum it in there earlier to get my Donkey Kong (since Target was out) but came away with this beauty. $1.77 for 34 ounces of Valentina hot sauce. Score!

Yeah, Valentina sauce is the shit!

Another Mondo poster. Jesus, this thing:

There Will Be Blood - Aaron Horkey

Ciao Dash! Yup, sono io
Well, except for the The Cure part, I mean I like them but I don't think anyone would remember me by that feature.

 

[pahamrick]

Wow, some serious blast from the past shit, there. The original Berserk DVDs (the one in the set you have there) are better than the remastered version, real deal.

I need to watch the series again, myself.

Wait, the original release is better than the remastered? Huh. Yeah, I had a hard nostalgia kick when going through everything, even better was I had some of this stuff years ago but had to sell it when money got tight so it was nice to get it back again.

It's *sniff* beautiful :*)

I wish I could've bought that when it dropped. Spent too much money before hand.

New (old) car - 2004 Mini 'Cooper S' model. It's fully kitted out with nearly every one of the optional extras when it was new, bought from a friend in the trade who bought it on a whim but decided it wasn't for them. Driving around with a big grin as it's a hell of a fun car to drive, and goes like a rocket. As much as I want it, I think I'll pass on the John Cooper Works tuning pack, as it would cost more than I paid for the car itself!

This month's Criterion BD pickups to add to the growing collection. Some new, some secondhand.

My first Mondo, Metropolis (regular) by Ken Taylor. Such incredible detail, it deserved professional framing. When I went for the inspection/collection the master framer said he thought it was a beautiful piece - I'm inclined to agree

Boards of Canada blockmount print. Stumbled across a hi-res press image of the new album artwork, so put it to some good use! Can't wait to get my hands/ears on the album, my hype levels are through the roof.

Out of print I guess, huh? It's beautiful indeed.

@Processor: Is this an eval kit? What do you plan to do with it?

@Processor: Is this an eval kit? What do you plan to do with it?

Sitara AM335x starter kit (US$199), with an LCD and 2 independent gigabit Ethernet ports and on-board WiFi.

No project on my mind yet, just wanted to toy with interesting (and relatively affordable) hardware. And BTW, I work full time with hardware.

 

[LostAnkh]

I think this haul is good enough for a post...

You've got my attention with Dark Cloud.

 

[Xtincthed]

Dr. Retro's Video Game Finds Part 82 is now online.
As usual it's filled to the brim with retro games for various systems!

Thanks. Yes, I had to source it from ebay as I don't have the same psychic abilities that other folks have when trying to buy from Mondo directly (saying that, I did manage to score the Saul Bass shirt).

 

[n8NMONSTER]

I got this cuz it had Aquaman #lego #injustice

Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar

 

[ys45]

I thought PSone emulation on a Ps3 were region free so i decided to get Detana Twin Bee -_-

Oh well, good things there is emulation for PSone

 

[KingHenrik30]

Apartment was burglarized recently so I moved and I'm slowly upgrading all of my things. Everything including the TV stand was bought this month!

TV looks gorgeous man. Make/Model?

 

[cj_iwakura]

Tenchi Muyo! War on Geminar

What the hell have they done to Tenchi? Kagato needs to kill them all.

 

[persongr]

That's so great, and I'm so jealous! Nice framing too.

 

[pahamrick]

What the hell have they done to Tenchi? Kagato needs to kill them all.

Guess they were afraid it wouldn't sell over here without the Tenchi name attached. The series is only very loosely attached to the Tenchi universe.

 

[Cody_D165]

Finally added this to the collection. Snagged it for $65 after a couple of trade-ins.

 

[Anemone]

Picked up my last two Weathered Wayfarers. I'm thinking of taking a break from Shardless BUG to play this list on Saturday.

 

[WiiRevolution1]

Like always, I post a video instead of pictures of the last month of pickups. Already done buying stuff this month so this video has come early: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JK8siOLAtbw

Unlike most months, I mostly got books instead of video games. Here is the list:

Little Star
Harbor
Kitty Norville #1: Kitty and the Midnight Hour
Divergent #2: Insurgent
Deadly Cool #2: Social Suicide
Tyrelle Trilogy
Akasha Chronicles #2: Emily's Trials
Morganville Vampires #6: Carpe Corpus
Vampire Kisses #8-9
Into the Shadows #2-3
An Unfortunate Fairytale #2

And Virtual Console WiiU games:
Kirby's Dream Land 3
Kirby's Dream Course
Kirby: Super Star

So overall, a fantastic month!

 

[Mutagenic]

Great device. Easily handles all my streaming/viewing needs.

You are on your way to being a great Dad. Congrats man!

You're very kind, thank you!

LEGO pickup for Memorial Day:

Fanime pickups:

(Buttons!)

(Prints for my workspace)

Not pictured, a pouch for my friend.

 

[Agent713]

I went to Phoenix Comic-con and met Rob from Cyanide and Happiness. Got a sweet comic and a book as well.

 

[DonDraper]

Some more Batman toys to add to the collection.

 

[mandiller]

My two most recent pick ups.

And my gorgeous 27" 2560x1440 IPS monitor. Such a worthwhile upgrade from my old 1050 22" Samsung.

Awesome MSX pick-up!

 

[LiK]

wow, that Metropolis poster is amazing

 

[foobarry81]

Awesome MSX pick-up!

Thanks! Trying to build me a nice collection here. So far I have 18 carts, all of which are Konamis.

So much nostalgia in it for me.

 

[lordimmortal]

Finally after a year when I back this on kickstarter my Pebble arrived today









I have to say it was worth it is brilliant

Persona 4 Arena Vinyl to go with all the Sega vinyl's I have

 

[ThePeoplesBureau]

wow, that Metropolis poster is amazing

Thanks, it's probably my favourite piece of art adorning my walls right now

 

[ajcacio]

TV looks gorgeous man. Make/Model?

Thanks! It's actually a Vizio e601i-a3 60 inch LED. It's pretty great for the price!

18? Wow! I always wanted to pick up an MSX but space and money are an issue at the moment hence why I'm *just* Famicom collecting!

Congratulations on the Mini and welcome to the world of driving a Mini. That's a beautiful R53. *__*

Have tons of fun with it. ^^

Here's a pic of my previous pick-ups for the system:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=53674002&postcount=388

If space is an issue then yeah... the MSX is quite bulky, especially mine (Philips NMS 8280). Also the games aren't exactly cheap. :-(

But Famicom collecting sounds like a lot of fun too. And probably healthier for your wallet.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Bought well over a month ago but finally showed up!

Thanks! I did a lot of driving over the weekend, the weather was great and I was having a blast driving all over the place. What surprised me most is how confident it is on the highway, it doesn't feel like I'm in a small vulnerable car, and the six-speed gearbox just keeps giving and giving. Calling it now: best car I've ever owned ^_____^

At €0,70 the price seemed right.

Awesome pic! My Konami Famicom collection is actually subpar but I am in love with Gradius, Salamander, Metal Gear and Antarctic Adventure (that's all that I have that spring to mind although I guess there must be more). I'll google that model (of MSX) now. I always had a soft spot for the red Sony one!

 

[Parallacs]

Finally added this to the collection. Snagged it for $65 after a couple of trade-ins.

Very nice.

In my opinion, better than the PC-E version

I like to turn it on and just stand still on the first level to listen to the music.

 

[deddonpachi]

love it!
