Holy sweet Christmas!

See......this is the kinda shit that makes me want to go sell crack. I'd never afford this amount of cool stuff on my current budget. Wonder what a kidney goes for right now......

Well, waiting SHFs of a Sentai flute player & his robot lion partner....

Thank you. Size wise, it's one of my smaller months. Especially when compared to the last couple of months. Those Perfect Grade Gundam kits I picked up last month had to have there own special box!

It's not expensive as it might seem. I often get certain items a little later than others in order to get a better price if I think the pre-order price, or current price is more than I want to spend.

Man, I'm still way behind most of y'all. Still don't have a KR Knight. Only complete Sentai teams are MMPR/Zyuranger (that's a MUST) & Ninjastorm/Hurrikenger. Not to mention no Morphers, belts, switches, coins, or keys. And I'm still not comfortable using the Asian markets like you guys. I hear the horror stories.

What is that Soul Calibur thing?

So not really "purchases" per say, but my birthday stuff is beginning to roll in quite nie ly. I will post a more Complete Picture once I think I have gotten everything, but I thinkthis guy has to be my favourite for now:https://scontent.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...ef&oe=5690EC83

Tiny but very nice (to me) Mandarake haul courtesy of Tali.

The Souchaku book is as cool as I thought it would be and more. It goes through every release in the line, has interviews, design sketches, it goes through the design process, and includes info on other toku toys that involve diecast and changing gimmicks. It is so cool.

Any reason you got that particular Hobby Japan issue?

I found it months ago at Half Price Books and planned on buying it the next time or two I was out there. Unfortunately it was bought before I could get it. I was just messing around on Mandarake for stuff for a group order and found a the backlog of a lot of the issues. I saw this one and now finally have it.

Took longer but I won in the end since I only paid $0.80 for it and the one at HPB was $10.

I don't understand why this keeps happening to me when I go out to buy something else :lolol
