Recent purchases.

Guys, I put those behind a spoiler for a reason. Please edit your posts and re-insert my spoiler tags.

But yes, I agree, that is the best photo ever.

Phone post! I felt bad about it!

[Kinokokao]

wait, what, no, Starfe, sorry! Not you.

Sorry, I meant the photos I posted of my friend and the pedobear. Yuna, negzee, and Maxine all quoted the image outside its spoiler tags, when I explicitly put the photos behind spoiler tags because they're of my friends and not me, and I respect their privacy. Not so much that I won't post the photos, because they're hilarious, but enough that I'd prefer them hidden somewhat.

SO! I THINK I have the Skyward Sword bundle ordered...

I went to the store and they said, "sorry, you're two days late to preorder the game." So I preorder the regular version and get the cheaper attachment for the motion plus - and realize when I get home it doesn't have the sleeve so I will probably be taking it back.

Went online while at B&N and saw that amazon was also not accepting any more preorders for the bundle. So I gave up and went home. Then a few hours ago wanting to double check something on gamestop (unrelated to skyward sword) I see an ad for the bundle.... *click* .... it still is giving the option for ordering it.... *shrugs* So, what the hell, I go through it and set it up to be picked up in store (fuck if I'm going to pay shipping and handling!) and it says it will arrive on the 20th. Keeping in mind I've never ordered off the website.

I'm still waiting for an e-mail that will say "sorry, but, we really WEREN'T offering that anymore. It's too late to get the bundle." But I've got the confirmation number and everything and it's printed out and I guess I take it to the store to pick this thing up. *shrugs* If it's not there, well I still have my money down for the other edition.

... I wonder if best buy has the wireless attachment WITH A SLEEVE.... *mutters and stomps off* well hopefully if I get the bundle I won't have to worry about the damn thing. Though considering the fact that I'm still contemplating this thing's fate should tell you how little faith I have in actually getting the bundle. Pessimism! I'll never be disappointed and maybe sometimes I will be mildly surprised. (It's what I call Optimistically Pessimistic!)

Oh shit. Is it to late to pre-order?!

Only for the bundle. Though I dunno, the gamestop website still seems to be taking them ... or maybe not. Dunno. Just in store they said that it was closed.

Preorders are still, obviously, being taken on the normal game edition.

I know, but I wanted the bundle. They took the bundle off the Canadian site, but not the US one. Now I'll have to buy a regular wii+ thing. :[

I ordered a replacement touch screen/digitizer for my little Android phone. It arrived yesterday! I can't wait to sit down and replace this broken screen! It's been half-covered in a moth's-wing pattern of shattered glass for months.

I really enjoy tinkering. ^ 3^

Again, can't play it until christmas. :[

Oh btw - I dunno if I mentioned this but :3 I got the bundle. Really good thing too because the dumbass that gave me my preorder (and the wii motion attachment I ended up returning) only charged me for the motion thing but didn't put in for the preorder for the game. Dumbass. I would have been pissed.

I will admit to the idea that I've never seen the series, and probably will not plan to due to mixed reviews. I guess there's a meaning loss in that sense.
However, despite that, I obviously have kept this figure in mind, as the day I randomly think about it, it turns out it's on sale for $50. It's also from what I can assume is a stellar company. 6 out of 8 of my figures are school girls of some kind, and of the other 2, it turned out one is a bootleg. So I've also been looking at decent, non-erotic figures of more traditional/ flowy dress. Plus, I like the colors. So overall, I like the design. Normally goes for 100 on Ebay, so I'm paying half that through this site.

So far, two opinions have said it'd be worth it, one of which is a collector. So I'm pretty much just waiting on a third one from someone else I know, plus whatever the shipping is from this company.
If anything, that collector suggested that if I end up not liking it, I can just wait a year or two, and sell it since it'd only go up, especially if I decide to do so before taking it out.
