I can't believe no one's made this topic yet...

Big objects left to right: Barbie Basics modelling doll (this is for my stop-motion films and when I make custom doll cosplays), mini Beyblade, Scott Pilgrim on DVD, Roy Mustang charm, a preloaded online Visa, Scott Pilgrim book set, Ace Attorney collaboration manga, a figure of Kaho from Sister Princess (whom I don't quite know, but my mother thought was nice).

Not shown: GaoGaiGar season one (which was on my shelf at the time), Lupin III Revoltech (which I bought with that preloaded card).

The only thing I'd return is the Scott Pilgrim movie (since I only really wanted the books or the DVD), and use the money to get Tezuka's Ayako. Looking back, I'm kind of glad I didn't get Ayako on Christmas Day because I know I would've read the whole thing in one day. Last year, I got MW and did this...if you've seen even part of MW, you'll know it's not really Christmas material.


Anyway! What did the lot of you get?

The Astro Boy movie on DVD. I have not seen it since October 2009!

I also got another movie on DVD. The movie isn't that good but I like the dance portions and it wasn't very expensive.

It was all I had asked. I was even supposed to get only one of the two. Everything else I badly want is much more expensive and I'd rather buy it myself. :cool: Definitely no overconsumption in my household this year, except for seafood! :D

Not to sound like I'm bragging or anything,

But my dad got me an HDTV for my room to replace the 12-year old telly that kinda died on us. To be completely honest, I wish the old telly hadn't died since I prefer it and its blurry screen, but oh well.

And candy too.

Edit: I see Fauna has Ace Attorney: Miles Edgeworth's Casefiles. Does this mean you're an AA fan too?

Well, I didn't get that much but I'm still happy with what I got. I got a very good printer for my computer and a turtle beach headset for my PS3. Both I'm loving, hope everyone else is happy with what they got for Christmas.

@Dr. Jerk: I'm not as big of a fan as other people, but indeed I am. I got into the series earlier this spring after my father got me Ace Attorney Investigations for my birthday.

@Uran&Astro1980: He's the little thing between the strawberry and the package of books (with the sprite art on the case). I think he's supposed to be something like a zipper pull, but he's too tiny for that.


You guys, I hate to suddenly hijack my own thread, but I need help deciding on what big item I've always wanted to get with the remainder of my gift card...the Tetsujin 28 movie artbook, or a Figma of Urusei Yatsura's Lum? I'm a huge Tetsujin fan and love seeing concept art and animator's guides, but Lum's figure is excellently-sculpted and super-poseable. Both items have an equal standing in my mind, and it actually causes pain to try and choose...

Ah! I actually didn't get any new PMs in the past while... :( Could you resend it to me? (There's an easy way if you go into the "Sent" section, find your message and hit "forward"...I want to see what you sent, but I'm mad at my Inbox for not accepting it!)
