I tried to like Fallout 3, but those dreary subway sections all look the same. Each vault gets less interesting the more you’ve seen. But I’ll try to properly finish that game one day. Edit: I love water temples. I think it’s hilarious somebody always mentions them when Zelda is being discussed.. And I think it’s hilarious that the majority (it seems) hates them and / or find them difficult. That said, I have the same problem with sewer levels and “flesh-hell” levels. I haven’t finished System Shock 2 yet because that level I’m in is so unappealing, luckily the rest was awesome.

Yeah, I forgot about them (the manufacturer), eventhough I saw their latest Enterprise (NX-01) and that other ship from the last film on Tomopop. They look incredible, but all they made me do was think “I want a high-detail replica of the Enterprise-E”, which they don’t seem to have. Some of the other Enterprises would be cool too though, but they’re a bit.. over my budget. Anyway, I think you’d like this one? It’s certainly more affordable :p.

Ehm yeah. As a kid, I usually destroyed my toys or my brother’s eventhough I didn’t do it on purpose. Casualties of war include the Transformer Silverbolt, that MASK car Ramar posted, a Robotech jet, several Lego sets (all lost in “the big bucket”, where legosets go when they die), and various anonymous stuffed animals. Some toys of my brother I wrecked include He-man, some Turtles and I think there are more. What I do have left are various Transformers in various conditions. None of them even have the sticker, but some of them are still relatively complete accessory-wise. The most famous one of them would probably the lead of the Headmasters. I didn’t have any of the “really” oldskool G1 Transformers. Some legosets survived, I have a few oldskool Lego space sets that are displayed on my shelf (but collecting dust unfortunately). I think I’ve posted a photo of those before. I also have an old Monchchichi, and my most prized possession regarding old toys would be a Märklin trainset. No box or anything, but still complete and in working order. Maybe I’ll make some photos if I clean my room out, and can find all of them in their boxes. As seen in the 2 collectable thread, I collect new toys now . I totally made up for not owning the old G1 Optimus Prime by buying the Master Piece . I would buy more of those, but they’re expensive . Soundwave is about to be re-released I think, but I already had some pre-orders lined up.

I think it’s a year. I lost some earlier this year. I was checking my points whenever the newsletter came around (it tells you when points will expire), then I didn’t check one month, and I lost most of them. I hadn’t many left to start with, 1200, but that was enough for at least some Nintendo points .

Those are just announced figures, so these are prototypes. They will be painted later (which also means there’s a possible chance they can still screw them up). If I had to paint them myself, I wouldn’t be as interested.. I’d like to try my hand at garage kits or painting models in general someday, but then I’ll start with cheap warhammer figures, or even make my own clay figures.

That’s funny, I posted this on Facebook a few days ago. I love the song, but apart from that, this is actually my favourite video of all time. Edit: So, it’s actually not a thing you like and everybody hates .

Haha, now I’ll have to look for ’m! Seriously though, first episode, I was “What the”, but he’s actually great.

No Game of Thrones, but pretty good.

I personally want this to be as broad as possible, but I guess I should narrow it down as to not to interfere with other threads like the pocketwatch thread too much. So post here the non-Nintendo games * / anime / movies merchandise and toys you have, or want. I’ll include designer toys. Old, new, whatever. * As Nintendo related collectables can be posted [here]. I’m going to break my own rules immediately by stating I’ve recently purchased a Pullip: Yes, I bought a doll. Deal with it! I’ve wanted one for years, but never got around to it, as they're quite more expensive than the average pvc figures. But when that cute little witch came around, the time was right. On a sidenote, I have plans for her.. It happens that my father wants me to test his old camera. I hope to take some pictures soon. Anyway, the reason I started this thread because there were some other game-related pvc figures announced which took my fancy, but they’re not Nintendo-related so don’t fit in the other thread. Labrys from Persona 4 arena is looking cool: But I already pre-ordered Mitsuru who was also looking hot and awesome. The Dragon Crown beauties are all getting figures. Based on the artwork, I prefer the witch (I seem to have a thing for witches), but so far I’m not amazed by the sculpt. The elf on the other hand, is looking good: Then this. I’ve only played Silent Hill: shattered memories, so I don’t know any other characters, but god, this figure of Heather looks amazing: But damn, the poor girl looks like she could use a hug.. There are also figures coming of those nurses. They look awesomely disturbing. Of those 3 I’m seriously considering getting Heather. Some of you may be familiar with the Jaina Solo figure.. I pre-ordered her re-release. To go alongside her, is Mara Jade, who is looking sexy as hell: Slated for February I think, and looking like an instant buy to me, eventhough I barely know anyone from the expanded universe. I’ll leave you with an anime-related Nendoroid. It’s the colossal Titan from Attack on Titan in chibi form, which is just hilarious. I have not seen the anime (I rarely see any anime), but I think I’d like this one. Unfortunately, I’ve been spoilered a bit by watching some videos on Youtube. For some hilarious photos of miniature titans eating even smaller humans, you can visit [this blog].

They’re still readily available for pre-order on the internet. I’d get them there if I were you, much easier. Get them from the Asian sites as well, £ 50,- seems like a rip-off (that’s apiece?). Ok, here we go: After Lloyd and Xellos, we get Collette! Made by Kotobukiya, and slated for somewhere in 2014. Makes me confident we’ll get Sheena as well. Fucking awesome: Nintendoroids! A Luigi and Windwaker Link Nendoroid are on their way! I’m officially dubbing them Nintendoroids. I’ve always wanted a Nendoroid, I think they’re cute, but I never got around to it. Well, apart from the Tachikoma Nendoroid I have. And I bought the Iron Man Nendoroid for my brother’s birthday.. Anyway. This is old news, but I haven’t mentioned this 1/6th scale Link action figure: Made by Medicom for their Real Action Heroes line. Slated for November. Chun-Li’s sculpt has been revealed: Looks awesome. Slated for January. I think that’s all the Nintendo-related stuff I’ve seen from Wonder Festival 2013. Anyone opposed to an “other collectables” thread? Because there’s more awesome stuff I’m looking forward to. Or does such a thread already exist?

I had not heard about that game, but had a quick look. It seems to have more of an simulation angle. This is about exploration, but also survival. You’re playing an astronaut, and there is a story involved.

The news is pretty recent.. Or do you mean the game in general? You can still pledge at their site :P. http://www.redthreadgames.com

This looks interesting to me, but I’m a bit late: Lacuna passage [Kickstarter] 2 hours left :P. But the project already raised its goal, so it’s all good! I haven’t backed it myself yet, purely because I’m not sure if I actually have the funds for it this month. I think I have, but well.. 2 hours to find out for sure :P.

Sorry, can’t be bothered to do a proper opening post. When I can, I’ll edit this post. The sequel to The longest journey and Dreamfall: the longest journey. A 3rd person adventure with point & click roots. It was a very successful Kickstarter project some months ago, one which I backed. I thought I already had made a thread about it, but apparently I only posted about it on this forum in the Kickstarter thread. And now it has been confirmed it’s coming to WiiU as well, which is why I’m posting it here rather than in the other consoles forum. The game will be released end of 2014. Edit 14-07-2018: Since I'm bumping this thread anyway, I edited in the trailer for the final cut. https://www.redthreadgames.com/dreamfall-chapters https://www.redthreadgames.com/

Sorry for flaking out guys.. I started out enthousiastically with my first game in quite a while, but then the enthousiasm plummeted. I dunno. Again, my sincerest apologies, especially to Jonnas.

Is that hunch based on anything in particular? (just asking)

The last image? That’s Dr. Wily’s castle from the Megaman games.

Last few films seen (of which the last one tonight): - Ginger & Rosa (again) Elle Fanning is absolutely amazing. - Die Wand Bit of an existentialist film.. A woman is trapped in a mountain area by an invisible wall, and she believes to be the only survivor of a catastrophe. What do you do? People wanting an explanation for the wall will be disappointed, the film focusses purely on the woman and her thoughts. I liked it, but it’s not for everyone. - Frances Ha Sweet New York comedy about Frances, who doesn’t seem to get a break in life. Dry humour, sympathetic characters. I like it. - The iceman Based on a true story about a hitman. The awesome Michael Shannon plays Richard Kuklinksy, family man by day, killer by night. A very interesting character, which makes for a gripping drama. Also, David Schwimmer is in it .

The PC DLC is available now! I’m downloading it as I type.. for free! (it’s free if you purchased season 1 directly from TellTale).

Oh wow, as of now my biggest reason to get a 3DS. No reason to still try to get [that import copy of M01] then I guess . In the meantime, I’ll go play with the DS10 version again.

Penny-arcade had an article about it some time ago. Weirdly enough, one of the Nintendo land games (I think) reminded them of it. Concept sounded cool, but I think I get too nervous if I play it .

There are various songs on my mind, but I want to share this one. For everyone who loves the 90’s dance sound but also want a new song to listen to: Even the video is 90’s..

“It was a bad time for François to run out of sandpaper to remove his makeup.”

Yeah, I was thinking I should check these things beforehand . I honestly couldn't find my voicechat settings quickly enough. I had it set to push to talk, and I had to figure out which key I had set for it. That said, I don’t say much anyway. Me and Deathjam used Skype for Mass Effect. I don’t know what people use with Team Fortress usually? With teams scrambling often, I wonder how people organise this.
