Ganepark32 Posted December 16, 2018 Posted December 16, 2018 Was looking for something new to read comic wise and so I've settled on these: Been interested in reading The Umbrella Academy for awhile and thought I'd get a read in before it turns up on Netflix in February. Liked the sound of East of West and heard good things about it and Kill or be Killed so thought I'd give them a go. Had been looking at Saga but I'll wait and see how these go first.

EEVILMURRAY Posted December 22, 2018 Posted December 22, 2018 Remix of an old Noise Marine. Loved these back in the day but never had them. 1 1

All Blu-Rays are Special/Collector editions Full Series of Noein Season 1 of Ajin: Demi-Human Season 3 of Black Buttler Season 1 Part 1 of Erased Princess Arete The problem with these boxes is that you don't know what you're getting. As such, I've ended up with two copies of the special edition of Noein... I've been looking into Erased and it looks like i'll be buying the second part next year or so. You can already watch Ajin on Netflix but it's nice to have a disc I guess. Princess Arete is probably the one i'm most interested in. Was looking into buying it sometime and looks like I don't have to anymore. This is only the first box. There should be another one arriving after Christmas. Edited December 24, 2018 by martinist 2

To be fair though, for the price you will make a profit selling that Noein set on. Erased from what I've heard is a modern masterpiece and was something I plan on getting at some point. My Copy of Hyouka Part one arrived but the box has been slightly damaged which sucks, the placeholder box is damaged too but it's only a placeholder for part 2 so not so bad, I've gotta wait to hear back from their support service for my options. EDIT: They are sending me a replacement after the festive period. They even replied just before midnight, very happy with that kinds customer service. Edited December 25, 2018 by Emerald Emblem 1
Sméagol Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 I bought oil spheres and some apple things (sorry I have no idea what to call them in English haha) for New Year's Eve again. We have a popular stand in my own town.. And I think I stood in line for almost an hour. Yes I bought plenty of Holiday food this month. You've seen my Chocolate letters, and I also bought Christmas bread. Ehh all typical Dutch stuff. Next year I'll make and post pictures.. Some other stuff this month: A Christmas Nijntje. My brother bought another one more obviously Christmas, one dressed in a Santa suit. My last physical game this year. Another Limited Run release. A few Lego minifigures as extra presents for Sinterklaas and Christmas for my brother and myself. And Westworld season 2 on blu-ray. Chritsmas haul is in the Merry Christmas thread.
martinist Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 They were both a pound so I thought I might as well. Heard some good things about Ghost Squad especually.
Fierce_LiNk Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 That reminds me. I still have all of the House of the Dead games to play on the Wii, including Overkill. Not sure I'm ever going to get around to it!
Sméagol Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 It's a good thing then, that if you don't want to do 100%, they're pretty short games!
martinist Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 Hermese finally showed up yesterday. I'm never letting any company send something this expensive with Hermese again...

While it looks cool and all, I don't have to point out that not having the soundtrack on actual vinyl is a bit of a missed opportunity?

All the more to collect vinyl bitch. I've seen the Doom Soundtrack on vinyl on Amazon for £40 or so. all the better to buy a record player bitch. Hi i'm drunk. I've also got the Life is Strange: Before the Storm Soundtrack on Vinyl so I might as well buy a record player.
Will Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Realised when I was back in the UK that TV and Netflix is a million times better than it is here. Bought a new router that can be flashed with VPN software so all my devices think I'm there and I have full access to almost all UK content.

martinist Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 After a month of waiting I finally have the second mystery box that I ordered. They seemed to have a lot of logistic problems >_< All sets are Special/Limited Edition The Case of Hana and Alice Gangsta (complete series) Attack on Titian: Junior High (complete series) Ouren High School Host Club (complete series) Tokyo ESP (complete series) Actually have nothing from this box so it's nice not to have doubles this time. Gangsta looks interesting and I was planning on buying it sometime so it's nice for it to turn up in here.The AoT spin off looks like a wierd slice of life thing and Tokyo ESP sounds good going by what I've read.
Sméagol Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 The case of Hana & Alice is great. Was considering getting it as well this month, when I ordered some stuff from CDJapan.
Hogge Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 H&M strangely have a whole bunch of N64 garments. So I bought this cool t-shirt. (Note: not me in the picture) 2
Sméagol Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Really? Haha, I need to get me one of those.. 1

And I received the following in January: Like I said in the film 2018 thread.. One cut of the dead is my favourite film of 2018. And it had just been released in the UK, you can buy it on Amazon, check it out people! I'm buying an extra UK copy for convenience. The Japanese version doesn't have subs. The blu-ray release is actually new in japan as well, and this is my first ever first press release! Got my first clear file as a bonus! I don't know what to do with it! Your name is the super ultra deluxe 5 disc set, including an ultra HD blu-ray which I can't use yet. I also received these from Big Bad Toy store:
