Oh my gawd, last night I went to see Paul Dianno ( vocalist on Maiden's first two albums) at the Cat House and I got to meet him afterwards!!! he signed some stuff and I shook his hand like a bagillion times, I mean Paul Dianno, a legend in the metal world. What a way to round off the year, meeting Paul Dianno. Except for all the awful things which have been going on with my personal life, on a larger scale, 2005 has been the best year in a long, long time for me.

origin of superman. eh. haha someone pass me the script
Dude, I'm serious, I've actually thought up a draft 2 page script in my head, don't know if it'd be any good but hey...maybe I'll do it properly in the New Year. There won't be any speech bubbles, just quick captions
Update on AC Cloud + Fenrir, its scheduled to ship in March 2006 in window boxed packaging. Theres also a two page advert for it and the new head looks so much better then the Japanese version. I so damn want this gor-ramn bike, it'd be the best piece I own. March is too far away...
OK definately the final haul before Christmas, I got the 500th Star Wars Vader figure today for £5.99, just had to get it. I'm leaving it in its chamber, the only way its ever going to be
MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone

jikas, u ho-bag, always coming in here for some *special* service, hahaha. You won't be getting anything from me though
Yeah, the 500th is the Meditation Chamber and it's definately worth the £6.00 I parted seeing as most standard SW figures are that price.
I'll try and write the script, I have a vison of it in my head but I don't know if it'd work on paper. First thing's first, I'll give you a heads up of whats in it: Kal-El's spaceship, Jor-El and Lara, Martha and Jonathan Kent, young Clark Kent, Smallville-age Clark Kent and Superman, obviously. The script should be up before you go back to Malaysia *fingers crossed*
Wow, so many Koto Star Wars KITCH is gonna get, crazy rich kid...hahaha

Hmmm...seems from the feedback that some people have had these delivered OK although this line would make me nervous:
"10 Free Games Rondomly picked up from our whole collection on 1 DVD"
I would imagine you could get a better deal direct from a Japanese etailer?
yikhaichan
12-28-2005, 02:14 AM
The DVD with 10 games on possibly features ISOs that you have to directly copy on to your memory stick for your PSP and the ISOs were probably downloaded off the internet anyway so its not legitimate or legal.
Also if you upgrade the firmware for the PSP in anyway, you won't be able to play them unless you use hacked software to downgrade again but its too much hassle especially since newer games require you to upgrade to the latest firmware before allowing you to play.
Phoenix Blaze
12-28-2005, 03:55 AM
Yesterday wasn't as productive as it should've been, of the list I had, there was nothing to be seen, no Iori, no Piece of Mind and no Red Tallest, gah!!!! But I did come away with the Halo series 5 Arbiter ( yes!!!!), ML series 8 Iron Man ( been looking for this for a long time now), issues 0 , 1A and 1B of the new Street Fighter comic, Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 for the PS2 and Robotech series 2 on DVD.
So all in all a good haul, pity I didn't get that Iori, they had Kyo, but I don't really like his design. The ML Iron Man is pretty damn cool, best I've seen of the Iron Men.
atriot_vl
12-28-2005, 04:08 AM
ahh, my friend jus couldnt resist and went ahead and bought the thing....(with my account :o ). Looks like an OK deal. and there's some good feedbacks and we've contacted the seller...sounds ok. so hopefully it works out.
yea i think hes prob planning to play mostly iso games rather than UMD games on it. So he will need a 1.5. Some games are not cracked yet so wont be available on iso. but u'd never know...the wonders of technology eh? :D
how does the wi fi thing work?
Warning - Choking Hazard
12-28-2005, 04:31 AM
Wi-Fi is easy to set-up, there's an option on the PSP to simply 'scan' the local area for wireless signals and set the up how you like.
Edit: Sorry was going to update you guys on the SOTA SF position im in (pg 71 of this thread).... Well i STILL havn't recieved the figures, although im prepared to wait a bit longer because of the extra strain over Christmas put on postage shipping companies. CornerStoreComics said they would be sending them out on Monday 12th Dec. I have sent them 2 emails asking if they got the figures out when they said they would, but i still havn't recieved an work from them since, again, maybe this is the extra work over Christmas so i'm not too concerned yet. I'll wait and see..
Why do SOTA make buying their figures from outside the US so hard?!
atriot_vl
12-28-2005, 05:43 AM
thanks. do we need to pay anything to use the wifi? or does it jus connect to any local wireless signals? If my friend is in UK and another friend is in malaysia what kind of factors will come in play? ie. malaysian network has to support at least how many MB transfer? the coverage of wi-fi in both locations? etc
sorry to hear about ur SF delay. why not get the SF stuff locally? UK usually brings in most of the stuff anyways.

To be honest, I haven't had much problem with any obtaining SOTAs iteams, its just getting them at a reasonable price thats hard. I'm still waiting for Adon and Gen to show up in bargain bins somewhere. I need those before I fall behind, especially with Round 4 coming out very very soon (packaged images over at action-figure.com BTW).
Can't say that I've seen the Akuma bust, I haven't even seen the Shin Gouki one. Try going to Udons forum over at shoryuken.com, usually when a bust hits, they're first to post it up.

Getting rid of all mine I reckon, now that it looks as if there won't be anymore lines :(
I'm not in the least but excited about Drac wolf or bat. Can't say I'm overly bothered about ED209 either to be honest (if that's what the other one turns out to be).
I have to admit, i'm a bit peeved that McF appears to have abandoned what was surely their signature line? I realise that they pride themselves on innovation and everyone and their dog are doing horror lines now, but to cut off a big part of their fanbase just because they can't (won't?) compete for the licenses really is a slap round the face :(
Perhaps I'm speaking prematurely and perhaps this "something different that will offer you a whole new way to enjoy your favorite films" isn't just 3D posters (what a naff concept!) but it does rather look to be the end of the line.

the now playing 2 is looking really good. especially the creeper figure. with all the accesories and base and a weird damaged head :p
McF seems to be moving away from the niche market that it created and that i am interested in. The twisted stuff aint doing much for me either sadly :(

You're right Atriot, there are soem great lines around now but it's just not the same.

I know, and they are mostly quite cool, but it's just not the same as collecting from the MM series. I really don't want to start a new collection from scratch, it has taken too much time and money to get where I am now (even though I am considering shifting them).
I just wish that McF could see themselves clear to releasing one small series of MM's each year, that would be enough for me. Heck, I even got the TCM remake figs so I really don't mind which cheapass licences they go for ;)
Warning - choking hazard: I have the following MOC's (most of them are anyway) but looking to trade rather than sell probably.
Blair Witch - Dreadlock variant (Series 4)
Blair Witch - Tree variant (Series 4)
Djinn (Series 5)
Tooth Fairy - closed mouth (Series 5)
Sarah Connor - with cap (Series 5)
Ash Vs. Pit witch - Musicland Exclusive (some wear to card)

I try to have some of each movies that was released. But stuff like preds or aliens I just choose one figure. Just too much and takes up too much space. I think my Alien and Pred boxset does just nicely with that cool base :D didnt really like Legend movie but love Lord of Darkness. (cant say no to big red horned demons can I? :p ) Not so excited about the likeness for bruce campbell but Evil Dead is a classic horror (and i am a horror buff (b grade or otherwise), not those really old ones though). The MM7 Leatherface was really nice IMO too. Got Bride n gogo from KB. Jack and sally and mayor from NBX. Not loving corpse bride. but might pick up corpse bride fig. :p i wanna pick up a Jaw boxset though. I hpoe they make more sharks figures :D (please dont make figures from the March of the Penguins!)

Also got my MM King Kong from FlyingMonkey yesterday.
It's been a long time coming and it's a bit of an anti-climax now but that completes the MM line-up (other than that damn CC pred!).
Still, just bought Spawn S26 from I_rock_a_spawn so that should fill the gap in my collectors heart :)
Pics at some point soon.

I'm trying to buy a Robotech Masterpiece, I've hit buy now but the guy has his own "special" check out system cos he has an online store and when I got to finalise payment, it goes all error on me. I smell a scam, it's only costing me $28 plus $35 for shipping, which is damn cheap considering when FP sold these bad boys they went for £70 or £80, maybe a little too cheap for something like this, even the Robotech site flogs them for $99.99.

Yup, well...if you don't count 12/18" and variants that is ;) The only variants I bothered with were the Blair Witches as they were so different. Didn't have enough room, or cash, to bother with the bigguns so only kept 12" Pred and 12" Alien.
As I said though, now that I have them I don't feel the same hunger for them anymore.
I'm keeping Jaws, Kong, all Aliens and Preds, Hicks and a few other favourites. All the rest will probably hit the Bay this weekend. 99% loose with packaging though as I'm an opener.
I do have a few MOC which you can see if you follow the 'HAVES' link in my sig.
I need the space with all my Spawn's that are now due:
Complete Series 26
Billy Kincaid CC
Spawn Vs Cygor
Spawn VI
Spawn Vs Al
Spawn Vs Urizen (these last two were confirmed shipped from Towerrecords today :))

Getting the Kincaid as part of a bulk buy from i_rock_a_spawn so couldn't tell you how much they go for?
Kitch - I usually just trade on here and sell on the Bay so not sure about pricing up those MM's. I'll put some pics up later this weekend and links to the Ebay auctions if I decide to take that route. £50 for a MM Chucky is criminal, don't pay anywhere near that for it! Even the rip=off bay has seen them go for £20-£30 recently. I sold my loose one (wihout a frame) for about £5 :(

Mail Haul, first one in a few weeks. My R3 Valkerie arrived which I pilfered off of Atriot. Funny story, it was only at the last minute that Atriot realised that it was R3 and not normal, but I wasn't too bothered, I actually prefer the R3 version, has a nice tiara. Well that's all for now, I got my student money through, £1300, but that's to last me until the summer, ish, so I won't be hauling for a while now.
