32" Sony WEGA Trinitron from 2004 - my 27" tv died on me, and being super low on funds, we hit Craig's List and found some good tube tv deals. This one was $150, dude thought it was 1 year newer and had 1 more year of transferable warranty, when he found out that wasn't the case I decided to look into it online and saw it was 165 pounds, which probably meant new furniture to hold it, so I passed. 30 mins later, he called back with a counter offer of $100, I took it. It was a beast to get into the car and then out of the car and into the elevator, but my coffee table actually does hold the weight. It's very large, and has the original remote, good color, resolution isn't quite as good as my late Samsung but still decent. So it's a transition TV, but decent, especially for the price.
PS3 Motorstorm - $12 off Amazon marketplace because the box was damaged. Game plays fine though.
PS3 SW:The Force Unleashed - got it from TRU for the $20 giftcard since I didn't care for the Game Stop figure. Fun game, somewhat limited though, and too short.
Hasbro Star Wars V-19 Torrent - with my $20 giftcard, I bought the V-19 from TRU finally. They had the 25% off discount, so it came to $20.29, nice! Ok ship, I really REALLY wish the wings locked down better though, inverted play causes them to droop. Ship really needs more deco and details, too many smooth elements including the cockpit interior. And I can't get figures to hold that control stick, the shape is too weird for the hands. Good, not great.
DVD Ferris Bueller's Day Off - $7.50 at Target.
2x $8 Uniflame portable charcoal grills - it was way cheaper than buying a slightly bigger one that the vegetarians in the family would have to share.
cheap bbq tools - to go with the above.
Dr. Henry Jones - thanks to a little help from a SW buddy. Good figure, too tall, good accessories.
Young Indy - found at WM, they had a batch, all had bad paint on the face including mine. Ok figure, not enough articulation or accessories.
Hasbro Star Wars Jodo Kast - ok I guess, but very sloppy paint. One of those characters that should have been long ago, almost seems too late now.
Marvel TF Wolverine - I really dig this one. Very nifty alt mode and transformation, good robot mode but has a hard time standing due to foot design (takes action poses better than neutral), and snikt spring-loaded claws are always welcome.
Marvel TF green Hulk - interesting, not entirely satisfying but some cool ideas. I think if the bot mode had been bigger, even if just bigger legs, it would have worked a lot better.
Iron Man Blu-Ray Target Exclusive - my first Blu-Ray movie. Haven't had time to watch it yet, comes in a nifty container shaped like IM's head.
Haunted Mansion glow in the dark Playing Cards - $5 at Disneyland, and they're nicely stylized, but the g.i.t.d. aspect makes the backs gritty and I suspect that'll affect shuffling and dealing. More to look at than to play.
Tune-up for the car - gotta get it smogged this month.
TFviews News system and snazzy graphics - see for yourself.
Son of a gun, I hadn't noticed that! Good find. For Dom's sake, this little gem is when you edit the first post in the thread, when you change it to "sticky" there's a number box underneath for the amount of time it'll stay that way.onslaught86 wrote:EDIT: Awesome, we can sticky for a set number of days. That'll make the haul topics neat.
