Nothing for me as of yet, though if Amazon has another DOTD with Manhunt 2 for PS2 and drops it another $5, I may bite. Otherwise, I'm just biding my time and waiting and hoping the BB clearance this winter is as good to me as it was last year.

Bwaa?? Wait, what BB clearance? Do they normally have a winter clearance?

Last year, they had some decent games for $1.99 each to blow them out. I snagged 2 Beatmania Bundles for $4 and change total during last years clearance blowout. Of course, most of anything else was already spoken for by the employees by the time the store opened, including copies of Samurai Western, which I still wanna try but won't pay anywhere near retail for.
The list was pretty huge last year, which was the first year I got in on it.

Also, a game in the form of a late Christmas present came in the mail: Final Fantasy Chronicles. I don't know why I put this on my Amazon wish list to begin with...

Try dryer sheets or some crystals type kitty litter (so you don't get them covered in clay dust).

Dryer sheets will probably just mask the smell for a bit. It won't remove it.

WTH :hot::hot::hot:....how did you get that for so cheap?
I found a glitch on CC's website that kept listing Persona 3 for $9.99 (it said $49.99, but added it as $9.99 to the cart, but never let me actually checkout). I picked up 10 copies (2 from 5 Sears) and printed out the page. I PMed all 10 successfully (though one store it took a hassle for the CM to understand that to pricematch an online price it didn't need to be in stock at a B&M store). The day I actually did the PM, CC pulled Persona off their website completely. Spent $100 to get $600 in Persona 3.

I doubt I'll buy anything this month other than maybe some XBL points. I have enough games to keep me busy until the holiday 2008 season. I really don't see myself buying any new games before the summer. I don't buy DVDs or CDs so I should be good to go for the first 1/2 of the year... well, maybe I'll buy some arcade parts for my newest creation but that's all I can see...

WHERE? It retails for $39.99!
I picked up a few XBox games.. B1G1F at Hastings. All mint/complete.
MLB 2K5 World Series Edition (4.99)
Myst 3: Exile (4.99)
Dead to Rights ($4.99/Free)
Stolen ($4.99/Free)
Splinter Cell: Double Agent ($9.99)
Capcom vs SNK 2 EO ($9.99/free - FINALLY!)
I've never seen Capcom vs. SNK 2 EO that cheap. I've wanted the WS edition of MLB2K5 for a while, but I don't usually run across it, especially not that cheap. I was really excited for Double Agent, too, since it's pretty much an entirely seperate game from the one on the 360.

It's not game related but I as I was driving home from my sisters I noticed a green glow on the opposite side of the road. Curious, I turned around, stopped next to it, and picked it up. I didn't get a good look at what it was since I was stopped in the middle of the road. At first it looked like a reflector housing for an array of eight green LEDs and a battery pack. When I got home I realized what I thought was the reflector housing was really a solar charger to recharge the batteries.
I thought it was cool anyways.

Nah I actually wanted one but I didn't think that store had any after I checked the website. I just ask the employee if he did. The DS was more of a spur of the moment thing that has since past.:)
Its funny because I only had one instance where an employee was being a uber fanboy and tried to sway me into buying a 360.

The 3 PS1 games were going to come out to $37.00, but I asked the pawnies if they could sell them for $30. They agreed. $9.99 each. Fair price.
The others came from a thrift store, and were $1.91 each.

1 of every 30 copies of Lunar SSSC is the Fan Art discs. very few makes it on ebay sometimes alot of sellers thinks they are all the same disc so they dont even note it on their topics or description.

Picked these up over the past few days:
Pawn shops:
Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies(PS2)- $5.95
King Kong(PS2)- $5.99
Casino Royale(2-Disc DVD)- $4.99
Also saw complete copies of Silent Hill 3(PS2) for $9.95 & The Sims 2(GC) for $4.99, but passed. Both would've probably turned $4-$5 profit at GS, but figured I'd be wasting that just in gas driving there. Also passed on a complete copy of Black(PS2) for $8.99.
Picked these up at a Gamestop that takes good care of used games:
Billy Hatcher & the Giant Egg(GC)- $4.50
Batman: Vengeance(GC)- $5.40
Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy(PS2)- $4.50
Power Drome Racing(PS2)- $1.80
Got those prices after the Edge card. I know I'll probably get a lot of crap about that last game, but it's actually pretty decent for a Wipeout clone. Passed on a copy of Fire Emblem:PoR for GC, because it was disc only.

Oh man, I've gotta get me one of those...
I went a little crazy with the toys this month. Lots of Sega crane machine figures and Square Enix Play Arts:
Sega Evangelion figures. The first set is a rerelease; I hunted down the originals for years. Got them at Play-Asia for a decent price. The second set is now out of print, but the price wasn't too bad:
http://www.blueshinra.com/temp/forums/evafigs_1.jpg
http://www.blueshinra.com/temp/forums/evafigs_3.jpg
A third set of Sega Evangelion figures with a JRPG theme. Also, a complete set of Dragon Quest VIII Play Arts. Yangus looks like he's discolored some (a common problem with certain Play-Arts), and Jessica looks like she might have some discoloration as well (to a lesser extent), but they look fine overall, and the price was right (about $40 for the lot, before shipping):
http://www.blueshinra.com/temp/forums/dq_vs_eva.jpg
Those Selphie and Kadaj Play Arts I mentioned a long time ago on this thread, but never posted pics of. You can't really see it in this pic, but Selphie has some discoloration problems herself:

Tifa and Aeris Play Arts. The Tifa one is awesome - she looks just like the original character design! Aeris looks like she has this flat expression on her face... meh; I'm more of an Aeris fan than a Tifa one, so that's something of a letdown. Didn't get Cloud because I'm holding out for the Hardy Daytona set, so the girls'll have to fight over Advent Children Cloud in the meantime :lol::

Monsieur Bome Collection Vol. 8 - K0S-MOS from Xenosaga. Didn't like this game, but the character designs are nice. I wanted to get this one while visiting San Francisco over a year ago (that city's an import toy mecca), but I wouldn't have had room in my luggage. Fortunately, it seems she hasn't accumulated in price (yet?); I paid the original SRP:

Oh, and I also bought a pile of Final Fantasy VII doujinshi. The pages are faded on some of them (no surprise... some of the books are 9-10 years old), but many of them are by an artist who's a favorite with collectors, plus they were cheap (after shipping, they came to less than $10 each)!

One of the doujinshi: a beautiful FFVII/FFT crossover with Cloud and Aeris. Knew I was never going to find this book again, so I got it:

Other than those and that copy of DQM: Joker that I (also) mentioned earlier, that's all for this month... so far. I have a set of Monster Hunter figures on the way from Japan, but they probably won't get here until sometime in February.

How is the articulation on these?Haven't opened these ones up yet, but both Aeris and Tifa's boxes say they have over 22 points of articulation.
If they're anything like previous FF Play Arts I've bought, they should be highly poseable; maybe Aeris not so much because of her dress.

I got a giftcard from GameStop as a late BDay present so I bought the following
XBox - Real World Golf complete - 17.00
XBox - RalliSport Challenge - 5.00
N64 - Mario Tennis - 4.00
N64 - Kobe Bryant Courtside - 1.00
I still have 20 dollars left so I might be picking up more XBox games

Well here's what I got as I swung by the outdoor flea market yesterday:
http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f165/cledus2000/sneses.jpg
Aerobiz and Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest for the SNES.
http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f165/cledus2000/skeleton.jpg
Skelteton Warriors for the Sega Saturn. I never watched the cartoon in 1994 seeing as I was already a junior in high school and was probably more interested in sleeping in on Saturday mornings. Still, this is a pretty cool game with a lot of dark and spooky themes and artwork.
http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f165/cledus2000/saturnmanuals.jpg
Skelteton Warriors also came stuffed with these extra manuals. May be worth keeping if I happen to find Fighting Vipers without the instructions some day.

I also got this SNES Cleaning Kit for $2.00. I have always wanted one for some reason. The box is a little tattered, but it seems pretty complete, otherwise. The cleaning wands and cards are pretty much spotless.
The grand total for this one-hour spree was $12.00 (plus $2.00 for parking). And I also got to enjoy a Mexican imported Coca-Cola in the glass bottle. It's better because it uses sugar instead of high fructose corn sweeteners!

Also, a complete set of Dragon Quest VIII Play Arts. Yangus looks like he's discolored some
Every Yangus figure I've ever seen here in Japan is colored the same way, sadly.
If they're anything like previous FF Play Arts I've bought, they should be highly poseable; maybe Aeris not so much because of her dress.
Yeah, unfortunately the Aerith figure is really limited in what you can do with her due to the dress. Find new ways to make her hold that staff, I guess! I also wish her eyes were a little smaller, so she'd blend in with my Cloud and Sephiroth Advent Children toys - I don't plan on getting any more of the "classic" figures. And sadly, the Cloud figure in the new assortment looks a bit odd, possibly because they couldn't hide all of his joints as well as with some of the other figures. Meh.

I've seen some in NYC stores that were a bit lighter, but that's probably because they were kept out of the sun; the set I got was from an eBay seller.
I also wish her eyes were a little smaller, so she'd blend in with my Cloud and Sephiroth Advent Children toys - I don't plan on getting any more of the "classic" figures.I'm sort of the other way around - I wish Aeris' eyes were slightly bigger, to better match the original character design it was based off of. If they did that and made her smile a little, it would make it just as good as the Tifa figure. In general, I've always preferred the "old" style to the Advent Children one.

Regarding the Mexican Coke, you can get them at Costco. $18 for 24 bottles, IIRC.

Went out with $20 in my pocket today and ended up with:
1x Minty NES, just a bit dusty
2x NES controllers, minty
2x Black N64, both with power adapters, but no vid :(
1X Green N64 controller, may be broken, but was free
Journey to Silius (NES)
To the Earth (NES)
Mario Bros/Duck Hunt (NES)
Kung Fu (NES)
Gyromite (NES)
And the happiest part of the score:
Sega Saturn Virtua Stick, in original (but beat to hell) box, in awesome condition for $1.
One guy at the flea market had a ROB, missing all accessories and dirty. He wanted $10 for it and I made the mistake of pushing it and CIF'ed $5, and he said he decided he'd rather not sell it. Personally, I don't think he was aware he even had it, as I found it in a box buried under a bunch of crap. :(
