OFFICIAL Christmas 2003 loot thread - Page 2

Yep, Creeper's standing. Accidently broke the decapitated head that came with the package, but I glued it back together.

Bah! I never got my damn Tooth Fairy Standing, i've had it for about a year, it's slumped agains't the wall! Anyone got any tips?

...Universal Monsters Chess Set - it's sweet! Frankie & his bride are the King & Queen, as is the Mummy & his mummette. My mom got it on clearance at Spencers for only $25 (originally it was $119).

Runner Up: "Profoundly Disturbing..." by Joe Bob.

I like that Frankenstein head, Johnny. It looks like one of those old 1960's Halloween decorations, only better.

Picked up Kingdom of Spiders lastnight


it was a choice between that or the Ninth Gate

I can't believe I picked Schatner over Depp

I'd take "Kingdom of the Spiders" over "The 9th Gate" any day. Good pick. The '70s, baby. 'Schatner' is the man! I also recommend "The Giant Spider Invasion".

I got the 12" Leatherface which is sooo cool. I got a pinhead action figure. I bought Jaws and Cannibal Women in the Avocodo Jungle. I hope to get the House of 1000 Corpses figures soon with my Christmas money. I also bought the movie Psycho which I got carded for at Wal Mart because it is rated R that was funny since I don't look under 17 at all.

errrr.....the Van Zant version???

Clothes, Misfits shirt and clock, many MANY tools...but , My wife got me a shitload of DVD-Rs:

Warning Sign
Devil Dog: Hound of Hell
Scarecrows
Don't Be Afraid of the Dark
Humongous
The Unseen

can I rob you?



where do you live?

My big horror-related take of the day was a Nightmare Before Christmas pocket watch, one of the models made for crane games in the Tokyo subways by Sega. Supposedly this was one of the last made and one of the rarest, word is there are only 200 or so in existence. It has the Jack/Gravestone logo on the front and Jack's gate on the face itself. (The numerals are appropriately formed out of bones.)

Did I mention I have a kick ASS girlfriend?

Holy consumer excess, Batman!!! I'm not one to normally suggest the redistribution of wealth, but shit...you need to have a yard sale or something.

I'd also like to note that you are probably the only human being in the world to request/receive both Fatal Frame 2 AND DDR at the same time. (Watch little girls kill each other, then get your groove on!)

1. Leather Jacket
2. DVD Player (new)
3. George Forman Grill
4. Girly Crap
5. Engagement Ring
6. Socks
7. Extendable Screwdriver
8. Car Hammer
9. I'm teasing about #5.
10. But you knew that though.

Mr Dark..
Ask anyone..I am a total consumer WHORE! I am the reason that the market has not fallen through yet.

And you think I got alot. You should see what my girlfriend got. Seriously...This was a year where I felt like I could finally spoil someone who would appreciate it. She just bought and moved into her own condo so I pretty much helped furnish it.
That stuff and the diamond ear rings helped as well...

And by the way...Fatal Frame 2 is one of the best games out there...

Tony,

As if you couldn't get much higher in my estimation after witnessing your collection first hand, now you profess love for the obviously superior of the two Grease pictures? May Maxwell Caulfield bestow benevolence on your lineage, sir.


I still owe you a TCM poster, right ? Damn my sloth...

Come on Strax...

Not every day can be "Rex Manning Day!"

Even if we wish it could...

Yeah- how goes it with the poster? Not like I have any room at this point. I just got a nice lot of posters waiting to be framed.
Pirates of the Carribean teaser, Kill Bill, Blade, Mounted Texas Chainsaw 03, Scarface(for the OG in me), Big Trouble in Little China, and an Original Poltergeist poster with the Neighborhood below the text.

I have begun to rotate the posters in my apartment just to see them all occasionally.

Zombie-riffic!

When it comes to fun gifts most of my family opts to go the Simpons route for me. However my brother 'C' always comes through. He got me the Zombie Survival Handbook for Christmas (on occassion my wife and I stay at a fish camp in Northern Ontario-You can only get there by boat. It's so remote you hit scan on your radio and the scan just keeps going around and around...there is no signal for it to catch. I know where I'm heading when the dead rise!) and the Zombies game for my birthday.

In return I got him a Phantasm Death Sphere I found on e-bay.

HOLY SWEET-GIBBERING FUCK!!!!

Would it be indelicate to ask HOW MUCH you needed to shell out on family and friends to justify that haul??
Christ, I see my annual wage in that lot!!

Yes, it would be indelicate, wouldn't it...

I'll get my coat....

Most of the dvds I got were in the bargain bin at BB and the games I got were out for a while and I have no problems with used titles. My girlfriend is as much a bargain shopper as I am and got a sweet deal on almost all of my gifts. We were two of the idiots out at 5am on the day after thanksgiving...
I commend her on it as I almost shit twinkies when I saw the amount of stuff she kept bringing into my house for me.

But like I said- She made out pretty well as well.

She just bought a condo and for it I got her...

Silverware for 12 settings, Bakeware, quesadilla maker, Leather office chair, small bar/wine glass holder, 12 wine glasses, bar set, Large cool wooden jewelry box(very Hellraiser) and in it I put Diamond Ear rings and a small diamond and tanzanite(sp?)ring. A few cds that she has been wanting, dvd player, toaster oven, pizza stone, humidifier, 5 piece set of luggage(as we have a few trips planned-VEGAS BABY!), comforter and sheet set, slippers, PJs, Yankee candles, some clothes, a make up case with a 100.00 MAC gift certificate in it, a TV stand(as she just bought a 36 inch tv with a Bose home theatre for it), a set of lamps, a butt load of kitchen stuff (chair cushions, dish rack, clock)as well as bathroom stuff (razors, shampoo, Bath and Body stuff, etc) and 15 DVDs that EVERYONE should own (Suspiria, Res Dogs, Baseketball, Lost Boys, Jaws, LOTR, Gladiator to name a few) But with those in that box-I made up a little certificate that enrolls her into the Rogueboy Film School. Every month of the year she will be getting a new dvd that no film buff should be with out. (Including the 2 disk Fight Club, Seven, Seven Samurai, Natural Born Killers, etc) that she agreed to watch and then watch with commentary- She has totally gotten into films since we have gotten together.
There was more.. But just to show the playing field that we were on to show that it was even.

I have not wanted to spoil someone like this in a long time. She def deserves it for dealing with me on a reg basis...
