More Blu!

Last payday purchase of the year. All under $8! I have set a budget for my BD buying and I can't go past that.

Dracula - Winona Rider at her cutest and Gary Oldman was awesome as Dracula.
The Dark Crystal - One of my favorite movies when I was a kid! A must have!
Friday - Nate and his brothers are always quoting this movie.
Labyrinth - Another favorite of my teen years. Oops! I seem to be dating myself.
Silent Hill - Best game to movie adaptation in my opinion. I have ALL the games. I haven't played any of them longer than five minutes because I am too scared. T_____T 

You Don't Mess With The Zohan - The only reason I got this movie is for Nick Swardson.


Estimated delivery date around January 18, 2011.

I Like Blu

I've been buying a lot of blu-rays lately since Black Friday. Not for full price mind you. Only when it's on sale. Just like the VHS tape, the DVD format is now a dinosaur and it is time to upgrade our movie collection. Here's a few I ordered after Christmas:

Not all of my anime will probably be ported over to blu-ray if they are available in that format. Some are just meh, i.e. storyline, and don't need to be upgraded. There are a few exceptions however, like Full Metal Panic. I like this series because it's light-hearted and not meant to be taken as a serious mind bender like some other series I can mention.

There's not a lot of anime I like on blu-ray. Most of the time it's ridiculously expensive but these dipped below $18 each for full series sets so I got them all. I used my Christmas gift cards too so total shipped after discount is only $2.47! Estimated delivery time because of free shipping is around January 10, 2011.Can't wait!

Bwana Spoons Blind Box Madness 2010 - Opening the Box

Our family Christmas Party ended at almost at 1 AM. Clean-up took an hour. When we finished it was already 2. Since I am full of sugar from the ice cream cake, cookies etc, I figured I can open one present and I wanted to open my blind box from Bwana.

Opening my box.

Oooo! Getting excited...

I pull an original painting by Bwana! O_____O!!

I find the last bundle in the box...

I pull a Custom Steven #50! So stoked!

The back of the custom!

My blind box loot! I also got some taffy, a couple of cards and a candy cane-like figure of a snake. I hope Bwana does this again next year. I really enjoyed it! Merry Christmas to me!

Blind Box Madness Christmas 2010

I got my blind box from Bwana yesterday. It went straight under our tree. There's presents there from family and from Nate that I am dying to open but I am holding out until Christmas. I love the season and the anticipation reminds me of when I was a kid during Christmas time. I am not about to ruin that wonderful feeling just because I want instant gratification. Some things are worth the wait.

I also got my Turtle Giz along with my blind box. It's a lot bigger than I thought it would be and I am quite pleased with the coloring. I can't wait to see where this sculpt goes!
