Matchbook

Got a bookcase on wayfair and finally got some stuff out.  Still a work in progress but this definitely freed up a lot of space.  I will probably look for a narrower one soon to get more stuff out to enjoy.  Then I gotta figure out how to show off my sealed Blizzard Series 1 action figures.

I am absolutely in love with the color scheme of that retron 5 and even though I don't neeeeeed it, erre time I see it, I want it so bad just for the color hahah

nice pickups!!

I know it gives me 80s vibes.  I think I should be wearing a windbreaker suit while I play it!  Should i be exercising or getting ready for the family photo hahahah!

I haven't posted any hunts in a while because I haven't found any in a while, but I finally have a couple cool finds. First is "Nintendo Power Summer Games," one of the more obscure bonus issues. I paid about $30 for this on eBay: 

 

Oo cool paper!  I'm such a sucker for it. 

Nice item!  GLWS

I am working on Gauntlet Legends. 

Gauntlet is so fun, no matter where you play it!  Definitely a good game night game.

Working through Rush 2049 right now.  I have finished the beginner circuit and on intermediate.  Buying a hyperkin controller has helped so much, I dont know how I played so long on a bum joystick haha!  The car responds so much better now.

Bump for new wants/remove collected items

I drive a 2012 Chevy Colorado and the Mrs. Has a 2016 Subaru Forester.

I sure do miss my 2004 Saab 9-3.  Someday I'll find and fix up a Saab 900.

Some new things knocked off the list.

Excited to play on the big tv!

Used trade in credit at local store for controller.

Playing Rocket League sporadically and just finished chapter one in Dirt 5.  I love the Dirt games and this one looks so beautiful. Thanks PS Plus for the free game.

Welcome!!  This is a really great community of awesome people! 

@DoctorEncorethose are very impressive!  I really like that Doom 3!  The Anthem one is pretty cool to. What a let down, I was so hyped for it.  It could have been so great!

@Gloveswhere di you play Elden Ring?  I dont have a PS5 yet and I have heard the PC port is buggy and has some issues.  I'm reluctant to get I  on PC right now and I dont see myself with a PS5 anytime soon.

Welcome fellow Sage!  I almost bought an Evo IX 10 years ago.  But someday I will own a saab 900 to fix up!

There are some great homebrew people here and the other Sages arent so bad either :p.  Welcome my friend!

Welcome friend!  Excited to see what you have and good luck With selling!

@the_wizard_666 I dont know what kind of housing market you live in or your current financial situation/house goals; but if you are serious about getting a place the next couple years and conventional saving is not doing it, it might be time to think about sacrificing some of what collection you have. 

I live in the US in Washington state and people are getting 100k+ over listing price.  The market is incredibly crazy and only projected to go up the next couple years at least. 

Once I moved into my first house I never wanted to go to any other form of living situation again.

Whatever you do, good luck with getting a house! It changed my life and I couldn't be happier.

I didn't ask how to open it, I asked how are you supposed to read the comic without risking wrecking it?

My mother bought me this chess set when I was a kid. She got it in Cozumel in 1995.  The board and pieces are made of some kind of stone.  I was teaching my wife how the play tonight.  It is quite heavy, a good 15 pounds.  @Tabonga thought you might like this.  I have a few other boring ones to.

A user on WhatNot is auctioning off a Rocket: Robot on Wheels prototype in about 10 mins. I dont know anything about this but thought someone might be interested.  User is below.

Pretty neat!  GLWS!

Heyo!  Welcome!

@Galdius Dang dude!!!  Do you live in a freaking warehouse?  You're entire collection must be a new wonder of the world!!

Some awesome stuff!

This is actually really inspiring!  My best friend of 20+ years has been loosely writing a story (dozens of 3 ring binders handwritten) since before I met him(7th grade).  We have talked about making it into a video game and I have been seriously debating on jumping into this type of game creating.  I think it would be fun to bring it into existence for people to enjoy.  Albeit I have no idea where to even start.  Keep up the awesome work and I can't wait to hear more about it.  It looks great!!! Keep up the good work!

@Galdiuscongrats on completing the set!  What an accomplishment indeed!

Seeing all the pictures in this thread has me thinking that every N64 game looks like an OG Pixar movie......with no smooth edges.
