Ok, the day is here, for some of us it's already over!

What geek swag did you get given then? Anything good?

Me, I got a really cool Batman Manga Graphic Novel, very 1966 in style, with loads of colour photo's of toys from that era in it as well from my good lady

Also, got a Doctor Who 3D Chess Set, latest Doctor, 3D in that it's got lenticular images in the peices that move as you look at them


We built this city on Rock and Roll!

My most "geeky" Christmas gift probably came from a COH pal, Stone Daemon. He had Layla make me a COH hat with a Warshade logo on it.

Lego Star Wars AT-AT. I get to look forward to putting this together over the next week.


I find your lack of signature disturbing.

Well, technically it was a gift to my brother, but since we mostly share our collections, I think I can count the copy of Cable & Deadpool: Volume 2 that he got. We've had all the other volumes since forever but somehow couldn't find volume 2. ^.^

I also received a Maltese Cross keychain, which goes nicely with my love of crusaders and Black Templar space marines.

I couldn't think of anything either, so I told everyone a gift card would be fine.

I got up to $150 total in PlayStation Network cards. Tactics Ogre, here I come.

Probably gonna grab mostly PSP games, since I already have a vast amount of PS1 and PS3 games on my PS3's HDD.

1: Cute and i can see a cat in the background looking somewhere behind you.
2. Prank gift?
3. Can't read which Transformer that is. Don't recall who it is I've only seen parts of G1 due to reruns and VHS.

I got a box of frankenincense and myrrh, one of those plasma ball thingies, and a Galileo thermometer. Along with a boatload of anime that I bought for myself.

The first two seasons of Fringe, with an accidental extra copy of Season 1 which I'll be trading in for Season 3.


'I don't like the look of it at all,' said the King: 'however, it may kiss my hand if it likes.'
'I'd rather not,' the Cat remarked.
'Don't be impertinent,' said the King, 'and don't look at me like that!' He got behind Alice as he spoke.
'A cat may look at a king,' said Alice.

Which would make him New School Prime at best.

Forgot to say that i got 5 'tubes' of Mini-MMs in my stocking. Too bad i don't have the money to get Reboot: The Definitive Mainframe Edition. That was a fun show, they got 2 seasons on Netflix but i want to watch it all again.

Might make a Homage char to Reboot someday.

nothing geeky for me, i got a 2-24 lb weighted vest, a AAA membership renewal and some chocolate pretzels. but for my steampunk enjoying little brother i got a brass sextant to go with his brass telescope and compass. also got him a signed copy of the new abney park cd that i will be "borrowing" quickly. both of those quailify for the geeky subheading.

The complete Flash live action series.

The complete (Lynda Carter) Wonder Woman live action series.

The complete Monty Python collection (been hoping for this one forever, and seeing as how I'm just finishing up my b'day present of the complete Kids in the Hall series...)

The whole run of The Cape (it was cheesy but a guilty pleasure. Just wished they actually gave it some kind of ending...)

A TON of other, less iconic geeky movies like Coraline, Chocolate (the martial arts movie), Zombieland, etc.

My wife made out like a bandit on the anime geek scale though. A lot of Full Metal Alchemist stuff (figures and such- I got her Edward's pocket watch for her birthday) A bunch of anime DvD's (like FMA: Brotherhood, and Black Butler- neat series if you haven't seen it).

The best thing I got was a drama-free holiday. I don't know how it was done but I'm sure it was done very carefully LOL

Anyway, we basically got a lot of DvD's we're going to be spending this next year watching, if we don't burn through them over our holiday vacations

Glad to see a lot of other folks getting great hauls too! Hope everyone had a good one!

I couldn't agree more.

Geeky stuff: just a couple of graphic novels this time around - Dresden Files "Welcome To The Jungle" and Serenity "Those Left Behind" - yes, I didn't have it yet, try not to faint - plus a random dollar store present of a Buffy Stake Your Own Adventure book...

Other than that, just a two-foot-wide Laughing Buddha statue, a Sephora makeup artist's box set and new boots


Is it time for the dance of joy yet?

6 months of Netflix and some NHL stuff. I didn't know they made NHL team branded hammers. Apparently they do.


They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

Didn't get much this year. Most of the focus was getting presents for the kids and not the adults, which made sense.

I got an IOU for a Transformer later...... need to start thinking about who I'm going to add to the beginning my collection.....

Also got some pajama pants.

I feel rude not mentioning this in my first post, but my characters got so many duplicating gifts. So that was pretty sweet.
