What Are You Getting Over The Holiday's?

As for me..Santa is bring me some of the new 2006 stuff. I also ask Santa for the new plane so I can make a set review to LAML and NLN. I'm also getting a $100 watch and a MP3 player. I ask my grandmother for two 50th anniversary buckets.

I hope I get everything on my list.

A new bag and money. That is about all I need. I tend to do the LEGO buyings myself, since my folks don't think that I am *that* serious in the LEGO.. After all, I am 18 and adult

i m probably just gonna use my dad's credit card to buy some cc minifigs off of ebay if i can find a good reasonable price on them! ;D

I asked for NHL 2004, some History books, Hockey Cards, and some mitts to keep me warm when I'm spraying my ice rink.

I of course always get $50 from my Grand Parents every Christmas. This year, I got it a week early. That money will be spent on LEGO, unless I manege to sway my parents minds to let me get a GameCube.

Good topic steve, I's about to ask the same. +8 bricks

I'm getting KK2 fortress and a few 2006 sets as they come.

Incidently, I haven't asked for anything really...

I would speculate that I may get 7249, since I've been wanting it a while and my mom knows it. Hmm, I'd also like LEGO to send me my replacement pneumatic hose so I can get my technic crane up and running again. That'd be cool..

I know I'll get money and a box of some sort of chocolates from my grandparents too, since I always do. I'd also guess that I'll get some grey/brown/dark grey old coloured packets from my parents...I have on almost every birthday or Christmas since they've been out.

There's also a chance I may get some Megadeth CD's...that'd be awesome. Especially if it was the remaster box set. I'd also love a t-shirt...preferable the Cryptic Writings styled one...though a classic Rust In Peace one would be hot too. That's doubtful though.


But, realistically I have no idea what I'm going to get, outside the people who always give the same; money. I think it sorta defeats the purpose if you already know what you're going to get. I could easily go on with things that I'd like, but I doubt anyone even knows I want them. Lots are specific parts and stuff too...a few old style turntables would be perfect.

I don't know. I'm not expecting much, since I failed a class, spent way too much money from my checking account, and my parents found out I spilled soda over my Powerbook when classes started.

It sure as hell won't be something to distract me from schoolwork

[Sz_2cool4u2b]

Not much, but I do hope to get a new 2006 set or two, and maybe Battlefront 2 for my Xbox.

The likelyhood of me getting a 360 is 1/1000, but an iPod would sure be a nice thing to see under the tree...

So far, for christmas, I've bought myself:

-Tamiya - 1/35 Panzer IV (suitable alternative for WH40K models... but not to be used in 40k games )

-Call of Duty - Finest Hour (PS2)

-ic! Berlin eyeglasses (Ok, so I got them before thanksgiving, but they're german! How can that not count for christmas!? Screwless design = innovation!)



I'm thinking of getting either the Nostromo Speedpad 52 (for gaming on my mac and PC) or a graphics card for my computer today. My Mobo was the last of a dying breed - it's just over 2 years old, has normal PCI, AGP (4X) and PC2700 RAM ports. New mobos have stuff like PCI Express, AGP 8X, PC3BILLION and stuff that makes me cry. So, since I highly doubt anything better is coming out for AGP 4X or PCI.... I'm getting a frickin' graphics card.

[CrustaceanFreak]

I hvae no idea what I'm going to get either, except for a Star Wars Ultimate PEZ Collection thingy (Which I caugt sight of in the trunk of the car. ) I do know my parents know that I want a case of BAWLS Energy Drink and Crimson Skies, and any kind of MP3 player. I reckon I'll probably be getting mostly gift cards, an probably some money.

But the best part is that we'll be in San Diego on my birthday (Which is 3 days after Christmas). That is a good enough reason to get cash AND go to LEGOLand.

I heart holidays.

I got my graphics card - ATI Radeon 9250 Xtasy 128 MB DDR. It was $79.99 but I had a $25 gift card for Best Buy. I installed it, played a couple hours of Enemy Territory - noticable improvement. I don't get any of the weird flashing walls and stuff.

Makes it alot easier to snipe the sorry enemy from a long distance. I had 3 great snipes today, one after the other, but I needed 3 bullets to take each enemy down. Bang-hit - the guy starts running, bang-hit, bang-DEAD! Move over a bit, get the next enemy in sight, Bang, bang, bang, dead. Third guy was another sniper, but he made the mistake of standing up to look through binoculars to find me- Bang-hit, he dives... I see the top of his helmet - Bang, hit. Then he tries to pop up in a different place, and I get him. I saw yet another sniper, but he had been preparing for me so I had no idea where he was shooting from, and I couldn't get to cover.
