What did you BUY today?

So provided none of them cancel at the last minute (there's already been a guest cancellation) I'll be meeting two voice acting legends at Scotland Comic Con in October!
Actually looking at my signed picture collection I was wondering who in it was involved in Transformers. I can name a few such as Jeffrey Combs who was Ratchet in Transformers Prime, Ron Perlman who's gonna be in the next movie, Tara Strong who was Sari in Transformers Animated (she also voiced Teletran 1 and both Daniel and Carly in said show) and Phil LaMarr who voiced Jazz in Transformers Animated

Had a look at your channel and saw the Ryuko Matoi figure. I've been looking at figures of her on eBay for ages, but the official ones were really expensive and the cheap ones were Chinese knock-offs. Eventually I stopped and then they sneaked this one out! Mostly sold out in UK stores, but found one on eBay for £40. Seller has 100% positive reviews so hopefully legit.

Wow, that's a pretty nice figure for £40 - I am not a fan of Kill La Kill at all, and I don't collect figures (except for one single 18+ figure I purchased last December, arriving in 2023), but I do look at them online quite often. I've found that I am extremely critical of the quality of the face, which would be my primary criteria affecting if I were to purchase one - and that figure looks great. Too many figures have faces that look really off from the anime character, or they look too plasticy or cartoony or the facial features look too generic, and that completely nullifies my interest in the overall figure for me.

It should be legit! I'm pretty sure that figure has no bootlegs and that's around the price it should be available at. These Pop Up Parades are really nice and accessible. Glad I could help at all, enjoy the figure!
 
There's a sale on some 3DS games on the eShop which are definitely worth buying as they're only around £3.00 to £5.00. I bought Persona Q, Devil Survivor 2 and Soul Hackers. Other notable games in the sale are a bunch of Etrian Odyssey games, Culdcept and Stella Glow which I do also want but not as high a priority. Would like to own these all physical at some point but with the prices they are, I don't know when that'll be, if ever.
 
Even a 3060 8 gig for about US$369 would be way overkill for me since I don't game, plus I only have a PCIE 3.0 motherboard right now. A 3060 12 gig is about $399 here. That's about the max I would want to spend on a video card.

Oh, ok, I think I get it now.... ;)

All silliness aside, my mom has those scented jar-type candles sitting all over my house, she likes to have them lit, especially right before company comes over - I guess she thinks my house smells bad otherwise, lol. hmm, maybe I better go take a shower.... 😜

A set of 3 Really Useful 9L storage boxes (which I managed to get on the day my local Argos was to close for good as Sainsbury's has been closing all the big Argos stores and shoehorning them into the larger Sainsbury's stores).
