    I love Elfman stuff, especially the earlier gear, I have Batman Returns, Scissorhands, Music from a Darkened Theatre, Beetlejuice (had it on vinyl originally, no idea where it went!), Nightmare Before Christmas and Mars Attacks.
    Good glob I used to buy a lot of orchestral soundtracks!

    Absolutely love the ticket table under the glass idea. Must do that myself.

    Picked up a boxed F-Zero for GBA in perfect nick with all the bits at the weekend, looks like it's never been played.

    Ever listen to his band Oingo Boingo?

    If not, pick up the best of album 'Skeletons in the Closet'

    Everyone probably knows their song 'Little Girls' due to the crazy subject matter, but there are lots of great tracks on that album.

    That's my bigger cabinet, the matching desk from Ikea I have actually has a lot more. When it's organised it actually looks pretty cool

    Just picked up Resident Evil Deadly Silence for a fiver in Gamestop. Not too bad.

    In keeping with the tradition of this thread I'll be collecting something rather special in a few hours :D

    So what is it?

    I came across them back in the day, they have a song on the Ghostbusters 2 soundtrack

    and Weird Science.

    So, if you've got a lot of purchases and haven't gone through this thing you're missing out!
    I can't link from here but just Google Nintendo Network Premium and you'll find it.
    Is it only for Wii u or does it include 3DS?

    You should have removed the price tag. €1? That's a real bargain. :p

    Wasn't expecting that! :eek:

    Nice one - where'd you source it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,882 ✭✭✭Steve X2


    Got both of the Star Wars storyboard books today. The prequel $h1te one has been out a while I think but the original movies book only came out recently.
    I've not even opened the new movies book yet.

    Got this today for a ridiculous bargain price, still sealed in the original shipping box too. :)

    Got this on Friday:

    So just Hyrule Historia to get now I think...


    Ah yes your the culprit. I had completely forgotten how badly I wanted these until I saw your post last week. Bank balance just took another hit thanks to you!

    Went way overboard this month, but got quite a few interesting items. I will slap up some picks when they start to trickle in. You know so that I can remind someone else to part with their hard earned cash, pay it forward if you will.

    Dam my favourite/most dangerous thread on boards!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,214 ✭✭✭STG.Otaku


    Good work! :D

    I got Hyrule Historia last week so I think I have all of the hardback editions now? Unless there is one for A Link To The Past?

    Yeah I have the Historia myself, a real thing of beauty. I actually went looking for one for a link to the past but doesn't look like it exists I am afraid.

    I have been after Infinite Space on the DS for a while now.
    But whenever I look online it tends to be pricy, boxed it typically runs at 30/40 or more, with cart only coming in around 20.
    That said the nice guys on the Nintendo forum found one for me for about 18 shipped.
    Anywho...
    I rang around a few Gamestop branches yesterday on spec, just in case someone had a copy, their online Portal suggested they'd never heard of it.
    Lo and behold GS in Blanchardstown had one, they agreed to hold it and I picked it up half an hour ago, in perfect nick and only €4.99!
    I'm pretty pleased with myself now!

    Picked up a carry case for the sfc, worked out at 18.50 with delivery from Japan. Always wanted one, just don't know exactly when I'm going to use it.

    Also have a copy of ICO winging its way over to a Parcel Motel locker.

    Enjoy playing the tutorial, enjoying it, and then realising you haven't a notion what's going on afterwards :pac: (that being my impression of the brief time I spent with Infinite Space - I'm sure there's a great game there if you have the requisite dozens upon dozens of hours!)

    Bugger.

    Still, it was 5 euro and is normally around 30 or 40 so I can't complain too much.

    Don't get me wrong, still well worth owning and a likely rarity and cult classic in years to come. But to get the most out of it you'll need a **** load of time and a willingness to dive into its unforgiving, deep systems!
