I got the ultimate piece of gaming tat delivered earlier...
It came with Far Cry 6, which I've bought for my dad for Xmas. Which I didn’t realise and it took me a moment to work out what it was when it dropped out of the parcel.
@RogerRoger haha yes it was indeed. It's currently sitting on my shelf unbuilt. I should have bought two really then I would feel less bad about building this one 😂. Waiting to see if my brother buys me another one for my birthday... I bought him a Seinfeld Lego for Christmas so he may return the favour!
Mine came in a completely mashed up parcel actually. Luckily the Lego box itself was ok though.
Megabucks! I'm trying to remember if I told you the story about my old maths teacher at school or if you saying Megabucks is pure coincidence 😅
I bought some tat today, some tat from Tesco. I don't normally buy tat and I'm in the slow painful process of getting rid of a lot of tat. But I couldn't help myself. This tat is just right for me:
I will take it out the packet and I will find somewhere to display it.
Mighty was always my favourite of the Chaotix Crew when I was a kid. I was always peeved by his absence in later Sonic games. I remember reading a lot of rumours as a teenager that his absence from Sonic Heroes was due to the original creator of Mighty leaving Sega and taking the copyright with him. No idea if that was true.
I know he has had a welcome resurgence in recent years due to an appearance in Sonic Mania Plus which is probably why he has an action figure available to buy in Tesco of all places
Nice find mate. Yes, the tat can build up quite quickly! I've had to come up with a plan to sell off a load of board game expansions and miniatures that aren't likely to be used. Got rid of 6 boxes so far. So much easier with video games where you can just trade them in.
@RogerRoger cheers! I actually saw a few more that were cheaper in Sainsbury's but different characters. They looked a bit neon for some reason though, sonic and knuckles had pink noses 🤷♂️
Mighty is a bit top heavy so a bit hard to stand up!
Well Team Rose is nothing to sniff at really and it makes more sense having Big and Cream in there after their appearances in Adventure and Advance respectively.
I am quite fond of Rouge the Bat actually too, maybe Mighty could have replaced the robot in that team with Shadow and Rouge instead!
I need to replay Sonic Heroes at some point. I don't think I was that into it when it came out but retrospectively, it's something that takes my fancy. Just because I love the wider cast of Sonic whether it's classic, modern or even the UK comics
@LieutenantFatman cheers bud! Board games are such space hoggers! My mates getting rid of quite a few too. I've offered to take one off his hands at least.
I'm not sure what his miniature status is these days. I seem to remember him having a painting table. I have never played a game at his that requires paintable miniatures though
Best of luck with your clearout. I sold 3 amiibos the other day. I shed a tear for Dr. Mario, Shulk and some other one that I forget now 😅
@RogerRoger haha I'm sure your shadow just looks like a real hedgehog!!
I sort of thought, as I was dismissing the robot, that I sort of half remembered him having some heart wrenching storyline about what it is to be alive etc. Whether that's true or not I don't know because I don't remember it that well 😅. I felt a bit bad about the idea of ditching him in favour of Mighty. Having said that, I think my teenage brain just found his name too long to say and my teenage prejudice could never allow me to like a Badnik! 😅 (jk of course!)
I have the GameCube version from when I was a teenager actually. I'm wondering if there is some modern port/BC version like there was for SA1&2 now though. I think the PS2 version is on the PS3 store. I might look up to see if there is a BC version on Xbox (edit: there isn't lol)
@MightyDemon82 I ordered one too but looks like I should be getting it in 3 weeks (another shipment, I guess). I haven't bought any LEGO in literal decades, lol.
LEGO Tallneck update - I cancelled my order because I found another place that could get me one sooner and cheaper. It was already dispatched and should be arriving on Monday.
I will not be taking it out of the box at this time because I'm moving to a new apartment soonish I'll consider building it there!
@Voltan I had an email saying mine is coming Monday too. Ordered it from Lego as soon as it launched but went with the slightly slower free delivery.
Not sure if I’ll be building mine yet.
