Hello Everyone,
Time for the bi-monthly update and first of the year from me for you guys! Hope you enjoy.
First, we have a little conglomeration of non-themed item acquisitions. From left to right and back to front, I purchased the Far Cry 4 Strategy Guide as I am still completing my CE guides of the 7th generation. Next is the No Man's Sky Explorer's Edition with the die-cast ship, pin, space pen and journal. Over to the right is The Legend of Zelda: Art & Artifacts LE book. And in the front we have a little Pop! Borderland's Cl4p-Tp and Half-Life Gravity Gun keychains. Last but not least is the little Chibiterasu statue from Loot Crate.
Next, we have a little continuation from the Diablo line. From left to right we have a little Cute but Deadly series 2 Barbarian figure. Next to him is the Demonic Tyrael from the Pop! line exclusive to the SDCC 2015 and the Whimsyshire Treasure Goblin from the SDCC 2014 convention. And to round out the goblins, we have the Coin Bank with sound and the two variants from the Cute but Deadly line series two.
To another series I am collecting for, we have the Bioshock series. I have been able to acquire some rare gems here thanks in part to 0329liuken. The new Big Daddy plush is shown here on the far left along with the huge Bioshock Infinite promotional blimp in the back. The Mind in Revolt and Breaking the Mold Developer's Edition books are on the left-bottom and middle. I had to re-buy the shot glasses as the first set I received were damaged in shipping. I figured I would use the remaining ones that were not broken and keep these in the packaging. The biggest acquires, from 0329liuken, are the Bioshock Infinite and Bioshock: The Collection Press Kits. Very happy to have gotten these. Thanks again, Ken.
Here is a closer look at them. I would've done more shots but I'm sure you guys have seen these before and from the other members here. Just a couple quick shots for you though.
And now, the other money draining IP I collect for is my ever increasing Halo line. First off we have all of McFarlane's Halo 3 Legendary statues and their variants for both the Arbiter and Master Chief and Flood. In front, we have more of Loot Crate's Screen Shots figures and Mister Chief Carabiner Plush.
Also to follow up McFarlane's statues is his Halo 3 Helmet Collection. I think I am missing two more from wave 2 but I'm not exactly sure. There have been so many that look like duplicates with different colors - honestly, it's hard to keep up. The only one I have that is not listed on the back is the bottom-right red set. Don't know what that one belongs to. Hopefully, I will have the rest of them prior to my next update.
And, as always, statues are usually the pinnacle of most people's collections. I have completed my Dead Space statue collection (or until someone decides to take up the franchise) with both the Sideshow Isaac Clarke's Dead Space and Kotobukiya's Isaac Clarke Dead Space 3. Right in the middle is the Gaming Head's Shrine of Julianos Exclusive from their Skyrim line. I am very impressed with all three statues and am very pleased to have them.
Thank you guys for taking the time to go through another update with me and, as always, I hope you guys enjoy my updates. Cheers!
