Alright, new update. This is going to be one of my more expensive updates since there are a bit of pricey items for this one.

Starting off with Shadow of the Colossus. I finally received the first and third colossi from Prime1. Went for the EX versions that carried the little accompanying statue.





And, here are all the SoTC statues that I own.



I finally broke down and bought the Last of Us Part II Ellie Edition. Was pleasantly surprised at the going rate for this version. Thought I would be taking an arm and a leg to get this one and I know about the backlash people have for the game itself but I still figured with the diehard Naughty Dog fans and the collectors that I figured this would at least be double in price. This one is all minty and nice. Even came in it's original shipping box that has the orange do not open until stickers.





Okay, now on to Halo. Of course I bought Halo Infinite and received the steelbook as a preorder bonus. I also somehow realized recently that Microsoft released a bundled version of Halo:CE and Halo Reach called Halo Origins Bundle, so I had to snatch that up as well. Had to wait a while as the only versions I could find either had a complete mess of a slipcover or were absurdly overpriced.



I also bought the Art of Halo Infinite Deluxe Edition. Pretty nice cover with a slight gloss sheen in some areas.



And, of course, how could Microsoft not release PVC statues for the release and try to get as much as they can out of the franchise. So, I had to get the grapplehook versions in both the Orange/Red and Blue energy sword version. The first one included as well just to complete the look.



I originally bought these Cable Guy Halo versions to hold the new controllers I had but then realized that the twin pack with Master Chief and Cortana were from the original CE version whereas the solo Master Chief version was from Halo Infinite. So, I thought about buying doubles but with the rising prices of these, I decided to just keep them in the packaging. Sorry for the photo here as I was trying to get the light to cooperate so you could see the difference.



Never owned any Figpins but apparently there are different IPs that they make these in. So, I decided to buy the Halo ones. I've seen the regular ones but didn't realize that they made the same Master Chief version in XL format. They are pretty nice and hefty if you were to hold them. I shake my head just looking at the XL one, lol.



And, the pièce de résistance of this update is the Xbox Series X Halo Infinite edition along with the Halo Infinite Elite Series 2 controller. I'm currently trying to figure out how I'm going to display all of the console and statues of Halo together. When I finish, I'll be sure to give you guys an update.

Such sacrifices you make for your friends. I don't know if you want to taint your Naughty Dog collection with my unorganized mess, lol.

I appreciate the response. It's always good to know people like seeing me update around here.

Thank you! If you asked me 5 years ago that they'd make this many SotC statues, I wouldn't have believed you. Always thought this franchise was too niche for most people.

I've never bought from SecretCompass but I've always been aware of the company. I assume you've asked them for updates. I wouldn't be surprised if the shipping boats are having trouble getting your statue docked. I ordered mine directly from Prime1 and even there that was a huge waiting game. I believe it took me 3-4 months for my statue to arrive after I received the tracking number.

I always assumed you bought the third colossus and now I know why you haven't done a video on it, lol. Good luck to you. It's a wonderful statue. I thought the one Playstation sold on their website was good, but this one blows that out of the water. No offense to Gary Barth as I still appreciate the one he created.

Yeah, I asked for updates in september I believe, back then they said to wait 60 - 90 days. Oh well, I know shipping containers are a mess to get a hold of nowadays.
I just hope it doesn't get cancelled, since it is sold-out everywhere....and as you said it is super niche, so they only made 350 total!

I'm already having a lot of trouble with Toy Origin in Canada, ordered a Threezero hunter from them which hasen't shipped yet. I'm passed the paypal ''warranty'' and hearing lots of negative feedback about them lately I think I lost my money.....

So, this update is less video game and more memorabilia and vinyl. I hope you like the update all the same.

Up first is a re-release of the Xbox Series X Mini Fridge. The original release was a Target exclusive but this was purchased from the distributer themselves. A tad more expensive but worth it compared to the resellers. Also, as you can see is an oversized 10" Master Chief Halo Pop! figure and a regular sized Grunt vinyl. I got the Grunt because, well, Grunt and he was on clearance, lol.



Next up is the Bioshock Plasmid pins that I never got around to purchasing when they were first released. I figured I had more time. You can see the Deluxe Plasmid Pin Set next to the Deluxe Vigor Bronze Pin Set to kind of give you an idea of both of them next to each other. I do like the plush pin case and descriptive legend on the underside of the top portion.



Next, we have the Diablo purchases. From left to right we have the NECA Diablo 3 Tyrael Replica El'Druin Sword of Justice, the Diablo Soulstone Power Bank, Blizzcon Exclusive 2016 20th Anniversary Commemorative Coin, Funko Pop! Tyrael GameStop Insider Club Exclusive, and Diablo II: Resurrected Dark Wanderer GameStop Exclusive Funko Pop!



And, what I'm most excited for are the second version of the Castle Crashers vinyl figures. Everything from the Necromancer vinyl back have been previously purchased and you can find them in one of my previous updates, except for the Bitey Bat plush hat.

The order of the figures from left to right are as follows: Bear, Barbarian, Blue Knight, Green Knight, Pink Knight, Red Knight, Orange Knight, and Skeleton. Below that are the character magnets and the Mini Patch Sets labeled in the following configuration: Green, Red, Yellow, Peach, and Blue.



I promise to add some video games in my next update.
Thanks for stopping by.

Alright, it's been a while since I've updated as I haven't been buying much lately but I do have some items that I'm glad I finally purchased since I never got them when they first released.

To start, for the actual games purchased, I bought the boxed version of Radiant Historia. I know, I know. This might give you déjà vu but I didn't have the complete edition with the Music Soundtrack included. It bothered me that I didn't have this one when I knew it existed.



Also, here is the TMNT The Cowabunga Collection for the Xbox.



Next are some Pinny Arcade Pins for Jak and Dexter, TLoU, Diablo, and Halo.



I just couldn't pass up some vinyl figures for JP Movie Poster version, TLoU's Clicker, and Cute but Deadly's Necromancer.



Speaking of figures, or at least how I'm gonna be using them are the Cable Guys Borderlands for the Claptrap and Psycho Bandit.




So, apparently, Cable Guys made Halo versions. Nothing new there. What I didn't know was how many different variants they made of the IP. I present to you the versions I am currently aware of.





I also picked up a little preorder for Halo Infinite in a dog tag necklace.



I never intended to get these but once I was able to get the keyboard and mouse on clearance, I decided to get the headphones and mousepad to complete the set.



Alright, these next items I am absolutely ecstatic to get.

First, we have the three Seagate variants of the Halo portable HDDs in the 2TB for the Halo Wars 2 version and the bigger 5TB for the Master Chief versions in new condition.





I finally have the Weta Master Chief's Mark VI Spartan Helmet 1/4 scale.



And last, but not least, is my first Nintendo Switch Diablo Eternal Collection variant along with the Quest for Treasure pamphlet to announce the release of the console.





I do have some statues that I intend to showcase but I'm in the middle of reorganization so, hopefully, I'll have something to show you guys something soon.
