Here's a lazy Sunday update.
Some nice pieces added to my AC collection, and a few other nice items.

Fallout New Vegas All Roads lithograph. Quite a nice piece in person. So nice, that I'm considering having it framed.

Fallout Helping Hand giclee:

I attended the Xbox One tour event here in Chicago. Major Nelson was there, and I had him sign my Xbox display piece. He was super cool, and didn't mind signing it at all. He was quite impressed that I had the sign, in fact.

Ryo statue, Exclusive edition with Phoenix Mirror base:

An excellent piece of Shenmue memorabilia. Glad I was able to order it before it sold out!

And now for the AC items!

Promo ACII long sleeve hooded shirt:

AC tin with contents:

Promo AC IV journal:

I think this was a competition prize only, but I could be wrong.

Finally, we have the excellent AC IV pocket watch:

The second I saw pictures of the pocket watch, I absolutely fell in love with it.
After a bit of searching, I was able to get my hands on one at a reasonable price; well, it was a reasonable price when compared to what others have sold for!
I've heard that this was a pre-order bonus at some Czech retail stores, but I really have not seen very many of the watches. It makes me wonder if this watch was ever actually handed out as a pre-order bonus. I'm not entirely sure, but I'm thinking there's a chance that this is a rare piece. I know that it was for sure handed out to at least one person via contest. I really don't know if they handed these out via the Ace of Spades game.

At any rate, I'm super excited to add this watch to my little AC collection.

As always, thank you my friends, for taking a few minutes to check in!

Take care everyone.

MortalMonday · #**549** 11-04-2013, 08:19 PM

One more AC update coming later today hopefully!

MortalMonday · #**550** 11-04-2013, 11:14 PM

Edit: Sorry if the pictures are showing up sideways. Photobucket is buggy as all get up!

Here it is:

This is a promo kit, exclusive to Gamestop; I'm not sure if it was only available at USA Gamestop stores though. I'm also not sure if every single store got one of these kits. I haven't seen, but a handful of these in the wild. Maybe it was only sent to top performing stores?

This was not a retail sale piece at all. It was intended for use by store employees only.
It included originally a bunch of tattoo sleeves, which employees could wear in-store. It also includes an info sheet, and an oversize flag. It all comes housed in the brown box.

I'm honesty not sure if anything else was included originally in the kit, but I'm thinking that there was nothing else included.

I think the flag might be made of canvas, but I'm not sure. Whatever the material, it's certainly sturdy. I'll measure the flag later, but again, it appears to be pretty large. The logo on the flag appears to be screen-printed, as opposed to embroidered.

That's all for now. Hope you all liked that piece.
