Okay, we postulated about what we might get for Christmas, but what did you actually get? Post it here, with pics if possible. Here's mine:  The AFB Christmas Stash ended up being: The DC Direct Cover Girls of the DCU Catwoman Statue, DC’s Absolute Justice, the DC Direct History of the DC Universe Series 3, Marvel Select Daredevil figure and the Marvel / Kotobukiya Rogue Bishoujo PVC Statue. Yummy! |

I got drunk and scored a restraining order for X-Mas.....nah, just kidding.....they let me off with a warning. Heh! I did very well including DCUC figs, scoring Series 1, 4 and 6. Also got the 13" Black Canary which is nicer in person. Oh, and somehow Mrs 'shake worked out I didn't have the Vixen minibust!  Best of all I have a ticket to UFC-110! yeehaw! Now officially the fourth most popular sport in America (displacing ice hockey) |

Nice one FMS. I really like the 13" Black Canary. The headsculpts are excellent. If only they could have applied a little of that to Wonder Woman!!
And pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is UFC-110?

Yeah, the alternate BC 'screaming' head is very cool. UFC is the "Ultimate Fighting Championship" and event 110 will be, for the first time, held in Sydney in Feb, 2010. To some it's the perfect blend of wrestling, striking (muay thai and boxing) and grappling (ju-jitsu)......and of course to others it's grown sweaty men rubbing themselves on each other |

I scored Spider-man Sinister Six, The Origins of Generation X (essentially Phalanx Covenant and issue 1 of Gen X), Lego Batman for Wii, and Dead Rising Chop till you Drop for Wii amongst other things. I also got Batman and Son, and Thunderbolts Faith in Monsters off my brother which he otherwise would have eBayed.

Sticking with the one buck is just not going to work for this line, since they made it so bulky. At this stage I don't plan on opening Superman or Plas because I just can't see myself wanting to display them. Blurgh. |

I didn't take a picture of the lot... commentaries will be coming on my blog, but I got JLU Amanda Waller and Super Friends Tri-packs, The Ugly Evil Bird from the Dark Crystal (Yey my Freaky girlfriend!), a Captain Caveman limited figure from Funko Toys (Yey Freaky girlfriend again!), two vinyl designer toys from the artsy sister and two DCD World of Warcraft figures from the premium series, chosen by girlfriend and sister and financed by Freaky parents.
And no socks in sight...
A good X-mas!

Bummer! He's someone I want covered in DCUC. I don't think you'll have to wait long, however the Justice Plastic Man is perfect. Worth scrounging up if you can find him. One of my face DCD figures. I suspect Mattel will do a good job with him though. |

I have the Justice fig and he is awesome, but I want to avoid mixing and matching.....except for the DCUC Lobo. That's just a fail! |

Pretty much got what I thought I was getting as noted in the other thread...  Got a few of the new Hallmark ornaments. Can always count on my Mom and Aunt getting some of those -  |
