Recent Hauls 3: The quest for more stuff

[Squigsquasher]

I got a bunch of nice stuff for Christmas, including a plush Facehugger, a robot waifu and a whole bunch of edibles.

However, that's not what I'm here to tell you about. Because on this fine day, in my local comic shop I picked up the entire Evangelion series (I think) for the fairly reasonable sum of £45, which didn't seem too bad considering I've seen the DVD set sold for £500 on the secondary market before. It wasn't the Platinum collection or Blu-Ray set or anything (it was the old ADV individual volumes) but considering I got all 8 volumes + the DCs of 24-26 for £5 a box, I think I did pretty well. I've got the Blu-Ray rips (with awful, awful subtitles) on my PC anyway, but there's something so very satisfying about having the physical release. I might be missing the first set of DC eps, but they didn't have them in the store, and I have the entire series proper on DVD so that's something. I'll probably buy the blu-ray set if it ever comes out over here for a sensible price, but for now I'm happy.

I also picked up both halves of Oban: Star Racers, which was a childhood favourite of mine and a steal at £10 for the whole series.

I got a pretty rad (and clearly unlicensed) poster print of [ https://tinyurl.com/yd8neet6 ] from my city's state fair yesterday at one of the many weeaboo vendors' stands indoors. It was the only Eva merch I could find aside from those damn figures or wall scrolls of the girls in their plug suits. I also picked up https://tinyurl.com/y9whosq3 and https://tinyurl.com/y8muewkd , if I can't find a new copy of Samus Returns Special Edition, I'll support this damn franchise in other ways.

What's the size on that? It seems that 27x40s simply don't exist.

I got the new Yugioh Legendary Hero Decks. Comes with a Destiny HERO deck, a Phantom Knight deck, and a Nordic deck. Although I only bought it for the Destiny HERO's so now I can work on making a Thunder Dragon deck from the Soul Fusion booster set coming out in two days.
