swordchucks...yo
and after a long absence...i'm finally back with an update...not that anyone cares what happens in my life, but i'm gonna continue anyway..
its a couple of weeks left to the exams..i haven't had much time to update things...but they aren't related in any way...
rather, i've been expanding my collection of classic games..buying old systems and adding to my personal library...to summarize, here's an updated list on what i've acquired
- NES (its frickin' working!)
- Sega megadrive 1
- Super Nintendo (to replace my defunct Super famicom)
- 20+ saturn games (pocket fighters...dragonforce..)
- 20+ megadrive games (super shinobi...golden axe..)
- a few gameboy advance games (guardian heroes...advance wars...)
- Final Fantasy III (at $300 its a steal!)
- Legend of Zelda
- Mario Kart
- Super mario RPG
- Chrono Trigger
....just to name some of the more note-worthy ones...all bought online from yahoo auctions...
currently enlisting desmond to help me purchase stuff from ebay...will resell them back home to those hardcore collectors...and with FF and Chrono Trigger going at a market rate of around 300+...i'm gonna make a killing if the ebay bids are successful and the shipping doesn't fuck up!
next i've taken to collecting the transformers binaltechs from takara...bought the entire collection from a seller on yahoo auctions, currently 11 models on the market...
- bluestreak subaru wrc (2 versions)
- lambor dodge viper
- hound jeep wrangler
- silver streak subaru wrx
- dead end dodge viper
- tracks corvette (yellow)
- blue streak wrc 2004 (2 versions)
- meister mazda rx-8 (2 versions; white/red)
crazy shit eh? all modelled after real vehicles but are capable of transforming..! kewl shit!
will continue adding to the binaltech series as new versions hit the market...currently considering collecting the G1 gestalts..but those are really hardcore stuff...going at hundreds per piece...
personal fave....DEVASTATOR!!
adding all that stuff to my collections landed me with a $1600 burn in my pocket...no i didn't add an extra zero....its ONE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED...in a span of 2 weeks....and if my ebay venture is successful...add another 500+ to that....
but eugene...why the fuck spend all that dough?? you fucking crazy??
yeah...maybe...i think i'm nuts occasionally too...but majority of that dough went into transformers and final fantasy...2 series of toys/games that i'll sell my ass for...
secondly...with my celica dreams postponed indefinitely...i figure spending 1/70 the cost of a celica isn't that big a deal...consider it consolation to myself...=P
hopefully when i've got extra time..and find a way to upload pics on blogspot WITHOUT having to d/l their stupid photo uploader...i'll add some pics of all my 'investments'....some are truly rare shit...
GOT SOMETHING TO SAY??
