Some stuff and birthday stuff I got

 

Mystery Gift

Been a while since I wrote one of these so I thought it might be a good time to write one of these. Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes.

Here is what I got :

Stuff I got

That is Deathstroke from the Arrow tv show and is it awesome. He comes with alot of accesories, did I mention he is awesome? He was actually from a 2 pack that comes with Arrow, my little brother got Arrow. The pack was almost 60 bucks, so I pitched in for it. These are DC Direct figures, they are pricey but the quality is really good, they are like statues in a way but wih articulation.

Next up is Total Heroes Batman from the new line of toys from Mattel. I was sad when Mattel axed the DC Universe Classics toys but there is something I like about the Total Heroes line. The figures have a cartoony stylized look to them. The Batman was pretty nice, he comes with a grapnel gun and 2 batarangs. He even has a cloth cape. It was 10 bucks, but I got it at Toys R Us so it was around 13 bucks.

The red guy is First Edition Cliffjumper from Transformers Prime. The First Edition toys are pretty expensive now, finding one on Amazon will cost about 20-30 bucks, which is double of what they cost. Granted I didn't pay that much for it, I actually found it at Toys R Us for 16 bucks, so it was around 18-19 bucks.

Now Burnout Paradise, the one elusive game on my PS3 list of games I still need to try, was a birthday present from my 2 bros. That was a surprise from them. I am having a blast with it, I'm trying to go for the platinum trophy, so I need help on that. If you have the game on PS3, help me out on that. Not pictured 100 bucks from my folks as a bday present from them.

Last thing I have here that is snoopingas usual is the Final Fantasy HD Remake thing. It's the limited edition. I haven't played too much of the game but I'm enjoying it so far. I've been keeping it a secret for now, so when I played on PSN, it wouldn't show up.  I technically didn't pay for it, and it wasn't a gift either. I got it for free.

I also changed my avatar on PSN. I've had my PS3 since 2010 and the first time I changed it was in 2013. I changed it again for my birthday and like it. I also managed to get the platinum trophy for Transformers: Fall of Cybetron. That link will take you to my PSN profile thingy that's on my page. I had some help with the online stuff but glad I finally have it. Now I'm ready for Rise of the Darkspark.

Overall this month has been good to me, I've actually been pretty happy this month. It's actually a while since I've felt this happy, I haven't felt that way in a very long time. All I know is that this is year is my year, it's the year I'm seeing good changes for me and I'm glad for that.

So here is the total of cost for the stuff I got: Deathstroke = 25 + TH Batman = 10 + TFP Cliffjumper = 16  PSN Avatars x5 = 2.45 = 53.45 bucks 65 with taxes. 105 bucks if I had paid for FF HD.

So what have you been up to? Thanks for reading and later.

Didn't know you got FFX HD. I'm liking it a lot on Vita and I normally don't really care for FF games. Glad you had a good birthday man.

I had it since launch week actually. I haven't played too much butI'm playing it in short bursts but I'm enjoying it. I never tried a FF game so thought it was a good time to do so. And I had a blast so thanks.

It's been a good year for me too, way better than last year thus far. Happy belated!

Cool figures and games.

everyone is playing FFX.  I'm glad about that because maybe we'll see more traditional RPG's and HD remakes maybe of XII and earlier games.
