Nicodemus:

So with the main event of this holiday season over what kind of loot did everyone rake in?

The main things I got were an iPod Touch, loads of money for new clothes some Werner Klocke elves the FFG Death Angle SH Card game, and a subscription to White Dwarf (with the bonus Dwarf Engineer)… oh, and I bought myself the Skaven army book, and the new plastic Daemon Prince for a conversion :wink:

Obsidian
I'd stay away from those smelly women ;)

I got a nice camp stove, and technically the Droid phone I got a couple of months ago was for xmas too. Nothing gaming related at all unless you count the Rubicks Cube - I want to work out how to solve it myself, none of those guides.

I never realised how much self-assembly there was with a Hotwheels garage (for my 2-year-old, although it is pretty awesome)

Willmark:

Spent most of Christmas assembling Barbie toys for my daughter. Toys for my son weren’t so bad.

Barbie dolls need assembly?

Anyways, I got a nice amount of money, which I now need to decide how to spend…

Grimstonefire:

Bit of a hobby nerd I’m afraid.

My slaves managed to acquire the Horus Heresy art book thing, a doomwheel and Be’lakor.

Minos:

I had to assembly Playmobil dungeon with dragon and bolt thrower : first step to get my sons into the hobby, gniark gniark ! :~

ingtar_shinowa:

My wife got me Cobra S2 5 wood and 3 wood, I’m really tall and they need to be lengthened, but they officially destroyed my game for 2 and a half rounds of golf until I swore off all the long sticks. I did get MYSELF some new Chaos Dwarf figures to fill out the army I started in 2000. First Warhammer Fantasy figures I bought since '02 at the latest. Damn you guys and this site. In other news my best friend and I are going to get 2000 points of squigs to have Squig Wars.

Red Dead Redemption, Inception DVD and my dad got me a drill with a million grinding/sanding/filing attachments of awesome.

zobo1942:

My kids got lots of toys and were very happy - it’s pretty cool seeing your child run to the Christmas tree exclaiming ‘He came! He came! Santa Claus came!!!’

It’s been a bit of a tough year, so my wife and I passed on gifts for one another - but we went out to the in-laws’ farm and had a gigantic feast and a couple days of relaxation and fun in the snow.

However, I recently discovered ‘pulp’-era gaming (think ‘Indiana Jones’, ‘The Mummy’, ‘Call of Cthulhu’ and other fictionalized 1930s stuff) and am pretty excited about giving that a try… Given my love for all things HP Lovecraft-related and cheesy B&W Scifi movies, it could be a lot of fun… and, as it uses a lot fewer miniatures, a bit easier on my near-non-existent entertainment budget.

snowblizz:

Ork Dreadnaught, and only because I happened to go by the gamestore while shopping for food and I jokingly told my mom we should go in there to buy toys to the kid. I still maintain she dared me.

I was in today again actually to pick up a BfSP set on a discount, 50�,� for the Orc stuff can’t be bad. And there’s some Dwarfs to torture as well I guess.
