BSI tends to be the house brand for local hobby shops. They just put their name on the label. It's OK & will work but I find Zapagap & Gorilla to be a superior brands.

Ah.

 

I have used Zapagap and Gorilla before. This was just a very reasonable price and an add-on to my Amazon order.

I seem to have acquired a new job! :)

Congrats!

 

Definitely congrats!! What are you getting yourself in celebration?

 

The new Batman Lego set for Penguin's snazzy car. I'm a big fan of Lego bricks, and I'm breathlessly awaiting the new movie.

The gel type is pretty good, label is purple...

The instant cure is good as well...

Acquired: Confirmation that my shoulder is just as jacked up as we all knew it was prior to the latest MRI. But documentation is important when you're retiring.

 

Also, my Zygons, Silence, and Judoon that I ordered, from Warlord Games, just before Xmas came in, and I ordered Black Sun's new 54mm Hawk Knight that I've been waiting for (since I saw the sculpt about a month ago).

 

 

 

ETA: Also my Xmas gift from SWMBO arrived: Mouse Guard books. Well, technically it was a $100 Big, South American River gift card, but I spent it on most of the Mouse Guard Graphic Novels, in hardcover. I think I only need two to complete the collection, now.

 

Are Black Suns minis limited edition?

 

I've been waiting for the Hawk Knight too, but it's going to be a few months before my hobby budget recovers from the big Kingdom Death shaped hole in it.

Quite true. My uncle told the army that he didn't hear quite as well as he used to when he got out, and 30 years later they paid for his hearing aids. My dad didn't so it is merely coincidence that his partial hearing loss is the same frequency range as the old deck gun.

Found some foam core on sale on Amazon. I have thirty black 30"x40" sheets and a cutter headed my way for around $25. The deal is worth looking up if you have a need for foamcore. Around $5 for ten sheets is a great deal.

I plan to make some board game inserts and mini storage organization.

I have ordered two packs myself. Amazon notification shows the first one coming this weekend and the second one is still a week's out.

Wait, what? Mine is listed as March...

I got notice today that these should show up Friday. That is much sooner than March.

Some are. This one isn't listed as a limited run, though.

Yay!

Got an Alphasmart 3000 from eBay.  

Unfortunately, though, it seems to have a later FirmWare on it.

(On early versions, if your calculation resulted in '42' in the calulator app, you got a message about the answer to the ultimate question. )

 Acquired:

 

 Toro 518 ZE electric-start gas-powered snowblower

 

It's a small one, but then I didn't even particularly need a snowblower - the driveway's only two cars wide and about thirty feet long. But, my father likes his toys, and it's a pain to keep loading the big blower into the truck and drag it back and forth between his girlfriend's place and this house... So he bought this one to keep over here. And thus I now have a snowblower.

 

So now doing the driveway has been cut down from half an hour of shoveling to about fifteen minutes of pushing the blower, and I'll be able to grow even fatter and lazier during the winter...

I just placed an order for the Lamentations of the Flame Princess Free RPG Day 2017 supplement "Vaginas Are Magical"

 

Why did I pay to order a free book? Because it's a 48 page hard backed book, because LotFP consistently produces some of the best D&D material out there both in terms of content and in terms of the physical product itself. Plus my order helps to make sure that enough copies get produced and shipped out so that others can experience the joy that is Free RPG Day.

 

Also, I'm getting a signed copy. Cause why not?

 

Finally, the Euro is practically at a 1:1 exchange rate with the dollar right now. Crazy... My 30 euro order came out to $32 and some change.
