How freaking beautiful and amazing is this?! Can't wait! Just got my tickets. 

RIP King T'Challa. He would be proud.

This month stretch might be my worst expense ever for this collection adding in other things.  Two WeET OCs, probably two CM releases, at least one Manta release, the LOTR HDZ, probably other group buys I am forgetting, all the new Bonds from DVDstore.it, an MRI of my knee, and hopefully not knee surgery.  What an absolute crazy month stretch.

 

I told my wife to at least let me write my will before she kills me for LOTR.

Yes, unfortunately (even aside from the hurricane).

 

Today hasn't been too bad but it's supposed to pick up for us tonight. The worst should be over by morning 👍

I hope you, your family, and friends are safe and it goes smoothly.

Morning all.

 

Should I reenact this gif today?

 

Are you in Florida? lol

Are you guys excited for Constantine 2 at all? I freaking loved the first film! So stoked Keanu Reeves is coming back -- he did such a great job with that character. 

I'm a novice premium collector and don't have enough to complete the challenge.  😅

Super late, but my Prestige OC finally came in! It was lost in the mail for a good week and a half. I thought I literally was never going to see it. Lo and behold, it randomly arrived today! Im so thankful. Such a beautiful set. The double lenticular is gorgeous! 
 

Thanks everyone for the positive words! I'm sure today will be better. I'm going to kick Thursday's @$$ 😅

@damships very nice car but how can it be 2024 gen 7???

or is it released in 2024 bear in mind we havent hit 2023 yet?

 

 

basil 👍 

It’s releasing in Spring 2023. That’s typically when next year models come out. They just showcased it yesterday, but it’s still months out.

For all of my fellow car enthusiasts: the 2024 7th Generation Mustang!

Is it Drool Over Scarlett Johansson Day? 
 

I only started collecting premiums early this year. 😅 BUT, I have some that I’m quite fond of, especially when it comes to lenticular depth and transition.

For depth, quality and overall clarity, I have to go with the Manta Lab Tenet Single Lenticular Slip. It’s the cleanest lenticular I’ve seen in-person, and I love the depth with the title and explosion in the background.

For transition, I have to go with the HDZETA The Dark Knight Double Lenticular Slip. The back-side has an incredible transition between Batman/Joker and Batman/Joker covered in Joker vandalism (HAHA, “To Them You’re Just A Freak Like Me”, the Smiley over Batman’s face). This was the edition that got me into collecting! I saw it in a YouTube video and was like “Whoa…how come I don’t have that?!”. 

Wouldn't it be awesome if there was a Live Chat function on here?

This is next level. I need.

 

Someone ironically had posted that box a few months back. It made me want to look into 3D Printing. My brother does it. He said it wouldn’t be too difficult. You’d print it and spray paint it gold pretty much. I’d also keep space for the fifth film though. 😝

I know everyone has there’s already, but mine just arrived. And wow! This is the best non-premium steelbook I’ve seen in a while. Super well done!

Went to see Top Gun: Maverick a second time today, but with my brother and dad. They loved it -- very much a father/son movie. Hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend!

Had to throw this in there too lmao

Yep. I've seen several posts with pictures of damaged copies. Some had theirs mailed in thin paper envelopes 😬

Wow!!! That’s so sad…you’d think they’d package it with care with how much they charged for it.

Suurreee you didn’t…

 

Seriously though, I’m glad that were able to snag one! It also looks like you were one of the lucky ones to have it arrive in good condition. 
 

 

 

Were there a lot of damaged packages for people?

So how many bots did you have to use?

 

None actually 😂 I hopped on right when they announced it would be online. I just got extremely lucky. 🍀

going ask americans what on earth is labor day?

 

obviously some sort of holiday but why?

 

basil 👍

It's a holiday we developed to honor hard-workers. The only stupid thing is it should have been called Double-Labor Day or Triple-Labor Day to get more days off. 

I was able to land a copy of the Firefly Edition for The Last of Us Part I!!! 

Mixed response from me. I really enjoyed the first episode. The second, however, was kind of mediocre. Whenever the harfoots are on screen, I kind of just roll my eyes and want the next scene to come by. Arondir and Bronwyn started off as a little boring, but it's picked up. I really wish the show focused on Galadriel a lot more as I enjoy her scenes the most. 

It's interesting how everyone's perspectives on the show are so different. I've read tons of people saying the elves are boring and the harfoots are their favorite. I'm the opposite lol. 

Overall, I was impressed with the first episode, but the second episode really didn't do much -- some of it also didn't make sense.
