I got

a Family Guy tshirt and shorts, my folks kinda spoilt the surprise as i spied my mum buying it the day b4:rolleyes:

I got $100 from my grandpa

I got 2 red packets from my evil humourless uncle and aunt, had to ring them and thank them-gahhhh that was painful

also got a bag of chocos

And that was about it, no toys or any dvds:( Im not complaining, im glad i have yummy christmas foods and a family, albeit a weird one, but luckier then some people i guess.

I also bought my folks a gift for once. I got em a donut peach tree, i snuck it into the house, sheer genius i am!!! Then i bought some scratchies and stuck em on it. Then i woke up at 3am on Christmas day, snuck out to the lounge room and planted it under the tree, and every bloody floorboard and door squeaked loudly on the way:rolleyes:

I think i might have to buy myself a toy, havent bought a tf for ages, ive been trying to save up money for other stuff.

Oh, and i might be getting a late christmas present, a girlfriend i hope:D she did express some intrest in yours truly, but i shall see on Saturday:cool:

The usual cash, clothes, DVD's, games and vouchers but also this very special item from my father for my collection.
Superb condition. 100% complete. I have never actually seen this one before. Think it possibly may be a Jap exclusive. Requires some extra research anyway.

Most stores will stock two to three copies of each at most b/c of the cost of carrying stock. Ur best bet is to ask the staff at the store if they'll be willing to order it for u from Diamond. They'll likely ask u to pay a deposit too (as this prevents them from people who change their mind and them being left with stock). Most Melbourne stores work this way. If u can't find 'em, give someone in Melb a holler and we'll help u out. :)

Really? :eek: Wow, I thought it was just a random part that somehow just got in from some lazy employee who was'nt looking. :confused:

I wonder how many sets had this error? I probable would'nt care to much if they but a Dark Bley one in but Dark red & black?! :eek:
