Christmas Gifts

Recommended Posts

OK, it's October, but this is when that FAO Catalogue arrives and you usually point out: I want this, need that, and can't go on in life without one of these....

 

Well, this year's sucked. The only SW stuff I saw was the AotC chess set, Jabba's Palace Lego Playset, and the new MR F/X Lightsabers.

 

I got what I want for Christmas planned though, so post here as you add to that list ;)

 

Mine:

 

Collecting

AotC Chess set

(oh, more is to come. These usually come from my parents seeing they cost more. I'll flip through a Brian's and pick out some old stuff I may need like Endor playset if nothing new comes)

 

non-Collecting

Indiana Jones Trilogy DVD

Matrix DVD

Matrix Reloaded DVD

LotR: Fellowship of the Ring DVD

LotR: The Two Towers DVD

(3 sisters each with 50 some dollars for each person, one gets the Indy set, another the two Matrix films, and the third the LotR ones :D)

 

I'll add onto the list as I find more stuff and may end up replacing others. I don't have enough money to get all those DVDs and video games and books I may have my eye on. (Jedi Academy XBOX, GTA: Vice City XBOX, NEW Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels, Jedi Shadow, Jedi Sunrise.... So overwhelming!)

oh and, Money.

 

I've discovered that I get more for just plain money, and then I just go out and buy them :p

 

I know you got a sister, but I got 3. I dunno how that'd work out in gift/ cash quantities.

 

I find when you get cash as a gift, you actually get more through gift form. I'd get 200 through cash, but you see, if I get it through collectibles, it could be up to 300 :eek: That's because my dad wants the stuff too and uses the holiday to stock up since my mom hates my room and basement :D

 

And, Z? Wait for the XBOX 2 if you get 1000 dollars ;)

The only way I'll get 1000 bucks is if I save up for 2 years, and for me, thats impossible :p

 

I could get an XBox, seeing as there isn't much else that I really want.... But I'll probably get more games for the cube and PC isntead... I dunno. Andrew will probably get an XBox, so I think I won't. ;)

Star Wars gifts for Christmas. Hmm, I remember that I have got two books, one Jabbas Palace booster and game : Star Wars Episode I : The Phantom Menace. On this Christmas I want to get Tropico 2 and probably something with Star Wars example - books or booster.

OK, as you may or may not know, I got the Indy Trilogy the day it came out and am gonna finish it off today with Last Crusade and the making of it.

 

That means I can add 007: Everything or Nothing and Jedi Academy to my list.

 

Now, onto SW:

 

Red ARC Trooper if one is not found in the store.

Gifts to buy for people? I always get something I know they and I will both enjoy.

 

I know this is a bit off topic, but what the hell.

Mom - nothing yet, probably will get her some Beatles or Simon and Garfunkel CDs

 

Oldest Sister - Spider Man 2

 

Other Older Sister - That new Nirvana Boxset

I asked for a bunch of random stuff, including those vintage SW figures that are seemingly impossible to find. I have a Obi-Wan figure and a Darth Vader figure, both of which are missing limbs/ a head (in Vaders case :( ). I've also had to replace the original sabers with colored toothpicks, which (IMO) work much better.;)
