Lynk Former Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 Heyo everyone the forum is in need of a new topic So the question today is: What thing have you bought just because say a character from a series or your favourite actor/actress or something like that has the same thing or something similar... Who or what made you go out and buy something you wouldn't normally buy? === Me? I went out and got myself a G-Shock. Why? Cause Nene Romanova (look at my avatar, the blonde chick) wears a G-Shock in Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue15 Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 I bought Morrowind even though I've never played it or any games like it....(and because it was dirt cheap) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted March 30, 2003 Author Share Posted March 30, 2003 I bought the whole series of Gasaraki just cause Shinji Aramaki, the guy who did some mecha designs in BGC and did the mecha designs in BGC2040 did the mecha in Gasaraki...

Jedi Skywalker Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 Well I bought myself The One Ring (the silver one not the golden) because I wanted to have the Ring and I bought myself the game from the Fellowship of the Ring but I don't play it anymore because I can't pass the Black Riders. I bought an R2-D2 3d puzzle last year and still haven't completed it. Sometimes I think why did I buy that stupid thing, well someday's I think "Cool, I'm building my own R2-D2, a lot better then having a C3PO":r2d2: ANd now I'm trying to collect all SW EU books, I don't need them but I want them! (just like the games although I only like RS, BFN, TPM) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(just like the games although I only like RS, BFN, TPM) I am waaaaaaaaay ahead of you. I already have most of the books, and I'm still buying them. I buy the Action Fleet because I think they're cool. I also have a lot of Star Wars Micro Machines, but I didn't feel like spreading them all out. I'm still hunting for the last 2 Action Fleets I need. I basically buy anything Star Wars if I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taos Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 I guess that's why he's called StarWarsPhreak. You have a very impressive collection there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 I bought a Cowboy Bebop DVD even though I'd never seen an episode. Everyone kept on raving on about how good it was so I thought I'd check it out. Luckily, I love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lujayne Posted March 30, 2003 Share Posted March 30, 2003 I once bought Gundam Deathscythe, because Duo piloted it, except I don't think it's the actual Deatscythe, I think it's a shoddy forgery; the inside of the cockpit is lined with tinfoil. I keep in my garage so it won't rust when it rains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pisces Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 Originally posted by Kjølen I have been searching online for this thing: Ahhh, Shikon no tama.... A marble? Anyway, the only things I bought today was the new Linkin Park CD (a little disappointing) and a sleeping bag for when I do the 30-hour famine. No way I'm freezing this year. I don't really buy stuff because people on T.V. or games have them. I buy whatever's in my price range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jared Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 I bought the Deathscythe, because my friend ashley is obsessed with duo, so I though I would just buy it for the heck of it. I have a lord of the rings ring also. I have many star wars books, and alot of SW toys which I have never opened and just keep them in the garage cause I have no time to mess with them. I'm buying turok evolution because rogue 15 says it good, and bought a bunch of DBZ crap cause....I......could. heheheh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nute Gunray Posted April 1, 2003 Share Posted April 1, 2003 I buy things because of how cute the actress/musician/fictional character is or because of some mysterious reason I can't answer. I have five Queen Amidala action figures, two dolls, three small posters, two large posters, and a 7' tall cardboard cutout from the Phantom Menace. I have a drawer full of magazines that have Natalie Portman, Alyson Hannigan, and Avril Lavigne in them or on the covers. I have an 8x10 photo of Hannigan and another of Kirsten Dunst on my wall. I have two Mary Jane Watson figures, one in package and one that I can play with. I have 27 Star Wars figures, six of which are stormtroopers (three sandtroopers), two Jango Fetts and two Boba Fetts. I have nine different Gundam Deathscythes (all incarnations) in various states of assembly. I have two Eva Unit 02s just because Asuka is hot. I have a Kasumi and a Lei-Fang from Dead or Alive 2. I have problems I don't know why I have a need to purchase so many sandtroopers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
