I don't know if I can do it! (deep breath) Ok, so I was surfing the web and thought to check the wizards of the coast site to see if they had any pictures that were new. I like some of the D&D art they have. On their home page they also list the other projects that they have their hands in. One of which is apparently GI Joe. (dramatic pause) GI Joe People!!!
Anyway, I got it in my head to go on ebay and see if they were selling and GI Joes figures. The 3 3/4" ones I grew up with and wished I hadn't gotten rid of not the lame 12" ones. I'm blown away. For 200 bucks I could almost completely rebuild the collection. and I would assume fill in gaps over time.
Now I know what your thinking. To old for toys or can't re-live your childhood. First of all we all have toys, it's just that the type, quality, and reasoning of the toys changes as we grow. Second re-living a childhood requires me to have outgrown such things to begin with, lol. Man I miss sitting and playing with that junk for hours on end. The fun never stopped and (at least in that way) I haven't changed much. Things like that can still entertain me for extended time lengths.
So, as you can see, I am gathering all the will power and grownup logic I can to fight the urge to buy now. I realize I have no time for that stuff now, but the bids run out in 4 hours! Gaaaahh! Must....be....strong.

So what happened? Did you buy the collection?
Id say buy one first or maybe upgrade your computer :)
I was in Walmart today and saw some of the toys they have there, man I wish I had some of these new toys when I was a kid.
OH the DVD burner I want is 200$
:) lol
Noah-
No I didn't buy it. Much as it kills to let that one go I have better things to invest money and time into. I don't think I'll upgrade my PC, but I do plan on getting a Lappy before the end of the year. If funds allow. ;)
No kidding. "Kids these days. When I was a kid I had to play with [fill in blank with rediculous claim of choice]."
200 Bucks for a burner? Must be a good one. I suppose you would need a non-standard burner for non-standard DVDs though.
The 200$ one is external, so if we get rid of this desktop and get a laptop then we dont have to worry about DVD burner. At least thats what Im thinking..
