The Small Scores Thread: Part 2!

[RetroRage]

I have a very large small score coming In a few days. I got a nice surprise influx of play cash and I let loose. Can't wait to share!

Same here.  Lotsa pictures to follow too

Hell no they're not overpriced!  There is no price tag to be granted the access to catch 'em all!

Amen!!

I find myself pre-ordering each new main series Pokemon game that comes out.  It is an addiction I can't help.

Come on over to my place, and I'll tell ya my personal accounts of dealing with the Pokemon fanatics during Pokemon's heyday in the late '90s. If that doesn't cure your addiction, nothing will.

I still get flashbacks from time to time...

The very definition of a "small score". I found this K'NEX Mario mini fig for lack of a better term.  I was looking in Target in their trading card area and this bag had fallen and was hiding behind a box of Magic: The Gathering cards.  I couldn't find anymore like it.  Not bad for $1.99, and it's even complete in box/bag with the instructions there lol.

My son has a few of those. He likes to give Luigi Yoshi's ass and then laugh quietly to himself.

You wait right there while I dial the Canadian equivalent of child protective services.

Once again, Luigi gets absolutely no respect whatsoever.

BTW they're now selling the Mario KArt K'Nex mini figures in blind packages, which include Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Toad and Bowser along with Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi.

Apparently, you can figure out which figure is in the bag based on decoding the UPC: http://awesometoyblog.com...ario-kart-figure-decoder/

Found these in a box next to a trash bin at the curb with other random non-gaming-related stuff also inside.  Nothing too special though and I don't collect cardboard.  Anyone need these?

How much?

On topic: Got a black 3DS yesterday. $100 for the 3DS, charger, dock, Super Street Fighter IV, and the Ambassador games.

[Slowman]

You scored with that 3DS.  Previous to the 3DS XL launch, $100 was a great price for a 3DS with no accessories or games.

As far as the Super Nintendo games go, pfft, I got them for free so...  Cover my shipping cost and a few extra bucks and that's fine with me.   I'd rather give someone here a good deal than sell them on eBay even though I could get more on eBay.
