sort of.
i bought a collection item on my credit card, when i promised myself i wouldn't.
why?
because it was one of the ULTRA SUPER FUCKING RARE 1:1 replicas of Cole's AMP from inFAMOUS 2. the auction said only 20 were made, im not doubting it.
i am now literally the best infamous collector in the entire world. i heard about these being made but i never, ever thought i'd actually ever see one for sale.

you seriously have the greatest collection ever. Everyone should be jelz of your inFamous collection.
also I think it's funny that you got one after that one person in that thread on SPP was like "OH I BET SHE'S GOING TO GET ONE OF THOSE SUPER SPECIAL AMPS :'C :'C :'C"
also ngl, i am going to post my amp on that forum just because of the people saying i was going to get one. Y YES, YES I DID.
but not from SPP. :'cWow, really?! Less then $500.00?! I'd say that is a damn good deal, besides the chances of you ever finding Cole's AMP is slim to none!
Sadly, I was bad this morning myself:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&rt=nc&nma=true&item=380348286269&si=oS%252BM5gxsSjIr4ui7Ntnp4Y4jd0Y%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT
I really, really, really, should not of bought it. I has dept to still clear!!
*sigh*
I searched eBay for the going rate of Gary Oldman autographs, most are $50.00 and up. Not of of them had certificates to prove they are authentic either. My feels are, when am I going to find an autograph picture of Zorg so cheap again?! Most of the signed photos are of Sirius Black anyway, this is the first Zorg one I have ever found.
Oh, I had a dream about inFamous last night. I was at your home and you were showing me the game. You handed me the controller, so I could give it a try. I made Cole pick-up a roll of toilet paper and had him throw it at Zeke...O_o
also i had someone else mail me and say they had an infamosu 2 press kit as well...people are making me feel like my rare items arent so rare now LOLAlso that photo is awesome!! Signed things are super awesome. ;-; I absolutely adore the signed inFamous items I managed, even if they did end up costing slightly more because of it... Especially if you'd not seen one before. Ahahahaha its kind of like me and this AMP i bought...except mine was like way more expensive.
also that is awesome....i wish you could throw toilet paper at things. sdlkadkkd.
i could throw a car at zeke, but somehow that is not as funSadly, I was never on at the right time to nab one! Then this fellow got wise and priced them at high dollar. I just wonder how he got so many?! He also repeatedly listed the Shiny Beast charm sets. Now, I was fortunate there...;)
At least people are coming to you with these rare items, it will probably help you with locating future rare inFamous stuff! :D
Indeed it is and cheap too, after shipping I paid $31.99!! I guess Gary Oldman is not worth that much?! The same seller has one of Bruce and Milla for almost $200.00 a pop! I have been renting other movies with Oldman in them, the man often gets so much into character he is hard to recognize, very talented fellow! The movie, "Dead Fish" was a fun one to watch...XD
Throwing TP would be a blast, I'd probably laugh my self to death if I could do that in a game. I do not know why I find potty humor so amusing, but I do! No, throwing cars is not as funny...:\
If you could guess what would you say??
Hm... $400?
but he told me he won it in a contest, so that probably explains it.
lucky bastardalso really? When was there a beast up? I havent been watching the comm lately
so it wont tempt me...fffI FEEL LIKE I MISS A LTO OF THINGS NOW. :(And now I'm torn between saving in case one pops up or splurging on all the CDs/DVDs that I've wanted for years.
Also, I guess that is the only thing that's sort of worked in my favor now... I'd been saving up my money in a seperate collection thing just because inFAMOUS 2 is out and cool promo stuff comes out around when the game does....but uhm....i still never quite expected it to be this much...
plus my car broke too, stupid car :(Well, I'd rather have the Suicune, if it appears soon. Otherwise I'd probably rather have the CDs/DVDs while I wait for Suicune to reappear. I haven't even seen a grailcune in 6+ months. It's like they're purposefully avoiding me...
Your car seems to break a lot. :(
if only you could find a BIN suicune for like 40 dollars amiriteThough......that is also hard to gauge.. :\ At least with my stuff I can generally guess a time period.
AND THIS IS ACTUALLY THE FIRST TIME MY NEW CAR HAS BROKEN....my old one broke 9083259823 times because it was a piece of shit that leaked from everything that could possibly leak. the problem in my new car was kind of a fluke too.....steering column got wobbly. i didnt even know that could happen to cars tbh. :|
lol I've never seen a Suicune go for less than retail, which was somewhere around $200.I've seen the steering column get misaligned on one of our older cars. But it generally doesn't happen to new cars...
yea see, this is what i thought too? it was the wheel tilt breaking... and i was like BUT I NEVER USE THE WHEEL TILT WHAT THE HELL, but it made steering my car really stupid. :| sakjdasldj im just hoping this is the /only/ thing that goes wrong with it. dnw to go through this car what i did with my old one. :( especially because im making car payments on it.
NO, BUT I WOULD MAKE A PLACE FOR IT. IT COULD GO ON MY BED AND I'D SLEEP ON THE COUCH. OR IT COULD GO IN THE LIVING ROOM UNTIL I MADE SPACE IN MY BEDROOM. (I'm sure my parents would appreciate that.)
Yeah, that's really weird. I've only heard of that happening if you ruin the alignment by getting in a wreck or constantly hitting curbs.
also my parents tried to talk me out of it lolALSO....MAYBE YOU SHOULD TAPE IT TO YOUR CEILING!? :D:D:DD bonus if you somehow secure it to a moving object on the ceiling so then you can have a mobile flying suicune. THINK HOW AWESOME!!!!!!!
yea idk. it wasnt actually the alignment..it was the tilt in the wheel that lets you adjust where it sits. the repair guy said a pin inside of it basically snapped off which is like ffffffffff BECAUSE I NEVER USE IT. HOW DOES SOMETHING I NEVER USE BREAK!? >:C
lol I have no ceiling fans. I'd say I could hang it from the chandelier, except it would probably break the chandelier. But I could put it below the chandelier. And when people asked why I had a giant blue plush blocking the light source, I'd be like "What light source? My Suicune is the light source. Don't you see how it SPARKLES?!"
However, I've only started religiously searching for one in the past two years, since there was no way I could afford the plush prior to that.
If you do decide to part with it, I'd be super interested in buying it/bidding on it. (But I might need a week or two to get the money. I've received no paychecks from my new job, so I'd need to do some super fast collection weeding.)
I'm glad I've never had an emergency situation come up. I could sell off most of my collection in an emergency, but there are one or two items I would never want to part with. Thankfully those items would be pretty much worthless to anyone else. At least Margarita went to someone on the comm.
I will let you know, right now it is up to an auction I have on eBay for a rare Okami model. There maybe some last minute bids, but it does not look promising...;_; Even if I do sell "Hobo," I won't be listing her overnight. I will need to locate a box big enough...
Honestly, I have no one to blame but myself for my $$$ troubles. I tired making my Suicune collection grow to fast, now I am paying the price. I am happy that Margarita did go to a community member, whose grail was a Shiny Suicune PokeDoll. I rather see my items go to the community, but I may put "Hobo" on eBay. I am not sure yet?!
I've been searching for the shiny Pokedoll too, though not for nearly as long. I kind of regret not BINing Margarita, but that auction came at the worst possible time for me. (A day after I bought another high want, and before I had time to update my sales.)
Good luck. I thought at first that you were talking about this one, but the one you listed is much nicer, imo.
If you do decide to list Suicune on ebay, could you let me know? I generally don't check ebay for the giant plush. The only ebay listings I've seen for them plush are from that banned community member (lugiacollector?).
I remember that you bid on Margarita, I felt bad that you lost out too. If only I could clone certain items...That seems to be how it usually goes, an item you really wants comes at the worst possible time! That is how I have gotten in trouble, for I'd whip out the ol' credit card...:\
Yeah, I do not care for that polystone statue, something about the eyebrows, LOL!! XD Anyway, the reserve has finally been met, but the auction is still not over...;)
I will most certainly let you know! I am not sure if I would do an auction listing with a "BIN" option or just have the plush for a "BIN" price?! Ugh, lugiacollector...we won't go there!! :\
Nothing says "ultimate fan" like incredibly rare merchandise. Looks handy for frightening away intruders too.
while i might not have won one, i do have one now. AND IT WILL BE THE BEST.
and i will also post it on there again to make everyone jealous because i am the best personalso your icon is adorable omg.
I love you and I hate you right now
...ive also got a replica of cole's wallet coming too.
