It's on Like Donkey Kong....Jr.

For the few blogs I follow it just seems like everyone's lives are going to hell right now.  I myself went into the hospital last Sunday and got out on Thursday.  I come in and read a few blogs....and quite a few of the first blogs I clicked are going on hiatus or not even sure if they are coming back at all!

THAT SUCKS!!

But...
I wish them well, and I wish the ones that are coming back soon...a speedy return!  :)

On to the blog.
About 2 weeks back I received an awwwwwwwwwwesome package from Jboypacman over at the blog  Revenge of the Cosmic Ark.  I had asked him through my YouTube channel if he would keep and eye out for the Kre-O blind bagged Transformers that were getting released (still have not seen them local) because for some reason we in Kansas City get stuff super late.  Well...long story short, he said he would.  A few days later I get a comment back and he picked up a set for me.  I was ecstatic!  In the coming days I was keeping and eye out for them, expecting a yellow envelop in my mailbox.  Instead I recived a huge package delivered by FEDEX!  WOAH!

I won't go over everything in this blog post, but I will highlight something I thought was cooler than HELL!  I never had one growing up, and I had seen all of them at one point or another growing up.  I had even been thinking about getting one of the machines (but cost kept me away).
I speak of the mini Coleco Tabletop Arcade cabinets.

This is the Donkey Kong Jr. Tabletop, it is based on the Nintendo Game and Watch Donkey Kong Jr Tabletop almost exactly (aside from the sticker art).  Sadly, this would have been even cooler if they had done it as one of their traditional Coleco mini cabinets, but by the time this was released the videogame crash of the 80's was almost upon the US.

One of the coolest things in my eyes, that I never got growing up.  I am a retro game collector along with the toys and comics....and when I saw that in the box I was ready to strangle Jboy.  lol

Hopefully I will have a package going out to him again soon.  :)

THANKS AGAIN JBOY!!!

Galaxy High 2 disc DVD set by Anime Works.

A pretty cheaply made DVD set, but still awesome to own.  No extras with this set, not even

a paper insert.  What you see here is what you get.

Cardboard Slip Case, and 2 DVDs.
