I'm defaulting to photos from websites because it's too much effort to take pictures of the actual gifts, but here goes:

And a bunch of clothes and useful things. Gift cards! I'm probably preordering some vinyl from Light in the Attic.

I've also gotten just so many wrestling figures lately, because I write product descriptions for a figure site. They give me a lot of toys for the work, it's great. AEW Supreme Malakai Black, the Thunder Rosa Lights Out exclusive, WWE Elite 99...

I hope everyone is safe and sound & your wife didn’t have too bad a time at the hospital PB; Merry Christmas to all!

I got ripped off this Christmas…I got 2 pairs of socks (Star Wars & Christmas Story, so kinda funny), a LEGO Superman head band light (why?!?), a pounding massaging gun (I can use that), some cash and a weird picture/portrait of my parents (for some ungodly reason)

This is single-handedly the WORST Christmas I’ve ever had…and when I brought this up to my family and parents, no one seemed to care. Christmas to me has always involved toys and this completed the earlier feeling I had when this just doesn’t feel magical anymore.

I’m 46 years old and no toys?!? I must’ve slipped dimensions again and this time I’m someplace I don’t want to be…only explanation.

Sorry for the rant…hope you all are doing well

LOL, I felt so ripped off in many previous years, I feel like I'm making up for it now with toy gifts these years. The LEGO Superman headband light gave me a chuckle.

Very true. Honestly, it was hard this year to even find toys I wanted my wife to buy. I have to preorder all the Star Wars stuff because you never know if they will actually appear at retail, and I all but gave up on Marvel Legends. If it weren't for Galactus, I probably wouldn't have wanted Firelord even though I always dug the character. But my lord, is that orange bright. He's more like Day-Glo-lord, amirite? I'd have preferred a more subtle yellow-orange, but it is what it is.

First off PB, I'm gad everything is OK with your wife, I'll continue with you in a minute...

SWL - That's good . I was a wrestling reporter way back in the Attitude Era so I know how it is but back then it was quite different, it can be quite fun doing that stuff.

That is some cool stuff Acid, all of that seems like it would be all fun stuff to have :schal:

Idiot Savant - I know what you mean about different dimensions. I think about that all the time...watch the real news & YT and see how androgynous this day & age is and what their teaching kids in schools, all of the violence on the streets and so much more and this doesn't even cover 1% of what is really going on. In My day I would have never thought this era would be like this :roll:

PB, that is some great stuff you got there. Cool you got Naked Gun, Hulkamania & special British Bulldogs edition. Glad you completed your Biffs. I never did complete Mine, I believe I just have Figrin D'an. Got any more gifts from other family members and how about your kids, what you & your wife get them beside XBOX & Games and o they like'em :?:
