What’s your most recent non-Pokemon purchase?

Yeah it’s a bit funny for displaying

I’m trying to mostly get the TCG foil cards signed at events, and sell my Topps, but a few don’t sign anymore, like Viggo, and some have passed, such as Christopher Lee - so a tad tough.

Ian McKellen was a very hard one to get two years ago, but my consignor managed to get one just as he was coming out of a play in London!

The ones I can’t get on the TCG I will buy the fellowship Topps autos.

So far I have (in TCG)
Gandalf
Frodo
Witch king
Sauron
Arwen
Eowen
King Theoden (managed to get one of his last autos before he passed)
Legolas
Gimli

Topps:
Bilbo
Christopher Lee
Aragorn x2
Gimli
Sam / Pippin / Merry
Bormir
Faramir
Galadriel
Eomer
King Theoden

It’s a big passion of mine…hoping to pick up a 1st edition set of the books at some point.

Congrats! I can confirm it will be a wild ride but it’s also precious to watch two mini persons grow up side by side!

Sounds like a great collection goal!

I have a friend that runs an LOTR card FB group. I bet you’d be able to leverage it to find some of the TCG foils signed by people who no longer sign - there’s some super deep collections here.

I collect the Topps LOTR autos + sketches too, never got into the TCG side of them.

Not manga or anime related!!! I love Nintendo Power but I dont actively go out of my way to buy them but I love metroid and just had to snag this one. Glad I did, the price was right, it has the poster and inserts, and is in wonderful condition. I didn’t realize when I bought it it also had a metroid comic!

(Bunch of manga soon though look out)

Just bought this to be my next commander to build around. Will be a fun endeavor to build a land heavy/landfall deck without green.

This nice batch just came in on Monday from the Land of the Rising Sun. A couple of long overdue complete series, a couple of newly acquired tastes and of course the latest volumes for some ongoing manga series. Right around 141 delicious volumes in total.

I’ll try to post a more detailed breakdown next week, it’s kind of hectic here atm.

Not gonna lie I loved the early chapters of Gantz, but the longer the series went on it seemed like the story changed to something I didnt care for. I absolutely love all the volumes you have though, and the sheer amount of it all!

Very cool!

What’s the shipping cost on something like that if you dont mind me asking?

I loved Yu-Gi-Oh! when I was a kid around the same time as I was into Pokémon

Up until now the only card I owned was a PSA 9 Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon from Retro Pack 2 (my absolute #1 favourite). However I couldn’t resist snapping up this card when I saw it the other day. I absolutely love the secret rare foiling on Yu-Gi-Oh! cards and this artwork and the character design is one of the most epic I’ve seen on any card regardless of franchise.

Picked up my 3rd pair of NB 990s the past week since they’re my fav sneaker of all time. I guess I’m a bit of a rebel for buying USA made sneakers as a Canadian :grin:, but the shoe store I order from was having too good of a deal to pass up and at least I’m supporting a local business as part of this. In addition, I bought a different pair for my mother for mother’s day since that gave a bigger discount on both. Super happy with these so far :running_shoe: :

Yeah I can see what you mean, there’s definitely a point where it stops being Gantz 1.0 and turns into Gantz 2.0 so to speak. I enjoyed all of it though, enough to want to own the original JP release as well.

Thanks! I don’t mind at all. For all 141 Volumes combined, the total Shipping and Handling added up to JPY 41824 or around USD 291,28. It’s a decent amount of weight and it didn’t all come from the same seller so it adds up quickly. Well worth it though!
