The 1994 Donkey Kong game for Game Boy. I'm really looking forward to finally owning this gem of a game.

Bought a Sega Dreamcast and four games for it (Armada, Incoming, Slave Zero and Red Dog: Superior Firepower).

I also bought the Blu-ray for "Howl from Beyond the Fog" last week that I forgot to mention in this thread.

An NES Advantage controller.
And, at long last, the NES game, Godzilla: Monster of Monsters!

Just got the Gamera: The Complete Collection Blu-ray to kick off my movie collection. The box was much bigger than I expected and I don't even want to remove the plastic around it. :lol:

My local fye. It was very hard to find and it was the very last one in the store. I was lucky to get it when I did.

I just bought Kino Lorber's Blu-ray release of Herbert Selpin's 1943 infamous German film "Titanic".

I wasn't planning on buying any Blu-rays recently, but it was on sell, so I bit the bullet.

A new CPU AIO cooler for my PC because my old one the pump went bad. I got the Corsair Elite 100i with LCD display. Should be here Wednesday and my brother-in-Law is going to install it next weekend for me.

Batman Beyond: The Complete Series on Blu-ray (which also includes Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker - The Original Uncut Version). I got this one at my local Walmart and it was the very last one in the store.

Now if only Warner Archive could do the same thing to The Zeta Project and Beyond Westworld (that is, if it even exists anymore).

I bought the 2012 Blu-ray digibook release of Full Metal Jacket.

It's been out of print for a long time, so I was really surprised when I found one selling on eBay brand new for $30.

That's the one I want to get, mostly because it's got that exclusive Kubrick documentary.

Huh. I didn't know that. Guess I made the smart move of buying that digibook instead of the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray that was released back in 2020. I saw several of those digibooks selling on eBay for a cheap price right now. You should buy one before they're all gone.

You probably know, of course, that Collins/Omni wrote a fourth book, a short story collection titled Assorted Absurdities: Tales of Kaijupunk & Other Genres. Are you going to buy that one, too?

And did you know that all four of those books are parts of a shared universe?

Btw, I just got a Godzilla T-shirt a little while ago, too.

Yeah, I know that his first three books are part of a shared universe. Ryan made that really clear in his videos. Although I don't seem to recall Ryan mentioning anything about Assorted Absurdities: Tales of Kaijupunk & Other Genres being part of this shared universe.

As for buying Assorted Absurdities: Tales of Kaijupunk & Other Genres, that one doesn't really interest me that much. I probably will buy it someday, but not now or anytime this year.
