lots of little things
Oct. 31st, 2006 11:33 pmGreat video post from
cj_rss yesterday - I could sit here and re-link everything but I'm far too lazy, so just go to the post and watch Numfar do the dance of joy, an Even Stevphen about Halloween, and the new version of 'This is Halloween' sung by Marylin Manson (that's for you
dstntp1lgr1m. There's also the 'life and death of a pumpkin' but that just freaked me out!!!! Disturbing to say the very least.
In other news, according to evilavatar.com, all those bastards that pre-ordered the PS3 with the sole intention of re-selling it on ebay for an insane amount got bitch slapped today. A new Ebay policy asked that all items listed that were preorders included a picture of the reciept to prove that the preorder had been placed. They used these receipt to track the preorders and there was a conference call this morning to EB Games stores telling them to cancel and refund the orders. *EVIL LAUGH* You all know how much the preorders on Ebay thing has bugged me (see: Puppet Angel) so I'm happy to see that some attempt is being made to stop these guys from making thousands of dollars. I'm sure they'll just go back and preorder and then sell it again once the item is out, but still....
And speaking of pre-orders and collecting, I broke down and joined the Buffy Collector Club that is run thru Time & Space Toys. I recieved as my "free gift" for joining, the Summer's Family Album, which includes the ONLY Joyce Summer's figure out there. It arrived today and I hadnt' realized it was a numbered item! I don't own very many numbered items, so I will cherish the small piece of paper that has the number on it, even if it is 1800 out of 3000!
and I almost forgot - Muppet Show Season 2 will FINALLY be released in "early 2007"! woo-hoo!!
