Aaaaaaaand just took a look... Millennium Falcon: 7965 Sold Out Lego has sold out of the current incarnation of the Falcon. Whatever is at retail is all that will exist. Why is this kind of important? Rumors abound that they will re-release the monster UCS Millennium Falcon set that retailed for $500 a few years ago containing 5,195 parts. That obviously may or may not be true, but with new movies coming out, there is a strong chance that we will get a new Falcon and X-Wing which will probably be revealed by SDCC.

Whoa.... New trailer...

Playing my Banning / Strike / LTPC game would be in poor form. However... Celebrity Death Pool anyone? Draft ten celebrities.... If they pass you subtract the age that they passed from 100 and that is how many points you get added to your score. So for instance, Miley Cyrus is worth more in this game than Tony Bennett.

can you make all your posts like this? When I do memes I try to do my best and make them as accessible as possible.

Interesting It is funny you say critics are turning on the show. I've actually been surprised by all the praise the show has received lately. Right now Metacritic has it at an 80: http://www.metacritic.com/tv/the-walking-dead/season-5 Entertainment Weekly says best season so far: http://insidetv.ew.com/2014/11/11/walking-dead-best-season-ever/ Vox.com (never heard of them) had this to say: "I can't believe I'm writing this, but The Walking Dead is one of the best shows of 2014" http://www.vox.com/2014/12/1/7314439/walking-dead-finale This reviewer even mentions he disliked season 4 but now is enjoying season 5: "In contrast to his predecessors, Scott M. Gimple, the showrunner since Season 4, is getting nothing but praise. And deservedly so. I stand by everything I wrote a few weeks back: The Walking Dead has been shockingly good so far this year." http://grantland.com/hollywood-prospectus/walking-dead-2014-midseason-finale-recap/ Most of the reviews I'm reading of the season are praising the success of the show. It is curious that your review choices were more from the niche market that would probably include more comic fans than the ones I linked. Personally, I feel the show has huge peaks and valleys. I hate the way they split the show off and tell other stories. I'm truly only interested in Rick and I feel the split focus just doesn't work. It was what drove me crazy about last season. However, I think a lot of my criticism of the show is because of my love for the book. Talking to none comic readers, they love it! My wife loves the show. I have coworkers that love the show. Clearly from the ratings, people love the show. I'm not sure I'd say it is losing steam by any stretch of the imagination. And this is your opinion. So let me ask you something. How come you are entitled to your opinion, but when I present mine "I am talking out my ***?" Interesting how your mind works.

I also believe that you should have the books in hand before you sell. One of these days someone is going to claim they are coming back from CGC and then are lost in the mail after someone throws up a sign. Then the board is left with the following question: Were the books actually lost and does the seller get to cancel the sale or must they replace the book forcing the seller to be then out the book as well as the fees to purchase a replacement?

Yes and no... Was what he did wrong by offering it before it was in hand? I absolutely agree that it was wrong. However, even I have bought a few books on Comiclink or on eBay with the sole intent of flipping them at some point.

for the same reason people went back to Clink after their fiasco Comiclink went above and beyond when it came to addressing the problem. As Greggy recounts:

Comic Connect cancelled the transactions on Bill's books not Ricky Bobby. What Ricky is doing is a "dink" move (What up Greggy?) but it was Metro's canceling and not his. Anyway I figured that this would happen...

The check is in the mail

You know what two books I won... I wound up winning something else this past Sunday night through them. I called them up earlier this week to hold the books to combine the shipping. I should see my winnings some time in the new year I think.

Remember the last time that Metropolis experienced site outages and delays? Wait until his auction is reopened by Metropolis and additional bidders are allowed to make a go at the book. Just saying'

Have a link? Here is the link to "New Nintendo 3DS XL" for the Australian market. This is what North America is supposedly getting in 2015. This would be perfect for the train. http://www.nintendo.com.au/new-nintendo-3ds/ Showed a similar link further back about this new 3DS system. I'm definitely picking up the DX 3DS version. This would be perfect for my commute each day. And with the game library the way it is, I can pick up pretty much anything I want used to deflect the cost. The last time I had a portable gaming system, was probably the gameboy advance (flip version) in 2004.

There is a new Nintendo handheld that is arriving on US shores in 2015. Supposedly it is doing well in Europe but Nintendo wants the US to burn through their current handhelds first.

Guy did this in about 12 hrs... Not bad....
