Christmas 2017 (Christmas Haul/General Topic)

[Zaysho]

Got some nice stuff from my family this year:

-Super Mario Odyssey (Switch) - Played a bit with my sister today, it's fun even though I find the controls a little weird.

-Pokémon Ultra Moon (3DS) - Haven't opened yet, but I'll boot it up some time this week.

-My Hero Academia Season 1 DVD/BD combo - watched this in Japanese this year, nice to own the a bilingual release and I look forward to rewatching it dubbed

-Hunter X Hunter (2011) vol. 3 BD - don't own the other sets, but I love the Yorknew City storyline and I wanted to make sure I own that arc if nothing else (will have to wait for the next volume for that, but at least I can start rewatching it).

-Kingdom Hearts Goofy Funko Pop figure - neat little surprise from my sister; I saw the package wrapped under the tree and remembered I showed my sister the new Sonic ones and said I really liked the Shadow, so I assumed this was it but it turned out to be a Kingdom Hearts one instead. It's a really nice figure (I know Pops are hit and miss, but I like some of them) and I'm happy to have it on my shelf.

I might try to get a couple other things on my own, but I'm happy.

Also got $75 from my Grandma and Aunt that I spent on DVDs, odds and ends, DLC, and Yooka-Laylee for Switch as well as the Waluigi and Daisy amiibo figures from my Cousin. (Already have 'em, though, so I'll probably swap 'em in at Walmart.) We also did kind of a grab bag game where I won the worst gift: Minions stickers. XD Fantastic Christmas all around.

[Big Panda]

I'm bloody tired from how much food I've eaten these last two days, but I had a brilliant Christmas day.

The vast majority of my gifts were either lots of chocolate, or a small selection of DVDs and other odd things.

I got the latest Simpsons and Doctor Who series boxsets, the Pokemon Indigo League boxset (which only just came out here in the UK) as well as the 19th movie, and the first boxset of Dragon Ball Super. Other DVDs include the Captain Underpants movie, Olaf's Frozen Adventure (which the people at the shop forgot to take the security lock out of, so we can't open it) and the new Beauty and the Beast on Blu ray.

I also got books: five Simpsons comics graphic novels, as well as this years annual, a Doctor Who-themed poem book, and this amusing-looking parody book called "Donald Trump's Christmas Carol".

Random knicknacks include the Bowser wedding Amibo (the one I specifically asked for as I'm indifferent to the other two), and an illuminated Harry Potter wall display, and my very first Cards Against Humanity set!

Oh, and I got one game: the Wii U version of Mario and Sonic at Rio, since I didn't have it yet.

Great day all around, and I love my family for helping to make it one ^^

Other than the usual guzzlings of food and chocolate (mmm, chocolate apple rings...), I got some more Hot Wheels, Star Trek Beyond, Rogue One (which I so watched and found happily that it holds up nicely post-cinema), a ludicrously difficult jigsaw me and my family are still working on as of this post, a model of the 60's Batboat and a very generously filled tin of Pokémon cards.  A very nice day I should say.  If I had the nerve, and I didn't already receive Xenoblade X for my birthday, I'd probably have asked for BOTW, but my time with it will eventually come...

[Chic]

Most of my Christmas gifts were bought during Black Friday, and I never took a pic of all of them, so here's a compilation of their pics from the website:

(I crossed out the lingerie) I also got an Xbox One X, a black dress, and $150. This guy I like is sending me one of his paintings plus a bracelet, a picture he drew of me and a note. And I think my family might get me something next month as a Christmas present!

Just recently came back from spending Christmas with the family and I could have asked for a better Christmas trip if I’ve tried! The best Christmas present I got this year was my cousin surprising me by coming a day earlier than expected. We’ve become very close over the past few years and we’ve been so excited to see each other. Needless tloss say we had a great time hanging out with each other. 

As for the rest of my gifts, I got some Amazon and iTunes gift cards, a new mattress cover, an extra shaver and electric toothbrush, and a waterpix flossed.
