Masterpiece Starscream
Due to a screwup on my, my mothers, or the on-line store's part, I got a re-issue of the 1982 Hound Transformer toy. I wanted the Binaltech Hount
Underwear
$50 Target GC
$50 Amazon GC
Babylon 5 S3
Superman Returns HD-DVD (I only have a normal DVD player, so no hi-def for me )
Alarm clock I can plug my ipod into
A crappy mug
A jar of chocolate peanut butter (I don't know why, I really don't)
A self-cleaning pet brush
2 She-Hulk tradepaperbacks: Superhuman Law and Single Green Female
Thor Visionaries: Walter Simonson volumes 1 and 3 (and 1 ends in a cliffhanger for volume 2.... which I don't have )
Avengers: Kang: Time and Time Again
A big $75 book on the X-men.... and I hate the X-Men
FEAR: Extraction Point

Other than Masterpiece Starscream and FEAR (sortof) it wasn't really a great haul this year. Probably the most underwhelming ever.

ESP Stephen Carptenter 7 String guitar (Black) - This thing is freaking brutal. Tuned down to a G# and it's just so heavy. Matches well with my 5150 head/cab.

Playstation 3 (Didn't ask for this, but my Mom got it for me and my son). We're still deciding to keep it or try and get a Wii.

Couple of Xbox 360 games.

Clothes and all sorts of other little gadgets.

Hope everyone has a great day

what are you playing it through?

Haven't bought an Amp for it yet. So far I've played it through my brother's crappy Squier amp, but I've been looking alot at a Marshall perhaps.

TEH SEXAY!!

If you can find a Carvin XV-212 combo somewhere, I would recommend it highly. I have one and will never let it go. If it broke or was stolen, I would get another. The best part is it only cost me $275 for its sweet, rich and LOUD tubey goodness.
