Mailbag: GBE Mailbag: Toys and Pillow Ca[g]es

The Mass Effect 2 deliveries still make me laugh every time. I don't understand it, but I like it.

Transformers: Clenching Thunder Colon™

@grayfoxbr: SECONDED. Zaku are the best and Char's Zaku is the best variation!!!!

What's the plural of Zaku? Zakus? Zaku? I feel like I'd have to watch about 10 episodes of Mobile Suit Gundam to get an answer.

@how92: It thought "acquire the box" was "Hey Cortana?"

I wish someone would just send me a box of transformers and legos. lmao

As a Transformers fan and Gundam fan who enjoys the Masterpiece and Master grade figures.. Gah damn, luckyyyyyyy. The price of his gift collection is skyrocketing.

That Lego Technic robot made me actually gasp.

Merry Beastmas!

As someone who also grew up with both Christmas and Hanukkah, sounds like Vinny's kid is in store for an awesome childhood :D

(Spoiler: Now neither Christian or Jewish but boy the toys were great!)

Fuckkkkk.... That Char Zaku-II is SO good. I'm super jealous, Vinny!

I would imagine it's well after Vinny's interest in the brand faded, but some Beast Wars figures for the Beast Krew would be pretty damn fitting.

There's also a part of me that salivates over those Masterpieces, but I'm happy with my (relatively) cheap Hasbro stuff, and I don't have to worry about what happens if I break it.

That Ice-t t-shirt with the ice cubes was nothing short of incredible.

Oh my god, Captain Invictus sent the big box... Captain Invictus as in The Hat Baron from Idle Thumbs? Worlds are colliding!

damnit I would love one of those gundam metal build kits. I'm so jealous >.<

at this point there are more toy robots in that buildign than humans

I already donated a bunch, these were others I didn't.

You are incredibly wrong and I can only imagine you've not held or transformed MP Shockwave(which he already bought apparently). He's an absolute joy to transform and one of the best Transformers I've ever owned. The way his legs transform is downright ELEGANT. Quakewave is just a fat bastard in comparison. Like, seriously, look at these two. While I do suppose I would prefer Shockwave in a slightly darker purple, the cartoon-accurate colors are fine as well and darker in-hand than in pictures for some reason.

Seriously. Quakewave's a brick.

I genuinely hope you don't keep him at work. Dev's rapidly rising in value and I can absolutely see someone nicking yours off your desk.

I will never be free. Even after finally selling like 25 of them I still have nearly 70 more.

I've been following GB since the beginning, and Idle Thumbs shortly after they rebooted. The inflatable donkey that Brad blew up during one of their pax panels you can see me handing him right as the panel starts in the video.

I still need to send the thumbs a gift box. Not sure what to include though aside from dota merch for Sean.

I guess I missed the Mass Effect 2 joke with Alex.

I USED to have all the Masterpiece Transformers that have been gifted to Vinny so far (and then some). I DO still have my Perfect Grade RX-78-2 and MS-06 Char's Zaku II. They are dope. I also have a MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam that I will finish building some day.

Those pillowcases are AMAZING!

When the Steam window popped up I tried to minimize it because I thought it was me.

EA must have heard the call because Mass Effect 2 is free on Origin right now.

I wouldn't be surprised if every giant beast merch order comes with a free copy of mass effect 2 in the future signed by internet sensation Alex Navarro

They have to be thinking about a Mass Effect 2 endurance run

Sick St. Vitus hoodie.

I feel like since this is very Transformers-centric I just want to rant at how I hate how the limbs to this year's combiner wars Bruticus are impossible to find where I live and are ridiculously priced online. I somehow managed to get 3/5 figures locally at a convention for a good price but cannot find the other two at a reasonable price online (or at any price in person).

The only masterpiece I have is the Starscream in the G1 colours Vinny was mentioning and I love it. I'd love to get more but they are pretty expensive.
