From time to time you stumble on something cool on the web... today it's Wil Wheaton's blog from a day or two ago: here.

Here's my mosiac using the 249 (as of tonight) photos in the database:

Boxing Day Haul

Quick post more to do with the excitment of discovering a new game than the actual shopping (although that was cool too). I gave my brother a bunch of Star Wars Miniatures "Starship Battles" for his non-denominational annual year-end gift (aka a X'mas present in some circles). Yes, I was going a little nuts with the spending, but in my view, it was kind of half for myself anyway since... well, it takes 2 to play anyway. And did we play - I think we squeezed in 3 games as of today. And the great thing is, since it's a relatively newly launched game, there aren't that many rules to worry about (and even less errata published so far).

Ref. the following:
about clone strike

My brother and I hit the local gaming shop this year as we do every year for our Boxing Day ritual and found that the store was able to get in a case of the old Clone Strike expansion. My brother bought a few boxes. Found a few cool characters including Yoda, young Anakin, and a couple of Jedi who appeared in Episodes 2 and 3 of the films.

But the big "best buy" this year was a case of the "Bounty Hunters" expansion set. The store owner, who is on a first name basis with my brother, pointed out that he had cases to liquidate... and since I was ready to buy 2 or 3 at $20 apiece anyway, it was a no-brainer at only $80 a case (that's like getting 2 boxes free). My brother and I split the cost (sort of, but I'm not counting - it's the holiday season after all).

Finally, I also grabbed a new Warhammer tank model to add to my alien army. It's been something I've been putting off forever. And I think I've reached a point in my WH40K hobby where I'm just collecting the army models just for completeness since I've grown weary of experimenting with failure-inducing army construction... "stick with what you know" is my motto these days.

Transformers Teaser 2

Depending on how you look at it, this is actually "teaser 1" because well... the first teaser that was released earlier this year didn't really have anything to do with anything...

Anyway - Yahoo Movies has it HERE. So check it out.

I'm not particularly excited - still no action footage but well... kinda neat. We'll see. The full trailer ought to do more for me to get me excited.
