Things you recently bought or got

[Silterpy]

I wasn't going to go, but my girlfriend wanted to go to the reptile expo last weekend. I wasn't looking to get anything, just to pass the time with her. She saw an anerythristic Honduran milk snake and got it for me (more like for her). Anerythristic means that the snake lacks the pigment that makes red and orange colors, so it's black, gray, and white.

I pre-ordered the Wolverine game and the 4 Dragon Quest Clay Monsters model kits. I've added a picture of what they look like. They are called clay monsters because the slimes look like they are made of clay.

I'm at the age where it takes me an hour to put together a new fan that shipped in cheap plastic molds pieces that made no sense View attachment 575987

So, you're not a fan?

 

[AncientBoi]

Okay but I expect an apology if I'm right.

Why would I buy something that cost more [there is only 1 piece that would fit from your suggestion]?

The 3 prong power cord.

Taste the fan

Way too many stuff. Where do I start.

Preordered movies that are getting shipped out this month (Hoppers, Flintstones in 4K and Super Mario Galaxy in 4K)
USB-C power supply and a SummerCart 64 for the N64.
GDEMU and a USB-C power board for my Dreamcast.
BlueRetro adapters and a PSxMemCard Gen 2 for my PS2.

I don't want to juggle memory cards with the PS2 and I want to use both my 30th Anniversary Dualsense controller and my custom 25th PS2 anniversary Dualsense controller.

Dreamcast games are getting stupid expensive, snagged a good deal on a 512GB microSD card so I'm gonna put a GDEMU in my console, also will swap the power board.

USB-C for powering the N64 is a nice upgrade but going from an Everdrive 64 v2 to a SummerCart64 will be a massive upgrade!

Speaking of overkill. My old PC was on it's last legs after 12 good years.
This beast is a MSI Inspire 5080 RTX / Ryzen 7 9800 / 32gb DDR5 6400MHz
Not into RGB, I think it's too much of a distraction but the only coolant option I had at the time was RGB. Haven't gotten around to turning it off.

Cheap knockoff retro watch for cosplay (can you guess the character?)
Strap/case definitely feels cheap, and I'm sure it's noticeably smaller than the real Casio, but it'll do for about 4 quid.

So close, but wrong colour, also I'd worry about the cheap knockoff watch breaking when I started morbing all over the place.

Correct colour! But still sadly no.

What can this mysterious GBA cart be?

Guru Logic Champ!

Jumped on the chance to get one of my favourite games on the cheap. Haven't checked for legitimacy yet but it's from a seller who seems trustworthy and I don't think it was an obvious game for fakes.

I should give it a good clean, had to pull it out and put it in again a couple of times before it started working (that's what she said). Battery still works for now, someone's saves still on there, but maybe I should put a fresh one in anyway.

I checked gameplay of this, looks like a good puzzle game, and this seems to be by the same people who did Puyo Puyo.

It's a great puzzle game, fun and challenging, and the presentation is brilliant (tho in Japanese). They (whoever got the IP after Compile) remade the same puzzle gameplay for DSiWare, but without the Champs (the yellow bird things).
