I've thinned a lot of plates out of my collection and added a bunch of others. What does that mean? It means that a bunch of plates that were on my wishlist for a long time are now in my collection, but a number of "big" plates are gone and need to go back onto the list.

Any Japanese celebrity launch plate.

The "Sooner or Later" plate list:

Some of the plates I've added that were on my list for forever:
Swedish Launch Gold 24K
Zero Hour DOA3 Tournament Airbrush
Tales of Vesperia
Medal of Honor Airborne

There is a few of these on british ebay, ie assassin creed, fear. also i have the rainbow six vegas 1 but didnt no it was sort after... lol

I updated my list. I tripped across a couple of the second tier plates, and I've got a couple of first tier plates that I knew were on teh way so I didn't put them on my list.

Q: Has ANYONE ever seen one of those 400 Zero Hour DOA airbrushed plates for sale? Honestly, that's probably my #2 most wanted plate besides the IdolM@ster Girls plate, and if I had to choose, I'd probably take the DOA plate simply because you never see them - even less than the IM@S Girls.

Last time I saw one was actually AT Zero Hour. :(
Are there really 400 of them?! I thought they were much more limited than that.
Man, I remember watching those guys make them on site. Too bad the area was fenced off - I would've tried to make an offer for one of em before it made it to the tournament. ;)

I was in awe. Rick (Aceattorney) had to tear me away from there to see other stuff - like games and stuff.

They had two boxes of two hundred faceplates. They might have messed up a couple, but the number is officially 400.

Dude, I wish I could go back in time and hang with you. You better be at whatever passes for E3 this year.

I know! It's a bummer we met 2 years after being in the same place at the same time.
I've never been to E3 but I've always wanted to go. I had a pass for E4 but couldn't make it due to midterms (stupid college; always gettin me down). I did go to the VGL concert though - cool story behind that.
A funny thought - since I know you're here in CA and a huge Star Wars fan like me, were you at Celebration IV? That would be a crack up if we were at all these places at the same time but were oblivious since we didn't know each other. :cheers:

No. Rick went and got me some stuff, like the McQ Luke. I had to work.

That's a bummer! To be honest though, you really didn't miss much. The most fun I had at that whole thing was at night when all the actors who were signing all day went to the bars to unwind at night.
My girlfriend and I took shots with Kenny Baker (R2D2) and his wife. We had to literally lift him onto the barstool. For his size, that dude can drink!

I just clicked on your interview at HawtyMcBloggy's.

Holy. Crap.

I figured some of those would never make it into collectors hands. The two E306 display plates, the gold Swedish plate (I'm from Kingsburg CA, the Swedish Village).... I mean, whoa.

I have an "in" at MS and I don't have cool plates like those.

I've just gotten lucky with a lot of those. I've bought a few collections - sometimes just for one plate - and sold off the ones I don't want or have dupes of to make back some money. A lot of times I can break even by selling them individually. I didn't collect any faceplates from games (I still kind of don't - Eternal Sonata and AC6 being the only exceptions so far) in the begining. If I did, my collection would be a lot closer to Cheez's in size.
One of the launch team plates I got (I had 3 of the "I Made This" plate at one point) was in a collection I bought on eBay from a guy in Maryland. The Swedish Launch plate was on eBay by itself (only one I've ever seen on there) and I paid out the nose for it.
I've just the right place at the right time on a lot of those.
That, and the fact that I

You.... what?

I have no idea how that line got there. The only explanation I have is that I was in a hurry to leave for an x-mas party and I probably had something there originally that I ment to take out.
I revise everything I write probably 5-6 times before I actually post it. It was probably something I re-wrote and forgot to take out of the post. ;)

Hahaha I do the same thing! Not just with posts but with e-mails and everything else too. I have to make sure that everything sounds just right and that the spelling is perfect. I am completely OCD about that kind of stuff. I think maybe it is because I was originally an English major in college but then I decided to change to a Chemistry major with English as my minor.

Yeah, I call it "Writers OCD."
It's a pain writing papers for school or long emails because I edit as I go instead of just writing a first draft and then editing. It makes writing anything at length a slow process.

I wasn't going to make a whole thread about this, but I sent an email to Henry Chen (tolietbowl) just to make sure he hadn't like died in a car wreck or something. He just got wiped out by that massive Genesis LE cart purchase and is getting the bank back up. He said the KOTOR kit piqued his interest.

Wow so I was right! He paid out the arse for that cartridge! I see he did bid on the KOTOR one.

I updates my wishlist, so please check it out again. I know that a number of those are available on eBay RIGHT NOW from gh0st_r1der, but the funds aren't, so they'll have to remain on the wish list for now.

I've picked up a number of plates lately, but none of them seem to be from my list so my list isn't getting smaller very fast. I only removed two: Football Manager and Halo 3 LE Console plates.

hahaha that is funny because I too have picked up about 3 or 4 plates this month and only one of them came off my wish list. :rofl:

Bumped like chicken pox.

I updated my wish list. I didn't remove any. I just marked which ones I got and which ones are on the way. A couple of them have been on the way for way too long.

Next time I have something to update, I'll take those off.
