+DZ-Jay Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) Excellent lot of loot there. Greatest American Hero - what an excellent gift! So, how is everyone shaping up? Anyone not heard anything from their SS yet? Anyone not shipped their SS gift yet? I know my mailbox is very lonely right now ... I has a sad as I wait ... prince.jpg I got a package today from some stranger... I wonder what it is... I didn't get an announcement of it being on its way, so it took my by surprise! Now I'm not sure... if it is Secret Santa stuff, I shall open it on Christmas Day. If someone else sent me something, they'll have to wait for me to know it! -dZ.

ClassicGMR Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Mine came in today. I'm kind of torn between opening it or waiting until Christmas Eve. I do admit I'm not usually a patient type... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I tell my daughter there's no wrong way to put together legos. That LEGO tree with all the gifts is awesome. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClassicGMR Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) Twist MY arm... I came home today to a box on my chair. I had no idea what it was but definitely had an overseas postmark. No clue what this is!!! Wait!! AtariAge Secret Santa?!?! Could it be?!?! So I opened the box and found all this: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Malted milk balls with no soybean oil! Yeah I lost those to the wife immediately. (She has a soybean allergy). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Excellent! Always up for a new book and a comedy series I never heard of before. Woohoo! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last two were one of my favorite keychain games and what looks like a knockoff multicart. Sweet! A reason to bring out the Gameboy again! Thank you Santa. This is an excellent find. Merry Christmas to all!

segasaturn Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 (edited) I've waited a while to get my present(s). I'm extremely excited of what I got. Being an only child that goes to college, I don't have a lot of patience so I opened it up as soon as I got it! So Im very excited about what I got. I got a christmas card of course, and the ever popular(for some reason) NES t-shirt. I also got a PACMAN t-shirt that Im wearing right now as I type this. (sorry no pic). I also got 3 musketeers candy! One of my favorites. Got the mint that I tried pretty good to be honest. I also got a history-like video game console book. Im actually very excited to read it. It seems pretty cool! I also got an awesome Atari Force poster that i've already hung up on my wall. I've heard a lot about the comics though I don't have any personally. Maybe I need to pick some up to celebrate my poster anyone read them? They pretty good? Lastly I got an embroidered Atari Patch. Though to be honest, I don't know if its iron on or sew on patch. Though Its still pretty cool! Thank you to whoever got this for me. I'm extremely thankful. Edited December 17, 2015 by segasaturn 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stereo extension (two POKEY's) using Stereo Double Chaos Music Composer software by DATRI (David Spilka), based on CMC 2.0. That means nothing to me but it does say two POKEY's.

7800fan Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 That retro NES shirt seems unusually common. This is the second one I've seen with the gifted shirt and sad to say I also have this, got it about a month ago. I will laugh very hard if I get the same shirt in my box.
