Would it be possible to gift each other digital stuff? I'd love to join in but international shipping is hella steep.

Poll: do you guys think there are enough people signing up to warrant a region list? Like USA, EUROPE, AUSTRALIA, ASIA each with their own dedicated shipping lists?

I'd sign up if there was.

DVDs or Blurays would be cool. Shirts would be cool too. Feel free to send me 18+ stuff as long as it isn't gross. Not music. Although I do like building models I already have most of what i want, so probably not that either. I doubt anyone would do this, but no food/edible stuff either. That includes alcohol.
I like video games, platformers and rpgs mostly. Nintendo games especially.
I'm an M in size, although that fluctuates a lot between countries. Region 2 dvds

Will make an unboxing post soon

When I checked the mail today I had a mysterious package waiting for me!



How exciting!

Inside it I found...



Two envelopes and newspaper hiding greater treasures!



Inside the envelope labeled DROYER is a nice handwritten poem. After several attempts and a little help I think I managed to decipher your handwriting :cheeky:

Inside the envelope were some super cool anime and Dinosaur Comics stickers!



Sup?

Digging deeper I found the girl promised in the letter



And it's a sweet fig of Ginrei from Giant Robo! A super good anime that you, the person reading this, should definitely watch.





Further inside was this mysterious dvd cage, which seems to have a girl version of me on the backside? very strange.



And this was what inside. Consider it done.



And finally a picture of me holding my gifts.

Thank you, mysterious benefactor(nowhere did it state who my SS was, but I have a theory)! This was super cool, and I promise to find Ginrei a good home amongst my robots! Also I'm sorry if i was difficult to find a gift for, I realized afterwards that I basically wrote "don't do this, don't do that" in my post. I really appreciate this, and I hope you have a happy holiday!

Here's the overly long unboxing of the stuff Droyer sent me. We've eaten all the sweeties (the soft santa things were great), and drank the JULMUST with an indian takeaway the night the stuff arrived. Really enjoyed reading GITS as well - interesting to see how it was different to the films and series.

I've had to hide the little Mamegoma thing from my cats because they bodyslam it whenever they see it.



Cheers, droyer!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! To be honest i feel a bit bad about getting you a manga instead of something more creative. I was hoping i could find a small tachikoma toy or something, but no luck.

Also, what did you think of the julmust? I'd love to hear a non-swede's perspective

I was very happy with the gifts.

I liked the julmust - the malt and spices give it a nice festive taste, although it's a bit too sweet for me to have frequently. I suppose the closest thing I've had to it would be root beer. It would go well with rum.

On the wiki article it said that some people buy it in glass bottles and age it for a year - have you done that?

I have not, nor was I aware that was done
