| I bought some things yesterday and a little bit today! First off, I completed my Penguin costume for the moat boat race tomorrow with a top hat, a suit from a charity shop and a bit of chain from B&Q to make a monocle. I'm mostly impressed with myself for remembering to do a bow tie! - Oswald Cobblelilly:
While in Glastonbury searching for those bits, I popped into Morrisons only to stumble across the first four volumes of Pokémon Adventures for £4 a pop, which is a crazy bargain. I've read the first arc through online means, but I'm keen to enjoy it in nice paper form. And just now (this is my lunch break from work) I popped into Waterstones and picked up a box set of the Harry Potter books all 7 Harry Potter books individually because that was cheaper for some reason. Lots of 90s nostalgia to read through! |

| He was a mug.
Sonic and the Secret Rings is a secret really good game.
Mario Strikers is a laugh. I wonder if the online still works? I expect a couple of us still have it. |

Whilst I do still have it, I'm fairly sure they've turned the servers off... for all Wii and DS games, in fact. |

| Yeah Sonic was good when I first got it. Is the online still up as I'm sure read somewhere that Wii games were starting to have there servers turned off.
Mainly I bought for trading but none are likely to drop in price, I may keep around for Wii let's plays. |

| It does look cool but not worth £25, I've contacted Nintendo saying it was open and damaged |

| If it came via the Post Office, they do sometimes open things they think look suspicious - it happened to me when an Internet friend sent me a present with a sticker of his avatar, a scowling baby, on it. If not... that's bad. |

| Spider-People, ASSEMBLE!Also can I mention how incredibly badass the UK covers for Mistborn are? Because they are so cool! |

| Spider-verse is really good, especially if you're like me and you get a kick out of all the subtle Spider-Man variations over the years.
Of the two I've bought so far, the Mistborn covers are lovely and stand out really well from other fantasy stuff. |

| Two Mistborn books? I take it that means you've got Well of Ascension on the to-read pile when it reaches the top of the cue? And yeah, looking forward to seeing all the crazy cameos Spider-verse is going to have, some I'm familiar with, some not, but it's all looking very awesome. |

| You assume correct! It's currently behind Embed With Games, Career of Evil and Halo: Broken Circle, though I'll probably be reading Philosopher's Stone soon as well. |

| Finger's crossed that the seller dispatches this: I just snapped up a copy of Enchanted Folk And The School Of Wizardry on DS for £6 on Amazon, which is a fraction of the price that I've usually seen it go for.
I also picked up some more Animal Crossing amiibo for a few quid each. |

I got this today, total disappointment https://youtu.be/yU_A55XPMBU I watched your video before mine arrived and quite glad I did, the surprise of how much of a letdown it was definitely softened by knowing what I was getting. Luckily my book wasn't damaged but you can tell it's of poor quality. However that mug is amazing. 10/10 MUST BUY!!! |

| Were getting free t-shirts (shipping not included) from Nintendo, if you bought the box.
The mug is cool and maybe worth £8 but the rest is pants. |

| This. Really wanted the one with the Captain America cover but of course they'd sold out. Three Iron Men left... pah. |
