Heh you asked that question at the begining of page 2. I posted the entire list of characters that are actually different in game a few posts after.

lol, that was a month ago, I cant remember what I had for lunch today! Oh well! looking forward to getting these in. Not sure when I'll have time to try it, but I'll get to it eventually. Right now I'm trying to finish up A Link Between Worlds so I can move on to Bravely Default.

Pumpkin Eye Brawl was a disappointment. He doesn't show up any different in the game.  Just regular ole Eye Brawl.  Scarlet Ninjini was really hard to find at one time.  I think they've caught up on that though.  If you have a used game store around you, you can usually get these things on the cheap.

Do any of the other variants show up in the game like the figure? or are they all the same skin in game regardless?

So after telling myself I wasn't going to put any money into this game, I ended up picking up a few figures that seemed like deals... not sure how great of a deal but i figured what the hell.

First I grabbed the Skylanders Giants Silver Dragonfire Cannon Battle Pack for 9.99 from gamestop

and the I ordered Skylanders Giants: Giants - Scarlet Ninjini and Skylanders Giants - Pumpkin Eye Brawl for a combined 26.00 at Walmart

So I still haven't play the game but I figured I'd grab a few characters before I got started.... here goes nothing lol.

I just signed up, downloading a mining package now. First foray into cryptocurrency and all that. Do you have a recommended pool I should check out?

I am currently using https://pool.dogechain.info. You'll hear a lot of people say to go with Dogehouse.org, its a great pool but its the largest one out there. with crypto currencies you dont want any one pool getting too large so its a good idea to try a mid sized pool. Just PM me if you have any other questions, dont want to thread jack this.

Meh, I just decided that I'd finally give in and try to mine dogecoins, but it's only for windows/mac. I guess I won't start mining today either!

You can mine on linux. people are doing it all the time. Head over to http://www.reddit.com/r/dogemining and they can help you out with it.

Lol, Dogecoin is a crytocurrency that can be "mined" with a GPU. if you're looking for more information stop by reddit.com/r/dogecoin.

People are selling all sorts of stuff on /r/dogemarket. I also just bought a copy of GTA V, still waiting for that to come in.

I've always spelled it out. N-E-S and S-N-E-S.   I was watching some little kid do a youtube review of some games and he kept saying the words NES and SNES. I wanted to punch the kid right in the face. The little bastard wasn't even fucking alive when that shit was out. It made me so mad!!! ARGH.

Classic Video Games / Re: Retro collecting is dying!

« on: January 15, 2014, 09:46:07 pm »

This may sound horrible, but I hope it does die. There are too many people out there collecting right now just because its "in" or "cool" causing the prices to become over inflated. I blame the hipsters, they pay too much for everything they buy! If Urban Outfitters sold video games I think we'd see Earthbound at $400 for cart only. Once the fad dies off I might be able to afford the games I want!. Sorry for my stupid and illogical rant.

Dammit, Dammit, Dammit.  I've let myself get caught up in the mania of Skylanders.  Swap Force is actually a pretty fun game.  It's harder than the other two, but it's more fun.  I think I'm enjoying it more than my son.  I'm looking for new characters and calling GameStop seeing what's in stock.  How did I let this happen?

Lol, I still haven't bought any new figures. Actually I haven't even opened the starter packs yet. I think I'll wait till the fad has passed and everyone is trying to unload them before I buy any.
