    Now that he's unwrapped it, I can say that I got my husband the new Millenium Falcon, and he was absolutely tickled. I also got him a few smaller things, like GI Joes, a paperback he wanted, and a Godzilla t-shirt that says "I <Godzilla pic> Tokyo".
    By the way, if you have a 5 and Below near you, check it out. I found hardcover collections of both the Batman daily and Sunday comic strips from the 40s there and grabbed those as gifts, plus some pop-up books featuring Spiderman and the X-Men.
    I got some great movies this year. That was the bulk of my list since many of my relatives don't usually buy us toys. I got Sabrina, Sleeping Beauty, the Roaring Twenties, She-Ra and an Ed Wood box set. I also got volume one of Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibus, Kirby:King of Comics, The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman and the latest version of the DC Comics Encyclopedia. My husband also made sure to get me the Barbie Black Canary, which I really wanted, and a new Batman and Robin shirt with the Alex Ross version of them caught in a police searchlight.
    Another cool thing you might want to check out that someone got Nate is Bat-Manga. Because of the popularity of the 60s Batman tv show, DC hired someone to write a Batman comic in the manga style for release in Japan. Apparently they forgot all about it until someone started researching it and now an English version has been released. It's a very cool book, and I loved looking at the pictures of Japanese Batman toys.

    My wife and I really aren't exchanging gifts per se. We bought each other a few small items but really focused on the kids.

    There is a potential that I might be acquiring a Holy Grail animation cel but not sure yet. The art dealer I'm working called me with the unbelievable news and the price is fair.

    I am not holding my breath. The seller apparently wants to sell but apparently can't locate the item (not sure how one misplaces something of this nature) but the dealer assures me that the seller has it since he sold it to him originally and now I'm waiting to find out if the seller has decided not to sell it or they are going to try to up the ante in which case I will not be happy. I have worked with this art dealer for a few years and am one of his best customers so he knows not to play games like this.

    I have a bad feeling the seller is flaking out which I can live with but keeping my fingers crossed. I'll post a picture if I do happen to acquire it.

    Yeah, it sounds cliche, but I would rather have world peace and prosperity over any kind of item, but that being said...looking forward to what my wife gets me. It's never anything too much, but usually something really, really cool. If it share worthy, I'll let you guys know.

    Wishing everyone well!

Last time this happened it was a brain tumor and 30 days of horror and brain surgery. We almost lost him once already. So if his doctors opointment goes good Im a happy camper. Merry Christmas to all of you guys and girls. I hope everyone has a safe holiday.

    ^^Beautiful ring, Cat. You'll love Little Big Planet. My favorite part is playing with the costume items.
    I got my husband a toy he wants, but would never expect to get. I won't post it until tomorrow, just in case he reads this or looks over my shoulder later on.
    There were several things I put on my Christmas list this year, but no big gift that I wanted more than anything else. Other than some key comic issues and Megos, there's nothing that I wanted that desperately, so I mostly asked for movies, music, and customizing supplies. I was supposed to get Megos, but when my husband bought them at the toy show in October, he couldn't wait to find out how he did. So he spilled the beans and gave them to me early.

    And I bought myself Paul's (Merlyn) Fleischer Superman...just couldn't resist him. :D
