Lobsterman Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 First off, photography fail. Terrible lighting, bad setup, I'm fired. Seconds, big thanks to my secret santa for this amazing haul! I got a couple of Loyal Subjects SD Transformers toys (which my baby boy already loves); a pile of my two favorite kinds of candy (and after the day I've had, I seriously wanted to just stuff all of those reeses cups in my mouth at once); two super cool customs of Genis-Vell and a very creatively kitbashed cyborg mercenary, and an awesome little trading card sketch of Galactus. Quite a nice surprise, and it really brightened up a crummy day. And quite a clever note in there to help me piece it together, JCASTICK!

homestar17 Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 So a package arrived today from my Secret Santa. There was a clue in the return address -- a hand-drawn picture: When I opened the box, here's what I found: Based on the clue (which was super-familiar) I knew it was Shogi. Thank you so very much! I love them all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyd Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Secret Santa found me yesterday with the following great gifts: That's a Venom Through the Ages set, a Creature/Dr. Reed set, loose Luke Cage and Thing (about to re-enact a lost issue of Marvel Two-In-One), and bunches of candy! And a Madman trade paperback, which has put all sorts of custom ideas in my head. All this, and a very nice Hello Kitty card thanking me for sharing all the customs I've made, which is very nice considering I haven't publicly posted a new custom in over a year. Thank you for the presents, Homestar. I love them. Especially because my kids don't want any of the candy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 (edited) Okay, I got mine today. I eagerly anticipate this time every year, and this year did not disappoint. I got 5 little packages and a big one that wasn't too hard to identify as a 2 pack. It was postmarked Deutschland, and the only person know on here from the Fatherland that signed up for SS this year is Bob Harris. I got a T700, wave 10 Nick Fury, an absolutely stuning wall base that I am pretty sure is Squall's handiwork, a SDCC TWD 2 pack, and a great custom zombie minimate! Oh, and some ponies. >_> Thanks Bob! I can only assume my special German candy was eaten before it made it in the package.

Glad it arrived and you like what you got, TM2! I totally forgot to insert any hints, but as you already pointed out, the postmark gives everything away, right. Fot the candy, I'd love to include a lot of candy, but your countries import rules forbid to include anything eatable in a package...

(Mostly because we've had several trades, tho not recently.) Actually, it was my wife who cracked the case. She looked at the card, noticed it was Hello Kitty, saw your handwriting and said my Secret Santa was female. Then that lightbulb went off over my head, I checked the return address and knew it was you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I'm a little worried... I hope my secret child is getting their gift soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I received my gift as well last Tuesday, it's just that i had a ton of exams and i didn't manage to snap some pics. I'll try to post some later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zexion_Armando Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I got my Santa gift... And I cried, for it was too glorious. Grim Reaper, who I wanted a ton, and even better, a Goblyn Queen custom. I was so happy I was jumping and cheering. My boyfriend was just giving me weird looks.

Nessex Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 wow - the gifts have all been amazing so far, but that Maddie Pryor is *really* making me kick myself for not getting in on the action this year. Nice haul Zexion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Well fellas, I just got my Secret Santa present, and it gave me a huge grin from ear to ear. I have no doubt that this is the best present I will get of any kind this Christmas. Phenomenal work, and the presentation is just perfect. It's my favorite all-time wrestler--the Macho Man Randy Savage--doing his patented top rope elbow drop! With the championship belt on the line! I feel like a little kid getting this today. Thanks go out to Blacksun, who I know because he was my Child, and a former Santa of mine. My words don't convey how freakin' awesome this is. The beard is so great, and this is his really classic look that is my favorite, from the mid-80s. This guy will be enjoying Christmas with us, as I'm going to proudly keep him on the mantle. Thanks so much BS! X 100 And of course, thanks also to Nessex, not only for organizing things, but for letting a late straggler like me get involved.

Shanester Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Macho Man is my favorite, too. I ran into him at a hotel in Chicago once. Odd guy but good to fans. Beautiful work on the custom. The presentation is very cool, also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
