What Did You Get From Santa (or Bought Yourself) This Year?

I got Burt's Bees lip balm and a Doctor Strange bobblehead. Hoping to acquire some TOMY/Trackmaster items soon. Maybe some modeling supplies so I can construct an engine shed? That'd be neat..

For a moment I read that as BUTT's BEE's LIP BALM and nearly sprayed my laptop with coca-cola lol!!

You mentioned 'modelling supplies' how about using Lego instead? You can produce some pretty cool buildings these days and the basic bricks can be bought in 'classic' boxes these days so its not so difficult to do self-builds.

I'm thinking of trying to build a 'knapford' type station out of Lego at some point

I got some Tomy Tracks, Green Tunnel, Sodor Fuel Wagon, Sodor Mail Wagon, 6 Talk n Action Tracks, 1994 Tomy Percy and Station without Caroline Maybe Later I got Talk n Action Percy because the Seller that sells me that, he's make a Mistake and send me Normal Percy instead of Talk n Action Percy

Nice little collection there bud

I didn't get anything for myself . I did buy some expensive stuff for my significant other

Which of course scores brownie points so there are less complaints in 2017 when you buy that 'must have' item on occassion

Santa brought me nothing...but my boys? Geez spoiled rotten. The little got a Chuggington (Wilson) case that rolls! Take and play engines fit great in it. Loads of take n play engines (Victor, Harvey, streamlined Thomas, Ashima and Ivan). And Glow Charlie. The older got the Wooden Railway Thomas 2pack, Glow Percy, Trackmaster Luke (w/remote), TM glow in the dark tracks and a straight pieces pack(3.99!). Santa got them both a Hot Wheels 6 lane raceway. My little discovered trains, nascars, hot wheels and MINIS roll very nicely down it also!! As for LEGOS all he wanted in the end was MINECRAFT all Minecraft. It's covering my dining room table.....Merry Christmas!!!

Nice one! Lucky kids it seems, I'm not sure if I've got a handle on this whole minecraft thing, it seems to me to major backward step. The graphics on the computer game seem to be using all that modern day processing power to produce a simulation of an old ZX Spectrum in terms of graphics. The games also seem similarly 'retro' and primitive in the extreme. Maybe I'm just missing the point, or having been around when 'retro' gaming was cutting edge I've just had my fill of it already lol!
