runswithscissors Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Since we're talking about NECA I thought I'd share this: A few of my unopened NECA figures http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc405/ucancallmeDuckey/Duckeys/006-1.jpg probably best to leave them unopened considering what a pain in the arse it is to get them opened haha (i totally hate those type of packaging on things, i cant cut them open without ripping my fingers up). and for some reason the figures are well tied in, i mean do they think their going to escape or summat?

Ugh, I hate that too. So many times I hurt my fingers trying to open those type of packaging. Especially if it's an extra controller, God forbid you make them easy to open!

runswithscissors Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 glad i'm not the only one that has this problem... they really should ban them. my headphones were the worst coz it was so small and nowhere to get scissors into cut it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCanCallMeDuckey Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Ugh, I hate that too. So many times I hurt my fingers trying to open those type of packaging. Especially if it's an extra controller, God forbid you make them easy to open! I don't think I have ever cut myself opening the plastic packaging. The key is to start at the bottom (I prefer to the right side since I am right handed) then proceed to cut up and all the way around to the other side, with large sharp scissors, leaving the bottom still connected then you can open the plastic like a book and easily remove the contents. Twist ties don't tend to give me a problem either and I am glad they use them to secure the figures in place, it helps to prevent the figure from moving in shipping and possible breakage. Now don't get me wrong, I am not saying I like the plastic packaging it is very much the opposite, I am merely saying that knowing how to properly open them can help with frustration. I much prefer colorful cardboard resealable packaging for pretty much everything, since it can be pretty to display in the box and I have the ability to remove the item play with it and then put it back in the package for safe keeping and display. Sometimes if the figures in the plastic packaging are not to hard to come by I like to buy two so that I can open one to play with and keep one packaged to hang on the wall for display.

AmbaLaBamba Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Just picked up the Connor: The Hunter statue from my local GAME for just over £23 after using my GAME Reward points. Not bad as I've been look around for this item and on eBay it's rather expensive and ForbbinPlanet sell it for around £29.99 I believe last time I checked, so very happy. A early birthday present to myself! Will post picks later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a cancer survivor (almost 28 years old) and the last almost 2 years I've been fighting it and recovering from it. It only let me appreciate what I have so much more and also made me realize life is too short to waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only let me appreciate what I have so much more and also made me realize life is too short to waste. A buddy of mine found out he had liver cancer when he was 20 (never touched alcohol in his life). Got that removed but it came back again about a year later. seems like that was fixed then they found some in his lungs and about 6 months ago they found some in his brain. He is fine now but still getting scans regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you also not come across many other Zelda stuff? Would like you to complete the set with a Zora/Deku! You also don't have a Ganondorf, right?

Currently the ones I am missing that I care about are: Skull Kid, Green Tunic Link, and Sheik. They just released a Ganondorf so I should have it within a month or so.
