THE SHIPPENING

Just when everyone was most worried, assignments are out! And now that the next phase of fun has begun, I have new info for everyone!

Everyone should now be shopping for their assignments, and try your best to have your packages shipped by the first week in December. Shipping slows waaaaaay down during the holiday season, so get those packages out early to ensure they get there by Christmas!

To protect yourself from false Grinching accusations (who would do such a thing?) you can send me the tracking info or a picture of the package before you send it. This is important because Grinches will be put on a list that I will give to the Secret Santa organizer next year, so that you may never ruin our fun again! Mwahahahaha

Lastly! If you have any questions for your assignment or comments for your Santa, send them to me, I will be doing my best to quickly rely them so that you may communicate.
>>
>>5285442
Confirmed, I got an email from Santa.

IT'S HAPPENING
>>
>>5285447
whats the best day to ship them out?
>>
>>5285455
Check your postal service website. They should have Christmas deadlines listed somewhere
>>
>>5285455
depends on your shipping method. I say get it done if possible before dec 13th
>>
I'm torn I could easily hit $30+ and get them something good but I feel like just ONE thing isn't exciting. I want to fill it up with funny gag gifts and other cool little things.

It's like
1 good figure
vs.
1 or 2 decent figures, cool keychains/posters/cups/knick knacks and plushies, blind bags.

I just feel like a care package is more fun to open than a single gift.

Well don't put yourself in the poor house. I went way over the minimum but I'm also decently well off. I'm not rich or anything but I can just put off buying a couple new video games or something.

How the fuck am I supposed to know what you already have or not. Don't complain if you got shitty things you don't like, at least you could have send me your general interests...

Emailed Santa but figured I would ask here incase you see this before he forwards as he's a busy guy.

Are you a grill?

Do you prefer girly items from the lines you listed or it doesn't matter?

Yes. Just look for boxes with Kylo on upper right corner
>>
>>5285696
what is something that is sought after?
>>
>>5285701
Falcon. Maybe X-wing and troop transport
>>
>>5285701

For lego? The only really sought after stuff is super expensive either because of rarity or because it's a $200+ premium set.

If someone asked for a lego set just get them whatever you think looks cool and doesn't have an ewoks
>>
>>5285704
>>5285706
Alright cool, thanks guys
>>
>>5285708
If someone asked for Lego without specifying, contact them and ask for more info. Some people can't stand some themes and sets

they just asked for ep7 star wars kits

What are you, 12?
>>
>>5285724
Welcome to Lego, enjoy your stay.

Yeah, that's one of the big problems with Lego. Especially characters that are sought after or are in one set only (there's a lot of those in TFA) can cost pretty penny. Especially the licensed stuff.

But such is life. I'm very much into SW and I don't think I have single Vader or Emperor
>>
>>5285727
Was going to throw an ewok in just for shit's and giggles, but holy shit that price for such a small piece of plastic. I thought wh40k had a crazy price tag
>>
>>5285735
Let me guess. You checked Amazon or Ebay.
If you only need one or two figs, Bricklink is generally your best bet

They asked for BJD and Disney stuff.

Disney wouldn't be issue, if I could find things other than Frozen and Funko.
>>
>>5285797
They only got sent out really late last night. Some of us can't be constantly funposting on /toy/ every waking moment
>>
>>5285808
>I can't find the stuff Anon asked for and I'm not even sure where I should look for them

This is why we should have been paired with people who have similar tastes.

Ouch, sorry mate I have no clue for either of those.

>>
>>5285814
http://www.disneystore.com

You might have one local to you. I've seen them in malls and such.

If someone is a Disney Parks fan a lot of them are really into Haunted Mansion stuff but they have a wide range. Playsets, dolls, plushies, etc
>>
>>5285821
Just continue to diversify, get multiple things in a range and you have a better chance of getting something they may like.
>>
>>5285822
NECA is a good bet for kaiju
>>
>>5285822

Check the generals, the toy photography thread has some nice pieces too
>>
>>5285814
if you search in ebay classic disney toys you get some nice things, you could also visit any close Disney Store, or search things for montion pictures, instead of just disney

Wish I had put some on my wishlist.

"I don't have a wish list. I like Lego."

>>5285848
I know haha, I'll probably find and pick up something for myself in this endeavor.

I can't believe some of you Transformers guys are like 'yeah KOs are fine', but to each their own (my guy listed a couple that have really expensive normal counterparts)
>>
>>5285856
Grab some Mixels. Fairly small cheap sets, the pieces are great for reuse.
>>
>>5285843
Don't be paranoid anon, the person who dropped your name isn't even the recipient if your gifts, there is no reason to drop the name if you are going to grinch
>>
>>5285642
I havent been either, but are we suppose to be namedropping people?
>>
>>5285814
I think I'm the one who asked you this. If you asked about the disney infinity stuff then yes It's me.

If that's the case don't bother too much about it santa has sent you a update more figure related, you can look for this instead. Thank anyway !
>>
>>5285856
I got one even more vague, don't worry. Gonna head down to Toys R Us one day and just grab one or two things that look cool. Maybe toss in some MLP stuff for a laugh.

>>5285869
It's pretty reassuring.
Really no harm done if you keep it to first names and maybe cities.

Honestly I went into this fully expecting to get grinched anyway, I just like hunting around for stuff people ask for. Wish I knew about other boards doing this stuff, would have signed up for them too if I wasn't too late for them.
>>
I guess if we're namedropping people, Octavio in Chicago is covered. Expect dragon dildos and firearms with their serial numbers filed off. And maybe I'll toss in my old MCAT study books for good measure.
>>
Would anyone be too offended if they just received gifts straight from Amazon?
>>
>>5285900
I would be a bit disappointed, but it's the thought that counts
>>
>>5285900
This is what I did. I have amazon prime so the stuff ships for free. It's a little impersonal I guess, but I put the money I would have spent on shipping into thier present.
>>
>>5285874
Sweet, this'll make my life much easier.

I assure you that you'll get something cool.

Oh, and now that we're here, do you have any allergies?
>>

Just pineapple. Thank you for all the concern I can't wait !

Probably strongly suggested you don't unless you really have no other option, this stuff is set up long in advance of Christmas so people can wrap and personalize stuff and send it directly

I have work to finish, but I'll post it in 1h maximum. Stay tuned.
>>
>>5285947
Everyone has been assigned and emailed their recipients.

Don't worry, people who haven't seen their name dropped. I haven't seen mine either. Last year I never received an email from my Santa and never saw anything in the threads regarding me but still got a nice personal gift.

Don't add worry to your life looking for assurance of your gift, it will come. Just enjoy the threads and the Christmas spirit!

I just don't see the point, it's not like I can display the wrapped box. Just adds more unnecessary waste material.

In that case we should avoid name dropping because it makes a lot of people feel excluded and creates a feeling of being grinched.

Ayyy that's me. Sorry if my list is generic. If you want me to give some more specific stuff I can give Santa a better list.

Rex, if you're reading this, you gave me so many options that I'm having a hard time narrowing it down! But I'll get 'er done.
>>
>>5286461
Haha, it's all good! Already got you a thing or two, I just hope you like the stuff I ended up picking.

Gonna try and get out to the local nerd shop this week to embellish the gift.

I'd be super disappointed if I got something directly from amazon. If you're just going to buy and ship directly from amazon why bother? I can buy myself things directly from amazon

Just getting an amazon package doesn't feel special at all. With all the people doing extra stuff, taking time to wrap things and other stuff it just feels shitty.

If that's the attitude some people have maybe next year someone should organize an amazon wishlist secret santa for those minimal effort possible people instead.
>>
Just got BP from MI.
>>
>>5286452
I got namedropped :D Thanks anon, you've made my night
>>
>>5286521
You'll take what you get man
Some people don't have the time and resources to get something shipped to their house or get to a toy store and ship it out.
Between my shitty job, college, and buying for the family, the person I'm gifting should be happy they're getting anything, no matter how I got it to them.
Besides, amazon has a pretty swell gift wrapping option, along with the ability to add letters and shit.
>>
>>5286547
Fuck those are so cute.
>>
>>5286547
>>5286551
Damn they are adorable, I don't even know what I'd do with them though.
>>
>>5286550
>You'll take what you get man

Or sell it for all the care the person sending it gives.

>the person I'm gifting should be happy they're getting anything

Why?

You shouldn't have signed up if you're not going to give a shit.
>>
>>5286558
I think you're being a little unnecessarily harsh.
>>
>>5286558
Clearly I give a shit when I'm shelling out sixty some odd dollars for a stranger.
Forgive me for wanting to do that as conveniently as possible.
God damn.
>>
>>5286562

I don't think so. I care a lot about the secret santa, someone being selfish and saying things like "the person I'm gifting should be happy they're getting anything" is fucked up.

Yeah, I get not having money or time but then don't sign up when most people are actually putting effort into it.
>>
>>5286076
I got you, m8. I noted the C/O on the address.
>>
>>5286570
Gotta use the resources available man. Shouldn't matter how you get what you get, so long as it's a decent, well thought out gift.
>>
>>5286583

There's been people who said they didn't have much money to go past the minimum but would be including crafted items in theirs.

Sending directly from amazon just seems really shitty to me. Hopefully whoever is doing that gets paired with someone who doesn't care because if I got that I wouldn't even want it.
>>
>>5286592
Even if it was an exceptional gift that goes above and beyond what you would expect given the 30 dollar minimum?
Cause there's a lot of hype shit on amazon, yo.
>>
>>5286598
My parents live in Alaska, so we usually just Amazon gift each other for Christmas.

Adam S. in Ohio, won't have the cash in the bank until Thursday, but I've got my list of shit together, and I think you'll be pleased.
Hope you will, at least.
>>
>>5286598

I always expect /toy/ soldiers to go above and beyond, though the actual monetary value isn't particularly important.
>>
>>5286609
My guy has a pretty straightforward wish list, so I feel the need to go above and beyond by getting him like, over half of it.
>>
>>5286470
Rex in WA?
>>
>>5286615

Mine had only specific items so I'm planning on creating kind of a themed box around what I imagine his tastes are. I think I'll write SATURDAY MORNING FUN BOX on it

Hope it's a really hefty one.

I'll send one to you anon. My treat.

There was another Rex mentioned in the previous thread - >>5285395 - unless that's just >>5286624 again.
>>
>>5286647

Funny guy

I don't actually want one anyway, but it'd be funny enough that I wouldn't be mad if I did get one.
>>
>>5286648
Yep that was me, I wanted to post in here too since that was pretty close to the end of the thread.
>>
>>5286637
joke is on them I wouldn't mind a Dragon Dildo
>>5286631
specially tennie weenie they should look specially funny with toys
>>
>>5286578
you are fantastic, I hope the list doesn't give you too much trouble, as I told santa that's mostly stuff I lost when I had to move last year so if I get something off there great if not hopfully it gives you some ideas, I'll be happy with whatever you come up with (lol let's combat some of the negativity that's popped up in the thread :)
>>
>>5286623
oh that's a good idea, my guys likes Nintendo stuff. . . .hmmmm maybe an old school 80's theme lol

Yeah it was fun putting it together. I don't want to go into too much detail but someone might be getting a VHS tape, candy and sugary breakfast cereal in their box.
>>
>>5286672
I wish I got someone who liked Nintendo stuff!

I don't know anything about my anons interests, otherwise I'd do a cool themed gift too.
>>
>>5286693
Think we can help?
Or is there like, a general for their interests?
>>
>>5286700
>>5286693

There's a nintendo general but nintendo is quite broad.

If they asked for anything else try and cross reference things to get a better idea of what they might like.

I'm also a /vr/ citizen so I can try to help if you want
>>
>>5286708

I meant I wished my anon liked Nintendo because I'm a Nintendo fan and I could pick out gifts for them easily.

>>5286700
It's anime/manga stuff mostly.

I have a RG Zeta, HG Guncannon, Robot Damashii Belial and Glassgow, Monsterarts Alien Big Chap and that's it really. Never found any PR Jaegers locally and kaijuu is more like a secondary interest. But thanks for asking, I'm fine with surprises as long as it's robut related.

Tis' the season, I'm actually more looking forward to ship my anon stuff he'll like than receiving myself

I'd start with s.h. figarts or neca I guess

I'm not that familiar with s.h. figarts but my assignment asked for one and it looks pretty decent

maybe avoid statues unless they specifically asked

you could also get them a hug pillow

Oh I'm going to GIFT THE SANTA out of Someone. Star Wars away!

Alex in NZ, I'm not going to let you down. Do you like robots or plastic butts? Gotta make sure I get you something you like.

I got my anon nearly $100 worth of stuff from amazon and had it shipped direct to their house. Im such an asshole right?

>>5286777
Lucky seven trips confirm that shipping from Amazon does not make you an asshole and that other anon needs to quit their overreacting.
>>
>>5286777

I'm someone who appreciates personal touches and thoughtfulness over pricetags but I have to say you've definitely gone out of your way to try and make it special for them, even if you can't make it personal.
