The Christmas Fallout - 2019!

Happy Holidays, guys. Hope you had a great one. Christmas this year was kind of a rush, honestly. Thanks to a late Thanksgiving launching us straight from one season to another without much delay, it just kinda came and went.

Still, despite the strange holiday it's been, I was treated VERY well by my loved ones in the gift department. So welcome to the annual Christmas Fallout post, where I share my haul and you guys can join in by listing yours in the comments. Let's get the holly jolly started!


Toy Story 4 (4K Combo) (Target Limited Edition)
Spider-Man: Far from Home (4K Combo)
Teen Titans GO! to the Movies (Blu-ray Combo)
M.U.S.C.L.E. Street Sharks Sets
$20 Nintendo eShop Card
$10 Regal Gift Card
Peanut Butter M&Ms
Crispy M&Ms 
Other Candy

The stocking filling really hit it out of the park this year, with the Street Sharks M.U.S.C.L.E. figure sets being an absolute highlight. (These have actually only been found in the wild at Five Below stores so far, but you can also easily snag them up on Ebay.) Regardless of their bizarre, out-of-nowhere release, I HAD to have the first official Street Sharks toys in years.

Rounding things out are movies, eShop cash, Regal cash (perfect for Sonic in February), assorted candy, and both of my favorite (in production) flavors of M&Ms.



Luigi's Mansion 3
Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered (Switch)
Pokemon Shield
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Complete Edition (Switch)
Spyro: Reignited Trilogy (Switch)
Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair (Switch)
River City Girls (Switch) + Original Game Soundtrack + Limited Run Trading Card

GAMES! Quite a variety this year, including double the ghost-busting and monster-raising. (Thank you Switch for giving me a good opportunity to finally pick up Hacker's Memory.) Also looking forward to experiencing the original Spyro games in full after being more casual with them during the old PS1 days. (Can't beat more 3D platformers on Switch!)


Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Set (Neon Red/Neon Blue)
Digimon Fusion: Season 1 (DVD)
Digimon Fusion: Season 2 (DVD)

More Joy-Cons to increase potential play options and the last of the Digimon DVDs I still needed to pick up. (With the exception of the out-of-print Digimon the Movie.) Interested in rewatching Fusion, as I remember feeling it was just "okay" by the end after keeping up with airings week-to-week. Maybe binging all of it together years later will give me a fresh perspective. (I also got these now because I was afraid they'd go out of print soon and I'd be screwed. Conveniently, the show also left Netflix this month.)



Power Rangers: The Ultimate Visual History 
Power Rangers: Shattered Grid Deluxe Edition 
Go Go Power Rangers Volume 1
Go Go Power Rangers Volume 2
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Lost Chronicles Volume 1
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Lost Chronicles Volume 2
Power Rangers: The Psycho Path 

A big theme of my wishlist this year was playing catch-up with Power Rangers' 25th Anniversary LAST year, so half of my stuff is PR-related. 

Been meaning to get ahold of the Visual History book ever since it was first announced. Looking forward to learning an interesting tidbit or two before sliding it on the shelf next to my TMNT one.

With the exception of The Psycho Path, this year's batch of comics is dedicated to one thing: SHATTERED GRID. The first two Go Go trades and the Lost Chronicles volumes help set the stage while the Deluxe Edition collects the whole event in one beautiful hardcover book. This is one that I CANNOT WAIT to dig into later.


Power Rangers Lightning Collection Lost Galaxy Red Ranger/In Space Psycho Red Ranger
Power Rangers Lightning Collection Magna Defender 
Power Rangers Lightning Collection In Space Psycho Blue Ranger

Wouldn't be a PR-heavy haul without some more Lightning figures! Especially happy about this particular selection, as I finally get to own figures of the sick Psycho Ranger suits and one of my favorite classic seasons, Lost Galaxy, even gets some love! (This is the first Magna Defender-related toy I've owned that actually has a cape.)


Tomy Metal Sonic Comic Pack
Power Rangers Lightning Collection Lord Zedd

My Sis and her husband got me these. Lord Zedd joins my Lightning figure haul with his best plastic representation yet and a couple of alright Metal Sonic figures present the REAL prize: an exclusive printed comic book featuring official translations of the adorable 25th Anniversary Sonic Channel webcomics. (Featuring stories starring everyone from Storm the Albatross to Eggman Nega!)


$20 Nintendo eShop Card

Finally, my favorite cousin got me some more eShop cash so I can prepare for Smash Ultimate DLC: Year 2.

(Also got some cash from my Grandma that I've already spent, so look forward to seeing just what I bought with it in the new year.)

How was everything for YOU guys this year? I'd love to hear about your own personal Christmas Fallout in the comments below.
