Coloring Fluttershy

I got my hands on a My Little Pony coloring book and I just couldn't resist scanning a few pictures of my favorite pony out of the mane six and do a little coloring.....

 

....which then lead to this:

We wants it, we needs it

Even tough it still October, the stores are already bringing out their Christmas decorations and whatnot up for sale. As I was walking past an aisle where the store clerks were busy shelving all the Christmas candies and something caught my eye. A box of chocolates with the Star Wars logo and a big picture of a Stormtrooper helmet!

Yeah, I bought some n_n' I thought it was pretty neat that there is a small window on the box were you can see the two different kinds of chocobits this box contains, white chocolate for the Stormtrooper helmets and milk chocolate for the Darth Vader ones. Kinda unnecessary, but right beside the window there is a picture of the content printed on the box, I guess they had to fill the empty space with something, right? I'm kinda wondering what it was doing among the Xmas candies anyway when there is nothing that explicitly says "Christmas" on it. Because people are not allowed to buy boxes of chocolate unless it is the Holidays?

 

I was surprised the chocolate tasted pretty decent! It wasn't great but it certainly was nothing bad either. I was expecting something horrible like in some cheap Advent calendars were the so called "chocolate" tastes just plain awful. Buy a couple of these and you got yourself a makeshift calendar that will last four days past Christmas eve!
Note! This box of chocolates in now officially the first Star Wars merchandise that I've seen that has the "Disney" logo on it. Suddenly, cold chills are running down my spine. Fortunately it doesn't say "Disney's Star Wars" at least.

Other recently purchased SW merch that were on sale are "activity fun pack" i.e. a coloring pad and some stickers, a notebook, clone trooper keyring, 2 metal boxes (the Clone Wars trading card game, series 3 &4)

Finally, my unofficial Darth Maul keyring, that I ordered from one of those businesses that print your photos to mugs, canvases, books, cards or whatever you want.

Assassin's Creed 3: Liberation glitches

I've encountered more glitches in this game than in any other in recent memory, and here are two that were actually caught on "tape".

 Airborne canoe
The one time I actually wanted to use a canoe and it's up in the air, unreachable. Nothing beats swimming in alligator infested waters, right?

 Swimming on land
Jumping down from a tree branch into shallow water at the bayou caused for some reason Aveline to do the swimming animation on dry land, unfortunately this didn't get filmed. As soon as I let go of the controller to get my camera she got stuck in this floating state and I was unable to get her moving again.
Aveline de Grandpré used SPLASH! ...... But nothing happened!

Lego Star Wars Sith Nightspeeder

A while a go, I couldn't believe my luck when I found this at s flea market. From where I was  standing I could only see the back of the box.  First thing that caught my eye was of course the Lego and Star wars  logos and when I took a closer look, that's when I saw them. Holy sh*t!

 

Lego minifigures of Asajj Ventress and Savage Opress (+ Anakin Skywalker)! I rushed over to the table where it was and picked it up. I rarely find anything Ventress or Opress related merchandise. For a moment, I was in heaven...... until I noticed what was written on the piece of tape "no figs, only spacecraft" (complete)". The disappointment was grave.

After a lot back and forth going about if I would still buy it or not. I decided to take a chance. I was a little skeptical, if the minifigs aren't there how could I be sure the whole speeder would be in there? And what do you know, I was right. During the unboxing you could tell right away that some parts were missing from the bike. "Complete" my ass.

The speeder was partially ready built in the box, but I broke it apart and rebuilt it (fortunately the manual was not missing! ) to get a clearer vision on how many parts it was actually missing. 16 pieces and 10 stickers.

Later, at a different market I found some bags of random Lego that I thought I could use as spare parts for the Nightspeeder. The colors and the blocks didn't perfectly match the ones I needed, but at least a little bit more "complete". No idea to which series the spare parts vehicles belong to, they kinda look like something out of Star Wars universe but I'm not sure. How the heck do you even research this stuff?
