Here are some of my favorite pickups from December 2016! In January, I'll be chilling at home for a bit, but will be traveling a lot again later in the month. Can't wait to find some cool stuff.

This sneaker pick-up was very special to me. I've been wanting a pair of DMP (Defining Moments Package) Air Jordan 11s since they first released in early 2006... I even tried camping out overnight to get a pair. This sneaker has been out of reach from my grasp for over 10 years, but finally in early Dec. I was able to complete my Air Jordan 11 collection by getting these.

More gold! These are so loud/shiny and just simply stunning. The Air Jordan 6 pinnacle in gold is just breathtaking... Everything from the sneaker itself, to the out of box experience... It just screams "WOW" !

Came back from Tokyo just in time to go to PlayStation Experience. I was able to get into the store early (I heard there were 3 hour long lines) and pick-up a few things. Love PS brand/merch! The Parappa beanie was cool... But what I saw in Japan a few days later was even more remarkable...

Thanks to the good people at Arcade Shock, I was able to get the full set of the new Hori RAP V series in red, white and blue! Do you know the inspiration behind this colored drop? You'll never guess where Hori got the idea from

Haven't picked up any amiibo in awhile but had to get these for my daughter, who also happens to love The Legend of Zelda series (like me) !

I was in Tokyo when Ryu Ga Gotoku 6 (Yakuza 6) launched, so I had to get a copy! Yakuza series of games are one of my faves. I was stoked.

In Tokyo they had a Parappa the Rapper pop up shop! :O I found out a few days after getting into Tokyo and immediately made plans with a friend to check-it out. They had so many cool things to see/buy there. I even got to play the new PS4 demo in Chop-Chop Master Onion's dojo.

A cool sticker machine let you make your own Parappa the Rapper themed name labels. So I made one with my handle in Japanese!

At the TEKKEN 7 Global Finals event I picked up some Mishima Zaibatsu wristbands & a Devil Jin shirt for my brother.

I was able to complete my collection of Clock Tower games with this copy for the Wonderswan. Also picked up the hard to find Hori Command Stick PS, first revision.

Some relics of the past. A snazzy Street Fighter II Turbo guide for Super Famicom and a copy of Arcader from who knows how long ago lol.

Picked up a new (old) Supreme beanie, a copy of one of my favorite SNES era RPGs, Crows Burning Edge for PS4 and an absolutely AMAZING Dragon Ball Z cap.

Like many people, I also got a copy of Final Fantasy XV, but I also got a Christmas card from CEO of Square Enix, Matsuda-san.

You can never have too much Castlevania in your life. <3

That boost life. My brother scored a bunch of Yeezys and got me a pair too.

My friends at Jordan Brand sent me a bunch of goodies (not pictured) but also sent me more pins; which I have a pretty healthy collection of now!

The Pokemon Company Intl. sent me a lovely holiday card and ornament.

Lord Aris of Avoiding the Puddle gifted me this awesome shirt, which is obviously a reference to the original Resident Evil game. <3

One of the HOTTEST sneakers of the year. This amazing collab between Nike and Acronym was just crazy with the attention to detail, the amount of different materials used and the overall comfort/feel. Love it!

Final boost of the year from KITH X Adidas. The first mid Ultra Boost is just lovely. If you don't know about Ultra Boost sneakers, these are hands down the most comfortable sneakers you'll probably ever stick your feet into.
That's all I got for December 2016! Have a great New Year!
Have a good one, GAF! If you'd like to follow my adventures, please follow me on twitter or instagram.
