aw well i'll keep it anyway. most of the other raichu figures are in bad condition. even if it's a knock off it's still sealed in the box.

there is another picture of the back. it says it's a TOMY. i can't read chinese obviously hope i can find out if it's real or not.

It would be better to ask somewhere that is more knowledgeable on this stuff both on Pokemon products and Chinese. Pokemon was and is still officially released in the Chinese language so it could well be totally legitimate (but not Japanese LOL) However, I am not seeing anywhere on the box where Pokemon is written in the official Chinese way which makes me believe it's probably a Honk Kong knock off.

Here is some info here about Pokemon in China: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pokémon_in_Greater_China

Again, I am not seeing the name used on your box anywhere on there which again makes me think they have altered the name, however my Chinese google skills are not good enough really. However, if the seller advertised it as a vintage Japanese toy though you definitely got duped.

I hope it fits you better than this guy.

What's wrong with the fit? I think it looks great.

 

[Raven117]

What's wrong with the fit? I think it looks great.

Shoulders are absolutely huge on that jacket. Those shoulders are probably 4 centimeters too big on each side. Moreover, look at the length of the arms. Its at least 3 centimeters too long.

I don't know much about "street" ware, so maybe that is just the look, but from a straight up style and fit perspective, that kid looks like he found his dad's jacket in the closet and is wearing it to school.

Got the RTJ action figures and got into a new '22 Outlander. Also got some vinyl records.

I bought a 500000BTU flame wand, and hooked it up to my gas tank.



The thing was so powerfully loud during my weeding session, that my neighbours were calling over the fence demanding an explanation.

Well not right this second, but I finally bought a PS5 this week.

Feel very lucky. I got randomly selected by email by Sony to have a priority window on their direct store. I was able to purchase one that way.

I'll likely be still playing my PS4 library for a while, but being able to run some of the games better sounds great.

I'll admit. The £135 per book ASOIAF book is insane, but everything about the books are absolutely stunning. Highest quality paper, gorgeous artwork, slipcase etc. They're also massive in size with some books going over 1000 pages. They're so big that they have to be split into two volumes each.

I love the look of their products... the price always keeps me away. I've wanted the Da Vinci notebooks for a long time, but it's a lot for books. For me. But their ASOIAF editions do look fantastic.

I used the B&N Criterion Sale to jump onto their 4k releases.... that's my last spending until xmas! (narrator: it wasn't)

Uncut Gems
Menace II Society
Mulholland Drive

and this beauty...

what "shit software" ?

if you mean iTunes then yeah that is shit software but you don't need iTunes or any other software to back up iPhones. they should back up to iCloud.

anyway doesn't matter now but was just curious what you meant.

Yeah iTunes. Misses fills iCloud with dog and kid photos plus daughter using videos etc.

iTunes really doesn't run well ok windows.

Oh boy, I hope she knows what she is getting into because coming from iOS to Android will be a pain.

Volume 9 is out since last Tuesday.

She has had Android before. She's over Apple.

ok. still not seeing the problem.

tell me about it. itunes sucks but i have an iphone/ipad and no reason to ever install iTunes on my PC. iCloud backs up all my devices. you don't need it iTunes. i remember the first few iPhones needed iTunes to activate/sync but they started ditching that in favour for iCloud maybe around 10 years ago?

that said i hope she enjoys her Samsung. i don't want to come off as an Apple fanboy (was on Android for 9 years) but my experience with Samsung is not great. too confusing and bloated. great hardware but software doesn't impress me.

Bought 2 LED lamps for the kitchen, better to install them with the workers still there. Not a chance for the main ones for the living room, I will get them in December if I'm lucky, January if I'm not.

Also found a hose for the shower head in some god-forgotten part of Switzerland - the only element from the whole collection of bathroom equipment I couldn't find originally, but after making sure 19 items fit together and having that one off I just decided to fuck it, but I know it would have driven me crazy. So fingers crossed it's the right item and not just a typo on the website.

damn, I want one of those, but I'm afraid it might turn out to be an unreliable appliance.

Just received these fellas today!

 

[Ozzy Onya A2Z]

Ailynn Those are really goofy and cool. Love em.

Just got an OLED Switch. Now to find the series x and the ps5.

 

[TDiddyLive]

It has no refrigeration, just a fan. It helps keep things cool. It doesn’t actually make them cold. It even comes with a plug to use it in the car, although is it way too big for that to be practical. I’m using mine as a display piece for now, since you can turn the fan off while the top and Xbox logo on the front light up.

Congratulations, I love my PS5. Runs everything better, smoother. I was finally able to pack my PS4 up.

Though I wish Sony would get off their asses and finally fix the goddamn sleep mode bug. Keeps crashing on resume.
