    Hey all! I sincerely apologize for the postage wait (took me a bit o' time to build 500) but it makes me feel so good to see all the posts on here! You guys are so rad! As the newest PA noob, I am still learning about the pins (I have my own names for all of them) and it's fun, but nowhere nearly as fun as putting together such a special bag for our PA friends and fans. Keep posting your hauls! I am loving seeing what you all got! Oh and I'm not above theft- I hit the upstairs offices for some extra goodies for you guys! They hired me to manage the warehouse based on my retail/inventory experience, but they had no idea I was a ninja thief too. I would strike at night and creep away whispering 'for the fans'. So. Yeah.... Someone got Kikos tape measure....

    Oh and the Haiku situation. Lots of dicks. Dicks full of dicks. I voted for some imaginative dickless ones.

    I imagine the person who got the tape measure is just staring at it thinking that warehouse people are clumsy with their tools, not knowing that Kiko probably searched for this for DAYS.

    Haha - thanks merchmistress. Had I known that certain bags would be "for the fans" I would have signed up to the forums sooner! I never knew how cool this place is!

    I swear, it sounds like anything not under lock-and-key is fair game in the PA offices :D

    Yep, but also the locks and keys can go missing too.

    One day someone is going to get shipped a safe from Robert's office, and someone else will get the key. Only through forum confusion will it make sense, and everyone will go nuts wanting to know what is inside. Finally, the two are united and the door swings open to reveal:

    Yes, it's also signed on the back, and fluoro highlighted thus making it a one of a kind and invaluable :)

    PS. Under UV light, coordinates are visible to PA Megacorp Island, it's where the Oompa Loompas make the pins, and get those unnatural tans.

    Just think... I have an entire year before the next fukubukuro. (Insert evil laugh here followed by further perfecting of my ninja skills)

    PS- I told you all I am learning the pins as I go. I call that guy up there 'castle head'.

    Castle Head gets no love in these parts -- even Ginger Lookout gets invited to more pin parties...

    I personally would prefer this "joke" to stop now.

    Which is quite likely given the death rate in the Eyrewood.

    The suspense is killing us on these Haikus -- here's hoping Monday will bring a posting of the winners.

    Are those PAX 05 and 07 DVDs? I've never seen those... in a funky bag or in general, good stuffs. Prime shield is nothing to cry over either.

    Yes, I got 05, 07 and 09 PAX DVDs!
    Very excited to watch them. I think the Obey the Tube shirt is awesome too ( http://pennyarcade.wikia.com/wiki/CTS_-_Obey_the_Tube )
    Yea, I'm also super stoked to have got a Prime shield in the bag!

    I'm a ginger... And a stepchild. I own it! Reference thumbnail of 'enhanced' natural color! :biggrin:

    I don't find your use of slurs funny or justified, and would like this level of conversation to elevate.

    I'm really not sure that calling people 'ginger' is a slur, but I moreso don't really think this is the place for this kind of conversation.

    If you have a problem with a poster, using the report button is the correct thing to do. Do not then attempt to moderate the thread yourself. That is not your responsibility, and it is not your place. It is the duty of the mod staff to decide whether an issue needs further attention, behind the scenes or publicly.

    The bags were fun & I'd probably get one again. Although it was disappointing that one of the Christmas 2013 pins (elf tycho) arrived with a snapped off post. Still waiting to receive a replacement.

    I didn't end up getting a fukubukuro bag because funds didn't permit, I really want the zombicide CBT samurai... would anyone be willing to part with it ?

    I'd be eternally grateful and every zombie he kills would be in your name~!

    Hopefully it's just sitting at the post office, have to wait 'til Monday to find out...
