PAX SECRET BOBCATS 2: BOBCAT HARDER 2013

mysticode

Bobcat has delivered gifts!

A nice card!

All the stuffs! The polo is a Black Mesa Labs shirt.

A close up. Beyond the polo, there is a full set of League of Legends weapon keychains, an Enterprise bottle opener, and Battlestar Galactica ensign level insignias.

Close up of the League of Legend weapon keychains.

Thanks Super Sekrit Bobcat! My geeky side has been quenched.

Aussie Ben

I don't know if this is a present from my bobcat or not! An Amazon package turned up today containing this:

Thank you very much if it was! I love the new TMNT series, and seeing an adorable mini SUPER ANGRY Shredder fills me with glee!

If it wasn't, then some stalker is sending me Lego, which is not really a bad thing I guess.

My Bobcat has arrived.

What's this? A wild Box has appeared in your mailbox...

Let us see what is inside!

Thank You, BombClancy, for the lovely bobcat!

edited to remove your address from the picture

contrefait

Contre bad. I should have checked my mail box more often. I found a little lonely bobcat waiting for me today. Who knows how long he was waiting out there all alone and possibly getting who knows what done to him as my coworkers looked on with envy.

So tonight I opened him up and what should I find... but a really weird decal.

So on my lappy it goes and I am quite pleased with my tentacoo wape laptop.

Thanks SmallLady. You really fancied it up for me.

edit:
And then I wake up this morning and through the magic of internets I have another present.

Yay.

Moe Fwacky

A wild bobcat arrived today at work. Good thing too, since I fly out to Cleveland in the morning.

Thanks @clickpictony! Now I just have to figure out where this thing will live, work or home

My gift is orchestrated in three parts. I can post the first one here or wait until all three arrive...

Kiss Me GoodBye

I received my bobcats from GermanCityGirl!! I would have posted sooner but thought it was from reddit Secret Santa! haha!

Note: I don't know how to make spoiler tags.

Hyperbole & a Half!!


I my mini Squidward. He's since been opened and is my new desk buddy

Quintious

Bobcat landed! Eldritch Horror from my New York-based Cardboard Tube Fairy. My shame that I ever doubted is great!

zerzhul

I received what I have been told is a replacement bobcat. It may be a replacement, but it's pretty awesome if I do say so myself!

I was also gifted a year's subscription to Angie's List, which should come in very handy as a homeowner.

Thanks oh most secretive one!

Lady Lilybell

A wild, loud bobcat appeared at my house.
*Lils, Let me in!*

I escorted it into my house and helped in onto the dining room table. He seemed a little sick and spit out this pile of goodies.
*I love the wrapping paper*

Well, let us start opening presents.
I got a round package. I mean David Bowie's package.


Gift two and three were "Shiny".

*My brother has already taken and read this the minute I opened it.*

To send my mind into space.


The last piece is a forums pin.


Thank you very much Bobcat!

cookiekrush

I'm guessing this is from the great Tube, as I didn't sign up for any other secret santa!

A big box awaited me after a long day of work...

A large Minnie greeted me, not a scary bobcat! A chocolate spread and awesome comic books. I've never heard of The Last Man. Anything Serenity makes me so giddy. Then, several wrapped presents awaited.

Yay, Mickey and Minnie goodies!!

And the blanket laid out, with my pup keeping warm with it.

Thank you Bobcat Secret Santa! I wish to know who you are to properly thank you!! You made this girl very happy with Mickey and Minnie goodies.

So, I arrive home late last night from a Christmas visit to the in-laws … and I spy a strange parcel on my kitchen counter. Being a late hour I decide to wait until morning to better assess this. Assuming it to be a bobcat I am naturally steeling myself for the opening as being left by the mailman on the front step in the bitter cold is sure to make this one feisty feline.

I cautiously open knowing I am poorly equipped for what may spring forth. Instead I am faced with a smile and two brightly wrapped packages …

With each is a brief note …

and inside …

Package #2 …

and inside …

Two wonderful gifts for a lover of scotch (which I most assuredly am). I had just taken my father to a whisky show in late November and as such these were a perfect choice. I really appreciate it Sekrit Bobcat … (thx Kevin). Cheers !!!!!!

So my amazing bobcat ysterath Got me a Boss boiling flask and a Totoro back pack!

Dearest bobcat victim, know that I am so sorry that I didn't get your package to you sooner!
I had somethomg custom being made for you but it fell through.

Know that I have tried to make up for it with throwing in more goodies for you.

I will post pictures of my recieval tonight ♡

zerzhul

Skelevader, Quintious, MagicSwordKing, and Jim Sharkmagic have all posted that they have received presents in at least one of the threads. I thought Skelevader did pictures but I think the other 3 have not as of yet. I have links to them in the gift chains.

zerzhul

Oh, Manic2K also posted that he got a gift but didn't have a camera handy or something like that.

parabola

Oh my god... After what seemed like forever i'm finally able to get these pics online!

Shall we start?

A package! "Rattles"... I can confirm, it did rattle.

D&D Clue... is apparently a thing? How cool.

Theros Holiday Gift Box... Tell your Bobcat/Santa you're into MTG, they'll deliver. Can always use things to store cards and more boosters for drafto.

But wait, there's more! Boosters, that is.

I would be lying if I said this wasn't my favorite thing in the box. A D&D dice that lights up when you roll 20s, definitely making use of this.

Everything.

Thank you Bobcat... Who I assume was Vapok?

CaptainTapole

Alright! So, I am waiting for some other gift entirely, I come home for lunch yesterday with a "We Missed You" note from FedEX. Thinking it was the Christmas gift the Boyfriend got for me--but taking forever to get here from the UK--I looked up the tracking number. Not from UK. Lo and behold--a few hours later--SmallLady updates the listings of giftees and the same tracking number. Hmmm.

So. Today, I come home from lunch and there was a box at my front door (since I did sign the release form on the note)...

Inside was another box (personally, I thought the Bobcat would jump out and go HA! to me by now)

Inside of that box were wrapped pre--oo! Sunday Comics!

Ahem! I mean...four wrapped gifts.

...Justin Bieber? Har. Har. ~_~

So, what were inside these lovely wrapped gifts?
Gift One...

Oo! Post-It Notes! Conveniently, I was down to my last one this morning at work.

Gift Two...

Hooray!! More pens for me to eat use at work! I can only use black ink sadly, so this is perfect!

Gift Three...

Wahoo! My little Woody and Buzz figures at work while have Little Green Lego Army Men to accompany them at night.

Gift Four and Five..

Squee! A blue jelly/rubber thing of a frog! And *drools* dark-chocolate covered espresso beans!
...Yeah...I ate like ten of them before going back to work from my lunch-break. With nothing to do and my mind going a mile a second does not help me at all. They were delicious all in all!

Thank you super much, Atomic Gary Busey, for these ever so awesome gifts!

PS If you want to conceal your identity a bit better, do not befriend your Bobcat Victim on Twitter two hours after the EMails were sent out. Luckily, I was not knowing what to expect! ^_^

I received my severance package from Spider Jerusalem yesterday. I was quite blown away by some of the "Junk" he had laying around the apartment. a huge thank you to Channon, Yelena and Kirindal for ensuring it's safe arrival!

So after I posted this, I was informed another package was on the way. It arrived at my workplace the day I flew out to Cleveland for the holiday and I just picked it up today.

The joke here is that during the prank for East 2012 (POTATO) toast, Z and the gang made a joke out of telling me my job would be to peel potatoes and I told them that I had never peeled potatoes. Now Tony has made peeling potatoes and other things easy, so there's no reason not to!

Actually I love kitchen gadgets, and we're about to move into a new apartment, so I'm super excited for this one. Going to leave it in the box until we move later this month though!

Thanks again, Tony!

Naw, that closet extents about 4 feet to the left beyond the image's frame, and there are 2 shelves and some space on the floor under it, all of which are full .

(Yeah, I caught the sarcasm, but everybody seems happy by this closet, so I keep it stocked :P)

That seems... Extreme. I posted descriptions here and pictures on twitter, but here, fill your boots. I don't frequent the forums, I'm always on in IRC, though

I titled this "Family Christmas preparation, courtesy PAX Secret Bobcats"

Supplementary pics … additional Bobcat fun from my Sekrit Bobcatter … thx @parabola

P.S. Nice to see other single malt lovers pervade these pages

PedroAsani

Just a quick update: I have not posted previously due to my relocation, and those at my old address being on vacation. I shall be checking in with them in 5 hours or so to see if anything arrived. They can be my camera proxies

SmallLady

If anyone has not yet received a gift, can you please email me asap? Thank you.

PedroAsani

After a hellish day at work, I get home at almost midnight and have to perform some disgusting domestic duties. All I want to do is sleep, but then I checked my email and found out my bobcat arrived!!

[HappyDance]

I'm just wrangling Imgur at the moment to get pictures, but I wanted to post ASAP so everyone knew it arrived.

Oh, so much Happy.

Star Wars Origami, which I will spend hours practicing so I can knock out a Yoda or Darth Vader helmet whilst drunk (right now I can only do cranes by reflex)

Build your own Stonehenge, so I can take a little bit of England and set it up in the corner of Seattle I eventually call my own.

This was perfect, both unexpected and wanted at the same time. A+ Bobcat, would Bobcat again.

GermanCityGirl

I've been remiss in posting my photographs! Check out my hat trick of amazing from The Lando Society.

First, the letter arrived with the first gift, which promptly adorned my desk so I could revel in the warmth of the Baron Administrator of Cloud City.





The second gift arrived and was used proudly during a D&D session, much to the envy of my fellow players. I mean, how cool is this? Photograph shows the back and front of my Lando glass.



It was told that one more gift was coming and when it did, Catbug and I were very curious to what it was.



And this gorgeous poster was my final present from The Lando Society!



I am so glad that the Lando Society Wish Fulfillment Department intercepted my message. I definitely did need more Lando in my life and now I do. Thank you, Lando Society. You were far too generous.

zeromyst

So I received a package in the mail today all the way from upside down land!

I opened it and was not attacked by any bobcats. (or drop bears)

It did include this note.

I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THESE IN THE PACKAGE. YES YES YES!! I cannot wait to Tim Tam slam all day at work tomorrow. Take that co-workers!

A kangaroo pen, a drop bear (gasp) and the Aussie flag.

I actually needed a calendar for 2014 so this was perfect. Thank you. As long as I don’t see a spider as one of the pictures I will not have to burn it and then nuke it.

Ezio! Also VEGEMITE. Tried it at Prime last year. Definitely an acquired taste… I wonder how many co-workers I can coerce into trying this. *evil laugh*

A new guardian for my PS3 collection.

@Manic2k THANK YOU!

zerzhul

So it appears that everyone has received their gifts, which means no shafts this year! A few people were late, including one very late, but on the bright side everyone got gifts!

Given that this is where things stand, I'm going to unsticky the thread. I believe we are still waiting on @Jim Sharkmagic to post pictures though.

Final Gift Chains!
