These arrived over the past week. Sadly though with an imminent moving of abode on the plans, I have very little time to enjoy them.
Firstly we have Sonic Underground DVD box set. Which is complete. I never watched Sonic underground, mainly because it looked terribly weird. Sonic has siblings? And is a Prince of the realm? In a Band? How do they come up with these concepts… I do look forward to watching it though.
Shin Shinobiden (or Shinobi X as it released in the English speaking lands) fro my Sega Saturn. A L-R shooter, much like all other games of the Shinobi series, but with digitised sprites far the characters. Much like Mortal Kombat 1, 2 & 3. Might have been cool in the day (unlikely) but looks a bit naff now, there is something odd about the look of the animation. A nice addition to my collection for amusement sake. It has cheesy cut scenes acted out as well. Hilarious!!
GI Hoe Specialist Trakker. I usually have no interest in GI Joe, but this guy has an interesting history. Much like the Machine-Men (Gobots) toys of the 80’s making a crossover into the Transformers universe (EG BugBite in the Botcon “Game of Deception” and Fracture, a black repaint of Mirage for the Movie 1 line), Trakker is Matt Trakker, the leader of M.A.S.K. He used to get around n a sports car which had gull wing doors and it could fly with jets. He had a mask called Spectrum which could project holograms and fought against the evil V.E.N.O.M and Myles Mayhem (who cameos in the Animated Allspark Almanac).
Hatchet from the Movie 3 Line of Transformers. A nice ‘dread’ TF. It’s a small size, erm Commander class I think it is called, but equivalent to scout size in the old scale. Compact little jet mode, and a cool animalistic robot mode. Paint it white and you have Sky-Lynx.
Finally, Batman: Arkham City. After Arkham Asylum, there was no way I was going to miss out on this baby. I got a steel book edition which has a nice cover. Absolutely incredible game let down only by the crappy TV i have been playing it when not at home. OH and the annoying message telling me how to counter blade attacks, which I rarely do successfully, so I just go for the dodge, but the message won’t go away, blocking my view of the battle. Therefore leading to a slap in the face and the end of my combo run…
