I received my gift a week ago from my Secret Santa- Boldlygone! I couldn't wait to open it - it turns out I didn't even try very hard, actually Wink

What a surprise I got when I did! Here's what I got-

Star Trek TOS 40th - singles which completed my base set
Star Trek 40th- UK promo card (I've been on the hunt for this for some time, now)
Lord of the Rings Post cards - 4 different
Indiana Jones & Kingdom of the Crystal Skull foil insert set
1936 Players Automobile cigarette cards (Total surprise! I've been wanting to get into cigarette cards for some time now, but didn't know where to start LOL)
Breygent Vintage Poster Collection set (very nice set- I'm impressed!)

Thanks again Boldly!

And hopefully my Secret Santa recipient will get theirs pretty soon- it's a long way to go!

I'm participating in both the Scoundrel and NSU Secret Santa gift exchanges, so I'm not sure which Secret Santa this came from...yet. Perhaps there's a clue inside. I'll post an update in a couple weeks when I open the (sizeable) box.

Depends on where it came from - it might be a peat brickette!

Received mine yesterday and have placed it under the tree, although I have to admit I was tempted not to wait! I sent mine out about two weeks ago, but the recipient has not posted anything so I'm in the same boat as you, Wolfie!

Received mine in the mail today. I'm a traditionalist so it will wait under the tree until Christmas day.

I just wanted to post that my secret santa gift was sent out this past weekend so hopefully it shows up soon Smile


I received my Secret Santa gift today, and I have no will power whatsoever so I already opened it. I have been sick for over two weeks now and have been going through some rough times with friends and family so I needed the pick me up...I hope my secret santa is not angry with me Shake Head


Anyways, I cannot begin to thank my secret santa. The generosity of a complete stranger just blows my mind. My gift was just amazing. I won't give it away...the pictures will do all the talking Smile

First off two killer sketches from Lance Sawyer.


Then THREE ( Eek ) amazing sketches from Ck Russell


AND FINALLY A redemption for a sketch card from Jeremy Treece.



I cannot believe how incredibly generous my secret santa gift was. Its scary how well they picked out the stuff I liked based on the few shows and movies I put down on the form. I cannot find the e-mail I sent out with the form I filled out for this but its a little creppy lol. Let be elaborate:

- Chewie has been my favorite alien from the original star wars since I was a little kid. My first halloween costume was Chewie.

- I never really liked Charlie on Lost until his final episodes. After really learning his story, and his absolute love for Claire he is now my favorite character (not) on the show.

- I love Leia, but Padme holds a special spot in my heart being that I am in love with Natalie Portman

- Kara Thrace is my favorite character on BSG (but then again, who doesn't love her Smile )

- I did not notice it RIGHT away, but after looking closer I see that in the three character Lost sketch SAWYER has his arm around Kate. I'm prob one of the very few people that really REALLY wanted Kate to get with Sawyer, and not Jack

- I have PM'd Jeremy about returns from sets hes worked on and let him know sometime soon I would be getting a PSC from him because I love his style...I've prob contacted him three or four times asking about returns, and telling him I promise I will get a PSC soon and now I will finally be getting one.

So again, thank you so very much to my Secret Santa. You made me feel much better after my two weeks of straight sickness Wave

I received my gift today as well, and since I have no patience whatsoever, tore into the box immediately.

Thank you, TBear, for my wonderful gift! I received a Supernatural Season 3 base set, a Twilight promo...AND...a Twilight PW4!!! I absolutely loved the movie (and have read the books 5 times), but with finances being what they are, haven't even looked much at the card set. I couldn't buy a box or anything, and definitely never expected to get a pieceworks card anytime soon.

Thank you so much!!!

My prezzie from Germany arrived today and is safely tucked under the tree Thumb Up I haven't opened it, but at a guess, as it's card shaped, I may have an idea what it is Big Grin
