Final part of my miniatures order arrived today...
A Star Trek Tactics II HeroClix starter, and a Tactics (I) Booster Case (12 ships)
additionally 2 more Y-Wings for my Star Wars X-Wing game.
and 2 new sets of Chessex dice. (Stealth Speckled & Opaque White)
(really tempted to order a 'pound of dice' just to see what comes)
Something new for my Handheld Console Collection :cool:

I now have two of these things and sm starting on getting the games
...my minis collection is beginning to get out of control...:p
so i picked up this miniatures case today for (about 40% of) my Star Wars minis.
actually a Warhammer case, but i really liked the look of it.
Picked up a Game Boy and a Game Boy Color yesterday, then another Xbox 360 today. Not quite sure what to do with it, to be honest.

i never got into the original minis game, just the newer 2 games, but i do have the original Star Wars RPG game (plus a few of the resource books) from West End and also the Core Rulebook for the WotC d20 game from 2000....Quote:

i am mulling over whether or not to get the SW: Edge of the Empire RPG stuff.
i think i might get the Star Wars LCG stuff first..
i am up to 411 of the Star Wars minis from the 2004-2010 game. (the ones i am missing are hugely expensive unfortunately, such as Boba Fett and the AT-ATs etc)
i concentrated more on putting together enough minis to play out scenarios like the Endor Battle (lots of Storm/Scout Troopers, Rebel Commandos, Ewoks, (2) AT-STs) Tatooine (Tuskens, Jawas, Weequay/Klatoonian/Gamorreans, Sandtroopers (no Jabba yet tho)) Hoth (Snowtroopers, Hoth Troopers, Luke & Han on Tauntaun, Snowspeeders (sadly lacking in the heavy gunners and AT-ATs tho) and of course Death Star (tons of Stormtroopers, DS Gunners, Engineers, and every major character (Luke, Leia, Han, Chewbacca, Obi-wan, R2D2, C3PO, Vader))

Yamaha QY10
In my musical endeavors, I seem to continually run into the problem that I get inspiration pretty much any time and place other than when I'm sitting at home with my gear and my computer, so I thought a portable MIDI sequencer might help. The interface on this is underwhelming (though not bad, for its time,) but its pattern-based approach to music sequencing leaves me feeling right at home (even if it could really use a tracker-style editor for the patterns - but you can't do that very well on a one-line display...) The sounds are moderately blah pre-GM PCM stuff, not interesting but usable, and of course since it's MIDI I can run it out to all my good synths and not even bother with the built-in sounds. The one really irritating oversight is the lack of an internal speaker...oh well. We'll see how much this actually helps, but even just as a basic portable sketchpad for musical ideas it should be nice...
@commodorejohn: I really hope you find some use for this one! I've been tinkering with another sequencer aeons ago, the Roland MC-500, and i can tell you it wasn't the most pleasant experience. It didn't have any onboard sound though, and storage was on 3.5" floppies. Screen was 2 lines of characters, but the darn thing was so cruel... It felt like a tracker program, whereas you had to add line after line of notes and such, and is not the way i like writing music. I'd rather have the classic score sheet on screen, or any other means of graphic display.
Yeah, we'll see how it goes. I'm much more comfortable working in tracker format than with traditional scores (even when I moved to VSTs instead of MODs, I've been using Jeskola Buzz for the actual writing/arranging,) but the QY10 only kind of works that way. Still, it doesn't seem that bad, and it is nice and portable.
