How are we at the end of October already? This year is definitely going by far too fast although I can't really complain as this time of the year is definitely my favourite, cosy nights in or cold evenings at the football you just can't beat it. I have been hit & miss when it comes to spending this month and my poor bank account is feeling a bit sorry for itself at the moment. Here are the geeky/gaming related items that I have purchased in October...
First up my mum found this Gremlins Christmas t-shirt and asked if I wanted it picking up and of course I said yes. I got hooked on the Gremlins last year thanks to Liam making me sit down and watch it for the first time. This t-shirt is going to be perfect for the Christmas season and I think I am going to end wearing this more than any other Christmas t-shirts this year. How cute does Gizmo look on this though?
When my mum got me the Gremlins t-shirt she also found this Sonic the Hedgehog t-shirt reduced down to £3 so I asked her to pick me one of these up too. With this only being £3 it is going to be perfect for lounging around in on those gaming sessions as it is a bit on the over-sized side.
I have finally got my hands on the special edition flocked Gizmo Funko and I can't wait to have him sat by my desk when the games room is finished. As soon as I saw this on the Smyths Toys website I knew I wanted to add it to my collection and at long last I have managed to find one in stock.
Carrying on with the Funko theme I finally managed to add a Spider-Man into my collection and the one I picked up was the black & gold suit one from No Way Home. I absolutely love the colour of this Funko and it is just so nice to finally have a Spider-Man ready to add to the games rooms Spider-Man shelf.
I also managed to add another Miles Morales to my Funko collection and this time it is the classic suit one. I am loving the Miles Morales Funko's at the moment and I am looking at adding any I find to my collection and who knows I might end up getting the full collection of these ones as they all look brilliant.
When I was in the pound shop I came across this Marvel Groot book for just £1 and there was no way I was leaving this behind as it is perfect for my nephew. I am putting this away for him for Christmas but I don't know who will enjoy it more me or him.
I seem to have fallen back into buying graphic novels at the moment and the ones I get are mainly Spider-Man ones. I was struggling on which to pick the other day so Liam helped me settle on this Green Goblin returns one which I am really looking forward ot sitting down and reading as it looks brilliant.
When I got Green Goblin Returns I also picked up City at War which is one I had been looking at for a while but hadn't purchased yet. I finally caved though and picked it up and I am so glad I did as after a quick flick through I know it is going to be one I enjoy.
I also picked up this Lifetime Achievement one and to be honest this one jumped out at me the most when I was deciding which ones I wanted. This one looks really good and again I am really looking forward to sitting down and reading it. I think it is safe to say the Spider-Man shelf is starting to fill up.
The only reason I ended up going to the comic book shop was to pick up this Overwatch graphic novel but I obviously ended up getting a lot of Spider-Man too. I absolutely love Tracer so I didn't want to miss out on this one and again I can't wait to sit down and read it.
Finally is is October if I don't pick up a copy of FIFA? Of course I had to pick up FIFA 222 this month and this time around I picked it up for the PS5. I always make sure I purchase this game as it provides hours of fun for both me and Liam.
So that was what I picked up that is gaming or geeky wise in October, with work starting on the games room I need to make sure November isn't half as spendy as this one has been as my priority is definitely going to have to be items for the games room and that is soon going to add up. I am just glad I managed to get plenty of bits in October that are going to keep me busy for a while.
