Gradius/Salamander figurines

Post by indutrial »

Not sure if anyone posted this, but someone from Gradius Home World is selling a bunch of cool-looking figurines, including some nice bosses from Gradius III and Salamander II.

Gradian is selling some of his great one of a find sculptures on eBay, these could make some great unique Xmas presents for Gradius fans.

These are awesome-looking, but I think my fiance would think I've gone off the deep end if I started decorating the house with scary-looking alien monsters.

OH MY GOD, THE CORE. THE COOOOORE. Ok, I'm totally going for it. Buy or bid? :O

I want to be fair, but at the same time, I just WANT it.

Wow... Just wow! Those figures are really impressive. They haven't gone that high yet either. I just may have to bid on some of these... Great find!

The friggin' Core is tempting me. Badly. I want to bid and be fair, since other people will (duh) want it, but at the same time, I wanna be mean and just buy it. GWAH.

*rolls around in agony* Because if I bid, and some person with the gall to pay like 50-60-70+ bucks on it shows up, I'll lose out since...yeah... paying that much for myself also feels unfair for the holidays... And stuff. YEAH. Gwaaaaah~

(I could totally buy it, and I won't feel too guilty... Well, that is except for sniping other people's chances...)

That Vic Viper and Big Core are awesome! If I hadn't been spending so much money on christmas gifts and random games lately, I might be tempted to grab one.

I don't think the ships look to great, they're awfully rough. The more organic stuff is pretty nice though, I especially like the Silent Hill 2 figure.
