This is my life:

Entrances to Federal building covered in "Fuck ICE" graffiti and IDF/LAPD/ICE 🔻spraypainted with a red triangle over it.
Reports of some feds shooting pepperball shots from the parking structure into a crowd that refuses to disperse. Pepperballs met with chants of "Fuck you" from the crowd.

I'm holding back a bunch of the blizz stuff too - it'll go on eBay. I'll post about it here, I know my audience. XD

I'll be posting about them then linking the eBay listings like the next day.

To be clear - all those tags are sealed. Never opened. Never scratched.
Considering my kid and I are gonna split the money - you can be sure every penny will go to buying indie games or funding them, lol.
#wishlist ghost hunter simulator! XD

All still sealed and perfect in the plastic.
All of them, perfect.

I've got several of both. I think all the tails are broken - but all <there> if that makes sense.
I'll make sure to tag you when the pictures thread has them.

I have the green murloc. I have all of them I'm pretty sure.
But they might be worth more as a set, I'll research and get back to you.

I hope so, we've got some super cool stuff that I'm certain there are people who would be much happier with it than I am.

I was thinking I might do a sneak peek just before the first. Like a thread here of the more exciting stuff. :)
But other than a few items - most are going to be low bid starting because a bunch of this I just want gone.

Right now it's - a ton of plushies, funkos, a few statues, pins/badges, and toys.
What are you looking for - I can make you a deal. XD
Oh and an OG Retired Server Blade for Echo Isles - starting at 3k.

that said if you're a collector with deep pockets who would also love to have a credit in an indie game about ghost hunting - feel free to dm the @prime8.games account with contact info and we'll be in touch.

Hold up - let me clarify - none of the skylanders we are selling are going to ultra rare ones. They will mostly be dupes of TfB's standard toys.
Unless you have 100k, Heartbreak Buckshot is not gonna be available. XD

We're going to combine our Skylanders (GASP I KNOW) and sell all the dupes, in addition to a BUNCH of Blizzard stuff that just makes me sad now.
It's gonna be huge.
And the proceeds will go to extending our runway for Ghost Hunter Simulator.

Yes I do. Because I've literally seen parents freak out over seeing things on OTHER games that just look similar.
But you've convinced me you're just here to fight with people so I'm good.
Good luck with whatever this is.

Nintendo does these things to sooth non-tech parents emotions. We understand that it's easy to get around and doesn't stop kids - they do not.
Nintendo understands that being the safe system - that appears to be locked down - gets a parent who is inherently distrustful - to buy the console.

You are not hearing me - a person who worked on multiple kids games and has spent a decade helping non-tech savvy parents. You're talking about technical aspects - I'm talking about parental emotions.

Already overloaded with a million things to research and do.
Nintendo makes it easy for them (and thus Nintendo has a huge customer base) by making it a less connected and harder for kids to get into trouble system.
The non gamer parent market is a pretty large one.

I just disagree with you then.
I've literally had parents beg me to help them figure out what games are safe for their kids - and even stuff like Fire Tablets for kids or Apple Arcade are not as *consistently* meeting the marks that Nintendo does.
Parents want to "protect" their kids but are -

I know the cost of online play is one of those "barriers" that makes it easy to prevent kids from getting online without permission - and because someone has to pay for it - they can point to "well the parent gave permission."

Consistently over the years - Nintendo's draconian "lock the system down" choices have ALL been related to making their consoles an easy and safe choice for parents.
Locking down the internet on previous generations, the whole Mii builder, chat... it's always because they want parents to feel safe.

You are correct enough about that seeming like it's a very big ask for such a small thing - which instantly makes me wonder about what is just outside of this that they were dealing with that made this choice the right one.
It's Nintendo - so I assume something related to kids (and thus parents).

I 100% think the reason my weighted blanket works so well is it forces my brain to focus on the weight so much and weight is compelling but boring and suddenly zzzzzzz. XD
