HANDLE WITH EXTREME CAUTION
Got my birthday gift to myself a week early today in the mail (along with the H3 bling shirt I bought for my sister's birthday, as well as the MC Visor shirt :).
Thinking about putting the Carnage patch on the back somewhere.
I opened up the bag, and this was along the inside flap:
"HANDLE WITH EXTREME CAUTION. The contents herein are protected by the UNSC Martial Circumstance Rules and the Official Secrets Act of 2550. Penalty for unauthorized dissemination or distribution of these contents is summary execution by a UNSC authorized firing squad. This is a field issue Messenger Satchel and as such is protected by extraordinary wartime provisions. This Satchel is rated for safe transport of UNSC-rated plastic and chemical munitions, as well as known types of Covenant material, including Plasma and Brute Grenades."
Awesome.

McTrollers
Yesterday I received an automated voice-message from Gamestop, telling me that the Halo Spartan/Covenant controllers should be in on Friday (today). If you remember from one of my earlier posts, I had these on pre-order long ago.
Today I gave my friend, Sabs, a call. Sabs works at Gamestop and gets me some nice discounts and swag. I asked if he'd meet me at work to pick up my controllers, he said sure thing.
Two minutes later I get a call back, saying he just called work, and the UPS man didn't show up with the controllers.
Heartbroken, I went to Gamestop anyway, since I had to pay off the last $45.09 for my Legendary Edition of Halo 3. My little Halo-playing sister came along for the trip, wanting to see if there were any DS games she wanted for her birthday. When we walked in, Sabs was there, talking to his buddy behind the counter. I paid for my Legendary Edition, griping about my disappointment in knowing the controllers we not available still. A moment later his buddy came out with a box fresh off the truck. I squealed and inside were the new wireless controllers.
The Spartan one is mine. The Covenant belongs to the sister :)
Shortly after my purchases, I learned that the employees at Gamestop recieve a bracelet with the Halo 3 icon on it. Sabs' friend said he had his in his car if I really wanted one, but before I could reply Sabs reached into his sleeve and handed me his.
"It's a little too punk-rock for me. Consider it an early birthday present."
It just about rivals my dog tags.
The figurines that came with the controllers look like junk in these images, mostly because of A) My camera B) Lighting or C) Me not being a photo major. But in person, they're amazing. Just like the ActionClix, there is so much detail on these tiny little guys. I love the MC with the shotgun, but he looks so cool with the Assault Rifle.
Oui, oui!
More pics of the controllers.

Master Cat
I was browsing the interwebz for a Master Chief helmet reference, and came across a typical lolcat photo. Normally these drive me insane, but this one is the only one I've ever bothered to save to my archives from now until Caturday.
