In my house we have a tradition where you open one present on Christmas eve.

Usually it's on a night, but thanks to my sister, we were able to open one this morning.

I opened a strange looking package...

And out pops Animated Snarl, the Tiny Triceratops!

Post your christmas stories here!

I don't get TFs for Christmas unless I buy them. I was hoping to get Cyclonus, Hound or some other from the newest wave this Christmas but none of the stores around here has them. :sad:

So do you like Snarl?

I know I'm getting Lockdown, maybe one or two more Transformers. Also have good guesses for some other gifts, but I'll see what tomorrow brings. Then I can get myself some stuff afterwards.

My brother got me the Sam's Club set. I get the feeling I'll be getting more TF's since my family supports my collecting habits.

Well, I never excepted him for Christmas, but he is my first Animated fig.
Yes, I do like him, and my mom thinks he's cute.

I got absolutely nothing this year =(

I’ve got to go to bed before I can open my stuff for some reason. The tree is full right now… I’m not sure I’ll be getting any sleep. Some big boxes under there! I’m pretty sure one is Encore Metroplex, and another is the Sam’s Club exclusive 5-pack… but I’ll see what I’ve actually got tomorrow.

I did get an GI Joe Funskool version Toxo-Viper and 25th battle damaged Snake Eyes & Storm Shadow comic pack tonight though.

Got $50 and what basically amounts to a Nerf gun. (Not made by nerf, fires nerf-esque darts) And like $10 worth of scratch off lotto tickets that didn't win jack. (It's a family tradition)

We open presents at my grandpa's house on Christmas Eve, so that's not all I'm getting.

The $50 I was trying to save...but most of it went to Animated Jazz and Shockwave because I am weak when I'm in a store with large amounts of money in my pocket.

I got a toothbrush...alright, I don't have the world's best dental hygiene, I get the damn hint. To be fair, though, it is a damn fine toothbrush.

EDIT: Alright, Christmas has fully passed. Here's the haul:

Chrono Trigger DS
Super Mario Galaxy
Star Wars Battlefront 2 (PSP)

And the "Family Present" (The one I have no full say in) A goddamn PS3. With GTA4 and Fallout 3. And a $50 GameStop gift card.

Woo.
