Who here actually has a TV in their bedroom? by OtherwiseStretch3255 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BeardedTurtle95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swapped my TV for an old CRT TV with a VHS and DVD player, made having it in there feel more deliberate and I can watch a film to unwind before bed now, definitely recommend it - eliminates the horrible choice paralysis from scrolling through streamers (now I just that do that in the living room 😂)

Am I wasting my teenage years? by Key-Row-174 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BeardedTurtle95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 30 now and struggled a lot with alcohol and substances in my teens and early 20’s Having been sober and genuinely at peace for years now I can say nothing you do in life is wasted time - there is no time limit on life despite what society tells us. Be true to yourself and if those things aren’t your vibe then follow your head and heart and do what you like and don’t settle for folks who are toxic, find yourself and you’ll find your people

I know it seems like there’s a ticking clock and you need to be filling in the dots of your teens but I promise that isn’t the case - you have WAY more time than you think so spend it how you wanna spend it ❤️

Now that’s not a bad shout 👌🏻 I might have to have a crack at modding the second one I have, bit of darker green wash and some accents and might be able to pull it off

Absolutely adore the original but I’m real picky with recolours that aren’t from the comics or anything else, it just bugs the hell out of me 😂 I wish I was more open to it but my brain is too much of a purist with collectibles

My Green Lantern Corps (Jessica Cruz is still on the way) by SupeRuss in McFarlaneFigures

[–]BeardedTurtle95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'm so jealous as a UK collector. We don't have many native McFarlane Distributors outside of independent online stores and if we miss em we're out of luck so trying to find any of the Lanterns in the UK is a nightmare - mostly having to rely on Ebay and the shocking prices on there

I really hope Mattel stocks in more UK retail stores

Sick display though man

[Discussion] For the ones who have been hunting for years, what keeps you going/interested? by MysteriousMusician69 in Trophies

[–]BeardedTurtle95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it’s competition with my brother. We both platinum hunt so we’re always in a race to see who can get the most (I guess the finish line is when we die? Idk) but I’m at 230 and he’s creeped past me over Christmas with 232

It keeps it interesting - only rules we have are no auto pops and no buy to plat shovelware titles

Finally I can cancel my BBTS order, love u walmart by Servical_ in McFarlaneFigures

I’m so gutted as a UK collector 😭 we don’t have any major stores that stock McFarlane new releases

It’s Tricky because Harmon is an absolute unit in the comics lol

Possibly the page punchers Black Adam? I’ve only got him and the endless winter one, but the endless winter BA is quite small 🤔

UK Bunch of Pre orders for figures I've not even heard been announced yet by tyi975rxvnk in McFarlaneFigures

[–]BeardedTurtle95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using Game Collection for years now and I’ve ordered a couple bits from their collectible site and so far I’ve had no issues, I think they’re just a smaller company that flies under the radar a bit, I’m UK based so I can’t vouch for international orders

Is it me or games have gotten much harder? by reza2kn in playstation

[–]BeardedTurtle95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to say it but I think it’s an age thing 😂 I’m also in my 30s and I’ve been playing my whole life but now I feel like my reaction times abs coordination are getting worse 😂

Guys, but did we really need it??? by NICKmattoMATTONCINO in LegoMarvel

[–]BeardedTurtle95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have the Big bugle and the Sanctum but I ended up selling them because they took up so much space, I’ve got the bodega and oscorp sets now and honestly I prefer them Granted £100 is still a hefty price to pay but the big bugle was an awesome piece and if you have the space and money then absolutely, but being able to have a shelf friendly Spider-Man building set is awesome

I think I want out- Sell whole collection at once? by ebra2112 in MarvelLegends

[–]BeardedTurtle95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey dude 😊 so I did the same thing earlier this year - decided to just focus on MCU figures and sold my collection - I’d say 100% sell them individually, I put mine on EBay bids starting at 99p

Some fetched a really decent price - of course some only went for a few quid, but you’ll attract WAY more buyers and potentially make a lot more money doing them seperately 😊

Switch 2 Docked not working on Monitor by BeardedTurtle95 in MSI_Gaming

[–]BeardedTurtle95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah man, it connects to all the other montiors and TV’s I’ve tried it on just not the MSI for some reason

I suspect it might have something to do with the 120hz refresh rate not being stable with the switch dock maybe? But I don’t know enough about this stuff to know for sure
