Notes:

This thing is 4 pages longer than I expected (including the front and back “covers”)?? To think that this vital statistic went undocumented for so long...

The 2001 copyright date on the package sticker has been visible in photos for years; despite this, I’ve hesitated on pinning this as the Ring’s production date. The mention of the Works-Opposite-On-Women thing makes me more confident that the manual, at least, was added to the package in 2001, perhaps close to or after Book 5 dropped that August. (I’d still say the Ring itself is still up in the air, given the multiple claims of it being given out as early as 1997. Which brings up some more questions: Did those early Rings come with a different manual and sticker, or none at all?)

Speaking of the Works-Opposite-On-Women thing, the wording of “may” kills me fghjf. It’s like the Company found this glaring malfunction during testing and went “oh well, off to mass production!” No wonder they got shut down lol

The back cover looks exactly as it appeared in Book 1, down to the sentence breaks! The only addition is the copyright info on the right side.

I’ve been laughing at “Day Pilkey” for 20 minutes now lol. I thought of correcting all the typos in my transcription, but they’re cute to me so I left them in

Somehow it never occurred to me that Dav himself might’ve written this manual. The long list of silly side-effects is a big giveaway. There’s little guarantee he’ll remember the answer after all this time, but it’s a question I’ll be keeping in mind just in case.

The Ring itself is so tiny that I’m scared to wear it fhgjghj, it might get stuck past my knuckle or even break! Also I can’t snap my fingers so it’s not like I could use it anyway

Besides the Black Lenticular Spiral/Red Light-Up Spiral thing, there’s another small difference between this Ring and the Movie-era one. This one has “3-D” printed vertically on its shoulders and “Hypno-Ring” printed horizontally on its halo; the Movie one has the full name on its halo, minus the hyphen between 3 and D. (Look up “ring anatomy” if that sentence doesn’t make sense.)

The package is resealable, so I’ve put everything back in. I’ll be storing it in the little plastic chest I keep my first-edition CU books in, away from excess heat, excess light, and—most importantly—the wrong hands!

I’ve been waiting 20 years to get my hands on this thing. (Well, okay, first I stewed about it for about 1-3 years as a kid, then forgot about it for 11, then suddenly remembered it and stewed for 6 more, but you get this gist.) It’s nuts to finally hold it in my hands, let alone be the first to preserve a piece of it. Let this be a lesson to all: no matter how long it takes or how silly it is, your personal Holy Grail still exists for the taking... though it might cost over 40 bucks!

here wanna see the one thing i DID manage to accomplish with my brain-dead no-internet self earlier

i got bored and booted up Paint 3D for the hell of it.

tiny little man.

also why does this program let you put Minecraft Nether Biome shaders on your models.

[i-dreamed-i-had-a-son]

I'm sorry I can't take your call right now, I'm becoming unhinged about Transformers again,,,

I will probably remake this poll at the end of the year to include Mutant Mayhem and Wish.

I know echizen was having some war flashbacks when Sakuno got kidnapped when they were together in the states.

ZBrush practice done last year.. super fun🩶

Just ignore the hair😤

[knight-intraining]

You know one of the major flaws in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise is the idea that Elizabeth Swann-Turner, Pirate King would retire to an island and be just a mom.

Where's the TV series of her getting into shenanigans, Murder She Wrote style?

Like, she knows better than the governor. She can't just sit by and watch him put his ridiculous naval policies into place.

With her upper class upbringing (and father's inheritance no doubt), she's not going to at least think about hiring a nanny instead of not just hand raising, but homeschooling her child?

After a taste of adventure, she's going to just sit on her laurels and wait till she can see her man again in 10 years?? I think not

saws iii-3d are literally about him the murder is secondary

(second) First Impressions

Jim unexpectedly bumps into a familier face and spock gets to contimplate if he actually terrifies cadets That Much

@cosmi-ccraft

Enterprise is safe to fly another day. All thanks to Captain James T. Kirk's sacrifice. He's made peace with his death, even though it breaks his heart one final time to see the hurt in Spock's eyes. Still, the last thing he gets to see is the face of one of his dearest friends... until his eyes snap back open. Not in a hospital. In a shuttle as it lands at the Academy. “Once you exit the shuttle you are free to return to your dorms. Those of you who are new, you’ll follow me to registration and physicals,” a vaguely familiar-looking officer says, and Jim’s heart stops in his chest. Surprising, considering it shouldn’t be beating at all.

(scene taken from chapter 2)

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy I made another one

:)

pt 1/?

[galaxyseclipse]

yay, Sonic!

and Shadow!

and that other Sonic I guess

I tried to get as close as possible to the boxart, but for some reason I think Classic's game model is very slightly differently proportioned to his CG one

at the very least, his rig's a pain in the butt

and here's all three put together!

looks just about as smacked together as the official one!
