I sent out my gift yesterday via USPS priority mail from FL to Ohio. It will make it in 5 to 6 days to be delivered.

I recieved my gift on Tuesday. Very cool item. Thank you!

Thanks for doing this gift exchange. It's has been such a difficult year. This has been a welcome distraction.
Everyone have a great Christmas and a happy New Year. Blessings and Prosperity to you all.

Alrighty! Long overdue, here's pics of my gift!

As many know, I'm not a big superhero guy. Although when I was a kid I was definitely all about DC. The comics I had as a kid were my dad's from the 60's, mostly Superman and a bit of Batman. My favourite superhero movies have always been the Batman ones, particularly the ones with the Joker.

So imagine my surprise when This comes in the mail!

I *believe* this is the sonar cowl from Batman Forever? I went to see it with my friend when it came out as a teenager. :)

WAY above the $20 expectation! But that's not all! I also got this Batman clip wallet and a cool deck of Star Wars TFA playing cards (haters gonnna hate, I love the ST).

Sadly my kids and I all have big heads so there's no way this cowl is getting on any of us without a full tub of lube! :lol:

But fear not, I'll pick up a smaller styrofoam head to display it. One question, what product should I use to make the cowl more shiny and black? Some type of wax?

Being the organizer I know who my Santa is, so a HUGE thank you to TJackFx ! Merry Christmas all!
Glad you like it Mike, you certainly deserve it for all your contributions to the RPF :) Good ol armour all is my go to for keeping my cowls shiny!
 
Thanks mate glad you like all the stuff, still trying to get the saber off my son to design a stand for it!
Awesome! Well I’m glad you and your son liked it! Be sure to send a pic if you make a stand!

I’m hoping to get some more good turning stock to practice and make some more lightsabers. Maybe one day afford a proper lathe!

Plenty of learning still to do!

USPS is a bit of a mess this year. I mailed my secret Santa gift 8 days ago along with another package that was going to CA. Both were sent priority mail from the same post office on the same day. The CA package made it to the other side of the US and was delivered in two days. My secret Santa gift, traveling just one state over, is still in shipping limbo with no updates in several days. Very frustrating!

Imagine working for the delivery services this covid year? Exactly...
 
I keep watching to see if my recipient says he got his... please mark me as recieved. I haven't opened it yet, but I will post pics when I do. Thank-you, Secret Santa! :D

Same, my gift got to my recipient like a week ago but he hasn't logged onto the site since the 1st. Just wanna make sure he got it.

Hopefully I'm not the person who hasnt posted they received their gift. Covid has caused some weird mail issues at my apartment complex so occasionally i dont get notified about packages and they dont slways get delivered directly to me.
