What was the best/coolest Christmas present you got?

[oldcarnut]

For me the fact that I get anything is nice because there's not much I need except health and family but,  my son bought me a GoPro Hero 2 motorsports edition camera which I probably would have never bought that expense for myself.  I'd like to make some offroad motorcycle videos and when the I get the project built, a video for the car too.  Sooo,  what was your favorite or special present?

Here in Canada Futureshop is having a sale on them tomorrow. Limited supplies in each store.

Hero 2 Motorsport Edition with the free Wifi kit plus $70 off their sticker price.

So for us Canadians it's $210 plus taxes. (Reg $299 plus $80 for the Wifi Kit).

Everyone is switching over to the Hero3 models that just came out.  

As for me, I don't ask for presents, just gift cards. It's a lot easier as then I can buy what I need whenever the time comes.

Trading that dry heat for moist heat Paul?


I got a  tooth bar  for my Kabota's front end loader so I can tear up the back yard faster.

My son got  new front end bushings ,shocks and a 1 1/8" swaybar for his '70 Charger.  Somehow I suspect my involvement with those items did not end with gift wrapping them.

My son told me he would have looked at the GoPro 3 but he read too many bad reviews on them having various problems.  Maybe the bugs will get taken out soon.

The best present ever or just this year?

  You're probably right, Craig.

A custom made pen cut from what looks to have been a 30- 06 or .308 case and bullet. It even has a turnbolt action to advance the refill out of the tip. Super, super cool!  I'll have to get some detail shots tomorrow. Might be hard to get good pics, there's a lot of shiny chrome on it.

[nvrbdn]

yep, i want to see that one.

[PocketThunder]

A new Milwaukee angle grinder!!!!!!

Those are very cool and quite a conversation piece. They are made from spent military casings and from what I understand, the government has either stopped selling spent casings to the public or are going to stop doing it.

I have one I bought at a gun show a couple years ago called The Patriot Pen.  http://ampofohio.com/shop/patriot-pen-classic-brass

Sorry for the sucky quality of the pics, they are with my old phone.

Here's mine...

I bought this for myself, and it showed up the day before Christmas. Unless you count yourself among those in the cult of reverb enthusiasts, I understand if you don't fathom the significance of this particular score.

I got a new car!

Okay, it's just a model, and it's not a Charger... but it's still a new car!

[twodko]

As cheesy and mushy as it may sound, my gift was another Christmas with my wife. I pray for the same next year.

Health, happiness and prosperity to all of my friends here and all the poor moparless folks too.
