I had hard trouble placing this thread but I want it to be seen because I cannot say thankyou enough!!
I know this may come as a shock to some of you but I collect Hercules
I was doing my usual search of whats new on ebay and saw that my holiest of holy grail merchandise items had been listed.
I mean look at it!! I was so chuffed (plot twist: this is my one)
Then I looked at the financials and realised I had to go back to uni early and I was pretty stuffed.
I was pretty heartbroken, but eventually I hoped it would get listed again. It came up in chat somehow (not sure how because, I mean, I never talk about hercules) and Darris AKA Rasputin mentioned about bidding on it. I thought he was joking and carried on, for the next couple of days I think he mentioned it again but I am a slow skeptic so it didnt really click. Then on the night it was due to finish I was up watching how much it went for and it was finally put across to me that he was bidding on it for me and he won! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Thankyou so much!! It came today and it is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen and is the most prized possesion I own. I just cannot stop staring at it, it has been reverently placed in the centre of my hercules shelf. I have allways loved the hydra and it plays my favourite song (I can go the distance!) when plugged in it emits a red glow and fog! its just awesome. I am just compleately blown away by this random act of kindness! I thank you sooooo sooo sooo sooo much and I will do my best to make it up to you!
I did make a video... but its just 9 mins of me frantically trying to get into an extreamly well packaged box :lol:
I say this is 3rd in line of recent Zaps.
1. Nathan's Up marquee from Goofy_Moe and his cohorts
2. GIS's D23 Animation building from Rasputin
3. Your lovely Hercules pin.

So kind of him and lucky you!
I'm not a snow globe kind of girl but that one is amazing!
congrats!
And I hate to ask....but could you do a size comparison with that Hercules pin? I've been trying to trade heavily for that one, (why everyone is holding that one for dear life that doesn't even collect Hercules???) and was wondering if it was huge or just the picture makes it look like it.

Sorry, I edited the post to make it cleared, I dont own that pin. I am also trying to trade for it, I did trade for it but the pin never came. I have seen a picture though and it looks pretty small.
Wow....what a story. How VERY thoughtful of Darris. This is such an amazing testimony to the rest of us. Paying-it forward.
CONGRATS, Melissa. The globe is beautiful.
