Secret Santa 2016 - OPENING GIFTS!

[PointyFox]

)



But wait!  There's something else in here!

 







Who could Noko be? 



This is such an awesome gift!  Somehow it's the exact shade of my favorite color and has a white fox on it 

It feels really nice too - it's firm without being too firm. 

My main board is a TKL so this is the perfect size.

I feel like I'm bragging 

Anyway, thank you Noko!   

edit: My secret Santa was Noko!  Who would have guessed?  Thank you Noko! 

[katushkin]

I opened mine today, but for some reason my phone won't let me copy my uploaded photos into the text boxes on my phone but I love everything I got

I shall post pictures tomorrow when I get home

Thank you Santa!

[HoffmanMyster]

Merry Christmas To You All!!

THANK YOU WHOEVER YOU ARE!!! They're great. Never heard any of these bands but a quick web search and I'm pretty sure I'm going to like it all!!

Cheers!!

Let me know what you think of Aloha. They're one of my favourite bands.

[CPTBadAss]

Thank you so much Secret Santa! I don't even know what I put in my list of what I like, but you got it pretty spot on with this!



Was sad when I read to enjoy with champagne and I had none in my house...but wait!



Vinyl and booze! The perfect combo for my relaxing night tonight! Can't wait for it to get chilled and toss that baby for spin! <3

This is why I'm sending a Part 2 Package on Monday! I limited my gift due to budget concerns, but all the amazing pics are guilting me into a round 2 )

I agree

I also feel like the gift I gave was lacklustre.

[tgujay]

Didn't have time to post my pictures yesterday, it was pretty obvious who my SS was  
Thanks so much Binge!

[i3oilermaker]

At first I thought I got a bag of chex mix, but then I found in some packing paper this gem!


Thanks Santa!!

Ooh I've got a guess based on zip code and Binge caps, but it's a weak case. Excited to find out who that was from! 

[Flamingchook]

I did not take photos and now I am in bed. Tomorrow I will take photos!

[katushkin]

Noko, I'm so glad you like your presents, and I hope the tester gets a lot of use, I'm still trying to chase up those extra switches for you, but I will send them out as soon as I have them.

So finally I have come back to my computer and I am able to post pictures.



Here was my letter laid out on top, with a little bit of deciphering to do. But I think due to looking at a little bit of what I think was a royal mail  sticker on the box, it is from Fire Brand All of my little packages were individually wrapped as well which was pretty awesome



And here is everything I got! I got a cool Abrams replica tool bag (which I asked for), and a set of sky blue Keycool caps (which I haven't had time to test out yet, but it looks like a full KC84 set!)



I also got a load of little lego guys which are going to get dotted around my desk, and a Lego Tie fighter model which I may super glue together and hang from the rearview mirror in my car



I got some super cool lego valve caps for the tyres of my car which are really really cool. I do like Lego



And finally I got a little Danboard figure as well! We spent ages trying to figure out if he was a charger for your phone (don't know why we thought that) but it's really cool and is also going on my desk

Thank you Santa!

[Sent]

Legos and Danboard.  So awesome.

[nubbinator]

Hopefully everyone posts pictures.  We're at like 50% or so now.

[iamtootallforthis]

I was very confused upon first receiving this. I thought I had ordered something whilst drunk. So I contacted Massdrop and never heard back after some correspondance. I then got the news from Nubs that this was indeed my Secret Santa Gift. Thank you kind stranger! I look forward to combining this with my CCnG set to make some awesome color combos.

[Lurch]

Hopefully everyone posts pictures.  We're at like 50% or so now.

I will definitely be posting some pictures when I pickup my package present on Monday.

edit: Thanks again secret santa! Including a smiling beard picture of me from shortly after opening the gift.
edit2: That's a painted g81-1800 I'll be using as a daily driver with this key cap set until I get my LSv1 from winters in a few weeks.
Thanks a lot. Really!

Glad you liked it I was really worried you might buy that bag before I got to send you it :x the little lego mini figures are actually league of legends champions but then you like dota now don't you :x glad you liked everything also the danboards head lights up with the little switch on the side :)

Merry Christmas!

Nah, I thought I would wait until after Christmas and my Birthday before buying anything on my wishlist, just in case Ohhhhh, is that what they are? I do, but that's still pretty awesome Yeah I noticed that, he's really cute I'm sure I've got a wallpaper of him on my PC somewhere...

[taylordcraig]
