OK, Christmas is over, and I know a lot of you got some kewl stuff. So let's all tell, make others drool, pics are a plus!

As for me, I think the coolest thing I got was from my daughter.

She had to do a senior class project. She went with the old ways and learned how to make homemade lye soap. Different scents and so on.

So I got me some homemade soap. Hadn't used it yet, but looking forward to it. My soap is has real Bee's wax in it. I got the wax for her from a friend of mine that has many stands of bee's. She told me that there wasn't much of it used in a batch, so she has enough of it to last a LONG time!

So post up, let's here it.
 
XM radio for the tow rig, with a house dock to bring it inside.
Band of Brothers DVD box set.
orbital sander.
 
First year ever we got cash and only cash. Too bad there is always another bill to pay. :rolleyes:
 
The Four Wheelers Bible.... 200+ pages of 4 wheeling info. Maybe I'll quit asking so many freegin questions on this board..... By the way thanks to everyone who answers my questions... Maybe with some of the cool stuff in there I can answer a few....
 
27" flat screen TV, VCR/DVD combo that will record on DVD, sockets, ratchets, socks and underwear(as usual), a Jeep hoodie sweatshirt, and a Jeep tobogan(knitted cap, for those not from my neck of the woods).
 
I got Madden '06 for my PS2, the Pioneer XM Satellite kit (home, car, portable), some clothes from Old Navy, three sets of scrubs, and a die cast Rubicon TJ, and before I forget, an 8.8 for my TJ. :D
 
Got this toy :D

18 volt Dewalt Cordless Tool set (recip saw, circular saw, drill and flash light, 2 batteries and charger) and cash to have RnRfab build me a custom rear bumper!!
 
A 10 million candlepower spotlight, little mag light, one of those flashlights with no batteries that you shake up, an led keychain, and some $$. apparently I was running low on electric light? came in handy, though, when my power steering bracket broke on the way home and i had to find tools in the dark :beer:
 
Santa was good to me...Craftsman Air Compressor (2 HP, 150 PSI , 33 gallon tank), 100' Hose, Air Tool Kit (wrench, rachet, hammer, tire inflator, etc.), Remote Control 4x4 (until the trails open again), $$$, Garmin GPS for the tow rig, :driver:
 
I got one of the rockcrawler toys that they sell at walmart. I got the big one with high and low gear. It is really impressive, locked F&R, low gears, lots of articulation, and really grippy tires. Ground clearance does leave a little to be desired though.
Also got a new winch controller, a few small tools, and a stereo that plays mp3's.
 
A new power steering reservoir, when I took my steering box out to tap it for the hydro assist it fell and snapped the hose fitting off my reservoir :(
 
The wife got me all the usuals and a few buggy accessories...warn recovery kit, chrome fire extinguisher, and a dash mount hula dancer.
 
Wife got me wheels & tires, along with some carpet for the jeep


My son got a pretty intense set of electric drums that took me 3 hours to assemble on Christmas eve

Of course I wanted them a much as he did so we fought over who would play the drums and who would play with his remote controlled shelby cobra :lol:

My daughter had the 40" tall barbie all to herself :D
 
My younger brother got me a Surefire 9P flashlight. This thing is cool, so bright the website says it can be used for self defense to temporarily blind an assailant.

Those are pretty cool

I have a beretta shotgun with one mounted to it. As well as a USP .45 with the light rail mounted one.

Loved em both.

plus its Team Losi, that thing will run forever. But when a part breaks...be prepared to get it off the net, Team Losi parts are sometimes hard to find...
