Post your (not so) humble brags below once your package(s) arrive. Merry Christmas!
Having to wait until Christmas never stops people.
That said, even if you don't want to open it yet, please let me know you received your package!
We all know the vast majority of people won't wait - I, for one, don't have the willpower required.
Can say I will likely crack and open it as soon as I get it if only to post brag pics before the in person holidays get to hectic and I forget.
I'm extremely impatient so I opened mine! It was from RachRob! I got:
1x SWEET ALTERED FOIL FROSTBURN WEIRD!
1x SWEET ALTERED LIFE FROM THE LOAM!
1x Thragtusk!

1x Sublime Archangel!
1x Ponder Korean M12!
1x Spell Pierce Japanese!
1x Manamorphose!
1x Shivan Reef!
3x Lingering Souls!
1x Loxodon Smiter!
Thanks so much!!!!!

That life from the loam is awesome. Definitely jealous.
Hahaha, Rachrob is my girlfriend (her artistic signature) -- I personally could not manage to draw anything decent on any cards and since, well, she's an artist I figured she could probably do a bit better than I. Although I did manage to completely ruin a few cards trying to make them cheerful. Glad you got the package and I'm happy I managed to make a dent (although small) in your wishlist. Happy Holidays man.
Gonna get mine out hopefully by THursday, now that I'm back from visiting family. Trying to track down some cards, stores have not been helpful :/

So I received my package yesterday and just couldn't resist opening it. I know, I'm terrible. Some pics to make up for it though. The first card I saw was a promo Ajani Vengeant. Nice, I needed one for my EDH 5C lands based deck.
My reaction to my next card was kinda stupid, as I first wondered why I would receive a foreign Lightning bolt. Just a few seconds after I realized that I actually had put it on my wants list for my casual pimp deck, and it's just awesome!
The third card is a signed Chinese counterspell, though I didn't aks for this one, I really like it! Very nice card ^^. Directly found it's way in my UR casual pimp deck, just like the lightning bolt :).
But the last card was by far the best. I opened the package when a friend was at my place and we both couldn't believe I actually received this card. You might think, four cards ain't that much, but wait untill you see it.
YOU SIR*, ARE MY HERO!
I checked the place from which it was send and believe it is from Gammadoom. Thank you so much, it's more than I could have (realistically) hoped for. The Secret Santa made my year a lot better! :D
*Assuming my SS is a gentleman, based on the average percentage of woman playing magic and your handwriting ;).
No pics for me but I got mine today and was too excited to wait.
I got:
1x Foil Rune-Scarred Demon
1x Knight of the Reliquary
1x Marsh Flats
1x Krenko Mob Boss
1x Cavern of Souls
2x Arid Mesa
1x Deathrite Shaman
1x Batterskull
Which was amazing! and way more than I could have expected. I believe my Santa was MillerD so thank you very much and merry christmas. He hit everything on my list pretty much save the Obliterators and that was the least wanted of the group. The knight of the reliquary I didn't ask for but I don't have any and always wanted some so thanks!
I'm glad you had a home for the Counterspell. I needed a fourth card to complete the packaging and an old school Leif Garrett Counterspell seemed like a decent random pimp card to throw in.
You were thiiiiiiiiis close to getting a Jace wearing a Santa hat, but multiple attempts on other cards revealed the fact that I'm an even worse artist than I thought I was. Figured you'd appreciate a non-altered one a little bit more than one with an accidental beret (they were seriously that bad). Did the backwards sleeving of the Jace help to highten the anticipation, or was it just dumb? I was going for "Oh, these are some pretty cool cards. Wonder what this backwards one is? Whaaaaaat?", but wasn't sure how it was going to be received.
May all your fateseals put gas on the bottom and leave your opponent flooding out. Happy holidays!
Haha, thanks man! I thought about how an SS altered card would be cool, but if it was that bad, I'll take your word for it. Doesn't make me like it less! And yeah, the putting in reverse was very nice. I pulled the card out of the sleeve, turned it around and gasped XD. I just really couldn't believe at first glance. Awesome :). Happy holidays to you too, as well as to all the other sourcers!
Looks like solid gifts so far. I personally would love a playset of signed/altered jaces. I got one from when I won the raffle on manatalks. Pascal Marion didn't want to alter the card, so he put ManaTalks on the card.
