Press Start to Continue: Vault 19

Image
Most gamers know that in competitive multiplayer the oldest and most simple way of dividing up teams is Red and Blue.  History Well Vault-Tech decided to play this game with one of the Vaults. Vault 19 in the Red Rock Canyon outside Vegas did just that. The Vault separated its people into two factions a red faction and a blue faction.  Now wanting to make sure that the conflict would go on certain devices where designed to fail. Another conflict insurer was that the inhabitants of the vault all had pre-existing paranoia disorders. This is the all we know about vault 19 original inhabitants. Now by the year 2281 Samuel Cooke and his fellow escaped convicts have set up shop on Vault 19. Next week we let card talk, dice roll and roulette ball spin as we look in to Vault 21.

Vault 15 the vault that would found a New Republic History Vault 15 may on the outside look like one of the control Vaults. That however would be wrong. Vault 15 was populated with people of diverse ideologies just to see how they managed vault life. One of the tammer experiments The Vault remained closed until spring 2141 in which the people left and formed 4 different groups because of the different ideologies. Of the four groups three became raider tribes. Those tribes are the Jackals , the Vipers , and the Khans . The last group formed the village of Shady Sands , a community that would one day become the New California Republic . The Vault would then remain lifeless, abandoned, and striped of anything useful. It would not see another visitor until the Vault Dweller from Vault 13 came looking for a water chip.  It would not see long term occupation again until the New Khans set up a base there. Next time we go back to the Mojave and look at what happens when...

Art of the Shelf: Price Point

So on the podcast and with The Out of the Box blogs I've made it know that I am a very eclectic collector with my collection ranging from shonen anime to superheroes to tokusatsu monsters and robots.  Now one of my favorite franchise is Voltron, it's in space, has giant robots, and a bit of mysticism what's not to love. Well with me being a collector you'd think Voltron would be heavy in my collection you'd be wrong. You see for me Voltron Toys range from really rare to very expensive and lately with the surge in release of Voltron figures you would think there be something out there for everyone. You kinda are right in thinking that but none of it is affordable. In this Blog I will use the Voltron toys to show how I evaluate a price point on collector figures and compare to other lines with  less expensive collector lines.

Press Start to Continue: Vault 13

Vault 13 is the primary Vault in both Fallout and Fallout 2. History A control Vault and one of the last Vaults built on the west coast. Its construction was completed in 2069. The major differences of the Vault 13 compared to other Vaults were the use of the Pip-Boy 2000 and the extra G.E.C.K.  The Vault’s mission was to remain closed for 200 years as a study of prolong isolation. This would be the case until the water purification chip broke in 2161. This would lead to the selection of the Vault Dweller who would then go out and gather a new water chip. The dweller would then return with water and disturbing reports of super mutants. The dweller was then charged with stopping the army. After all that was said and done the dweller was then exiled from the vault. The vault would remain quiet until 2241 until the all clear signal came. Believing it to be genuine the occupants gathered to leave the vault only to be greeted by two squads of Enclave solders. The dwellers ...

Vault 12 is a key location in the original Fallout game. History Vault 12 is not a control Vault. We have first experimental Vault of Project Safehouse. Ok the experiment conducted here was simple what would happen if the Vault door didn’t seal properly. The goal of this was to study the effects of the background radiation. The end result however was many dying from radiation sickness or turning into Ghouls. The Ghoul survivors would then go on to form the town of Necropolis. Even though the Vault was well falling apart it still had a working water purifier chip that would have is needed to save Vault 13.
