The best USB 2.0 Flash Drive Sandisk has to offer.

As time goes on, technology gets better. That is definitely the case with Sandisk's 128 GB USB (2.0 only) Flash Drive.
The write speeds are quite fast, depending on your system but I actually did not get this to use for my computer; I got it to use on my XBox 360.
The XBox 360 immediately recognized it, with no need to re-format it in any way. Since the XBox 360 is a previous generation game console, it's only able to utilize USB 2.0 devices. Any USB 3.0 devices will usually not work unless they are compatible with USB 2.0 devices, which the XBox 360 falls under.
Can you imagine? Back in 2008, when I bought my XBox 360 Elite from Best Buy, 120GB was considered to be a lot of space? Well, times sure have changed. The past few years, I found myself running out of hard drive space on my XBox 360. As time went on, Microsoft was able to release updates to the X360 OS, allowing external hard drives & usb flash drives to be used for storage of X360 files and game software.
At first, they limited the size to about 128GB but eventually, they maxed it out to 2TB so almost ANY game collector wouldn't need to worry about running out of space on their hard drives.
It's very cool to see that I can have a Sandisk 128GB USB Flash Drive attached to my XBox 360 and realize that it has more space than the original X360 Elite's 120GB Hard Drive.
Thank goodness for technology getting better as time goes on.

Easily captures the essence of Samus + Metroid

Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the coolest things about Amiibos is that they allow your favorite characters to come to life (made of plastic, no less) in both your game and to display on your shelf. Nintendo has really captured the spirit of the "Metroid" series by offering this 2-pack of Amiibos that includes main protagonist "Samus Aran" in her classic "Metroid II: Return Of Samus" crouching pose (from the cover of the original GameBoy version of the game and the "Baby Metroid" from "Super Metroid" posed in the way that it has "broken" out of it's containment tube. Now, the scale of the figures may not be correct, especially when you consider that the Baby Metroid is supposed to be around the size of Samus' Morph Ball form (think the size of a regular basketball), while Samus herself is as big as the Baby Metroid, at least for her Amiibo counterpart. Aside from those details, the figurines are fantastically detailed and truly capture the essence of the "Metroid" universe in general. If you are a fan of the "Metroid" series, you owe it to yourself to get this set of Amiibos! They can also be used to unlock certain things (in-game) for the 3DS game "Metroid: Samus Returns" if you have a New Nintendo 3DS/XL or an original Nintendo 3DS/XL, 2DS/XL with the separate NFC reader.

Very easy to scratch off the stuff covering the "juicy center" which would be the numbers. Make sure you have an internet connection and account to use on the the Nintendo eShop.

There's not much to say about these Microsoft Gift Cards except that they work! These are excellent for people who want to purchase things on XBox Live without using a credit card to pay for them. You can go into a Best Buy store, pay the face value amount on the card and you're ready to use the card on XBox Live for whatever you wish to purchase from Microsoft. Just make sure you have an internet connection before you try to connect to XBox Live, otherwise it won't be possible to use this $25.00 Microsoft Gift Card.

Microsoft Special Edition Camouflage Wireless Controller: The camouflage design that mimics woodland and battlefield environments allows you to immerse yourself in covert Xbox 360 gameplay. Because when you look the part, you can play the part.

It may look a bit ugly, but it does the job well!

Now when you take a look at this controller, you think "whoa, what an eyesore". But honestly, does it really matter what the controller looks like once you're playing the game? With the newly added, customizable "cross pad", this is the best XBox 360 wireless controller design to date. These come in many different colors, but the camouflage version seems to be the one that goes on sale the most, possibly because it is not a very attractive looking controller.
I picked mine up for $29.99 + tax when it was a Best Buy "Deal Of The Day", so I highly recommend that you all sign up for Best Buy's Email List so you can also get opportunities to buy awesomely made controllers like this (brand new!) at a stellar price.

What's great about it: It is the definitive XBox 360 controller design.
What's not so great: It does not look too cool, but that's not too important.

Blast your play into high gear with one of these 6-inch Star Wars The Black Series action figures. Each figure is highly detailed and has multiple points of articulation, so you can fight the battle of good vs. evil with authenticity. You'll receive one of these Star Wars The Black Series action figures chosen at random to enhance your collection.
 

What good would 'random' be when shoppers are looking for the characters they do not have?

Perhaps there are consumers out there that are willing to take a chance and order a "random" figure, almost like a 'blind bag' figure or 'blind pack' of trading cards. It is quite surprising that any retailer would elect to randomly ship action figures from any assortment of any franchise, especially if they are selling the figures at MSRP. Now if Best Buy sold these 'randomly selected' figures to you at a discount, then I could see the value in it. Aside from that, most consumers will probably avoid purchasing these particular products if they are random in their selection.
