Quotes (from this video)
- Hey everybody, I'm Tom Vassal. Welcome to the most boring unboxings in the world as we open up stuff that comes into the Dice Tower and we see what it is.
- So, that is the one of these is the deluxe version for the hot games room in the Dice Tower library and the other one is for the library.
- All righty, folks. Well, there you go. There's even more stuff, but I had to put some in the library. I got some stuff from the Philippines. We'll show that stuff off in the future. But for now, that's the end of another boring unboxing. This time, really done by me and not Zee.
