THE DREAMSHELF

Only Saana has the ability to turn a Pokemon card into the most beautiful and well-thought-out and effort-filled present ever. And not to mention the pink sphinx moth stamp! WOW!!! Thank you so much for everything!


So anyway, merry Christmas to all my friends and lurkers!


From all of us here at RIDITOYS!

HOLY CRAP YES!!

And YES, I'm back in Fukuoka for the fall! And I didn't even finish posting the rest of my stuff from last time... haha...

YES! YEESSSS!!! I managed to snatch THIS from a UFO catcher machine! But only after using up all my 100 yen coins and making a total fool of myself at Canal City, swearing to never touch a crane machine ever again... then I saw another one at the Sega World near Toys R Us, and well, ta-dah!! I've named him SUCKER because it's what he's making me feel like.

And now, the offerings!

FRIDAY: GUESS WHERE I WENT THAT DAY, GUYS!!! CANAL CITY!!! I actually didn't mean it, but I sort of just... ended up there after discovering that I did indeed remember the way. YAY!!!


This is my loot... WHAT, not big enough for you?! GIMME A MINUTE!! It's not QUITE Regigigas season yet (the official Tomy figure was released the day after, der), and while there was lots of more stuff there I wanted, I didn't want to buy it all on my first trip! They DID have a GIANT Regigigas plushie there and I want it SO much, but I'll wait and see if I get enough space for it. Maybe I can just... carry it along with me? The very first time I flew home from Spain four years ago, I carried along this ginormous floppy Charmander plush I bought right before I left.

ANYWAY!

I got myself a Zubat plushie! It's not like I'm a particularly huge fan of Zubat or anything (I like it, though), I just felt like continuing the extremely retarded Hannibal Lecter character Pokemon plush thing I had going on.

Oh my goodness gracious, I was SO worried I'd never be able to get this particular Buneary! Pokemon Center exclusives rarely pop up on Y!J, and the only time I saw it on eBay was when it was together with the other three Pokemon in the series. I only wanted the Buneary, but being desperate, I went for the whole series next time it popped up on eBay ANYWAY. I'll name this guy... I dunno yet. Later.

Don't you just love it when you get your SMJ package before they have time to send you the shipping invoice? Oh EMS I LOVE you! Anyway...


This is Fluffy the Buneary! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?? IT MEANS... IT MEANS... THAT UNLESS I'M HORRIBLY MISTAKEN AND HAVE OVERLOOKED A BUNNY OR TWO, I FINALLY HAVE ALL THE BUNEARY PLUSHIES IN THE WORLD GATHERED IN ONE PLACE!! OH MY GAAAWWWRRSSSHHHHH!!!

YESTERDAY I returned to Canal City, and TODAY I went back to the geeky Animate store! LET'S TAKE IT FROM THE TOP AND MAKE ONE ULTRA SUPER GIGA LARGE ENTRY.


Starting with the Pokemon Center, there were a few more plush dolls I just HAD to pick up. I wanted to buy at least ONE Christmas-themed item, so the Pochama plushie seemed perfect. I got the Empoleon so that I can hug my DP starter, Maize, in real life! Finally, the Halloween Pikachu... I don't like Halloween as you all know, but come ON! This Pikachu comes with a FREE GOLBAT.

GREAT BOUNCING ICEBERGS, I love being in Japan! Really now, where else can you buy Pokemon toys at the convenience store? I probably wouldn't have bothered to buy these over the internet, but seeing them right there in front of me, I simply couldn't control myself.

Hey kids! The creators of all those corny old horror movies such as Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th and Halloween have all teamed up in order to create THIS instant classic!


~NIGHT OF A THOUSAND ABES~

WOW, what an absolutelty AMAZING movie! Just check out some of these reviews!

"Abe is actually a nice person!"
-- Mihashi

"I was actually pretty close to running up to the TV and kindly ask the Abes to stop being mean, but then I remembered that it was just a movie!"
-- Sakaeguchi

"Although the movie itself was REALLY BAD, the idea of being surrounded by a thousand whiny Takayas sounds kind of terrifying."
-- Haruna

"Kano is a MUCH better pitcher than Mihashi and if he starred in the movie instead, he'd make the Abes run away screaming."
-- Hatake

And now, let's see what those wacky Americans, Joe and Bob, are up to! ( Read more... )
