Pokemon: Re-ment Pokemon World Sparkling Sea

In which we take a Pokemon-filled trip into shallow but pleasant waters. I was excited to see this Re-ment set from the moment its preorder was announced; after all, I haven’t been shy about how much I love water features in figures and some of the Pokemon featured here in general. And it turns out […]

San-x: Re-Ment Rilakkuma Yumemiru Hoshi no Starrium

In which redecorating means pulling out sets from the last couple of years, including this mostly great collection. I don’t own a huge amount of Re-ment related to Rilakkuma, but what I do buy tends to have a particularly distinct look. That’s most certainly the case with this collection called Re-ment: Rilakkuma Yumemiru Hoshi no […]

Sanrio: Re-Ment Cookie Mascot (2009, Partial Set)

In which I finally start digging into older stuff to organize The Mooon and rediscover a milestone set. It seems like any plans I make don’t work out the way I expected them to, yet they still work out, just in a form I didn’t anticipate. One of the original goals of this blog was […]

Sumikko Gurashi: Mogura Funwari Plush

In which I can never get enough mole, but still…. I’m on the record as being extremely pro-mole; they’re my favorite animal, and I got into Sumikko Gurashi at first because I thought there was a possibility Tonkatsu could be a mole when I very first saw him, and then I was double pleased to […]

Pokemon: Wicked Cool Toys Pokemon Advent Calendar

In which I inadvertently pick up a hot item and end up ridiculously happy with things. I finally broke down and bought a Switch over Thanksgiving, and while I was already at Target spending money I don’t have on things I don’t need, I figured I may as well add one more item — this […]

Sumikko Gurashi: Re-ment Funwari Mocchiri Yakitate Panyasan

In which we mix Sumikko, bakery goods and Re-ment for an unsurprisingly tasty treat. I’m still puzzling through the realities of the relationship between Sumikko and Re-ment. I’ve mentioned in other blog entries that I’ve always assumed that licensed character Re-ment sets are of lower quality, but I’ve been going through a lot of Pokemon […]

Sumikko Gurashi: Ebi Furai no Shippo Tenori Plush Gift

In which a shrimpy little gift gives me a great big smile. As I’ve been trying not to bite my fingernails off while we waited for election stuff, I got so behind I wasn’t even unboxing things coming in the mail. Since things have calmed down a bit, the tiniest of bits but a bit […]

Pokemon: Re-ment Tsunagete Cord Keeper Three

In which at least I get some cute Pokemon out of a probably-foolish spending decision. The hubs and I were talking the other day about “Cord Keeper” type figures, and when these Re-ment Pokemon Tsunagete Cord Keeper 3 figures went on sale at amiami (from a regular price around $42 to a sale price around […]

San-x: Kokoroaraiguma and Ashiaraiguma Plush

In which I still can’t get enough of these two soft little raccoons. I haven’t exactly been shy about my love for the newish San-x characters Kokoroaraiguma and Ashiaraiguma, so I had to include some goodies from them in my latest amiami order. In this entry, I thought I’d review the plush, which are nothing […]

Pokemon: Megahouse GEM Figure Ghost Type Daishuugou

In which I splurge and am relieved the result is awesome. I’m not sure if there’s a behavioral specialist alive that could understand my spending habits. I’ll spend hundreds of dollars on character goods and miniatures, but big money single purchases freak me out. I generally avoid figures in the hundred dollar range, but I […]
