Get Your Sailor Moon Fix on Ebay!

Wednesday, May 16th, 2012

Sometimes I just like to check up on my girl Sailor Moon and see if she has any good stuff listed on the ebays. o^o

Pardon the quality of the photos here, I’m just grabbing them from the Ebay results and you know how those go…

Sailor Moon 6 PVC Figures

LADIES.

These figures are a little on the small side, but they’d make a great display!!

Black Lady is cool I wanna see more figures of her. o3o

Sailor Moon Princess Moon Wand Toy

Man, do I ever regret that I never got these back when they were available in US toy stores.

Thankfully, Sailor Moon being licensed again means that some of these toys are being produced again. n_n

Oh, but this listing looks to be an imported toy, now that I’m looking at the text on the packaging! :O

5 Sailor Moon 6″ Dolls with Vehicle & Motorcycle Moon Cycle

Ah, yes, the Moon Cycle. How fondly we all recall that most faithful vehicle and the copious amount of screen time it had.

I actually had two of these bizarrely-molded little dolls. :O Sailor Moon and Sailor Jupiter are sitting right on my bookshelf. 😀 They were among the only merch that was within my parent’s price range at the time. ;3;

We’re not even going to touch on the Pink Ranger’s motorcycle pictured there.

Sailor Moon Henshin Wand, Pen, and Stick Cosplay Props (Sailor Mercury)

These are NOT licensed products, but are replica props made by someone named Moon Justice. They’re very accurate! If I were cosplaying Sailor Mercury, I would totally love to have this set! :O

Sailor Moon Collectible Doll Set

:O!!

I have never seen this set before, ever!

Those are some mighty fancy-looking uniforms!

Monster High Dolls

Wednesday, May 9th, 2012

I have a small confession to make… I don’t really know a lot about these dolls!

I see them ALL OVER THE PLACE, though! They’ve definitely become popular, notably among young women my own age. They seem to appeal to the crowd that loves ball-jointed dolls (BJD), and I see these Monster High girls being used as bases for custom dolls a lot.

I was snooping around to find out more about them, and thought I’d share a few of the cute ones as one of my daily shopping blog posts! ^o^

Monster High Sweet 1600 Doll – Draculaura

This doll was the first one to catch my eye! She’s cute, in a Hot Topic sort of way.

I like her flouncy dress, and the colorful streaks in her hair. It’s hard to tell from the pictures, but I think they might be metallic/tinsel streaks, too!

Monster High Doll – Nefera De Nile

I was wondering what was “monstrous” about a Cleopatra-inspired doll, but I think I realize now that she might be a mummy?

What struck me was that brilliant aqua color scheme. n_n I love it!

Monster High Sweet 1600 Doll – Frankie Stein

Okay, I think I am unfairly biased in favor of the Sweet 1600 line of dolls.

It’s the poofy dresses! I cannot resist them!

The other thing I’m realizing about these dolls is that they all have FABULOUS hair.

Monster High Friends Plush Doll – Spectra Vondergeist and Rhuen

Awwww!! What a cuuuuute little plush doll! And totally not possessed-looking at all.

Give her cuddles OR ELSE!! O_O

Monster High Freaky Streaky Locks Hair Glitter Set

WHAT DID I JUST SAY ABOUT THEIR FABULOUS HAIR

And does anyone remember my ultimate weakness?? Come on, I’m sure I mention it in ever other one of these shopping posts.

IT’S GLITTER

HOW COULD I NOT POST THIS

The Cutest Barbie Dollhouses & Playsets

Tuesday, May 1st, 2012

MORE BARBIE

LOL it probably looks like I’m repeating posts here, but I’ve actually got this list of categories that I refer to when I make these posts, the order of which is randomly generated, so sometimes similar categories are near each other. XD

But last time I wrote about Barbie, I featured the newest dolls that were available on Amazon. This time, I’m showcasing playsets!

A scene for your dolls to act in adds a whole new dimension of imaginative play! X3 Growing up, I didn’t have a dollhouse for my Barbies, but I still built scenes out of shoeboxes and other props! XD I would have DIIIIED if I could have any of these luxurious playsets I’m featuring here. o^o

BARBIE® Glam Vacation House

THIS is the exact thing I would have looooved to own when I was little. I would have spent hours just admiring all the tiny little details.

Can we talk about how fabulous this would be as an actual vacation house? The hot-pink-and-zebra-print bed rests on a loft, with a scrolling rail in front of it personalized with your own initial… and there’s a chandelier over it.

BARBIE HAIRTASTIC COLOR & WASH SALON

I was always totally in love with all of the Barbie dolls that had changing hair colors, but my Mom never let me get them. XD

Probably was afraid I’d make a mess with them… and probably right.

BARBIE BED TO BREAKFAST Bedroom + Doll

GPOY…

I do everything from my bed. XD

BARBIE 3 Story DREAMHOUSE

HOOOOMG…

If the Vacation House was something I’d pine for as a kid, THIS HOUSE

would be the one that I’d stare at in the toy store, knowing that it would never, ever be mine. ;_;

It has an elevator. AN ELEVATOR!!

BARBIE PRINCESS CHARM SCHOOL Pop-Up Canopy Carriage

ONCE AGAIN, SAVING THE PONIES FOR LAST. ♥

Princess Charm School is another cgi Barbie movie that I haven’t seen yet.

Man, every time I post these, I get a hankerin’ to watch more of those. 6_6

Cute Tamagotchi Finds on Ebay!

Sunday, April 29th, 2012

You remember Tamagotchi, don’t you?? What you might not have known that it’s still around, and has quite a franchise running for it in Japan! Not only are toys (including virtual pets) still in production, but there are also a couple different anime series and a movie!

I just adore these cute critters and the crazy, colorful world they live in. o^o I really admire the art style in their toys, Flash game spaces, and cartoons. I hunted down a handful of items available on Ebay to showcase just how fun these little Tamas are!

We are also trying something new layout-wise here! Love it? Hate it? Comment and let me know~ o3o

TAMAGOTCHI ID L PINK
(Also available in lavender!)This is the ultra fabulous Tamagotchi ID L, the latest toy available in Japan. The screen is in full color and there are more characters available than everrrrr before!

Note that the language will be in Japanese! Take care when thinking about buying it.

Hopefully we’ll see a color Tamagotchi on our shores someday soon. :3 And hopefully it will be as blinged-out and fab as this.

Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 3There have been several Tamagotchi video games, and this one on the Nintendo DS is the most recent.

The Corner Shop games are mainly mini-game driven, but there is quirky craziness to the art style as is the norm in Tamagotchi land.

Hmmm… I might have to check this game out. It’s giving me inspiration to do another This Game I’m Playing… :3

TAMAGOTCHI TALKING NAKAYOSHI LOVELITCHI/LOVELIN PLUSH DOLLO___O CUUUUUUTE!!

Lovelitchi is one of my absolute favorite characters in the Tama universe. She has a super secret magical idol identity named Lovelin, which is what this is a plush of. :3

IT TALKS APPARENTLY… I wonder what it says?? :O

I want this really bad. ;__;

Tamagotchi Tamatown Tama-Go Memetchi Purple VersionThat is a mouthful. @_@

Anyway, this is the most recent English-version virtual pet toy. They were available in stores like Toys R Us pretty recently, but I haven’t seen them there lately. ;_;

Sadly they don’t have a color screen, but there are tons of characters you can get plus a whole lot of random events that can trigger.

The cool/unique thing about the Tama-Go was that you could collect these Gotchi Figure toys that clicked on to the top of the device, and each character unlocked bonus minigames and a shop where you could buy unique items. I have a blue Memetchi Tama-Go and Gotchi Figures of Violetchi and Chamametchi – I have had hours of fun playing with them!! ^o^

Tamagotchi Tamatown Full Set of Gotchi FiguresAnd heeeeere is a listing for every single Gotchi Figure ever!! @_@

I didn’t even know about some of these! I would love to get Makiko and Kuromametchi. :O

Woo hoo!! Looking up these items was fun.

Hopefully I’ve convinced you now that Tamagotchi is totally adorable. :3

Newest Barbie Dolls

Monday, April 23rd, 2012

Barbie is a lady I spent an awful lot of time when I was growing up. :3 In my adult years, I appreciate her all the more! I haven’t stopped admiring Barbie dolls at all, and always make a trip down that shockingly pink aisle whenever I’m paying a visit to the toy store.

Here are the latest listings on Amazon showcasing the newest dolls in the lineup.

Barbie in A Mermaid Tale 2 Merliah Transforming Doll

Mermaid Tale 2 is the newest CG Barbie movie that’s been released. And yup, I’ll admit it… I watch them sometimes. . 3.

I like the warm sunrise-y colors of this doll! Especially the streaks in her hair! n3n

Barbie In a Mermaid Tale 2 Mermaid Doll and Sea Lion Pet Set

Another doll from the new movie. The mold of her face is different, but kind of cute!

And I thought the sea lion coated in glitter was just fabulous.

Barbie Flower ‘N Flutter Fairy Barbie Doll

The colors!! *o* THOSE WINGS!!! *O*

Okay so the fantasy and fairy scenarios are my favorites if you couldn’t tell…

But the details are what’s important! I thought her face sculpt was super pretty and… LOOK AT THOSE SHOES!!

Barbie Princess Fantasy Dress Up Doll

Wuahh if I still played with Barbies, I would soooooo be all over this little collection. ;~; The designs of those dresses are just perfect.

Reminds me so much of the fantasy adventures I’d come up with for my dolls. This one wardrobe inspires so many stories for adventurous fairy princesses~

Barbie Princess Unicorn – Purple
(There is also a pink one)

OHMYGOSH LOOK AT THIS PONY. OAO IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL.

gwhfwgszfwgggggggggggghhw unicorns.

You guys. You don’t even know. O__O

Okay.

Okay that was almost too exciting for me.

Now I need to take a Barbie break before I just… spend all of my money. oAo

Maybe I’ll watch another one of her movies…………………….
