The Holidays

To begin with, huge apology's as always, for my lack of posts lately. Christmas time is exhausting for me(the heat here isn't helping) & I'm only just finally feeling like myself again.
Anyway, I thought the easiest solution to this big gap of updates, is a giant post about everything new! So, lets get started.

An appropriate place to start, my new Brad McGinty shirt. Periodcally I go back & buy more from him. Last year he released his Kaiju Santa design on cards(I bought 5) this year he released it on a t-shirt, limited edition. I HAD to preorder one! BY far the greatest x-mas shirt I've ever owned. I wore it 4 times over the holiday season. A few little extras were tossed into my package too, always makes me happy!

I bought myself a couple of little items for Christmas. Didn't have much money to spare, but these purchases were spontaneous & are greatly loved. One awesome My Little Unicorn from Rampage Toys to hang on my bag & another 'Be My Slave' toy by Superdeux for my VERY slowly growing collection.

Superdeux - Stereotype - Be My Slave - Nami

Rampage Toys - Micro Bobble - My Little Unicorn

Of course, in addition to all the items I bought for myself, I acquired some epic gifts this year. I'm a hugely materialistic person, gifts are what Christmas is all about for me(both giving & receiving), this year, was a good one.
I had a few friends send me gifts this year, along with my familys Secret Santa & my own annual x-mas gathering, overall I acquire a nice little hoard.

My Secret Santa gift

That's not quite everything(there's more dvds, kitchen items etc.), tragically the batteries in my camera died while I attempted to take more photos. I think those 4 photos sum-up the awesomeness of my gifts this year however!
The red arrow shelf is probably my favourite gift of the year, I had wanted it badly. Once I get it hung, I'll be covering it in toys. I promise to snap some photos.
I have a couple of others toys on their way(money to spend online, a gift from my roommate) but I'll post about them when they arrive. Expect many more blog posts this week however, as I'd created a bit of a back-log for myself over the holidays season.
Hope everyone had a great Christmas & Happy New Year!

PEZ & Other Things

So, as you may or may not know, I also collect PEZ. I recently received an order of them(plan to take a break from PEZ shopping for a while now) & just thought I'd share a photo with you all(apologies for my carpet, apparently it looks even worse in photos then in real life).

Not a bad addition to my collection, pretty sure I'm all caught up with my Star Wars PEZ now, so that's nice. The barbie boxset is a little outside of my taste, but I really hate falling too far behind on boxsets & I figured if I was getting the KISS one, might as well just get both! Of course, it's taken me about 3days to clean & reorganise my PEZ collection. Still got another 20 or so ninja turtle PEZ to set up. It's such a tedious process.

Besides PEZ I haven't received anything new for a week or so(waiting on a few items however). So I thought I'd share one of the items I wish I could buy right now.
Scott Wilkowskis AlphaInvader & MicroInfection set.

For only $40, a beautiful set. I've heard that Wilkowskis smaller work is hard to find once it sells out, so I'm hoping I can pull the funds together soon(really sick of saving) before they sell out.

I have a few other 'wants' I may share in the future, but hopefully I'll have a few new toys in my own collection to share in the coming weeks. As always, apologies for being such a terrible procrastinator when it comes to my blog(& most other aspects of my life), it's been a 'lazy week' in my world.
