It's been a few weeks...and apparently that Mewtwo bath buddy is rare?
I've finally decided to break down and do another collection update.  I saved up all my updates since I didn't really want to spam the community since I've been getting a lot lately.  Anyway, on to the gets!

I'll start off with things I already had that I forgot about.  A lot of my old toys got shoved into storage, many of them being Pokemon (sad, I know, but my parents put them in there).  I haven't even pulled all of it out I bet, but here's what I got so far...




I found a box of old keychains and possibly booty figures I used to collect.  I don't even know if these are all of them or not.

I also found this Elekid zip-up Pokeball Transformer thing.  I'm glad the mice didn't chew on it...

Also found a bunch of my old BK toys.  Gotta love the first movie toys.

Mewtwo freaking lights up.  That is pretty boss compared to our lenticular rockers and stuff they're giving out now.

Oh spit, can it be?

It is!  It's the original BK Mew!  This made a great addition to my Mew collection :D

Anyway, now for the things I've actually bought recently...

My mom got me this Palkia BK box online since we missed the promotion D:  Isn't she the best mom ever?

I won this in a lot of the signboard plushes on ebay.  It's one of my favorite Mew plushies :o

Also found this on ebay.  I didn't realize until today that it's missing its tail, but it talks, so it doesn't matter.

I found a store with the clipping figures that's relatively close to where I live, so I ended up somehow getting Rotom.

I may not like Heracross as much as Rotom, but it does look pretty boss.

Can you get much more random than Grotle?  I mean, I understand they did Turtwig in a previous series, but still...


I ended up buying some Keshipokes (which I think are overpriced), and got the one I wanted for my girlfriend in the first one I opened, then kept the Rotom forms for myself since I have a Rotom fetish.


Got these 2 in another Ebay lot.  Pikachu just teabags every piece of Pokemon merchandise, doesn't it?

Another ebay lot with some figures my mom found.  I need more Pikachus...



Squirtle's a bath buddy, Turtwig got severely raped, and Chatot's just completely random.

Another one of the clipping figures.  I was going to give this to my girlfriend, but she didn't want it, so now I have it.


This looks like the pokedoll, but it is not.  I call it Spock because I got a Spock toy from BK when I first tried to get the Pokemon toys for their current promotion.

Here's more stuff from ebay :o

This random Squirtle came with some others of its kind.  I think the others were Pikachu and Charmander.

My mom got this, but holy crap...

She scored May's Bulbasaur holding a potted plant!  That's freaking awesome!

Mom also found a 100% legit Spiritomb Pokedoll.

It even has the odd keystone design on its keystone :o

Spiritomb pr0nz UNCE UNCE UNCE

Also scored the finger puppet set on ebay (removed from its box for a better pic).  My girlfriend wanted Jirachi, Lugia, and Deoxys, I basically like the rest of the front row ans maybe Darkrai, and I'm not sure if I'll consider selling Lucario and Manaphy or not.  My girlfriend and I have set up a store from which we will be selling various merchandise we no longer need, do not want, or bought just for you guys since not everyone is able to get a lot of the things that stores near where I live stock.

I bought out HIlltop's last TFG figures then proceeded to buy (and I'm ashamed) some booty from the mall.  I COULDN'T HELP MYSELF ;--;
The Lugia isn't really that bad, though, and Entei and Dialga are only slightly discolored, while Chikorita looks pretty legit.

Here's what my room looked like last night since my collection's been moved up there, but I bought more of those organizers today and totally expanded them.

Here's my current plushy collection with its token Pikachu clusterduck.  I just got that Torchic and the Blastoise recently as well.  I think I liek Torchikz.

Grail corner!  I like Mews a lot now.  My favorite one is that one my girlfriend made me and slipped surreptitiously into my pocket without me even realizing for a while ;o

Ugh, the Palkias are so cramped ;--;  SAUSAGE FEST!  But seriously, these are part of why I got the new organizers; Palkia deserves much more respect than this >.>

I was shining an extra lamp on these the whole time I took these pix.  My Giratina collection hasn't grown since fanime.

These guys were roommates for a while since they're some of my smallest collections (notice I linked Magnezone and Azelf just cause chou gets link?  I'm one of those people who likes putting things together, like Legos) ;o

More rommates!  I eventually had to split them up because Spiritomb kept beating up Mewtwo >.>

Here's the rest of the stuff I found in storage so far.  Th eonly thing I really like in there is the Zapdos masterball (the white thing with scuff marks)  I might sell the rest later on.  There's a Meowth Pokeball NIP as you can see.


Figurine collection (with random Chinese cat that I forgot was on the table when I took the pic)  Again, I might end up selling some, but I havent' decided yet...

I erradicated my manga collection so I could put these up on the shelf.  Again, I might consider selling some, but I'm a completionist, which is why I keep clipping figures like Tropius and Machamp.

So this is what I got today at this awesome store near me.  I decided to sell that Pokeball and its contents since I'm not really a fan of what came with it.  Well, I might just sell the keychain since I need a coin bank... Nah, I have a piggy bank.  Anyway, I'm sort of torn on torchic since I just got it so I could save 50 cents on Entei (2 for $5)

I like Chimchar, but I prefer Torchic :/

Japanese prize Palkia :o  I saw the Dialga counterpart on that one collection that's entitled Dialgas FTW and ended up wanting this Palkia.  I was fortunate enough to find it today :D

This was the best kid they actually still had in stock at the store I went to and I'm surprised they even had it.  An awesome addition to my new Entei collection ;o

I literally bought all the Pokedolls the store had, but Togekiss is the only one I'm keeping for myself.  Gotta love Togekiss.

Here are the two best toys Burger King is doing right now: the lenticular rockers.  I also like the Regigigas card holder, but the only other toys I got were the card holders.

Here are my newly expanded organizers with my rearranged collection.  The organizers are extremely annoying to put together let alone to add on to others of a slightly different kind, but I'd rather buy those than the expensive wooden ones.

Palkia's finally getting the respect it deserves, although I probably should have raised my phone camera's resolution and the lighting is still terrible.

These plushies randomly moved over here because they're some of my favorites.  I might move Torchic, but I'm still not sure if I want to start collecting Torchics or not since I'm already broke enough as it is.

I decided to use the Skymin lenticular rocker to hold my Mew sticker since I'm not much of an avid Shaymin collector at all.  I would have put Mews above Palkias, but due to the infrastructure of these organizers, I was forced to put them on a lower level.

Giragins in their new home with a random ipod thing in front of Abel's face.  Abel is so inept at standing up...

Spiritombs got moved in with Azelfs and Magmortars.  I don't really plan on expanding any of their collections, but may if I find anything really nice.

Groudons and Mewtwos get along extremely well since there are no type advantages between them.  I also found the Mewtwo bath buddy in storage.

Here are my newly emerging Rotom and Entei collections.  I didn't feel like removing the puppet from its home, so that's why the Entei collection looks so sparse.

As if those aren't enough for one person to have, I still have more coming in the mail that I have not yet received, although I know that some of the people who I bought from recently have already sent their packages, so I look forward to receiving them soon :]

Insert awkward ending here!

Now all I need is the capsule that Mewtwo came in, but I don't know what happened to it :/
The lenticular rockers are okay and I like the cards, but I would totally prefer figurines the way they used to do or even the kind of thing they did for 2nd gen

Yeah, I'm pretty sure my mom got seriously lucky finding the legit Spiritomb pokedoll and I actually got those keshipoke at this book store, but they're like $5.55 each, so I preferred buying clipping figures :/

Ooh, okay. Well, for the regular, there are plain regular and clear regular (which I talked a bit about in my other post, but that was weeks ago x_X ), so if I see that or cut (which I am also looking for myself), I'll be sure to let you know ;o

Of course ;D I'll do a collection update and include them ;o I think I still have to get sales permission, so I'll look into that as soon as possible (aka when I can find time when I'm not studying; it's almost finals week and some of my teachers want to get the tests over with early)

They all look booty to me, but then I opened up a package of old Hasbro mystery figures and they're also discolored, so maybe that was just the thing back then O__o
I have no attachment to Slowbro, so it might end up on the sale site my girlfriend and I are going to do this summer ;o

They're great systems- except when the joins fall off...

They were at the Kinokuniya bookstore in San Jose, CA ;o
They also have a San Francisco location, but it doesn't have as many toys (and the San Jose one is where my girlfriend found the Lickilicky Zukan in the clearance rack for only $1)

Wow, that's quite the collection!

Good LORD I wish I could buy keshi and clipping around here. Zukan, even. I LOVE LOVE LOVE random toys, and you don't find them TOO often in the US, let alone of something I would actively want, haha.

I should have bought out the pokemon center when I was in Japan. ; A; I intended to not open the three keshi I bought, but the excitement got to me in the hotel room.
