⇢ #55 . . Backside of the TV Lotus Juice Remix | collection arranging 16 / 4 / 2024

for this haul it's mostly smaller plushies and pics of my trying to arrange all the keychains and trinkets I've hoarded !-!

I recently bought a bunch of charmmy kitties including two really cute keychains! They are charmmy figures on top of a small macaron shaped pillow (I think macarons are cute deserts but I can't tolerate eating them u_u). I've developed a habit of looking through sold listings on ebay to add plushies to my sanrio wishlist and charmmy has so many nice ones that I'll probably never find at a decent price _(:3\)

my favorite of this haul is this cute cat plush. I looked it up and its from a children's book released in 2003 published by PuniPuni HOUSE and made by the author Hall (I think, I can't find much info online) called "Nekopanchu, I'm always by your side". It caught my eye because of how cute the character design is! The large fish as a hair accessory is adorable.

There seems to be two books in the series and I'm actually interested in buying physical copies the next time I get around to making a proxy buy @_@

The cat holding an instrument is named Shima (described as a liberal & optimistic cat on her character description), and she's from a series of picture books produced by Green Camel (the company you see on the tags of a lot of san-x plushies)

Last is this glasses cat character is named Okaapon and he is from a TV series called Moopon! I found a list of plushies from the same set and I'm quite tempted to add them to my wishlist since I'm a sucker for cat plushies @_@

my current loppy bunny collection! small because my balking price for these is around 1USD. I have several plush sets / characters I'm collecting that I limit spending to about 1USD each and I got some additions to each of those collections @_@
my current 1USD collections are: loppy bunny, nameko, mokeke, craftholic, and yuru-charas (though I'm willing to pay slightly more for yuru-charas depending on the mascot)

the additions to my mokeke and nameko collection

some trinkets including a rody bundle that I got at a good price

I recently sorted through my keychain collection! I have way more than what's in the pic _(:3\). On average I spend about 0.50USD / 80JPY on each charm but I recently bought about 200+ gashapons recently (most were keychains but some mini figures were included) for around 0.09USD / 14JPY each so my collection has bloated a ton ~_~

I display my favorites on a rack that's meant to display glasses hahaa, it's mostly video game related charms (sonic, parappa, tamagotchi, etc.), sanrio or san-x, moomin, and hamtaro.

Last update to my collection are all my pinky monkey! I've been lucky to find it so frequently in the wild. On average less than 1USD / 150JPY for the charm sized ones and the most expensive ones cost about 3USD / 475JPY-ish.

⇢ #54 . . Pale Watchers | sanrio, stationary stuff, something something 21 / 3 / 2024

small-ish haul of stuff I got lately! mostly stationary stuff and (mostly sanrio) plush charms. One of my favorites from this haul is the little hello kitty miniature blender! It actually works too.

Among my mini plush charms I got one of my favorite yuru-charas, melon bear! I've been trying to make a page dedicated to my favorite yuru-chara designs but have so many other pages I need to work on I keep neglecting it @_@

I got a bunch of smaller sanrio plushies recently. I'm currently trying to get a set of these smaller ones that are hk dressed in an animal costume and I've been using this mercari listing as reference for ones I need to look for.

The gudetama is the first gudetama plush I've gotten! I also got this melody plush I've never seen in this design before and can't find more info online _(:3\)

More sanrio stuff, I got a sanrio eva air airplane (I think I got a smaller moomin plane a while back too) that's really cute @_@, I don't really collect miniatures of aircraft/vehicles/etc. but they make really cute props so I might search for some more. I also got this really cute (might be vintage?) Jimmy plush for under 1USD!

arranging and sorting through gashapon toys I've collected

I got a lot of random stationary stuff because I've been looking for more vintage sanrio stationary / school or office supplies. And! I randomly found some CDs at rock bottom price including two higurashi CDs! I've not played any of the visual novels. though I absolutely love the original art style the vn had.

also got random trinkets and cute sanrio cups

⇢ #53 . . Carpenter Brut - Roller Mobster | mostly sanrio (and more gashapons!) 27 / 2 / 2024

I can't believe it's not san-x this time and instead my sanrio hoarding u_u

I've been super focused on san-x lately but I got some sanrio items lately too! The dark blue and red striped hks are pouches (they are wearing backpacks) and my favorite of the plushies, the mermaid, I didn't realize till' I looked closely is actually battery operated! The battery area is a bit damaged so I'm not sure if I can get it to work though. I also got a random jewelpet plush.

I made a sanrio tier list a while back and hk was mid to me but she's obviously the easiest to find plushies of + is usually at a lower price point than say, a sugarbunny, so she's beating other characters in terms of plushies owned. I still wouldn't put her in my top 5 (maybe even 10!) sanrio characters but she just has so many nice plushies it's hard to resist _(:3\)

Also random merch but I got a little bin and what I think is a lint remover? I didn't look at the box too closely ngl, just thought it was a cute thing to have.

I can't make a diary post without an addition to my san-x hoard it seems u_u

My best find are those two hermit crab plushies (sadly missing their shells!). They were made in collaboration with an Aqua World, Oarai Aquarium (I think). Their names are Yadorin-chan and Yadopon-kun!

I also got a bunch of sumikkos, mamegomas, a very cute momo panda, kerori, and a handful of non san-x plushies.

...I also got more gashapons. Ended up getting a ton of food keychains this time but quite happy to receive more sanrio and tamagotchis this time.

random cheburashkas I got

some namekos, totoros, and a cute gromit that needs some washing :)

I finally got this lion miffy character I've been seeking for a while! I've been trying to collect these palm sized plushies of miffy characters and I kept seeing the jumbo versions instead _(:3\)
I have a plush of the cat too and a larger sized version of the elephant but they're somewhere else currently.

Lastly I got a cute tama & friends plush (I'd like to get one of each tama & friends characters too but not sure where I could display them) and this adorable jun planning Jack Skellington plush *-* I didn't know jun planning produced plushies so it was a very pleasant surprise to see the tag.

I currently have a small pochi, two toras, and beh is the one above

⇢ #52 . . Ichiko Aoba - Pochette No Outa | KOGEPAN MOUNTAIN (and gashapons) 12 / 2 / 2024

my kogepan hoard has grown!!

Some of these I had not included in the last haul so I could gather them all together for this one in one huge kogepan mountain @_@ I'm still sad I've not been able to find certain characters but I'll take what I can get. I have some plushies in storage so I can hopefully pickup some strawberry pan plushies since I mostly own kogepn, some kireipan, and a sad number of melonpans u_u

baked pans

Also managed to get some nyan nyan nyankos! The one that's a sliced pie might be my favorite of all the nyankos I own right now. There's also a wind chime charm I got.

closeup of my pans + my jumbo one!

i also got a large mikan bouya plush and a funny graduate amaguri-chan

also speaking of hoards I decided to arrange all my charm plushies and here's most of what I've amassed so far! Some new and some from previous hauls. On average I spent about 0.50USD on each? I typically don't spend more than 1USD on them unless they're from a brand or series I really like (e.g. Sanrio or San-X).

Some postpets! Not sure why but I got into a postpet mood and started collecting a bunch of them. I've too many of Momo so I'm hoping to find the other ones in the wild (no such luck so far, it's almost always Momo). I'm quite keen on either Mippi or Furo.

Also got some random pompoms (and a pompom look alike) and a loppy bunny.

random but I found someone selling gashapon items in bulk and bought a ton (they were about 0.09USD / 14JPY). I'm pretty happy I got some tamagotchi ones! The kinnikuman figure is nice too.

⇢ #51 . . Vashti Bunyan - If I Were - Same But Different | San-x Mountain 2 / 2 / 2024

I've been ramping up collecting san-x so this is my huge san-x haul as of late T_T. I also got lucky and scored two new sugarbunnies! My goal is to collect all the small heartland plushies (the ones that fit on your palm) so I'm one (shirousa) step closer!

I don't see myself completing it anytime soon though since some bunnies just go for atrocious prices but I've been lucky enough so far so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I can dream at least.

I also bought more random toro inoue mcdonalds plush, a recorder plush, and two san-x characters I've never seen before! I'm trying to catalogue all of the san-x characters (because I'm trying to get one of each) and these ones are part of Miira Usagi Mummy (the one on the left is Mummy and the other is Okabba).

This is the mountain of new san-x plushies I got (some I think were in the last few hauls, I just piled them all together). I prefer smaller plushies so I'm happy to get at least a charm sized plush of any san-x character I can get! The ones I like the most (and wouldn't mind getting doubles of) are mamegomas, nyankos, and kogepans T_T

These ones are the highlight of my haul! I got each of these buru buru dogs for less than 10USD each (one of them is a massager? it vibrates when you press the center of the head). The shiawase nyanko I got for cheap because it has some damage to the back of its wings (don't think I can fix it, unfortunately but it's not too bad)

I also found a character a new character (that I don't own yet) from the Mokomoko Ferret series. The one I got is an ermine named Okojo.

more mamegomas and kerori plushies + some other san-x characters



closeup of buru buru dogs

chocopas! one of my new favorite san-x characters

Some more kogepans and afro kens to add to my hoard + a potehamu! I don't think I have a ton of melonpans in my kogepan collection so I was pretty happy to snatch new ones. My current kogepan goals are getting sumipan and a chocopan (though I've not looked up any of their plushies yet if they have any, which reminds me I need to fix up my san-x pages T_T)

I was pretty stoked to see theese two chihuahua plushies as a set in the wild. They are from Tohoho no Inu (a series about animals who are stuck in household objects like masking tape rolls or tires; this one is stuck in a tambourine)

The one on the right... I have no idea who. Found it in a random lot of plushies and seller didn't label it. From looking at the character index it miiight be a mikan bouya character called house mikan? He's crying in his official art though so. Not sure!

Also another series (not san-x) that I'm trying to collect! A lot cheaper to find than a good chunk of san-x characters (it's not super in demand) at least.

sumikkos, a monokuro boo plush container, and some characters I don't have yet.
