Pokemon TCG: Tins, Coins etc3/20/2019 It's been a bit again but I am not made of money and collecting loves to feed on your wallet. But I managed to save enough to get a big Pokemon stash together from ChaosCards and over of the UK version of Amazon. I love Gengar. I love him so much so I had to get the Gengar EX box. I don't quite remember when my love for him started or when I just fell in love with the Ghost/Dark Pokemon in general but I love them a lot and yet there's such a lack f merch for them. But not as little as the number of merchandise for Raichu, my ultimate love haha.

SHINee2/6/2018 Okay, I managed to get my website back after I stupidly forgot my password to it but Weebly (on twitter) really acted fast and got it back so thanks to them once more! There was also another reason why I've been super quiet and that's because of the passing of Kim Jonghyun who, for those who don't know, was both a massive inspiration to me musically but personally as well because his words and what he chose to stand for was so incredibly helpful for me when I was going through one of the darkest periods of my life and granted, I'm still at the early stages of my darkest periods but he was just...well important is the only word I can really think of at this moment. I just hope that his family and the rest of SHINee are doing as okay as they can possibly be right now because it's still not even two months. I would go into how much this man, the rest of SHINee and their words mean to me but this post wouldn't ever end. So I'm just going to quickly jump into my favourite Christmas present which, funnily enough, has to do with SHINee and it's from my little sister. When I got this present it was actually on the day that we found out what had happened to Jonghyun and we were both a mess. She went into her room and handed me the gift and said "I don't want you to be crying on Christmas when you open this," It turned out to be my favourite SHINee World tour, number 4. kpop: Vixx Haul6/17/2017 I have finally finally managed to get all of Vixx's albums from yesasia. I will point out that I was petrified to order it from that site because of so many stupid comments online but I can assure you guys that they are reliable and they took great care with the products with layers of bubblewrap and such. It does take a while for the things to arrive but you will just have to be patient. I think I had to wait about two weeks and a couple of days? But they are coming from Korea and the postal service to get it all the way over to the UK is a bit of a bitch. THIS IS A VERY LONG POST! Way longer than I was expecting (that's what she said). Zelda collectings3/23/2017 I have loved this series since I was a kid and it bothers me so much that I don't have a lot of merch for the franchise. However I found a bit of a bargain and I've been wanting to customise my 3DS with little things like cases and stylus'. I would buy face-plates but my lord are they expensive and flimsy. Jonghyun9/11/2016 I have been a fan of Korean and Japanese music for a very long while now and for my birthday my little sister gave me a great little treat that involves one of my favourite Korean stars. She got me his newest album all shiny and new! The case won't be uploaded simply because Weebly seems to be having an issue with the photo size? Which is just...odd. pEGGY Carter & Howard Stark7/29/2016 Well, unfortunately I am another year older but I have gotten some more treats to show you all! If you follow me on Tumb1r then you most probably know that I am more than a little fond of Hayley Atwell, who plays Peggy Carter and Dominic Cooper, who plays Howard Stark. Both are lovely people with big personalities and wonderful outlooks on how to improve media diversity. It also helps that I greatly admire both Peggy and Hayley respectively. My mother managed to snag their autographs at a legitimate shop. Finally managed to get my Xerneas and Yveltal tins and I just love the Pokémon tins so much, the design and the sheer fact that they're damn useful to have around even for other TCGs if you don't have a place to store cards. Anyway. I also ordered a Trainer Kit which is actually promoted by Sylveon and Noivern; I thought this was a slightly weird choice of Pokémon but there we go, I don't work for Pokémon. I then just gathered up three blisters to get the promotional cards, pins, coins and just more cards in general. Now the pins that I got were from the blisters and my god are they a bloody treat to look at, I have never ever gotten Pokémon pins before because I just didn't want to spend money on blisters but I'm glad I chose to get them and I love the little detail of the textured Pokéballs on the back of them. Probably should say that the pins are of Xerneas and Yveltal. The coins are of Dialga and on the other coin we have a collection of Fennekin, Froakie and Chespin. The promo cards that I managed to get were Xerneas EX, Yveltal EX, Noivern, Sylveon and Gyarados and they're now sitting very safely in the Xerneas and Yveltal sleeves......in one of the older tins. Just A Moan4/29/2014 Just saying that it's incredibly annoying to live in the UK as almost all of the Flash Fire set has currently been delayed on all of the card sites that I follow.
Ever so slightly irritating. Doctor Who Collections: TCG4/15/2014 Monster Invasion Set I managed to find out where to get some cheap Doctor Who tcg tins, decorated with the monsters 'The Silence' it's a pretty damn good looking tin if you ask me which I only paid a little over four pounds for (I have no idea what that is in dollars, please don't ask). It came with five booster packs of 'Monster Invasion' with a special 'Autograph' card which is basically a card made out to look like the actual characters have signed the card and in rather attractive gold lettering. It's an odd addition but a very good addition all the same. I also like the fact that the Doctor Who tins come with some sort of protection for the cards if you decide to keep them in the tins, unfortunately not many tcg do this and it's so frustrating when trying to keep the cards in good condition. But overall I am thrilled with this purchase and I'm so happy to have finally found a reasonably priced tin of this particular card set; I simply got fed up with having to by the bloody card game magazine just to get a single booster pack so I decided to get the tins instead, they just carry more booster packs and they're a wonderful collectors item. I have kept all of the cards in my tin and I've already ordered them etc Nothing too exciting in the packs but I did manage to pull the Fourth and Fifth Doctor out of them and to be perfectly honest I am much more interested in getting the Doctors and the classic Assistants.
