On Tuesday I received a parcel containing 9 DPPT era gacha balls with 1/40 Zukan figures! The "Diamond Pearl Edition" balls (of which I got 2) are also known as Zukan DP02. The "Diamond Pearl Dialga Edition" ones are Zukan DP03. From the former I was especially hoping to get the Starly set, and also wanted the Turtwig set. From the latter I wanted the Eevee/Leafeon/Glaceon set and the big Dialga figure. I looked the balls before I opened them to see if I could catch a glimpse of what they were; I was able to determine that there were 2 Budew sets and 1 Buneary set, so I left those sealed for my collection. I opened 2 then and there and got the Mantyke set and the Eevee set. I filmed the opening of the remaining 4!:

One parcel from a fellow collector and one from Japan came in on Wednesday! My collections right now are all over the place, lol. But I (finally) got the corviknight plush, the new rookidee plush, the murkrow fit and cafe mix starly, as well as the galarian zigzagoon pin set and corviknight moncolle from the Pokémon Centre. Then from FreckledSamurai I got the 2012 leafeon I Love Eievui plush, two rockruff charms I was missing, a centre promo postcard, leafeon, glaceon and shaymin kids, and a leafeon candy figure. They were selling a lot of this stuff at really reasonable prices, so even though a lot of these aren't my main collections I couldn't resist grabbing them for the price. My very little leafeon collection has been bulked up a bit!

I got this little guy in the post on Saturday! When I saw the little parcel I had no idea what it was - I ordered this from eBay back in April, so I'd just disregarded it as lost at this point. Lo and behold, he turned up! I don't have any base or standing sticks for him, but that's fine. I like him just fine as he is (:

In my defense COVID-19 happened and getting things posted from Japan became a pain. :(

This is a picture of stuff on June 6 that had come in pieces for a couple of weeks leading up to it!

Fellow collector Perritbear was kind enough to middleman a loose WCT rockruff for me from US mercari. In the parcel they included a bunch of fun food wrappers that featured rockruff from the Alola era. Also picked up a couple other rockruff figures I needed, and I now officially have all rockruff plush and figures!

Three of the best (in my opinion) chatot plush: of course, the pokedoll, a banpresto keychain and a 5" banpresto plush. The latter of which was an entire can of worms unto itself to achieve. I spotted it in a huge $200+ lot on JP mercari and since I'd been looking for this guy for a while... I just went for it. That's definitely the most I've spent in one go lol. Luckily a lot of other collectors needed other stuff in the lot, so it was worth it! As life so happens though, about a week after, the chatot plush showed up for a really decent price on ebay... That's just how it goes, I guess!

Other than that, there are a couple cheap eevees I found on Y!J and JP mercari. Eevee is a pokemon I love but could never even think about collecting to completion. That being said, in its multitude of plush are some that I personally really love and have kept an eye out for at a good price. Here are three of them: the modern pokedoll, the laying I Love Eievui and a canvas eevee.

A smaller parcel of gets from July the 11th. One of each regular chatot kid plus one clear, a couple of chatot charms, and a corviknight kid. Nice!
