A very exciting Pokemon Center promotion for me dropped last month! My parcel arrived, let's peek!!

Admittedly, it's a very big parcel...

It's the "My Little Bestie" campaign! I did not get absolutely everything with Rockruff on it - I couldn't afford to get everything - but I did succeed in getting everything I wanted, so I'm very happy about that. I was camping on the website right as the items went live, but before I could check out, the full box of 5 magnet clips sold out, so I just grabbed 5 individual ones, checked out, and hoped for the best.

Firstly is this Rockruff! This one was quite a bit more expensive than a plush usually is from the Pokemon Centre, and I wasn't really sure why until it arrived - it's HUGE! The fur is so wonderful and soft, and the shaping is excellent. I'm so happy I get to own this guy.

Secondly is another Rockruff plush that I needed for my grand catch-up, not a part of the My Little Bestie collection, but since it's another plush I figured I'd put it up top. This is the San-Ei All Star Collection Rockruff, which released September 2024. This one also has a really lovely pattern, I like the muzzle on this one a lot.

These are some rubber magnetic clips, to stick on a fridge or other surface and hang a little note to. The Pokemon Centre usually sells things like this in single blind boxes, and then in a full set with one of each kind guaranteed. I waited for this promo to go live on the website and rushed to get one of everything I wanted before they sold out, but the full set of these sold out almost instantly! I'm not sure if it was a mistake or not, but I just added five singles to my cart instead, and ended up with one of each in a full set, thankfully.

Here's my little Rockruff! He's very sweet, a great rendition of this artwork.

Here are a lot of the other bonus bits. As I mentioned, I got one of everything I wanted from this promo, plus some bonus stickers in case I ever want to use any. The rest of the stuff, for example the frisbee and bowl, didn't really feel pertinent enough to my Rockruff collection to worry about.

I grabbed some neat cards while I was putting this parcel together, too! Just some nice ones I was waiting to dip in price, and they did - these were all very cheap.

Some cute all together shots, with the sweater I forgot to mention!

Until next time!

Just a couple of bits from the Japanese Pokemon Center today, my friend wanted to order a Chandelure Halloween lamp so I grabbed a few things I wanted.

The "United Wings" deck sleeves, to commemorate a deck played in the TCG championship. Naturally I just like them because it has a lot of my bird babies on them!

Two attempts to get the new Starly Re-Ment from blind boxes... and a stark reminder as to why I never try to get the ones I want from blind boxes, as I ended up with two Sentrets lol.

The calendar/postcard from this month. I don't collect these seriously, but I would like to one day :)

The Rockruff kutakutatatta in small! This is a much nicer size than the medium, in my opinion, though I tend to like things smaller and more huggable. I'm glad to have them both, anyway.

Until next time!

I got a couple of little Rockruffs and birds that have been on my list for a while!

We'll do the most interesting piece first, for once.

Chatot movie pen!! The paper insert is really grimy, so please forgive that in the photos. I've been searching for this pen for a while, and I'm really happy to own it, not in small part because the chatot charm is ADORABLE.

Kids figures. Rockruff sleeping has been my icon on another website for ages, so I was so over the moon when I saw it was getting a sleeping kids.

The little garden wall re-ment figure. The set looks really cute together, but this one admittedly looks a bit odd on its own. The Rockruff mould itself is adorable, though!

There was a Tomy Get collection released at the end of last year with both a Wattrel and a Rockruff, too. I've been really spoilt with the releases lately, I thought Rockruff merch would not be as frequent after S&M ended, and while it has slowed down there's still a pretty regular few bits which makes me very happy!!

And lastly, finally, the Corviknight re-ment terrarium. I bought two from this gacha set and got Raboot and Cramorant before telling myself "no more randoms, just buy the set" and... I didn't. Until now! Better late than never. :) It's nice to get a Corviknight piece this year, anyway, seeing as he's not getting as much love now we're into gen 9.

That's all for now!

I have a little bit of a mix-and-match bundle to post about today! I have some pieces that arrived from Japan very recently, some from a couple of months ago, and some pieces that I ordered to a friend's house in Germany in October 2022 that they then weren't able to send to me until now!!

One of the last nine items on my "rares" hitlist, this keychain came in a big bundle with a bunch of others, and thankfully still as new with tag intact.

Entei is one of my side collections, and I don't know a lot about the pieces available really. I would assume this is some kind of Get collection candy figure, given that this was one of the ones that came from Germany, but it could be anything!

These rubber stamps were also from Germany. I've never seen them before!

A little bundle of retsudan stamps.

Of course, my reason for picking the bundle up - my boy Chatot was in the lot! This is another thing that I've seen show up very rarely, so I'm very happy to have it, and in brand new condition.

This is one of the aforementioned Get collection candy figures. I own one already, but they're so hard to come by that I just grabbed it as it was 1 euro. It looks very similar to the Tomy Chatot figure, you'd be forgiven for mistaking the two.

Some cheap Zukan figures. Staravia is missing its wings so I'm not really sure what I'm going to do with it yet!

Leaflets of a Get collection and a tomy hanging figures collection. These will be scanned at some point.

This one is also from Germany, but from a separate sller from last month. I own this figure loose, so it's lovely to have it in packaging.

Some new releases! Pokedex charms of Squawkabilly, Wattrel and Kilowattrel.

The medium Rockruff kutakutatatta! He's so big for being a medium size. This is one of my favourite plush series, the Eevee being one of my favourite plushes overall, so I was really excited that Rockruff got one! I can't wait to get hold of the small version, but he was sold out.

The I Choose You! Tomy Wattrel plush. It looks VERY derpy from the front, but I was very happy Wattrel got a plush at all - sometimes the starting birds don't get so lucky.

A few recent cards I hadn't gotten yet. The art rare is INCREDIBLY cute. I'm planning to keep one in my folder and then one in a display on my wall.

All the gets from my Japan parcel!
