Is it December yet???

Exciting Releases for December...  Totally Cannot wait...  Starting Off with the Photo Release of Series 27 - Due in Mid December.  They are all looking good, so we are pretty much in trouble once again with this collection!!!
 
And these two tales on the color of the Basic -
don't think they are SECRET editions but surely a nice extension!
==============================
Now the following entries are already out in Japan but will not make an appearance in Taiwan till early December - No Matter As Long As They Come, Right?
2013's XMas Santa!
 
Disney's Exclusive 2013 Christmas Party Collection!  
This time around, I really would not mind getting them all!!  
Alas, they are not being offered in Taiwan so far...

Cheeky Monkey

 


After Church today, I decided to take a walk for a bit and look around... This, for those of you who know me well enough is never a good thing...  Just way too many temptations out here, and I never need a lot to get tempted..
Such is the case when I came across these Paul Frank Vinyls...  Each one of them  just too cool looking...  And of course, together they look even cooler...  Thankfully, I was able to restrain myself a bit - broke down for just one...  Took me almost half an hour to decide which one goes home with me..  This Devilishly Cool one won...  Guess it is kinda fitting as he is Wicked enough to get me to break down...  And it is a sure bet that more will follow in the near future...

Devil Julius

The Collection Up Close!

These 6 inch tall Julius figures are Limited to 500 pieces
per design, worldwide.    Released in 2012, they are collaborative
efforts between Paul Frank and Super Rad Toy.

McDonalds X Smurfs 2

I know, I know... This post is long overdue...  
Somehow I overlooked posting them - so here goes..
Handy all set for some work fun!

Coinciding with the release if Smurfs 2:The  Movie in Taiwan, McDonalds issued these Premiums... I Honestly did not know anything about their release as I hardly go to McDonalds, unless of course, they are running a Happy Meal Premium Program to my liking..   Just lucked in this time, as I was with Juju and she wanted to have some Ice Cream...  And the rest, as they say, is history...  
First Week's Set

Through the Magic Door!

McDonalds' current Happy Meal Premium Toy program is a collection of Doraemon goodies... all too cute, of course...  But having way too many Doraemon vinyls on hand, I opted to skip it all...  All but one, that is!  I could not Pass Up this Pink Door box offered...
 It doubles as a music box but for me, the Bonus is that it is an almost Perfect size
for my Doraemon Bearbrick!!!

Getting Into The Holiday Spirits with BBs!!!

Yep, the Holidays are upon us once more...  With Halloween gone, Thanksgiving fast approaching, you know, Christmas will be here in no time at all...
It is kinda' hard with all the calamities that has been happening around the world - more especially, the recent Hyian Typhoon that cause so much death and destruction in the Philippines....  So we try to help and donate what we can  - however much...  and keep everyone in our Thoughts and Prayers....
 
In the meantime, life still must go on, and we go about our daily lives - work and such - and now and again, stop to find and/or create something beautiful to lift up the spirits....   So am trying to get into the spirits of XMas....   starting with setting up the Bearbrick XMas display...  that should do the trick!!!!   
Out comes the Disney and Christmas Bearbricks in my collection - not a whole lot but growing fast!!!  At the moment I have about 30 Total - but am awaiting this year's XMas Set, plus some of my picks from this year's Disney World XMas Collection...  

Stay Tuned, this is a Work In Progress!!!
NOTE: 3 Monster High Dollies are getting into the scene - just because they have not been out yet and upon Juju's request....   they are from the Scarily Ever After Series.
