Friday... Am In Love!

AM ONE HAPPY & LUCKY GUY...

International Love Heart Set - Finally!!!

 

Yes... after years of looking high and low....  begging peeps for help....  and watching Auction sites...  this AWESOME SET is FINALLY MINE!!!   and Good things must really come to those who wait as the previous owner in JAPAN kept this really nice and mint - box as well...  and with the help of Hot Dog Toyz, I got it at a fairly decent price..... 

 

What used to be Number one on my Be@rbrick Wish List - it is no more.... 

and with this, am SATISFIED - for now!!!!

6 Basics to go...

Yesterday, I decided to stop by Hot Dog Toyz just to look around...  Since I was already there and remembered, I asked to check on the older Basics they happen to have..  And Lucky I did - was able to pick up Series 7 - now am down to 6 more to complete this Series...  

Still need from Series 1, 5, 8, 14, 15, 16

Of course it should not be that hard...  I could have completed it a while back - bur for added fun and torture, I decided to only collect the Letter R from each series...  Now should be a bit easier as there are two Rs from each series - but alas, it is proving to be torturous.....

Oh well, back to the HUNT!!!

UniQlo X Bearbricks

Am sure many of you fellow Bearbrick lovers are already aware of the Bearbrick tees currently being sold by UniQlo....  First Shanghai...  then Hong Kong just started selling them the last few days... and next month, Malaysia is said to start carrying them...  -- To date: still no word if Taiwan UniQlo will be carrying them... :( -- If you have not, please click here to read more and see photos: UNIQLO X BEARBRICKS.

 

Of course it makes sense to have accompanying Bearbricks to go with the offer....   first off I was only aware of two kinds that was going to be offered by Hong Kong as Premiums, with Tee Shirts purchased...  Right away it caused excitement and a headache for Bearbrick Lovers all over...  myself included...  How to get?  Who to reach out to to help acquire - since it seems to be Hong Kong's Exclusive offering....  

Well, the excitement and headache just multiplied as recent posting of the Premium Program Flyer surfaced - not only two but 9, yes 9 Bearbricks will be offered for redemption... and the way it works is that: for every 3 tees purchased - you are entitled to redeem one of the BBs... waaaaaah....

  

 

I think for most the problem does not lie as to whether or not to purchase enough to get all 9 BBs, but as to how to get them if one lives outside Hong Kong......  HELP!!!

Comme Ca' Ism

For this Uber Cool Japan Boutique a 20th Anniversary Commemorative Be@rbrick has been issued....

This Be@rbrick made it's debut on the 26th of April - just a few days ago... And it is supposedly available in all the Comme Ca' Ism boutiques throughout Japan...

Though we do have a few of these boutiques here in Taipei, these Be@rbricks are not offered... Boo Hoo...

So my fellow Be@rbrick lovers and friends in Japan - Please Help!!!
