I am pretty sure this little lady is my all time favorite. She's a tiny brass fox! I want to make her my new pocket pet and carry her with me everywhere but I'm afraid of misplacing her! oh the hard decision. Honestly I've never been able to find a brass fox let alone one so little and cute! I can't get over her.

Really Tak thank you and your sweet daughter for such an amazing box you're attention to detail was amazing. thank you and your sweet daughter for a great box

Yay so glad you love everything Mika!  You're very welcome!  I wanted to make sure to pack ias much items as I could without breaking the budget!  (Since your box to me for the sticker swap a few years back was amazing!)  And you're right about the Aristocats book; it's Japanese.

I got my swap box in the mail today from mkia9! :heart: It was like a miracle -- my aunt died this morning so it's been a really tough day -- just the right timing for a pick-me-up like this amazing swap box!

Here's what I saw when I opened the box:

How did you know I wanted wonder sand? My brother got some for Easter and I was kinda jealous. :D

Here's a very cool coloring book and some toys for my cat:

Here's some really, really great stuff! I got a real Alpacasso! So far I have only been able to get fakies (which are still cute and they're much more affordable at conventions) -- I'm so excited to have a real one! And he is soooooo cute! He's wearing pajamas so he's going to sit on my bedside table. Then there are a whole bunch of Tsum Tsums! I now have a real collection! I only owned three of them before, but now I have some of the ones that I absolutely most wanted! Especially sleeping Eeyore and Scar! :heart:

Last, but absolutely BEST are my bestest friends! I didn't even list these as one of my main collections -- I think I mentioned them in answer to a group question, but the one set of Funko Pops that I HAVE to own are the Friends Pops! And now, thanks to mkia9 and a real life friend, I have half of them! I almost squealed aloud when I opened these:

If you can't tell, I am THRILLED with my swap box! Thank you so much partner!  :inlove: :tackleglomp:

Oh, and bonus picture of Theodora enjoying one of her swap gifts!

@ Mkia9: Your new Pocahontas doll is beautiful and those handmade kittens are too cute for words. The card is also very lovely.

@ Ringwraith10: Your new Tsum Tsums are really cute. And Funko Pops are always awesome. :D

Mkia9: The title of the Aristocats book amused me, it's OshareCats (or more truthfully katsu but it's katakana so it's definitely supposed to be cats) oshare means fashionable so Fashionable Cats! I love the Aristocats too and those are some really cute goods!

Ringwraith10: I'm so sorry to hear about your aunt's passing. It's wonderful your box arrived just in time to give your spirits a boost! I love your Alpacasso and your sleeping Eeyore Tsum Tsum. My husband looked for an Eeyore Tsum Tsum forever, wherever did you find it Mkia9?

Eeyore came from disney store online :)


I'm so glad you like everything, ringwraith10! It was a lot of fun shopping for you. I just couldn't put the tsum tsums down haha. And I didn't know they had friends Funko pops until you mentioned them! They're so cute!! I love how Ross has Marcelle with him. The alpacasso was so cute I had to order myself one too :blush:

Ringwraith, thoughts go out you and your family.

Your box looks lovely!  Mkia did a great job getting it together; look at all those adorable Tsum Tsums!

EDIT:

My box came from the awesome and thoughtful zombienixon!  I was absolutely thrilled with my box, and I love that you made it a PURPLE theme!

Everything wrapped with an home-made card of Fizzy!

And everything unwrapped!  Here's was I got:

-Japanese chocolate candy
-Pusheen stickers (so fat and cute!)
-Tokidoki Unicorno blind bag  - Latte (don't have this one yet so super stoked!)
-and last, but certainly not least: Star Darlings Sage! (I was secretly hoping to get a Star Darlings doll in this swap as I don't own any yet so this made my day!  And it's my favorite one because she's a purple star princess!) :frolic:

I'm glad to hear it. I was a bit unsure since you didn't have any, but I got it since I thought it was really, really cute and was your favorite color. After seeing it in person, I kind of want one myself.

You should!  These dolls are extremely detailed for a fashion store line; I can't stop looking at her since she's resting on my desk next to my computer, lol.  I plan to get all of them eventually.

Post by: NovelNerd on April 23, 2016, 10:12:26 PM
UrocyonFox was my partner, and I couldn’t have asked for a better box! I absolutely adored the things I received. I got a neat Cheshire cat Funko, and I’ve never even been a fan of the figures but he is so cute! I also got a Bait Clydesdale Barbie looking horse that is black. She will be a wonderful project for my clyde models and will love being on the shelf with them once I fix her up. I got a tin with Alice and the caterpillar that is neat and trippy, some steam punk Alice playing cards (two of my fav things rolled into one!), Alice labels, Alice stamp stickers (which is cool because I actually have Alice stamps in a frame on the wall), little unicorn coloring pages that look like stained glass and a neat Cheshire cat journal/notebook.

Two things from the box that made the biggest impression with me was first the art cards. There were cute unicorns but also my army pony Nightlight and second some of my rats! Unfortunately in the last week I had my heart rat Ty and my sweet baby Zoe pass away and Indy hasn’t been doing well either. My rats are all pretty old though and while opening the box I was holding Zoe while she died and it did make me cry a little but also smile because it reminded me of how perky and lively my babies have been. I loved them and will be putting them in the shadowboxes I do for my animals when they pass away.

Lastly, A beautiful hand painted box with a neat/creepy Cheshire cat filled with several pocket watches and two rings that are cameos. These pieces are beautiful and I’m sure I’ll be wearing them around everywhere. I wanted to thank you for such a thoughtful and wonderful box. I absolutely adored it.

I loved my box thank you so much! :hug:

Also everyone has such amazing boxes coming in hope my partner's measures up. It has less items but they ate through the budget fast. Lol, my girlfriend always says I get so nervous about my swap boxes being good enough. You would think after doing this for years I would be used to it by now. :P

I got my box in today.  Going from the teaser, and the very car-shaped items in it, I had guessed Kitkumi was my partner and it looks like I was right!

I was kind of expecting to get only cars, but it looks like she was able to find a few planes as well! I also got this cute G4 coloring book.

I also got a custom Hot Wheels painted in this nice glossy pink with Pinkie Pie's cutie mark on the roof. How did you know she was my favorite?  :P

I am so glad the box got there alright, I'm just sorry I couldn't find more new in box stuff for your box. But you weren't hard to shop for at all; I actually collected die cast planes and cars when I was a little kid thanks to my dad so it was a fun box to put together. And I did a little bit of post diving to find your favorite pony :D I enjoyed making the custom, I just wish I had more time. Your 'B Team' package was supposed to be the rest of the mane six lol, but there was a bit of a learning curve on car customization.

Post by: ladybastilla on May 02, 2016, 06:07:05 PM
Tak, I'm so glad that you guys liked everything. :) I went through so many ideas of what I would get for your main items, but in the end the two EAH dolls won out. When you mentioned interest in the adult coloring books and that you didn't have good pens, I decided those would be your main extras. I picked that book because you mentioned liking mandalas and because the images are on one side of the page--if you stick something behind when coloring / letting an image dry the pens should not bleed.

I love anything glittery, and the four crayons that came with the book didn't seem enough so I couldn't resist getting the glitter one. i've sent them to kids before and they always seem to be a hit. :D The coloring book for your daughter was chosen because you guys like the palace pets.

After how much i liked the jellybeans you sent me it seemed only fitting to send you some back. I also figured you'd be done the peanut butter cup minis from Easter by now. The Areo I thought would be a fun treat for you to try since it's not common in the states.

I had a blast putting your box together. I'm also relieved your dolls arrived safe and sound--they would not fit in the swap box while still their boxes and the main box they came in from Amazon was 3x bigger then they were, so I couldn't use it. I wanted to get you Cerise since I know she's your favorite, and I decided on that version of Kitty because I thought her design and outfit were stunning.

I got my box Monday but needed a day off to fully write a brag worthy of it. My partner was the sweet ringwraith10 who really put together a thoughtful box that covered a lot of my interests. Btw, I was kinda sleepy so I forgot to take a picture of the pretty Little Mermaid wrapping paper she used. >_< Onto to the contents:

I had been wanting a Chococat plush forever but never found one in the size I wanted but this little guy was perfect and super cuddly. The handmade Chococat card was too cute and I love the little stationary set! (went right on my desk  :biggrin:)

The elephant bracelet and necklace are something I know I'll be wearing out this summer! (love how the necklace is my favorite color  ;))

It was surprising to open and find Lady Lovely Locks goods as I didn't think it would be possible but ringwraith10 made sure of that. The storybook has such pretty illustrations and the story is a cute read after a long day at work. Still can't believe I own one of the dragons now, Sweetcurl at that. I'm thrilled to add her to my Lady Lovely Locks collection! Also, nomming on the Butterfinger eggs so yummy.
Thank you so much again for a great box ringwraith10, it was a wonderful treat to open at the end of a long day! :happy:

tikibirds tracked down goods from so many of my varied collections I had to take copious pictures to show you every little thing. Don't worry, I put it all under a cut:

Spoiler
Let's start with the extras, the immense amount of sweets and snacks:

I wish I remembered more of my kanji since they usually have pretty similar meanings between Japanese and Chinese. I recognize a few like strawberry and milk but some of these flavors are like the mystery Dum-Dum lollipops. My husband and I enjoyed a few last night but I haven't been brave enough to try the little bubbles of what looks like beans and chocolate? The cute little spoons are tempting me to do so soon however...

Let's get started on the collections! Here we have a multitude of Powerpuff Girls sticker flakes as well as a collection of adorable Totoro stickers and some Totoro decotape. Lastly a pile of other sticker flakes for my sticker collection!

Sorry for the poor quality picture from my phone. This is a bevy of super cute Sanrio goods! Twin Stars are represented by a set of sticker flakes, washi tape, a sticker sheet, a large lovely sticker, and a writing utensils kit which includes a fountain pen with ink refills (I love fountain pens!) and what may be glue? Jewelpet which was difficult to track down even in Japan is represented by an adorable bag used to wrap many of these goods and washi tape. Hummingmint which is pretty much impossible to find anywhere is represented by a sticker sheet and that adorable bubble of stickers in the upper right.

In case my excitement about fountain pens didn't make this clear, I love pens, erasers and assorted stationery goods! I didn't know you could make so many things into pens! The fan is a pen, the scooter is a pen, the ice cream cone is a pen (with a charm!),  the pea pod and the strawberries are pens, and then there is the Angry Birds pen, the giraffe pen (with wooden charm!), the pen with the donut topper and the one with the smiling apple and that's not even all of them! The lipstick and the lollipops are erasers and then there are the two collections of hyper cute mini erasers too! (I think the Green Bean's Day set is an eraser too with refills in different colors.)

Now we get to the shoujo treasures! I combined Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura goods in this photo. The Cardcaptor sticker flakes are all CLAMP illustrations which I think are just done in the sweetest style! Then we have Sailor Moon transformation compact earrings (perfect!), two of the new Sailor Moon FriXion pens (soooo pretty!), a number of trading trading card stickers, a Sailor Moon paper doll (another of my collections), and a charm of my favorite, Sailor Mercury, perched on her transformation wand!

The ne plus ultra of shoujo! It's the embodiment of all things girly and eighties - Creamy Mami! A set of Italian paper dolls! And one of the nearly impossible to procure clear folders!

Thanks so very super-duper ultra much tikibirds! I am overwhelmed by your swap box and the bevy of goodies you have nigh on drowned me in. Consider me well and truly spoiled!

Sumire, I'm freaking out over those Sailor Moon goodies. :heart: What a neat box! Tikibirds did a fantastic job!

Wow! Just wow. That's an awesome swap. My daughter is so jealous of the power puff girls.

Sumire was my partner, and she sent by far the most amazing box. Everything I opened really just knocked me for a loop, and the wrapping was gorgeous (I kept all the ribbons and it was really cool that she tried to wrap using my favorite colors!) She was also so thoughtful and instead of sending a lot of edible goodies she sent me Digimon cards instead (though the apple-strawberry fruit chew was delicious and didn't survive long, and I've got a pot of tea chilling in the fridge. It smells amazing)

Everything that she got me fell directly in to all of my main collections, and she ended up getting multiple grail items of mine: the cute Chocobo mini towel I have been eyeing forever, the new Luna dog tag, and the SEA SHOCKER DRAGON! :drunk: Also, the Digimon stuff, aside from the cards, were things I didn't even know existed and I LOVE them. I'm a huge sucker for pins, stickers, and stationary, and she got things featuring my favorite characters  :frolic: But enough of my talking, BRING ON THE PICTURES!

Nice haul. You've got some nice goodies in there. Congratulations. :)

I am so happy to hear that Kitkumi! I was most worried about the Chocobo mini towel. You have an amazing collection and I spent a lot of time looking at your picture of it and thinking, "Nope, she already has that." I was really hoping I hadn't missed the mini towel tucked away somewhere.  :P

I was so excited to find some goods for the Digimon characters you liked too! Since I was on a Japanese site, I had to do some research to find Gatomon was Tailmon. :work:

I loved my box from tikibirds but I am just as thrilled that you loved yours. That's the great thing about swaps - you get the happiness of receiving and giving! :biggrin:

Yay, nemubones! I am so so glad that you liked your swap box! I thought it was pretty lucky to find that dragon at just the right time -- I never see those on Ebay! :) Sorry it took me a few days to post a reply -- I've been pretty busy.

And cyberunicorn -- OMG, I am so jealous of your Puppy in my Pockets! You got so much good stuff! Love everyone's swap boxes so far! :heart:

It's my turn to brag and wow do I have a lot to brag about. :cheer: My partner was Nemubones and she sent me an absolutely amazing box.

A handwritten letter on super cute Sailor Moon stationary set the tone for the goodies that I would find inside.

Treats! I love Kitkat, so those were automatically a win. The Lindor Truffles have been a lot of fun to have here since they're one of the few types of chocolate my bf can have. The treat in the red bag is really interesting, too. I let my bf and my brother try it with me. My bf and I enjoyed it, my brother wasn't as fond. Still, it's always exciting to try something I've never had before.

Sailor Moon goodies. :heart: The pouch is actually inside my main wallet as an alternate way to carry change. The transformation brooch actually has a mirror on the back, so that went into my purse as well. Last we have magnets of Sailor Moon and all of the Sailor Scouts. BF and I are going to try and find something that can go on my wall and have magnets attached to it when we go out today.

An adorable Tsum Tsum of Judy Hopps from Zootopia. I love her cute little hat!

My second Shopkins Shoppies doll, Jessicake. I absolutely love the shade of blue her hair is and all the cake themed details. I'm pretty sure Bubbleisha is going to be thrilled to have a friend. :lol:

This Beauty and the Beast mug set is beyond adorable. The artwork is really neat because the characters actually aren't flat to the surface of the mug. They've come in handy since there are two people here using my mugs right now, not just me.

I didn't even know this set existed! :dropjaw: Beauty and the Beast is my favorite Disney movie, so of course I'm really excited to add these two to my growing collection of Itty Bitties. Also: the Beast's fur is such an amazingly soft texture. Reminds me of what drew me to these little guys in the first place. (My first Itty Bitty was Chewbacca.)

Last but definitely not least I got a Sailor Jupiter wand. I always have a pen on my desk--sometimes I use them to write, most of the time though they are just held while I am thinking. I have a strong suspicion my normal black pens are going back to the pencil case once I get this out of the packaging. :lol:

Nemubones, thank you for the absolutely wonderful box. I love all the things that you chose for me, and I'm amazed at some of the things you found for my collections that i hadn't even seen before. :)

Yay, so glad you liked everything ladybastilla. I figured that Itty Bitty set would fit right at home with you BatB collection. ^.^ Same goes with the mugs, I stumbled on them. So dying to get the Rapunzel and Ariel mug set since someone posted a pic of just having Flynn Rider and Eric looking to kiss. :P
