Undertaker figure review!!

Guys. it's here. What we've all been waiting for. THE UNDERTAKER FIGURE HAS ARRIVED!!! I remember when the news first hit tumblr, and everyone was freaking out about the fact that an actual official Undertaker figure would be released. That was a good 7+ months ago, and now....it is here.

The figure came wrapped in a layer of bubble wrap, with little Undertaker strap hanging on for dear life

Because I ordered the figure directly from Kotobukiya's shop (using a shopping service), I got this little Undertaker strap as an extra! Each of the "chess piece" Kuroshitsuji figures have their own mini strap of the figure

Also, as an additional extra, they sent me a Halloween UT and Grell gift bag! Ciel and Sebastian are on the other side but we don't care about them. 

The box Undertaker comes in is pretty fancy, with small details and reflective embelishments 

On the back of the box were more fancy designs, plus UT on a checker board! It's odd how Grell, Sebastian, and Ciel all have chess pieces their figures were modeled after, but Undertaker doesn't. I wonder if this is somehow symbolic

The plastic holding Undertaker in the box even had a little hole for his face to poke out of. Hey UT, how's it goin' in there?

The figure came in three pieces: Undertaker, his scythe, and the platform.

The figure came with a little instruction sheet for putting him together 

Just thought I might mention that in order to have him hold his scythe, you gotta RIP HIS HAND OFF

 Look at this glorious heehee. This is a VERY intricate figure, and the shading and details are amazing *0* Let's just take a moment to appreciate all of his details

(his little face omg) 

Now, I thought I might mention that Undertaker fiogure does NOT have visible eyebrows, at least none that are gray. The does have two small skin-colored lines around the eyebrow area, but they are very small. Therefore, we can conclude that UT is an old-ass man who's eyebrows have whithered away due to age.

Look at that UT

beautiful. 

 For now, Undertaker figure is going to be hanging out with the magical girls on my figure shelf until I can truly put together a UT shrine~

So yes, after months and months and LOTS OF MONEY, my Undertaker is safe and sound in my room. This is by far the fanciest and most detailed anime figure I own, and I cherish it dearly ;w; 

WHERE TO GET IT: 

*disclaimer- I'm going to tell you right now that this is not, nor wil it ever be a cheap figure. Expect to pay $125 at the average.*

 

I bought my UT figure directly from Kotobukiya using a shopping service, but honestly that was probably the most expensive way to get it. The only reason I would suggest buying it this way is if you really want the extra strap.

Right now, the best and CHEAPEST place to buy this figure would be from Tokyo Otaku Mode. The figure automatically comes with free shipping, and if you sign up for their site here, you get $10 off Undertaker. So, with free shipping plus $10 off, you would be paying a total of $109 for the figure, which is the best anywhere so far.

AmiAmi is also selling the figure, but with shipping it will probably come out to around $130.

Pixie Store review!

Hey everybody! Today I'm going to share with you some Amuse items I bought from Pixie!

Pixie is a storenvy store that sells Amuse brand plushies, toys, and kawaii goods, and for VERY reasonable prices! plus, with every order they will send you a freebie, depending on the amount that you spent! ( ﾟ▽ﾟ)

Here is what I ordered (images from Pixie):

Tuchineko Sofubi mascots (black, yellow, gray)

Pika Pika Coroham figure

Happy Tails Happy Cham plush (gray)

Happy Tails More Happy plush (dark blue)

Sweets Neko Cafe figures (B and E)

(The cuteness factor is high in this store)

My order arrived in about twelve days after it was shipped, came in a small box ( ´ ▽ ` )

 When I pulled out my items, I was happily surprised to find out that there was certainly more in there than just what I ordered! Quite a bit moreΣ(･口･)

 oh my goodness, it's all so cute. Everything came wrapped together in plastic, and in perfect condition! And...do my eyes deceive me, or do I see multiple extras with my order *0* 

This is 100% right! I received not one, but TWO plushies as extras! 

 The first extra I received was this pastel Pixie sticker, which also came with a business card. I thought both were very pretty and sweet(●♡∀♡)

 The next extra I receved was a licensed, standard-sized Alpacasso plushy!

(side)

 (back)

Now, on their website they said that they send out an Alpacasso Heidan plushy with every order, but honestly I wasn't sure if that was true. I mean, a standard sized Alpacasso is something that one would pay $15-20 for, and would probably only receive with a large order. But with Pixie, they sent me this plushy just because I placed an order!  I think that is AMAZING(>ω<)

Also look how cute the little cape is omg

 The next extra I got was this Happy Tails backpack plushy!

No seriously, it's actually a miniature backpack! Little straps and all

 Inside was a little peice of foam so it would keep it's shape, and the tail was the zipper! 

Pixie sends out these little pouches for every order you place that comes to $50, minus shipping. They also sell these little guys in their store for $13, so getting this for free is a major deal! 

Now, on to what I bought~ 

Tuchineko figures ($3 USD each)

The first items I bought were these super-cute Tuchineko figures! These little guys were only $3, and made of soft plastic. I love how each of them have a different face >w>

Also, they squeak!

(I didn't realize they had squeakers inside of them until I squeezed one and nearly had a heart attack) I think the fact that they squeak makes them even more adorable （♥￫ｏ￩♥）

Blue Coroham figure ($5 USD)

The next item I received was this blue Coroham ligh-up figure! When I bought this, I thought it was only glow in the dark because of the picture, but in reality it's EVEN BETTER

On the bottom of the figure is a white area, and when you press it, it light's up!

 Screw disco balls, having a room filled with these at your party is way more cool(ᗒᗊᗕ)

Sweets Neko Cafe figures ($4.50 USD)

 The next items I received were these Sweets Neko Cafe donuts!

(THEY'RE TOO ADORABLE AHHH)

When I bought these, I wasn't totally sure what they were exaclty. The picture was a drawing, not an image of the figures themselves. I had a feeling they were going to be figures, but I didn't know if they were keychains, straps, rubber charms, etc

These donuts are too cute for this world, and have a kawaii decoden style to them! They are also made by Amuse, and I haven't seen them being sold anywhere else. Plus, they were only $4.50! That's insanely cheap!

(the choco donut is cream filled with little pearls( ´ ∀ ` )

Happy Tails plush gray ($16.90 USD)

The next item I received was this gray Happy Tails plush! This plush (along with the blue one) were the two items I was most excited for. I loved this one because of the little sunflower ribbon it had ;w;

On the tag it showed the other Happy Tails characters~

Happy Tails plushies are hard to find, especially for a decent price Dx So when I found that Pixie was selling them for only $16.90, I was ecstatic (´-ω-`) I cried tears of joy

Happy Tails dark blue plush ($16.90 USD)

The next item I received was the second Happy Tails plush in dark blue! This Happy Tails was listed as "happy Tails More Happy." I guess that means this one is happier than the gray one (ﾟﾍﾟ)

(I like how each of the happy tails items I received had different tag designs)
I actually liked the color of this Happy Tails most of all, probably because all the others are very pastel and pale compared to it. Also, the little red ribbon/green clover kind of give it a Christmas-y vibe in my opinion~

☆~Ratings~☆

quality:♥♥♥♥♥
 Everything was in perfect condition, and turned out to be way cooler than I had expected, plus I got TWO full sized plushies as extras! All of the items were authentic Amuse brand, and I had never even known Sweets Neko Cafe existed before I found them on Pixie! A lot of the stuff they sell is difficult to find anywhere, especially the non-alpaca plushies.

shipping:♥♥♥♥♥
Shipping for my order was $10.30, and everything arrived safely and within two weeks~

cost:♥♥♥♥♥
The cost of what I ordered was $56.80, plush $10.30 shipping, which came to a total of $67.10. for all these Amuse goodies, I have no complaint about paying that! Their prices for each item were extremely reasonable, and just about the best I have yet to see~

overall:♥♥♥♥♥
Overall, I wuld give Pixie store a full five stars. I can't describe how happy I am with what I ordered, and the fact that I got two adorable extra plushies! I don't know of any other store who would offer such a good deal. Their prices were very reasonable and they sell just about every Amuse item available, Including ones I didn't know existed! 
I even had a few questions after my order was placed, and I received quick and friendly replies(＾▽＾) I would highly recommend Pixie to anyone looking for hard to find Amuse merchandise, or just cute and kawaii toys in general. I know for a fact I will be placing more orders from them in the future!
