Kuroshitsuji 10th anniversary Bottle straps!!

Hey everyone! Today I'm going to share with you the long-awaited Kuroshitsuji 10th Anniversary bottle straps! 
The "concept art" for these straps were released probably at least a year ago, as one of Yana Toboso's drawings. Months later, sketches of the straps were realeased, including  secret strap .

I was sort of hoping the straps would stay in that sketchy style, but I love the colored ones as well~

The straps came in a little plastic box sealed in bubble wrap, with a paper ribbon on the front

 The ribbon reads: "We certify that this article has been entirely manufactured by Funtom Co. Please keep this card with care." (even though Funtom is a made up company but OH WELL)

 The box is clear with cute golden print all over it 

 beautiful.

The straps were a bit smaller than I had imagined, but they managed to cram a lot of detail into them! 

 (closeups)

Each strap came with a paper background, which looked like a tiny stage with curtains and all ;w; I sort of felt bad having to take them off

  

Here are the straps without the backgrounds:

 

Now, I just want to point out that the mystery strap, was in fact, a second Sebastian-only more derpy devilish. I have to say, this Sebastian strap takes the cake when it comes to facial expressions. I mean look at him, hes probably sommoning all of hell within that tiny bottle. Thank god he's contained >3>

Overall, I was very impressed with how much detail was put into the straps and their packaging. I think these may be the fanciest straps Kuroshitsuji has ;w; Derpy demon Sebastian was priceless, as well as upside-down Undertaker stuffed in that tiny jar xD

WHERE TO GET:

Because these are limited edition (or special in some way, because I think only special items come with that ribbon card), I'm not totally sure they are still in stock or for sale, but the site I bought them from was Square Enix store. Unless you live in Japan, I think you will need a Japanese shopping service to order them (I just ordered mine with my Undertaker figure to save shipping lol) The straps were 4,900JPY, or $39.89 USD.

So if you are able to purchase these straps still, I would highly suggest doing it! Also if you plan on buying them, please buy the entire set, because that's the only way you will be able to receive derpy Sebby.  And you don't want to miss your opportunity to own derpy Sebby. 

Thank you for reading~!

  

Kawaii Land squishies! Review

Hey everyone! Today I'm going to share with you a small but adorable squishy package I bought from Kawaii-Land! 

Kawaii-Land is an online shop that sells mainly squishies, as well as other kawaii things such as cell phone accessories, stationery, and Popin' Cookin cadies ( ˊᵕˋ )♡

Here are the item I ordered (images fromKawaii-land):

 Funassyi PuniPuni Squeeze toy strap

Chiba Pinyattsu Soft Squishy Mascot

Hello Kitty Lovely Sweets Shortcake squishy

I thought these three were the most adorable toys in Kawaii-Land>w>

Because this order was actually one of my birthday presents, I am not sure of the exact day it arrived. Although, I do know that it arrived within about one week!

Inside the package were the three items I ordered plus my order confirmation note. Everything looks so cute(●♡∀♡)!! Each squishy came individually wrapped and had their original tags~

Funassyi squeeze toy ($10.50 USD)

The first item I received was this Funassyi squeeze toy! This is also my first squeeze toy ever -SENTIMENTAL SQUEEZE TOY MOMENT-

 The squeeze toy was very soft and rubber-y, and almost sticky! It was apple-shaped (even though Funassyi is a pear) and had a little 2-way strap/pluggy.

Time to squeeze the Funassyi apple~!

 (Oh Jesus, what have I just witnessed)

Since this is my first squeeze toy, I am not sure if they are all like this, but when I squeezed it, Funassyi-apple seemed to give birth to a small bean of itself in a watery liquid sack. Not scary at all.  

Overall, the squeeze toy seemed to be good quality, very soft and squeezable, and the little Funassyi bean was actually kind of cute. Also, I got this little guy on a major discount (five dollars off!) 

I think I'll attach it to my phone and ask innocent souls to give it a squeeze and see their reactions (≧∇≦ )

Pinyattsu squishy ($10.00 USD)

 The next, and less firghtening squishy I received was this adorable peanut-cat names Pinyattsu! 

(front)

(back)

I think this one might be the most adorable of the three, and it has a cute little " :3 " face! This cat was very soft and squishy, and had a slight shine to it. Come to think of it, Pinyattsu might just be my new favorite squishy *0* !

Hello Kitty Shortcake squishy ($8.50 USD)

 

(front)

The last item I received was this Hello Kitty vanilla shortcake squishy! This was by far the most realistic of the two squishies, it looks like it's really covered in icing!

(back)

(side/middle)

 My favorite thing about this squishy is that it has two little cat-shaped strawberries on either side >u> Even the strawberries look realistic! I'm not usually a big Hello Kitty fan when it comes to squishies, but this is probably going to be another one of my favorites(＾▽＾) This squishy was also very soft and slow-rising. Plus, this one was on sale as well, so instead of paying $10.50 I only paid $8.50!

✰~Ratings~✰

quality:♥♥♥♥♥

Both the squishies and the squeeze toy were high quality and came with their original packaging and tags! The squishies had no defects and were very squishy, plus the Hello Kitty cake was very realistic and slow-rising( ´ ▽ ` )

Shipping:♥♥♥♥♥

The total cost for shipping was $3, which I think was INSANELY cheap! All my items were packed carefully, and arrived within one week~

cost:♥♥♥♥♥
The cost of the combined items was $29 plus $3 shipping, which came to a total of $32. Two of the three items I purchased were on sale, so in total I saved $6.50! Honestly if the items weren't on sale I'm not sure if I would have bought them, considering that the sale prices for these items were equal to similar store's regular prices

Overall:♥♥♥♥♥
Overall, I would give Kawaii-Land and their squishies five stars! The items I received were packaged nicely with no defects, had their original tags, and were shipped for only $3. Plus, Kawaii-land has some squishies and kawaii goods that I haven't seen anywhere esle, like the Funassyi squeeze toy and Pinyattsu squishy, which were both on sale! I would recommend Kawaii-Land for those of you who enjoy cheap shipping and want a large variety of kawaii items in one place. I was extremely happy with the squishies I received and will be sure to shop at Kawaii-Land again!

Tokyo Otaku Mode Haul/Review !

(sign up for Otaku Mode now and get 10$ in points to spend!)

Hey everyone! Today I want to share with you this GIANT and extremely fluffy order I bought from Tokyo Otaku Mode! 

Tokyo Otaku Mode (or TOM) is an otaku's dream. TOM sells everything from kawaii plushies and keychains, to fashion and magazines, to figures and phone accessories! It's truly an amazing place (╯✧∇✧)╯ TOM also offers lots and lots of coupons, discounts, and points, which is good for people like me who order truckloads of things xD

Here is what I ordered (images from TOM):

Feneky Fox large plush (Kikko)

Punitto Kanshoku! Cat paw mascots(black, white, and calico)

Neko Atsume rubber 3-way strap

Mameshiba San Kyoudai Homestay standard plush (Sasuke)

 I just realized this was kind of a cat and dog themed haul (^-人-^)(❍ᴥ❍ʋ) All of these lovely items arrived in a gigantic box. And when I say gigantic, I mean gigantic.

Look at that

The box was nearly as long as my bed is wide （○□○） This big box arrived within five days of being shipped from Japan, which is very fast! Kudos on safe and speedy shipping~

 Here is everything that I pulled out of the box: my order PLUS

 A FREE FOLDER

WITH MY ORDER SLIP INSIDE *0*  Even the order slip was packed safely! The folder was also very pretty and beautifully drawn(´∀｀)♡

 The things that I ordered where tightly packed in a layer of plastic wrap, with the cat strap taped to the front. Peeling the tape off of the strap was kind of tricky, and it left some sticky residue on the packaging ; 3 ; 

 Punitto Kanshoku paws ($3.99 USD each)

 The first items I pulled out were the three cat paw plushies I ordered! Each one was individually wrapped~

 (front)

 (back)

I ordered the paws in black, white, and calico.  These paws were super soft and had sort of a velvety texture, plus, the little toe beans/paw pads were squishy! 

The tag made me laugh xD the cat just looks so..so serious

Although the paws were very soft and cute, they didn't arrive in purrrfect condidtion (yes you can kill me now). They were wrapped so tightly that the keychains got smashed into the soft paw pads, leaving very noticable and deep dents:

I was hoping that maybe they would sort of poof back up, but they show no signs of doing so. 

The black paw had no dents, but there was a gap between part of the toe bean and the plush paw, with glue showing. (sorry if it's hard to see here) It isn't as noticable as the other two, but I worry that the little toe squishy might fall off if I'm not careful.

Neko Atsume Strap ($4.69 USD)

 The next goodie I pulled out was this cute little Neko Atsume strap! 

The strap features a cute white kitty with a pink ball of yarn, as well as a 3-way strap (phone plug, phone strap, and key clip) Also I love it's littel butt xD This strap was very cute (｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡

Mameshiba Sasuke plush ($7.99 USD)

HIS LITTLE FACE. I think this doggy just stole my heart ; w ; I love his little scarf and pink cheeks!

Okay, I admit, this doll can't actually stand up on it's own so I used tape to help him out. I'm not sure how they got him to stand up in the TOM images. Maybe they used tape also xD I really loved this plushy, and it's fur was very soft, like all Amuse plushies(´∀`) Also, I got this plush on a 20% off sale, which was great!

 Feneky the Fennec Kikko plush ($17.59 USD)

And last but not least, here is the VERY BIG Feneky Fox plush that I ordered! It was actually so large that I had trouble taking decent images 

(front)

(back)

This fox's name was Kikko, and was also on a 20% off sale! Because this is an Amuse plushy also, the fur was reeaaally soft and fun to pet (-w-) I also loved the Pink ribbon around it's neck! It's ears got a little bit bent in the packing, but I'm sure they'll straighten out soon.

☆~Ratings~☆

 Quality: ♥♥♥♥

 The items were all adorable, but there were a few defects, mainly due to packing.Even so, I was pleased with everything!

Shipping: ♥♥♥♥♥

It arrived very quickly, especially coming from Japan. The shipping cost came to $18, which was a little expensive, but it was worth it for the fast shipping.

Cost:♥♥♥♥♥

I would give the overall cost of the order five stars! The total of all six items plus shipping came to $55.24. I would consider the price of each individual item very affordable, and easily cheaper than most online stores. In addition, I had $5 in TOM points to spend, so I got $5 off of my entire order! 

Overall:♥♥♥♥♥

Overall, I was very happy with everything1 The items I received had a few defects, but the cost was reasonable and I received a great discount. I really loved all of the items I received, and would order from TOM again! (actually, I have another order on it's way!) I would maybe consider ordering another cat paw, even with the risk of defects because I found them very cute and cheap. I secretly want the whole collection xD I would recommend TOM to anyone who doesn't have access to both popular and harder to fins Japanese items, and who prefer fast shipping. PLUS they have a huge selection of kawaii and cat-related items, which I would recommend to cat lovers like me (ﾉ≧∀≦)ﾉ
