Was donating some stuff in a charity shop, and saw this keyring for 50p:
Thought it looked cute, so had to get it for my hangables rails. So now I have a happy cup o’ coffee looking down on me :).
The keyring is by Kidrobot, and is part of the Yummy Breakfast range.
And now for the dregs! There was bound to be some broken/incomplete stuff, and here it is.
First up, not broken, but kinda cheapy – some Japanese warrior figures.
They’re not terrible, but they’re more kid’s toys than something to really display imo. They’ve been sent to the Drawer of Purgatory. Feel kinda sorry for the dude in the middle with his wilting sword.
The next item I initially thought was a decent item, but on closer inspection… not so much.
Here is Neptune from One Piece:
Unfortunately, on closer inspection, the pain on his large mane of hair is badly chipped:
Was considering listing this on eBay, but don’t really want to with the condition it is in.
Now for half-a-Akagi from Kan Colle:
No head in the box, so this is a bit pointless. I’ll keep the bits, just in case I can combo it with something at a later date.
Lastly, the body of Hiiragi Tsukasa from Lucky Star and a
Sound Capsule Gaia Memory of Ryuki. Nope, Hiiragi’s head doesn’t fit on Akagi’s body. I tried 😛
The sound box is made to look like a USB drive, but it very much isn’t. You can press the button at the bottom (raised bit near the “plug” end), and it will cycle through a bunch of sounds. Doing some research, this set came with some kind of candies/sweets, and there were others done as blind boxes.
Has annoy-o-tron potential, so it’ll get lost in a drawer somewhere. Or thrown at someone who professes a love for Kamen Rider.
And that concludes the Box o’ Random! There are a couple of items I haven’t covered, as I’ve listed them on eBay. The items are a couple of pin badges and a phone strap, from series I’ve not heard of.
And here we have the things I like, but have no idea what they are! Tried asking on MFC and Reddit, but no-one, as of writing, have identified what they are
First up, a pile of cute:
Copyright on this figure is listed as “GOE”.
Nex is a fox-inna-bowl, with some food on his head:
No copyright or anything on this one, so I assume it’s a random mass-produced item. He’s now dangling off one of my keyring & charm bars.
A badge of a girl:
No copyright on this one either, but being a pin-badge, it could quite well be something fan-made. Not sure I can go wearing this one in public though…
Bought this from a seller on Facebook, after a minor mishap with the postage.
Took a little longer to arrive than anticipated, but super-glad to have him:
Getting him spurred me onto sorting out the second hanging rail, seeing as the first one is full!
Here’s a pic of the new rail:
Not much on it for now, and I’ll possibly shorten Sonic’s string. Scissors may also move, so I have them temporarily mounted to the right for now.
Got the first batch of stuff from the Urban Mine auctions I won recently, plus one item from the store.
First up is EVA-06. He’s supposed to have a halo above his head, but the support part wasn’t included (yep, Urban Mine). Debating if I’m going to bother finding something to replace it,as I’m not that fussed over having the halo
He’s also got some minor scratches on his leg.
Closeup of his face:
Not an amazing figure, but my weighted calculations estimate I paid about £4 for him, inc shipping.
Next up, Mr Assemble. Wanted him to mix with some of my Devil’s Blood pieces, ended up needing one of the joints to replace one I pilfed from Devil’s Blood to repair a figma that lept out of the detolf :/. He didn’t have a stand with him, and some of the joints weren’t included, but mostly ones I wouldn’t have been bothered with. Here he is before I started pulling bits off him:
And after I mucked about with him:
Closeup showing his “cybernetic” arm:
Next was a wildcard item. 100JPY starting bid – they’re some phone charms with a strap. Thought they’d probably be charms and they looked kinda cute. Reading up on them, they’re supposed to come with a comic, but I can’t read Japanese so… yeah, not missing out on that:
And here they are, in various shelves in the study:
Sunny one to go with the skeleton:
And Joker nabbed himself one:
Last, but not least, an item from the Mandarake store. This one was sealed. Been liking the looks of the Puzzle & Dragons figures, so go this little one, as it wouldn’t take up much space:
