Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday

Merry Christmas and happy holiday to all.
My long overdue pictures of Ribonetta finally ready for sharing on Christmas Day.
She looks much nicer in box. Saw a deboxed Ribonetta in a store in Bangkok, she was in a bad shape as her hair is difficult to manage once out of the box.
Love her dress and her Hello Kitty Theme box. :)

Fedup with my local Toys R Us store!!

According to Blythe Official Website, we are to contact the local store directly on the purchase method for Stella Savanna Neo Blythe. Have been calling the store for a number of times to query on this and nobody can give me a direct answer.

So far, the responses that I get from them are:

- We do not know when the stock will reach us. [That is so not important, I do not care when the stock reachs your store, it can be tomorrow or next week, I am more concern how to purchase her.]

- We do not accept pre-order or reserve by phone [Yah, I got it, we need to go down to your store on the day to purchase directly. ]

- When ask whether the DAY is 26th Dec, the response was slience [Hi, you are not answering a question posed to you during the Miss Singapore contest. This information is already on the blythe doll official website, and you just need answer me with a yes or no.]

I am quite fedup with calling the store to query about Stella Savanna Neo Blythe and end up getting nothing.
I guess I better keep one of the Stella Savanna Neo Blythe that I pre-order from a buyer in Japan. Though she is more expensive than retail price in the store, it is better save myself from ALL frustration from trying to get information on how to purchase her locally.

Home sweet home

Came back from my short Bangkok trip... have fun shopping and sight seeing in Bangkoko.
The weather in Bangkok is really warm, never expecting it to be that warm when someone told me before I went that the weather over in Bangkok is cooling.

My Hello Kitty Neo Blythes are on their way to my house now. Will post pics of her later this evening. =)

I'm going away again

Hi guys, I'm going away again...
This time I am not going to Japan [I just came back from there on 1 Dec 09, need to start saving for the next Japan Trip.] instead somewhere nearer... Thailand - Bangkok.

Will not be able to update the blog or reply to any email until mid of next week.

Toys R Us Exclusive Neo Blythe Stella Savanna

Received a lot of emails asking about Toys R Us Exclusive Neo Blythe Stella Savanna. For the benefit of them, I managed to source for her from Japan. But of very limited quantity.

Neo Blythe Stella Savanna (Toys R Us Exclusive)
US$297.00. Shipping is $30.00

Anyone interested, please leave a comment with your email address. While stock lasts.

Please understand that I got her at a secondary market price, so her price is a bit more expensive than retail price and I am selling her close to my cost of purchasing her, hence I am not able to reduce her price further.

She will be released on 26 Dec 09.

Updates

Sorry guys,
I am very busy in preparation of my trip to Japan end of this month. Forgive me if I have not been replying your emails and providing updates to you. Let me take the chances to provide a summary of the some of the information required by some of you:
- For those who are hunting for the Toys R Us exclusive neo blythe "Stella Savannah", I have updates for you - our local Toys R Us is selling her (I emailed them and they confirmed it). However, they do not allow pre-order, so I guess we need to go there directly on the date of release to get her. I hope it does not fall during the period of my Bangkok trip.
- For those looking for help to buy things from Japan (ranging from agnes b, burberry blue/black label bags and wallets, fancl products, makeups.beauty products from famous Japanese brands, etc), you can submit your shopping list to me before 17 Nov. I would be gald to help out.
- For those interested in getting the Companion doll for the coming Dollystyle Convention 2009 in Tokyo, please email me for more information.
- For those asking about CWC Exclusive Ribonetta Wish, I am not able to get any stock of her. Sorry about that.
