First off, re-ment are small miniatures that come in blind boxes (except the furniture) made by a Japanese company that are for the most part the perfect size for pullips. I had done well to resist the re-ment temptation but appears the forces had aligned against me when Shana of pullipstyle included a free re-ment in with August’s pullip preorders because of the delays. Then I started looking it up online and I fell head over heels in love with a strawberry television that came with in one of the sets. I could not find anyone selling the full set and I was not about to buy blind boxes online so I ran a search in my local area on the US rement site and there just happened to be a store in Olde Mystic Village that sold re-ment :D.

I have to go back to that store soon, as they had a nice selection of re-ment and a few other interesting items I will get to in a moment. I ended up buying the brown cabinet and two blind boxes of the Strawberry set. I lucked out and got my lust item the strawberry tv and the picnic basket set from the blind boxes.
This is one of my Papin’s bedroom

I wanted Eureka (Papin the 3rd) to be a bit more sweet than my other two Papins so I made her a room with lots of pink and strawberries. She is the reason I went on the hunt, as soon as seen that tv it just clicked that it would be absolutely perfect for her room.
Here is the small dining room I made after I got home…

Little Strawberry Daifuku (Hina Ichigo dal 2.0) is quite at home with the new re-ment cabinet and all of the lovely re-ment goodies on her table.

The store Hammon’s House also had a few blythes and after seeing them in person I have to admit Roaring Red is kind of tempting, they really got my hopes up when I seen handmade earrings with pictures of blythes on them but sadly they did not have any with pullips.

And yes I have six bookcases where basically all the shelves are designed to look like different rooms for the pullips including three living rooms, four bedrooms, a patio (with jacuzzi), a kitchen, a pirate room, a sushi bar, a genie room and a bathroom and a small dining room that share a shelf. I have about 100 of them spread out over the shelves with about 60 or so in the actual rooms while the others are displayed on the tops of the bookcases. the other 19 are either in the living room as part of my Rozen Maiden display or in the hall as part of my literary characters/ I am out of room in the computer nook display.

In other pullip news, I have three pullips on their way to me. I am still waiting on Suiseiseki who I actually ordered a while ago but the other two I bought over the weekend. First I responded to a post about a bait Chicca, after seeing pictures and talking to the seller I realized that the only reason she was considered bait was because she was bald. So I bought a bald Chicca for $30 plus shipping, I already bought her a fur wig that matches her eye color perfectly and even after I am still at a total cost of under $50. It turns out I knew the seller from around the various pullip forums, she stood out because she was always really nice.

I also managed to acquire a semi-grail of mine. She is not rare or hard to come by, but I really wanted her specifically and no other would do. When I first started collecting pullips one collector Yuffie had always stood out to me her girls were always so unique. She decided to stop collecting and put up all her girls for sale, I adopted her Chill (now known as Helena), Another Alice and one of her Papins (now my Clementine who is incidentally my favorite pullip). Yuffie actually had Papin twins up for sale and I had always regretted not buying the both of them. Another collector ended up buying her so fast forward ten months to now when the new owner put her up for feelers. I contacted her immediately and suffice it to say Clementine will be reunited with her twin finally. So now I will have Qua-Pap (ie. Papin quadruplets), oddly enough this one has turned out to be the most expensive of the four but it is all good as she is coming preobitsued and rewigged.

I swear this will be the last pullip related post until I get Jouet ^_-
