Arrival! Grin the Cheshire Cat BJD

As some of you may know, I have a great love of all things Alice in Wonderland and I am especially fond of the Cheshire Cat. I forget exactly how I discovered Grin the Cheshire Cat bjd by MushroomPeddler but I saw him and absolutely loved him,  unfortunately he was not available for sale at the time. I happened to be browsing on etsy for various bjd stuff around Valentine’s Day and…something unexpected managed to leap up out of the search results.
Grin
I pounced on the order button immediately, I went for the custom color option as I personally fail at all things art and requested the iconic pink/purple Cheshire Cat coloring. He arrived yesterday and words can not adequately describe how much I love and adore him. I think he may just be my new favorite bjd!

Arkham City Harley Quinn

I spent a good part of today reading comics that I had been accumulating in my pull box so I find myself in a bit of comics mood, so I decided to post about one of my newer comic figures that I photographed recently..
Arkham City Harley Quinn Figure
This Harley Quinn figure is based off of her appearance in the Arkham City  video game, it  is made by Mattel and is a part of the Batman Legacies line. There is actually a DC Direct figure of Arkham City Harley Quinn as well which I got for Christmas but have neglected to photograph.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica Petit Nendoroids

Despite my deciding to cut back considerably on buying new anime figures, I found myself powerless to resist preordering the Puella Magi Madoka Magica petit nendoroids when I saw them on HLJ. They arrived in the mail earlier this week and I wasted no time in opening them up to take pictures.
Madoka Magica Petit Nendoroids
Since I ordered a case I got the full set including the secret Madoka figure as well as a spare Sayaki Miki in school uniform figure.

DC x Bishoujo Poison Ivy

Sorry for my absence again, I’ve been ill and as a result I haven’t really been spending much if any time online lately ^^; Enough with the excuses before I disappeared, my DC Comics x Bishoujo Poison Ivy figure arrived in the mail from Entertainment Earth and I managed to squeeze in a photo shoot with her.
DC x Bishoujo Poison Ivy
Poison Ivy is one of my favorite DC characters, so I couldn’t resist preordering this figure and I have to say I am extremely pleased with her. In my personal opinion she is the best figure in the DC x Bishoujo line; her sculpt is amazing, the colors are amazingly vivid and the figure just really seems to suit Poison Ivy’s character.

Lati Yellow Fever

I announced the arrival of my first Lati Yellow Trixie Treat (a Halloween Pumpkin Lumi) way back in November, it seems more recently that I have contacted a fatal case of Lati Yellow fever as my LY family has expanded quite a bit in the past few months.
Lati Yellows
Here is my new extended Lati Yellow family (from left to right) Rose Red (Alice in Wonderland- Queen of Hearts Lea), Maybe Mauve (Story of a Fairy- Miel), Bebe Blue (Story of a Fairy- Lea) and of course my Trixie Treat (Halloween Pumpkin Lumi). All four decided to dress up in dresses by Picklelilypie for their group photos.
Lati Yellow Group
My eventual intention is to have a seven Lati Yellows one done up in each color of the rainbow (I’m choosing to do a pink instead of doing both indigo and violet). I hesitate to admit that I already have the fifth (a pirate Belle) of my seven member crew already on layaway.

Marvel x Bishoujo Mystique

I’m normally more of a DC fan than a Marvel fan but I used to read quite a bit of Marvel and well I still have a soft spot for some of my favorite characters like the lovely shapeshifter Mystique.
Marvel x Bishoujo Mystique
When Kotobukiya announced a Mystique figure in their Marvel x Bishoujo line I  immediately went on Entertainment Earth to preorder her (as well as Poison Ivy who has not arrived yet).  My Mystique figure arrived last week and I was able to get a chance to photograph her over the past weekend.

New Monster High dolls- Operetta and Nefera De Nile

It’s been a while since I have posted about my Monster High dolls here, since I just recently got Operetta after looking for her for ages I thought this might be the perfect opportunity for a post featuring them.
Operetta
Operetta is supposed to be the daughter of the Phantom of the Opera, which strikes me as a little implausible ahead and overlook that for now.

Late introduction- Custom Heather Mason of Silent Hill 3 BJD

Shortly after Christmas, I decided to shop for some clothes for my newly acquired Iplehouse Elemental Senior Guardian Claude somehow instead of finding Claude more clothing I somehow ended up spotting a listing for another  Iplehouse bjd. The listing was for a J.I.D Tantiana that was customized to look like Heather Mason of Silent Hill 3 by Leahlilly and she was so gorgeous I could not resist bidding on her. Since the seller and I lived only a few states apart she arrived here literally less than 48 hours after I won the auction.
Heather Mason
Unfortunately, I have not had much time recently for photography or blogging my precious few photo shoots. I took Heather out for some photos a few weeks ago and I am just now getting around to introducing her here.

Arrival- GSC Madoka figure

Puella Magi Madoka Magica is one of the few newer animes that I really enjoy, unfortunately for my wallet it also has extremely cute character designs that will translate into an endless array of figures and merchandise (including Pullips!).
Madoka
I admittedly kind of forgot about having preordered this Madoka figure until I saw the shipping notice for her from Playasia about a week ago,  I really don’t preorder much anymore so it was surprising that I had somehow forgotten this adorable figure especially since I was so excited about it when it was announced. Madoka came in the mail today, since it’s been a while since I have blogged a new anime figure I decided to feature her.

Animadness revisited!

Since I had some time off this weekend I decided to go visit Animadness.
@Animadness
Animadness is my semi-local anime shop they are located in Waltham, MA  they are roughly a two hour drive for me but they also happen to live within close driving distance of a friend of mine so I find excuses to visit often!
@Animadness
In addition to anime figures, they also happen to sell Pullips which is like a dream come true to me but a nightmare for my wallet.
