My parcel from @lydskisses arrived! I ordered some badges and merch from ToT anniversary and I got the poster and extra badges from her new year clearance sale. Everything is soo pretty and I'm super happy! I 100% recommend shopping with her. Thank you so much for being patience with me 💖💖💖
Voltage once again claimed my heart by announcing the new merch for their upcoming character cafe. Weak as i am for chibis they just had to release animal hoodie acrylics of some of our best boys.
Kasumi tries to wriggle himself into my heart more and more by now also dressing up as a red panda!
It almost feels like Kurosawa stole the penguin hoodie of him :D
Of course Tsugaru just had to have something bunny themed in the picture. Nomura has to watch out not to end up in Tsugaru's bunny merch collection at this point.
Kaga and Ishigami have their signature food and just had to have matching poses. Coincidence? xD
I wonder what the animals say about our characters. They are all so very adorable! It's difficult to decide!
Anyways, if you would like to buy some chibi merch too, @lydskisses organises a group order for the event. If you are curious just contact her ;)
Putting up some videos of the new HSR August merch over at my ig story (lydskisses @ ig). If you miss it, you can watch them on my highlight “☆ HSR AUG”
I thought I would let everyone know about a shopping mistake that happened to me recently. I was relying on a message to purchase Trey from Twisted Wonderland, but we got lost in translation so now I got Jade in his lab uniform. To be fair I was telling my mom over the phone and didn’t double check if it was the correct one. I won’t return Jade though; it is an early Christmas gift from her. Anyway, I just thought I would let people know where I buy my plushies from.
I also hope this helps @thehollowwriter
Twisted Wonderland Plushies
I bought all of them off of Etsy and I’ve never had any problems. There’s this one seller I really liked to get them from, but they stopped recently. Most of them price starting from $15 or $25 dollars. When you buy them, I suggest you compare the plushies to the ones on the official site to make sure they’re the real deal. All of the ones I have bought are in fact the real ones and I’m very happy with all of my purchases. Just be careful to see if your favorite character is sold out!
Shipping will depend on where you live, but for me it takes at least a week and a half. When cleaning, please make sure to hang dry them.
Ikemen Series
I typically purchase them from Animate International. I’ve never experienced anything bad. Everything is priced at an okay price for me. Shipping typically ranges, but I’ve never had anything delayed or late. The best thing about buying from Animate International is that I will always know it’s the official item.
Animate International link: IKEMEN SERIES (animate.shop)
However! The items aren’t the new ones that are being advertised. So, they won’t be the newest edition. For those, I typically have to search the internet for the best seller.
Here’s one I recommend: lydskisses (tumblr.com)
*I have never bought from them because I haven’t really liked any of the new merch out and I’m saving for Twisted Wonderland. DO notice that.
Tsukiuta and Tsukipro series
Similar to the Ikemen series I purchase everything from Animate International!

Link to Tsukipro: TSUKIPRO (animate.shop)
I haven’t been able to find another seller, but if I do, I’ll add them as well!
Just some tips:
Make sure to check if the merch is the official one by comparing photos to the official one on the site.
Stay away from anything that charges way off the typical price. Ex. if a plushie cost $50 for one
This is just a personal one for me, but I never buy anything from Hot Topic unless I really enjoy the product. This is because you can find it for a better price somewhere else!
If you buy from Alibaba or anything in relation to them, please be careful. Most of the time these sellers will scam you and steal information. Also, Alibaba is facing business problems so be careful.
Always find out where you are buying your item from! I’ve learned that if a seller doesn’t say where it’s from then they’re not as trustworthy. It’s also great to know so that you know how long it’ll take to get your product!
Kiro's We Couture wedding veil box has arrived!!! MANY thanks to @lydskisses for ordering and shipping it out to me 😘💕 The box itself is lovely and the wallscroll is just beautiful 😍
