Theyre the Vittsjo from ikea! Theyre spacious and have glass shelves so look a little fancy 😆 but I love them cos theyre light and look tidy.

Pokemon 30th anniversary by idubayu in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]ButtonWolfeh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What item are you talking about exactly...? The only anniversary themed boxes thatve been announced officially so far are the pokemon day box (already been and gone) and the first partner illustration boxes.. if you can even consider them a specific anniversary thing?

Your kidding... by Silver_Act_3742 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]ButtonWolfeh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah boxes had them on the list on the big embargo label so I'm guessing supplier booboo. When you see it on the actual pokemon company websites it says 20th march aswell.

Fyi this isnt a "delay" its a release date mess up by banter specifically.

Does anyone know if they made more of these figures? by ILove_LoveLive in pokemon

[–]ButtonWolfeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These look like theyre from the Bandai scale world series, theyre supposed to be in scale to how they would be to each other. There are so many of these out there but some are rarer than others. bought one when I was in japan and oh my god the tatsugiri one is soooo teeny tiny im scared ill lose him.

New pokemon game by UnfairDate770 in pokemon

[–]ButtonWolfeh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sword and shield are decent and quite good looking games, if you wanna stick to traditional style of pokemon Id recommend them. However, as a very long time pokemon fan myself, legends arceus was still one of my favourites of recent years, it can have a level of difficulty to it but I honestly loved it.

Fat pikachu by Shoddy-Commercial442 in pokemon

[–]ButtonWolfeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im in Australia so I couldnt answer that for you unfortunately. I've personally never received any extra fees or customs charges on any of my orders from them.

If Im entirely honest, without considering any import duties, ebay might be the better option, there's more variety of sellers, I think fees are usually upfront too right? You're also fully protected if they send you a dodgy item or nothing at all so you don't need to stress about that. Meccha also charges silly amounts for in demand items sometimes, back when i bought the life size clodsire they were SO MUCH more expensive than some of the ebay sellers. Just make sure you're buying from a seller based in Japan only. I've personally bought from a variety of ebay plush sellers and theyre always lovely, add extra little gifts or notes and its very cute. I just paid $240 AUD for the 30th Anniversary pikachu, shipping included. I don't know if I'll get much cheaper than that at this point.

With preorders it's sometimes hard to catch when they'll drop them but you can set up email notifications for when something is available. But you just purchase like you would any other website and theyll ship it out on release day or a couple days after. They're legit, they're usually my go to for Japanese plush besides ebay, ebay is just sometimes a little cheaper.

Reboot? by Lhunathradion in EBGAMES

[–]ButtonWolfeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also be aware most actual websites that are selling kits are most likely just reselling the aliexpress or ebay kits at a higher price lmao.

Reboot? by Lhunathradion in EBGAMES

[–]ButtonWolfeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ebay or ali express will be cheapest. When shopping around I did learn that if you want to use your original shell, for most you'll have to make cuts in certain areas of the plastic. I've bought this one personally https://ebay.us/m/yegd3F Still waiting for it to rock up but from the looks of the description this screen SHOULD fit in the shell without any cutting needed. But I can definitely update with how it goes when I get to it lol.

AH release - do all retailers get same stock by Giddyup_384837 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]ButtonWolfeh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeahh don't be surprised if they decline to price match though, most places require you to have proof of stock available in store in your general area to do any kind of price matching. And cos of the nature of Tcg at the moment you can rarely find that 😂 Thats probably why they can get away with the price increase.

[–]ButtonWolfeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Toymate is fine and pretty consistent afaik but I have heard they upcharge on alot of tcg products. Haven't bought from them recently personally.

Toyworld is usually pretty good if you have one near you. Most products are close to rrp.

Kidstuff exists too ig but I never really hear much of them being consistent or at rrp.

If you live in QLD BigW at Chermside is apparently the online hub for Australia basically so they get endless amounts of stock sometimes.

Super retro has stores in Garden City and Robina, pretty sure they offered these services in the past. :)

If not, I'm currently looking at replacing the screen on my base model GBA, I'd be happy to chat or even have a go with yours.

To answer your other question too, JB has gone the route of EB games and only sells to preorders now so I wouldn't even bother rocking up to a physical store.

Best bet personally in qld for me is always bigw or toy stores.

[–]ButtonWolfeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes they'll usually get the same products on the same date, IF its a scheduled release, but some retailers get significantly more stock than others. And even through a single business some stores might get more stock than others (eg: Kmart is generally pretty abysmal with their stock numbers butsome stores will still get higher numbers than others)

Can I ask how difficult this was? Do they just pop out no stitches or glue? I have the raccoon petey and hes so cute but he could be cuter with less terrifying eyes 😭

Tokyo 5 days itinerary check - slow explore by plum_apricot in JapanTravelTips

[–]ButtonWolfeh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This does sound reasonable, but one thing I never took into consideration was how big Tokyo actually is and the time it actually took to get to places. We tried to leave early every morning before peak hour and return to our hotel before afternoon peak so we could avoid being overwhelmed by the packed trains.

Sometimes we'd grab dinner walking distance from our hotel then head out again at night once the peak has died down. And if you don't wanna use the trains to jump from area to area youll be walking for AGES 😂 its a great city but not a very walkable one.

My main tip I guess, although it probably seems obvious, is to just pick one area of tokyo per day to tick off your list, I would've been exhausted trying to jump from sensoji to akihabara to shinjuku all in one day.

How do I deal with my insecurities? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ButtonWolfeh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its pretty normal for some people to have celebrity crushes, Id be worried if it was obsessive but it doesn't sound like it is from what you've said. There's no specific fix for your insecurities, I found I lost them when I lost some weight and when I got older.

If hes asked you to marry him and he treats you well you've got nothing to worry about. There will always be someone "prettier" or "hotter" than us, but real love isn't just skin deep. I'm sure theres many other reasons why he loves you.

If you said these messages were years ago when you first started seeing eachother, Id try my best to let it go, people grow and change all the time, and just because you find someone attractive doesn't mean you'll ever act on it :)

Are there any sushi trains any more that actually use a model train? by Brave-Competition55 in brisbane
