Also, for those of you who have been looking for a store that will ship the tokidoki jewelry internationally, Sue from Canada just pointed out in another post’s comments that Trendy Stars will do so. I see that they just added the tokidoki for Hello Kitty necklace and just about all of the latest 2008 jewelry.
Remember the tokidoki Pirata necklace that I blogged about back in February? Well, tokidoki just let me know that the necklace will be officially released as an exclusive to shop.tokidoki.it customers only – hopefully later in the day today! It will retail for $45, be limited to 250 pieces, and there will be a new shop.tokidoki.it homepage design to celebrate its release.
*begins obsessively clicking to check for it*

Vicky from Chicki just received her shipment of new 2008 European tokidoki jewelry and took photos of it to share with us. The pendants are BIG! She took some photos of the necklaces on mannequins to give us a helpful sense of scale.
Vicky also let me know that she just got an e-mail confirming the release of the Skeletrino and Skeletrina vinyl toys. They will be in stores by mid to late June. The USA retail price will be $10.95 each, and the UK retail price will be about £6.95 each. Here is a photo of them that I ganked from Vinyl Pulse:

Jamie from JapanLA just sent me photos of the latest tokidoki watches – Razor, Pizza Mia, and Solar. She said that she is already sold out of the Razor watch (which is my favorite!), but can special order it for people.
Vicky from Chicki just sent me photos of the European line of tokidoki jewelry that was just released. The charms are made of silk screened perspex, and the chains are brass with glass pearl accents. This is the most expensive line of jewelry yet: the first necklace with all the charms (which is sOoOoOo cute!) will retail at about £65-70.
Edit: photos removed per request of tokidoki Europe.
Has anyone noticed this new tokidoki Lametta Bracelet yet? It is hardcore!! *WANT*
Trendy Stars just put all of the tokidoki Sterling silver charms on sale for 35% off. They added a bunch of the new 2008 tokidoki jewelery to their inventory too. Has anyone bought any of the new bracelets yet? I am really curious to see what they look like on a wrist (especially a small wrist).
Another sale: Carmela just let me know that tokidoki iSkins are on sale for 60% off.
And finally, one last tidbit: I just noticed that JapanLA got a facelift. The new site design is cute!
Sue from Canada just received her new tokidoki diamond necklace and commented with the scoop on it, which I am re-posting here – vote on if she should deface it by making the small diamonds into earrings or not! 
I vote no, I think it is really cute as-is.
“Hey all – I *finally* got my DIAMOND necklace! So – here’s some info that might be of interest:
1) the necklace very long – like kinda gangstah!
2) the diamonds on the side (the little ones) do not have happy faces! In reality they have the somewhat irritated look on their face (like on the t shirt – where the mouth is straight and the eyes are more angry looking).
Personally I prefer that the big one is happy and the small ones are irritated – it’s more interesting. I mean the center of attention and the *jealous* sidekicks perhaps? Also – all the charms are double sided so if they flip, the same thing is on both sides.
P.S.: I know you’ll gasp at this but I was half contemplating removing the small ones and making them into earrings! I do that regularly with stuff so I can see how it would look kind of neat! Like a matching set.
At the same time – defacing a tokidoki collectors item *gasp*…. I dunno.”
Last chance: today is the final day of the exclusive sale for Tokidoki Blog readers at Tobi that offers 10% off all full-priced tokidoki items when you use coupon code TDBLOG10 at checkout.
Also, off the topic, aoieisanni pointed out that there are four new bracelets up on the tokidoki.it store as well. Cuteness overload!
Panik’s Toy Box is having a Leap Day 2008 sale now through midnight EST, February 29, 2008. Enter coupon code leap08 before checkout to get 20% off any purchase (excluding gift certificates). They are also awarding double Panik Points on every purchase made through March 2nd, 2008.
Also, I think many of you have noticed this already, but just in case you haven’t – the tokidoki.it store has also added a bunch more new necklaces. They are all soOoOo cute! These are some of my new favorites:
Thank you to Leah for pointing out that tokidoki just posted pictures from the Pool Trade show to their blog – including sneak peeks at some new t-shirt designs (I see popcorn guy!!), hats, toys (including the Sandy and Mozzarella plush dolls once again, and if you bump your screen resolution up to 800×600 and look closely you’ll also see a black Skeletrino and a purple Skeletrina), sneaker-boots, jewelry, and BAGS. If you look closely at the pictures, you can see at least three different prints (Carnival and Concerto Punk, I believe, plus the new solid black) and a few different bag styles. One photo also shows the new Adios keychain design.
Many thanks to Saki for sending me a link to an interview with Simone at JoshSpear.com that includes all sorts of exciting info, including confirmation that there definitely will be a new line of bags branded only as tokidoki – “but made by same people behind LeSportsac; same team, same factories.”
Me: w00t!
Wallet: *FEAR*
Other exciting news, all lifted from the interview: the next cactus friends toy released will be the cactus punk character! That will be a must have for me. Also coming soon are “tokidoki denim in Europe; the two cats of adios and ciao ciao called Skeletrino and Skeletrina; a new line of New Era hats; mimobots; plushes; new lines of watches, jewelry, and other cool stuff.”
ANNNDD – there are plans to open a tokidoki store in the USA in 2009. Simone is “looking for a location.”
CAN’T WAIT!!!
