Infrequent Posting Alert Until August

Monday, July 14th, 2008

It’s that time of year again - my summertime Infrequent Posting Alert. As you may have already noticed, I am going to be slower than usual with posting and responding to e-mails and comments for the month of July, so please don’t think I am ignoring you if my responses take forever until next month.

Onto some catching up…

  • The Giant Peach has the Mozzarella and Sandy plush dolls in stock now. They added the tokidoki Miao vinyl toy as well. Lynn also let me know that there are a bunch of the tokidoki plush on eBay.
  • The tokidoki for Ride collaboration items are starting to pop up in stores - Jessica found them on IskiShop.
  • Jessica also sent me a bunch of photos (below) of toys that will be released at SDCC this month - tokidoki for Onitsuka tiger vinyl toys, a platinum Bulleto, platinum cactus friends, and platinum pups! Joslyn let me know about these items too, and Bridget contributed additional photos of the tokidoki tokyoplastic geisha that will also be released at SDCC.

I was very excited that my full set of Cactus Pups arrived in record time from Panik’s Toy Box, so I got to open them on Christmas too. :) The sausage with the little face on it is too cute.
