Not kidding. This one arrived today.
To be fair, this little cutie is the doll I snagged from Nekosandy. He was a limited edition, and I KNOW that she pretty much stalked him for close to a year before being able to purchase him. In other words, good luck trying to find a replacement at a later date, his non-limited version rarely turns up on the second-hand marketplace as it is. He's now essentially my little hostage till she can pay back what I spent on him.
While he's here, I'm going to do some routine maintenance on him. Most likely also give him a new face-up. The current one is one of my older ones, and I'd much rather him have a 'fresher' appearance. ^.~
Anyway, on to the paltry box-opening.
If you're not in a big hurry to get your doll, using parcel post as a shipping option is really economical. Downside is that it takes about a month or so to reach the destination. This box was something along the lines of $17 to ship from Iowa to Puerto Rico. It's a good sized box.
With PLENTY of padding and cushiouning in there with this little cutie.
Not kidding about the padding. I think Nekosandy shoved a whole roll of bubble-wrap in here. XD
Yohji: ....I don't wanna get up.
Yohji: Geeze lady. Fine. I'll get up! >.<
Yohji: Why are you making me stand up? You know I've got a broken hip.
Me: Yeah, you can still stand. That hip will also be taken care of... it's not that hard to deal with.
Oh yeah, I should probably actually say WHAT he is. XD
Yohji is an Angelregion Tanning Kai. Short little thing, absolutely adorable. ^___^
