I buy too much stuff Gets! + question about differences in Umbreon Pokedolls of different dates.
I know I just posted a few weeks ago, but I just got in a bunch of new umbreon stuff, so here's my signature late night/wee hours of the morning post LOL! Also, sorry about the bad cell phone pictures, I lost my camera battery, and my collection room has terrible lighting. Larger pictures under the cut!
figure Gets. The umbreon attack kid came from ebay. The sitting and standing kids came from creampuffoholic, and the Friends figure came from Lightning Kitty on Storenvy, I know they're a member here, but I forgot their LJ username, sorry!
These are my first Kids figures, and I really like them. I notice that the attack kid is made of a thinner flimsier plastic then the others though. Are all the newer ones this way? The friends figure matches the tomy in size and style perfectly, so it's cool to stand them side by side.
Flat and tcg gets. All the tcg cards are from ebay. I hope they're legit, because I don't know much about card shopping. They all look really cool though! The large sticker came with the attack kid, and the two square stickers came from a sticker book off walmart.com. I'm a bit disappointed with them, because they're tiny, but I do like the unique pose of the first one.
This little guy came from ebay. So cute! I've been wanting to get one for a while, but never got around to looking until a little while ago. Banpresto really makes great plush! I just wish they didn't use that flex tape for the rings all the time.
All my Umbreon figures so far together! My collection's grown so much!
Finally, a question. I just got a Mint with tag Umbreon pokedoll from ebay. It looks different from my older one. I don't believe it's a bootleg because of how well it's made, but I put up some comparison photos. My main concern is the shape of the head ring. Are there differences between different release Pokedolls? I've seen some pictures of legit dolls with slightly oval head rings, but this one seems a little too off. The older one on the right was claimed by the seller to be a 2007 or earlier US Pokémon center release I think, but it has neither the tush tag nor the hang tag so I don't know. It is slightly thicker and rounder, it's ears are spread out more, and the head ring is completely round.
The newer one on the left is claimed to be a 2010 Nintendo World doll. The tag looks and feels right and has a nintendo world sticker on the back, but I've seen pictures of 2010s with the new tag. I forgot to get a picture of the back. It's head ring is oval, it is slightly less round and has a harder time standing up. The fabric is soft velboa like it should be and there seems to be no problem with the sewing. The ears point straight back though. Here are pictures:
Thanks for looking!
