Here are some highlights of the update!
I have 4 different versions of the Dialga Pokedoll now! \o/ I find it interesting that you can tell the make and release of a Pokedoll from the tush tag. From my collection site, these are (from left to right):
The original PokemonCenter.com version. I removed the hang tag from mine, but the tush tag says Pokemon USA, Inc.
2009 Nintendo World version. The tush tag says The Pokemon Company, International.
The Japanese version, which I don't think has changed. The tush tag says something in Japanese about the Pokemon Company.
The newest version, obtained from the vending kiosks in Seattle. The tush tag says The Pokemon Company, International, but also states the location of the office in Bellevue, WA.
I thought at first that the Seattle version was a different fabric, but it actually seems to be the same as the Japanese one and the Nintendo World one, and may be the same as my original one, but I can't really tell since it's so loved.
All four together with their DX brother. Oh super DX doll, where are you? T_T
I got the new Triumphant mini-binder from eBay! Now I have 2 Dialga mini-binders and one big one, all different designs. I really love the art on these.
A beautiful candy jar that is much bigger than I expected! I actually got two of these at once, but have never seen any others. I would trade the extra for some Dialga things I don't have ;)
What can I say, I love things where Dialga appears with diamonds! This lovely bag is from snowball21. ^_^
blazikenbabe kindly picked up the newer version of the European candy container figure for me! He has some pretty impressive derps, though. I wonder if they're all like that. ^_^;
With the addition of this figure, I now know of only 2 Dialga figures I'm after: the US remote control car, and the clear normal pose Chou Get. I would pay quite well for either of these!
Settei of Dialga's signature item, the Adamant Orb! I was probably more excited about this one than I should have been, but hey, it's probably the closest I will get to an official Adamant Orb item!
My bandage collection (lol?) jumped from 1 to 3! The middle one is an awesome find by snowball21, and the bottom one was sent to me by
blazikenbabe! I wonder how many more there are...
And a couple custom items!caffwin and I worked together quite a bit on this one, and I'm very pleased with how he came out! I especially love his legs and feet <3
I finally have a shiny Dialga kid! *shakes fist at Bandai* This one was painted for me by fernchu, thank you so much!
My poor neglected Jolteon page got an update of a rare item, the settei!
This was in the same lot as the Adamant Orb settei, so with those two together, how could I pass it up? I need to get to selling my leftover settei sometime soon, though...
Also, my dragon page has been updated with BW Pokemon!

Currently my Zekrom and Reshiram sections look like this:
But in a year or two I expect they'll look more like this:
I'm not trying to get all or even most items of these two, but I'll probably pick up cool items when I see them cheap or in lots.
I have a tiny Monozu collection started now!
The sculpture is by caffwin and the plush is by
vepsmin! I am anxiously awaiting some official merch for these guys, I might go for all plush, figures, and stamps of all 3 of them!
My next goals for the site are:
* Keep the Dialga things updated as they come in (as always)
* Fix that poor out of date Jolteon page
* Redo many of the images so that pages don't take so long to load
* Keep the dragon page up to date and get better pictures for the ones that're hard to see
I am also working on updating my shop! I hope to have it up and fully restocked within the next few weeks. ^_^;
My Deoxys and Kyogre shiny promo TCG did not get any bids, so I would sell either for $20 if anyone's interested! yaoi_queen, did you ever find that card for the trade? ;)
Thanks for looking!
