itty bitty cuties

impyCass asked me if I wanted/needed anything from Disney as she wanted to get some stuff for K but didn't have enough to reach free shipping. Had I been more awake, I would have asked her if there was something she saw for K and wanted me to buy first, and then looked around after I figured out what kind of amount I should be eying.
I'd been awake for maybe half an hour at this point so clearly I did not use my brain. To be fair, the weather changing has my face hurting to the point that actual thought is not easy even now so...
I fell headfirst into the nuiMOs section and drowned from the cute. Someone, somewhere, posted about them (again, my brain is not firing properly) and I noted they were cute and went about my day. Um, then I saw Kermit dressed up and I died of cuteness right then and there.
Look at this:
Dead from cute. I'm so sorry. Little known fact about me: I love Miss Piggy. So little known that Mums thought it was Cass or someone else who loved Piggy. I admit that she's not my usual kind of character to love but sweet baby boy who lived, kid!me adored her. My love is usually contained to just cheering her on in small clips or awwing if I see Miss Piggy stuff in the wild. I am pretty sure the only legit merch I have is a pair of Piggy Muppet Babies Happy Meal toys from when I was a kid. Pretty sure they're still around.
Anyway, I waffled a bit on whether to get Daisy or Piggy even though I wanted Piggy more despite fearing she's not as versatile for outfit changes. Mums pointed out that I could, y'know, just get Piggy and Kermit and so I did. Kermit will live in that outfit while Piggy will wear whatever. I figure if I decide she's got an outfit that just works, I will find a new itty bitty plush to dress as I'm sure the machine that is Disney will churn out more. I am fully aware that these are tiny, btw. But that Kermit! Also, I dig the fact that MP is apparently one of the tallest they've done in the US and while Kermit is allegedly the same height, he looks like he's about the size of a postage stamp. And based on review pics, he appears to actually be shorter so Piggy is still an amazon.
So Cass ordered and now I must wait for them to arrive.
Meanwhile, I have been trying to figure out which releases have already sold out because it's Disney and you fucking know they have something already. I swear, I thought the Disnerds were more organized than this. Every other time I've thought to look something up, they've got 50 billion checklists of stuff you missed in the millisecond it took you to blink. What gives, Disney people? It's not like I'm necessarily looking for the international releases. Just the stuff the US has done since *checks notes* January 19. I've found a few but nary a single checklist and I am irked by this. Don't make me do my own work, internet.
Later, when my brain stops thudding, we shall bitch about books.

Date: 2021-03-23 02:30 am (UTC)I'm not sure if any of the clothes have sold out. There are a ton of outfits now.
No, wait, the only outfit I had on my wishlist sold out. SIGH.

I wanted that for Angel. So I guess they do sell out and I'll have to buy if I see something I like.
Oh, I don't see the Chinese New Year girl outfit either. That one I got for Daisy.
April's release looks like it might be promising. They come out the 1st Monday of the month. That crazy dress is kinda cool on Angel.
Wow, there are a lot more out in Japan. Alice is adorable. PIGLET. Goofy and Max. Pinocchio! Chip and Dale. Aristocats. I haven't even seen that in decades but they're cute.
Yeah, they're addicting.

Date: 2021-03-23 02:43 am (UTC)I did a quick flip through the releases in other countries and had to stop when I found proper Halloween costumes because I cannot fall down that rabbit hole. Cannot! I do hope we get more characters as I would love all three Aristocats.
My order shipped and I'm stupidly excited. :D
