Great pick ups! I didn’t realize the border of the Merlin Muk was just a bunch of pokemon. It’s cute, but also RIP to any hardcore species collectors of those species
The Grimer and Muk stands also look great. Like you said, perfect for display!
I was so happy to see you bounce back from the prototypes on your Instagram. I don’t know if I could have done the same.
I did notice the same earlier and had to check if it affects me
i have the full sticker book tho which i could have just folded in my binder if there were any slime surprises!
Sorry if bit off topic and be a bore but idk if you know WOTC made a mistake in the translation of the Rocket Grimer. The poison gas attack should poison the other Pokemon not send them to sleep ![]()
That’s actually super fun, i’m not sure what it says about my brain level but it never crossed my mind that it’s a bit odd that poison gas just makes you fall asleep ![]()
I took some photos of the Keiko Fukuyama book pages that feature grimer since they are cute as hell! I also realised that i forgot to post a metal figure muk from bbobrob’s package so including it too here, not sure how it took so long but i finally have all the metallic colours of any slime metal figure
The art is too good! The one with the Onix rocketing off is probably my favorite of the slime pages.
It’s great that you can pretty much get the gist of the stories through just the pictures. Makes its very fun to flip through even if you can’t read Japanese!
Onix is definitely my favourite of them too, grimer is just loving the amusement park ride!
These are so cute. I really this image and Grimer looks so much like a toddler. I like how all other Pokemon are excited about the amusement part but Pidgeot and Grimer seems to have found something equally funny elsewhere.
Thanks for sharing the images.
Cheers!
There has been a crazy mayhem around 151 and gen 1 in china lately but i’m glad it has led in some great merch. I’m very grateful for both @nintenbox0731 and @orannge for helping me to get a good bunch of said merch.
There’s some great variety in chinese 151 merch and multiple of them are ones i would have never thought my relatively unpopular slime boys have a chance of getting. For example i couldn’t even dream of any slime related binders but here they are, they are so soft that i don’t want to take them in real use but fortunately there’s also stickers made from the binder cover art so i’m always reminded of the binders when i go through my slime binder.
Another item i would have never guessed grimer and muk would get is coins so boy was this release a treat with multiple different variants and even some sparkly secret rare coins. Currently i’ve gotten these variants seen in photos below but more should be coming later! There’s also some sealed coin boxes that i want to add in my display as, like so many other sealed items, these too are stylish designs and if not in display cabinet they would just sit in a storage box.
The 151 magnets also are really well designed and i’m a bit ashamed to admit that it wasn’t until i had them in hand when i realised that they can be placed next to each others like puzzle pieces. These copies i want to store in a way they are protected but my wife also fell in love with the magnets so i’m now forced to buy more of them to get them in actual use ![]()
In addition to the 151 related items i also have some slime items that i bought with the help of @orannge and some surprises that he kindly gifted to me! They are almost all some german pokemon items and it’s always cool to get such niche merch that’s never gotten in other countries. Here’s a nice selection of sticker inserts and magazine pages etc where i might be the only one in the world who needs them, but i am also the one who does love each and every one of them and i definitely want to preserve them
i have to say i especially love the german micky maus magazine sticker insert in top left of the first photo!
Oops, don’t know how I missed this update, but very nice items again! The Chinese 151 stuff has given Gen I collectors tons of great items. The coins and magnets especially are really nice (the coin colors reminds me of Gen I metal figure color chasing
).
The German items are great too. I agree—it’s always easy to find new English and Japanese stuff, but it’s a different level of exciting to find weird products that were only released in other countries (I also just like seeing the names of pokemon in other languages). The magazine insert is such a fun throwback to the sprites and games. Careful though, collecting magazine pages will lead you down a never-ending rabbit hole!
The coins and all the variant game around them have absolutely become my favourite part of this theme! I really had to debate myself if i wanted a second set for the display too but i guess i’ll settle for few examples ![]()
About the magazines pages tho, at this point i’ve been through so many rabbit tunnels that i fear nothing ![]()
I haven’t updated the slime army in a long time even though there has been tcg additions too this time, even though i’m still waiting for the art rares i have been spoiled with new tcg cards and even a new sleeve featuring grimer (even though you have to kinda know it’s there
) Still no team rocket set without my slime boys which is a trend that can continue forever
Also a rare sight regarding slime, new plushes! I love it that the pokemon fit plush theme goes through every pokemon as the quality is great and even the not that loved ones get some plush merch too
About rare sights regarding slime, we have more! One thing i could earlier only dream about was stuff like grimer and muk coins, but as seen in my earlier posts the chinese 151 release gave even that to my boys. This time i’m posting the whole coin set, including what sounds almost absurd, the secret rare grimer and muk coins
the set of coins is crazy good looking and i was even thinking i’d get a second set for my display but in the end i think i’ll settle for few examples. Also in the photo are other coin like items, banpresto battle chips, and the extra 151 magnets i got when my wife complained that i only got one of each and we won’t have any to actually use on our fridge
big thanks again for @nintenbox0731 for helping me get the 151 items!
Then a nice set of different items, i’m especially excited about the korean pan stickers and pokemon quest cardboard envelope that were in my search list for a long long time! In addition to those some charms and the successor of ga-ole and mezastar discs, pokemon frienda discs featuring alolan grimer and muk
In this photo a nice vintage skin sticker sheet my wife found and bought me, sticker sheets are really an undervalued collectible! And with it in the photo a rather funny phone cover from tropical sweets merch line that is a bit too glittery for my liking but overall the stupid smile it made on my face when i saw it was enough to make me buy it ![]()
And lastly some super skilled arts and crafts from me and my family, we made some magic dough and naturally dyed it purple to make some slime figures! Baking them in oven slightly swelled them and to add the coolness i also gave googly eyes for my masterpieces, unfortunately there weren’t any room in my display for them but it’s probably for the best since they no doubt would have outshined everything else there. (And with them a new grimer keshi figure that actually managed to fit in the display)
I love those plushies. I’m always excited to see your updates.
Wow, those are amazing additions. You may want to look for the Sitting cuties plushs with a brown tag. They seem to come in two slightly different versions.
Can you tell me about the different colors of the chinese 151 coins? I assumed there would only be 3 normal ones and one secret rare? But you have 6 different colors. That would mean, I still miss three of them.
Anyways, they just look so cool!
I also dig the Bodycals Skin Stickers sheet. This is an totally awesome addition, never came across them and I just saw them in your post for the first time. Always great to discover new merch, I had never heard of. And the Smartphone Cover is just so sweet. Its funny that they included Alolan Muk! ![]()
I don’t know why but apparently they released three more colours after the original 3
perhaps @nintenbox0731 could know something about it as he was the one who told me about the new colours ![]()
Also, not just any alolan muk but alolan muk popsicle ![]()
I love your family of slime! That is worthy of a tag in the arts and craft thread.
I’m not exactly sure about that ![]()
It took a long time but finally we got a new shelf so this poster found it’s place in our living room above the tv!
The Night Arcade items look so fresh and come with such cool designs. I can totally understand to position this beauty in such a prominent place. Love it. ![]()
