[News] New merchandise! Again!

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

Super cute art choices are super cute, and bring us a new line of Metal Charms as well as two things we haven't seen in Hetalia's merchandise history yet~




First, is a cookie tin!
It's not huge; 11 cm tall, and 10.5 cm in diameter. It contains 10 cookies, apparently Earl Grey flavour, and comes with 1 or 2 stickers, of the following designs:



Next up, Trading Shot Glasses!
One for each of the World 8~
They're about 6.3 cm tall, and only sold in a box of all 8.



Then finally, a new Metal Charm Collection~!
I'll need to rename things on the item guide now fff
Seriously adorable, and bringing us cardverse art that's not exclusive to buying Arte Stella! Each charm's about 5 cm tall, with gold coloured backing and the same little "Hetalia" tag as the previous set. They're sold in a box of all 14.




Everything's released on August 2nd, the same time as the mobile cleaners revealed earlier.
I'll definitely be hosting a group order for the charms and shot glasses in the near future, so if you want any for yourself, you might not be out of luck~!


Update: I've opened the group order!
For all those interested, you can find the page here~
Don't worry if your character's sold out; the order limit is 10 boxes, so as long as slots fill up, everything should be fine.

Finally the art gets something with a little more substance than paper.

*JOINS WITH YOU*

The worst part is I need two of the Russia shot glasses.
I need to keep everything mint. But. Come on. Russia shot glass. How can I possibly own one and not put vodka in it?

[psanon.livejournal.com]

;m;

Blagh. Life. ANIMATE, YOU ARE DOING THIS ON PURPOSE;;;;;;;;;;;
How am I going to keep paying for my collection at this rate sob.

P.S. I know it's early, but is it possible to put in a claim for the Prussia charm? ;O;''

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

Yeah sure~!
I've already thrown an offer over to raz2b to see if she wants either France thing, too. Then I've still got someone to ask about America and England before I post.

I'm thinking $11 for charms and $15 for shot glasses, but I'm not 100% sure yet.
.__. Problem's just weighing the retail value and what will never sell against each other.

[psanon.livejournal.com]

Thank youuu~ ;u;
How many you ordering just 1 box, or? (I wouldn't mind a Germany and Russia too xD;)

Sfjdskfd Yeah, it'll be hard to figure that out. :C
Sigh, fingers crossed there will be people interested in the less popular characters? "Orz

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking one for sure, more as claimed. Animate doesn't have an order limit on either of these, so up to 10 boxes are possible.

Would you want Germany regardless of whether Russia's available? Because I could put you down for Prussia and Germany in box one, then Russia in box two, and see after that whether or not there's enough funds for the second box?
It's easy enough to open with slots for say, three boxes of each, and just warn that the previous boxes need to fill up before the later ones stand a chance of actually being purchased. Extra claims also mean protection from the ones who like backing out.


/o/ Yup. I mean, I counted Germany as one who won't sell, and there you are for the charm...
I just need to get to the post office asdfghdfs three paid orders have been waiting so lonnnng so I really can't let myself take on anything else until they're gone. xD

[shayminlove.livejournal.com]

Any chance I could put a claim on the America charm?

[psanon.livejournal.com]

Ahh! Yes please! Prussia & Germany charm for the first set and Russia for box 2 if we get enough interest ;v;)b

I only buy Germany if there is a Prussia in the same set xD Aka, if there is Prussia in a set of something then I'm more likely to buy Germany/Russia/France/Spain. If there is no Prussia in the set, then the likelihood of me buying the other characters go down a hell lot, oops xD;;;;;;;;
So if you ever do group orders for stuff and there's a Prussia in the set, throw me a message and I might be able to take a claim on Prussia along with one or a few of those other characters >w>)b

And pfff! Please go and do your orders first xDDDD

P.S. My friend might be interested in a Germany shot glass.

[shayminlove.livejournal.com]

Yes! I LOVE cardverse America! I actually cosplayed as him at my local con.^^ I am pleased the art is used for more merchandise. I especially love charms. :3 But my wallet!

[omgimsuchadork.livejournal.com]

OMG Cardverse charms. Any chance I could claim Liechtenstein? And the UK shot glass? *A*

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

I know how it is. xD I don't and won't ship Hungary and Prussia, but, to try to limit them and keep from letting Pru drain my wallet, I won't buy either of them unless they're both in the same set.
... Not that that's kept out random extras like coasters and bookmarks that appear out of nowhere. Or the <$2 Gilbird that I honestly expected to lose. But.


These charms might either save me or break me, though. I can't buy that Prussia without Sealand. I can't buy that Hungary without Austria. ; n ; Matching outfiiiits. <3
But if I buy even one more thing of Sealand or Austria I swear I'm going to cave and need all their merchandise. T__T Austria's onecoin and plushie are so dfhdfghdh cute. And Sealand almost fits in because Latvia's best friend, right? But then I'll need Sweden, and Finland,
and if I have a Finland collection, may as well start on China too and make it everyone Russia likes.
*HEADWALLS FOREVER*

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

Once the page is up, sure~
I'm thinking tomorrow or the next day, though. I need to get some previous orders 100% finished before I start taking on more.

[omgimsuchadork.livejournal.com]

Cool, thanks! Sorry for jumping the gun, it's just that I almost never see these sales happen until everything is gone, usually. ^_^;

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

Yeaaah some people are really fast. But I just don't want to have any users committed to buying before I've settled on the final prices.

Luckily I don't think Liecht will sell out too fast. And since I need to get doubles of Russia's shot glass, there'll definitely be multiple slots for characters there~

//high 5 for fussy collectors thatshouldstopspendingsob ;u;)/*\(;u;

Pfff--- The charms-- just, UGH, EVERYTHING LATELY. WHY;;;;;;
They aim to bankrupt us man. ;m;
Good luck with the charms and PFFFF--- RESIST TEMPTATION! OR YOU'LL JUST END UP COLLECTING /EVERYTHING/ XD;;;

OMG CARDVERSE MY HEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART /dies

I'M SO CLAIMING ENGLAND (and America, if available) ONCE IT'S OUT /dies

[tarafishes.livejournal.com]

kdhfsdj why don't I have money /;A;/ Or maybe I will, but gaaaah who knows if I'll squander my birthday money away by August! But good luck getting some, everyone who can!

Oh, right, and I think your image is too tall? The source code only says you altered the width and not the height to be 300.

[boo-sagara.livejournal.com]

OMG everything is so cute *A*!!!

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

T__T I feel the saaame.
I need all my money for shipping... Can't buy more things. But I have toooo. D:


It's a square~ At least, image properties say "380px × 380px (scaled to 300px × 300px)"

[tarafishes.livejournal.com]

;n; Start putting a little bit away now? /o\ How limited are these things? And, well, they'll be released in August so you have some time to prepare?

It looks square to me, but the source code said otherwise, is all! I wasn't sure /o\ Though, now that I realized I can do that much easier using inspect element, you appear to be right. Sorry about that!

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

I really don't know how they'll end up. D: All I know is preorders are open right now so shdgfhs need to buyyy xDD


Oh, if you modify only one length, the other automatically changes to scale~
If you have a really odd sized image, then, you only have to change the longer dimension, and the computer figures out the rest for you. /o/

[tarafishes.livejournal.com]

AKJhsd that's unnerving! They should give a bigger frame for preparation!

It does!? I was told you had to edit both. . .that's really convenient! Thank you for telling me! \o\!! That's really helpful and saves me from unnescessary math! Hurray!

SHOT. GLASSES.
Screw the vodka, I'd put anything alcoholic shot-required like cachaça or rum - BUT SHOT GLASSES HGGN I WANT IT
Oooh, metal charms.... I'd love to get a France one ;A;
