How intriguing - a collaboration fair for both magazines! There will be special showcases, playbacks and possibly news released at the event - so who knows what they might unveil!

And here are some of the sneak previews of the sticker collection:




Recaps/information about the sticker collection here.
I bought myself a box and might grab another! I think they're very cute ; o;



And for those who have been curious about the Animate cafe menu, it took ages at squinting at the screen since the kanji was tiny and barely recognisable, but I've done a quick translation of the 2013 menu!



And here is a translation of the ingredients in the Character Print Cookies and Earl Grey Tea

(all you really need to know is that the cookies have almond grounds in it so those with any nut allergies, please be careful!)

Information and photos were from HetaliaMerchandise on Tumblr!




Now onto photos of the AniKuji lottery items I've managed to gather around the net!


I'm personally really really happy with the reveal of A4 file boxes! As I suspected, they have Prussia on the other side *A*!!!






And they might not look like it from the stock/mental image, but the badges are of a decent size!
Here's a group photo from a Japanese blogger/collector:



The Japanese blogger also showed off her tapestry - and the tapestry does not disappoint! It looks amazing ; A ; <3




I'm still taking claims for the AniKuji items here, so please let me know if you're interested! :)

l-lol. Posted the covers while I'm writing up the group order.

As for the cards... That's one of the three store exclusives. Which site did you find it at? >w<

[psanon.livejournal.com]

I delayed the post for a while since I was buy talking to my friend about the cafe and kuji items ahaha |D //my room is going to be so full "orz

And that card is the official hetalia shop one!

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

... xD the official webshop is so odd sometimes.

Though I do love that it led you to post the only store exclusive that didn't include Prussia.
Here's the other two~! ;w;


Animate/Movic's straightforward, but I've never heard of the third place, so idk if that's going to be easy to get or not.

[psanon.livejournal.com]

Ahhh - silly official shop >A>
(It's like how they have reservation deadlines and still keep it open days after lol)

And could you link me to the webpost for that? Or have a larger image? That'd be the stellaworth shop, but I can't make out the last kanji after it

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

xD Pfff yes.
The silliest part though was the deadlines effecting NOTHING except for 200 yen in FJ commission-- you can't buy two items in one click anymore, but you can still buy them at their separate pages...
Of course, they had to wait until AFTER closing the orders to reveal the plastic bags, though.

Anyway. That's the full size. It's just the regular Movic listing (http://movic.jp/index.php?ctrl=sheet&code=25319).


Maybe it's something like "shop" or "webshop", then? The exact same kanji is there for mobaani shop's title, too.

[psanon.livejournal.com]

Pretty much! I'm just glad all I just didn't miss out on any Prussia stuff for the sets xD

It's definitely not webshop since that'd be a different set of words. Hmmm, I can't see it clearly, but I think it might be 株 and be an abbreviated version for the kanji for Ltd. Co and stuff? Or 様 sama? Anyways, that kanji isn't too important, it's just that the Hetalia trading cards aren't on Stellaworth? Looks like I'll just keep an eye out for them u_u;;;;

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

Well, there was a pretty long delay before they showed up on Animate/Movic, and then another before they showed up on the mobaani shop, so they should get there eventually. ;w;

[psanon.livejournal.com]

But to wait for auction or buy them whenever they show up, that is the dilemma ;A;

[vampirenaomi.livejournal.com]

Oh, these are so cute! I'm biting my hands to stop myself from trying to get those file boxes. I don't need them, I don't need them, I don't need them...

[psanon.livejournal.com]

My mantra is very much the opposite >>

[vampirenaomi.livejournal.com]

My heart is totally convinced that I need them. I'm just trying to listen to my bank account's pleas here.

[koic-244.livejournal.com]

wow everything is so gorgeous *O*//

[aleena clover (from livejournal.com)]

Darn I couldn't resist Prussia and Austria on the same side of that file box... I brought one. But at least my PruAus Doujinshi can live somewhere lol :/

[alfiedawg.livejournal.com]

A-Ahhhhhhhhh-! I got overly excited-
I THOUGHT THAT ONE PICTURE-

That the rolled up posters? Where chopsticks- orz
IF ONLY RIGHT!? Ugh... They should make chopsticks of at /least/ the Axis and Allies, but I'd love a set of just America- orz
If only... If only-...

Also, I wish someone would put up for sale;
http://hetaliamerchandise.tumblr.com/post/56320535649/info-ingredients-for-the-cookies-and-tea-from-animate
That cookie box, hell I'd love to get the cookies myself! ;u; Ahhh... Those cookies...
I even love the England tea thingy, Idk what it's called-

[psanon.livejournal.com]

Just a quick reply (before I have to run off! I'll reply to your other messages once I get home ;u;)

But the rolled up things are wall scrolls/tapestry! So essentially fabric posters, I guess? One of them is Italy and one of them has the Bad Friends Trio.

And there is chopsticks for Hetalia :D
They're not awfully pretty with lots of great design, but I do know at least one official set exists! Can't remember which design it had, so I'll get back to you on that.

And! Those cookies, I do have two or three spare cookie boxes from the Animate Cafe and the tea too! I'll reserve a box and tea set for you if you'd like?

Anyways, I'll get back to you later tonight :)

[alfiedawg.livejournal.com]

Yeah- ;u;
I know they are- I just thought for a sec it wasn't- |D
I wish it was chopsticks~! ;u;

There are?
I might have seen them before...
I am not SURE- I know they have fan made ones-

Omg-

If ya could it would mean a lot!
How much do they go for---!?

Of course!
Take care of yaself! /o/

[psanon.livejournal.com]

I found it!
These are the old chopsticks: http://www.suruga-ya.jp/database/pics/game/992002942.jpg
And the new ones are part of the sakura set: http://mobaani.com/hetalia/image/ace_set.png

I'm currently not sure for prices of the tea and cookies as I'm still doing the fees for them. But I'll put them aside for you and let you know when I do know :D

[alfiedawg.livejournal.com]

Oh! OwO
Yeah the first one isn't as nice...
They should make more but the Sakura set is mad nice!

Thank you- ;u;

Take ya time~! I don't mind- ;u;
Thank you so much for everything-
I swear the food products are usually the nicest! <3
