Star Wars tsum tsum collection


When David visited me the other day he surprised me with 6 Star Wars tsum tsums I didn't have! When the first set came out I was working and couldn't order them on the Internet before they sold out. My awesome friend Jade managed to pick me up Luke, Han, Leia, Chewie and Boba Fett, which made so happy! I honestly thought I might be able to pick the others up another time. Sadly this did not happen as they never came back in stock on the Disney Store's website. Flash forward a little while and David turned up at my house with 6 of these tsum tsums that I missed out on! I couldn't quite believe it! Clinton Cards seem to be stocking some of the first set of Star Wars tsum tsums! So I only need C-3P0 to complete my collection of the original trilogy series. I hope I can find one soon! Also did I mention he is super cute and shiny. So these new little buddies now join the rest of my collection. A collection which is actually growing very quickly. I love Disney and I can't wait to get my hands on the Beauty and the Beast set, but I am really in love with the Star Wars ones. They just seem to have captured the characters so well in tsum tsum form. I mean look at Wicket! His little face and teeth!! So sweet.

My other favourites in the set would be Leia and her cute little hair buns. Plus Chewie because he is super furry, and he looks like just a tiny fluff ball. Well lets be honest I love them all, and I feel so lucky to have them!

I received the Phantom Menace set for my birthday from David's parents. Queen Amidala's outfit is so beautiful and Darth Maul is the coolest! I think all the tiny details on these are amazing, from the lightsabers on their outfits down to Ewan McGregor's ponytail. Hurray for Star Wars merchandise! I can't wait to pick up The Force Awakens set which is coming out soon. I am excited to add a mini Rey and Kylo to my collection.

Happy Star Wars birthday

So as you can probably guess (if you follow me on other various forms of social media) I love Star Wars. SO MUCH. And I was very lucky this year as I had a lot of Star Wars merchandise for my birthday last week. The first was getting the blu-ray on the Monday and then watching it for the next 3 nights. That was an amazing present from myself to myself.
Then my birthday rolled around and I was given 4 SW balloons, two of them were BB-8! And I also ended up with 8 SW cards. I think it's fair to say my friends and family know me very well.
My parents brought me an amazing large BB-8 from the Disney Store and a large Kylo Ren (as he is my favourite, even know he is bad) #swoon also #iloveadamdriver.
My sister brought me a really cute Rey figure/plastic doll. It's pretty neat, and I love that it actually kinda looks like Daisy Ridley too. She also got me an amazing Storm Trooper cushion, which will be going straight on my bed. Plus Star Wars Lego sets! They really are the best!
David got me two itty bitty's one being Rey and of course my favourite Kylo. He also managed to track down a 3.75inch Kylo Ren unmasked figure. I have been trying for weeks to find the new wave of figures in the UK, but I'm not having much luck. No where seems to have them. So of course I was super shocked to get one for my birthday.
Also David's parents got me the complete episode 1 tsum tsums, which I was super happy about! How cute is Darth Maul?!?
I was absolutely spoilt on my birthday this year, and I'm so glad most of it was Star Wars merchandise. I am completely addicted to all the Star Wars merchandise now, as I feel I'm re-living my childhood.

Coffee date by the sea

Monday afternoon I met David for coffee. We decided to visit Very Vintage as we had a lovely time last visit.
The coffee shop always looks different, as the changing of stock helps. Lots of gems to look through. We ordered coffee and they appeared in the cutest China cups. Such a perfectly English way to drink coffee.
That morning I had managed to track down some of the Disney Lego mini figures which are meant to come out this week, but a store had them early. We opened them in the shop, and I was really happy with my pulls. Hurray for Disney Lego!
Then we went treasure hunting. I love looking through all the amazing vintage and charity shops by the sea. You never know what you will find, and that's always so exciting.
