Dakimakuras anyone?

Dood, page not found.The blog died before I get to see anything?

BTW, I really hate how mandarake also don't state the amount of stock left.
I just received my Dracu-riot cover from mandarake, which I like quite a bit. But I did not notice they had another copy instock. Then I was a bit late when it became out of stock the next day. RATS!

As for our Marks cover, The shipping isn't even mid may, should end may already which means I won't get my no real covers together.>_

That's my bad for linking from fc2; I know they're notoriously bad at having working links, but I did it anyway. I'm fairly certain you're not missing out on anything, but here's a blog link in the off chance that you were:

Them not listing stock is a definite downside, but I just always assume it's 1, even in the case of doujinshi which they usually relist within a day of me picking it up. I'd rather do that and buy stuff when it's put up (where I can) versus risking something selling out before I get it.

Actually, it was clear and helpful. One of the things I like about it is that it becomes "local" shipping.

Yep, it means that we usually get things a bit slower than people who use the service that aren't in the US, but it can definitely save a good deal of money over time. And the 3 months storage time allows for once to accumulate fairly large batch orders. ^^

I'm really tempted into trying to start a collection of dakis. They all look really tempting and seems just fun to collect them, just like figures.

Don't know if my wallet can put up with it though. :\

On a side note :

I want this on a daki :

It's a really fun hobby, which makes it incredibly easy to become addicted to. I was largely hesitant when I purchased my first about two years ago, but since then I've been collecting them at an absolutely ridiculous pace.

Unfortunately it can be absurdly expensive; the covers by themselves are already very expensive but when you consider the idea of purchasing more than one or two, it can add up really quickly. If you do decide to get into the hobby, feel free to ask any questions you have here. ^^

Oh yeah, I read about saving them into batches instead of just continuously shipping them one by one as they come in. Of course that's if the other orders are in a timely manner in between each other. I might end up using SMJ as my main service because I like the 14 day payment period and the method of not having to pay until they receive the item.

EDIT:
Looks like Clochette is going to have a web order for Manami. http://blog.xn--er-573a1isbf1441e2hs87j.jp/archives/8076

Something I'm curious about this link to a few of their products, http://clochette-soft.jp/html/event/index.html. How would you go about contacting SMJ on what to purchase on this page? Do I just tell them I want to purchase on that page?

Aside from the Manami cover itself, I was looking at the Goods Set "Kamikaze ☆ Explorer!" but I don't know if it still on sale, D:. It has the A4 and A3 poster and all them other goodies!

Unfortunately that's the event page, which lists the items they sold only at specific events (comiket, mybride, akihabara events etc). You can only get them at the event or on YJA afterwards. However, they do often sell a lot of them after events too through web orders, and they are currently selling that goods set as well as the dakimakura (assuming the set you mean is the "「カミカゼ☆エクスプローラー！」グッズセット≪2012春≫"). Tell Yokatta to buy them from https://e-shoprussell.jp/hanbai/index.php?R_km_url=89 Items with a red 完売 instead of a pulldown menu are no longer stocked, so currently just the dakimakura (pre-order) and the set (in stock now I believe) are available.

Correct me if I'm wrong but seems like it's the cover and the soundtrack that's available.

And BTW, got news for Ruka? Patience is wearing kinda thin.

You're right, the set was in stock earlier but is sold out now. No, they ignored my question about what items they had for me and only answered my question about a new order :P

Ahh, ok. Thanks for the clarification. That's very unfortunate. It would of been awesome to get two posters and other goodies to deck out my room!

Looks like the marks web order covers have been sent out already, we should receive them this upcoming week.

Tommorrow is gonna be hell fighting for the Anko Alicia covers.>_>

Yeah, I saw a few on YJA already, so I think it's just a matter of them arriving at the various destinations as I imagine they're probably shipped in batches (over 2-3 days.)

As much as I'd love to join the bidding for one myself, I can't afford it at the moment since the Marks order is imminent and I already have other shit I need to pay for. T_T Guess I'll have to hope for an eventual weborder...

marks droping new shit soon huh? and that bw store cover w/ the two girls is amazing. i like how they giving the option of kimono and nude. as long as these people keep producing these covers i don't see myself giving up this hobby >.>

Received my Raika cover by Clesta and all I gotta say is that the print quality of the image is phenomenal. I was wondering what previous characters has Clesta put out.

Don't know if this is everything, but I've seen these two as well:

http://www.toranoana.jp/mailorder/article/04/0010/20/67/040010206735.html

And what do you know, that old 2009 cover is having a re-release.

But luckily, I'm not crazy for it, half a set doesn't appeal to me.^_^

could I get some help please? my hug pillow case is 4ft 55inches x 1ft 18inches...what size pillow should I get to fill the inside?

Ahh, I see. So that Toranoana link is from Cresta. I thought it was just someone with similar art style since they didn't put Cresta as the circle name or anything.

To further delve into Cresta, I actually just visit I guess it is their blog? Or past releases, but I couldn't help but to notice this mouse pad of this trap's ball sack. Now it cause quite a stir on SanCom, and I was wondering where the hell that was from. One wouldn't admit certain things, but I enjoy traps to a certain extent. Not saying I'm going to purchase that mousepad though, of course.



I would say a 150x50
Which is 60inx19.6in if you convert it.

Or you can run a 20inx50in by Royal Pillow, and it seems to run pretty close to your hug pillow case size.

Heh, yeah. I posted anonymously twice in that thread. Overall, I can't stand the site since it basically just spams affiliate posts without any real content, but every now and then there will be a decent post... my main comment relating to the thread was so heavily down-voted the first time. :(

The pad sold at an event a few weeks ago, but was/is available over on Toranoana.
