TOKIO PLUSHIES!!!! :D

[guingel]

YAAAAAAY! I mentioned them earlier and now they're done - I am now the proud mama of a full compliment of tiny TOKIO dolls! :D



LOOK HOW CUTE. Click to view it full sized to see Mabo's tiny glasses!! Also, look how happy I am to have them! XD




Again, click to view full sized. ^_^ They're a little paler than they actually are - Taichi is wearing a pink t-shirt. And an ADORABLE LITTLE CARDIGAN!! And you can't see it in the picture but Leader's shirt is sparkly. XD Oh, Leader. And Yamaguchi's arms are bigger than everyone else's, and Nagase is taller than everyone else (and Taichi is teeny!) and he has his tattoo-protection wristband, and his Sorafune hair!



Leader's awkward highlights. ^_^ YAY HE'S SO LEADERY!



Yamaguchi's Get Your Dream-era hair! I loooove this hair and I think Katie did an incredible job with it! :D No one else's hair needed a back view but they're all amazing!!

Eeeee, they're so tiny and cute and happy and squeezable! :D Cutest, happiest, squishiest, most TOKIO-ish present ever!! And tiny V6 is already in production! Now when I say "ickle Ken-pants" I am actually referring to the tiny pants Katie is crocheting for Miyake Ken. ^_^

::squeezes TOKIO::


Leave a comment and tell Katie how awesome they are, cos she worked hard on them. ^_^

Also, I have to say, I am way too into that appearance Nagase made on Love Love Aishiteru that BlueStorm subbed. It's from October 1997 and he is really at a peak of cute, innocent, slightly dim shyness. And a peak of hair. Haaaaaaair. But it's all, like, Koichi giving the audience a hard time and Nagase just having these sweet little smiles. It kills me. I don't get sick of watching it. I took a couple caps to memorialize it. (They're always saying that at work - the agency is really big into keeping very careful and accurate records. Which is a good thing, of course (although loads of paper is wasted!) but I'm not used to hearing people say "Let's print that so we have a memorial of me fixing that bug.")

Apartment stress is depriving me of sleep. XD Hopefully it'll all be done with soon. Was really sleepy today. And am sick of living in suspense. But the Doing Business review of the latest disclosure statement submissions began today, and it went well so far! We have twenty days (three weeks, not 20 business days) to finish it up and notify everyone. ::bites nails::

OH LORD CUUUUUTE

[guingel.livejournal.com]

:D SO CUTE! They make me super-happy, they're all lying around, relaxin' and smilin'.

THE LEADER ONE. OMGGGGGG. *SQUISHES IT AND FLEES*

[guingel.livejournal.com]

He's amazing!! He actually managed to get his hair sewn on so his shirt is backwards - the part where it doesn't quite meet up is in the front instead of in the back like all the others. XD Katie tells me she checked which side it was, then put him down, and when she'd picked him up he was somehow backwards so the hair still got sewn on wrong. It is an amazing feat of Leader-dom. ::pokes him in the tummy::

[iverin.livejournal.com]

O WAO LEADER.

Fail even in KNIT FORM!

[darkeyedwolf.livejournal.com]

AHHHH TOKIO PLUSHIES!!!

[guingel.livejournal.com]

ARE THEY NOT THE BEST IDEA EVER?? TINY MABISH ATTITUDE! TINY RED SHOES!

[elyndys.livejournal.com]

Those are amazing! *_* Katie should take commissions! :D

[guingel.livejournal.com]

Eee, I will tell her you said so ^_^ Apparently an arts and crafts website she goes to said she should charge $10/hour for her work, so that makes one of these babies cost at least $20 (or I guess £10) which seems like a lot to me. Then again, I have them already and don't need to pay at all, so I don't know how desperate I'd be if I didn't have them.

[elyndys.livejournal.com]

I'd probably pay that for a tiny Eito Ranger or two, if she felt like branching out... #^^#

[guingel.livejournal.com]

Hehehehe, I think she might consider it! (And with Eito Rangers she doesn't have to try and figure out characteristic clothing to put them in!) Anyone in particular?

[elyndys.livejournal.com]

Seriously?? :D That would be the greatest thing ever! ♥♥♥ I'd love a little Red and a little Blue to keep him company - I'm already imagining photostrip adventures... ;D

[guingel.livejournal.com]

Lemme see how she feels - she's right in the middle of V6-making (and she just lost her crochet hook, so things might take a while XD) so I don't want to get your hopes up too much. Also, I don't know how payment would be negotiated? O.o I've never sold anything over the internet before. . .

They might also end up being a bit smaller than these guys but with Red and Blue that'd pretty much be scale, right?

[elyndys.livejournal.com]

with Red and Blue that'd pretty much be scale, right?

LOL that sounds about right! XD

If it doesn't work out, that's absolutely fine! But if she does happen to have a little spare time (and a fresh crochet hook...!) I'd gladly pay the going rate! I usually PayPal when it comes to internetular finances, but in the past I've also just gone down to the Post Office and got some $$!

[guingel.livejournal.com]

OK! She says she's game, and she said if you're paying her she'll put V6 aside temporarily and focus on them! (She also says they tend to be a fairly uniform size - I thought maybe she could cut down on time and therefore cost by making them a bit smaller but it turns out that involves recalculating. What do I know?)

Hmmm, we don't have paypal set up or anything. D: You could just mail us cash dollars?

I'm totally going to get her to make me a little Nasu soon, too! :D

[elyndys.livejournal.com]

OK, I can mail cash! :) How much do you think shipping will be? :D

Awww a little Nasu! Will she be able to crochet in the fangs? ;D

[guingel.livejournal.com]

Argh, I was trying to look into it and I got really confused. I think it should count as a small package so the shipping will be somewhere in between $5 and $10 but I'm going to weigh a couple of mine maybe and also talk to someone who's maybe shipped things more than me.

The US Postal Service website is great if you need to find a postal code or if you want to know whether or not an address really exists, but it is crap for finding out shipping costs - really confusing and weird.

[nitrosss.livejournal.com]

LOOK HOW ADORABLE THEY ARE. NAGASE, MABO AND TAICHI ARE HOLDING HANDS ON THE SECOND PICTURE. D'AWWWWWW.

Link me to this video pretty pretty please.

and pls hear from your apartment soon so you can go to sleep! :D

[guingel.livejournal.com]

RIDICULOUSLY CUTE, YES?

Torrent to video is here (http://bluestorm-subs.com/?page_id=24). There's some stuff that's not Nagase at the beginning but more than half of it is him and it's sooo worth it.

argh, yes.

[nitrosss.livejournal.com]

YESYESYES.

I put it to download just now but it says it has 0 seeds. ): I'll leave it on all day anyway to see if there's progress. :D! THanks for the link!!

[guingel.livejournal.com]

Okay! If there's no activity by the time we're next both on MSN I'll pop it on MU or something for you.

[shimmeredusk.livejournal.com]

Dude that is the most awesome set of dolls ever! XDDDD ♥ Your friend did an amazing job XD

[guingel.livejournal.com]

:D Actually, she's my twin sister! Being a twin is awesome, she's super craftsy and makes me all kinds of nice things.

[shimmeredusk.livejournal.com]

ghjfdhfjklaghajfldkagfhdjlk that's even more amazing XD!!!!!! But TOKIO plushies are just plain genius XD

[guiltyschu.livejournal.com]

*cracking up* Those are brilliant! You can definitely tell from that picture who's taller than who, and who's arms are bigger than everyone else's too. :D Amazing!

[guingel.livejournal.com]

Hehehe, glad the pictures get across the genius behind them! :D I figured I didn't really need to specify who was who!

[ayamachi.livejournal.com]

CUTE EXPLOSION. I'm going to ninja little Taichi away in your sleep. But then you would be sad, so I couldn't do that. D: No sad Laura's!

I decided to take a nap at 7 or 8pm or so, and i Just woke up at 3am, so that sucks. I MISSED YOUR TAKKI WHACK IT HARD MESSAGE. Now I'm sad.

[guingel.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd pout at you, and no one wants that! I wielded the pout on Tom to great effect. (That reminds me, I have to tell you what the boys taught me about penises while I was there. Sadly, it did not involve Stefan demonstrating anything.)

Holy crap, waking up at 3 AM. But if you sleep from 7 to 3 that's like, 7 hours so you should totally be able to stay awake all day, right? And not fall asleep just when I get home again. :D

Takki does whack it hard.

[ayamachi.livejournal.com]

ARE YOU MESSING AROUND ON THE INTERNET AT WORK. Shame! >:D And don't worry, I'll be on when you get home today! And then you can tell me the penis story.

Also I ate a Boston cream donut a couple hours ago. Then i started feeling really sick. IT WAS DELICIOUS THOUGH. NO REGRETS!!

[guingel.livejournal.com]

Hey, if you look at the time on that comment, you'll note that it's just as I was supposed to start work - i may have interneted slightly after 8:30 but that's because I started work half an hour early the other day so I just slipped in a couple minutes here. ^_^ I am extremely virtuous, I assure you!!

I AM TELLING YOU THE PENIS STORY RIGHT NOW. Even as I type this comment to you. Because I'm a dork.

Yeah, well, my entenmann's donut was delicious! And it finally started up my metabolism cos I was hungry at lunch today. Except I wanted leftovers. :(

[ayamachi.livejournal.com]

And now I'm watching something about Maya rituals and how they pierced their penises for blood letting ceremonies. And they're in this cave where they performed the ceremonies, and all the stalagmites are penis shaped and it's hilarious. I DON'T KNOW WHY I THOUGHT OF YOU OR ANYTHING. >:D

[guingel.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHA FOR THE RECORD, I NORMALLY FIND BODY MODIFICATION GROSS - no matter how bizarre it may or may not be. I can't even read National Geographic. XD Or look at the Guinness Book of World Records.

[ayamachi.livejournal.com]

I bet you're lying. :3 But ew yeah, the world records stuff freaks me out.

[kegom.livejournal.com]

OK, since I'm sure Katie can read your comments, I'm going to speak directly to her:


KATIE YOU ARE A CROCHETING GODDESS! *____*


Those are really seriously cute! ^____^



..You know I used to be rather good at arts and crafts too, so maybe I should stop surfing the internet so much and start doing that again... ^__^ I'm going to have an internship in a school this September, so I might use my free time there to fold some origami-Ohmiya...

[guingel.livejournal.com]

Hehehe, I'll make sure she sees your message. ^_^ She really is amazing!

Awww, origami Ohmiya! That sounds adorable!! I can do some origami but nothing like people - just boxes and flower petals. XD It's all I remember, but I can do them really well!

Katie goes to lots of crafts sites, so you can combine your internet-surfing and crafts-doing! Although then you might just look at other people's rather than doing your own. . .

[tomo-naki.livejournal.com]

Uwaah..
Cute.
I want!!

LOL


BTW, I added you up. I hope you don't mind.
Reason: Because you are awesome..
Does that work for you? LOL


See you around.
