To say I am happy is a complete understatement today! I have loved the Brave Little Toaster movie ever since I was a kid, I used to recreate all the scenes with my Lego. When I was older I bought the DVD and the soundtrack and to my suprise I found out it was based on a book of the same name.
For years I have been looking for a copy that wasn't hundreds of pounds (it is very very rare) but the other night I randomly decided to look up some stuff on eBay and found this for an absolute steal! I still can't believe I finally own a copy. The same night I also managed to find a copy of it's sequel for a very reasonable price too but I had to import it from the USA. It is more widely available but usually they are listed as acceptable condition, the one got was listed as very good so fingers crossed
The two TV shows were upgrades from DVD, these two are starting to get pricey now so I picked them up before they shoot up too much.
Sorry for the big story about the book but I am just so happy to finally own it

I managed to get hold of a copy of the Gankutsuou collectors edition steelbook from a very nice seller on eBay. Can't wait to watch it 
2025 HAUL - MAY v2

#05: The Penguin
A few years ago we got Matt Reeves' The Batman which was great, and they released a continuation in the form of a television series called The Penguin, focusing on the same character portrayed by Colin Farrell. The series aired on HBO Max in North America but in the UK it was on Sky Atlantic which is not the ideal experience, so I decided to wait. And the wait paid off because they eventually released it on 4K Ultra HD. It was a steelbook first in March, but I only discovered very recently that it was also available in standard edition a month later.
#06: Crunchyroll UK Ani-May Haul
Crunchyroll UK runs another sale and I figured it was another opportunity to grab more of their releases. For some reason I just haven't bothered to get any of them when they first come out and I wonder if that's because with UP1 no longer handling the anime releases for stock that there wasn't enough alternatives to get them for solid deals.
Anyway I grabbed a whole bunch, so here's five of them for the time being. Starting off with the two that I have watched during simulcast with 86 EIGHTY-SIX and Chainsaw Man. Both are great shows and definitely worth a watch. I turned down the special edition for the latter because I didn't want to own Vinyl.
Next we have three shows that aired in 2023 that I didn't watch during simulcast but were on my to-watch list for curiosity. Am I Actually the Strongest?, A Galaxy Next Door and The Kingdoms of Ruin, each of these are different but share a fantasy theme to them.

#07: Video Games Plus Haul
Canadian retailer Video Games Plus, one of the best retailers for picking up video games, ran a special promotion where you can get 2x bonus points so I figured I'll grab some Nintendo Switch games though I did struggle to pick and choose which ones to get. I eventually settled on four games, three of which I actually already own on PlayStation 4 but I wanted to own them for Switch as well.
Catherine Full Body is the expanded version of the original puzzle classic. I recently played the original and it's surprisingly addictive on its puzzle mechanics and great fun, and because of its style I figured the Switch would be the best way to keep it going. I will still likely play it on PS4 first but for any extra time I'll go with the Switch.
Final Fantasy IX is the classic PlayStation JRPG on the go. So this was only released digitally in the west (and a code in the box for Europe) so the only way to own it physically is in Asia, and thankfully the Asian release supports English. The remaster includes some quality of life improvements similar to Final Fantasy VII to make the pacing better for modern players. There is supposedly a remake in the works but I don't think it'll be around for a while.
God Wars: The Complete Legend is an expanded version of God Wars: Future Past which was released on the PlayStation 4 and Vita. I passed on the game initially but NIS America's publishing rights for the game alongside a couple other Kadokawa Games titles had expired, which meant this was now out of print and unavailable. The Switch version was still available and when I discovered that it was also a tactical RPG I decided to pick it up whilst stock were still available.
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy is a collection covering the first three in the Ace Attorney franchise originally released on Game Boy Advance (with the west discovering them on Nintendo DS); 2001's Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, 2002's Phoenix Wright: Justice for All, and 2004's Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations. I also own this on PlayStation 4 but after some consideration and how the games were originally made for the portable platform I decided to support the franchise via the Switch versions moving forward.

Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE+ Lucid-Noir Limited Edition (PS5) from The Game Collection.
I was waiting for the standard edition to go on offer, but the LE was only an extra £15 compared to the cheapest the standard edition has been - so I thought why not? Better to get it sooner rather than later, before it disappears forever.
Included is a standard edition of the game, a steelbook, a CD soundtrack, a printed novel, and a cool plush. Not bad for £40.

These arrived yesterday, they were pretty rubbish tbh and I def won't be buying them again (the brand is Abeec, I can't comment on their other art supplies as I've not tried them), the main issue was that the glue from them kinda "floats/swims" on the paper almost, not adhering to it anywhere near as well as Docrafts Glitz it or Elmers, so it's very easy to mess up your work if you knock it a bit, etc, it does appear to have dried now so I'll get to work on sorting out the scrapbook page I used it on yesterday
