January 2017- the mad month of tsums!

Hi all- I apologise for the lateness AGAIN! Christmas has been a busy time and I've been visiting family and friends; I'm writing this as I wait to ring in the new year!

I was very surprised to see the collection picture that Disney released a bit late after the last TTT and there's loads of collections in store and they all seem to be coming on 3rd January! Have a look here...

I'm hoping to go in store early but I think it'll be mad- I only want The Aristocats! I haven't even heard of singing tsum tsums before in Japan so I think these are really new!

I wonder if there'll be another release this month; no one will have any money left and I imagine the website will probably crash! 

That's all for now and I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and wish you all the best for 2017!!

Where is the January 2017 collection for TTT Europe?

Hi all! I hope you all got your Star Wars tsums yesterday- I'm late again! I've just come back from uni for the holidays and completely forgot; and I guess it doesn't matter so much this time as Disney haven't even announced a collection for the next TTT- the US is getting the Aristocats and I really hope we are too as I love cats! <3

Please note this has only been confirmed for the US as of 21/12/16

Those of you who have got tsum tsum plush advent calendars and are opening them properly I hope you're as pleased as me (well apart from me finding my Pluto only had 1 eye and got a small Pluto soft toy worth £12.95 as a sorry) and are looking forward to Christmas!

Clintons however have had 4 of the Moana set in in time for Christmas and also tsum tsum money boxes! (pictures from https://www.clintonsretail.com/search/?q=tsum+tsum+moana )

 I'll be sure to keep an eye on the Disney Store website over Christmas and keep you updated if there are any TTT announcements- let's hope it's not the end just yet!

Have a lovely peaceful Christmas and New Year!

Finding Dory and Nemo sets released today! December 2016

Hi all! Hope you managed to get what you wanted today with the Nemo and Dory releases!
December's second release was announced today and it'll be two Star Wars sets just in time for Christmas!

Here they are:

This is the first Star Wars themed bag to be released so they're getting popular now!

See you soon!

First collections announced for first TTT of December 2016!

Hi all; as per usual with the release of the Moana set today, two new sets were announced for the first TTT of December. See below:

A bit of a surprise as I hadn't heard any rumours but I haven't been keeping on the tsum tsum grape vine recently; quite nice to see Disney haven't forgotten Finding Nemo after 13 years!

Until next time and happy collecting!

November tsum update!

Hi all! Wow well this morning was very hectic! I was up at 7:30am to get the Advent Calendar- the tsums were online but the site wouldn't let anybody checkout; then the site kept crashing with the traffic of people trying to get online. Sometime after 8am the site went down for maintenance, probably to sort the problem out! It went back online after 9am and I managed to check out through a Facebook link, stuff already in my basket was showing as sold out! (Although as Disney never seems to recognise my login details unless I have autofill on I had to do it as a guest which was annoying). As I'm in Bristol now I don't have a Disney Store in town, the nearest one is Cardiff! Thankfully I am on reading week this week so I could be online!

I'm hoping everyone got what they wanted as there were tight limits online and apparently little stock in stores.

Anyway so the next collection this month is Moana! I'm very excited for it and I believe the film will be released in the UK next month? Not sure.

Anyone who missed out on the Monsters Inc set, Clintons yesterday announced the release of the whole set (all but Fungus) so grab some while you can!

That's all for now and enjoy the tsum madness in the run up to Christmas!

Disney Store 1st TTT of November 2016 collections!

Hi all! Sorry I'm late again- vet school is keeping me busy as usual! I'm so excited for next month's first TTT, as they're releasing a tsum tsum advent calendar! The others I'm not so bothered about, but as I can't eat milk chocolate without reacting, the tsum tsum calendar is perfect for me! I was considering a beauty advent calendar, but I already have a lot I need to use up so it's tsums for me!

Here are the first batch of next month's collections!

The calendar will be priced at £80, which may sound steep but it doesn't work out as much more than £3 per tsum which is their normal price, and the ones in this calendar will be special festive editions so it's not completely extortionate in hindsight.
Disney Store UK also confirmed in response to customers that the Mickey and Minnie duo will be £6.99 and the Christmas carol box set will be £29.99.

Someone also asked about a Moana set being released here in Europe and Disney said not on the 1st November, so I imagine it'll be either in December or November's second TTT. This is a collection
picture announced on the US Disney Store site, Disneystore.com

Disneystore.com has really upped their stock of tsum in recent times to include Disney Parks exclusives and further merchandise like clothing and mugs that I haven't seen available in Europe. It's a shame it's so expensive to import :(.

Clinton's have also brought out a Marvel set online and in stores so take a look if you're interested!

Upcoming Collections for October and some sightings at Clintons!

Hi again! I haven't posted for ages due to busy-ness and also I have moved to University! So I've only just got chance to look at the upcoming tsum tsum collections for next TTT and my word it's a good one! The Dumbo ones look so sweet and I have loved The Muppets for a long time so I'm hoping I can get them! They will be released on the 4th October so be on the ball from 8am online!

The bags are normally priced around £19.95.

Also spotted at Clintons online is this very sweet little set:

This is priced at £20 and includes princesses sold out at Disney Store, although I don't like the quality of posh paws it's a great opportunity for anyone who isn't so bothered!

Clintons also announced on their Instagram that they should be getting Beauty and the Beast and other sets in October so for anyone who missed out on these at Disney Store cross your fingers for the full set!

1st September Collections Announced! Plus other finds at Clintons and Disney Store!

A couple of exciting TTT collections were announced yesterday for September! Take a look!

There have been requests floating about for a villains set so I think Disney may have listened. The NBC box set also marks a year since the last NBC set was released and now even comes in a funky box!

Clintons also announced on their Twitter a couple of days ago that Aladdin tsums are now available (Posh Paws made) which include all the character except Rajah. Seems Disney is reluctant to give PP the licence to make the complete sets!

Another find when I looked into Disney Store last weekend is large expression tsums! I have seen no announcement or notice online about them so they seem to be appearing in stores!

My store (Derby) only had a winking Mickey but on talking to other people in the Facebook group I'm part of, large winking Pooh and Minnie and angry Stitch and Donald have also been seen, so keep your eyes out! (First photo is mine, second courtesy of Abby Louise on Facebook)

Medium winking piglet spotted online at disneystore.co.uk

2nd August release announced!

Hi all! I hope you managed to get all the tsums you wanted in today's madness! They've sold out online pretty quick.

The next set is yet another Star Wars one, Disney are sure going mental...

Me not being into Star Wars this means nothing to me but another Storm Trooper? Aren't they all the same? Or is he a special one for some reason?

Anyway that's all for now see you soon!

2nd July Collection plus Upcoming Mega Month of Collections for August

Hi All! Just now I logged on to the Disney Store Site to see what the next set is for the UK and Europe, or should I say SETS! Disney are really pulling out all the stops !

I'm SO excited!

The dragons look sooo cute and the Beauty and the Beast set looks amazing! Plus the peas in a pod I don't think were even released in Japan (I'm pretty sure the Alien set has already been released there).

What are you most looking forward to? :D

Monsters Inc release + second July collection announcement!

Hi all! It's that time of the month again, TTT!

Today the UK and Europe saw the release of this Monsters Inc set!

I have no idea why but the US got two extra tsums and I'm really jealous, especially of the extra Boo, see here:

I didn't grab any of the Monsters inc set unfortunately but I do like the look of the large Sully and medium Mike that was released so will have to check my local stores soon to see if there are any left- some of the minis have already sold out online.

The next collection has also been announced, nice to see some featuring heroines! As you may know from reading my blog I'm not into Marvel much but I imagine those who are will be very excited by these!

That's all for now, I hope to be more timely with updates as I've finished school now and looking forward to my summer holidays!

1st July Set announced and Jungle Book online at Clintons now!

I'm late to the party again as usual as it's STILL exam season- from today I have 2 left and will be free by Thursday!
So last week the Monsters Inc set was announced- Mike and Sully were available in Japan from the candy set and many fakes were about on eBay but now the real deal is coming to the UK,US and Europe!

I love this film and I'm tempted to get these and break my ban! But probably only Randall, Mike, Sully and Boo!

Clintons also announced today that some of the Jungle Book set has been released online and will probably be appearing in shops soon if they haven't already. These are the ones available:

Happy collecting everyone!

Finding Dory and Little Mermaid sets released online today! 3rd June set announced!

These lot are available online now! They were released in stores last week and were launched online today. Site has been down a lot for me today so I think it's been busy!

Next month is 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'. Another miss for me!

Unfortunately due to tight budget I have had to sell a lot of my collection and stop with the new sets but I will continue to update my blog! I hope you all enjoy getting the latest news! :D

That's all from me for now- it's the height of the exam season so I don't have much time to post- I'm finished by the end of next week thank goodness!

Zootropolis, Rapunzel and Star Wars Spotted at Clintons!

Last month Zootropolis tsums appeared at Clintons with slight facial variations compared to the Disney Store ones and earlier this month, Star Wars appeared up online and I have seen them in store (forgot to take a picture though silly me!).

Here are the images from online!

These variations are only available at Clintons and maybe soon other Posh Paws stockists- these are also similar/the same to those released at Target in the US!

As a reminder, here are the Disney Store vatiations (US promo pic). ^

And the following Star Wars were released at Clintons:

I have also spotted some Rapunzel tsums at my local Clintons but they are yet to pop up online- I remember seeing Pascal, Rapunzel, Maximus and possibly Flynn but next time I'm about I'll have a look!

2 collections announced for June :D

A bit late again but I've got exams next week!

So this Tuesday in the UK and Europe the second Alice in Wonderland tsum tsum set was released (the first was in April last year) and the next two Tsum sets were announced!!

They are 'Finding Dory' (really debating whether to get this as I love the look of the film and went to see Nemo when it came out 13 years ago!) and 'The Little Mermaid' which includes 4 tsums: Ariel in her Pink Dress, Sebastian with a rather cheesy grin, a winking Flounder and a laughing Scuttle, all enclosed in a Flounder bag. I have very little room in my storage now (and I've just gone and got a medium Cheshire Cat-oops!! xD) so I won't be getting the Flounder bag, much to my dismay because the Little mermaid is my favourite film! This set isn't yet announced for the US and I haven't seen it before so I'm not sure if it's been released in Japan yet!

This time Disney UK is taking a different approach, releasing in store first, then online a week later.
Here are the promos!

Looking at the US site, it looks like small,medium and large Dory and also a medium Nemo will be released!

Until next time folks!

3rd May Collection announced! Alice in Wonderland in the UK and Europe, Finding Dory in the US.

I'm very late again! Exam season is really looming now so I apologise.

So the next tsum tsum collection for the UK and Europe will be the Alice and Wonderland collection!
As Alice Through the Looking Glass is out May 27th here, I'm surprised the tsums don't have that Tim Burton look actually (although I don't think he's directed this film)!

The US will be getting the 'Finding Dory' set instead, as the film releases June 17th in the US and July 29th here in the UK (summer holiday timing). I'm betting the UK will get this set June or July and I'm excited for it! So, we'll have to see when the US gets our Alice Set.

US promo picture.

Hope that sorts any confusion you may have about what's being released where!

2nd May Collection announced!

I'm several days late again but exam season is coming round so apologies!

Just a brief post, on the release of The Jungle Book set the next upcoming collection was announced Marvel's Avengers Series 2 apparently!

My bank is safe for another few weeks!

And don't forget Bobba Fett releases the following day (I assume for Star Wars day- May the 4th be with you and all that!)

I'll be back for a mid May collection update next tsum tsum Tuesday! :D

2nd April and 1st May Collection Announced!

Well Tsums have come out by storm today! Today's release sees Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace collection and two collections have been announced for the next few weeks.

It seems the rumours floating about The Jungle Book Collection were true, and it makes sense as Disney are releasing the remake of the film later this month. The film is out April 15th and the Tsums come out the following week.

I'm a little disappointed with May's release- I wonder if anything will be announced in the meantime? Star Wars fans behold!

That's all for now- have a great TTT and happy collecting!

1st April Collection announced!

Hi all! Sorry I'm a bit late off the mark but Disney has announced the next tsum tsum collection for the first half of April to be 'Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace'. As you will know by now I'm not really a Star Wars fan but I can tell these'll be popular by the way the last set flew off the shelves and has joined the elusives. Although it kinda sucks that by saying it's from episode one, how many other collections will they be doing? I'm still waiting for something like a 'Beauty and the Beast' or 'Jungle Book' release as these are popular films (and the Jungle Book 'remake' will be released later this year).

Here's next month's set:

I have no idea of any of the characters' names but once they go up on the site I will be sure to update my list of releases. I'm also in Spain for a week from next Sunday so if any news comes about I won't be able to post unfortunately. Luckily I will be home for this release so I can see what the next release will be!

That's all for now, happy collecting! :D
