Anime Weekend Atlanta 2010 Swag Post!

BEHOLD! I have returned! My wallet is bone dry and my credit card has a slight dent on it. But we are home safe, happy, and slightly tired. A successful weekend it was.

As it is the easiest post to put up here is my swag post. XD Some of the pictures were taken at the hotel so they came out a little blurry. Because that is code for I FAIL. But yes.....a lot of pictures are coming your way because I am a greedy pig. But since I saved for a year and this is the last shopping spree before Japan it's okay. Or at least that is what I told my mom as I unpacked all my stuff.

So here is my greedy post of Tenchi Swag. Then I will do my overall AWA 2010 post. Then it will be Uragiri wa Boku no Namae wo Shitte Iru and K-On!! time. Also there was talk about going to see the movie DeVil tomorrow so who knows what is going to happen. Busy times probably.

ANYWAY on to the greediness.

Edited for the large picture. Two shirts and 1 keychain are missing from the pic.

First stop on our trip was to the Sanrio Store in the Discover Mills Mall. A bit out of the way but since my mall sucks and has no Sanrio Store it was worth it. The mug was worth it this weekend! The notebook was my lame prize on the spin the wheel thing.

CLAMP kiseki?!? All for me?! Savings galore over here. Priced 20-30 dollars I got these babies for 8 dollars each. Now I have every single one except volume one. A very happy Tenchi indeed.


Photobucket

I wonder which one was my favorite.....


Photobucket

Time for clothes! See mom, sensible purchases.


Photobucket

I scared the poor people at NG Things/Modondi. I emailed them asking why they weren't going to be at AWA. Because reading is hard people. But I made up for it with my lovely purchases yes? Yay for new clothes.


Photobucket

XO If anyone has been keeping up with my blog at all they know this was item number one for this convention. MUGI! All for me! She is too awesome for words so she will get her own post later. The precious....


Photobucket

More nendoroids for me? Yes indeed. Got some Fate/Stay Night and the last Lucky Star Comptique version. Yay for Konata!


Photobucket

Mangas batch one. Just for the record I think I have bought 5 mangas the entire 12 months in between AWA 2009 and AWA 2010. So...keep that in mind when you see the grand total.


Photobucket

First batch of lovely fan art. I sorta have a thing for Eevee forms.


Photobucket

STICKERS!!! And jewelry. BUT STICKERS!!!!


Photobucket

Technically we bought the supplies for the plushie making panel? So yeah. Final products people. We rock. Only took us 2.5 hours to complete each plushie.


Photobucket

Second batch of Artist Alley stickers. I has an addiction.


Photobucket

Second batch of Artist Alley prints and such. I have no idea where I am going to put this all but I needed to have them!


Photobucket

So much K-On!! stuff and so little money. But I loved her the most after the Nendoroid so I had to get her.


Photobucket

Random purchases made Saturday. That poster is huge and still all rolled but. I will try to remember to take a picture when it is not so wrinkly. Oh and do I see Street Fighter nendorids. XD Cheapest set in the entire dealer's room!


Photobucket

Here is my sad unfinished bee from the second plushie making panel. It is green so you suck camera. Will finish the bee as soon as possible!


Photobucket

Random purchases made on Sunday. Money was running low but I needed that Dragonite Plushie for some reason.


Photobucket

This is where the rest of my money (and the hit on the credit card) went to on Sunday. Yeah people. Please note all manga purchased was 50 percent off. So it isn't AS BAD as it looks. Just sorta bad.


Photobucket

55 mangas people. Yeah. But not one bought at full price. Fail dealers charging full price all weekend or only going as low as 20 percent. So I probably would have bought MORE had the newer manga been 50 percent off but I guess 55 will have to do for now. XD So...behold like 1/3rd of my money.

I believe that is about it. Or at least I hope so. XD my friend suggested that I take a picture of EVERYTHING I bought but that might take a while. I will try to include it later.

All of that took about a year to save up to buy. I don't have an exact figure but I do know that it is over 800 dollars worth of merchandise. But I am happy. Or will remember my happiness when I am eating turkey sandwiches from now until my Japan trip.

I think I paid mostly reasonable prices on my purchases and got great deals on a lot of it. Now the real question is....where is this all going to go?! X_X

Photobucket

Maybe I should have done it on the bed...


Photobucket

Side A: Stuff upon stuff!


Photobucket

I'm a sticker/manga fool!

you have returned to sad news. uraboku ended and the ending was anti-climatic and bad (though sweet). did i mention it was incredibly unfulfilling yuki/luka wise :( :(

Anonymous- This does not bode well for a season two does it? :(

i don't think there will be season two, but they wrote the ending as if there would be. that's part of why the ending is so disappointing. nothing was resolved. nothing was tied together. it's up to the manga to reveal what happens (and has happened) between them.

NG Things/Modondi.?
where is that how can i buy T-shirts like that?

Christina said...

kittyfo- Here is their website.

http://www.modondi.com/

They sell a lot of fitted shirts which I personally think look a lot better than the standard T-shirt you find at most conventions. Also the free shipping and the deal of the week is nice too. XD I bought the Bon Bon Girl - Flowers and Bon Bon Girl - Dragonflies at AWA 2009 and these shirts are in excellent condition despite countless washings and dryings.
