Creepy Sticker Time!

I went to Hillside Mall and there is a Candy Shop there called a Dagashiya, a traditional type of store that dates back to the Meiji age. (That link links to the top ten Dagishiya including a cool one in Sendai's S-Pal.) I didn't get any sweets yet I did score some awesome spooky stickers.

There are several doubles, so I shall give them away in a contest!

Each of them has the phrase カードネムリ (Card nemuri) written upon them. Nemuri means smoke, so maybe these were originally Tobacco cards. I dunno.

 

 

 

 

 

This is what the obverse of the card looks like. That red streak in the middle is a strip of glue so you can attach it somewhere.

Gee, there are only 15 different ones, that means there are many duplicates since I bought a book of fifty. If anyone would like one, let me know in the comments and I'll send you a little care package with a sticker and one or two (or three) other goodies within.

Sticking to a creepy theme, I discovered a Gatcha machine with Minion Monsters within.

I only wanted the Creature yet after several tries, I was unsuccessful. I finally got one and completed a set in the interim.

I noticed that they have crept into the grocery store as well. I didn't pick up any snacks of theirs yet, I may do so later.

Today's Kemono Friend is a canine cryptid called イヌガミギョウブ  or Inugami Gyoubu.

I'm not sure why it says "808" on her flask so I'm going to pretend that it says "BOB" and is thus related to the Minions above.

While at the Hillside Mall, which coincidentally is located on the side of a hill, I took a photo of the surroundings. (You may want to click upon the pic to embiggen it.)

There is a toy store there that sells stuff really cheaply and they just happened to have some new Funko Mystery Minis. I bought several Justice League and a few Star Wars ones but they also had Dr. Seuss and Coco.

Yay, I got Horton!
(Of course, I checked the weight of all the boxes and chose the heaviest one but don't tell anyone.)

I was worried that I might not get a skeletonized character but fortunately I snagged Bony-Coco.

For a buck, I took a chance at a Pint-Sized Heroes set of Snow White. I wanted to get a villain and not a Dopey Dopey, and Woohoo!, I scored the Queen as crone.

A pretty good trip after all!

If you're ready for bed, you may want to put yourself to sleep reading a new book such as those found at Spooky Kidlit. Good night!

ps. Don't forget to comment on the stickers and I'll send you one of your favourite!
