- Toy Hunting -

// Took my last final exam of the quarter and I'm free!!

Yesterday (12/12/2025) was the last day of my fall quarter. So to celebrate surviving yet another quarter of college I went toy hunting and had sushi for dinner 🍣 I've been counting down the days until winter quarter since the beginning of the week... having a final every day really drags, it was hard finding motivation to study. But alas, I made it through!

// First Stop: Walmart

If you've seen my previous blog post on the miserable week my laptop broke, this should be a very familiar routine. I've returned to this Walmart yet again, for what is probably the fifth time. And this time I finally found what I was looking for!!

My first Blokees spotted in the wild! Last time I was here, I saw someone holding a blokees box but I couldn't find it on the shelf so I genuinely thought I was tweaking out. Turns out they do exist. As much as I would love to own a Blokees figure some day, I will NOT be buying because BLIND BOXES ARE MY ENEMIES!!!! As a single-character collector, blind boxes suuuuuuck! If there's only like 1 or 2 characters I want out of a line up of 10+ characters, there's no way I'm getting the ones I want lmao my luck sucks anyway let alone the odds. I would much rather pay double the price to buy the exact character I want off ebay. On that note, Cyberworld foam bag clips are starting to show up at retail now. Can someone please buy them and start reselling them on ebay I need Megabull and Pupu so bad (might make a Cyberworld megop itabag?). Speaking of Cyberworld...

I FINALLY FOUND CYBERWORLD PUPU!!!!

I've been looking for him for about a month now and finally he showed up <33333 The last time I was at this Walmart they restocked all the Cyberworld stuff but no Optimus so it was just Bad Luck on my part :') It's really funny how when I was looking for Megatron, every store I went to had Optimus but not him, but then the reversed happened when I started to look for Optimus lol.

There were some other cool finds at this Walmart too:

Bumblebee and ROTB Wheeljack :3 I have no idea if these are the right vehicles and I can't be bothered to check lol. There's also a cute USPS truck tucked in the back. The ROTB Optimus alt mode die-cast model looks really cool, albeit a bit pricey.
As always, this Walmart is oddly stocked and perhaps the most well-stocked Walmart I've ever been too. They usually have more variety than this, so I find it funny how it's just filled to the brim with TFOne Bumblebee and Devastation OP this time lol. Right when I was about to leave I spotted this... cursed funko pop looking thing. "Bitty Pop! Bitty Bot Soundwave with Rumble" and it looks absolutely horrifying. Why is Rumble piloting Soundwave's corpse 😭

// Second Stop: Target

Guess who walked to the Target again 🤩 A part of me was hoping I hadn't found Pupu at the Walmart, so then I'd get to keep the thrill of the hunt going. Well, turns out Target doesn't have him, so I'm glad I went to the Walmart first lol.

The Lambo twins were reunited at this Target can we get a "Yeah!" in the chat. And Cyberworld Cyber Changers class were on sale! At first I thought the EarthSpark 1-step changers were also on sale and was a little tempted to grab Twitch, but turns out that's not the case. I was a little bit tempted to get the CBW toys but then I reminded myself I need to be a man of principle ☝️ I'm a single character (+1) collector (Meg/OP only) and I shall hold myself to such standard. Not tryna build a CBW shelf here I don't got that kinda money on me :P
Wow look it's me... Is this an instagram-worthy bathroom selfie? /j This is one of my favorite outfits + itabag combo at the moment <3 Peep the matrix of leadership collar pin and megop nui in the bag B)
- Kura Sushi -

Oh my gosh I've been WAITING to eat at this specific Kura Sushi place for 3 months now!! It happens to be within walking distance from the Target which worked out nicely. The evening that I moved into my dorm, me and my mom was gonna go eat at Kura sushi but the wait time was insane (and we couldn't even find a place to park lol it was THAT busy). Ever since then I've been thinking about eating at this place, and today proves to be the perfect opportunity. God I love Kura Sushi it's so awesome. I really like the concept of a revolving sushi bar and their execution is *chef's kiss*. #Not a sponsored post I just really like sushi and this specific sushi chain.

I tried to take some aesthetic food photos <3 I'm no longer an oshikatsu poser I have pretty photos of my oshi and food too!!

This was some GOOD sushi man. I've been looking forward to this the entire week and it lived up to the hype.

- Unboxing TF Merch -
CBW megop has finally reunited yay <3 This is all I've wanted out of these toys. OP sitting on Megabull. I'm content.

// Unboxing Time!!

If you remember from this blog post, I talked about buying some Transformers merch off Etsy. Well since then I've bought another sticker sheet as well, lol. And now I get to unbox them!

Left: from AlisaAydinArt on Etsy. Right: from plushishop on Etsy.

AEJDFKSJAL IM SO HAPPY!!!!! The sticker sheet is matte vinyl and it feels like the type of stickers that you can stick and reuse which is AWESOME. Can't wait to put them on my laptop yay! (I'm planning on redoing my quarterly laptop sticker layout soon.) The charm texture is unlike any charms I've seen. Genuinely looks like gummy candy coated in sugar. Yum. I didn't expect the design to be printed on top, but it feels pretty scratch resistant so it should be ok. It's a little big for a phone charm but I'm putting it on my phone case anyway :P I'm temporarily putting the button on my pencil pouch but it might stay there lowkey. And the ribbon. Oh the ribbon. It's my favorite out of the bunch I love the design sm. Tatakawanai!TF my beloved. The last letter is a bit cut-off but misprints happen and I'm not that bothered by it. Might buy another one when the shop reopens because I kinda wanna cut off the adhesive part, so it'd be nice to have a backup just in case I mess up.
