I found the manga so thrilling so when I learned that an artbook was released, I had to buy it and it certainly didn't disappoint!

It has fewer illustrations than I expected and the cover is thinner than the pages themselves, which are of sturdier stock than what you'd expect to see from a regular artbook, but all the details and colors of Kato Kotono's art makes it worth it.

Gorgeous. Can't wait for another one. <3

Ordered Anko and she looks okay (less chubbier than I imagined her to be) but some threads under her right eye have come loose while the embroidery for the left eye is pretty much perfect. But unless you inspect it closely, it's not too noticeable I suppose.

But the white torso area doesn't seem to be as "clean cut" for some reason? The bell collar seems to cut into the plush too so there's a couple of threads sticking out from underneath.

Hopefully only a few have these defects. Other than that, she's probably the glossiest Hige Manjyu I own. Her fur is so shiny and that unimpressed face is to die for. xD

Bought Mii-sama and I love him~! <3

Would have love to get the others as well since this is an interesting set but ah well.

I kinda wish his scarf was removable though but it's probably better this way. I wouldn't know how to tie it back together that nicely, lol.

Softest cushion I ever came across. Even softer and fluffier than bread, I might add.
The real thing is slightly smaller than what's pictured on the site, though, but definitely worth the purchase. I should've bought ten if I knew I was going to like it this much.

More suitable for hugging than a headrest. The material is so squishy that your head would sink right into it.

The wait was long but worth it. Definitely needed to get Mi-sama in big size with this expression in particular.

He's actually more plump than I thought he would be.

Can't wait to order from the next batch. Hopefully they'll have more variations or different characters in this size.

Instant choice when I saw this selection. Though the black patch on top of his head reminds me more of sumo wrestlers than actual onigiri. ^^;
But still very cute and squishy nonetheless. His expression is slightly different than what I expected which makes it all the better cuz I like seeing more variety even if it's only a bit.

Ordered Mocha-chan and I couldn't be happier. <3

Though it does seem that they're slightly smaller than previous standard sized Alpacasso Kids.

But I still love 'em.

This is my first Alpacasso Kids plush in Big size and I love her! She's sooo soft and actually the size she's supposed to be as opposed to more recent releases (Kirarin Star) which have shrunk for some reason.

Anyways, glad I decided to order Mint-chan right away since she sold out the day this item appeared.

My favorite part (besides how cuddly they are) is the color scheme. It reminds me of ice cream or cotton candy. The bow is very cute as well and adds to their charm.

Got my order really quick, too (less than a week), so I'm really happy! Thanks as always, TOM! ^^

That's what I always think when I see these. You just want to scoop them up with both hands and marvel at how soft and adorable and smol they are. <3

I ordered Maruko and I really can't stand how cute he (she?) is sometimes. Especially that":3" face.

I might pick up Torakichi another time if I really want to.

Hope they release the new kitties in big plush size eventually (and if possible, re-release some of the sold out ones as well?).

Ordered Hotoke and I'm quite satisfied with my purchase. His zen face is probably my most favorite feature about his character (the second being the actual bell that came with this version). I also think he might be slightly bigger than the ones from previous series but what matters is that he's cuddly and huggable. Which he is. x3

Mines had a bit of plastic jutting out under its right eye, though. At first I thought it was just his fur matted down by the packaging but upon closer look, it looked the material thin plastic bags are made of. Don't know how it got there and I was a little afraid of damaging the eye when I pulled it out. Thankfully, that didn't happe...Read moreClose

I'm so thrilled to finally get Sora-kun in BIG plush size! Though if I could, I would've ordered all of them (even Llama-san which only got a standard release this time around) cuz this set is just too cute and pretty to resist! <3

But yes, Sora-kun is just as soft and cuddly as I thought he'd be. His color seems to match closely to the shade in the prototype photos and I love how his star ribbon accessory contrasts against his sky blue fur.

Packaging was very secure and arrived within estimated delivery time (SAL option) so thank you, TOM!

Here's hoping to see more plushes soon. Long live the Alpacasso line! x3

This may be one of my favorite series from the Alpacasso line. Got Shiro-chan today and I completely adore him. Maybe it's because he's brand new but his fur seems extra shiny and glossy than the other ones I have. The snout on mine is crooked, though, and his nose and mouth sewn on at a skewed angle but I can live with that. The star ribbon accessory is cute and the colors go well with his fur. Overall, very satisfied with my purchase.

Hope to see more Alpacasso soon! :D

Perfect to nap on, imo.

I purchased this before photos were posted so I had no idea exactly how "big" everyone was saying it was. When I got the plush, I was a little disappointed that it wasn't as big as I imagined it to be but it's about the right size for that price.

The cap was a little bigger than I expected so it's loose when I wear it but it's very cute so none of that matters. A nice add to your collection if you like kitty goods/Neko Atsume merch.

How can anyone resist his adorable face?! He's so cute! And soft! And totally huggable and squishable! And that bell collar just complements his adorable rotundness! x3

Glad I was able to order at least one of the cats from the first series though I would be thrilled if these can be restocked in the future so I can have ALL of them but I'm good for now.

Shipping was fast as always so thanks, TOM! :)

Ordered Gomao and couldn't have been more pleased! I haven't noticed anything wrong with mine as far as stuffing or the seams go. The "gold plaque" on the collar could have been designed a bit better to make it look less like a cardboard add-on covered in shiny paint and it's quite obvious this is just a color variant of Kuromame from the previous series (which makes me wish I bought Kuromame so I can sit them side by side so they can both glare and be grumpy together) but other than that, I'm very happy with my choice. ^^

Shipping was incredibly fast as always and everything arrived safely so thanks again, TOM! :D

P.S. More Hige Manjyu plz. x...Read moreClose

She's really cute and I love her "XD" face. If you don't have the first Miku nendo, get this one. Or get them all cuz they're all cute!

I generally don't buy accessories for smartphones but these were too cute to pass up! Ordered the poodle and the pug and I really love them both! <3

I adore the little kitties and the little bell attached to the zipper, too, and I pretty much take it everywhere with me in my purse.

Loved the character designs as well as all the production notes for the game. Must-have if you're a Dangan Ronpa fan. :D

I chose the pink one since I thought that color looked the best and it's very nicely made but is a bit small for me (even after I took measurements before ordering) so the sleeves feel kinda tight when I wear it. Too bad I couldn't exchange it for a larger size so make sure to double check which one would best fit you.

Love the warm colors and how much less of a hassle it is compared to long scarves. Kinda wish there was a slightly bigger size one though since this one don't quite cover my shoulders but then again, it probably wouldn't be a muffler anymore.

They're so snug and cosy. Goes well with leggings. Might order more in different colors. :)

They fit really snugly and I love the yummy designs. Even my teacher complimented them, lol! :D

Saw her up for limited-time free shipping so I didn't even need to think twice about preordering.

I've always liked Patch's design even though I never played Touhou so I was really happy when GSC finally announced a nendoroid for her and was even more glad how the final product turned out. There isn't a single thing I don't love about her. The sculpt and paint job are great as are her faceplates and that adorable sitting pose. ^^

Got an email saying there was one back in stock and went to order her right away cuz she's pretty much doubled in price everywhere else after her official release.

And I love her! I wish her faceplates didn't seem so flat at times but then again, she is a doll and the other details more than make up for it like her hair (exquisite!), dress, the accessories and of course, her doll case which is very well made. No wonder why they keep saying her box is huge.

I would have preferred the color of her ribbons to be closer to the anime's version of Shinku but they did a really good job adapting the manga's design to nendoroid form so really, there's no c...Read moreClose

It runs a bit long for me but I like my cardigans lengthy anyway and I'm so happy this comes with a hood! I especially love the pearl buttons. So elegant. <3

They fit perfectly, too! I've always wanted unique socks and these were on sale so I'm glad I ordered them. ^^

I adore Rainbow-kun~! He arrived in less than a week and a month before the actual (second) release date so thank you, TOM!

Compared to the other Big Alpacassos I have, his fur seems a lot softer and fluffier which makes him extra more cuddly. Mines also doesn't seem to have much of an issue with the stuffing or standing up right so I'm quite pleased to say that he's probably the best one in my collection.

The other Alpacasso series tend to run out of stock really quickly and there's no guarantee of if or when they might be on sale again so I hope that's not the case for the Rainbow Alpacasso. If anyone's looking into starting their own Alpac...Read moreClose

She's absolutely adorable. I wasn't sure how the ribbon on her head would look since it's the same color as her fur so I thought it was going to blend in too much but the blue polka dots helped it stand out as an accessory so it's all good.

Ordered Sora-chan and I daresay he's pretty much perfect. The pink ribbon suits him very well. ^^

I ordered the last Cream-chan and though he looks a little stiff, he's nonetheless very adorable.

No noticeable bald spots in his fur, stands upright just fine and his bow is tied a little unevenly but that's a minor problem. Overall, very happy that I got him. ^^

And so soft! I really got more than what I anticipated so I'm very satisfied with this purchase. Glad I bought both versions. The colors complement each other nicely and having more plushies is always a plus. ;Db

Can't say I agree with the price. The big-sized Rainbow Alpacasso plushie is only $9 more than the standard version and much more worth the purchase.

I also don't like how the quality of this Rainbow Alpacasso is such a downgrade from the other Rainbow Alpacasso that was released earlier as part of a set. To be fair, I don't own the latter so I can't exactly compare them accurately but judging by the pictures uploaded to the site, the first Alpacasso's cuteness was more pronounced. Its bead eyes looked bigger, the snout doesn't seem as flat and the color pattern looked better with wider stripes. But I'm aware the prototype probably looks a lot dif...Read moreClose

Soft? Yes. Absolutely adorable? Yes. But $24 for the full set? Not really worth it with how small they are (even tsumtsums cost less and they're twice the size of these).

Only ordered them because I wanted to use my coupon that was about to expire and this suddenly came back in stock. I'm fine with the quality and quite happy to have all 5 tofu but the price? Not so much.

I ordered Llama-san and I'm happy to say that what I got looks a lot closer to its prototype in the photos than how it was with the Shiro-chan I got from the Girly Alpacassos set, whose head is oddly titled and face a bit uneven.

The only minor problem I have is that Llama-san's color is way off. It appears much more yellow than the lighter shade shown in the pictures. He's also not as fluffy as he's made out to be (the fur is kinda matted) and I have trouble making his ears stand up straight since they've been flattened in the packaging but pretty sure those can be fixed over time.

Shipping was quick and securely packaged as usual so thank you, TO...Read moreClose

My first Alpacasso ever and I couldn't have been more satisfied with this purchase! I wanted Shiro-chan in particular and I really liked how subtle this series was with its decorations so I bought him right away.

He's more "plump" than squishy, which was my initial impression of the Alpacasso plushes and the stuffing seems to be uneven in his cheeks (might have been due to being squished in the packaging) but other than that, he's fluffy, perfect and I love him! <3
I'm just worried if he'll easily get dirtied since his fur is white.

Also thanks a lot to TOM for arranging my items so securely and getting him shipped out so fast! Can&...Read moreClose
