Hello all!
So yesterday, I had the fortune to attend a sci-fi/anime/comic book convention. Typically at these things they have a lot of merchandise for such categories in this GIANT room. And while I was walking through said giant room, to my surprise there was a booth dedicated completely to pins!!!
So of course, I spent a good hour there browsing through things. Honestly, their prices weren't that bad. They had pretty much every nesting doll pin, each for $5, and man was I tempted to just pick up the whole set. Sadly, I didn't have the funds, but I did manage to pick up some really nice Tinks, as well as three of the bird HM chasers and a Queen of Hearts HM I've been looking for! Plus, a really awesome Tink lanyard for $23 total!
Also pictured is an original sketch I bought from one of my favorite artists, Karen Hallion! I hope to frame it one day, or maybe incorporate it into a pin display. There's also the card of the people pictured above so A) in case I lose their card I have it on that photo, and B) if anyone reading this is looking for the nesting dolls, they have the contact info. I asked, and they said that they didn't do online trading much, but it's worth a shot!
After I make some extra cash this summer, I might hit them up again and see if they still have those nesting dolls. :lol:
Anyways, thanks for reading and I hope you all are having a wonderful day!
