Your List of H!P / Related Goods That You Bought This Year! ~'24 version~

[erilaz]

I haven't used DHL with CDJapan. I just stick to insured SAL, which works well enough for me. If I needed something faster, I'd go with EMS, which is what I use for HMV orders. Unless they deliver while I'm at home on Saturday (or before I leave for work on weekdays), I always end up going to the post office to pick up my orders, but it's only a few blocks from home.

My loot arrived today as I requested.


And since I couldn’t leave them unopened.


Regular A is with my CDJapan order, which won’t be shipped until the week of October 18th.

H!P: Morning Musume｡’17 – Jamashinaide Here We Go! (limited edition SP with DVD & bonus postcard)



Non-H!P: The Idol Formerly Known As LADYBABY - Pinky! Pinky! (limited edition with DVD & bonus Neowing photo)

[Denki]

My CDJapan order shipped so late, but it finally arrived.

General loot.


H!P related with trading cards. (I finally got my oshimen. )

A big load of second-hand Japanese CDs came through at work recently, so I was able to pick up a bunch of stuff really cheap, including several old H!P singles (mostly first press with extras, some still sealed, all with original stickers on the shrink-wrap) and Tsunku's A Hard Day's Night, Take 1 (first press), and Type 2.

I got my box of Yafuoku stuff from From Japan today. Here are the H!P and H!P-adjacent items:



* Warner Music Japan shikishi, autographed by Heike Michiyo.
* Shibata Ayumi's hard-to-find YOU & I photobook and CD single.
* "Kiss of the world" CD single by pro wrestler idol group Kiss no Sekai, supervised by Tsunku and produced by Makoto.

And here are a few of the non-H!P things I got:



* JA-DŌ and Uzai Kyokushū CDs by Metamo.
Who? Metamo (1999-2002) started out as a sub-group of Checkicco.
Who? Checkicco (1998-99) was Akimoto Yasushi's first attempt to create "an Onyanko Club for the Heisei Era," but for some reason the group failed. When he tried again, the result was AKB48.




* "Kaibutsu-kun Ondo" EP (1968).
This is the record that launched my interest in the Japanese language and Japanese music. My dad was in the Navy and brought it back from Japan for me, shortly before my fourth birthday. I still have that record, so why did I buy another copy? Decades ago, the manga and lyric foldout became detached and my mom threw it away. So I've been searching for years for a copy that still has that extra piece of paper....

Today's loot.

I just need PPU so that I'll have a copy of every MM single since 9ki joined.

But the main item was obviously the 15th album and the clear file.
(Sorry for being that one person who didn't like the black outfits version...)
