The Last Lion King-related thing you've bought...

[Kirauni]

Yes, I know we already have a "The Last Thing You Purchased" (http://www.leahalalela.net/showthread.php?139-The-Last-Thing-You-Purchased-Thread!)-thread. But this one is for your lion-king-related stuff only.
So what was the last thing you've bought and why?

The last thing I've bought were a coupe of German magazines with Lion King Comics in it. Yay! It's hard to find the magazines nowadays because they are out of print. But I managed to get some I missed on a second hand website.

So, what about you?

[King Simba]

I last bought this:

Simply because I think it's a nice piece and that it was too good of an opportunity not to buy it. :) (You never know how long they're gonna be available for...)

I also bought this for my mum as part of her Christmas present, but shhh, don't tell. :p

[Leorgathar]

I'm not really a TLK collector, so I can't say much here :lol: but the last TLK items I got were 2 figures that Nathalie sent me in last Secret Santa's exchange.
As for the last thing I bought, it must have been this ornament (http://cdn.s7.disneystore.com/is/image/DisneyShopping/66711?$yetidetail$) from last November when I went to see TLKoB in Manchester. I quite like it :D

[HasiraKali]

Do TLKoB tickets count? :p

[nathalie]

I got this statue, apperently it was for it's 15th anniversary, and limited to 500? It says so on the back, but I'm not 100 % sure, lol.

I'm too lazy to find the pictures on my SD card again, so I'll just link this.

[KanuTGL]

Wow, that's really cool-looking! Never seen it before =D

Last TLK item I bought was this ornament: http://www.disneystore.co.uk/the-lion-king-20th-anniversary-decoration/mp/74060/1500055/

Still waiting to receive it though ;)

[cleargreenwater]

Love that statue Nathalie, incredible item and just so awesome.

...Last thing I bought was the 20th Anniversary t-shirts that Sharifu bulk ordered for us all, it's been a very expensive year and that was probably the last time I had money!

[nathalie]

I'm also just shamelessly spamming for my own lion king collection account on Facebook :lol:

Mufasa also lights up!

Anna, I got the ornament, its just been crazy lately, and only managed to get around organizing all the orders I made last Saturday. Still need to let people know the cost and find out how much shipping to you.

[Kirauni]

Yes, tickets do count. ^^ Those are great things, Kanu, Cleargreenwater, Leorgathar, KingSimba and nathalie! :)

[HasiraKali]

There's a new make-up bag at Hot Topic. It's not on the website, but I'll add a picture of it later. It's in my room and I'm not. :p

[nathalie]

Haha, this!

[cleargreenwater]

^ The little arms hanging off the side totally kill me xD That is both cute and weird, nice find!

...Last thing I got was (yet another) hakuna matata shirt from Five Below. Between this one and the ones from Forever 21 a few months back, I think I could wear a new Hakuna Matata shirt every day of the week now! I just like that most of them work with black sweatpants and make for great weekend bumming around clothes, which totally fits.

[nathalie]

I love it, can't wait for it to arrive, haha, it's an entire Animal Friends series again, so it also has Marie, Thumper, etc ... in a ball shape

[Kirauni]

Rollin Simba? XD That's hilarious, but he looks cute.

[Keir]

I really hard to think about what the last TLK purchase I made was... Sadly enough i thought it might have been TLK2 on VHS. But then i realized that I purchased the Legacy Collection CD a couple months ago!
629

[Kirauni]

And it was definitely worth it, right? ;)

Today, I got "Le Journal de Mickey No. 2261 with a French Lion King Comic inside. Yay :D

[HasiraKali]

Nail polish! Five Below has a polish called "Hakuna Matata"! It's a pretty light, orange-toned, slightly metallic copper color. It's really pretty in person.

http://i62.tinypic.com/312e0qd.jpg

Here's what I did with it. I put little bugs! I hope they look like bugs to others. :lol:

http://i59.tinypic.com/33dbn12.jpg

[s-tlk]

Now I know why people nibbling at their nails. But the bugs are looking very tasty. ;-)

I recently bought the Simba pillow in the Disneystore. This one: http://www.jandofabrics.com/newsletters/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/AAAAC8PakloAAAAAAX6JnQ.jpg In the past I didn't like it, but once I saw it for real it is okay and the Disneystore at Oxfordstreet in London has now discounts on many items and a greater selection of TLK stuff. Some of the stuff was half the price than online.

[Leorgathar]

I just finally got my hands on the Legacy Collection CD! :D
(I just thought I would shout it out here xD)

[Nit]

:D

[Kirauni]

Wow, those are some awesome figures, Nit. But Nala and Simba with their flexible paws look really funny XD

The last TLK-Related thing I bought were probably some magazines with TLK comics inside. Yay!

[nathalie]

I got the grey shirt & PJ's from Primark last Thursday, and a beautiful "father's day" charm got in the mail a few days ago.

[Nit]

Pop! The Lion King:

Simba, Scar, Timon and Pumbaa (without Rafiki). :3

[nathalie]

This surely isn't the time for me to be spending money, but I do felt I deserved it! This thing costed me an arm and a leg, but I can't wait for it to arrive !!!

http://i58.tinypic.com/euip7t.jpg

[HasiraKali]

Cool! Where is that from?

I got a shirt on TeeFury that's Scar themed a few weeks ago.

[nathalie]

Cool! Where is that from?

Some Japanese website, but it works with contact people, so a lot of extra fees that come with it.

[nathalie]

Pluto !

[Leorgathar]

Is that... Pluto impersonating Scar for Halloween?
Lmao! This is gold :lol:

[nathalie]

Yes! Haha

There are pins of Pluto dressed as Scar, never knew this plush existed.

[HasiraKali]

I ordered that pink shirt and picked up the new sketchbook ornament from the Disney Store yesterday.

I also learned something interesting. You can order anything on their website in store and get free shipping to your home. Good to know.

[nathalie]

That's what Audra said to me this morning, haha!
We wanted the pink shirt also, but she said it wasn't available anymore.
I had a look this morning, and it was back. Then she said she's going to a store near her, where they can order it also, so you don't have to pay shipping.

[HasiraKali]

They had it in the store, but not in a size I could actually wear. I asked the CM and she offered to order it for me and said it was something new they started about a month ago. I'm going to just do that from now on when I know I'm not going over the $75 for free shipping on my own. :p

[nathalie]

The jacket/hoodie from the musical 2 weeks ago at the London theater & Pumbaa beanie with an apple in his mouth from the Disney Store in London.

[HasiraKali]

This. It arrived today and it's beautiful.

[nathalie]

I payed for them, but I don't have them yet, but Audra got them for me, haha, the mini plush set from Lion Guard at Toys 'R US

[Azerane]

Nothing, but yesterday I spent hours browsing all the lion king ebay listings and pretending to buy all the things :p

[nathalie]

Haha, I soooooo know what you mean :p

[nathalie]

I got the newest Scar t-shirt sayin "I'm surrounded by idiots" from Disneyland Paris and the 2 postcards they had aswell.
I could wear the shirt all day ... but let's not, people "may" get offended :lol:

[HasiraKali]

I haven't really picked up anything new, but I did find some weeeeeeeird stuff on Etsy. Whatever happened to the thread we had with all the "questionable" TLK things?

[nathalie]

Somehow since TLG started, I'm favoring Fuli.

I had gotten a lovely package in the mail from a pin-friend who I get pins from Paris for, and she send me a TLG blind bag (got it while she was in the US last month) and surprised me with it ^^
Guess who's inside, Fuli *yay*

(didn't technically bought it myself, but still :p )

[Littlefoot]

I saw this at a poster sale at my college and I had to have it. A friend of mine got it for me and got another one of them for himself, so technically, I didn't buy it.

[nathalie]

The newest Rafiki (in meditation position) Traditions figurine.

[Nit]

Two things actually :D
Both are The Art of The Lion King but only one of them is the actual book and the other one is Sotheby's Auction Catalog. :)
954955

[Kossu]

Ooh, those are cool Nit! I have the Sotheby's Auction Catalog too, the movie cels are really nice to look at.:D

[HasiraKali]

The last thing TLK I bought were the new light up ears from Disney Parks. I might get the other ones in December or if they go back on sale in the app. I got the light up ones and shipping for the same price as retail because they were having a sale plus my passholder discount. :lol:

[Kossu]

^ TLK light up ears? That sounds pretty cool, I'd love to see them!

I randomly found this nice T-shirt at Bershka.

[nathalie]

That's a nice shirt.

Me buying stuff is getting a little out of hand again.

Latest things I bought were Nala socks, Simba socks, backpack, toilet bag, tiny big feet plush.

[KanuTGL]

That's a really cute shirt, Kossu!

I actually bought some TLK stuff recently! I came across a pair of these figures (https://www.deviantart.com/littlerolox3/art/Lion-King-Mattel-Kiara-and-Kovu-Figures-518161350) for a steal of a price, so I couldn't help myself. I've always wanted them :lol:

[Kossu]

Oooh, those figures are really great! I want them too, haha(any Simba's Pride related figure or plush really, I have so little xD)! That's a great find, Kanu! :wow:

I got some stuff a few days ago. This little blanket that I love and some stuff for my niece.:evilgrin:
975976977

[nathalie]

Kossu how are you getting Holland / Belgium items? I thought you are from Greece?

I sent my mom out for the blanket yesterday but she didn't find it.
She said she'd go to Holland today, but haven't heard from her yet.

[nathalie]

I got a popcorn bucket yesterday from the cinema in London.

And went to Birmingham for a few hours 2 days ago, to get out of the house, and got the shiny cardboard (limited?) soundtrack (I still like the music in general from this one).
Got 4 blind bags from Disney store with a key chain in it, and a Nala water bottle.

[KanuTGL]

I picked up a random TLK notebook the other day :lol: The pages aren't blank and filled with specific things to fill in, so I'm not sure what I'm gonna use it for, but hey... :p

[nathalie]

I picked up a random TLK notebook the other day :lol: The pages aren't blank and filled with specific things to fill in, so I'm not sure what I'm gonna use it for, but hey... :p


Oooh, can you show some pictures?

[KanuTGL]

Sure, there are no more reliable private image hosting sites I know of, so I'll try attaching photos here and see if that works :cringe:

I find it interesting how centred it is around Scar anyway :lol:

979 980

[nathalie]

Oh, it's this? https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07MWC6KCQ/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_6?smid=AJDNVSIIUTKCM&psc=1

I've had that in my basket for a few weeks now, but actually never looked at the pictures that are on the page, lol.
So just always thought it was a regular plain notebook.

[KanuTGL]

That's the one. I would have preferred if it was a plain notebook, but it was half price and it's one of the very few bits of merch I've found around here, so I went for it :lol:

[Kossu]

That notebook section "That was today? I feel simply awful".:lol:


Kossu how are you getting Holland / Belgium items? I thought you are from Greece?

Nathalie, I am indeed from Greece, but my boyfriend is Dutch(and he's also a big TLK nerd, hehe). I've been travelling to the Netherlands often, since we were in a long distance relationship for quite some time...After September it's going to be a permanent move though, we're engaged now.:D I've been meaning to write something in the love life thread, it's a long story and I don't know where to start.:zazuinnocent:

[nathalie]

Ooh, congratulations! :D

Moving to Holland ... I'd say it's quite a change from Greece.
When I moved to the UK, it was definately very different then just visiting for a week every other month.

But, at least Holland has Mora snacks :D God I miss those!! :( haha

(my parents live 10 minutes from the Dutch border)

[KanuTGL]

I've been meaning to write something in the love life thread, it's a long story and I don't know where to start.:zazuinnocent:
You know we all want to hear it though! :D Congrats on getting engaged! :aww:

[nathalie]

I got this snowglobe at the Lion King show in London last night.
It's beautiful!

[cleargreenwater]

I love that snow globe, it has the elephant!

[nathalie]

It was about time they made something more special from the musical, apart from ornaments, and clothing.
The other 2 "small" globes, I have 1 of them, but if this bigger one was out first, I would have never bothered with the other one, lol.

[Kossu]

Last thing I got was a Nala keychain. Something big and difficult to lose. :p


Also, though I'm awfully late, thanks so much for the wishes Nathalie and Kanu!:)


Moving to Holland ... I'd say it's quite a change from Greece.

It's not so bad, I've lived here before for 2 years, because I was studying. And I speak dutch, which helps a lot.

I miss my friends and family of course. At least plane tickets for a trip to Athens don't cost much nowadays and it's only a 3 hour flight. Not that I'm crazy about flying, but it could have been a lot worse.:thinks:

(As for the Mora snacks...I like their loempias.:lol:)

[nathalie]

Eww, no loempia's, haha, I don't eat veggies :p

kipcorn, saté, bitterballen, vleeskroket mmmmmm, haha.
I miss going to the snackbar, decent fries, it's all non-exhistent in the UK, lol.

Even though I'm not from NL, Mora is very famous in Belgium too.

I'll be going home for 1,5 weeks in december. I can't wait!
I just miss all the foods so much, food in the UK is ... blend and boring, and greasy.
No offense UK people, but since you're all used to it, I guess :p haha

[nathalie]

I sold some Lion King items I didn't want anymore in the past few weeks, so I could get some things that I did wanted.

Amongst those new items are the Simba & Nala big feet plush (OMG SO CUTE !!!) who are residing at Sharifu's at the moment.

And these 2 plush bags from Disneyland Paris.
I was there in 2004, when all this "jungle heroes" merch came out (when Legend of The Lion King show came to the park), I have some merch from it, and have been looking ever since mid-2000's for these 2 plush bags.
