You need to watch the v-blog to know who won the Hello Kitty Giveaway sponsored by Tenacious Toys! I will tell you this, two of the winners are some of my favorite buddies on Twitter. ^___^ Congratulations. The three people will be contacted by email or DM on twitter tomorrow morning, or they can DM once they see this. =D

Yay!! Thanks again Benny, you’ve made some people very happy.

p.s. I look like total shit! I’ve been under the weather lately, and the crappy weather outdoors isn’t helping. Blegh!

That’s right people– if you watched the v-blog, you’ll recall I claimed to SUCK! Well, I do because I’ve lost all sense of time and didn’t realize Valentine’s Day is already next week! So, how about we get the ball rolling with our Valentine’s Day giveaway?!!

Thanks to Benny from Tenacious Toys– we’re giving away, not one, not two– but THREE Hello Kitty plushies. Woohoo!! Hit the jump to see what you could win!!

Good something! Due to life sucking a bit the past week (the full past 7 days, not the “restart on Sundays” kind of week), I’ve been pretty dead on the interwebs. But, one must get out of their funk if their mean is to survive right? So here we are, a new v-blog with the announcement of a new giveaway sponsored by Tenacious Toys!!!

There will be a seperate post about the giveaway– but basically its a belated gift from me to you– an early Valentine’s Day opportunity and really an I’m sorry for being gone for a while. Hope you guys enjoy it! Notice how I’m not giving you details on what it is– it’s because you’re supposed to watch the video. =D

Post should be up by tomorrow.

Happy New Year!! We didn’t forget to announce the winner of the Snow Treeson giveaway. Congratulations to Gabby, I’ll be emailing you for your snail mail. As I said in the video, I am so sorry to all of the people who were not called– you don’t know how tough it was to want so many people to win, but not have enough to giveaway. Sorry!

I did want to give shout outs and thank you’s now that the year is over. I didn’t forget about people, I was caught up with baking and hanging out with family and friends. Please look for a thank you post coming up next. =D

We hit the streets and decided to hang out in Union Square. It seemed like the best location to share the good news of who won the 2nd Holiday Giveaway sponsored by DRAGATOMI! If you don’t recall, Dragatomi was kind enough to giveaway a Spiki Ninja GOD edition, limited to 100 pieces. The lucky winner was KIWICUTIES!! Congratulations. I already contacted her and will be forwarding her snail mail to Dragatomi today.

In the video I announce the upcoming giveaway! You can check it out now, because it’s hilarious– then again, I’m a dork and a total goof who is easily entertained. The Mr. did something towards the end that made me laugh. =D Remember, drop me a line, give me some critique, ideas. I’ll take it!

Again! If anyone out there is interested in joining teams/forces to give people goodies during the holidays, drop me a line.

Now that we’ve kick started the holiday giveaways, and have announced our first winner… let’s move on to our second giveaway! We want to thank Dragatomi for their very generous donation of their exclusive (seriously limited to 100 pieces!) Spiki Game Of Death created by Nakanari. I’ve had the pleasure of not only having met the two wonderful people who own and run Dragatomi, but I’ve also met Nakanari during his solo show at MyPlasticHeart.

This exclusive figure retails for $75.00!! This is your chance to get it for free!!! The figure is made out of vinyl, and measures about 8″ in height. I don’t have an image of it’s packaging, but I remember being highly impressed with it’s packaging, and it comes with an additional 2 Shuriken and a sword. I believe he has several points of articulation, and you can remove several items including his scarf. Hit the jump to get details on the giveaway!

And December is finally here!!! Woohoo! I know some people tend to focus on the time flying by, which I admit is something I’ve contemplated myself– but I’ve been anticipating the arrival of December for a while. December officially launches out Holiday Giveaway season. If you recall from last year, I guarantee to giveaway at least one cool item a week. I have taken the necessary steps to push for more freebies for you, the readers, and I hope many more shops, companies and artists jump on board, but I’ve very excited about the giveaways I have lined up so far.

The first giveaway is the Tokidoki Celebrazione Bacio bag. As stated in my video blog, one could use this bag as an oversized wallet, or even as a cheerful bag to stroll down the street with. The bag was given to me by Mr. Tokidoki himself. Sadly, I did not get it signed, but that’s mostly because I’m not a fan of getting anything other than my sketchbook tainted. I participated in my first ever press junket in February for the Tokidoki NY Shop opening, and was gifted a bag filled with tokidoki goodies along with a lookbook of the upcoming styles, most of which have already been released.

This Giveaway will close on Saturday December 5th,2009. Winner will be announced on my v-blog! Good Luck!

Yipeee!!! I think this vlogging ordeal is becoming a weekend thing for me that I am LOVING!! Then again, maybe I’m full of myself and love seeing myself on camera? This week it’s a super short video, mostly because Thanksgiving had just flown by and I forgot what I’d originally planned to say.

One of the things I forgot to say in the video was: Thank You. Over the weekend, several people clicked on my threadless link and I got a few “street team” points. Sadly, the shirt I wanted was already sold out by the time I tried to purchase it with my points. But thanks so much to all the people who clicked my link. These are broke times and I appreciate all of your help. ^_^

The other thing I wanted to repeat was the launch of the first Holiday Giveaway of 2009!!! If you were here last year, then you know I gave away one item a week– I’m aiming for more giveaways this year, but the first is a tokidoki bacio bag. See the next post for details.

Hit the jump if you don’t want to watch the 6 minute long video. Honestly, I didn’t think it would be this long. LMAO!!

It’s been a slight delay in getting the names of the winners out there, but finally, I has them! I was going to film the mimobot winner, but let’s face it, I never have time and my memory card doesn’t work on my point-and-shoot camera that I use to film– so let’s move with the program and get those winners their gifties, right?!! Check it out:

Winner: Pimpsc00by!!

I’m actually a little happy that I get to give the pimp a mimobot since she’s been trying to win one for herself over the past 46 days of mimobot giveaways on twitter. Yay!! Congratulations woman, I wish I could have it for myself, but I’m not mean like that. >___<

Winner: Oda!!

Woohoo! Oda is another participant I’m glad won a prize. He entered all the opportunities for the mimobot giveaway and walked away with nothing. =( But, I hope the rabbids above will bring some joy to your life. Yay! I’ll be emailing both winners for their snail mails, in the meantime, keep reading for the last planned giveaway of 2008.
