HOOTHOOT & NOCTOWL ✦ OTHER
*GRAIL*
SHINY JOHTO PIN Source: Yahoo!Japan This beauty is originally from a rare Johto pin set, which has Ash's Pokemon I think? I've only once seen the whole set and already forgot which Pokemon it had in it. I actually found this particular pin by accident on Y!J and won it for the starting price, which was like less than 400 yen, so a very nice price for such rare item. Rarity: Veeeery rare |
PC JOHTO DEX CHARMS
PC NATIONAL DEX CHARMS Source: Y!J and Sunyshore I'm kind of disappointed that they used the same poses for both charm sets but then again, they did this to like all of the ones that were released in the Johto series? They are still very beautiful and these are my very favorite charms ever made. Rarity: Rare (Johto)/uncommon (National) |
SEARCH FOR RED GYARADOS BADGE
Source: eBay I didn't even know about this pin until I searched for Pokemon pins and badges on eBay one time. I found the full set of these pins and decided to snag it and after that, haven't seen them on sale. All the merch from this promo is quite rare and I know there's atleast a handkerchief with the full art on it (and it has Hoothoot so I must have it). But as they are very rare, I don't think I'll find one soon. Rarity: Rare |
JOHTO TISSUE HOLDER
Source: Pkmncollectors Found this for an auction at Pkmncollectors so I had to bid on it, and I won for the start bid! Very nice and unique items to own, it does have Pokemon printed tissues inside but as they are still wrapped, I have no idea if there's Hoothoot or Noctowl on the tissues. Rarity: Very rare |
BANPRESTO WRIST WATCH
Source: eBay I've seen these watches in someone else's collection before and I know that there's one more with silver borders instead of the transparent brown. I wish I'd find one out of box as I'd love to use it (I have small wrists so fitting these children size watches is not a problem for me). Rarity: Rare |
COMIC STORY BOOK
Source: eBay I saw this book on Y!J once and missed out on it but gladly there was one for sale on eBay later one, so I was able to buy it. It's very thick and made out of cardboard, and has comic style stories made from anime episode screenshots. They are quite cute and easy to read as this is a childrens book. It has both the Hoothoot episode and the one where Ash gets his shiny Noctowl. Rarity: Rare |
NYC PC CHRISTMAS 2001 PLATE
Source: Pkmncollectors I remember finding the auction for this on Pkmncollectors when I still was a newbie there and won this once again for the starting bid, which was like $20. I think this plate would go for higher price nowadays. It's very pretty and I wish I had space to display it properly. Now it just has to sit in its box. Rarity: Very rare |
BANPRESTO POSTER
Source: Yahoo!Japan Found this poster by accident on Y!J when I was looking for other Noctowl items. It had very low BIN price, so I decided to snag it. It was much bigger than I thought, like a legit poster. I thought it was like a size of a big flyer or something. It has badass anime styled artwork with shiny Noctowl! Rarity: Very rare |
WEEKEND MAGAZINE POSTER
Source: eBay I saw this poster in someone else's collection years ago and thought that it seems to be so rare that I might never get one. But then one day I saw it on eBay (with the original magazine) and had it middlemanned to me. It has some info on Hoothoot and the very happy picture of one. I'm thinking about getting it framed. Rarity: Very rare |
