But I also came across another really cute My Melody playset that's not by Tomy Takara.
The Tomy Takara Koeda-Chan My Melody Fahsionable House is interesting 'cause it seems to have many movable elements. However, it's not really a "house" house sort of playset. So I don't think I'm purchasing this yet. But it is quite cute.
Then I found the Sanrio My Melody Mushroom House... (not by Tomy Takara). And that really looked like the classic Sanrio My Melody. It was released in 2013. And it's her house! Which is very appealing for me who grew up on Sanrio. So awesome! Hehe!
And I think I can use my My Melody Re-ment collections more easily with this one than with the Tomy Takara playset. Especially with the Re-ment My Melody Winter Vacation collection. I'm excited just thinking about it. Lol! And it comes with the two figures of the Sheep and My Melody.
Here's a cute video I saw online that features this playset.
eBay vendors sell this for more than $250 though excluding shipping, even almost $300 in some places. Gah. But I found an eBay vendor who sold it for less than $200 excluding shipping, and it's shipping from the same country as where I'm at. So.... there I was, excitedly thinking of the Re-ment My Melody possibilities with this playset more than with the Tomy Takara Koeda-Chan My Melody Fashionable House playset... so I tried searching online elsewhere where it might be sold for less but no, I didn't find any other. And so I finally bit the bullet and decided to purchase the less than $200 one before it's gone. Especially when the thing costs less than the hard to find Re-ment My Melody Ouichi Cafe (costs about $250 now).
All in all it's about $200 with taxes and shipping. Grr.. But since it still costs less than the Re-ment My Melody Ouichi Cafe collection, and I can't find it anywhere for less... I just went ahead and bought it.
It should be delivered to my doorstep by June. I hope I receive it in time.
So now I've ordered about 4 Sanrio playsets that's like the Tomy Takara Koeda-Chan version.. 3 for the Little Twin Stars (actual Tomy Takara Koeda-Chan playsets) and 1 for My Melody (by Sanrio, as described above). One more similarly sized house/playset is missing and we know which character's that is. It doesn't come with the Hello Kitty figure though. Lol! We shall see! Hehe!
