What I won in 2021

 Here we are agin, the annual loot post of what dedicational participations in Instagram, facebook, YouTube and whotnot social media's have gained, as well as from other contests and challenges.

And it was another year where I fell in the prizes, so it really does pay off to like and share all those thingies.

The spoils already started at the beginning of the year, as in january the 6th anniversary contest of Nutaku Games yielded a digital copy of the HuniePOP game.

April saw me win this big Red Dragon, a resin 3d print from Rise from Resin to celebrate their first 1k followers, a desing by Cursed Forge.  It arrived safely the 7th of May, though brexit did hit me on it, oh well.

On the 16th of arpil, I was picked from the comments on YouTube channel Wiggs Figs for the Weird Al Jankovic FunkoPOP.

Which unfortunatly never arrived.

My AHPC prize for completing the challenge map arrived end of april, a lovely commander painted up by Benito.

But there was another win as well near the end of april, as I won an Instagram giveaway for a Pokemon boxed set, Dendenne's Mad Party from Shining Fates range.

That box alas never arrived :-(

On the 13th of May, I got a mail from Geekster Blog, telling me I won their giveaway for a digital copy of the Alien RPG Starter set from DriveThru over on Instagram.  So the Core Book and Destroyer of Worlds expansion found their way to my digital library.

On the 28th of june, I won some nice little personalised giveaway on Instagram, held by demonwheatthins, but the goodies never came.

Beginning of july, on the 4th, I finally managed to win something on the japanese crane game apps, with a Noodle Stopper figure of Hatsune Miku in Kung-Fu attire.  Going on Ami-Ami at 980 yen, she goes between 30 to 40 euro at european retailers.  Making use of the free shipping option, she arrived the 27th.

A few weeks later, on the 15th of july, I caught another figure with this QPosket Black Jack Pinoko.  Again using free shipping, it came in the 18th of august.

On the 24th of august, I got lucky again on TokyoCatch, grabbing a Bijoid Rem figure this time.  It shipped out the XXth and arrived here the XXth of september.

 

And she arrived safe and sound the 21st of september.

 

Now, in Crane games, you have to move and shuffle the boxes until it falls between the bars, as the claws aren`t normally strong enough to hold the weight.  And then this game happened:

 

Rooooight... but heck, she's mine now.

On the 31st of August, I grabbed the first win ever on Toreba Crane Games, with this Demon Slayer figure of Gyoumei.

He bravely arrived the 14th of september in my mailbox.

The 12th of november I could add another win to the Instagram tally, being one of the 6 prize winners from OneShopTwoShop.  When it was my moment to pick a price, the Kanao from Demon Slayer was still up for grabs, so of course I went for her.

She was never mailed to me though, as I never received the payment request for the shipping...

 

On the 25th of october, I won a figure I really liked on Tokyo Catch, with this Hatsune Miku noodlestopper of her in her "Villain" incarnation.  

 

 

Shipped the 1st of november and she arrived safe and sound on the 9th.

The 26th of november, another figure was caught at TokyoCatch, this time Satoru Gojo from JuJu Kaisen.  Only to be followed a day later by Echidna from Re: Zero, that was a catchy weekend for sure!  

 

 

They got both shipped together on the 2nd of december and arrived safely the 15th of december.

 

But a few days later, november 30th, it was an absolute topday at TokyoCatch.  I did not only catch one

 

 

not two,

 

 

but THREE simmer blankets from The Quintessential Quintuplets!

 

 

That means all three available designs, being Yotsuba, Itsuki and Miku are now mine normally, to be shipped out the 19th of december, and arriving the 27th at customs, meaning they will be delivered just after the new year.

The 7th of december I won Aiolia over at another app, Claw Master, but in order to ship that one out I needed to win a second figure as well.  Or something at least, which I did with a pack of ramen noodles, as that was the cheapest and easiest in play points to get to have my figure come my way...

The items shipped out the 24th, to arrive at customs the 27th, so they will be here probably first week of january.

And yet, that was not all, because on the 24th, Veldora was caught as well over at TokyoCatch, as was his companion Gobta on the 28th!!!!

Shipped out on the 31st, I`m expecting these guys somewhere half of january to grace my collection!

 

Still the year wasn`t finished on winning stuff, as on the 27th I caught a random 2 figure Lucky Bag over at Toreba, while the 28th yielded the 4 figure Lucky Bag!  I`m curious what it will contain, though inwardly I`m hoping for either a Fate or a Quintessential Quintuplets figure.   I guess that is going to be one fun unboxing video when they arrive!

 

I had it shipped out on the 31st, so that will definitly be something for january to find out!

Think that was it?  Think again, because on the very final evening of 2021, my TokyoCatch daily free ticket yielded me a Toonize Zenitsu!!!  I`ll have him shipped out in a week or two, to combine with any possible first wins of 2022.

So that makes some nice haulage again this calendar year approximating 565 euro value!  But sadly also a few "no-shows" of won items.  Heck, not that I`ll be complaining to the organisers of the give aways, it's free stuff after all and no eurocent was lost over it.
