Remember last month, I reviewed this shop called Helpful Manny? They made those kick ass Power Ranger shirts, and I managed to do a whole review around my Power Rangers in Space shirt. I also made a comment that I wished he sold Power Rangers Dino Thunder shirts.
WELL! It turns out that he read my blog and within a week started producing Dino Thunder shirts. As a thank you, he sent me this AMAZING yellow Dino Thunder shirt. It's just as amazing and comfortable as the last one and fits perfectly. As always, they are available in a variety of sizes (both men and womens) and a ton of colors (not just the accurate ones) and can be found HERE. He's been pretty busy and has added some other seasons as well.
I also wanted to post a few photos of the packaging. It came in a cardboard envelope along with a thank you card. I thought it was a nice touch ^-^
So if you're a Power Ranger or Super Sentai fan, go check out his store and get a morphenominal shirt!
I can't believe summer is over and September is here already! Looks like I'll have to do a "back to school" post next!
The first post for this month is going to be a product review for an etsy shop called Kutie Krafts. They are a handmade jewelry store based out of the US.
Because this was a review, she wanted to make me custom pieces. I wanted to be surprised too. I'm not fully sure how long it took her to make everything, but it wasn't very long. Maybe a week or two, which I think is amazing for the amount of items she sent me.
She kept in contact with me through the whole process and even sent me a tracking number once she shipped the items. They arrived in about 3 days. They came from Colorado and arrived to me in New Jersey.
I was amazed by how many things came out of that envelope! She sent her business card, some gift bags, a hand written note, and two packages with necklaces.
I thought the Chinese-food box was the cutest thing. Inside were all of the clay necklace charms (you can get a better view of the stuffing on my YouTube review. There were so many and they were so cute!
There were two X-Men charms, an Ibuki Mioda, and my personal favorite, Sailor Moon. All of these are so cute! The detail in Serena and Ibuki is still blowing my mind. Inside the box was also a chain to attach to the necklaces.
The plastic bag contained two plastic 8-bit necklaces (I'm not sure of their exact name, sorry!). One was the Incredible Hulk and the other was the tri-force from the Legend of Zelda
Everything she made was adorable and seems pretty sturdy for clay. All of the clay necklaces were also really smooth and had a lot of detail. You can tell she really put a lot of time in everything she made. The items on her Etsy all seemed to be really reasonably priced. She also does custom orders, so if there's a character or charm you want but can't find, I highly recommend Kutie Krafts.
Also, I thought it was really nice that she included a hand-written note. Very thoughtful. Overall, I had a great experience with Kutie Krafts and would recommend them to other jewelry lovers, both nerdy and kawaii as her store had some creepy-cute items as well!
You can also find Kutie Krafts on FaceBook and Instagram!
Thanks for checking out another awesome product review and a HUGE thanks to Kutie Krafts for all of the amazing and kawaii items<3
Hello again Killjoys!
Today's product review comes to you from Gesshoku Designs, a US based Japanese and Otaku inspired fashion company. Their site has hundreds of shirts, bags, hoodies, pants, accessories, and a ton of other items in a variety of prints, colors, and styles.
I placed my order early last week and was quickly told that Thursday that my item would be printed and shipped within the next day. By that Friday my item shipped and arrived on Monday. I was extremely happy with how quickly the items shipped and arrived.
The items came in a standard parcel package. They were wrapped in a purple tissue paper along with my order form and a coupon. I thought the stamp on my order form was adorable!
The first item is their Pixel Drop Heart shirt in hot pink. This shirt was available in various colors, cuts, as well as this print on various items of theirs. I am extremely pleased with the color and fit of the shirt. It matches the color on the site perfectly (my camera had a hard time picking up the vibrant pink) and fits well, but not too snug. They have pretty standard prices as this shirt was $17.99
The second item is their 3-Tailed Baby Kitsune Zip Tote Bag. This bag was a bit bigger than I expected, however it was my own fault since the site does list the size of the bag on the page.
In hindsight I probably would have picked out the smaller tote bag for daily use, however this bag will still get a ton of use whether it becomes a beach bag, travel bag, gym bag, or something else entirely. It's super spacious and is made with recyclable materials. The bag is pretty thick and the zipper seems pretty sturdy as well. The bag is also water resistant and was available in several colors.
And as an added bonus, Gesshoku Designs threw in these super cute pins! Maybe I'll decorate my new tote bag with them ;D
All in all, I was very pleased with Gesshoku Designs from start to finish. They had a great turnaround time, were very pleasant to speak with, and have some pretty high quality kawaii products. I would not only order from them again, but recommend them to my readers as well.
As I mentioned earlier, there is a huge variety on the site and includes everything from visual kei, lolita, yaoi/yuri, anime, gamer, gothic, and a ton of other genres of items. The also offer gift pack/bundles.
Today’s product review is on an Etsy shop called Tea Cup Castle that sells a variety of jewelry and accessories including Sailor Moon
inspired items!
It only took a few days for my items to arrive in the mail.
Inside the envelope was a mint colored envelope, and inside of that was bubble
wrap. Inside the bubble wrap, each of my items was inside of their own plastic
bag. I was really pleased with this. It ensured neither item would be damaged,
and they both look fantastic!
The first item is this Sailor Jupiter Tiara ring. The rings
are available in all of the sailor scout’s gem colors. I believe the rings are
only in one size. I think this ring is about a size 7 since I know my ring
finger is a 6 and it was loose on there. It fits nice and not tight on both my
index and middle fingers. It is also priced at only $4. It looks so nicely made. Most jewelry turns me green within a few hours due to my sensitive skin. This one took several days of nonstop wear and it was just a tint of green. Nothing a little nail polish can't fix! At least I know if I wore this for the day, I wouldn't have to worry about anything. Major plus!
The second item I’m still freaking out over because it’s so
gorgeous! But for real, HOLY CRAP THIS IS FREAKIN GORGEOUS! Moon Crystal Power! It’s Sailor Moon’s locket/brooch from Sailor Moon
R. Let me just say, how beautiful this is. Everything looks so well made and
the gems seem to be pretty sturdy.
The brooch was available in 3 different variations and was
available as a necklace, bracelet, or keychain. Any of those combinations still
added up to only $10. This necklace is well worth the money. And I know this
may not apply to everyone since everyone has a different height/body, but I was
really happy to see that the necklace comes down to wear the brooch would
normally lay.
All in all, I would highly recommend Tea Cup Castle to
anyone that likes kawaii accessories and is looking for high quality,
reasonably priced Sailor Moon accessories to help them fight the Negaverse!
I also put a video review up on my YouTube as well, so feel
free to check that out to get a better view of the items.

Today I’m doing a quick, but fun review on a little shop by
the name of Helpful Manny after all of the feedback and questions I received on
my FaceBook and Instagram after posting photos of it.
Helpful Manny specifically makes Power Ranger and Sentai
t-shirts for both men and women in a variety of seasons and colors. The shirts
are also available in a range of sizes that go up to a 5X.
The shirt that I’m reviewing today is my yellow Power Rangers in Space shirt. The shipping was rather quick. I don’t remember waiting
for more than a week for it to arrive.
I ordered a women’s size small. I tried it on immediately
and noticed how soft it is. It’s a fitted t-shirt and for a small fits really
nice. I have a hard time finding shirts since I’m so small. It’s not skin
tight, but still shows that I have a figure. I also like that the neckline
comes down a bit since I have a few fitted shirts that feel like they’re
choking me.
The quality of the shirt is also really good. It isn’t
see-through, it hasn’t ripped in the wash or come undone anywhere, and for
being under $20, I think it was a steal. From the looks of it, all of the
shirts on the site are around $19-$23 plus shipping.
Something I find really cool about Helpful Manny is that you
can get the shirts in a variety of colors. If you click on the shirt on the
site, there are options for about 10 colors, so you could even make your own
custom ranger.
I’ve noticed over the last few weeks that there are a few
more seasons added to the store including Time Force and Zeo, so here’s hoping
he adds some more! *cough Dino Thunder cough*
I would definitely recommend Helpful Manny to any of my
readers that are Power Ranger fans. My brother and friend also ordered two men's shirts, and both of them were also extremely happy with their purchases.
I wanted to show off the shirt, but I also had some fun with
taking photos for this. If you aren’t familiar with the series, there’s an
episode where Astronema switches bodies with Ashley (the yellow ranger), so I
thought it would be fun to incorporate that since I love Astronema.
I also paired this top with Lovesick skinny grey jeans and Y.R.U. black
platforms to play off of the grey uniform pants and space boots that they wear.
