Surprise Mail : The Party Time

Just got back from my work trip in Maui and came home to a very pleasant surprise… SO. MUCH. MAIL! :joy::package:

And guess what? Yep… they’re ALL DIY miniature kits. Eight of them! Hahaha! :rofl:

At this point, is this still called a hobby… or are we ready to call it an addiction? :joy::face_with_peeking_eye:

But the biggest surprise—and the one that made me happiest—was my winning prize from Rolife! :tada::purple_heart: I received The Party Time, a discontinued kit that I’ve never seen before. That makes it even more special to me because it’s no longer available on the market. A discontinued miniature? PRICELESS! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::sparkles:

For now, all these beauties are going into my stash. Because let’s be realistic… I only have two hands and only so many hours in a day! :joy: Between work, life, and everything else, I’ll get to them one kit at a time.

Besides, I need to keep working so I can buy MORE kits! :rofl::money_with_wings::package:

I missed you guys here! :heart: Sorry I haven’t been posting much lately—work has been keeping me super busy.

But you know the cycle…

Work = Money → Money = Miniature Kits → Miniature Kits = Happiness → Happiness = More Kits → Repeat! :joy::joy::joy:

And apparently… the cycle is UNENDING! :rofl:

Aloha, crafters! :hibiscus::orange_heart:
Now excuse me while I go stare at my new stash. :eyes::package::joy:

thank you so much! Such a lucky and nice surprise!

This is a Rolife 9th Anniversary Giveaway on their IG account. They gave away 9 discontinued kit to 9 lucky winners and I was lucky enough to win. I have 3 of the other winning kits and was praying to get this one as this is randomly sent to the winners. I believe they are no longer available in the market and you will only be able to buy them at the marketplace or other 3rd party seller like vinted.

I order this on a online market shop in Norway. I was just lucky to find it. Because usually there are not a big market for Rolife in my country.

Wow nice that you have an access to other vendors as well. Currently, Robotime doesn’t ship to Hawaii so my next bet to get kits is either from Amazon or Ebay.

They don’t ship to Norway either. We only have one shop I know where they sell Robotime and gets new models, but its a small selection. So its that shop, AliExpress, online market or i I visit small craft shops whenever I see one. I was so lucky to visit at tiny craft shop in a small town in Norway in summer where they sold two old models. 69 dollars each :sweat_smile: But she said that they had them for a long time. But I was so happy! I made a post about it!

Hahaha! It am always surprised when I see kits at the local store here as well but the prices though, soooo expensive that’s why I am just shopping at Amazon. I have a lot in the cart and was waiting for a good deal as prices sometimes change and would be nice to get them for at least 20% off.
