Craploads of stuff from YesAsia

uiscerosOkay! I got one more package from YesAsia today (though again, not the one I was expecting). This one was the first Big Bang single, and FINALLY my Jolin Butterfly CD (with the cushion!)
So anyway, as always, picspam! WARNINGS! LOTS OF (relatively) LARGE PICTURES.
First though, I did take a couple pictures of the TOKIO album I got. You know, as compared to Taiwanese and Korean albums, Japanese albums kinda suck in the packaging department...
But hey, at least the cover art is pretty!
Back. And the album itself is good (I haven't listened to it all yet, but the parts I have listened to I love)!
A ton of pictures from the Big Bang 1st Single. They were such babies!!
The packaging is a lot like the Vol. 1 Since 2007 album. Plastic case with a foam-ey booklet. Except it's clear. GD and YB (back when he had cornrows!) are superimposed on the cover.
TOP, Dae, and Baby are on the back. Along with a tracklist.
The case opened. The CD is pretty, but not as pretty as usual. I chalk it up to this being the first album of theirs ever. It's still AMAZING packaging. Foam covered booklet on the right. The "hologram" was GD this time, looking sexily pained.
This was the cool part of the album; the booklet contained the normal lyrics/thank you, but ALSO had little mini bios for the guys. This one is obvs TOP's. It gives a number (to identify them, I guess. You'll see in a later picture), their name, position, their Korean name, and date of birth. On the left is the DVD that came with the album. It contains, I believe, the original Big Bang Documentary series (all 10 episodes), which is AWESOME. I've only watched 20 minutes of the first episode since it's all in Korean (and thus I understand only when they say "I'm sorry", and "thank you")... I'm watching for the pretty.
GD and YB's bio/pic pages. I like how YB has a pierced eyebrow!
Dae's bio/pic. Also, a group back-shot with the members with their numbers on them. To identify their backs... apparently. I can see GD's underwear!
Even though Baby is #1, I discovered his last. It was behind the DVD.
Group shot. There's a perforation going right down the middle of YB. The pages are weirdly perforated...
This is a screenshot from the menu screen of the DVD. I took it because wow does Baby look WEIRD. Also, the documentary showed the 6th member of Big Bang, SO-1 (no longer a member, he was eliminated, sadly. He was CUTE)
And my long awaited Jolin Butterfly CD! I was so excited to get it. It came in this big box, and I just LOVE Asian CDs! NICE packaging, Hong Kong/Taiwan (it's the Hong Kong version of the CD). I just found out that YesAsia now have a version exactly like mine, except WITH A POSTER. Way to gip me, record companies. Not that I have any place to put another poster. My Big Bang ones are currently dominating my walls.
This is the cover of the box the set came in. The CD cover + the CD jacket-case thing are the same. She's so pretty, and I love her dress!
The back of the box. Again, this was the back to the CD and CD jacket-case.
MOUSEPAD! I'm SO using this at work. I love the colors (though I do wish they had designed the mousepad/etc like the CD case. I love the design, but I wish it actually had Jolin on it).
This is the notepad. It's ADORABLE and I love it a TON. It's about the size of a post-it pad ( a little bigger). The pages are the same design, but faded for easy writing/understanding. I write a LOT of notes in my life, so I really love and appreciate this.
THE CUSHION!! I knew it was going to be inflatable, but I wouldn't call it a cushion. It's like, small pillow size. I had some issues blowing it up (mostly because I have a crappy lung capacity, and am an idiot who forgot that you have to squeeze the value to blow it up), but now that it IS blown up, I love it tons. It's weirdly comfy, despite being plastic.
The CD, booklet, and case. The case has "Jolin" written repeatedly all over it. It's adorably, girly, and perfect.
Inside of the booklet! Each page had lyrics, and a photo of Jolin. I didn't take photos of them all. I took this one 'cus it was easiest, directly in the middle. The lyrics are for "Real Man". That dress is interesting...
I LOOOVE this picture of Jolin. She looks gorgeous. Normally I don't like blue contacts on Asians (brown eyes = AWESOME), especially since Umeda from Hana Kimi creeped the shit out of me with his. But they work on Jolin. I have a feeling anything works on her.
Yay! Finished! I'm still expecting my Big Bang Hot Issue mini, and my Two-Sided Fahrenheit album. Hopefully tomorrow or Saturday...
I also will be placing another order sometime. Several more Big Bang albums (though the 3rd single is out of stock. Which is actually the only one I don't already have downloaded. WHAT SHALL I DO?!), and maybe some other stuff...
