Those are sooooo cute! I wonder if they intentionally packaged Kago & Tsuji separately, since they seemed to be the two most popular members it meant fans would need to purchase both sets to get them. 

 

 

Oh, no doubt.  Marketing at its finest! 

Now I need to figure out how to keep those figures standing on top of a cabinet that I open & close often.  They barely stand balanced, but they have little holes in the bottom of their feet for some sort of peg/stand.  Not sure if such a thing is sold or I'll have to somehow make one.

 

Can I just say that I think it is pathetic that the great Minimoni only has a 6-page thread on here??!!  Sure, they're no longer current or active but this forum has been around and they're such a legacy act!

 You can use Blu Tack, it's like a sticky rubber than you can use to fix (non permanent) your figures still. I use it with my Playmobil collection and it works for that use. You can easily take it away from figures and all surface (even wood or paper) and it don't let marks or sticky rests.

 

 It's selled in stationery or any any store that sells writing stuff.

^ cool idea!! Indeed I was reaching out for help by posting that, so thank you for coming to may aide. 

[Driftingthroughtheskies]

Yes blue tack works wonders. Though as it ages, it becomes weaker occasionally. When I was a kid, my mom made a bunch of paper decorations and put them in my room with blue tack. It was wonderful though some of them aged and fell off a couple years later.

I wonder why MiniMoni only has 6 pages though. It was such a great group.

[hanawopun]

^ Well considering Morning Musme's first post here was 2007 and the group is still running strong, and Minimon's time period was 2000-2004, it kind of explains it.  Most posts in this forum are about current happenings, new fans joining in and lineup changes, etc.  Mini Moni are a defunct act, pre-dating this forum so yeah.  We should keep them alive though!  I do by watching their DVDs all of the time.

 

I recently obtained a Hello!Project Kids DVD volumes 1 & 2 which are hosted my Minimoni... I never get sick of them, and they seem to be having such a fun time!  I love how cavalier they are about everything and how they let you hear some studio people laughing from the sidelines, etc.  Ai Kago is the funnies clown of them all, but I keep falling in love with Mari Yaguchi more every time I see her.  She seems like the ultimate person to hang out with.

 

[Satur]

 No doubt Yaguchi is the queen of comedy in Hello! Project.

 

 Anyway, it's always funny to see... hmmmm. I don't know... the bloopers of Telephone Ring Ring Ring? You can see specially how them hate the milk

 

 

[hanawopun]

^ That blooper clip is SO fun!! Is that from the single DVD by chance??
Yaguchi's fall at 1:50 killed me !!! LOL

This idea worked perfectly!! Thank you so much.  Now I can open my CD/DVD cabinet without them falling down!

 That is a lot of Blue Tack.   But if it works, it's fine.

 

 Don't know where the bloopers are from, I found it as is in Youtube, and welcome 3 minutes of our girls.

[hanawopun]

^ well at first I thought you meant like make full pads for them like green army men have, then I started to wonder if just a tiny, thin amount was needed so I just did something in between.  They're kind of high up actually, even though the photo was taken from above so it's not a big deal.

 

And I just ordered the Mini Moni DVD single for the telephone song figuring that segment is probably (hopefully) the 3rd behind the scenes t rack.

[hanawopun]

So I got the DVD video single for Telephone! Rin Rin Rin and yes - the blooper reel was on there!  yayyyyy 

[Satur]

 You bet and win this time.

[Knightsaber-Priss]

I have them to keep me company at work now!
 

 

That's a great collection of Minimoni merchandise you've got! Very jealous, especially of those figures they're so cute and would look great on my desk!! I'll have to have a look for some now!!

However all I've found so far are a couple of Mika plushies:

and
https://www.ebay.co....tm/111993993562

I like them but I'm not a huge plushie is fan, I think I'd prefer a set of those little models, so if anyone here is... I'm not sure how rare Mika is, I've seen a few Mari's before but never a Mika - then all of a sudden there were two!!

What is this Japan auction site that you find them on??

[hanawopun]

^ Yahoo auctions Japan.  I have to use a 3rd party service to do it though.

 

I'm willing to part with this mini set if your interested.  Pun intended.

 

[Satur]

 Do you remember this ad? Yuko lies about her size for looks better before the guy, and...

 

 

[hanawopun]

wow lol... no I certainly don't "remember" it as I've never seen it, but it's always refreshing to see Mini Moni I haven't seen before (:

 She can stop the time and looks always so fresh.

[Knightsaber-Priss]

Oh wow! Seeing Mari in that outfit again makes me so happy! If she still had the blonde hair you'd find it hard to tell if it was taken now or back then.

I wonder if she kept it or if it's been sat in storage at H!P somewhere all this time? Or is it a completely new one??

Oh and hanawopun, thanks for the offer of the models, I'm tempted but I might have to pass on it at the moment.
