Lucky pack - Reveal edition

>>8825103
Is this in store only? Also does someone have that bodyline sleeves lucky pack story?

>>8825122
Yes I believe so, in the newsletter this is all that's said, so It's a safe assumption it's instore only.

Did someone took the risk with bodyline this year? Just curious, want to see more IW too

I'm thinking of doing a sweet cream house review/unboxing but I don't think anyone wants it lmao

>>8825259
I'd be interested, anon!

>>8825103
I am so mad at myself for this release. I could only buy the salopette set online when it was released in Japan, then later my boyfriend got me a JSK set from AP USA but for way too much with shipping. Turns out AP still had a few leftovers in store in Japan!

I can still probably still the salopette set right?

I have been dying to see how Twinkle Doll looks like in pics besides the advertisement, if any one has pics of it, please post. I would appreciate it.

I figured that since we're on the topic of AP luckypacks I'll post a review of my Twinkle Dolly set in black. Forgive the wrinkles, but these were taken immediately after unpacking it.

Accessories: socks are black x white OTK's that seemed to have a larger foot sections vs prior AP OTKs.

Bow: black with white scalloped lace. The bottom tails are folded and sewn to the headband. The top portion lies flat against the head and is also sewn down.

Dress: was surprisingly heavy. It featured a pretty poofy built-in petti once shooken out. It has detachable-button shoulder straps with two buttonholes of varying length. The back had shirring that when stretched out could easily accommodate a 100cm bust. The bottom ruffles were tiered. Hem lace was AP-standard embroidered lace with a cupcake pattern that matches the blouse. Only drawback was the quality of the white lace on the bodice- the vertical scalloped lace was especially cheap and scratchy feeling. Otherwise the JSK is overall pretty well constructed.

Blouse: Peter pan style collar features the same cupcake lace as the dress hem. Buttons are clear crystals that go down the front and one on each sleeve. Unlike the JSK the blouse is fixed sizing with narrow shoulders. Max size is probably a US 8.

Still trying to sell a Rozen Maiden set from my IW lucky pack. http://www.lacemarket.us/author/leigh99/ I am so disappointed I fucked up and got the wrong size, but the blouse i got seems like it will be very comfy since it's big. I don't think I'll order another lucky pack ever again, though. I would have kept things despite being big if they were the fancy classic stuff that I normally get from IW.

This is super cute! This pic in general would make such a good "Why brand is worth more than offbrand" example shot. Good material, bows and lace match the fabric, detailed lace, and cute and original buttons.

Some girl on Lolita Updates asked if anyone got faulty items in their AP LPs, what is somewhat sad but pretty funny is that she got pic related bow in her Twilight Doll LP.

AP quality control at it's finest.

Omg I regret not getting the Swimmer LP now. How much did the LP and shipping cost you? I have heard that the amount of shipping can be expensive but worth it for a LP from them since so much stuff comes in it.

>>8825481

Twinkle Dolly poster here. That's what my bow looks like except hers is upside down and not sewn flat to the headband.

>>8825485
I'm not too entirely sure specially the shipping for the Swimmer lp.
I had another lp in that order as well.
But it was $80 for the both.

>>8825485
>>8825583
Wow fuck. Sorry my grammar is terrible.
One to many drinks.

>>8825396
Good news! AP USA is doing an in store release on Saturday with some leftover packs, if you really want one.

I'm still waiting on my SS to ship out my La Pafait order with the winter accessories LP. At this rate I'll never get to use it.

>>8825374

thanks so much for this, this looks awesome, tho the white lace is a little unexpected.

Not the best picture, but I got the Axes Femme 10800 yen lucky pack. I'm pretty happy with it, but I wish I would have got the version without a coat just because shipping was insane. I got a navy striped tunic, navy coat (it didn't photo well on my bed), a tulle skirt, blue sweater top, and lap micro plush blanket.

>>8825259

Thank you based Anon. I'm really bummed out now that my SS missed out on this, I would have loved this a lot more than my whip factory LP

I really wanted a daily, everyday coord for casual fuckin around town ugh

>>8825295
>>8825644
ok kids I'm moving house at the moment so I hope the thread will still be active by then

>>8825640
Oh that is a really cute pack!
I love that turquoise/mint top.

>>8825522
Can you post a picture, anon? The lucky pack quality is always questionable, but that's just awful.

>>8825463
Man my swimmer LP is 1:1 to yours. Was yours also from CT? It'd be interesting if the Swimmer LPs are packed according to store.

>>8825720
Hahah thats funny.
I'm not entirely sure though. I ordered it through tenshi and I forget where she is.

I've never gotten lucky packs in the past, but I've noticed most stores packs are super similar if not the same. Even though they are supposed to sort of blind packs?
But I really don't know what I'm talking about.

>>8825646
How much was it? It looks so cute.

>>8825798
Honestly, it's pretty expensive unless you're in Japan. I want to say the lp is like 4,000, and then my shipping was like 3500 plus SS fees. Honestly, I don't buy it for the great deal but just the novelty of getting one.

gonna post my Lolita Desu Medium Lucky Pack (the permanent one, not the new limited). they made a mistake on the sizing of the bolero (far too big), so as a compensation I got a smaller pack of the same value as the bolero

I think I only noticed because I watched a fuckload of opening videos on youtube before I got mine. I thought it'd be more randomized but I swear ours are identical down to the clear folder and the silly giftbag where you'd think there'd be the most variation.

>>8825943
do you think it was worth the cost?

>>8825611
tfw eurofag (not the OP tho, I hope she gets it!)

does anyone know/have they announced when the IW packs are happening and how much they usually are (inc. an approximate for shipping would be amazing)? my tiny classic wardrobe needs it. (also, don't want to be the newfag everyone hates, but what SS/forwarder would you recommend for it?)

This makes me really, really wish I had gotten a pack. I missed all of Lucky Pack season when I was actually in Japan because I was with my boyfriend, who wasn't into this sort of thing at all.

>>8825943
This looks kind of disappointing compared to some of the others I've seen, but maybe it's just the size of the pack/what you requested that's making the difference.

>>8826080
I think so. They really did their best, though I'm quite picky. I'm selling half of it, 2 items because they are too big and one because I'm not quite fond of the lace

>>8826342
you need a new boyfriend anon

>>8826386
Don't worry, he dumped me not that long ago.
Maybe I dodged a bullet there.

Did anyone get an Amavel pack?

Soooooo I'm like 90% certain I was sent two lucky packs??? I ordered a cheap one from baby SF for AatP, but in the actual pack I received not only n Alice jsk and blouse and 2 kcs, but also two baby jsks and a blouse. Is this normal? I'm not complaining, believe me, but I wanted to double check in case I order one next year and get disappointed.

>>8826343
Are you selling that top thing (bustier?)? If so, what size is it? It sucks your selling half of it though, I bought a lucky pack 4 years ago from AP and sold everything. I thought I would like the items, but when I got it it was a whole new story.

>>8826466
Whaaaat
When I got a 180$ i think one from the cherry blossom festival last year it came with a jsk, cardigan, and tights

Show me your goods

Is anyone else gonna get an Innocent World Oddments pack for the spring? Have you ever bought one before? Was it the b or a pack? Was it worth it to you?

Also, wondering how spring vs. fall packs compare.

>>8825374
And now I want this JSK so badly. How long do you think until they hit the secondhand sales?

>>8826804
I'm definitely going for it. I need more blouses in my wardrobe, and hopefully I'll get more solid pieces.

>>8827070
not to be dress thirsty, but would you consider selling Strawberry field? If you ever do, please keep me in mind!

So much regret for not buying this years LP. Damnit.

>tfw I got the btssb LP
>saw the AP after getting the baby one
>regret

I love the btssb one since it's so comfy to wear but I really do want the special set jsk for AP's Whip Factory in sax. Does anyone know the max measurements for it? For anyone who owns it, do you believe it can go up to or a little bit higher than 100~103ish cm bust?

>>8827148
the print on the pants might be El Dorado.

did they offer this in men's size?

>>8825259

I love watching lolita youtubers so I'd love it anon!

>>8827284
yup that's them, ty anon! And not that I know of, it fits me pretty snug and I wear a size small usually

>>8827145
I'm sorry anon! I sold it a while ago. I'm sure more will be popping up soon though!

Since China's about to celebrate their new year in a few weeks now, does anyone know any taobao brands doing lucky packs? BoBon21 did theirs last year, which is why I'm wondering.

And here's pack B size L.
I'm thinking of trading a lot of the items, or selling. But I'll keep some of the blouses and JSKs, maybe a few accessories. I won't know till I'll get home and that'll happen 2, maybe 3 months from now.

Hopefully I get my AATP LP in the next week, NYC sent me my shipping info so I'm excited.

>>8827146
I love the dress on the right? What is it called please?

>>8827718
Did you get the suiseiseki head dress? If so, I'll buy it off you?

>>8827774
Honestly, I don't know. And I won't find out for another 2-3 months. But if you want, you can leave me your email and I'll let you know once Ifind out.

Also, if anyone recognizes the sax/mint jsk in the middle of >>8827718 I'd love to know what it is

>>8827154
march/april

>>8827769
post pics and review please! is it worth ordering locally versus through the main site?

man I'm kinda sad I didn't get a LP this year. I was interested in the baby one but I didn't feel like staying up and it was really hard to get anyway. Then the meta one was a pain in the ass too weirdly enough. There's not a whole lot of other ones I am interested in.

maybe I'll try for a summer LP instead?

>>8825482
Thankyou so much for posting! I really wanted one and I wish I got one, but this year I needed to buy myself a new durable purse rather than a swimmer lucky pack. But thankyou so much, it's so nice to be able to see all the gorgeous things, I love swimmer so much.
I think I paid like $100 shipping to Australia last year.

does anyone know a way I can contact IW and ask if they would consider selling a blouse only lucky pack next year?

>>8827718
>those wine red items
i'm jelly already

>>8827722
Same thirsty for strawberry fields underbust jsk anon - but in 2-3 months you decide to sell yours, please let me know! Ever since seeing it, it's become my dream dress.

>>8827510
Ah! I think it must have been your post in the BST thread that inspired my new goal to find one for myself! No worries!

>>8827803
Okie dokie, dropped my email! If you decide to sell the red op and matching bonnet, I'd be up for buying it too.

>>8828104
Not the anon you replied, can you see how gigantic the headbow is in black set anons pic? Pink anon literally just need to turn the whole headbow around. AP seem to have forgotten sewing the tails to the band so they don't stick out , but it shows you're both hilariously new that you can't even figure out a head eating ap bow.

AP Whip Factory. Is this a standard size blouse from AP? I'm surprised at how well it fits.

>>8828841
Holy shit I'm so mad I didn't get this now. It looks so pretty in person.

>>8828841
Hnnng. I really want the blouse.
Whip Factory is pretty cute, but I think I still like Cotton Candy Shop more. I actually thought it was tacky when it was released last year, but the pink has really grown on me.

>>8828236
Don't be, it's all rozen maiden cosplay things. I don't plan on keeping them anyway, so >>8828508, I'll let you know. Same goes to >>8828344 as I don't think I have a use for both jsks, I'll email you both once I get it.

>>8828828
Anon, the headbows are still sewn tightly to the middle, idiot.

>>8828841
>that fucking lace holy shit it's adorable

>>8828841

>standard size blouse

There's no such thing, I'm afraid. The older ones are smaller, the more recent ones are bigger, so ones from a couple of years ago are a mix or in-between. If you're buying secondhand, best to ask the seller for amateur measurements.

>>8829447
Headbows from AP with smaller bows aren't, anon. It's so they can be flipped on one side or the other.

Anyone get ETC/LG packs?

>>8828841
Does anyone want pink salopette pictures? It's cute as shit and I'm definitely going to search for the other cuts in both sax and pink.

SaxWhip Anon here- Thanks so much for letting me know, this is my first AP so I had no idea. I have 88cm bust exactly. So I thought for sure AP blouse wasn't gonna fit cause most the time I see their blouses they say 88 or 90 cm (which leaves me 0 room to breath without buttons puckering) but this one is perfect... so perfect I could cry.
Here had some dress details

>>8825338
hey anon, when i went by the stores i only saw the black set leftover- i'm not sure if it's different at the other stores, but this was the case for at least 2 shops i went to.

>>8827148
Looks like Cog Wheel of Time and Eternal El Dorado pants, and a Tourinot vest. I can't identify the blouse sorry.

>>8831086
I bought this set in black and the headbow is sewn to the middle.

If anyone is selling their Whip Factory set in pink or sax or Twinkle Doll in lavender for a good, reasonable price, I'd love to take them off your hands!

>>8831776
Define reasonable price for Twinkle Doll - I'm contemplating getting rid of mine but am on the fence about it.

>>8831901
~$150, mostly I'm trying to get it for "I bought this on impulse but don't really want it so I guess I'll just sell it slightly marked up to avoid a hassle" price.

>>8831914
That sounds fair - please shoot me an email on [email protected] :) I can do $140 shipped.

Here are print closeups which I had to enhance in photoshop considerable to look okay. It's a little dim and the colors aren't very true to life, but it's just showing what is in the print. Excluding some little stars and donuts scattered about.

>>8827277
I got the Special Set and I think it could probably go up that high. It's actually almost big on me at 90 cm, it's easily the largest AP dress I have ever owned.

>>8825943
Hey anon, if you're selling that bustier or any of this actually, let us know! This is all my style.

>>8826804
I usually wait until people start selling the items they don't want from the oddments pack and snap them up at really good prices (last year I got a nwot oddments pack OP for $70)

>>8834143
This print looks cute! Now I'm regretting missing out on this and Twinkle Doll. They look much nicer in person.

If anyone plans to sell their regular waist Whip Factory JSK or Twinkle Doll, I'd be happy to buy them for a fair price.

>>8829397
Do you want your Shinku items, anon? I'd buy it off you. I'll take the socks next to it as well if you don't want them.

Might be interested in some of your other items here as well once you get better pictures. Just use the e-mail whenever you're ready.

If anyone is interested I got a listen flavor lp and an osewayo one which I can post pics of. Both were Soso this year for me.

Any Jane Marple LPs?

>>8834143
I know I should have gotten that salopette LP, it's cute as shit. Guess I'll try my hand at the second hand market.

I'm 5'7" and mine looks like a crop top so I may have to sell it.

> Twin hairs.
Twin tails. I'm an idiot.

Designs were
Bad boy t shirt and sweatshirt. Tee was definitely meant for a guy
Wet fang in worst color way
Mirror mirror sweatshirt
Rock and roll rabbit polo

I preferred last year's bag but I'll still find a use for these. If anyone wants links to the designs let me know. I didn't realize how shitty the picture was.

Has anyone bought an infanta luvky pack by chance?

I'm really tempted to get the Happy Pack at Babys sale page but for some reason I'm hesitating. Tried googling the packs for pictures but couldn't find any. Is Babys happy packs usually a good deal or do they just stick the ugly shit in there?

Oh yeah, I'm the same height as you and it's like a large toddlers shirt save for the long arms. If I lift my arms too high, it'll pop out of the sides, so I shortened the salo to be just above the bottom of the cutsew so you can't see how tiny it is.

Thanks anon! Wow, I was expecting more designs like this and less of those scrunchies. But for 1000 yen it's not bad!

It's a hit or miss.
I bought the $180 variety pack from last month. I got that tacky, ugly Cinderella dress that everyone seemed to get in their packs, another JSK with the matching head bow + socks, a jacket, a guy's shirt, and a useless, random print bonnet.
I'm selling everything except for the JSK with the matching head bow + socks and the jacket.
It feels like they stick some good stuff, and also some leftovers as well. But it's weird because the JSK is from the 2014 lucky pack so.

How do you feel about the socks? They're pretty stretchy which is good I was just surprised the white in the stripes was semi sheer?(I hate to bother but it's my first LP and I'm just wondering if everything is normal of I'm being paranoid. )

I find the Baby JP packs to be much better than the USA packs. Last year's were themed somehow (people got two pink things, two brown things, etc.) and it seems this year everyone got three random JSKs, including lucky pack sets. I honestly wouldn't go for it unless it's under 20,000 yen.

To contribute, here's my Whip Factory JSK set. Would people be interested in more reveals? I have an Ank Rouge set as well.

Hmm, I didn't really notice that, but I'm sure everything's fine, anon! They're only a little bit thinner than my other AP socks, but nothing huge. My dress did come with a loose thread right on the front of the dress which sucks. I don't want to pull it but I also don't want to risk cutting it and having part of the hem unravel. Guess I'll just try to shove it back in with a pin. Lucky packs are prone to having some issues due to the lower price and quality so all is well.

I want to see the Ank Rouge set!

Here's mine. It's weird that you get the skirt and JSK in the same color but at least they are different enough.

>>8840335
I'd love to see the Ank Rouge set!
