Photolog 2021: Day 105 of 365

So, I joined a group order last May to get some new BTS enamel pins (because I have an addiction) and totally forgot about it because THEY JUST ARRIVED. Almost A YEAR LATER.

 
BTS "2020 Winter Package in Helsinki" Enamel Pin Set
BTS "Zero O'Clock" Rotating Enamel Pin
BTS Bring the Soul: The Movie Ticket Enamel Pin
I think this group order takes the cake at being the longest one yet (which is really saying something because GOs are notorious for taking a long time). But, hey, at least they're cute.

My BTS enamel pins from Peanut Paper Co. finally arrived!

BTS "Young Forever" Hard Enamel Pin
BTS "Dionysus" 3D Soft Enamel Pin
I ordered these via a group order in July and they just got here today, so I'm gonna treat these like I meant to buy them as a little birthday present to myself. 🙃

The moment I saw these BTS Wings pins by Nicubiii, I knew I had to have them all. So about three months ago, I joined a group order for them and they finally arrived today. And all I can say is, WOW.

Nicubiii — "Blood Sweat & Tears" Jungkook Rose Gold Pin
Nicubiii — "Blood Sweat & Tears" V Gold Pin
Nicubiii — "Blood Sweat & Tears" V Gold Pin
These are by far the most beautiful pins I have ever seen, maybe ever. The detail and the accuracy of the illustrations of each member and each scene, are just astounding. The rose gold "Blood Sweat & Tears" Jungkook pin features the scene where he is floating in the air, exactly as in the MV, with the chandeliers connected by chains, and a lavender glitter background with tiny feathers floating around him. The gold "Blood Sweat & Tears" V pin (I chose the "Day" version because it was the most accurate colour scheme to the MV) features, of course, the iconic scene of V as a fallen angel sitting on the balcony. This one actually features hinged doors, so you can open and close them, with the lyrics of the song engraved into the panels. These are, in a word, exquisite.

Nicubiii — Wings Solo Pins — RM "Reflection" and Jin "Awake"
Nicubiii — Wings Solo Pins — Suga "First Love" and J-Hope "Mama"
Nicubiii — Wings Solo Pins — Jimin "Lie" and Jungkook "Begin"
Nicubiii — Wings Solo Pins — V "Stigma"
Of course, I had to get all seven of the Wings solo member pins as well because I was in a throwback mood with the "Blood Sweat & Tears" pins (which, in my opinion, is their most iconic MV, with Wings being my favourite era). Each one features lyrics from each member's solo song from the Wings album on the back, and has the most divine detail, from the intricate floral design to the placement of chains to the colour of gems hanging from each pin. These pins were not cheap, but they're worth every penny — these are pure works of art.

The last item from the G.O. that I made last September arrived today: the Your Time photobook set by Jimin fansite, LOOK AT MIN!. This is her 3rd photobook that was originally made for Jimin's birthday last year. I honestly forgot about it because it's been so long, but damn, it was worth the wait.

This set came with, of course, the stunning photobook, as well as a set of five postcards, a picket, a set of stickers, a mini slogan, a set of 8 photocards, and a set of two buttons, all featuring some of the most stunning photos that LOOK AT MIN! took over the course of 2018 to early 2019. This is my third Jimin photobook, but honestly, I am always in awe of the quality and design of these sets. Everything down to the last detail, even in all the "bonus" items that come with the photobooks, are gorgeous and well-made. As I said, totally worth the wait.

Opened the third and final item from my latest G.O. that arrived a few days ago: the 2020 Color Greeting of Jimin Set.

2020 Color Greeting of Jimin — Calendar Photocards
2020 Color Greeting of Jimin — Instagram Key Ring, Large Button, ARMY Bomb Key Ring, 4-Cut Photo Bookmarks, and Photocards
So... I totally forgot that I had ordered this. Yes, it's a yearly planner/calendar set, much like BTS' official Season's Greetings sets, except this one features Jimin photos and designs by one of my fave Jimin fansites, Prussian Blue. But due to crazy long processing times (I ordered this last September), it arrived six months into the year... which means half of the standing calendar, desk calendar, calendar photocards, and planner are somewhat useless... BUT THEY FEATURE PRETTY PICTURES OF THE PRETTIEST JIMIN, SO THIS SET IS STILL TOTALLY WORTH IT.

A second exhibition photobook that was created for Jungkook's birthday, this time by Jungkook fansite, The Knock. I guess I was feeling serious FOMO last year for Jungkook's birthday and tried to make up for it by buying photobooks. We're actually closer to Kookie's 24th birthday than we are to his 23rd now, but with the way this pandemic is going, I may just have to celebrate Kookie's birthday this year by buying more photobooks instead of going out.
