Upcoming Merch Predictions (End of 2022)

Hey guys,

I put together this list of potential releases that may happen towards the end of the year.

These are all just educated guesses to help any fellow collectors get their priorities in order xD

1 - Wooteo Themed MD

Honestly feel like this could be any time this week, and could be just a plushy or may be a whole collection 💀

2 - Weverse Black Friday Sale

I think it will most likely be TinyTan, BT21 and Weverse content that go on sale but there are still a few bits of random merch from old releases that they might put on sale; just something to be mindful of.

3 - 2022 Dalmajung Restock

After the initial sale they were selling this MD at the Busan concerts, so I feel like there is still a small chance they might restock if there was still leftovers from there. (Yes I am aware they say 'discontinued' at the moment, but they've done this before too.)

4 - RM Solo Album (& Lucky Draws?)

If all the rumors are true, then the official release will be November 25th, which means the promotional information and preorders could drop any day now. Personally I'd put my money on next Monday being the start of preorders!

5 - New TXT Album

This one is a bit less concrete but Yeonjun and Hyuka recently spoke about the concept for their next comeback in a live, so that makes me think things are already concrete and they just need time to recover from their tour. I would put money on the preorders opening this month with a release in mid-Dec latest.

6 - Jin's Photo Folio & Soobin's Birthday MD

Obviously with their birthdays being early December, the preorders will likely open in the last week of November, just before or during the Black Friday sales (don't expect any discounts though!)

7 - BTS & TXT Little Wishes Holiday Collection

They did this last year for all HYBE artists and in my memory it seemed to sell really well, so I don't see why they wouldn't do it again this year. (This could also potentially be our last OT7 MD this year :c)

I can't remember the exact sales period they had last year, but I think I remember it arriving before the holidays so the sales would need to be early December latest.

8 - TXT (and maybe BTS???) Seasons Greetings

Preorders typically start mid/late-November to early December, with these shipping around the 20th-ish domestically, so they arrive before the new years. I was fairly confident we'd get a BTS one until I saw the calendar in the Us, Ourselves and BTS folio, so now I'm not sure... 😥

9 - V's Photo Folio

I expect sales to start mid-December and release on/around his birthday as with all the others.

10 - Weverse New Year's Concert Tickets

BTS almost definitely won't be in it as a group this year, and I dunno why but my gut tells me the members won't be performing their solos here either, but that's just my conjecture. TXT on the other hand, I expect to see in their full force!

Tickets will likely open early to mid-December and the show will be on New Year's Eve as per usual.

11 - MOA Membership Renewal

I expect the announcement to be late-Dec or early January, with the renewal period also being in January, as this is what they do every year!

So... how's everyone spending their pennies? XD

But in all seriousness, I hope this list is helpful to someone!

General Updates [22.11.02]

Hi guys, Han here again with the next round of general updates~

Jin - The Astronaut - Preorders & Lucky Draws

Currently both of these are well underway - all orders have been placed and I'm just waiting for things to arrive.

In terms of preorders, I feel like Weverse is getting slower and slower with every release OTL I've only just gotten my first shipping notification this morning for the preorder albums, but I should have them all hopefully by the end of the week, and then I can do the packing and send quotes this weekend.

In terms of lucky draws, actually almost all of the Powerstation albums arrived yesterday, they were crazy fast! I'm fairly confident that all of the lucky draw orders will have arrived by the end of the week, so likewise, I will be packing and sending quotes then.

[22.11.04 Update: Weverse preorders have all shipped and will arrive to me today! All Powerstation orders have arrived and all M2U orders are due to arrive today also. Still waiting on Soundwave updates.]

BTS Photo Folio

I just wanted to confirm that I've placed all the orders that have been made for these, so if anyone was curious, rest assured. They're due for release early next week but we'll have to see how fast Weverse ship them ^^;; I hope to get them all and finish PC sorting by the end of next week, but I'll keep you guys informed via Twitter.

Other Arrivals & Shipping

Likewise, I know I haven't posted proof pictures recently because I've been quite busy, but I wanted to confirm that the BTS Love Yourself Speak Yourself DVD/DC/BRs have arrived and are storage for combined shipping where applicable.

I've also shipped all of the orders that were invoiced during October so if you haven't received your shipping confirmation with your tracking number, please make sure you check your spam inbox, or your order history on this website!

Website Updates

Finally, I have made a minor addition to the website! I've added a new menu page which has a calendar with upcoming merch releases on it, so you use that to calculate if your orders are eligible for combined shipping. I will generally try to combine orders even if you don't explicitly ask, but if you do want something shipping out early, just let me know!

I am trying to add some sort of review feature also, but I'm having a little bit more difficulty finding a widget that works, so please bare with me.

Anyway, I hope the new additions are helpful and I hope this update has been informative - if you have any questions, you can always get in touch via the contact page or email. Please give me a few days to answer though, life is kind of a lot right now, so I appreciate you patience!

As always, magic & purple hearts,

Han

General Updates [22.10.09]

This is just a general update for all orders, in case anyone was uncertain or concerned about anything~

All orders for Weverse/Samsonite items have been successfully placed~

If you ordered any of the following:

• Jimin Photo Folio

• BTS LY:SY DVD/DC/BR

• BTS Love Yourself Her Vinyl LP

• Samsonite Luggage

Your order has been successfully placed (up to and including order number 10042.) Most of these items are still available so I have left the order pages open, but if anyone wants me to open for the 2nd preorder of Jimin's Folio then please let me know on Twitter :3

If you're waiting for a refund from BTS Proof Exhibition Trip #3 or #4

I will be emailing everyone whose orders have been affected today, and will send refunds as requested by tomorrow (Monday KST).

If you are waiting for shipping from BTS Proof Exhibition Trip #1 ~ #4

I will be organizing that this evening (Sunday KST) and send shipping quotes by tomorrow (Monday KST).

If you have already paid for domestic shipping, I will just register your package and refund any repeat charges.

Monday is a public holiday so shipping won't actually happen until Tuesday earliest.

Future trip slots~

Previously I said I would visit the Yet To Come Seoul Popup, but after monitoring the situation on Twitter, none of the By BTS items are left anyway, so I'm just going to wait for the Weverse release of the Busan merch, as it will be less strenuous and also cheaper since there are no travel fees to factor in. I will open the order page for these items today or tomorrow as the Weverse sale begins on Tuesday.

If you are waiting for Trip #5 slots for the Proof Exhibition, they will open Mon 5pm KST, approx 25.5 hours from now! I will be visiting the exhibition on Tues, and I will not open slots for the items that where sold out during the last two trips (ie the RM & j-hope lenticular sets).

Final call for BTS T-Money orders

If you want to order the BTS T-Money cards being released on Jimin's birthday, consider today as you final chance as I will be closing the order page whenever I wake up tomorrow. So get your orders in asap!
