[23.02.22] General Update & Upcoming Releases

Hi guys, Han here!

Today I just wanna run thru some quick updates and heads up for upcoming releases~

TXT The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION - Round 2 Lucky Draws

All TXT preorders and round 1 lucky draws have already been processed and shipped, and currently round 2 lucky draws are under way. Powerstation have already sent a shipping notification, so those should be ready to go this week, but unfortunately it looks like M2U and Soundwave are going to be slow (as per usual). I will keep you guys updated via Twitter when they arrive!

BT21 x McDonalds

There has been INSANE demand for these little figurines this release, and unfortunately with the stipulations in place for the purchase (you need to buy a burger MEAL to be able to even purchase the figures), unfortunately I will not be able to hold a GO to the capacity I would have liked.

After considering what would be the best way to allow as many people as possible to opportunity to get their hands on the figures, I've decided I will not be selling any sets, only individual characters - however you can still buy all 7 characters, if you're fast enough!

I will start by opening only 10 slots, as I think I should be able to get 10 sets that I can then break up between the joiners of this GO, and if I think there is a chance of me being able to purchase more, then I will open additional slots afterwards.

The initial slots will be opened at 6pm on Feb 23rd, KST!

I am still figuring out price and such, as I need to map out the McDs around me and find out if they even have stock available, but all the information will be compiled on the order page when it goes live.

D'Festa The Movie

After posting the interest check on Twitter, a lot of you were interested in these DVDs/Blu-Rays so I will be moving forward with the GO, however the actual sale does not start until March 3rd, so at present I do not have any price information. The listings will go live once there is more information available.

A number of you also reached out and messaged me privately asking if I would be willing to do other HYBE artists, namely SVT and EN-, to which the answer is YES! So, for the first time, you will be able to purchase their items alongside BTS and TXT. If there is a good response, in future I will consider doing select GOs for them (mainly albums & DVDs) and who knows, maybe they'll become stables in the future.

Jimin 'FACE' Album

JIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN <3 (ohmydaystheteasersoundedsogoodandIcan'twaittohearwhatthealbumsoundslikeandseetheconceptphotoslet'sgoooooo)

*ahem* GO for Jimin's album will run as standard, and if there are lucky draws, of course I will do those too~! ^^

$50 Giveaway Winner Announcement

I know I am SO late on announcing the winner for this, I sincerely apologize but I just got so snowed under with TXT's comeback and the sheer mountain of albums I needed to get thru.

It is with great pleasure and much thanks that I can announce the winner of the giveaway was: Shawna <3

A huge thank you to Shawna and everyone else who left a review and participated in the event! I learned from your guys' reviews that the shipping process was not always kind to your albums, and now I know that's something I need to be more mindful of when packing, so thank you for letting me know.

If you didn't win this time around, don't sweat it as I'll be sure to host small giveaways and events like this in future ^^

That's it for this week's round up~! If you have any questions, feel free to hit me up on Twitter <3

TXT TNC:TEMPTATION Lucky Draws Explained

I will be opening orders for lucky draws for the following four stores:

• Naver

• M2U Record

• Powerstation

• Soundwave

As the rules to get the lucky draws (hereafter 'LDs') are slightly different for each store, I am going to do my best to explain it as simply as possible. DM on Twitter if you still have questions after reading this post (twice!)

---

Naver

For Naver, there are two different sets of LDs depending on which version of the album you get.

• For regular albums (Daydream, Nightmare, Farewell), you will get 1 of 5 unit PCs per album purchased

• However, if you buy 3 copies of the regular album (aka a set), you will get all 5 unit PCs

• For lullaby albums (all random), you will get 1 random member PC per album purchased

• However, if you buy 5 copies of the lullaby albums, you will get all 5 member PCs

All Naver LDs are holographic and they're only on sale for *1 hour* so they are highly sought after, and basically impossible to buy secondhand. The sale is on Monday Jan 30th 10pm KST, so I will be taking orders until 10pm the night before!

Regular Version LDs:

Lullaby Version LDs:

Soundwave, M2U & Powerstation

There is a new system being implemented with lucky draws this comeback, so depending on what you get, there are two kinds of PCs you can receive. To make things easier I will be referring to them as Type A and Type B to differentiate.

LD Type A: Member PCs, specific to each store. Total of 15 variations (5 per store) LD Type B: Unit PCs, same design for all stores. Total of 5 variations.

If you purchase a single copy of an album, you will get one LD Type A for that specific store. It does not matter whether you buy the regular version or the lullaby version. One copy of regular albums = 1 Type A LD, and one copy of lullaby albums = 1 Type A LD.

However, if you buy a SET of either album version, you will receive *all 5* Type A PCs and 2 *random* Type B PCs. Again, it does not matter if you buy a set of regular albums (3 copies) or a set of lullaby albums (copies), it will still be the same rule either way.

You can mix random copies in a single order, for example, you can buy 2 regular copies and 2 lullaby copies, but this will not count as a set, so you'd just get 4 random Type A LDs. (No Type Bs.)

There is no way to get the Type B LDs without buying a set from the same store - you can not split a set across multiple stores.

If you just want your bias(es) Type A LDs, then you should focus on buying one copy from each store - buying the lullaby version will also be the cheaper option.

So, if you want to get all 5 Type B LDs, you need to buy at least three sets total - so my suggestion would be to buy one set from each store, that way you get all 15 Type A LDs, and you'll actually have 6 total Type B cards. (The regular version sets are cheaper overall but the option to buy a lullaby set will still be available.)

Please note that even if you do what I just said, I can not 100% guarantee that you will still get all 5 Type B variations because there is no way to know which I will get from each store, but when sorting, I will be prioritizing the people who buy 3 or more sets of LDs to make sure you have the highest chance of getting a complete set.

However, if you want to cheat the system and have the funds to spare, buying 3 sets from the same store will increase your chances of getting a full set of Type B, because each store tends to send equal amounts of each card in my experience.

Powerstation Type A:

M2U Type A:

Soundwave Type A:

All Stores Type B:

As I said, if you still have questions after reading this (twice!) then feel free to message me on Twitter and I'll try to help as best I can.

I'll be closing all orders at Sun Jan 29th, 10pm KST, however be aware that things can sell out before then, so get your orders in quick!

In the mean time, remember to keep streaming <3

TXT - The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION Preorder Round-Up

Hi guys, Han here - AND TXT HAVE FINALLY ANNOUNCED THEIR COMEBACK!!!!!

And with it, they have decided to drive us all crazy with a million and one extra things XD So, I've put together this post to try and organise everything!

Weverse Preorders & Events

Now, I want to make this clear that I am only going to talk about Weverse GLOBAL because that is where I will be purchasing everything from!

Weverse Global's POBs are as follows:

Random album: 1 of 5 random holographic PCs + 1 random PC frame

Album Set: 3 of 5 random holographic PCs + 3 PC frames + 1 Group Postcard

Weverse Global Video Fan Sign

If you purchase an album through me, you can not enter the video fan sign through me. This is because you can only enter once per account and it must be in the same name as your MOA membership, and you have to show ID when the event happens. Sorry!

Korean Retailer Preorders

As you probably know, many Korean retailers have their own preorder benefits for each comeback. For this particular comeback, almost all of them have PCs and Postcards, so, for the first time ever, I have decided I will post a GO for these, but only if requested.

So far I've had a few requests, so I have already put up a couple listings, but if the shop you want is not there, just DM me or send a contact form and I will add a new listing ^^ There are no visuals for the POBs yet, but when they drop, I will do my best to share them on Twitter or update this post.

There will only be one listing for each shop, however, if you want a set, just add 3 to your basket, and I will purchase a set for you!

---

Signed Albums

I know there has been a lot of buzz about the signed albums (which are only signed on the postcard inside the album by the way!) However, the retailer for this is in the US, and realistically, it won't be economical for me to buy them, ship them to Korea, sort them, and then ship them out again, especially as most of you who buy through me are already in the states.

For that reason, I have no intention of hosting a GO for this, however - if you are DESPERATE, and will be willing to pay the extra shipping fees for these albums, then let me know. I will be purchasing my own, so there will at least be a handful to sort with, increasing everyone's chances of getting who they want. I also have a close family friend in the states who MAY be willing to do the sorting and shipping from her place in the states.

Again, only inquire if you are SERIOUS about spending all that money - and also be aware that the signed albums cost over $30 each, and are probably limited, so you'll need to let me know ASAP.

Anyhow, I hope this little list up was helpful for someone~

Happy comeback season!!!!

Magic & Purple Hearts,

Han
