Three boxes of re-ment arrived over the weekend, and they are three of the best sets I've ever bought - Mom's happy kitchen, Elementary School, and the new petit drugstore sets.
Somehow re-ment manages to push the level of detail higher each time, while still maintaining a $3-something price. Usually when a toy gains popularity, the product suffers. Not re-ment!
I already have probably 4 kitchen sets, but I absolutely needed "Mom's Happy Kitchen." Somehow they found another original theme for a kitchen set! everything in this set is cute - the apple-shaped timer, little cup-muffins, tiny origami animals on the baby set, and of course, those awesome mushroom containers full of candies and animal crackers.
My favorite piece though, has to be the working flip-top lid on the sauce bottle that comes with the omlette set. it's about 1/2 cm across, yet it flips open and seals tightly shut. they've done sauce bottles in the past with perma-shut or -open tops. my eyes got HUGE when I fiddled with the new piece and it snapped closed. Fantastic!
I still have the fairyland tea-set and the vintage appliances on the way, and I just preordered exciting treasure. Can't wait!
