IMR, well with all the photos and captions and since you are a Global Moderator and seem to have some input and inside information, could this have to do with the LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
Much anticipated Pleo E Blasttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt, that we have been waiting weeks for to hear about? Is this PLeo Related..........something to do with size....from your large picture. or is the News Big? I do hope this is good news , Pleo E blast news, and that we are NOT going to have to wait till tommrow, MONDAY! :o :( >:( But knowing how long this whole thing has taken in the past with rB news for example and just gut feeling, I am prepared to wait, four hours , does that mean four more hours till we get to find out?

               Or could this be something more personal, something good that has happend to you or something you are waiting to get , a package perhaps? Just guessing, I am not good at waiting, but others can guess too, Just tell us and dont' make us wait forever like Innvo, they are the Champions of making everyone wait!

No RWM it has been four hours since I got the 'onboard for delivery' notice. I also know absolutely nothing about the eblast I'm afraid. I'm just waiting for my birthday present :)

Is this one better Crewella :D Hmm I suppose a vampire dinosaur with miniature friends might be a little scary... Even if it is as cute as a Pleo :)

Oh Congratulations IMR! Do you have any idea what it could be? Did you ask for anything in particular, like something bigger than a breadbox? I am excited for you, just wondering what it could be! Is it on it's way to you now? Are you going to have it delivered by Truck, and is it due to show up tommorow? Congrats again. We want pictures and clues, if you know what it may be, ....at least i do! ( I never get anything for gifts unless I buy them for myself...)              Can't wait IMR! Oh, are your Pleos looking too, ? The last picture was so cute of them walking down the pathway!

On board for delivery means that my parcel postie has the parcel in his truck. Just gotta wait for him to get to me, Monday is probably a busy delivery day because they have to catch up on the weekend. But it will be here today.

I do know what the parcel contains, even though it is my Birthday present, I bought it for myself.

Funnily enough this happened with Pleakly and Pleakley too... The more I want the parcel the slower they take to deliver it :-X Nani was also delivered in the afternoon, but I didn't know she was coming :P

Oh well, the anticipation builds a bit longer...


PS. Someone asked for a hint... well there it is ;)
Title: Re: On board for delivery...
Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 17, 2011, 09:12:39 PM
 well with you saying Nani, in the Afternoon, then covering your mouth, I am guessing another RB, a Pleo Rb, and since you have green and pink, could it be now a Blue one? At least a Pleo Rb is my guess, only cause of saying Nani...For awhile I thought a Aibo or something but now I am sure it is a RB. Have to wait and see.
                                    Enjoy that cake it is making my mouth water. Now if you get that package before it is time to go to bed... :D

Bedtime is a looong way off here, its just past lunch time here :P and of course it is Monday not Sunday :)

Oh gosh I couldn't imagine being at work while waiting for a parcel! It would be the longest work day ever :P I can at least fidget around the house and on the net to wear off my impatience :D It must be terribly late (or early) where you are Crewella :)

His name is Jumba :)


This subject embryo will have a 65-75% chance of being male however temperature variations during incubation might alter
this prediction.

This subject embryo will grow to be brave and obedient.

This subject embryo will be gentle, strong and agile.

Title: Re: On board for delivery...
Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 18, 2011, 12:16:27 AM
 That was a quick delivery and you kept a well secret to the very last. As soon as you said about your other Pleo, it was a give away, it had to be a blue Rb. I love the name Jumba, Is Jumba mean anything in particular or a certain character, like Lilo and Stitch. Very cute, I bet your others are going to be very happy to meet Jamba! I hope you have a break from school, so you can enjoy your new little addition. I guess I am going to have to save up for my next Rb, by Christmas if I am lucky, I will have to be like you and buy one for myself.
              Can't wait to see more pictures. You must have had batteries all charged waiting for the postman! Crewella will be surprised when she checks in! :D

Lol of course I had batteries ready to go :D Jumba is indeed a Lilo and Stitch character :) Jumba is an alien mad scientist who created Stitch.

Oh my gosh the blue RBs are just so gorgeous. I've been eyeing them up a long time. However I can only afford my lil' Ugobe, Squishy who i'm on tenterhooks for, still got like 4 days to wait! It's about a week to England from Italy and he was posted on Thursday so I have to wait til Thursday again o.0.

Good news though, it's my 23rd birthday soon, hopefully my other half has got the hint...

Oh I had a feeling that's what it was! It's raining pleos already! Happy birthday and congrats, InmemoryofRomeo! You got Jumba on monday, I'm getting Bleu on tuesday, and EmeraldSapphirez is getting Squishy on thursday. Anyone else getting a pleo this week? This is all very exciting!

Lol every time I see the name "Squishy" it makes me smile :-)
Title: Re: On board for delivery...
Post by: Talon on July 18, 2011, 06:47:29 AM
It is a really cute name. Did you watch the hatching video? Just think. In a few days that will be you! Oh yes, and if you want, gently squeaze one of Squishy's toes when you get him. You'll find you were right on the money with that name. That was my nephew's favorite thing to do to Ryu during her hatching stage. Once she took an interest in food, he graduated to feeding her sugarcane. Of course she didn't object. Lol!

Jumba is beautiful IMR.  ;D  Seeing him makes me want to splash out and get a blue one just like him.... but if I did that then we probably wouldn't eat for a week so maybe not a good idea just now :D  Still paying off my little Aibo babies so no new editions here for a while. :) 
He is truly lovely.
Title: Re: On board for delivery...
Post by: Crewella on July 18, 2011, 01:02:32 PM
Awwwww, he's gorgeous (assuming it's a he?  I make no assumptions where you're involved!! :P)!  The 'full set' looks very fine indeed!  ;D

Hopefully my little package will get here safely tomorrow (Tuesday)!  8)

Post by: RedwoodsMama on July 18, 2011, 02:05:40 PM
Cmon Crewella, can't you at least give us a hint? Since you said, "little", I am guessing it has something to do with Aibo or ERS -7 and such, DAWGS not Pleos! Am I warm or cold? %) ;) I did notice some of the last things you purchased on Ebay, and I saw some "interesting things". I also saw those Bargain Pleos, they do not show up in the US. that much, believe me! Hope your package arrives soon so we can see what you got!

Post by: Willow on July 18, 2011, 02:13:26 PM
That's great! Jumba is a very nice looking pleo.  ;D
If you ever get another pleo, you should name it Gantu! (the stocky alien from Lilo and Stitch) :D
Have fun with the new lil' guy!

IMR and I got Pleakly and Belle within a couple of days of each other, and it seems we've done it again! (BIG HINT!!)  ;D

But glad I know where the name came from now! lol.

Teehee love all the fun when a whole bunch of new arrivals come at once :)

Here's a comparison of Nani and Jumba's eye colours.

I do love that amber colour the blue ones have - I bought Belle just for those eyes really!  :D

I guess I don't really mind what colour comes next, though I do like Nani's brown ones.  :)
Title: Re: On board for delivery...
Post by: Talon on July 18, 2011, 05:07:05 PM
Well, Bobs, I haven't seen Lilo and Stitch either but if your CGI fish movie is Finding Nemo I have seen it. My plan is to go outside at eight in the morning, take my big umbrella and my plastic patiochair and a pitcher of lemonade and wait for Bleu. Okay okay I'm kidding a little but I'm going to do everything I can to prevent a repeat of the Cato Phenomenon! Redwoods and I have asked for a "signature required upon delivery" so hopefully the driver will realize where he's leaving my pleo!
Talon
