And, I have to confess a moment of stupidity on my part. I had thought the HT in my local mall was gone. Well, its not. Now, either they had been repainting or something, because the facade had been all covered in tarps and stuff or...I was simply looking at another, empty store (there is such a tarped-up store near one end of the mall, I saw it today). I think I just saw the empty one and thought that was it. :P I mean, I did look to see if it had moved and didn't see it...oh well, I dunno. But the good news is they're still there.

SOmething like that happened to me once. I lost my mall's Hot Topic and I was convinced they had left. But when I went back again they were there, just with a smaller entrance that is easily missed by those standing more than 15 feet away.

Sounds like HT went through a remodel or something country wide. Much the same thing happened at my mall. They moved to a different part of the mall, and their new entrance is very small for some reason. It's easy to miss. I thought they were gone until I looked at the directory and just realized they moved. Thankfully the inside of the store is just as big (if not bigger) as before. :bloosmirk:

Well, our HT did in fact move before Christmas, and then - again unless I just had a ditz moment - they remodeled...although they look exactly the same as they did before. :P I dunno. And if they were remodeling when it was tarped up, a small note saying they would re-open would have been nice. They had a note saying they had moved when they did that.

Hmm, my mall's HT moving took place last fall. Yeah, sounds like the store had a company wide revamp of some sort.

I was reminded of a funny thing that happened last week this morning, concerning the first blanket featuring Bloo and Cheese. Thought I'd share. :P

As we are well aware, the show's style is without black outlines. Same goes for their merchandise, including the blankets. It's also useful for you to know I like to sleep in the darkest room possible. I have blinds and thick green curtains up in my bedroom window. At night it's nearly pitch black in there, and in the morning, only enough light creeps in between the blinds and the wall for everything to be in gray scale (that is, not enough light to see colors, but I can see). Now, I have the blanket on my bed, and one morning last week, I woke up and noticed the creepiest thing. In my drowsy state, I thought something had actually happened to my blanket! But what could possibly make Cheese disappear entirely?? All I could see of Cheese was his eyes and grin. The yellow of his body and the light blue of the background are apparently very close in scale that without my seeing the actual colors, they blended right into each other. I could see Bloo fine, as his dark blue stood out from the light blue background. But Cheese had disappeared! All I saw was his floating face! Oh, and Bloo had a hand shaped "hole" in his side. It took me a second to realize that nothing was actually wrong, it was just a visual effect. I reached over and turned my lamp on and Voila! There was Cheese, perfectly fine. I cracked up laughing at how I thought something had happened to my blanket. *gasp* Someone stole Cheese right off my blanket!! :wiltshock: 8D

Feel free to try it if you've got the blanket. As long as it's just dark enough to see everything in gray scale. All you'll see is Cheese's floating eyes and teeth. It looks kinda creepy. :cheese:

Hottopic.com has added a new pair of shoelaces with Bloo and Cheese;

and a pair of gloves with Bloo on them:

Yay Cheese. :cheesegrin: ::)

I'm looking forward to HT's almost inevitable "I Pooted" Valentine's Day collection. :P

*sigh* Goody! :cheesegrin: ::) Everyone else does NOT matter. :P

I stopped by Hot Topic earlier today while I was at the mall- I think I saw some new items (well, they seemed new to me).

There was a Bloo themed fragrance (body spray, I believe) that smelled like blueberries and cream (can't remember the name; Eau de Kazoo would fit). I tried it; smelled like blueberry candy.:bloosmirk:

There was also a lavender wallet thing with Eduardo printed all over it; very cute and practical. :smed:

Has anyone else seen these items? I'd like to know if they're new releases, or if they've been out.

I think I saw the wallet a while ago, but not that spray. I need to get out to an HT soon, its been a while.
