I caved and bought these Dodgers items. FUN!

Like many others in here I don’t know a baseball from the back of my head, but I do consider myself to be a free man. Free enough that I batted not an eyelid at the $127AUD shipping cost.

Dollars wafting away cherry blossom-style in an infuriatingly gentle breeze within this ecosystem of TM hysteria… smh… But importantly the plastic tote is a more digestible anchor point for my still pending for validation Panda bag charm than a Stock X-priced 2025 bag.

But very excited to see how people pair their LV x TM and Dodgers gear. Kind of a smart way to dress LV’s cherry blossoms down.

Also, does anybody know if this is the first time the pink LV flowers have appeared on non-LV items?

Congratulations on landing some of Takashi Murakami's collaboration pieces with the Major League Baseball organization. I do want to clarify what you wrote above as these are not LV flowers. The flowers are Murakami's creation, he's the artist behind the superflat design. That's why it's a Murakami x MLB collab.

Thank you for the insight! I didn’t know this. I wonder when and where TM’s cherry blossom flower first appeared. I’ll investigate.

Diving into Murakami's meaning behind his smiling flowers may give one a better understanding and further appreciation as well. It's more than just a smiling flower. Enjoy the investigation.

Murakami has used the same cherry blossom motifs in a lot of his original artworks, but I don’t think he’s produced much merch with it beyond prints/stickers and cookies.

The cherry blossoms were all over his massive retrospective at the Kyocera museum in Kyoto last year!
 
Put in a DEPWO for the bag charm (non furry) today but our SA said it’s not guaranteed this time round. And also my panda bag charm now has a revised delivery date of 24 April….
My CA sent me items available in sg, and the non furry flower charm isn’t one of them 🤔 only charms bought by our country are the chain n furry ones.
 
Yay! Should be here by the weekend. So strange your MC hasn’t moved though. Maybe they are still making and sourcing it for you. Hang in there. In the meantime they are sending you blossom to enjoy! 🌸
So excited! I did manage to get the white MC nano speedy which was my priority. The other orders are for a bag charm and card holder. If they can’t be fulfilled I’ll still be happy with the nano speedy.
