Spica and Ladies' Code Arrivals

Ladies' Code and SPICA Autographed Editions!
 Got a couple of CDs today from the folks over at Yesasia as part of their awesome Autographed Specials, Ladies' Code's new Mini-Album "Pretty Pretty" and SPICA's single for their new song Tonight". Though I've liked both groups enough, this is the first time I've ever purchased anything from them. I'd actually really REALLY liked SPICA's song "I'll Be There" from last year, and couldn't WAIT to purchase the album, alas, it was one of their "digital release only" songs, and when their new mini-album "Lonely" came out, "I'll be There" was not to be seen on it.
  I like SPICA's song "Tonight" well enough, and I TOTALLY LOVED Ladies' Code "Pretty Pretty", but naturally, the thing that pushed me into quickly ordering these CDs was that they were autographed! And sure enough, both albums came with the members pretty signatures adorning the jackets...
  SPICA's signatures were particularly neat and legible and I love that they signed under the images of themselves. Ladies Code, on the other hand,  was signed on the cover which made it sort of hard to make out since the cover was so crazy and LOUD, LOL! I wish they could have flipped the book over and signed the BACK of the CD since their cute pictures were right there!

SPICA's album also came with a set of Buttons (how's THAT for 80's nostalgia?) as well as a SPICA earcap, which, of course, made me go online to research "Just What the HECK is an Earcap?

Turns out it's a designer plug used to cover your earphone jack so dust doesn't get in it, and there are TONS of different kinds out there! Ahahaha, I guess I'm just not tuned into these newfangled Iphone-y Accesories (was even recently amazed when my friend's girlfriend showed me the rubber "octopus" stand she got to prop up her phone while watching movies) but I was quite interested seeing all the collectible earcaps available online when I DID find out what it was!

OK, Time to start ripping these Bad Boys to MP3...
