PpG comes in boxes too ya know...

The PowerPuff Girls is making headlines again with its line of square box tissues! I shouldn't say it's a come back, actually the box version should be launched head-to-head with the tissue packets, just that I didn't notice it but lucky me! It didn't manage to espace from my forever PpG-GPRS-locater eyes and I saw one of the PpG boxes at the supermarket...
















and was even more surprised to find that they come in F.O.U.R. as well!















To be honest, upon scrutinising the boxes close up, I found the quality of the boxes to be rather dodgy, as well as the finishing touches a bit too cin cai, with blots of dried up glues clearly visible on the sides where the paper board's joints are. I can't help it coz I, too, am slowly catching the disease of people who are in the paper industry, more so coz we are one of the main suppliers of Box board (board used to make boxes duh).

But~~~~!!! The designs are full of colour and they are simply - Awesome!!!! The overall design concept of the boxes are actually an extension of the tissue packs, whereby they have the same 'maturing' quality in all three of the girls, but the boxes come with an extra touch of having LV-like monograms (oOoooOooohhhh....), bearing what else but mixture of 'ppg' wordings, heart shapes, four leaf clovers, flowery patterns and snowy dinglets (i think I just invented a new word :o) They look quite classy but cute at the same time with the monograms and I just love 'em.... and as if the LV-like monograms are not enough, they even have this global franchise thingy lined all over the bottom of the box in black - Paris * Milan * Townsville * New York; and the Million Dollar question is...............

Which of the global franchise location is true in this case? Is it..
A. Paris

B. Milan

C. Townsville

D. New York


This is so not a million dollar question coz obviously C is forever the correct answer, even in this post!

So let's kick it off with my fave Bubbles!!!






























There's actually not a lot of words to describe these cute li'l things except cute, cute... and sooooo.... cute!! @#^%* (these are symbols of enthusiasm and should not be interpreted otherwise)

Ok.. the lower left corner actually says "I love the special softness of Premier" (i doubt the statement but let's just go with it for the sake of PpG shall we?)

The Bubbles one actually says 'Glamour Zone' with a playful her posing the model S-to-the-front pose on the side, while there are 2 lady-like poses on each of the 2 main sides of the box:- 1 in the seated position while the other standing.. and her ever-big round eyes stood out like they're telling me 'u made the right choice picking me as your fave!!' (imagine it uttered with Bubbles' cartoon-ish voice) And the last pic highlights the lid where the signature PowerPuff Girls logo can be seen in Black and White.

Next up we have our leader Blossom++++






























Blo
ssom is one time posing in a lying position with her pretty face when suddenly she storms up and flashes her ever long auburn hair! Cool! Blossom's statement is "Wanna dish?" with a sweet, inviting look from her on top.

Last but not least, thou shall not forget Buttercup as she has grown to be very prim and proper :)






























Buttercup looks a bit mischievious even while standing very straight on one side while the other portrays her trying hard to pose in a seducing grin... hahahhaha... The side is equally cute with Buttercup sitting on one side while holding her legs to another, maintaining her flash of an all-winning Darlie smile :D

The black one is most definitely the most unique one as black colour was never one of the essential colours in PpG and it actually looked mysterious yet classy to put all the PpG together in--















The "ppg" monograms actually stood out more in black and even both of the main sides bear the same design, my ultimate liking was the side design with Bubbles and Buttercup smilling away happily that their eyes formed a thin wavy line! It's the cutest of them all !!!!!!!!!!! Here is says 'diva x 3' and they indeed live up to it, nevertheless a cuter version.

I don't know if i can really use the tissues or if i'm ever gonna throw the boxes away once the tissues run out.. it's such a horrible thing to do to PpG... but for the time being, i'm gonna keep them... and keep them.. and keep them....

hmm.....the box a little bit disappointing I must say. I didn't expect it to be like that, I thought it would be....i dunno....in harder cardboxes perhaps? But neway, it's good now that you have a good collection. I like the pink box.
