New Series in NZ!
I was Kinder Surprised today, but not by an unexpected parcel this time. Went shopping for Kinder Surprises at my local supermarket and was blown away to discover K03 toys in a couple of them! So far this year, we have been getting K01 toys with mostly Argentine papers, and I was under the impression our next series would be K02 toys with Argentine papers. Canada has started getting these K02 toys, and in recent years, New Zealand has been following Canada's lead. But now it looks like we're going to follow on the heels of Queensland, which has been getting K03 toys with Magicodes for months. I wonder if the rest of Australia is going to start getting K03 toys in their eggs as well?

In light of this major development, I have updated the Current Kinder Surprise Situation in NZ page. Have also added two new K03 toys to the K03 page in the Personal Kinder Surprise Collection section.

I have a lot of gaps in my K03 collection, so am thrilled that this series has come to NZ, although a little disappointed that we look set to miss out on the K02 series as we did the K98 series. Still, I think that overall the arrival of the K03 series and Magicodes is great news for NZ collectors, continuing a wonderful year that is more than making up for the previous two or three years, which were extremely forgettable!

That's all for now. But it certainly has been an exciting day - I still can't quite believe it! Until next time, may your next surprise be a Kinder Surprise.
