Even though I don't exactly have the extra cash for Sailor Moon + other anime merchandise...I couldn't pass these up!  They're just so cute!  They are like the Sailor Moon Desk Figures since they don't seem to fit on my glass rims very well.  Apparently I need new glassware with thinner rims.

I was searching for Megahouse items on eBay when I found this listed for only $30.  I immediately put it on my watch list and put my bid on the last day of the auction.  eBay said there was another watcher, so I was afraid I was going to lose this.  Fortunately, no one else bid on it, so I got this for a steal of a price!  I remember it being only $20 on Toys N Joys, so $10 more isn't a bad deal (though it further goes to show that I shouldn't wait to buy figurines--they get expensive once they're no longer mass produced!).

Other than being a little worn, the box is in great shape.  The figurine is in perfect shape, and is quite beautifully made.  I love that it has some interchangeable parts (though I wish that there could be a little more variety).  Overall, I'm quite happy with the purchase!

A dealer had a few buckets full of gashapon balls, and I was fortunate to find this particular figure in one of the buckets.  She's nicely detailed, though I'm not sure what set she comes from.  I don't remember how much she was, but I'm guessing she wasn't more than $3.

I remember buying this set of figurines from SalesmanB2B and thinking that I got a good deal, but now I'm not so sure they're authentic.  They came out of their boxes and the boxes were flat, which I thought was odd.  The boxes also look like they were printed off a cheap printer; the ink is not very dark and it looks very low quality.  If they are actually bootleg, then I unfortunately spent around $40 on them (which was probably about the price of the actual figures).

I accidentally broke the peg on one of Sakura's feet.  She still stands fine on her own, but she's not very stable.  Unfortunately the peg is stuck in her foot, so I can't fix it.

Sakura looks a little funny in this patch, but it may just be a consequence of my camera.  This is not one of my favorite pictures of her, but I liked it enough to buy it anyway (plus I love Sakura).  I don't remember where I bought this or how much I spent on this, but I'm guessing I didn't spend more than $3.

Sakura looks just so darn cute in this patch!  I love the details on it, and she looks particularly cute in her chibified form.  I don't remember where I got this or how much I paid for it, but I'm guessing I didn't spend much more than $3 on it.

Sakura's my favorite character, so I naturally just had to have this figurine.  It was a little expensive at $14, but it was definitely worth the money.  The details on it are very good.

The only figurine I wanted was the one of Sakura, so I ended up buying 5 boxes.  I bought 4 without successfully getting Sakura, so I ended up asking the dealer if I could buy the already opened Sakura figurine.  Fortunately the dealer was nice enough to sell it to me.

Now that I'm older and wiser, I wish I had bought a whole box instead of buying individual boxes.  Then I could have had the whole set.  Oh well.  As the saying goes, "you live and you learn."

Naruto: Plush: Sakura Shippuuden Keychain

This keychain was adorable, so of course I had to have it.  The details on her are very good, too, even though she's quite small.  I don't like most Sakura plushes because her face usually looks weird, but her face is very cute on this keychain.

I don't remember how much I paid for this, but it's on CircleRed for $7.49.  I'm about 90% sure I bought this at an anime convention, so I probably paid at least $7 (probably more like $10, though).  I'm glad I checked my inventory because I was just about to buy this on CircleRed.

I typically don't buy too much Sakura-related merchandise because she usually looks funny/off.  This is one of the few exceptions.  She could still look better (there are many other better pictures out there), but I think she still looks pretty good in this.  I also like the kanji/kana in the background.

I found this wallscroll on SalesmanB2B, and had to have it because it Sakura (who is one of my favorite characters).  Though certainly not one of my favorite pictures of her, this picture is still better than many of the others out there.  The background is also quite pretty.

I believe this is a bootleg wallscroll.  There aren't any logos, trademarks, or copyrights on the wallscroll like on official merchandise.  Also, as you can see from the picture, it is made of a very shiny material.  I've never seen an official wallscroll made out of any kind of fabric that was shiny.  The fabric also doesn't feel as strong/sturdy as the material used in the official wallscrolls.  Nonetheless, it was a great deal and well worth the money.
