Sailor Moon: Wall Scroll: Sailor Uranus Wall Scroll

Note:  Please check the Sales/Trades post to see if this item is for sale/trade.

Price:  $19.38

Normally I don't spend almost $20 on a wall scroll...but I just had to have this one!  Not only is it of my favorite character, but the art is so beautiful!

One day I will buy the matching Sailor Pluto wall scroll....

Sailor Moon: Plush: Sailor Chibi Moon Collection Plush

Note:  Please check the Sales/Trades post to see if this item is for sale/trade.

Price:  2800 yen (~$28)

Now that I've bought the Sailor Moon Collection Plush, I of course have to buy the rest.  I actually bought two of Chibi Moon by accident (and both were from shops that don't offer cancellations), but I haven't received the other one yet.

I don't know how, but Sailor Chibi Moon is cuter than Sailor Moon.  Maybe it's because she's younger and she's supposed to be small and cute.

Keychains: Sailor Moon: Pins and Charms Set

Note:  Please check the Sales/Trades post to see if this item is for sale/trade.

Price:  12530 yen (~$125)

I probably shouldn't have bought this, considering the price, but I did it anyway.  Since it was a Premium Bandai item (and none of the usual places I buy from had them in stock), I had to use CDJapan's service request.

Nonetheless, this is a very nice set of pins and charms.  The box is especially nice, and adds a bit of elegance to the item.  Though if you ask me, some of the charms are way too big to wear (but I don't wear charm bracelets anyway, so what do I know)?  The brooch pins are about the size of a quarter (maybe a little smaller).  Under the gold plate in the middle is a bracelet for the charms.

Sailor Moon: Misc: Cutie Moon Rod Proplica

Price:  $75.99

After buying the Moon Stick Proplica, I of course had to buy this one as well.  I bought this from Circle Red since Amazon wanted $99.99 for it!  Even with shipping, I still spent nearly $20 for this by buying it at Circle Red!  Plus I got it way sooner (as I write this now, Amazon says the Cutie Moon Rod won't be available until January 15th).  Circle Red was the better place to buy from anyway; my box came in pristine condition!

I like the Cutie Moon Rod Proplica about as much as the Moon Stick Proplica.  The colors are just as pretty, and just as life-sized.  The handle doesn't seem to be as sturdy though.  The top of the scepter is very heavy, and it almost feels like it could cause the handle to snap.  Fortunately, I just bought this to have and to display, so it's sitting safely on its stand.  The stand actually holds it very well, even though there's not much of it (I read online that some people were having trouble with the scepter falling off of the stand; I haven't had this problem).

The third of the Sailor Moon Figuarts Zero collection:  Sailor Venus!  I bought this from Circle Red again because, as usual, Circle Red had (and still has) the best price.  I think I like her the best so far.  She seems to be the most in character.

Sailor Moon: Misc: Inners' Pointers Set

I thought I was going to have to find a proxy in order to buy these (since Premium Bandai limited these to 5 per customer, like they usually do with their highly desirable products), but then I found them at Big In Japan.  I'm glad I was able to snatch them before anyone else could from Big In Japan.

The individual pointers seem to be a lot more available than they used to be, but I'm glad I got the box set.  I think this looks nicer than the individual boxes.  Plus it sparkles!

Sailor Moon: Misc: Crystal Mini Puzzle

This puzzle is tiny!  I didn't realize it was going to be so small when I bought it (I didn't read the dimensions on the website, of course)!  The finished puzzle is about 4" x 6", and the pieces are about 1 cm big.  But there's only 150 pieces, so it was pretty quick to solve.

I would have liked to have all of the mini puzzles (which I think was 6 total including this one), but I thought that might be a little expensive.  So I opted for this one that included all of the girls.

I was excited when this puzzle was announced since I love puzzles.  I don't really care for the art (it's never been one of my favorite pictures), but I decided to buy it anyway.

This ended up being an easier puzzle to solve, unlike my GE puzzle.  I thought the black parts were going to be difficult, but there actually weren't a lot of pure black pieces.  Also, unlike my GE puzzle, this one came supplied with glue.  I don't ever plan to use it, but I thought it was kind of neat to include it

Sailor Moon: Misc: Water Globe Set of 6

When I first heard about these water globes, I was intrigued.  I didn't know what they were exactly, but I thought they were cute (especially the holy grail) and went ahead and bought them.  I probably won't ever fill them with water, but I might display them one day (when I have a place to display them).

I love plush, so I bought this as soon as I could (though I really should have bought it elsewhere since JBox is expensive).  It is so cute!  I'm tempted to buy another once since it would be the perfect cushion to cuddle with at night!  Though I'd hate to ruin its cute face by sleeping with it....

Sailor Moon: Posters: Crystal Chara Pos Poster Set

I love posters, so I bought these as soon as they were put up for pre-order!  I thought I was going to have to buy two boxes, but I watched a YouTube video of another set and learned I would get all of the posters.

The posters are actually pretty large for not being full-sized posters.  They're more than 12 inches in length, and probably about 5 inches in width.  I only opened one box since I didn't want to display the posters, but the posters looked very nice.  I'll have to find a nice way to display them in the future.

Sailor Moon: Misc: Transformation Pen Set

Purchased:  September 30, 2014

I thought I wasn't going to be able to buy these because CDJapan wasn't able to be a proxy (this was another Premium Bandai item that was limited to 5 per person).  Fortunately, Big In Japan had some open slots, so I was able to buy it them (though I can't tell if I was overcharged for this or not).

These are a lot bigger than I expected.  The box itself has to be more than 12 inches in length!  Sailor Moon's disguise pen isn't as large as the Moonlight Memories' version, but it's still a nice size (it would actually be nicer to use as an actual pen).  I don't think it lights up, either.

The third set of Sailor Moon Petit! Chara figures:  the school uniform set.  These looked really cute, so I was excited to get them.  Though I must say, I don't care for the Luna figurine.  The face is kind of ugly, if you ask me.  I ended up with set A (open eyes), so now I just need to find a trading partner to get set B (closed/winking eyes).

I wasn't sure if I wanted this "mook," but then I saw pictures of it online and decided I'd get it anyway.  It's sort of like an artbook, but it also includes some pages with the band that sings the opening (Momoiro Clover Z) and the 20th anniversary products that had been released.  It also comes with a DVD, but I'm not really sure what's on it.

I placed my order for this without really knowing what it was (CDJapan didn't post a picture), but I'm glad I did!  This set of Petit Chara! figurines is so cute!  The box is so beautiful and perfect, and I wish all of the Petit Chara! figurines had their own boxes (though they would be much more expensive....).  I also love that I got the whole set without having to find a trading partner.

Along with the Pluto Deco Sticker, I bought a Uranus version as well.  I still think it's too small, but I love it anyway since it features my favorite character.

This is a sticker for a cell phone, and I decided I get it because I love Sailor Pluto.  It's a lot smaller than I thought it would be, but I guess it's about the size it should be (considering it's for a cell phone).

These chopsticks were another limited quantity item (seriously Bandai, it's really annoying when you do that), and I was afraid I wasn't going to get them.  But, like the lip rods, I was able to get them from CDJapan before it was too late.

Sometimes, I really hate Bandai, especially Premium Bandai, and especially when they sell some items in limited quantities.  I really thought I wasn't going to get these, and that I'd have to spend a fortune on an auction website later trying to get them.  Fortunately, CDJapan was able to act as a deputy and buy them (though I did have to spend a pretty penny on EMS shipping).

Now I just need to get the moon stick lip rod to complete the collection.

The sixth of the Sailor Moon Bandai S.H. Figuarts collection:  Sailor Saturn!  I bought two of her because she's such a popular character.  One day she might be worth a lot!  Not that I'd probably ever sell her (unless I really had to), but it'd still be nice to have something worth a lot.
