New Sailor Moon cell phone cases and stickers from Bandai

Posted on June 28, 2013 by Adam

If you have one of the more popular cell phone models you’re in luck. The official Sailor Moon site has announced that Bandai is releasing relatively inexpensive cell phone cases and stickers in Japan. The most recently announced items are a series of nine cell phone case designs for the iPhone (4, 4S and 5), Xperia (Z and A) and Galaxy (SIII and S4). You can buy them from the Bandai Premium site. There are a wide variety of designs available, each priced at 2,100 yen, which is about $21 US.

In addition to these cases some cell phone stickers were announced a short while back. There are a privacy protector and sticker case for the iPhone 5 and some smaller stickers which could be placed on virtually any cell phone. These items are available for pre-order from CD Japan. You can access these from the following links: Sticker case, privacy protector, group sticker, Sailor Moon sticker and Crystal Star Brooch sticker. They are priced anywhere from about $4 to $7 US.

Pre-order options for the new Brooch, Rings, Nail Polish and Sailor Mercury Figure

Posted on June 21, 2013 by Adam

With all of these products coming out soon Sailor Moon fans are all wondering what options they have for purchasing these items in North America. Luckily between online stores YesAsia and J-List a lot of these products are currently up for pre-order.

YesAsia currently has pre-orders up for the Crystal Star Brooch “Sailor Moon R Moon Miracle Romance Shining Powder” as well as the Star Power Stick nail polish “Sailor Moon R Miracle Romance Nail Collection”. J-List has pre-orders available for the Crisis Moon Compact gold and silver rings and Bandai’s new Sailor Mercury S. H. Figuarts figure.

None of these stores are affiliated with ours so we make no guarantees but they are well established online stores that have been operating for years. Since these are import toys you will notice that you are paying a premium price for being able to order any of these.

Gold and silver rings, a wall scroll and a mini towel from Bandai

Posted on June 14, 2013 by Adam

Bandai has announced a bunch of new Sailor Moon items. We have a Sailor Moon Wall Scroll, a Sailor Moon Microfiber Mini Towel and gold plated rings in the style of Super Sailor Moon’s Crisis Moon Compact.

The wall scroll is 51.5×72.8cm (about 20×29″) and is priced at 3150 yen ($33 US). The microfibre mini towel is tiny at 20x20cm (only 8×8″) and sells for 600 yen ($6.30) so don’t expect to be bringing this towel to the beach. Both the wall scroll and towel will be released in July.

The rings are most interesting. They are not toys but real jewellery designed after Sailor Moon’s Crisis Moon Compact which she uses to transform into Super Sailor Moon. Both are made of silver and the gold coloured ring is actually coated in 18k gold. The gem is a pink Swarovski crystal (Swarovski is a brand, not a type of gem) though I understand it lacks any magical properties. The rings are priced at 15,750 yen which is about $166 US. This item will be on sale in August.

Bandai’s S. H. Figuarts Sailor Mercury figure in colour

Posted on June 13, 2013 by Adam

The Sailor Mercury S. H. Figuarts figure has been revealed at Tokyo International Toy Show 2013. We previously only got a look at the grey prototype figure so it’s a real treat to finally see what the completed figure will look like.

Along with this better look at the figure we also get a bit more information about it from the display, none of which is terribly surprising. The price will be 4410 yen, which is about $47 US and it is 140mm (5.5″) tall. This is the exact same price and size of the Sailor Moon S. H. Figuarts figure. The figure will be released in October of this year.

Star Power Stick inspired Sailor Moon nail polish

Posted on June 12, 2013 by Adam

Yet another Sailor Moon make up accessory is now up for pre-order from Bandai and Creer Beaute. The “Sailor Moon R Miracle Romance Nail Collection” is a set of nail polishes that come in bottles that resemble the tops of the Star Power Sticks, the transformation items used in Sailor Moon R. These aren’t as convincing cosplay items as Bandai’s Crystal Star Brooch because the bottles do not resemble the entire items but rather just the tops. Though five of these bottles exist there were only four Star Power Sticks in Sailor Moon R. Sailor Moon transformed with her Crystal Star Brooch but a pink bottle similar to the others is done in Sailor Moon’s style.

This item was announced on the official Sailor Moon site and will be released in October for a price of 5250 yen, which is about $55 US. For now Japanese collectors can pre-order this set from this page, but these pre-orders sell out quickly! There are no sites currently offering this item to international collectors. Pre-orders are being limited to two per purchaser and so other retailers aren’t able to make bulk orders. If this set becomes available through some other means we will be sure to let you know.

“Free Kittens” shirt at TeeFury features Artemis, Luna and Diana

Posted on June 11, 2013 by Adam

Another shirt a day site, TeeFury, has a Sailor Moon inspired t-shirt, or at least one that is partially Sailor Moon inspired. This “Free Kittens” shirt includes a ton of anime cats including Sailor Moon’s own Luna, Artemis and Diana. The shirt is $11 for one day only, June 11th 2013.

Also included on the shirt are, and forgive me if I get any of these wrong, the Cheshire Cat, Kon, Kirara, Meowth, Hello Kitty, Gatomon and four cats that aren’t familiar to me.

The shirt’s artist is ramyb who also runs the t-shirt site Tee Turtle which has a lot of great designs.

Bandai’s Sailor Moon Crystal Star Brooch available for pre-order from J-List

Posted on June 9, 2013 by Adam

June 12th 2013 Update: This item is no longer available on J-List’s store.

The “Sailor Moon R Moon Miracle Romance Shining Powder” compact that Bandai is putting out is hard to come by! Pre-orders sold out almost immediately in Japan. For now the item is available, for a premium, from the online store J-List. This item is being sold for $70, while the Japanese MSRP is the equivalent of $41, so there’s quite a bit of overhead here. I can’t tell you whether or not it’s worth it as only time will tell how hard this item will be to get your hands on through other stores.

We’ll be sure to keep you in the loop if we find any other retailers who have this item available in the future. Japanese collectors will be able to get in on the second round of pre-orders on the 12th using this link.

Bandai’s Sailor Moon Crystal Star Brooch Make Up Compact

Posted on June 6, 2013 by Adam

Bandai has a new toy out that will have you screaming “Moon Crystal Power, Make Up!”. It’s Sailor Moon’s Crystal Star Brooch that she uses to transform in the Sailor Moon R series, but it’s also completely functional with make up included! It’s full convoluted Japanese name which is entirely composed of English words is the “Sailor Moon R Moon Miracle Romance Shining Powder”. The product is made by Japanese company Creer Beaute. The outside of the brooch looks just like it does in the show and the inside even includes an image of the Silver Crystal and other designs seen inside the brooch during Sailor Moon’s transformation sequence.

I’m not a huge make up guy but according to the official site the powder will prevent oily looking skin, has moisturizer included and is a pink glitter colour. Now if you’re caught with glitter on you, the excuse you can give to your jealous spouse can be that you were simply playing with your Sailor Moon toy. But hold that excuse until October when the toy will be released! The toy will be 3980 yen which is about $41 American.

More pictures of the Sailor Mercury S. H. Figuarts figure

Posted on May 23, 2013 by Adam

Some newer better pictures of the Sailor Mercury S. H. Figuarts figure by Bandai have surface! This is still a prototype, so no colour, but we’ve got a much better look at the figure and some of it’s accessories! The first picture can be found at the Sailor Moon Tamashi Nations page. We also get a look at Sailor Mercury’s visor and computer in this second image. You can also see that this figure will have four different swappable faces.

Aside from the missing colour there is a lot of detail in this figure’s design. We hope to see more of it soon!
