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.

Sailor Mercury S. H. Figuarts figure now in colour

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.

Is Bandai working on a Sailor Moon video game for the Nintendo 3DS?

Sailor V video game

A few web sites have posted news about a rumour of a new Sailor Moon video game for the Nintendo 3DS game. I feel that it’s necessary to be specific about just how prelimenary this information really is. All that has happened is that “SAILOR MOON videogame for Wii/Wii U petition“, a Facebook group trying to petition to have a new Sailor Moon game made, made this post on the S.H. Figuarts Facebook page asking them to create a new Sailor Moon game. Their answer was “After the 2013 Anime aired, Bandai Namco games will make it. Probally for 3DS like Inazuma Eleven“. Keep in mind of course that S.H. Figuarts is a line of toys, including the new Sailor Moon figure that Bandai is releasing in August, and that they are not responsible for creating video games. Whether they have inside information about Bandai’s plans to create a 3DS game or that they are simply speculating about the creation of such a game is not clear at this point. When asked for more information they simply stated it was to be announced.

Bandai’s S. H. Figuarts Sailor Mercury figure prototype

Sailor Mercury S. H. Figuarts prototype

We’ve got a new Sailor Mercury figure coming some time soon. A few pictures such as this one from the Sailor Moon German Facebook page, this one tweeted by Fumio Osana, Sailor Moon’s editor, and some seen on Japanese site Seaside Tears 2 show the prototype of Sailor Mercury’s figure. Since this is just a prototype figure there is no colour and it’s pretty unfinished, but it appears alongside Bandai’s existing Sailor Moon S. H. Figuarts figure which will be on sale soon. The tag in front of the figure clearly identifies it to be an S. H. Figuarts figure and that Japanese text reads “Sailor Mercury”. Here’s hoping we get Sailor Mars and other figures following this release!

We will have more information on this figure as it becomes available.

The many faces of Bandai’s new Sailor Moon figure

Sailor Moon S. H. Figuarts - Crying and winking face

A lot of new pictures of the upcoming Sailor Moon S. H. Figuarts figure by Bandai have surfaced. The figure is featured in the June issue of Dengeki Hobby Magazine’s. Sailor Moon Collectibles has been sharing many new pictures of the figure as they come in on their web site and Facebook page.

Bandai's Sailor Moon S. H. Figuarts figure magazine scan

The faces we’ve seen to date include a normal Sailor Moon face, a crying face and a winking face. The normal face is seen with and without a Tiara, but since only three faces are mentioned on the web site that may indicate that the Tiara is removable from the one face, or from all of them. It may come attached to the front piece of hair based on my best guess at how the faces are held in place, but this is just speculation.
