heavenly_pearlY'all might be tired of me showing off my collection, but I can't help it! And I actually got some non-Sailor Moon items for a change.
First off, a rather timely purchase with the announcement that CLAMP is planning a new Card Captor Sakura short story -- two absolutely ADORABLE Sakura figures. The slightly larger one on the left is a Girls Memories figure I bought from the Crunchyroll store, while the smaller one was another one of those annoying Petit Chara blind boxes that I found at Books-a-Million, but this time I didn't mind since of the six figures in the series, five of them were Sakura and all of them were just the cutest, so I was pretty much guaranteed to get one that I wanted. (And I wouldn't have minded the Tomoyo figure either.)
Next up is a purchase I'm REALLY excited about, since there's not a whole lot of Kaleido Star merchandise out there, and even less available from American sellers on eBay, so she was a very lucky find. *squeals* Granted, it's kind of a strange pose (I think it's supposed to be a pose from her famous Golden Phoenix act), and the base is rather scratched up, and I'm not sure why they decided to color the top of the costume blue when the one she wore in the actual show was red...but it's LAYLA FREAKIN' HAMILTON!
Third, I have some Great Entertainment Sailor Moon items that I mainly just bought so that I would qualify for free shipping at the Crunchyroll store -- I also preordered the super-adorable "Let's Go Festival" Petit Chara set featuring Usagi and the gang in kimono -- but two of them are excellent additions for my ever-growing Pluto collection. From left-to-right: a Pluto cellphone charm, a Neo-Queen Serenity, Sailor Moon, and Chibi-Usa keychain, and a Pluto pin button.
And lastly, another eBay find: a Garnet Orb earphone charm, which goes perfectly with my tablet case that I decorated with stickers from the set my sister got me last Christmas.
I have a couple more things coming in soon, but I'll wait to gush about them when they get here!
