The problem with Sailor Moon glassware is that I'm always nervous about breaking it. What if it gets knocked out of the cabinet when I'm reaching for something? What if a heavy pot slides and crushes it while it's on the dish drying rack? Gah!
This month has been a dolls month. I ended up getting 4 new rare boxed dolls, mostly of Chibimoon. Even though Chibimoon isn't one of my favorite characters, I inevitably end up with lots of Chibimoon items because they're so pretty. I got really lucky, and was able to buy all four of these dolls for a total of $155 shipped! I got them everywhere from eBay to DeviantArt.
Sailormoon World Chibiusa: I already had a loose Time Key, so I was pretty happy to find this doll completely intact but missing her Time Key. It's ~destiny~
Henshin Super Sailor Chibimoon: I'm planning to refurbish this doll somewhat . She's missing a lot of pieces, so I've been trying to find/recreate what she's missing and put everything back together in the box correctly. I actually think it's a lot of fun fixing up dolls like this; even if I had a bunch of extra money and could hypothetically buy all the MIB dolls I wanted, I think I'd still want some of these dolls to fix up as side projects.
Irwin Super Sailor Moon: I'm trying to collect about half of the Irwin pretty face dolls in the yellow boxes, and this is my second addition. She's mint in box, and the seller asked me very nicely to not post pictures where she'd see them if I de-boxed her! Luckily, even though I don't mind if my items are MIB or not, I just don't have the heart to de-box items that come intact. The packaging is a big part of the aesthetic appeal anyway.
I also just wanted to remind everyone to follow me on Twitter! I update fairly regularly with chatter about Sailor Moon items.

Can u post the sellers? I don't trust ebay and like knowing other Moonies bought from a seller
Hi Hi!
If you don't mind, what keywords/search options do you use to find items on Devart?
cheers, oni chan
PrettyNeko - I got the SuperS doll on ebay from seller "mysuneyedgirl". But you can see all the people I've bought from here: http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=ossmaimee&ftab=FeedbackAsBuyer
Leonie - I got really lucky and found it on the #SailorMoonCollection group (http://sailormooncollection.deviantart.com/). It wasn't even listed as a sale, just as someones collection. So now I search for "sailor moon sale," but so far, 98% of what turns up is peoples collection with the words "NOT for sale" in the description...
Ommmggg I want those glasses!!
I have the insert card that comes with the Bandai Asia Super Chibi-Moon if you want to do a small trade or something. : )
Travis - that would be awesome!! What sort of things are you looking for? Most of my trade items are here: http://fabulouslylazy.livejournal.com/66433.html
But I might have some other stuff too depending on what you're looking for.
Great adds! What a lucky find with the time key, hehe. I'm jealous of your pretty Chibiusa dolls, I need some more :P
