One of my old friends from anime club just shared this discovery:

It's a pretty good thing I don't wear dresses, because I would probably order like a dozen of these.

Oh god. I could live in that.

I suppose this would be the most relevant thread as a 2014 figure is relatively new, Utena-wise. I just found and opened the Utena prize figure from SEGA, which I had bought a while ago, and the sword arm seems to have the cuff (and down) backwards, making attaching the sword pretty impossible. It looks different from other ones on MyFigureCollection. Is this even possible? It's a statue right? I can't seem to actually get it to move.

I'm not sure exactly where to post this, but I'm guessing this is the best thread.

Upon browsing the S.H.Figuarts Facebook page, there was a recent post asking folks to give feedback for the Black Lady S.H.Figuarts. When translated via Google, it does ask which other Sailor Moon characters fans wants to be turned into figures (Sailor Starlights please! But … why no Sailor Galaxia?!). The form also asked what other series fans would love be part of the S.H.Figuarts family, and some of the options include Magic Knight Rayearth, Powerpuff Girls, The Rose of Versailles, and … Revolutionary Girl Utena.

So if you own and love S.H.Figuarts and want poseable Utena, Anthy and Akio … give your feedback and vote.

More Utena figures are always welcome, right?

Also!  Apparently this month's anime LootCrate has a Utena bento box in it!  This made me squee so hard; I have wanted one for so so long! 

It looks like you can sign up & get the current month's crate as long as the sign up happens by the end of the day today & that you can order some of the past month's crates individually, although I am seeing you can only order back to June at the moment.  So maybe you will be able to order the August box in a couple of months for $30?  I'm not sure since I don't have a subscription.

Just in case, here's the LootCrate link for the anime box: https://www.lootcrate.com/subscription-crates/anime

Or you can get just the bento box individually on Ebay; there are a few of them right now up for cheaper than the cost of getting subscription or buying an individual box.

As soon as I figure out my ring size, I'm ordering!!

Cheap no-one-trying-to-sell-you-shit protip: Go to the jewelry counter at a Marshalls or similar discounted goods outfit--they have ring sizers, and they'll ignore you while you sit there sticking your fingers in holes.

This is how I learned that despite my being a fatass lately, I'm still the smallest ring size generally available for what is uh, going to be the closest I get to wedding rings.

That said, it would be wise to size up a half to one size for the ring, because thick cut rings like this will fit much tighter than the size that will seem the most suitable on a ring sizer thingie with generically thinner bands.

omfg Super Groupies needs to stop
I was too late to buy the shoes they made last time and I have regretted it every day since

To be honest, now that I'm looking at it, it doesn't look like it would be that hard to make! The patch would be the real challenge. Finding the hoodie would be easy enough, and then it's a matter of fabric matching.

Depends on how good you are at sewing, of course. If you're like me, by the time the jumper's finished you'll have wasted so much material on your fuckups that it's cost pretty much the same as the ready made one.

Same, the time and material cost of my attempts would be ridiculous. If someone knows where there's a match for cheap I'd love to hear it, though.

ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN
I hope they make an Anthy one too, that'd be sweet!

1. I can't afford it.

2. I really can't afford it.

3. Ah, hell.

The hardcover release of the manga comes out this Wednesday.

Scroll down the page to find a look! It's gorgeous!

Has anyone actually seen the manga boxset in a shop? My local comic shops don't have it and Amazon UK have pushed back the release date to May 4th.

Oh my god. I am such a sucker for umbrellas.
