Sailor Moon S.H.Figuarts: Sailor Scouts Animation Color Edition Figure Unboxing Photo Review

“I am Sailor Moon, champion of justice!"
Yes, you are Usagi. All you beautiful scouts are the champion of justice to the 90s anime fans. Bandai is releasing anime color-accurate versions of their previous sold S.H.Figurats figure. Now, this is the same sculpt they've used in 2013~2014 but surprisingly the newly painted figures pop very well. If you missed the chance to collect your Sailor Scouts, this is your chance!
Moon, Mercury, Mars, Venus, and Jupiter are here to kick Queen Beryl's evil deed!

Actually, these have lots of differences from the older versions, mostly related to the colors. The new skin is more warm and 'fleshy,' as the older models have more pale, yellowish skin. The clothing is now very mat on the new models, much less glossy than before, and the shades of colors are quite different (for example Moon's boots are now almost magenta, as before they were more red). The details are all much more refined, such as the stripes on the collars. The elbow and knee joints seem the same, but their 'private' areas are much improved and refined, and the under-skirt leg sockets are a new style. And the hands now connect to little balls, rather than those dangerously thin 'sticks' on the original figures. And the stands have different logos. Maybe a few other things? If you are total Sailor-Moon-crazy, you should get all the new ones. And the hair colors are different, most noticeably on Sailor Moon. Version 1, she has very yellow hair; version 2 has more golden, orangey colored hair. Mars' hair looks blacker (was a bit blueish before). Honestly, I have only older versions here, but have seen the new versions at the store, and on other videos; my new Mars has not arrived yet. But most of the above is probably rather correct...?

[@toyboxphoto6485]

Yes, majority of the changes are the colouring and texture appearance but I didn’t know about the joints. Thank you for sharing. I really do hope they won’t release a new mold in the next 3 years since that will make me cry but looking forward for the Uranus 😃 I was only planning to get her and Neptune but my blog is exploding with sailormoon fans so I might need to get all 5 and review them. By the way since sailor scouts and warriors are all named after a planet (and for some reason the main protagonist is not a planet but a moon), is there sailor earth in any of the series?

[@anthonysandoval5512]

I agree when collecting figures of a team of characters it makes sense to get the whole team and not just one. Power rangers and sailor moon are perfect examples of this in my opinion

[@toyboxphoto6485]

Yes, and it’s sometime cost heavy for us too! But having just one or two doesn’t make much sense. Like pokemon says, catch them all!

[@dennischen8887]

Wait until you get to the sentinel ronin warrior figures. They’re like $150 or more for 1! Almost a grand for the entire team is crazy. With these sailor moon figures, I get them at the official tamashii store for around $30 a pop, so these are not too bad.

[@anthony_costello_34]

I just ordered them on Amazon so freaking amazing

[@dreamboxcollectibles73]

These new packaging are awesome!! Originally I have no plans on getting them as I have the original sets, but these packaging are hard go resist! Thank you for this video. I'll support your channel too. Subscribed.

My favorite sailor moon character is sailor moon because she is cute and a cry baby and she is the leader

[@minfromphilippines1837]

I got sailor moon, sailor Mercury and sailor Venus

[@toyboxphoto6485]

That is completely understandable and I think a lot of people loves her for that. She is the most popular of all the sailor scouts for sure. I do prefer mercury but I think she’s the least popular? 😂 the great thing is that there’s always a character for everyone to love

[@minfromphilippines1837]

@@toyboxphoto6485 thank you

[@pyonpyon5302]

my fav character is sailor venus

[@toyboxphoto6485]

She’s awesome and cute too!

Todas juntas 😍😍 que belleza

[@tigrenoir17]

Finally someone who show the figure can stand by themselves. I'm discovering Sailor Moon, I fall in love with the characters (especially Jupiter and Mercury). I want to buy some extra stuff, like poster, but I didn't planned to buy figures. But doing photography during my free time, I imagined several way to stage the figures on photos. Now I have a good idea of the quality of the figures, I think it's time to make a big hole into the bank account 😄 Just, what are the height of the Jupiter's figures ? It will be useful to prepare one of my idea.

[@toyboxphoto6485]

Jupiter is definitely a great character! And Mercury would be my best choice of sailor scout waifu! Regarding the Jupiter height, me get back to you as I am away from my figures at the moment :) Happy collecting my friend :)

[@tigrenoir17]

@@toyboxphoto6485 my waifu will be Jupiter. I really fall in love of her and I even accepted she fall in love too easily. At first I thought it was a fault, but now I watched enought episode to understand how the dream of a beautiful romance is important for her, so I put in perspective this. But clearly, Mercury is the best Sailor of the team, I can't deny it. Thanks in advance for the information.

[@toyboxphoto6485]

Sorry for the late answer, Jupiter is 7.5” up to the top of her ponytail but she’s actually 7” without that. Mercury and everybody else are around 6” :) Hope it helped :D

[@tigrenoir17]

@@toyboxphoto6485 well a bit taller than I thought. I'm doing photography, so I imagined several scenario to stage the figure and take some creative photos. For several case I imagined using cube LED lamp, to make a colored background or to stand the figure against them. Tiny model are cheap but bigger one are quite more expensive. I'll need to budget this, It may take longer than I expected 😄 Thank you for the informations

[@toyboxphoto6485]

Let me know once you’ve post them or made a video about your photos. Love to see them :)

Where Pluto at ??

[@Kuromichi08]

These aren’t the older versions if I’m not mistake..? These are quite new

[@toyboxphoto6485]

These were released not so long ago but they are using exactly the same molds used very long time ago (2013) and that’s why a lot of us were expecting a brand new figures rather than a simple repaint. Especially when Bandai only needs to make one new body mold for the entirety of the sailor scouts which is easy yet profitable. And the movie just came so those who bought this repaint versions will be disappointed if Bandai does a screw attack and make a new mold anytime soon. But since Bandai isn’t like hasbro, I am sure they won’t release any new molds for another 5 years or so. Btw, even when the figure is dated, it’s still a nice figure. And I do like the new repaint as the colour pops more :)

[@nerdymisc3402]

@@toyboxphoto6485 I gotta point out these are marketed as “anime color” which is literally indicative of a repaint release. Why people expected updated/newer figures? Idk 🤷‍♂️ But if people missed the first release. This release is their chance to get these characters

I'm just waiting for the figurearts Eternal Sailor Moon to be released and then my collection will be complete And the Black cat is Luna and the white is Artemis

[@toyboxphoto6485]

Hi, sorry for godly late reply. Me too! Not sure why it’s taking so long for bandai

[@user-vj6zq3uf3e]

Nice review. Will you purchase uranus and neptune? They re-release them as well

[@toyboxphoto6485]

Uranus is my favourite but I don’t know... may be depends on the video popularity because I literally have almost a thousand figures and i really am losing space 😂

[@lovethisscent5716]

i arrady have neptune! she is so gorgeous! ❤️

[@harryheap6847]

do they have color editions of the rest of the sailor scouts or just the 5?

[@Spriggangirl]

Yes, they do have the Animation Color Edition of the Outer Senshi; in the same way for the five Inner Senshi. I'm almost finished with my Sailor Moon Animation Color Edition collection,... But, I'm not sure how I'm going to find the Sailor Mars Anime Color version; since I have the Original version of Mars.
