A Taste of Animethon and Januarys Haul

| MoonFigures

A Taste of Animethon was this weekend, and boy was it GREAT! I had a table in the Artist Alley that sadly didn’t do as well as I had hoped it would, but you win some you lose some. Guess it’s time to retire some prints, and create new ones!

I’m currently running a Valentines Day sale in my shop until February 14th! Get 50% off purchases until Feb 14th by typing in BEMINE1 in the coupon section of the checkout process.

Along with my table I also ran a Sailor Moon panel on Saturday night. I covered merchandise announced between my last panel in August, and now. Surprisingly that only took 40 minutes, despite the details I pointed out, questions, conversations, and my overwhelming amount of “Uhms”. When I get the footage from my friend I’ll be sure to post it here.

AToA never hurt my pocket too much though. I only picked up 1 print, 3 buttons, and a custom Digimon crest necklace (photos below). But I also received some free art and birthday presents from friends.  That was really cool.

I’m a little bias when it comes to my opinion of Animethon. It was my first convention, I’ve been attending as a patron and Artist in their Artist Alley for roughly a decade, and I even ran their Artist Alley for a year… but overall I think AToA was a great event, and I can’t wait for their main event in August. It has a wonderful community vibe to it, and everyone from the staff, to the vendors, to the artist alley are friends. Competition is rough, but everyone seems to care about everyone’s welfare in the end.

And yes. My birthday was January 16th. I turned the ripe old age of 25, and I’m a little horrified by that… but it has to happen. I celebrated with a few close friends at Boston Pizza, and then a walk through of the Harry Potter Exhibit which is currently showing in my city. My BFF and her husband bought me Hermione’s wand as a gift, and I picked up a Raven Claw pen ❤

Sorry I have no photos of the exhibit. You weren’t allowed to take any photos.

The details in the pen and wand are amazing. Sadly I wanted Sirius’ wand, but they didn’t have one for sale at the event.

On to the loots!

The Infinity figures! I haven’t decided how to play this game yet. I own only a Wii, but I’ve heard the play is different on each system… so I’m considering maybe a PS3 so I can also play the new KH games. Have any of you played Infinity yet? Is it worth buying for the Wii?

I’ll be posting up a new review this week! I have LOTS of pictures of everything here… just need the time to edit and get them up.

Have a wonderful week!

Otafest 2011

| MoonFigures

Hey guys!

Otafest was this weekend. Russ and I only went for Saturday since we really didn’t plan on going at all. Last minute he decided he wanted autographs ^^0 This is my haul from the dealers. Unfortunately the three figurines are bootlegs, as are the small plastic Sailor Moon key chains. I didn’t know until I had bought them, drove home to Edmonton and looked them up on Myfigurinecollection.net.

Asuka and Rei were a total of $70
Shinku was $55
Mini Sailor Moon plush were $70
Key chains were $30 (Mercury and Mini Moon are missing from photo)
The Sailor Moon fan art was $20. There’s an Ariel poster in the bag as well that was also $20.

Does anyone know who the artist of the fanart is? I was at her table but never got her username on DA. Her art is amazing.

Overall Otafest was fun. We really only went to see Synaptic Chaos Theater. I highly suggest them. They’re fricken hilarious. If you use to see the 404’s and wondered what happened to the members SCT is the name of the new group they’ve formed.

Since those figurines are bootlegs I think I’ll make custom bases for them. Anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking about making a small cafe diorama for the Evangelion girls. Now I’m not so sure. I’m watching the series for the first time and I don’t think these outfits suit their personalities.

Animethon 17 Con Haul

| MoonFigures
Merch from Athon 17

So Animethon 17 ended a week ago, but due to my incredible ability to be lazy… I’m updating now =D

Regardless of the photograph, Animethon wasn’t packed with Sailor Moon goodness this year. In fact,  I believe I’ve cleaned out their merchandise. Anime Hypercubed had a full set of Japanese manga for sale for $100, but I’m not sure I’d pay that, nor was it any good to me considering I can’t read Japanese.  It was a strange weekend for merch though. No one was carrying the new bootleg plushies that turned up at Otafest, nor were they carrying the cat hats, or cat plushies. I at least expected to find the new Artemis bootleg plush.

Anyways! My haul this year!

-Set of Shugo Chara figurines (2x Utau, 2x Ikuto, 1x Amu, 1x Yaya). Heads are interchangeable, as are arms. Paid $25 😀 That was amazing. These things are stupid expensive.
-Utau key chain as  Seraphic Charm. Paid $5

-Shugo Chara metal key chain $5
-Shugo Chara coin purses. Paid $12 each (Amu, Ran, Miki, Su, Dai)
-Sailor Moon Stickers $1/sheet
-Dark Lady Plush + LunaP Paid: Print trade with Zephyr.
-Sailor Moon plushie, Paid $30 (this is actually from AE last year. A friend of mine FINALLY dropped it off D=)
-Mars plushie came with Moon. Not sure if she’s mine yet lol.
-Rozen Maiden plush – gift from Fiancee ❤
-L33t Str33t boys CD + other autographs are fiancees and I have no idea lol.

The makeup in the picture came from Pomme Minerals. She’s a friend of mine, and a brilliant creator of make-up. In fact, her product is all I’ve worn since she sent me samples.

The Sailor Mercury key chain is from Sidewayslogic, who has also made several of the buttons I purchased in previous years.

And of course, none of this is updated yet because I’m STILL going through Animethon pictures that I promised a week ago.
