What's the difference. I remember when they were still selling them at my Local Wal-Mart that they came in the blue case but now I'm looking at rebuying some and keeping them in the boxes. But it looks to me they're are two different types ones in a yellow box and ones in a blue box. Whats the difference, visually they're is none. Please let me know if you know.

Yellow Box (One I'm going to get)

Blue Box (One I already have)

But then I noticed they're were limited editions of Super Sailor Moon and Sailor Saturn. They apparently only come in the yellow boxes. So where are the yellow boxes from??

Are the yellow boxes harder to find than the blue ones. (I'd rather get the more common ones) I'm so confused, if anyone could give some insight it would help me out.

Thanks in Advance,

The different boxes are from different stores. The only difference is packaging. As for collectability I don't know if there is a difference between the value of the blue and the yellow boxes.

I have the Saturn doll but I didn't know there was a Super Sailor Moon doll.

Yeah, thanks for the heads up. I want a matching set but I'm just concerned that if I start getting the ones in the yellow boxes and then turn around to see the entire set in the blue boxes for cheaper I might have set myself up for a harder time trying to get the more elusive ones.

Exactly. And after looking at these dolls a good 10 minutes (yes, I did it straight through!) , I can easly say that these are the worst designed Sailor Moon dolls EVER. They look cheap, their eyes are too big, heads too roundy, and sailor saturn even looks different.

But I'll give them credit for doing Super Sailor Moon.

If you think these are the worst Sailor Moon dolls ever then you obviously haven't looked at the earlier English set of dolls.

The dolls in these pictures are cuter in real life then in photos though.

I see. I remember the Ban Dai ones too!! I even remember the piss-poor commercial too!! But there was also one for these recent dolls that were just as bad.

Poor PSSM, it's as I always said....it's the most disrespected japanese property in america.

I already have them all. UsagiMad MercuryAttack MarsAttack JupiterBlush VenusPose PlutoAttack UranusPose NeptuneWin ChibiMoonWin They're on display on the shelf above my computer. I'll post a picture tomorrow. They look very cute. But I don't have their boxes anymore so I'm hoping to rebuy them all eventually and keep them in the boxes. That's why I was wondering which ones were easier to find. I also just ordered the Live Action transformation bracelet and Sailor Venus live action hair bow all in original packaging. Finally my collection is getting off the ground. I'll post some pictures tomorrow.

I think I've owned the most Sailor Moon dolls out of anyone here...
I was looking to collect the entire set of Inner Soldiers, but I only got up to Mars before I lost their accessories...

I've never actually owned Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, or Chibimoon, but my friend has owned Jupiter and Chibimoon, and I've seen Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto at a local Walmart before. Anyway, in total, I've owned...

- The ugly BanDai dolls; Moon only, and both types of "Adventure Dolls"(Regular "Adventure" Moon was the correct shoes version)
- About 6 Irwin Moon dolls; 5 the "Deluxe Adventure Doll", and the other a regular "Adventure Doll". Why so many? Cuz I kept breaking her Tiara doing "Moon Tiara Action" =(
- 2 Irwin Mercury dolls; One "Deluxe", the other regular.
- 2 Irwin Mars dolls; Same two as Mercury.
- 2 Irwin Venus dolls; Same two as Mars, "Deluxe" currently owned.

That's... *counts* 14. And I only own one currently. 0_o

Oh Really, I have quite a few. All of the north american produced ones. Yes every single one. But Most of them are being stored away now. The only ones I have out are on Display are the newest adventure ones 2000-2003 and the bed room set. I'll post pictures when I get around to it. i'm currently on Vacation on Marble Mountain in Newfoundland.

So lucky...

It'll be interesting to see your dolls. ......or not interesting. Seeing sailor soldiers looking 1940-ish isn't quite appealing.

Here are the dolls. I've also have Black Lady and Tuxedo Kamen. But once again being stored away. Sorry for the quality of the photos. I'm not a photographer. But they'll do.

I don't have their boxes anymore although I've kept them mint. I miss having the boxes. I figured they would look nicer on display which they do. But it would be nice to have them in the boxes too. So I'm looking to rebuy. I'm going for the yellow boxes now.

PS: Excuse the blurryness of the second photo. And also the Mirrors need to be cleaned. Also I reduced the size of the images for quicker loading times. Someone should start a thread where people can post pictures of their sailor moon collection! UsagiLaugh
