I think it's a pretty good time, but I've been looking back on auctions from May-July and it's.. painful how cheaper things were ;_; Luna Pens for half the price they're at now.. too bad I was spending all my money on cosplay.
I know there were two boxes for this doll, one with Super Moon and one with Eternal Moon, but I don't think the actual dolls are different. Since you have both now, did you notice any differences between this and the one in the DX World box set? I have one of these dolls loose and I'm not sure which it is/if there's even a difference! I think this is definitely one of, if not the, most beautiful Sailor Moon dolls! I hope to get her with the box and everything someday too.
Yeah it seems like it's starting to pick up again. It's true there were a lot of good (painful) deals. I was watching the completed listings while I was on my buying hiatus and I cried a lot inside. xD
I got my Luna Pen for about $60. Was that the price you were seeing it at? I am not sure how long ago it was. It has a little light damage on the handle but now I'm such a pro at fixing that :P
I will look at the DX set when I get home, but I think they are the same if not super close. Was the box with ESM on it another actress card? That's mostly what I was curious about (because I want an Anza card >_>)
Really? With the box and everything too? I saw them for like $75 shipped at the cheapest which is about what I would like to pay. I just bought a lot of 2 Luna Pens for $85 shipped, but they don't have boxes and they don't light up apparently. So idk if that is even a good deal, hopefully I can fix one or both.
Yeah it was the European one in the box. I'd still like to get a Japanese one someday but I know it will cost me.
I have some experience with repairing sound but I haven't tried to do any light fixes yet. It could be a short in the board or the bulb could need replacing.
Oh WOW! That box is *SO* much prettier. xD I love the World-style art, too! The card looks like Marina, if I had to guess. But the doll looks the same. I wish I could get a higher res image to see what the second line of squiggly text says
My experience is pretty much just fixing things that are obviously wrong, like loose wires or rust. Everything else I give to my engineer boyfriend XD some of it I could fix myself, but I don't have access to a soldering iron or other tools like he does. Fixing up toys is kind of fun, isn't it?
I would love to have the Luna Pen with the Japanese box, but I'm trying to get back into the RPG Toys so this is a good start anyway ^^
Fixing my Spiral Heart Rod (with some help from my boss) was a VERY rewarding experience :D
The RPG toys are very exciting items to have and my wish list is getting pretty narrow now. I think I might have to start focusing on Japanese dolls next :3
Most likely it's the speaker and you would need soldering to fix it. I have a soldering gun that I've only used in practice. My boss was the one who did the actual soldering for the new speaker on my Spiral Heart rod.
If fab's boyfriend can't take a look at it for you then I'd be happy to try replacing the speaker for you to see if that works. I'm assuming you've already tried replacing the batteries, etc.?
How much did that DX set go for? I know mine was a steal so I'm curious what they are paying in country.
If it's just soldering I can probably get my boyfriend to fix it if he's going to have to work on my Luna pens anyway ^^ Do you mind if I get back to you in a few days after I ask him and look at what's wrong with the pens?
