5 Neat Things to Pre-Order This Week (Oct. 16)
posted on by Bamboo Dong
1. 20th Anniversary Special Sailor Moon Smartphone and iPad Mini Cases
I guess this isn't so much of a pre-order as it is a constant backorder due to high demand. These sweet smartphone cases come in five different Sailor Moon-themed designs, and are available for all models of the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4, the Xperia A, and the Galaxy S4. For tablet users, they're also available for the iPad mini. They certainly look better than my clunky black case, that's for sure.
The iPhone cases (for either 5/5s or 5c) can be had for 2,100 ($21) yen, while the iPad mini cases can be bought for 3,676 ($37) yen.
2. Tiger & Bunny Barnaby Brooks Jr. Computer Glasses
Is all that computer work getting you down? Are all those long hours of gaming causing eye fatigue and headaches? Now you can reduce some of that eyestrain with these Tiger & Bunny computer glasses... and look like Barnaby Brooks Jr. doing it.
These glasses are selling for 19,000 yen (~$192) with an expected ship date of December 2013.
3. Sailor Moon Transformation Compact Set
Earlier this year, Premium Bandai released this "Sailor Moon R Moon Miracle Romance Shining Powder" foundation compact, but at $40, it was no trivial purchase.
Luckily, they also made smaller versions to stock inside gashapon machines. Now you can order the full set of five for about $22. The photo shown depicts the pre-painted prototypes, but the actual set is painted and ready to go.
Yeah! Eva buckets! For all your bucket needs!
You can even put them on chairs!
These 10 L buckets are undoubtedly useful, but whether or not you reaaaaaaaaaaaally need an Evangelion-themed bucket... Well, that's up to you to decide. I'm still on the fence about these, but I have to admit the design is tantalizingly simple and cool.
Each bucket will run you 2,310 yen ($23), which is more than anyone should ever spend on a bucket, but these are Eva buckets... Fortunately, you have until November to make up your mind.
5. Kantai Collection ~Kan Colle~ Deck Scarf
Warm yourself up this winter with these Kan Colle scarves, each sporting the deck layout of one of the aircraft carriers. Available scarves include Akagi, Junyo, Hiyo, Ryujo, and Kaga. They can be bought for ~1,320 yen ($13) and are expected to ship in late-December.
