Forgive me for saying this but a heart-shaped Sailor Moon cell phone? For me,that's a little too weird to comprehend.

This is possibly the least functional cell phone I've ever seen and stickers aside, it's barely even Sailor Moon themed! I'll take 12 though.
The design is pretty unique and fun but it doesn't look like you could even send or receive texts with it. Or dial phone numbers, for that matter. Unless the thing is hiding a keypad somewhere. |

That is the bossest thing I have ever seen. I want one but I don't even think I could get service on it. Anyone ever used a Japanese cell phone in the U.S?

It's a creative concept I'll give them that. Just wish it had more unique elements to the show other than stickers.

You can't use foreign cell phones in the US without foreign service. Phones are manufactured to be turned on by certain phone companies. I would not be able to take my Verizon phone and have it be turned on by Sprint. This is quite possibly as bad as the $3500 brass and faux pearl crown. |

It's also partly a cell technology thing. Japan uses CDMA. If you're on a GSM carrier, like AT&T or T-Mobile, you REALLY can't use a Japanese phone. TBH, most Japanese use smartphones nowadays. It's getting rare to see a "dumb phone" around, and this Sailor Moon themed phone looks like just a "dumb phone" with a fancy exterior. |

Wait, how can you make calls or text with that thing? It looks fancy and all, but if it's not functional, it's just gonna stay as collectibles.

Nice phone but I wasn't expecting it to be a feature phone because you see quite a few small android devices in general these days. Then again they are still in style among older Japanese.

I hope they came out with a special carrying case for that. I can only imagine that it would be a pain to put that phone in your pocket.
