The Premium Bandai website is offering an engagement ring inspired by Mamoru's actual gift to Usagi in Sailor Moon. Mamoru's engagement ring is available in two varieties: platinum and silver.
The center stone is made of synthetic corundum. In the platinum ring, the side stones are diamonds, and in the silver ring, the side stones are white topaz. The inside of the ring band has a "Mamoru to Usagi" (Mamoru and Usagi) engraving, and the inside of the lid of the ring's heart-shaped box has the text "Let's get married, Usa."
The platinum version of the ring costs 162,000 yen (about US$1,500), and the silver version costs 28,080 yen (about US$260). Premium Bandai began accepting pre-orders on Thursday, and the pre-order period will close on July 1. Orders are slated to ship in August.
After getting engaged with a Sailor Moon ring, fans can also finalize their vows with themed marriage registration forms.
