Back in '95 Sailormoon or Sailor Moon as she's referred to in the US
first aired on American TV. And with it we got a collection of dolls
produced by both Bandai and Irwin of Canada. And it's no secret
that these were the dregs of the Sailormoon Merchandise World
in particular the Irwin dolls, with no noses, horrible hairdos &
bulky bodies, beyond ugly....these dolls were fug-ugly!!! And so, are
not apart of my collection. However, everyone can learn from their
mistakes, and Irwin redeemed themselves in 2000 with the release of
another set of dolls. Using the Bandai Asia head molds, and updating
the bodies and costumes, Irwin proved they CAN do Sailormoon right!

And even showed they could rival the Japan dolls with the release of
a second wave of dolls in 2001!

(please note that NONE of these dolls are for sale)

Sailor Moon 2000 Dolls
(This set of dolls all feature the same head mold, except for Tuxedo Mask of course.^_^
And Irwin went so far as to pay homage to Sailormoon's roots by including the Japanese writing for "Bishojo Senshi Sailormoon" on the boxes! Dolls are some what bigger than their Japanese counter parts measuring 11 1/2")

Sailor Moon 2001 Dolls
(This time around Irwin gave each doll it's own head mold, very detailed wigs, added the outer scouts including Saturn included their talismans, and produced a Princess Serena doll with such a beautiful face that it may even surpass Japan's Neo-Queen Serenity Doll. Without a doubt these are some of the BEST Sailormoon dolls out there!
