For those of you who aren't familiar with the Sailor Moon phenomenon, Sailor Moon started out as a Japanese comic book (generally referred to as manga). From there the story of a young girl and her friends who've been gifted with magical powers to save the world was turned into an animated tv show (an anime). The show and comics were extremely successful in Japan, and moved on to win the heart of romantics in Asia, Europe, and eventually, America, where you can currently watch the English dubbed version on Cartoon Network.The character Tuxedo Kamen (known in the US as Tuxedo Mask) is the mysterious male lead who wins Sailor Moon's heart. Although dolls were made for the US market, those dolls had all new molds that failed to capture the style and beauty of the original molds. This doll was manufactured by Bandai Japan in 1995, which is about how long I've been wishing I had him! If you're interested in acquiring Japanese Sailor Moon dolls, the best way I've found is to constantly stay on the lookout. Since these dolls are no longer in production, you just have to get lucky... or be willing to pay more than retail on eBay.
