PostSubject: What it's worth? Might sell? Gold star locket/wand   What it's worth? Might sell? Gold star locket/wand I_icon_minitime30th July 2012, 2:54 am

I hope I posted this in the right area. The Sailor Moon bug hit me again
so I visited my Dad's house to get some things out of storage. I almost
forgot I bought a gold star locket and wand back in 2001 when I decided
to make a Sailor Mercury costume.
I tried researching and I found very little :-\
The wand plays sounds effects and lights up. The box says 1992 Naoko
Takeuchi, Sonokong, a sticker that says Diawon, the back says made in
Korea, sonokong.co.kr, and the orginial price tag that says $24.99. I
only took it out of the box to make sure it worked and the batteries
didn't leak (they didn't leak and it works).
Then there's the gold star locket. The back of the box says made in
China with a Hong Kong address 1992. Original price tag at $12.99. The
gold locket wings up and plays a wonderful tune. The gold chain is still
taped in. There's a number 2 under the stars lid. And the backside says
Bandai Asia 1995. Plus some weird asian sticker on the back, I can only
read the numbers, 698861.

The wand looks just like this....http://sailormoontoys.com/asiawand.jpg
The locket, thou the box is different...http://sailormoontoys.com/smlocket1.jpg

If you need pics PM me. I tried so hard to upload them and I was unsuccessful.

Well I found this and if it's true then WOAH. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sailor-Moon-Star-Locket-Bandai-Musical-Toy-Vintage-1992-/260916016694?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cbfce7636#ht_563wt_1165

But if you read the comments on the video here then the star locket is worth approximately 500 dollars or more.

Not sure on the wand but I researched and I'd say it might be 150 dollars or more. Probably more though. I'm not sure.

Yeah, LunaOsa is right about the star locket. They are pretty rare and i think no matter which countries version you have, it will give you a decent amount. I would just try to see if you can make sure they aren't bootleg before selling them. I wish I knew more on telling bootlegs apart, but i'm not that knowledgable in that area. Sad

Thanks so much for all the info and links. I can't believe people would slap such a huge price tag on a locket. And thanks for the bootleg tip. I'm gonna take them to my local anime collectible show this Wed. and see if they can tell. My only worry is I'm gonna spend all my money and come home with more toys Smile lol

The scepter looks bootleg. I'm 90% sure it is but there is still that 10%... hmm .. I could be wrong.

The sceptor could also be another countries version of that toy? It looked Korean.

Actually I didn't read this part... I've heard that if it says two different years on the item and on the box
its bootleg. Hmm did you get both at the same place?
I will keep looking to make sure though Smile

I uploaded some close up photos of the locket. I'll get some close ups of the wand in a sec. I almost hope it is a bootleg so I can keep it Smile Charging $300 seems greedy imo. I only paid $12.99 when I bought it. Oh and yes I bought them together @ the same store. Some anime store in the mall that had 90% sailor moon stuff. I wished I had more money at the time.

The locket, I'm going to say its safe to assume its not boot leg cause it has Bandai's name on it. I'm just thinking its not the one thats made in Japan.

The wand is most likely bootleg as someone stated.

I dunno if i were you I'd keep them. XD

Here's a blog that tells you more about the lockets: http://blog.sailorastera.com/2011/04/starry-sky-orgel-aka-star-locket.html

According the the locket (who I know is a very experience Sailor Moon collector), you have the "Version 5: 1995 Korean Starry Sky Orgel". I have seen these sell at anywhere between $150 to $300. If you are really interested in selling this piece, I would suggest to possibly check other experience Sailor Moon collectors or the SeraSell community to see about what the locket is worth now adays.

You can also ask the SeraSell community to double check if the wand is a bootleg as well. Wands are kinda iffy because there are so many different official versions of the wands. ^^

Hope this helps!

Oh wow, I think you nailed it perfectly. Mine fits the Korean version perfectly. I bought them from the same store plus my wand says made in Korea. This is fantastic info all collectors should know about the locket. Ut oh, now I want the Japanese version.

I think I found the same wand on sailormoontoys.com/rpg.html

"Crescent Wand (Sonokong Asia 2001) (this is sort of a mishmash of other wands, looks like a hybrid between the crescent wand and the spiral heart wand but plays music from the superS wand. it can't quite decide what it wants to be.....hmm, like the starlights, I guess. battery op.)"
http://sailormoontoys.com/asiawand.jpg
Thou I'm still thrown off by the dates. The box and wand say 1992.

I'm sad to part with it and i'll probably regret it later but i'm in the process of getting it on ebay. And I'm gonna start the listing at 12.99 usd w no reserve. More then likely free shipping since it's so small but have insurance either optional or required. I'll post the link as soon as it's up, im a bit slow at this stuff lol.

I called and I missed their business hours by 3 mins arg. Its because I'm a new member and it's a hot item I found out from reading ebay forums.
