Hey moonies. The Gashapon Sailor Moon Stick & Rod Set #2 was announced today (I wasn't even aware that there was a Set #2). I honestly think these gashapons are great for those who don't really want the expensive replicas of the sticks/rods. Here are the measurements for the items in the 1st set: Moon Stick (15.5 cm), Cutie Moon Rod (17.5 cm), Sailor Mercury & Mars Transformation Sticks (15 cm).  The 2nd set clearly has the length of each item marked as shown in the image above. As you can see they each come with stands so they can be easily displayed. Each gashapon is 500円 each which is about $5 USD. The first set is to be on sale this upcoming month (November) while the second set goes on sale on February 2015.

The only site where pre-orders for the first set were available was here. They're currently not taking any more orders: http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN990855/Gsh
The only problem with this store is that the 4 gashapon are chosen at random so there's no guaranteed you'll get one of each.

There are currently no sites where you can preorder the 2nd set yet.

Honestly I feel like I might order these gashapons if there will be other sites that have these readily available and that sell the complete sets. Hopefully they make the remaining sticks and rods.

i saw these, they are super cute, well the picture is cute

The only downside to these is that the first set is going for so much for such tiny little things. If things continue however, if there is a set 3 with the eternal tier I will snatch that up in a heartbeat.
