Reid: It was no problem at all to take the pictures.

I'm glad everyone enjoyed looking at them.

Yes, I got everything from Ebay.

Cost me a lot too, because most of the stuff (including the RK Memorial Box) were really rare, so the bids went pretty high. However none of these items were as much as my Revolutionary Girl Utena, Anthy Himemiya Cosplay costume. That costume went up to $600.00.......

I didn't know if you guys wanted to see that either, so I didn't take the picture.

But, yeah, I got everything from Ebay because when I'm into a series, I go and try to get all these rare items, so that way, later on, they won't become so rare that they go up much, much higher than what they're worth. For example, the Vash Sunglasses....I got them for $120.00, when they first came out, but now, if you go on Ebay now, they're worth $200.00 or $250.00 or more.

Yeah, so sometimes it's really better to get them right away instead of waiting till they're out of print, because Japan doesn't keep most merchandise for long.
