Irwin 2000 Super Sailor Moon doll arrives!

So, awhile ago I was very lucky and I was able to purchase a Super Sailor Moon doll! I payed $80 for her, including several other dolls. When I got them, they were pretty dirty - it looked like they might have been lightly played with at some point, and then set somewhere where they got kind of dusty. So, I ended up cleaning them all up. First I started with my two Mercury dolls, Tuxedo Mask, and Sailor Venus!

Four of the dolls in the "sauna" to to speak - soaking in some soap before they would get some conditioner and washed off!

I feel like Sailor Mercury really never gets any love. It doesn't help that her dolls tend to have really weird hair - both the 90s and 2000s Irwin dolls in particular, and especially the Mercury on the left in comparison to the one next to her. 

So many bald spots! 

I decided to finish those four up, clean off their clothes - the clothing, as it turned out, did have a fair amount of stuff on it over the years!

It was a lot darker in person - the flash is on! Yuck!

And then I finally focused on the prize of the lot - Super Sailor Moon!

After cleaning her up and letting her dry, I dressed her back up.

I'd say she cleaned up quite nicely! I also have her wand, but that's not currently displayed with her - once I get her onto display, though, I'll be attaching it with probably some string so she can hold it properly. :)

Unfortunately, when I bought the lot, I intended on keeping Venus - Venus and Jupiter are two of the inner scouts I'm missing! (well, that and the basic Sailor Moon, oddly enough) However, Venus actually has a small nick on her nose - it's a bit difficult to photograph, though. I planned on selling some of the dolls in the lot to recoup some of my money since I don't need them, so maybe I'll be able to buy a Venus in better condition with the money. 

That's it for now, I'm signing out!
