As a collector and huge fan of older anime like CCS, Sailormoon and Digimon, I feel exceedingly conflicted about these resurgences.

On one hand, I welcome new merchandise, but on the other hand, I'm terrified that companies will begin re-issuing old figures or toys. While it allows fans who weren't able to get a hold of old merchandise to do so, it also devalues the original merchandise and the effort that it took to collect them.

With regard to the Eternal Master Piece line, I'm not sure how to feel about those either. They're only 15 cm long - not long enough to be replicas and not small enough to be key rings or accessories.

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY! Now if they would do the Kero/Yue Fused Star Wand that would be the perfect topper!

Yeah I have to admit it baffles me that they are 15cm long, the size seems so random. Confused

Now that is one impressive wand. Well, it will go well with an elaborate CCS costume.
