Title: $2600 Ryoko Pic!
Post by: جبريل 無道 on December 23, 2017, 11:09:14 AM
So I was browsing the internet today, trying to catch up this year (still haven't watched OAV4 yet besides episode 1 :neg:) when this Masaki Kajishima pic caught my eye.

It was on an auction site last year (http://k.mandarake.co.jp/auction/item/itemInfoJa.html?index=454783), since there was no date on the pic, from the art style I'm guessing it's 1990s.  This started at 100,000 yen and in a frenzy of 36 bids it went up to 290,000!  That's about $2600!  Nuts.

Google images tells me there's absolutely no other places this pic is on the net, so I'm very happy to have caught it before it was taken down :)  Ryoko is dressed rather festive for the Holiday, don't you think?

Congratulations. :)

(That's quite a lot of money though.)

I'd pay even more for it if I had any money!

Thanks for saving the pic! You're a hero!  :worship:

I guess that's money well spent?

I mean, if collecting all TM merchandises through out all years, then how much is that gonna cost?


*look at wallet*

I saw that. Man, that is a beautiful piece of work. Its a one-of-a-kind original piece made by Masaki Kajishima. I certainly would have bid on it if I had known about it back then.

edit: holy crap I found one of Sasami on tumbler (https://www.tumbex.com/tenchisgirls.tumblr/posts?page=5). Might have to scroll a little bit. But it's clearly related. I wonder if he did a whole set, maybe as promotional work?

I think it was promotional different shops had other pieces posted to the front of the store

That's the one I posted in a nother thread. I think I saw a couple of the others floating around on the interwebs. Mihoshi and Sasami iirc.
