Cardcaptor Sakura Movic Kero Face Cushion

Here's a close-up of the #Cardcaptorsakura #Kero cushion from #Movic.

A while ago last year, Movic released a rather large Kero cushion. It is rather large at 45x45cm (17.1x17.1") but it is only of his face. His face looks pretty cute though.

You can't really see but he is made out of really nice soft fabric. If you're familiar with plush toys, it is that really soft, velvety material that some toys are made out of.

As a size comparison, here is an average sized ball point pen.

It's fairly thin so you can sit on his face comfortably.

You're supposed to sit on his face (he's a cushion after all) but you kind of have to position it so that his ears aren't in the way of your legs.

But other than that, he makes a fantastic couch buddy for Cardcaptor Sakura fans :)

Premium Bandai Cardcaptor Sakura and Kero Charms

Premium #Bandai have released some nice #CardcaptorSakura stuff which I ordered way back. Here are the wand charms and #Kero charms that I received recently!

My favorite thing about these is that they are made out of metal instead of plastic so they are moderately weighty and quite durable. I'm a huge Kero fan so I was very happy with the Kero charm.

 The Kero charm comes with him and the back and front of the Clow card book. The colored bits in the circle around him are supposedly stained glass but they are so small, I can't really tell.

 As you can see, both the Kero and wand charms are on the short side which was a bit disappointing. If you have a thin wrist, you could probably wear the Kero one as a bracelet but the size makes it a too unwieldy except maybe for cosplay purposes? The wand charms are longer, just not long enough for a necklace but much too long for a bracelet. They're a funny length to be honest.

If you're wondering, they are meant to hang from your (hand) bag, around the handles which the wand charms can do quite well. The Kero charm is a bit short for that too. Maybe I just need to use another bag?

The clasps are fairly sturdy, with the Kero one being much stronger than the wand ones.

The clasps are not too shabby but I personally can't see anyone walking around with these on their bags outside of Japan since they would be a prime "snatch me!" target.

Since I never got the chance to get nice Cardcaptor Sakura merchandise, these were a nice surprise when they were announced. They're a nice little something to have and it doesn't really scream anime unless someone knew where they came from.
