SabanMoon Sailor Moon Artwork

Cutiebunny · Oct 21, 2012

For those of you who have been looking to see some artwork from the DiC/Saban Sailor Moon production that wasn't taken from a messed up angle at an old anime convention, it looks like some might be coming out of the woodwork -

Love that Saban SM looks kinda like She-Ra.

The listing calls it "DiC Concept Art", which is obviously incorrect ("Saban Moon" was the work of ToonMakers).

That design does look a lot like She-Ra, and much more simply drawn than Toei's Sailor Moon.

^I think the DIC reference is because the show was originally distributed by DiC.

Great find. :cool:

She-Ra still looks cooler, tho. lol

Those boots are hideous.

I wonder why they chose to get rid of the odangos and the ribbon.

Maybe both look too kiddy?

Sabrblade · Oct 22, 2012

Yeah, that's totally what a "16-year-old girl" looks like.

At least she doesn't look as old as She-Ra. P-:

Looks like the same seller has added some cels of "Lunamis"...

This whole thing just begs me to bust into the SabanMoon theme song. "Say-lor...Say-lor Muuun!"

I'll hope we'll finally be able to answer the question of which Sailor Senshi was the cripple for the SabanMoon version. I'm hoping it's Venus!

Good finds. Atleast now people can stop arguing over which senshi is which in that video.

Amazing find! I'd love to pick a few of these up but some of these prices are just way too high. If they don't sell for these prices I hope they get relisted for some more reasonable prices.

Regardless these are some very nice clean images of this art that we haven't seen before. I will have to update my avatar!

Well I bought a Luna cel...

Oh no now I just bought the 4 face set...

Curious as to what else this guy has.

I showed these to my friend and she laughed at Jupiter's bright pink lips.

Sabrblade · Oct 22, 2012

Looking at these, it's Mercury who looks to be the most "perky" of the group (rather than Moon or Venus).

WeirdRaptor · Oct 22, 2012

It all looks like bad deviantART fan art.

Memento · Oct 22, 2012

Can someone post the pictures of the other Sailors?

DREWdesu · Oct 22, 2012

The pics are here

So it seems that Sailor Mercury was the one in the wheelchair.

Yup. But since the cat's white, hence the joke about it being "Lunamis" (you knows...Luna+ Artemis = Lunamis).

Kinda thought that was an obvious statement, but oh wells...apparently not for some people.
