Although I usually list the replicas I create on Yahoo Auctions or Mercari, I can also produce items featured in the Product Catalog upon request, even if they are not currently listed.

The smoothest way to contact me is by following my account on X or Facebook and sending a direct message (DM).

Payment can be made via PayPal, and I can ship directly using EMS without the need for any auction proxy services.

I have confirmed several scam websites that are using my product photos and descriptions without permission. These sites often feature unnatural Japanese text, suspicious design, and list products at around half the normal price. Please be aware that anything sold outside of Yahoo Auctions, Mercari, and this website is a scam. Do not make any payments or transfers under any circumstances.
