The second Persona 4 themed plush being produced by Atlus finally hit the D-Shop. Like its cousin Izanagi, Jiraiya goes for 2,980 yen, or around $30 USD. His points of interest are the number of shuriken all over his body, as well as his flowing red “hero” scarf.
When I made the last post concerning the Izanagi plush it pained me to show off items which would not be available to those of us in the West. A commenter by the name of “Jay” recommended a service called Celga to me for purchasing Japanese goods from the internet and having them shipped to the states.
I decided to give Celga a try, since such a service would really be great for items like this. I managed to find a set of all the Valkyria Chronicles figures and used Celga to purchase them. I have to say it was a very pleasant experience. Everything went ideally and I would recommend them to anyone interested in purchasing items from any Japanese sites. Hell you can even bid on items on sites like rakuten.
I don’t think I will be purchasing Jiraiya here as the shipping fees from Celga can get a bit steep, but I just thought I would mention it. I know I have some readers out there who will literally throw money at possessions they must acquire so this service would probably be great for them… or horrible. I am not sure.
If anyone has any questions about using Celga let me know and I will try to help!
