JS was giving these away for a bit, so I figure there are a few of us on here that must have some.

Which ones do you have? Share some pictures so we can see what they look like! (Ms. Evelien is curious about them!)

I'm a horrible person- I took mine off of their bases.

Misaki and Hikaru from Angelic Layer as the White rook piece.

Seishiro from X Tokyo Babylon as the black bishop

The reason why I ruined them by taking them off of their bases?
Annica needed some dolls! (Annica is a 1/4 size, so that should give a size reference to anyone who is curious about them.)

I have to admit that they are pretty nice and a fairly decent quality. If I remember correctly the bases were a hard plastic, but the figures are a softer, rubbery plastic. The paint jobs are well done.

I've always wondered about them too, thanks for the great photos.

I remember when they sold these at waldenbooks! (woah that's been a while!) I wanted some so bad, but at $20, I couldn't do it. ;___; haha

I have the first 7 sets. I bought them all at bookstores, didn't get any from JS. Still need the last 5 sets. (I love CLAMP >_<)

I looooove those things, super jealous of everyone who got them in their Junkyspot boxes. xD
I have Seishiro, the Angelic layer chick, Subaru, and Kamui. I reeeaaally want a Fuma.
X and Tokyo Babylon are my favorite CLAMP series, so... That's why.
Still, I'm happy with Seishiro. The figure captures his character SO well, but in a cute way. I love it. Heee.

And ya didn't ruin them, that's a great use for them, they're the perfect size. :3
Especially cause let's face it, most of us will never own the full chess set. (I don't play chess, and I hate a few CLAMP series... Nope! Just those X/Tokyo Babylon cuties for me!)
