Made of soft vinyl, as indicated in the eBay title, it features a matte finish with some slightly glossy areas. The graphic style is faithful to the retro aesthetic of 90s merchandise, with a disproportionately large head, large oval eyes, and a heart-shaped red mouth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the visible side, the figurine has bright yellow hair, adorned with two red \"macarons\" at the base of each \"pigtail,\" characteristic details of the character. A small red jewel is also painted on the forehead. Sailor Moon's outfit is recognizable by her stylized sailor uniform, consisting of a red bow tie with a pink circle in the center, a dark blue skirt, and white gloves. Red boots, with white trim and yellow accents, are also visible. The figurine adopts a dynamic pose, with raised fists, evoking the character's combative attitude.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface shows some signs of wear and small visible marks, mainly on the gloves and the lower part of the face, typical of a handled old toy.
