Thought you all would like seeing these; some older photos of a life-size replica of Clare’s claymore, made & displayed for Jump Festa 2007. It’s a total of 165cm in length, and weighs 7kg! They made lifesize cutouts and used them as references to making it. (I think the guy holding it was an editor for the jump magazine).

It was given to Norihiro Yagi himself afterwards who was at the event; the last photo is a closeup of the sword in his home!

I thought it would be fun to gather up all the Claymore dvds I’ve collected up over time into one photo… it didn’t take long to cause chaos on the floor 😂. I enjoy physical media & collecting claymore things so I own a few releases!

The bottom row are sets from the uk… the rest are from Japan. Four of my limited boxes have sealed dvds & new contents, I didn’t take everything out of them… there is booklets, leaflets, postcards & some metal phone charms inside them, too. I think there’s only two anime disc releases in these places that I don’t have - Japan’s blu-ray box, and the uk’s ‘collectors edition’.

Feel free to comment pictures of your own; I like seeing different releases of things Claymore got! 😊

…it seems she can be a tad forgetful - but I won’t be reporting it to the organization.

Haha, in all seriousness I made this fullsize replica of Teresa’s claymore a while back (with some help) & thought to post some pics here - it usually lives above a door. I made its size to be relative towards Teresa’s canon height (she’s one of the taller characters at 180cm) & kept the colours/shapes closer to the anime design variants as it’s how I was introduced to Claymore 🙂

I finally ended my long hunt for the old claymore calendar! It is one of a few things that I’ve always wanted to own but has just outright eluded me. Probably because they were used, scribbled over & thrown away… but I do like quirky things. It’s in a high quality, and to my surprise I think it arrived in original packaging, too!

I’ve also grabbed two old promotional cards with claymore designs… similarly they often get used & discarded, or lost! They’re prepaid giftcards for books - mine were spent. I’m very much liking the Clare card with a pinkish background on my shelf, hehe 😊. It was originally part of a prize draw for an event. The other one is still in the post… the artwork matches one of my jump square magazines, so when it eventually arrives I have the perfect place for it!

These are super special pieces to me; a storyboard and some scripts! I brought them all over ten years ago and have remained as some of my favorite things!

The storyboard I have is from episode 11 - it was a productional copy used within the studio. It had part of the top of the pages cut off for some reason and is incomplete - the second image is the last page I have… so I own around 2/3rds of it. The two scripts are for episodes 23 & 25, and were used by Kikuko Inoue, voice actress for Miria. Every page with her parts on has folded corners and pencil/pen markings over them! On their back covers it states in Japanese that they should have been returned to the rights holders after their use… I’ll pretend I haven’t noticed that small print lol 😂
