The Chibi Project - Sailor Chibi Moon / Tar and Feather

What started out as a suggestion at last year's Chibi Project panel at Anime Boston grew into a full test at this year's panel. Chibi Moon is "tarred" using rubberized driveway crack sealer packaged in a caulking tube. After being covered in black …

The Chibi Project - Chainsaw

Someone donated dolls of all five of the main Sailor Moon characters. Seeing everyone go out and cut down Christmas trees gave us an idea...to use a chainsaw to cut through the dolls rather than a tree. We get assistance from our theme song…

The Chibi Project - Clow Wand

At Anime Boston, one of our fans donated a clow wand from Card Captor Sakura. We knew right away that we wanted to imitate the way Sakura uses her wand...but smash it. We also knew that it would be best done in front of a live audience, so we took …

The Chibi Project - Grillin' Menchi

A few years back, ADV Films started selling a plush toy of Menchi from Excel Saga that came shrinkwrapped to a charcoal grill. It was an in-joke that referenced Menchi being the "emergency food supply" in the show. Of course, when we got our hands …

The Chibi Project - Drop Test

Almost as long as The Chibi Project has been around, people have been asking us to "drop her from a building", "drop her from 50 feet in the sky", or "drop her from [insert high place here]". We've been fairly reluctant to do a drop test since we…

The Chibi Project - Tuxedo Mask / Wire Brush

For the fifth year, The Chibi Project packed a panel room full of crazy fans at Anime Boston. Making her first live appearance, Jekka joined PatrickD as they took a wire brush to Tuxedo Mask from Sailor Moon.

The Chibi Project - Sailor Soldiers / Fresnel Lens

Over ten years ago, PatrickD read a web page from someone who got ahold of a fresnel lens and melted a bunch of things. He claimed he could melt concrete. This sounded like the perfect test for some Sailor Moon dolls we got our hands on. Also, we …

The Chibi Project - Sailor Venus / Potato Cannon

Ever wonder what would happen if you stuck a Sailor Venus doll in a potato cannon? Have you wondered what would happen if you shot potatoes at Sailor Venus? We did. We taped it too and now it's posted on the Internet for all to see. Also, we…

The Chibi Project - Burning Gundam

With 15 experiments on Chibi Moon, The Chibi Project has moved on to conducting tests on other anime toys. The first subject of our experiments? Burning Gundam. With a name like that, he was just asking for it! Also, we feature our first review…

The Chibi Project - Experiments 8-15

This episode features experiments 8 through 15 as The Chibi Project continues to try to destroy a Chibi Moon toy figure. It also features an interview with voice actor Scott McNeil and we answer some viewer mail. This completes coverage of all…
