I took the pics of the chibis that were bundled with each first-press Ouran High School Host Club 桜蘭高校ホスト部 Region 2 DVD ^^
The DVDs were released from the period between 26/07/2006 ~ 21/03/2007. I bought Vols 1~8 from Amazon Japan in 08/2007 and Vol. 9 from HMV Japan when it was released and managed to get all the first-press editions. I think they’re still available from these shops.
The pic shows the chibis in their box packaging. I’ve not taken them out for display cos I think they look really nice inside their boxes that have lovely covers that complement the figures.
The pics to follow will show the chibis in close up shots. The original colours of the figures are not yellowish/bluish and look much nicer than what is shown. Photo-taking lessons needed ^^”

Prices I listed are excluding tax ^^
Total cost of the DVDs was 41744 Yen + around 4600 Yen for shipping o_O
I didn’t want to be reminded of that lol~
Vol 1 was 3344 Yen (Amazon was having a discount) Original price is 3800
All the other DVDs were at 4800 each.
It is possible to get the licensed Region 3 version at about one-third of the price but they don’t come with the chibis.
Hope this helps!
I hope you don’t break mega sweatdrop when u jot down those numbers. XD
Anyway this is the price for “delivered directly by AMAZON JP” nee..
I mean shipping cost can be lower if have relatives in Japan who willing to help.
I also found that 2nd hand DVD can be lot cheaper-forgot the shop’ name but they don’t sell online so not good unless you happened to be visiting there.
In 2006 and 2007, i bought Gackt Platinum Box IV and VI, original price are (w/tax) 6800Y and 7800Y but managed to get those 2 at 3500Y and 4500Y. The bonus + everything is intact.
My sweatdrop was like MEGA MEGA to infinity XD
At that time still very new to buying R2 DVDs and the only online stores I knew were Amazon JP and CDJapan (the first press were all sold out there) :P I wasn’t even sure if Amazon JP has all the first press editions cos they don’t list it clearly, so I took a chance. Luckily all there keke.
Wah… the Gackt stuff you got were almost half the price :O So good!
