Geass contact lenses...

So, I was just browsing through a website that sells theatrical contacts... and I just noticed that they have Geass contacts now! xD Just thought that it'd be cool to mention here... Maybe some cosplayer would like to get some? They're pretty expensive though. ^^;

They also have Naruto lenses... and some other random ones. None-the-less, they're fun to look at! x3 lol Enjoy!

At that price it's probably better and easier to just photoshop the Geass sigil into the cosplayer's eye in photos.

Edit: After some searching around, I found someone selling Geass contacts for $45...in Japan. Hmm, that just might fit under my budget. Oh shoot. I shouldn't buy any more Geass merchandise. >_>

Do you mind linking us there? Some of us would like to keep our options open regarding the acquisition of Geass lenses.

It's here (http://www.cosp.jp/market_info.aspx?id=3982). I'm currently trying to find a guide to contacts to see if I'm suitable to wear one before I plunk down the money for nothing.
If you have time, you should check out the rest of the goods on the marketplace there; it's like a Japanese cosplay.com with people selling secondhand goods for pretty good rates.

Too bad quite a few of us don't know enough Japanese to navigate the site effectively. Still, it's much cheaper than what the other manufacturer is offering; it's obviously worth considering.

Aw, that's too bad. If there's something on the site you'd like translated, just leave me a comment and I'll try my best to provide a translation.

Don't want to be the downer but... cheaper in the world of contact lenses can sometimes be very unsafe for your eyes. If they aren't verified with Japan's equivalent of the FDA, don't buy them. If they don't require a prescription, don't buy them. The ones pictured almost look more plastic than contact lens. Not to discourage, but you have to be careful with what you put in your eye.

but I think the design is less beautiful compared to the the site in the first post
