Hey, you’ve found us, and thank you for stopping by.
Circle Red® was founded on June 21, 2003, right here in the U.S. What began as a small online retailer focused on anime merchandise has grown into a destination for officially licensed products across Anime, Gaming, Pop Culture, and Superheroes.
One thing has remained the same since day one: every product we offer is officially licensed. What has changed is the range of fandoms we serve and the number of fans we get to share authentic merchandise with.
Our commitment to authenticity has always been at the heart of what we do. It’s so important to us that we put a name to it:
100% Authentic Awesomeness!®
Curious about what that means and why authenticity matters to us? [Learn more about our 100% Authentic Awesomeness!® promise →].
Today, we continue to grow, guided by the same commitment we started with: authentic, officially licensed products fans can trust. We’re proud of how far we’ve come, and we’re even more excited about where we’re headed.
Take a look back at how our website has evolved over the years.
