Bandai Japan Announces Tamagotchi Meets Fantasy Version

As predicted Bandai Japan has just officially announced the Tamagotchi Meets Fantasy Version! Sound familiar? Well this one was leaked in April, do we even remember a time before Tamagotchi leaks?

All our fantasies (pun intended) have been confirmed!

First off the two shells are just divine! You’ll be able to choose between the purple or blue shell which feature those beautiful jewels and a rainbow ombre faceplate. Fantasy Meets isn’t all about the looks - you’ll find some changes to the gameplay with various new locations through the Wonderland Picture Book such as Prince Palace, Arabian Night, and Fushigi no Kuni. New characters are Prince Mametchi, Lably Princess, Mero Arabian, Pamp of the Lamp, Yumei Alice, and Kirari Hatta. These are mostly your favorite Tamagotchi’s dressed up in their finest fantasy outfits.

Bandai Japan notes that it is possible to mix super unique characters with this new version that do not appear in other versions, such as Mamecchi who rides on Hakuba, and Takuchi Patchi who jumps out of the lamp!

In the “Mysterious Okuni” where the Trump soldiers live your Tamagotchi might turn either red or black when you meet them!

July 13th is the release date, and preorders should be available soon, if not already. Tamagotchi Fantasy Meets looks super adorable, and a welcomed edition to the lineup! Will you be ordering one?

Japanese Retailers Restricting Tamagotchi Meets Fantasy Version Purchases

The Tamagotchi Meets Fantasy Version has become VERY popular, even before the device was officially announced and is apparently flying off shelves in Japan. Fans are falling in love with the color of the devices, the beautiful reflective faceplates, and the adorable characters and locations too. This had lead to the device selling out continuously in several stores.

To combat the device flying off of shelves, retailers such as AEON, a large retailer in Japan, have restricted the Tamagotchi Meets Fantasy Version purchases to one per customer. This deters people from buying multiple devices and selling them elsewhere at a premium. It also ensures that the device will be on shelves for fans who are actively looking for it!

As the demand goes down, we are sure retailers will remove the restriction.

Bandai Japan Shows Off Fantasy Meets at Tokyo Toy Show

The Tokyo Toy Show just opened to the press yesterday and already we have some images of the Bandai Booth that you’re going to drool over! Bandai Japan announced they would be attending the Tokyo Toy Fair back in early June, and they’ve been attending for many years.

Bandai Japan continues to show off the latest Tamagotchi offerings, and this year was no exception. At the Bandai booth it was all about the Tamagotchi Meets Fantasy Version! You can see in the images below that the booth shows off the history of Tamagotchi starting from 1996 in Japan to the latest Tamagotchi Meets released in 2018. The poster also showcases the award that Bandai Japan has won for the Tamagotchi brand, which is the Japan Toy Grand Award 2019 Special Award.

More importantly the Tamagotchi Meets Fantasy Version had an adorable setup with an awesome poster featuring a larger than life size device showcasing the upcoming characters and locations. The Tamagotchi goodies rested on a counter that was several shades of pink, and matches the fairy theme of the Tamagotchi Meets. There were both Fantasy Meets being shown off, the purple and blue. It’s also important to note that there was in fact a Sanrio Meets there too, which makes sense since the official launch day is right around the corner, June 15th. You can even see the original Tamagotchi meets, both Fairy and Magical in attendance on the acrylic stand. Accessories were in tow too! Bandai Japan brought some lanyards that feature those cute charms. Lastly, there was an iPad mini available for demonstrations of the Tamagotchi Meets application.

Looks like Bandai is super excited about the Fantasy Meets and did a great job showing it off at the 2019 Tokyo Toy Show! What do you think of the setup?
