20th Anniversary V-Pets Wave 2 Pre-Orders! D-1 Returns! & Spoilery Meicoomon Evo Info

If I'm not mistaken, that sprite we thought was an updated version of WarGreymon was actually BlitzGreymon the whole time?

Are they available for purchase yet? I know you have to use an intermediary but the purchase button seems to be 'greyed out'/ unclickable? And cant change purchase quantity from 0.

From the news...

The 20th Anniversary Wave 2 V-Pets will be available to order at the Premium Bandai store in a little under 5 hours from now for 3,780 yen each.

Although at this point it's 3 hours.

Super disappointed about Razielmon. It never even occurred to me that the 'mon seen on the Tri5 poster was a corrupted evolution. It was really refreshing to see a female character with a more monstrous tough looking Mega Digimon, and since this means Gatomon is definitely sticking with Ophanimon that just leaves Sora and debatably Suzie with partners whose final forms aren't tough looking humanoid women. Wish they'd shake things up more...

Are the 'shikishi' boards of limited quantity? or everyone who bought gets them?

They had originally said the 'first 9000' without clarifying them when they first announced them, but as far as I'm aware this has never really been followed up on.

I've added further information to the news post though.

I see, thanks for the info. It will be nice if they decided to give everybody one though. But they made the art available online so we can always print our own anyway lol.

Also, there is this piece of info floating around that to get alphamon, we need both the 'old' and 'new' colors, as opposed to ANY two colors. How true you think this is?

You know, I've actually REALLY come around and have started to become really excited for them. I just purchased a original color Version 20th and am waiting for it to arrive. All in all, while I still do believe that a color screen would have been great (check out the latest Tamagochis), the features and ideas that they've been putting into these are absolutely inspired. The ability to select eggs, the new battle system, the shortened life cycle (bad considering they die faster, but I guess that's life?).

That being said, I'm actually really conflicted with regard to these new specially colored ones. While Omegamon is my favorite of the three featured characters, the color scheme is definitely the weakest in my opinion with the lack of panel lining, the prominent blue and the distinct lack of gold or yellow. At this point in time, Alphamon's the one I'm probably going to go for. That color scheme is gorgeous.

It's possible our translator missed that.

I did check the text as best I could, and it does mention the original color versions, but I simply don't have the translation skill to say if it's you need one of each, or if it will work with both.

I've added a small note about it until shin or garm can confirm either way.

Yeah, compared to the other two it is a bit lacklustre. I have a Red Brown V20th on the way, but I'm debating between the black and gold ones for Wave 2.

Pretty worrisome because not everyone could afford/ managed to get the original colors. Would be pretty strange and unfair if we need both the original and new colors, because omegamon can be gotten just using the original colors, and assuming the new colors have omegamon too (They wouldn't remove omegamon, would they?), then it can be gotten using any colors. Alphamon and Omegamon should be equal, so why the extra exclusivity for Alphamon?
/end rant.
