Final Fantasy Potions Hitting The Shelves In Japan
Posted by William on Wednesday, July 18th, 2007 at 5:28 am under Final Fantasy
The 10th anniversary of Final Fantasy VII is just around the corner and we have already seen many items showing up on the web to help celebrate one of the greatest video games of all time. FF VII is the game that got me into RPGs in the first place, so I definitely have some fond memories. I’d feel a little weird purchasing this particular item, but I am sure some people out here would love it.
From PSPHyper: The FFVII 10th anniversary celebration continues with this Final Fantasy VII 10th Anniversary Potion straight out of Shinra Inc, or rather premium maker Suntory in Japan. Just like the Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII special PSP bundle, there will only be 77,777 bottles of these and it sets to come out on September 13th, when Crisis Core went on sale. I am not sure what effect the potion, said to contain Vitamin B1 will have on you, but the detail is on the official site if you read Japanese. The price? 3,980 Yen tax inclusive or around US$32.
The potion will be pack in a classy looking white packaging which also include a book called FINAL FANTASY VII 10th ANNIVERSARY ULTIMANIA, covering every title in the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII.

I'm confused. Does the potion come with the game? Why so expensive just for a book and a potion that taste probably horrible?
It better come with a game. Cause I want the bottle, lol.

I think the potion and book are separate.

Is there anyway that US and European fans can purchase this?

Claire, I'd normally suggest play-asia.com but it looks like they are sold out. I see tons of commercial Japanese sites selling it, but I don't read the language unfortunately. I'll try to keep an eye out and will drop a link if I find anything.
If you really want one, I guess you can try searching "Final Fantasy VII 10th Anniversary Potion". I've tried that and can only find places that are either sold out or in a foreign language.

As for the one mentioned in this article, Ebay is your only option…expect to pay $100+ for it as well.
