The artwork originally created by Kia Asamiya as a teaser for Chapter 6 gained a new purpose as the signature image for the popup shop at Solamachi, a shopping mall at the base of the Tokyo Skytree.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

While in the vicinity, fans scouted the exact position of the teaser image and recorded it for posterity (these pics posted by Desutoria2191<\/a>)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The 1\/100 Yamato<\/em> display model, always a crowd pleaser, was installed near checkout.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pulling backward from the big model (visible in center frame), we find the merch on the left and displays on the right.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

These were derived from the social media images posted by the Yamato Production Committee in June as Chapter 6 got closer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Just past them were poster images of the pictures themselves, which (like Asamiya’s poster) formed the basis for a lot of the merch being sold here.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The overall concept (tying in with Chapter 6) was, “What if characters from 3199<\/em> visited Tokyo in 2026?”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Multiple shelves, racks, and bins! How do we sort through it all?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Some of it had been seen before, sold in theater gift shops during Chapter 6’s tenure.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Some of it also went back to previous chapters, leftover goodies still looking for a home.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The new stuff was easily identified by matching it up to the art displays. This table offered a print of Asamiya’s poster, available for preorder through the A-on Store.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Next to that (look closely) was a pair of “pullback” Yamato<\/em> toys, the type you pull backward to start up a friction motor.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

These are also A-on Store products, displayed here for preorder. Release date TBD.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
