Nihon Falcom and A3 have revealed new Trails in the Sky merchandise to mark the title’s 20th anniversary in 2004. The actual anniversary day won’t arrive until June 24, 2024. However, these items are already available for pre-order on eeo Store for a limited time until around April-May 2024. Most of the merchandise will feature Joshua and Estelle Bright newly illustrated with party dresses to celebrate the major anniversary milestone.
One of the main highlights of this collection will be the wine bottles engraved with sand-blasted illustrations of the characters. The bottles will actually contain Spanish-made red wine with 13.5% alcohol. As such, sales for these bottles will be heavily regulated and restricted to people aged 20 or above.
Here is the complete list of merchandise, along with their tax-inclusive prices in Japanese yen:
- Canvas board – ￥3,850
- Set of acrylic keychain and tin badge – ￥1,430
- Acrylic stand – ￥1,815
- Smartphone stand – ￥1,760
- Acrylic art board – ￥2,750
- Memory block – ￥5,478
- Wine bottle – ￥12,650
In addition, for every 2,200 yen made for purchasing the above merchandise—excluding the memory block and wine bottles, the buyer will also receive one of the following bonus postcards at random.
The first-ever entry in The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky series appeared for PC in Japan with the subtitle Sora no Kiseki FC on June 24, 2004. This date would also mark the anniversary day of the expanded Trails metaseries, as Nihon Falcom later produced more series entries such as Trails from Zero, Trails of Cold Steel, and Trails Through Daybreak.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky 20th anniversary memory block and wine bottles will be available in July 2024. The other merchandise in the lineup will appear a month earlier in June 2024.
