RX-7 owners of japan, I need your help!

Quite possibly the dumbest post in the far east section, but here goes. I want to import a case of the Rockman E Can Drink thats for sale in japan.



I can't find any websites that sell it, and I'm certainly not going to find it at the mobil gas station. So I'm looking for some one to ship me a case of this stuff from japan to the US, whom ever steps up will be compensated via paypal.

It appears it is only sold in a couple places which means it is probably sold in places like Akihabara. One of the places it is sold is called animaito and the other is called gamers. It says the price is 137 yen per can but then I found one can selling on yahoo auctions for 1100 yen which is over 10 bucks!!!

I will see if anyone I know is going to be in the akihabara area anytime soon and wants to make some spare change.

What in the world do you want this for anyhow hahaha?

I've never seen this here in Shizuoka. I guess as Circuit Theroy that this thing must be sold only in Tokyo, maybe in specific areas only. A pure product of choice for japanese geeks... hahaha.

If I see some in a convenient store, I'll take one for you

Had you posted this a couple days earlier I could have gone and checked in akihabera but I already returned home.

Personally I want to find a place to get Mitsuya Cider or Calpis Soda in America.

Mitsuya cider and calpis soda can be found in the states fairly easily if you have a japanese supermarket near you and if not quite a few of the Japanese supermarkets have online stores or will ship items to customers.

Good to know! The only downside is I can't walk outside and find a vending machine within my general vicinity.

Not to thread jack I found some online stores that sell Mitsuya Cider, but nothing for Calpis soda, just calpis water. I bet if I ask for the soda though they can get it.

Long story short, I've been playing megaman for the past 15 years, and when I came across this I knew I had to get my hands on it. Even if it's some crappy asian energy drink inside, it's still FTW!

Fair enough.

I think you have about 4 or 5 people over here on the look out for it myself included.

Hopefully someone will spot it soon hahaha cause I dont think it will last hahaha.
