Our prediction was correct as Medicom again made announcement and confirmed the online release of KAWS COMPANION OPEN EDITION / KAWS COMPANION ( FLAYED) OPEN EDITION BUT, a pretty big but it’s for Japan residents only so time to call all the friends and family you know.
Like we said before all is not doom and gloom for collectors who missed out on the first release. Medicom usually provide a very limited release outside of Japan so keep a look out for updated info here and we will announce when an offical release statement will come to light.
