Another rare food-related posting on my blog ^^
After Gundam instant noodle in
late December 2007 and cup noodle in
July last year, it's time for Macross Frontier fans to see their favorite anime on the noodle packaging. ^^
Bandai Premium announces Macross Frontier special ramen set of 20 with special prizes.
Unfortunately for international fans, this is going to Bandai Premium limited item to be ordered through Bandai Premium web only. Furthermore, production is limited to just 5,000 set.
Two versions available as you can see, with some fictitious setting: Ranka Lee's version is supposedly to promote for "Macross Heavy Mecha Exhibition" (超時空重機展), while Sheryl Nome's version is sold during her concert (even though eating ramen while watching a concert is quite an unbelievable idea. ^^; Souvenir maybe). For the 20-piece set, the ratio of Ranka's ver. and Sheryl's ver. to be included is random.
The noodle and the ingredients are made by Nissin Food, the same company that brough us
Cup Noodle [Mini Gunpla Packing], and the description is really quite awesome. ^^
* Soup: The soup shows the image of the Universe, through soy sauce taste which boasts a deep and dark color. You can feel the galaxy expanding in your mouth with each taste.
* Ingredients: The sesame seeds show the innumerable stars floating in the galaxy, while the meat conveys the image of how a meteorite looks like.
* Ramen: specially made as well.
I'll never look at my cup noodle the same way as I used to after today XD
The special prize mentioned is a clear file with illustration of Sheryl Nome and Ranka Lee.
