Overview[]

They are stocked shops certain shops and the amount released are visibly counted and sold in real time. The La Victoire was the first to stock these items but they have since been stocked in other shops such as Loyal's Bazaar and Cloud 9. They were first introduced during the 2013 Black Friday Sale—and according to the announcements these items are guaranteed no direct rereleases for six months after destock.
