Sega is going to release a PANZER DRAGOON DELUXE PACK of its Sega Ages release which will come with its own music box!

Wow, that’s… somewhat random! Nice find.
EDIT: Source page is here, and it says it comes with some sort of badge too. Sounds like the “deluxe” pack will only be available through the Sega Direct site, though (do they even ship international? Considering I’m determined to buy this game anyway, I’d prefer to have it with quirky promotional junk if possible…)
Holy Sh8t,
I’m all over that , Sold, sold and sold :).
BTW great find Goonboy 
Wow!I wonder what it plays…
The humourously mutilated BabelFish translation implies that it’s the “main theme”, which I suspect means the title screen music…
I wish I could get my hands on that.
yeah would would it play- I wonder if it is PD title theme- although I don’t know how well any panzer music fits a tin-y sharp music box sound.
Wow that looks great!
Play - Asia have had the other Sega Ages special editions in so I guess they will also get some of these - it’s not listed on their site yet though.
Wow thats pretty random. I might just have to grab that for the music box even though I don’t have a ps2. Still I guess I could play it on an emulator in a bit or something…

Not really a random find since i regularly visit Sega Direct(best place obviously for Sega collectable goodies) which is where i got the image from. I should have posted the actual page but i was too excited(and in a rush) i just got the pic instead.
i was infact hoping it would play the theme of Episode 1 which is my fave track of PANZER DRAGOON let alone video game music EVER!
Oh I wasn’t saying “random find”, I meant that it was a nice find and it’s a surprisingly random item (a bonus crank-up music box seems fairly random to me, at least). I’ve been keeping an eye out for Sega Ages PD info myself, but hadn’t started checking SegaDirect yet becuase I doubted anything would be there until closer to release; I wasn’t expecting a “special edition” release of a relatively low-profile game like this either, so it’s a pleasant surprise.
That’s good to hear, I haven’t actually bought from Play-Asia before but I’ll be sure to keep an eye on whether they get this in…
Grumbler want 
.
Now a music box that plays the PDZwei main theme or “Ecce Valde Generous Ale”, I’d be all over that one. =D
Pre-orderd mine, It aslo comes with a Pazner Dragoon badge (much like of ofthe ages stuff)
Well you should its the best source for Sega memorbilia which i always keep an eye out for so it was rarely a random thing since i was expecting some freeby with the Sega Ages titles. PANZER DRAGOON SEGA AGES title is hardly a low profile game. Its quite an estabilshed and popular series in Japan especially now that the series has turned in to a celebration of Sega’s past rather than a remake. All the major Sega Ages titles get some merchandise with it like the SPACE HARRIER 20TH anniversary Tshirt that was released when SPACE HARRIER 2 COMPLETE as well as badges for various games.
I’m hoping for some amends on GOLDEN AXE after that horrible remake before. The Sega Ages will come into its own when classic arcade games that never got ported to console like REVENGE OF DEATH ADDER become part of the series.
Ok, I’ve never imported anything from Japan, and more imprtantly don’t speak or read the language at all, but I’m seriously considering ordering this thing. Any tips on how I might do so in a relatively safe fashion? Thanks.
What site did you order it from, TA? If anyone has it up for order already I’ll head there too…
It’s a graphically enhanced port of an eleven-year-old game that’s not going to be given a release outside of Japan. There was a playable demo of it at last year’s Tokyo Game Show that only one website was interested enough to post images of. Surely it’s the very definition of low profile? 
However, I didn’t know it was normal for Sega Ages games to get promotional items. Though a music box still surprises me more than a T-Shirt would…
I quite liked the Decathelete Collection toothbrush, towel and mug set myself 
Am I the only one who thinks this item is totally ugly? I’m pretty sure I could make a musik box better myself and even decide on the music it would play.
