In a significant move blending digital and physical collectibles, Animoca Brands Corporation Ltd Japanese subsidiary Animoca Japan has announced the launch of limited edition digital efigurine NFTs based on the TV anime 'Liar, Liar'.
These collectibles are set to be released in March 2024 on Weebox, the inaugural flagship store in the decentralized city, San FranTokyo.
San FranTokyo, steered by KLKTN, is conceptualised as a decentralized city entrenched in licensed anime and Web3 intellectual property.
It aims to redefine the intersection of digital and physical collectibles, media, gaming and fashion within the realm of anime culture.
About the NFT
The anime, 'Liar, Liar', originally penned by Haruki Kuou and published by KADOKAWA, featuring character designs by konomi (kinokonomi) and Funa Yukina, debuted on Crunchyroll in July 2023.
It quickly garnered a substantial international fan base. The forthcoming NFT drop will feature efigurines of popular characters like Himeji Shirayuki, Saionji Sarasa, and Shiina Tsumugi, with each NFT linked to a corresponding physical figurine through a Physical Backed Token (PBT).
This novel Ethereum token standard connects a digital token with a tangible item, offering a unique digi-physical experience for collectors.
These efigurine NFTs, restricted to 1,000 units per character, provide the holders with rights to claim their physical counterparts during a specified window on Weebox, with further details pending. Prices and additional availability information will be announced on the Weebox website.
