Try as I may, it's not often that I get the opportunity to share something entirely new with this community since there is already such a wealth of information here in the archives. In this instance however, I think I might actually be successful. From what I've gathered, this is the letter/certificate that was mailed to recipients of the Stone Cobra after sending in the two halves of the Stone Tablet. However as I don't speak Japanese, a translation of the letter would be very welcomed because I'm mostly speculating here.

The original letter is printed on quite thin, probably rice, paper and is slightly smaller than a US Standard Letter sized paper, (A5 maybe?). There was a small tear across the Beastformers logo at the top, and due to the thin quality of the paper every small wrinkle and imperfection showed up on the scan so it took a bit of retouching before I was happy enough with it to share. There are still a number of flaws to clean up so I may get back to it eventually, but for now, enjoy! :thumbsup:

Speaking of the Stone Tablet, if anyone has the half that comes with the Sunburst Leo boxed set that they could scan and share I would really appreciate it. I have the half that came with the Fire Phoenix playset but sadly my Sunburst set came without any paperwork.

I recently asked my brother to translate this, and can now confirm that it is in fact the letter that one would receive with the Stone Cobra figure in the mail! Just a fun little piece of Beastformers history.

 

I especially love the last part where they mention returning the paid postage "due to circumstances on their end" They must have been doing well ;)

Great addition, thanks!

 

To sort of complete the story or at least add some extra files here are the front and back scans of what I believe/think is the file that had to be send out together with the two halfs of the full Stone Cobra Tablet. Not really sure about it since I got it amongst my files in which I´ve the two halfs of the tablet as well but it would be the most logic explanation for this file;

 

Attached File  IMG_20140517_191814.JPG   185.39K   28 downloadsAttached File  IMG_20140517_191849.JPG   144.28K   29 downloads

 

Maybe someone is able to translate these as well to be sure about what they are!?

 

With those translations and all the files out here I think a big part of the Stone Cobra myth is revealed but there are still a few questions remaining;

 

- Did you also get the two Tablet halfs returned after receiving the Stone Cobra or did you only get the figure and the letter mentioned in the first post of this topic in return!? 

 

- What or who is this “Youja Fuin” (Attractive Serpent Seal?) thing?

It is the seal that imprisoned the sole of Stone Cobra. At least that is what I got from the stone table pieces.

I'm sure most of us saw this but that stone cobra on YHJ sold for 56001 Yen, crazily there is now another one listed for 55000 yen buy now! If only the winner and under bidder knew there was another one going to come along so quickly!

 

Anyone know if there was a limited number of stone cobras? Or were they just mail ins and there could have been hundreds made?

The exact number of Stone Cobra is not known. It is only sure that there were 2 waves of Stone Cobra. I guess that the offer was more successfull than expected so Takara had to produce more.

I believe they're referring to the stone cobra cards randomly placed in boxes

the heat sensitive lion seal over the cobra
